The Pilgrimage
Liann
(Meet two travelling pilgrims)
Sir Roderic
Well met, traveler. Have you heard the call of the Prophet? Do you walk the Pilgrim's Way?
Yes. I seek the Nine Wayshrines.
As do I. Perhaps we can share the road, as long as our paths lie together.
I have taken up the Prophet's call to defend the Faith. Only a true knight wielding the Crusader's Relics can stop the evil that now threatens us. I walk the Pilgrim's Way, as did the questing knights of old. I would be glad of your company on the road, if your way lies with mine.
So you believe what the Prophet says?
You have heard him. Like me, you know he speaks the truth. If the Nine will it, I will be the one to recover the Crusader's Relics. Or, perhaps that honor will fall to you.
Lathon
I am Lathon, squire to Sir Roderic of Wayrest. We are on a holy quest for the Crusader's Relics!
Surely you've heard the stories of the Quest for the Crusader's Relics? Only a true knight can find them -- or even wield them. Sir Roderic will surely succeed, if anyone can.
What can you tell me about Sir Roderic?
Sir Roderic is a famous knight of Wayrest, in High Rock. He is too modest to tell you himself, but he was a hero of the War of the Bend'r-Mahk.

(Receive a vision of Pelinal upon praying at last shrine of the Pilgrimage)
Pelinal
Hail knight! You seek my Relics with a worthy heart! Your prayers have woken me from my endless dream. Or perhaps you have entered my dream, and I still sleep. I think others have sometimes spoken to me, others like you, but my memory is doubtful. Perhaps the others came after you. Your need must be great for the gods to allow us to speak. Has Umaril the Accursed found a way back? The foulest of a foul race. A thousand curses upon his unholy name! I thought I'd won. But I should have known. The Slavemasters are a cunning breed. Umaril found a way to cheat death, as I could not. If you would seek for my Relics, I know little that can help you. All that has passed since my death is like mist that my mind cannot take hold of. My friends built a shrine upon the site of my death, where the Elves tormented me in a final act of revenge. I can show you where it once stood. Perhaps it is there still.
Fare thee well, sir knight. May the gods grant you to destroy Umaril utterly, as I failed to do.
