★I need to craft a trap at my forge. One trap should be enough to capture a handful of the fuzzy creatures.
★Craft a Trap
★"Traps -- they're the only way to stop the Chinchillas without risking life and limb."
★Craft 5 Traps
★"Two more traps to address any potential Chinchilla issues."
★Create 2 Traps
★How can the caged Chinchillas help SimTitle0?
★What should SimTitle0 do?
★"I can sell the Chinchillas to pay back the debt to the hunters!"
★"That's a good price. Drown away!"
★"These things are better than any guard dog! I'll threaten the hunters."
★"Even these creatures don't deserve a fate like that. I'll release them into the forest."
★Someone is coming... I can feel it.
★Wait for someone...
★Alright, SimFirstName0, give me time to set and collect the traps. I'll meet you back at the smithy in a few hours.
★Whew, barely escaped with the trap and myself intact. This is quite a grand collection of furs however, I can use sell these for quite a profit.
★Trapping may be a safer approach, but it is more time consuming. I should find something to occupy my time while waiting for the Chinchillas to be caught.
★I'm going to free these little beasties in the forest and be done with it.
★SimFirstName0! Your traps worked great! Here, I've left two of the monsters for you. Use them as you see fit!
★I can't let these creatures be killed so inhumanely. I'm going to release them and raise the money myself.
★By now that trap should have snapped up a few of the critters. I'm wary of another excursion, but I need to collect those Chinchillas.
★Fantastic, these traps look great. I should set a few in the forest, but should be careful not to disturb any Dire Chinchilla.
★News has spread that a group of Dire Chinchillas have moved into the nearby forest, and now every hunter in the area has come to hunt the beasts.
★I wonder what that was supposed to mean? Oh well, that's taken care of.
★No one is going to mess with me if I have these monsters with me. Time to tell those hunters to take a hike.
★This'll do nicely. Next time, keep to smithing and leave the hunting to the hunters.
★I've got all the gold I need. Time to pay the hunters a visit.
★By The Watcher, these creatures are extremely vicious. This gives me an idea...
★I wouldn't be caught dead hunting those beasts. However, I do know how to make a mean Chinchilla trap. Perhaps I can make some Simoles without risking life and limb.
★I don't care what happens to the little monsters, I just want them out of my life.
★By The Watcher, is that a Dire Chinchilla? Fine buddy, we'll leave you alone. You've got bigger problems than hunters now. Good luck.
★You've done well. Come on, little chinchillas, let's go for a swim...
★These beasts have got to be worth something. I'll sell them quickly... but to whom?
★Listen, you've taken good pelts away from us real hunters with your traps. You're going to need to pay us money, GOOD money, for the pelts we won't get because of you. Expect us back soon.
★Uh oh, looks like I've angered the hunters sent to kill the Chinchillas. They look like they mean business...I should probably find some way to appease them.
★Looking to sell already, eh? Not a bad decision. I sold mine to a chinchilla "enthusiast" near the docks. If you're quick perhaps you can meet with him.
★Gads, suddenly there are three chinchillas? How is that even possible? They're in separate cages!!
★These are high quality traps! Much better than my worthless pieces of junk from Crafthole. I'll tell you what: I will set and collect these traps for you for free if you let me keep the chinchillas for skinning.
★He must mean the myth of chinchillas' rapid reproduction. I'd better get these things off my hands before I have my very own Dire Chinchilla disaster, but who would possibly buy them?
★The traps are made, but still need to be set. I'm not sure I really want to stick my neck into those woods, though.
★A colony of Dire Chinchillas was wreaking havoc on the edge of town. Hunters had been unsuccessfully risking their lives in an attempt to clear the forest of the dangerous creatures. Only the town blacksmith saw the folly in pitting soft, meaty humans against those fuzzy little destruction engines."It's up to me," she said to herself, "I'll have to use my superior crafting skills to put an end to this madness."
★Terrifying creatures indeed, I narrowly escaped with my life. I was able to set the trap just before being ambushed by the horde.
★More chinchillas? Fantastic, I was about to drown this lot. Oh, you didn't know? Yeah, I kill 'chillas. There are humane ways to do it, but this is way more fun.I'm paying 100 Simoles per chinchilla. Interested?
★I'll look foolish if the trapper returns and I don't have any way to contain the chinchillas.
★I hope I don't come to regret that charity...
★I hope I don't come to regret that little bit of charity... Now time to make enough money to pay back the hunters.
★"Now I need to make back the money I owe the hunters."
★Have 200 Simoles
★"Chinchillas Can't Repel Traps of this Magnitude!"
★I need to venture into the forest once more to collect my trap.
★Collect Trap at the Forest
★"I'd rather these chinchillas be free than drowned by that madman."
★Release Chinchillas at the Forest
★I should head to the forest to set the trap.
★Set Trap at the Forest
★"Jerks! I'm saving their lives. Still, if I want to live to an old age it would be wise to make some extra gold."
★Make Money
★I should continue my blacksmith duties until the trap has had a chance to catch some Chinchillas.
★Wait for Chinchilla Trap
★Return to Smithy and Continue Duties
★The threat of the Dire Chinchillas would have to be eliminated, yes, but was there a more clever solution? Some way to remove them without risking one's own life and limb?
★A colony of Dire Chinchillas had taken up residence in the forest outside of town. Dire Chinchillas were known for their intense ferocity as well as their incredibly soft, velvety fur. Either way it meant somebody would be killing a lot of chinchillas.
★Fur
★Bake Sale for Famine
★Private Function
★Word has reached the Kingdom of trouble brewing in the culinary capitol of Gastrobury. The famous food festival, renowned throughout the lands, is in danger of being cancelled! The lord-chefs have apparently sent a plea for aid to sponsor their national holiday. Assisting in this would certainly strengthen ties and secure a valuable and skilled ally.
★What better way to raise awareness and support for a good cause than to hold a Kingdom-wide bake sale? Brew, bake and craft your best dishes for charity! The profits from all the delicious delicacies can be sent to Gastrobury to buy food for their festival.
★An official missive awaited SimTitle0 as she left the royal apartment. Gently breaking the outlandish waxen seal, the Monarch pored over the ornate script twice: Salutations, SimTitle0I request a private audience with Your Highness. I have traveled great lengths to reach your charming little Kingdom, with a matter of grave importance to my people. I await your council, at the earliest possible convenience.In good health and comfort,SimTitle1
★A letter affixed with the Royal seal arrived to SimTitle0, who knew better than to ignore an official summons. Setting aside her erudite pursuits, she read the short note: SimTitle0,       Your presence is requested immediately in the royal keep. A matter of both urgency and delicacy requires your specialized attention. We will describe the situation in detail only in person. Your Liege,SimTitle1
★Only the upper crust of Gastrobury may attend.
★A comprehensive list of illusions needed for the feast:- Illusions of taste- Illusions of scent- Illusions of vision- Illusions of presence in stomach- The illusion of home cooking- A dash of spice illusion
★A complete guide to illusory food, from appetizing apparitions to wraithly wraps.
★3 Stacks of 100 royal invitations to Gastro-Fest, hosted in TownName. Each is written in wine, sealed with Brie, and handled with a plump, tender heart.

★"The servant has a role in this, too."
★ SimTitle2 is on her way. If I play my cards right, maybe we can gain support from Gastrobury.
★"If our guests laugh hard enough, could they choke on imaginary food?"
★"This place is dirty! I like to have it cleaned at least once a year."
★"Wizards, wizards, wizards. I expect a lot from them."
★Get Ingredients for Imaginary Meals

★"After hearing about 'illusions' from another wizard, I can't get my mind off them. I must know more!"
★"It'll be laced with SimTitle3's Make-Believe Serum."
★"Let's see if this experimental serum really works."
★"Hopefully, this serum will be a form of liquefied illusion, so to speak. Adding it to food should create a near limitless supply of that food... imaginary food, of course."
★"These fine dishes will have our guests convinced that they're actually eating: Feast Bread from the Oven, Seafood Stew from the Fireplace and Spiced Venison off the Spit."
★Acquire some Spiced Venison, Feast Bread, and Seafood Stew

★"Should I send these myself, like a peasant, or have my servant do the work?"
★How should SimTitle0 devise a plan?
★Ask servant to make imaginary meals.

★Your Highness, this is a great chance to bolster relations with Gastrobury. Their crisis is our opportunity. Might I humbly suggest inviting their leadership to TownName for the holiday feast? Thus their tradition is somewhat preserved!
★While my staff prepares the castle and SimTitle1 deduces a viable magical plan, I shall present the offer to SimTitle2 and request a proper invite list of esteemed personages.

★Craft a few draughts of "Make-Believe Serum"
★Craft a dose of "Experimental Serum"
★Have "Phantom Gruel" in inventory
★Get a Digestive Wine
★Yes, illusions as tantalizing as this inspiration are my goal. A drop of my experimental serum into the cooking pot should produce an excess of ghostly gruel that smells and tastes like the real thing!
★Done! I know how to craft the proper formula now! But this new magic is unstable at best and requires quality ingredients.
★Use these to make Digestive Wine for our foreign guests, and also for the meals. This will prime them for when I cast a powerful illusion over them. SimTitle2 has more to properly augment the food you prepare, duplicating the feast for those that are affected by my spell.
★Discreetly passing a bubbling vial, SimTitle0 quietly instructed SimTitle1 on the proper application of the Make-Believe Serum: Here is the solution. Your Majesty must add a drop of this to a cask and have our foreign guests drink from the brew. This will prime them for when I cast a powerful illusion over them. A second bottle has been given to SimTitle2 to properly augment your meal, duplicating the feast for those that are affected by my spell.
★SimTitle2 wants the banquet to be perfect. As such, Her Majesty will prepare a list of special delicacies, as well as a rare extract, prized by our Gastrobury guest. Take these bottles and add a small spoonful to the cooking pots.
★I'm ready to conduct an experimental run with my illusions. Theory will only take me so far.
★I may have an idea that will not tax our food surplus at all, Your Majesty. I have recently been theorizing a new type of magic: illusions. I need time to perfect my hypotheses, but I feel you'll be happy with the results.
★"Illusions," you say? Hmm, that's exactly what we need! Make it so.
★Devise Illusionary Formula at Archives
★Perfect the Illusory Serum Formula (at Archives)
★Make Some Food at the Fireplace

★In the end, Gastrofest WAS bust. Without the week-long gorge-o-rama, the impact on Gastrobury's people was devestating. Pants sizes dropped to an all-time low. Some of the citizens, in desperation, turned to broccoli. As long as they were eating something -- anything -- they just didn't care.It was a dark time. Gastrobury's loyalty to TownName was a long way off.
★What a delicious success! TownName's townsfolk and their stomachs all applaud SimTitle0 and SimTitle1's victory in securing Gastrobury as an ally.
★Drinks? Let's go!
★Of course I'll entertain. I pair well with a good make-believe feast! And if you don't hear laughs, it's because those are invisible, Highness. Ha ha!
★You've done a fine job, SimTitle1. Leave the preparation of the imaginary food to me.
★How dreadful! Give me some time, SimTitle1, and I'll work out a strategy to help you.
★It also says:  "Tip: Try waking up your friends by creating an illusion of a blood-thirsty dragon in their bedroom while they sleep. Make sure a chamberpot is at hand."Ha ha! Nice.
★Ha ha! Nice.
★I love it! But I need to figure out how to make our food last. Perhaps we could use magical trickery?
★Maybe I should insert some crackling pig into each letter? No... they wouldn't fit in the mail, would they? How silly of me.
★It says: "Illusions are created by inducing interference patterns via flux modulation in another's neural receptors for the five senses."
★Hmm, that sounds simple enough.
★This is more fascinating and invigorating than the time I went bobbing for electric eels!
★...and flanked by hungry festival attendees here...
★The magic of this spell is fierce! It will be like the guests are each devouring an entire suckling mammoth!
★Mmm... delicious! Do you smell that? Smells like sausage-stuffed pheasant!
★Okay, got a bunch in that batch... but I need a few more.
★SimTitle1 should have finished the imaginary food preparations by now. Time to pick it all up.
★Off Dancer!
★Thank you!
★My mind is a fortress of supreme knowledge. I'll use a strategy table as a conduit to the matter at hand.
★One last step for me... the food!
★What else are servants for? I'll have her make the imaginary meals.
★I need this done right, and I can't trust anyone but myself.
★I can see it now... all the lovely gravy. Gravy everywhere! It's all over me! So warm and tasty!
★Off Blitzkrieg!... She's always been my favorite. Hmm... Looks like that's the last of the invitations.
★Where'd all this food come from? IT LOOKS AMAZING!
★Off Donner!
★I know: we'll host Gastro-Fest! I'll suggest inviting Gastrobury's leadership to TownName for the holiday feast! The strategy is undefeatable. But our food stores will be at risk. Maybe we can employ some old-fashioned magic!
★My brain is almost full!... Haha, just kidding. I crack myself up.
★I think I exaggerated a bit when I wrote that we'd fill our wells with lardons and pheasant. But it sounds so delicious!
★THIS ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH!
★I need to perfect the serum...
★Alcohol is my favorite!
★I know, I'll seal these letters with Brie instead of with wax! How festive!
★SimTitle1 once told me she could solve ANY problem. Even the unsolvable!
★Whoops... that's an "a" not a "9"... so many symbols...
★A drink? You don't even have to ask, my friend. Of course I will.
★You are too kind, SimTitle0.
★My experimental serum shines like the light of the sun!
★You know, I suddenly got a really, REALLY good feeling about this year's banquet!
★Hmmm. Yes&  this may just work. If I use the proper catalyst here, and an exemplar serving as the source...
★Yum! This is going to be a wonderful Gastro-Fest!
★I can feel SimTitle1's magical presence here! Time for a talk with her.
★As you wish. I will make sure the pigeons don't eat the Brie seals on these invitations.
★Another good batch! Lots more potions! Now to get these into the proper hands.
★Do I want wine? Well, do my armpits smell like burnt toads? Of course I'll have a drink!
★There you go. It's more than enough, but don't waste it!
★I'll just pretend these are fine meats... and then I push them there...
★These "Illusions" might come in useful...
★All right! I've got all the food. Now it's just up to SimTitle1 to come through with her powerful illusion magic to augment these imaginary meals.
★Yes, Your Highness. I'll be back in an hour with your food.
★Time to roll up my sleeves and slave over this cauldron, because - get ready ladies and gents - we're cooking with magic!
★My imagination is far more delicious than any four-course meal...well, except unicornicopia--it has three types of mystical meats!

★The lord-chefs of Gastrobury have sent a plea for aid to sponsor their national holiday of binge eating. Assist them to secure their nation as a valuable and tasty ally.
★Location:Gastrobury (Scouted),and the Reception Hall-------------------------------------Primary Hero:Monarch-------------------------------------Supporting Role:Wizard
★Gastro-Fest, an annual feast of gastronomic delicacies held in the culinary province of Gastrobury, was in danger. There was not enough of a surplus in food to support an entire week of binge-eating, and the festival threatened to cast the province into famine. The Gastronauts could be powerful allies to TownName... it would be a shame to let them starve.

★No no no, you want to inspire the army to attack, not to surrender. Come on now, try again.
★For SimTitle0, an idle mind was a dangerous thing. She yearned to express herself, and it had been far too long since she had put on a really satisfactory play."I must create!!" she cried.
★The... finest performance I've ever seen. Truly, she is the legendary bard the seer foretold, and she has found her muse in you, SimTitle0. Now, we must decide her ultimate fate. Please speak with me.
★You have proven your worth splendidly! I will report to SimTitle0 in the tavern. Please come and see us later.
★Hail, SimTitle0! I am SimTitle1. So you've never heard of a Battle Bard? That's because I'm one of a kind! I use my songs and plays to inspire hearts in battle. Of course, I don't do much 'actual' battling, but...
★Me? Perform a play? With you? On stage? But I've never performed before.... but I must!! Okay, you talked me into it! I'll do it!
★Brava! Please, bard, may we have a moment of your time down here?
★Now to find SimTitle0.
★Indeed there is one final task, and it is a challenging one. You remember SimTitle2, I'm sure? Our most mysterious member, she was prophesied to be the most influential bard of this age, though she possesses no discernible talent. Your task is to become her muse; coax the art from within her.
★That's it! You feel that? Like all the blood's about to explode out of your heart?! Now, PLAY!!!
★You look like you could use a little inspiration, and I know just the poem.
★Breathtaking! The nature of war illustrated by a conflict between two brothers! What an incredibly original idea!
★You understand the heart of art better than any other bart. ...I mean, bard.
★I'm quite pleased that you are considering joining our guild. To gain MY approval you must read me poems of many different styles.
★YEARRRRRRRRRGH!!! Now that's a warrior's song! I am pleased. Meet me and SimTitle0 later in the tavern.
★You've never seen battle, have ya? I've seen things, let me tell you. You need to experience the thrill of war before you can inspire a warrior! Come at me!
★Please, I want to hear your muses at work. Write a poem for me.
★SimFirstName0, you should know that young SimFirstName1 was not the only Bard named in the seer's prophecy. There was also a legendary muse, the one that would inspire our Songstress to become the Great Bard.I believe that muse is you, SimFirstName0. I propose this to you: will you keep SimTitle1 here with you, to act, sing, and learn under your guidance until she is ready to spread her gift throughout the world?
★I am known as SimFirstName1: the Superior Songstress of the Bard's Guild. I am not quite sure what SimFirstName2 has told you about me, so I'll stay quiet for now. Please speak with me later, if you wish.
★A wonderful play! Some interesting fellows have come into the Tavern recently; I should ask one of them to perform it with me.
★You look like you could use a pick-me-up, and I know just the song.
★This truly is some of my finest art. What a wonderful tribute to my inspirations!
★Most disappointing, SimFirstName0, but if you have doubts, then you are not the legendary muse. Nonetheless, you have earned your place in the Bard's Guild. Please accept my personal Lute as a gift for helping our Songstress take her first steps into art. I only hope that her true muse can be found someday...
★So SimFirstName0 told you, huh? You don't know what it's like, when everyone around you expects these great things and you can't deliver. It's terrifying! I don't know the first thing about being a bard. I never asked for this!!
★So you'll join? I'm sure you'll fit right in, but our bylaws state that you must be accepted by each member of the Guild. Find them and speak to them. Can't argue with bylaws!
★I hope this poem makes the cut.
★It is finished!! Now to recruit the Superior Songstress.
★Now to perform my epic poem for her!
★I am SimTitle1, Grand Poemsmith of the Bard's Guild. SimTitle2 and I started the Guild together. We began as a small circle of actors in Yacothia but quickly expanded. Now we have come for you.
★Beautiful things? Like what?
★A bizarre bunch to be sure, but intriguing nonetheless. I should speak with SimTitle0 again.
★Terrible things? What kinds of things?
★Simply gorgeous... your words dance, and they come to life, and they are young love!!
★You truly are the legendary muse. The girl will stay with you and learn proper barding. We accept you as a member of the Bard's Guild and bestow upon you the title of Master of Euphony. I also gift upon you my personal lute. May it brighten the hearts of you and SimFirstName1 for all of your days and more.
★That was... beautiful. How do you do it? What is your muse?
★Are you prepared to impress me, the one and only Battle Bard?! Play a song that would inspire even the greatest of warriors!
★Salutations, SimFirstName0! I am SimTitle1 and this is my merry guild of bards. We have traveled far to see you! Your songs, plays, and poems are known throughout the land. Please, would you hear our story?
★Such intensity, such passion! Oh, to write a performance like that, or even just be part of one!
★"Guilds brighten the hearts of the people!"
★"Hopefully this song will dispel some of her gloom."
★Perform a Song
★"The Battle Bard wishes me to play a rousing song for him... not sure what that means, but here goes."
★"Okay, let's see how he likes this one..."
★"Apparently I understand the thrill of war now? Here goes nothing."
★Play a Song
★Writing a play is quite a calming, yet exciting, experience.
★Write Play at Archives
★"I think I'll choose that man to be in my play -- he has an air of drama about him."

★Living in TownName meant that fate could change the course of your life drastically at almost any time. The best one could hope for was to stay alert, see what came, and respond accordingly.SimTitle0 was approached by a guild and asked to join. She considered the two paths branching from that point in time and she made a choice. Whether it was the "right" choice was a difficult thing to measure, but SimTitle0 was certainly enjoying her rewards. Ultimately, she was confident that she had acted in her best interests at the time. What else could she do?
★Primary Hero:"  Knight (Lv5+)
★"Your organization seems noble. I'm in."
★"I've seen enough, I'm in."
★"Because its leader is an old fool! Only I shall lead!!"
★"A steeled defense is the best choice for your style. I'm a master in it; let me teach you."
★"The promise in your young recruit has won me over. I'm in."
★"Your guild interests me, but I'm not sure yet."
★"You have shown me great fighters, but I'm still unsure."
★"Guilds just aren't my style. My responsibility is to TownName only."
★"The furious onslaught stance would suit your style best. I'm a master in it; let me teach you."
★"You have heart, but that's not enough. I'm out."
★An interesting organization, sure, but what do they want with me?
★I've never improved so much in such a short time. You're a fantastic teacher! The Lord Knight is going to be blown away.
★I used to be a... sought-after member of the Aarbyville meat trade. When you're in the trade, you have to learn to defend yourself or you die. SimTitle0 picked me up on the outskirts of Aarbyville after I attempted an escape. He saw potential.
★I have... fallen...
★I cannot say I'm not disappointed. You showed such potential in both your combat and teachings. At least accept some gold as compensation for your training of the boy.
★The thing to remember when fighting in a steeled defense stance is to watch your opponent, always always always. Don't think about your blade, think about theirs.
★I... I won? Talk about a lucky fight!
★You challenge me?! I will show you how I became the Lord Knight of the Fighters Guild!!
★Truly worthy fighting. Now show me everything you've got!
★Don't feel bad, I'm one of the most accomplished fighters in the Guild.
★I lost... but something felt different. You were playing to my style, weren't you?
★Hmmm, this letter is from a group of warriors starting a Fighter's Guild. Apparently they want to add my strength to their ranks. They are waiting for me in the town square right now...
★You're... so fast.
★A truly worthy fighter. You fought well, even after fighting all my guildsmen.
★Swordfighting isn't my specialty anyway...
★I've already heard the news. The improvement by SimTitle0 is stunning! We can't thank you enough.
★I'm glad you deem us worthy! And now for the initiation... of combat! Prove your fighter's spirit to us! Starting with our new recruit here!
★A masterful move!
★"A truly devastating blow!"
★We wish to incorporate you into our Guild. You need not leave your town, nor pay fees to join. We only call upon you to help train our initiates. There are benefits to joining, but we can get to those once you've decided.
★When fighting in the furious onslaught stance, you must feel your anger pushing your sword. Your rage flows through you and gives you strength.
★There, now you're getting it! Just like that, SimFirstName0.
★Your sword is mine!
★Your armor is mine!
★You had so much potential, but you are not worthy.
★Amazing, I won! You fought differently, didn't you? Playing to my style?
★Might as well start at the beginning: some basic training to see what SimFirstName0 knows.
★Now that you have proven yourself in combat, we ask you to help teach our members. I'm sending along SimTitle0 to your barracks to study the basics of fighting.
★A man was in town this morning, looking for you. He left this message!
★An impressive blow!
★You have passed the tests. I officially welcome you as a member of the Fighters Guild and bestow upon you the title of Berserker of the Fighters Guild. For your mastery of the offensive arts of battle, I also bestow upon you this heirloom sword, passed down for generations in my family. May it cut a swath of destruction for you always.
★I am SimTitle0, master pugilist from Crafthole. The Guild sought me out once, just as they've done with you. SimFirstName1, consider the Lord Knight's offer. Traveling and training is a dream for fighters such as us!
★It's important to move with your enemy. To flow with them. Once you see the flow, you'll never be hit again. Try it now.
★I am SimFirstName1, the Leader and Lord Knight of the Fighters Guild, founded in Advorton. Our growing band seeks strong and skilled women like you to learn from. Why not speak with our members and judge our worth for yourself?
★A fantastic fighter! What a blast!
★Still not convinced, eh? While you consider, will you at least impart some of your wisdom to us? I'm sending along SimTitle0 to your barracks to study the basics of fighting. Won't you help her?
★You have bested even me, the Lord Knight! And after fighting all of my guildmates! I have never fought a more worthy opponent!
★"Stop trying to hit me and hit me!"
★Fantastic! Now that you have proven yourself in combat, we ask you to help teach our members. I'm sending along SimTitle0 to your barracks to study the basics of fighting.
★You have passed the tests. I officially welcome you as a member of the Fighters Guild and bestow upon you the title of Defender of the Fighters Guild. For your mastery of the defensive arts of battle, I also bestow upon you this heirloom piece of armor, passed down for generations in my family. May it protect you always.
★This stance draws heavily from your stamina, and counts on putting down your opponent quickly.
★I ask you again, SimTitle0, will you join us?
★Such a bizarre combat style. Where did this kid learn to fight anyway?
★But... but why?! You're a fantastic fighter, a gifted teacher. You have potential to be the next Lord Knight at this rate!
★Really? You'll teach me? If I learned to fight like you, I'd pass my Knight training in no time!
★The town crier had received an important and private message, to be relayed only to SimTitle0. Of course, since it was entrusted to the town crier, all of TownName knew about it.  The knight figured she should hear the message for herself.
★An amazing fighter... I'm blown away.
★Oh, hi! I'm SimFirstName1. I was once a lowly scullion in our castle in Advorton, until SimTitle2 caught me in a scrape with a few boys in our castle. He'd never seen a fighter move so nimbly, especially against multiple opponents. I've been with him ever since. I wholly recommend you listen to his offer!
★I am only SimFirstName0, merely a Blade in the Fighters Guild -- our lowest rank. The Lord Knight roused me this morning to come here. I'm still not sure why...
★Ack! Such swirling!!
★You've passed our test, you're now an official member of our guild. I bestow upon you the special rank of...
★Ah, you wish to judge our strength before you join. I can respect that! Come, then! Test us in combat, starting with our new recruit here!

★"The boy will stay with me, so I can look after the growth of his magic."
★"I will keep it. It is the only way to keep everyone safe."
★"My magic originates from my desire to help those in need."
★"I do not wish to join your guild, though the boy intrigues me..."
★"The soul is rightfully his, but action must be taken to protect us all from it."
★"The boy must leave this town, never to bring his dangerous magic to TownName again."
★"My magic comes from my desire to cause destruction."
★We respect your decision, though I regret that we may not be able to care for the boy as well as you could have. We will leave the town and take the boy with us.
★Very well. I've sent SimFirstName0 along to your tower. SimFirstName1 and SimFirstName2 have requested to be present as well, out of curiosity.
★My name is SimFirstName0 and I'm one of the original members of the Mages Guild. SimTitle1 and I transformed the Guild from a small meeting of minds to a congregation crossing boundaries and borders, changing lives in the process.
★I should warn the boy of what's coming, so he will understand the danger.
★As I thought... I need to be very careful with how I proceed.
★The magic has been restrained! But did my spell do too much damage? I must act quickly!
★It didn't work! Mages, I need support. Channel your energies now!
★I should ask the boy if he's aware of the source of his power. It's possible that he has no clue at all, which could be even more dangerous.
★I understand the risks, SimTitle1, but I must find a way to connect to my magical source. Let's proceed.
★A great magical aura surrounds the elder woman in the robes. I should speak with her.
★The boy's darkness has awakened, hasn't it?! We must stop him before it gets out of control! I will meditate and shield you from here, SimFirstName0. Get back there and stop his power!
★Right!
★It's best if I just surprise him so he will react naturally.
★You stopped the boy's trance... by striking off a sliver of his soul? That must have been his source. But what will you do with it now?
★It's regrettable, but you are right: the boy is too dangerous. SimTitle0 will remain with us in the Guild, and he will find his purpose there, even without magic. We thank you for your help, though we wish things could have turned out differently.
★"Hooray!"
★A more direct intrusion into his mind will elicit a response, though it could be dangerous.
★Guildmates, a joyous day is upon us! SimTitle0 has agreed to join our ranks, and she will train SimFirstName1. Huzzah, SimTitle0!
★Though you did not join our guild, I would like to bestow upon you a gift as a way of saying thank you. It is a staff passed down for generations of Wizards within the Guild, but I would like you to have it. May it serve you well in days to come.
★I should examine the boy again myself before I speak with the others.
★Ah yes, I can feel them. There are others in tune with the Fae in town. What could they want?
★Ugh, what happened... Did I find my source?
★My friends, SimTitle0 has decided not to join our ranks. I know that is difficult to hear, but we must respect her decision. She may yet help to train SimFirstName1, however, so that's something!
★Something... terrible lives within this boy. Without very careful training he could become a destructive and uncontrollable Wizard!
★Hello, SimTitle0, I am SimTitle1. I'm new to the guild myself. I hail from the land of Snordwich, where most citizens spend all day sleeping. My third eye awoke one night while I slept, allowing me to see far off lands and people. This is how we found you.
★I've never been able to sense my source, though SimTitle0 has tried to help me. If I may ask, SimFirstName1, what is your source?
★Ah, hello. I am SimFirstName0. The Archmage here believes that, um... I could be one of the greatest Wizards of our time... but I don't have control over my own magic. I... I think that's why we've come to you?
★Ah, SimTitle0, you've found us before we found you. Truly, you are a powerful Wizard. I am SimTitle1, leader of the Mage's Guild. We started in Effenmont, but have since surpassed borders in our search for great Wizards. This must be a lot to take in, so please speak with my guildmates and learn of our story.
★Yeah... yeah, sometimes when I sleep I feel the same way in my dreams. Is that my source? How can I bring it out?
★"Agee!"
★Like me, right? You seemed like a gentle person to me when I first met you. I'm glad that I was right. So how can I get in touch with my source?
★"Huzzah!"
★Oh... Oh, I see. Most disappointing, though I am relieved that you wish to help with the boy. Please join me in town square and we will announce your decision to the Guild.
★Ahh, so his body is willing to release his magic, but his mind isn't!
★Wait, I sense something... something dark and deep within his mind. I need to focus!
★I can feel it; they're looking for me. But I don't sense any ill intent, so I'll step down to the town square and introduce myself.
★So you met with the boy? Surely you could feel the intense magical potential within him. When he first awakened... it was like being blinded by a brilliant light! Join our guild and help train the boy. I fear we cannot do it alone...
★What action do you suggest, SimTitle0?
★As an official member of the Mage's Guild, and having proven yourself both wise and strong, I bestow upon you the title of Master Mage. Please accept this ancient staff, passed down for many generations of Wizards from the Guild. Use it well, SimTitle1.
★Ah! I felt something, but just for a moment... What is interrupting the flow of magic so terribly?
★Wow! This tower is amazing!! I've never seen so many great artifacts in one place. Oh, wow, is that a baby Pit Beast over there? Astounding!
★The boy would never be whole without his magic, and with you to guide him I'm sure he will find the way. SimFirstName2, your place is here now.
★Well I'll be... He positively thrums with energy. It's like a reservoir pounding against a dam. So much potential... and so much danger.
★SimTitle0 was feeling that little tickle in her brain that suggested that something in the Ether, some small detail, was out of sync. It could grow into quite the distraction if its source was not discovered."I must stay alert today," SimFirstName0 thought to herself, "Perhaps I can delve deeper into this mystery at the Arcane Tome."
★Excellent! SimTitle0 saw your soul truly -- you are a good person. Please meet me back in the town square so I may formally introduce you as a member of the Guild.
★NO!  What's happening?! He's gone into some kind of trance... and I'm... losing... energy...
★Yes! His source reacted at my touch, but only for a moment.
★I've never been able to control my own abilities. I can feel the magic there but I can't... I don't know, connect with it. It only surfaces when, well...
★We're on it!
★A Wizard's magic comes from deep within, but surfaces for different reasons. Understanding the source of one's magic is the first step to controlling it.
★The Archmage has retired to your tower. I believe she would like to talk to you privately there.
★"Guilds deepen our knowledge of the Ether!"
★Scry at Arcane Tome
★"A strong curse should be enough to activate his source without doing any permanent damage... I think."

★Investigate the Caves
★ Now all I have to do is relocate the portal slightly&  directly into the Pit of Judgement!"
★Into the Cave!
★ Now that I'm prepared, I can handle the hordes of goblins and save the village!  Back to the caves!
★Slay Goblin Legions
★ Time to earn my keep in this kingdom.  Onward to the gaping maw of the goblin caves.  A thousand rivers of blood shall run through its veins!
★Slay the Goblin Hordes
★ I must verify these claims, as they did not come from a Wizard.  I remember when the townsfolk mistook a drunken squirrel for a fearsome vorpal bunny."
★Look in the Scary Cave
★Oh, praise The Watcher!  Thank you so much, SimTitle0.  Now I can do manual labor again without sweat stinging my eyes.  How do they look?
★The forest, eh?  And stole her food?  I will keep this town from starving, or my name isn't SimFirstName0 the Towering Beacon of Hope and All That is Good in the Land!
★All right, men and women of battle!  Let us go forth!  I shall head in through the caves.The three of you:  there's a hidden entrance to the rear of the caves in the forest.  Use it.  We shall surround them!
★I should be able to bring these abroad to get special armor and weapons forged for me.
★Violence is wrong.  But if killing goblins means feeding our townsfolk, I think it's okay.  Count me in.Hmm&  I look hot in these greaves.
★Who looks dangerous now?  SimFirstName0 the Goblin Slayer of Doom! Now I should go hunt that goblin that attacked that bandaged female I spoke to earlier.
★Your help in this matter is much appreciated, Master Firesmith.  I will be able to equip three others, now.  Many goblins will soon fall!
★Aha!  The pattern of goblin attacks points to the caves!I'm not sure whether to be humble or grossly egotistical about figuring this out.
★Mmm&  simply delightful, SimTitle0.  Or should I say, Dame Kissable Tastytongue?  I'll be thinking of you.  Now rally your troops, and good luck!
★SimFirstName0 ambushed the goblin and fired a Magic Arrow clear through its abdomen.  The lady was tattered and covered in putrid mucous, but safe!  She thanked SimFirstName0 and made her way to safety.SimFirstName0 found some bulbous meat impaled on the energy barb of the Magic Arrow!
★I'm excited!  I'll go look along the path to the village for more stray goblins.  Those green freaks are doomed.
★Foul beasts!  I swear to avenge that poor SimTitle0.
★The Master Firesmith forged me a Goblinsbane Blade and Goblinsoul Armor!  She says if I come back in a day, she'll have another three sets ready for me.I should try my new goblin gear out.
★Alright, NOW I'm ready to kick some goblin buttocks!
★Peasant?  NO.  I was in the forest when a goblin jumped out of a tree, vomited in my face, and stole the apples I was collecting.  Now I'll go hungry for sure.
★& Yes!  Here's another magical goblin item.  This looks like a Goblin Pain Mask.  Oh, I see something else over there&
★We have no choice.  Slay them all!
★& What's this?  I just found a Goblin Nose Ring.  This is even better than goblin residue!  There must be more trinkets around&
★& Yes!  Here's another magical goblin item.  This looks like a Goblin Pain Mask.  Oh, I see something else over there&
★& Some more prints over here...no residue though&
★Ah, the great Master Firesmith!  She indeed has the skills to forge what I need.  I shall return home soon, prepared for battle!
★The ledger reads:   Goblin Gizzards are bulbous in shape and highly corrosive.  However, when cured with magic, they yield a delicious and mentally addictive meal.
★Good.  Now, I should treat my sword like I would treat my own child:  make sure it's sharp and ready to cut through evil.
★Wow!  This sword is killer.  Our bread knife at home was getting a bit dull, too.  And yeah, I'll help fight goblins!
★Yes!  Aha!  The legendary Fiery Eye of Visibility' spell!  That should do the trick!
★I'm off to the goblin hordes, which I found because I'm smarter than everybody else!  I shall slay them single-fingeredly, with my eyes closed, while pretending I'm not even born yet.  Then I'll weave victory mittens from felled goblin whiskers.
★The new sword and armor did the trick!  I destroyed that goblin, and now I've got some surprisingly tasty goblin meat, too.I could harvest more meat&  it might help feed the town.
★Paradisiacal!  This Cured Goblin Gizzard smells like The Watcher's divine oven!  The Beast won't be able to resist.
★I should get my beauty meditation. A rested mind is an intelligent mind.
★You could say that!  I was sunning myself on the beach when a goblin jumped out of the sand, bit my buttocks, then chewed my hair off.  Thankfully, I lost my appetite.
★Ugh, these goblin prints smell worse than my armor after a four-day battle in hundred-degree weather.  Where do they lead?
★Food was scarce. The townsfolk went hungry, and to make matters worse, there was word of goblins afoot.  Their foul stench wafted through the land. Villagers could barely keep down what little food they had. It's a plague of two parts, and I must act,  thought SimTitle0.   I should talk to victims of the recent goblin attacks.
★And bring any goblin meat you find back with you.  May The Watcher's eye be on you all.
★Oooo, this new Goblinsoul armor makes me feel&  tingly.  I like it!
★& Aha, a Goblin Terror Ritual Bracelet and what looks to be a Goblin Pus-Filled Orb.  These will be perfect.  The footprints only lead just over there&
★Now, for a little rest before battle.
★If I just sit down in a good chair, I'll have the best idea ever.  I just know it.  Because I'm smart.
★I'll start my search by the Pit of Judgement.  If I can find some goblin residue, I can make magic weapons and armor.
★Food was scarce. The people of the kingdom went hungry, and to make matters worse, a foul stench was wafting through the land. Villagers could barely keep down what little food they had. It's a plague of two parts, and I must act,  thought SimTitle0.   I should scry for answers!
★I must seek out one final, good knight kiss.
★All this information is useful.  I can use it to triangulate the origin of the attacks.
★Indefectible!  I've combined the Mystic Grogs into a Curing Agent for the gizzard!
★Let's do this!
★Let me make sure I've got my Goblinsoul Armor equipped&
★My military cunning serves me well, but I should watch myself as I venture into the caves.  Overestimating myself could get me killed.
★I feel that a lady has been dragged off into the woods by a goblin.  She's covered in mucous!  I must save her!
★Do I feel prepared to die?  The goblin hordes may take my life.  Should I find love one last time?
★Goblin Gizzard?  Tasty and addictive, hmm?  I know I can use this somehow.
★Ouch, they're fierce!  My sword and armor are of little use against goblin magic&  I'm bleeding&
★I'll start my search in the sand of the beach.  If I can find some goblin residue, I can make magic weapons and armor.
★I need weapons and armor imbued with anti-goblin magic.  I should search for goblin residue around town where it's safe.
★I don't know what I was afraid of&  goblins aren't so bad after all.  I should go eliminate their legions in the caves!
★You bet I'll help slay some goblins!  I owe you for finding my eyebrows.  You're getting the others to help, too, right?
★This chair is kinda squeaky&  WAIT!  That's it!  I can feed this Addictive Goblin Gizzard to The Beast to get it addicted to the taste of goblins!  And then& haha!
★Thank you the world over, SimTitle0!  I owe you my life&  and yet so much more...
★Hey, look, a goblin just dropped these tattered eyebrows.  They belong to SimTitle1.  I better get out of here.
★Whew!  Decapitating goblins sure exercises your lats and biceps.  And look at all this meat!Now&  I need to outfit some helpers and slay the rest!
★What's going on with these bald, dirty villagers?  I should talk to them&  but I could scry for fun first, if I feel like it.
★Dishonorable goblins!  I shall keep a vigilant eye for those eyebrows.
★This is as far as I can follow the footprints.  But look!  One last magical item  a Goblin Harlot Face Shield!  Lots of strong magic in this one.
★Ahahahahahaha!  HAHAHAHAHAHA!  Now the beast has a taste for Goblin Blood!Into the cave!
★Oooo, look!  Flying fish!
★Okay, now if I just look for goblin footprints, I may find residue laced with goblin magic nearby.  Just find and follow the footprints&
★*Yawn*  Ah, nice and rested, I feel&  WAIT!  That's it!  I can feed this Addictive Goblin Gizzard to The Beast to get it addicted to the taste of goblins!
★Yup, goblins.  Those little freaks rubbed their feet in my face, then tore my hair out.  If you happen to see my eyebrows, I'd love them back&  if I haven't died of hunger by then.
★Destroy the vomiting goblins!
★By The Watcher's Fiery Eye!  I can see the footprints of evil here.  I should follow them.
★Terror, hmm?  They're just dolls, you say?  I don't care.  Just this morning a goblin dragged a poor lady off into the woods by the hair.  I'm okay with it.  Just one fewer mouth to feed during this famine.Good day.
★There they are, those vile beings!  I only count about&  what's a higher number than 1000?  There are a lot, but I can take em.
★Onward, to victory!  I shall go to town square to rally the troops!
★Why slay a few stray goblins when you can slay them all?  Now, I need to make sure everyone is equipped and ready to go.
★By The Watcher's terrible eye!  These caves are crawling with goblins!
★That was brutal. I need practice if I'm going to stand up to these hideous creatures.
★The cave is littered with those beasts. I should practice before heading back in to slay them.
★By the Watcher's eyelid!  There's a portal that's spewing goblins.  I hope they aren't harvesting gall bladders again&   I should see if there have been other attacks.
★Hmm&  I don't see anything, but I feel some disturbing fluctuations in evil magic here.  I should devise a spell to help me look around here.
★I need to talk to one of those bald, dirty villagers.  I'd bet my crystal balls they know about this stench in the air.
★Aha!  Goblins!  Oh my Watcher, this is serious.  I should go take a look in the cave in person.  Thank you, and fare thee well, SimTitle1.
★Food was scarce. The people of the kingdom went hungry, and to make matters worse, a foul stench was wafting through the land. Villagers could barely keep down what little food they had. It's a plague of two parts, and I must act,  thought SimTitle0. I should scry for answers!
★The distant town of Greenstone had just the scholars I needed.  They taught me the recipe for the Fiery Eye of Visibility' spell!
★I see a giant worm!  With eyes!  Wearing bandages& ?No, wait&  that's another dirty, bald villager.  What's going on?
★Let's see what the future holds.  The far, far, far, far future, to be precise.
★I see&  I see further than I've ever seen.  I see a villager with dark hair, wearing a stunning red dress.  Why do I see gothic bells?  Oh  someone nearby just wet themselves!Well, that was fun.  I can't wait for the future.
★I see an ugly, bald beast, covered in grime&  a Troll!No, wait&  that's a bald villager smattered with dirt.  I should look deeper.
★Ow, my scalp!  A goblin near the Pit of Judgment licked my foot and then ripped my hair out!  I'd care if I wasn't about to starve to death anyway.
★I was just emptying my chamberpot by the cave when a little green man ran out, kicked me in the nethers, then sawed my hair off!  And he stank like rotting skunk flesh.
★A crazy little green man vomited pus on me, sliced off my beautiful hair, then went and rolled in the grass and dirt over by the Pit of Judgement.  Please, SimFirstName0, avenge me!
★"We must feed ourselves."
★"We must feed The Beast!"
★ The love of another will help me prevail.  Plus, who could resist my magical goblin armor?

★A wondrous victory! The Beast gobbled up every last goblin, and the kingdom rejoiced!    The townsfolk filled their stomachs with leftover goblin carnage, and listened to The Beast's thundering belches, which shook the ground for centuries to come; these tremors eventually became known as earth-quakes  throughout the land.

★You are mistaken, lowly Peteran. I have come to banish the goblins myself. They spill forth from a portal in the forest as we speak. I just saved someone from them, as a matter of fact.Be gone with you!
★Would you please stop following me around, you misguided fool! I am here to banish the goblins myself. They spill forth from a portal in the forest as we speak. I just saved someone from them, as a matter of fact.Be gone with you!
★I feel so much better... so not filled with darkness and bile! Thank you, SimTitle0.Would you mind helping my friends? I think they're still at the forest clearing.
★I think that went well. Good to see some of the victims made it. But who was that man in the dark robes? I should follow him.
★All right, now is the time for me to decide how to tell the congregation. My thoughts are ripe.
★All right, now is the time for me to tell the congregation. My thoughts are ripe. I must give a sermon.
★Thank The Watcher you can see reason! We need all the help we can get.Meet us here in six hours. That's when we're going in to slay the goblin horde.
★Oh! It's so vivid! I can see... and smell... an army of goblins! They are marching behind the brooch of Jacob's Sword! So it is true!I must alert my congregation!

★*Yawn* In my dreams, I was surrounded by an army of goblins led by the brooch of the Peteran Underground. So the Underground must be the source of the goblins!I must alert my congregation.
★Wow, I no longer feel like I'm full of bees. Will you put an end to these goblins? They've left tracks all over the clearing here. Maybe you can follow them?
★Perhaps I can help this young man with one of my skills as a devout Peteran.
★I shall, my child.  I cannot look past the hair-eating these vile creatures have wrought upon you.
★He's going to walk away like I don't even exist! But he knows I'm here&
★Oh, yes, I saw a man who looked like a dragon ate him and then&  how do I say this delicately&  'expelled' him back out. He's in a bad way. You should really help him if you see him.
★Now, I must make another difficult decision.  Do I help SimFirstName1?  Or go after the goblins before they hurt any more people?
★The forest! Right near the goblins. And here is a third follower! I am convinced that the Underground is massing against us.I must stop them. For The Watcher's sake, I'll try to use peaceful means.
★I will, my child.  This land has no room for such terrors as goblins.
★Fellow Peterans. Dear friends. Loyal citizens. I bear grave news today: Jacob's Sword is among us.
★Fellow Jacobans. Dear friends. Loyal citizens. I bear grave news today: The Peteran Underground is among us.
★Jacob's sword brings with them a plague of goblins to destroy the Peteran faith!I need your prayers to help me on my journey to find and stop them.
★Thank you, SimTitle0. I trust you did not get your tainted faith on my brooch while it was in your hands?
★I'm okay, thank you, SimTitle0. Haven't heard of anyone needing help today.
★Hmm&  my life is pretty miserable right now. But that's how I like it. Keeps me honest. Try someone else.
★Uncharacteristically, this Jacob's Sword leader has pure intentions. I'll help out. We shall make a powerful team.
★Uncharacteristically, this Peteran Underground leader has pure intentions.  I'll help out.  We shall make a powerful team.
★When the time is right, I will turn against them. I can kill two birds with one stone...
★They cannot be trusted. I will kill two birds with one stone...
★I feel much better now! You really do have a kind spirit. Please, stop the goblins!By the way, did you see the goblin tracks out here?
★Hang on... Who is that strange man in dark robes lined with the color of blood?
★Hang on... Who is that armored man with the pants of leisure?
★I wasn't sure you would make it, SimTitle0.Now let's go show these goblins their demise! The Peteran Underground will prevail!!
★Perfect!  I'm so vastly intelligent!  Now I just need to walk around until this Goblin Shedding begins to radiate energy.  It's already pulling me toward engraved stone&
★Goblins?  Yes!  I heard from Samuel that Arthur told him that the executioner's sister, Diane, saw goblins burping on townsfolk in the square!  One of those creatures dropped this Strange Doll.  Here, you can have it...
★Wow, that's unfortunate.  I'll find a safe way to destroy SimTitle1's Terror Doll.
★Yeah, a goblin tore my hair out! Look at my face! I have no eyebrows, for Watcher's sake!And no, that doll doesn't look like me. It's a girl, you know.
★I was down by the docks when a goblin jumped out of the sand and ate my hair off! I think it drooled on me, too. That girly doll? Not me. My abs are bigger.
★SimTitle0 was in a bad state, barely seemed aware of the location, and slurred, "Oh&  I feel miserable. You know that feeling you get, like a vile monster has been clawing at your scalp?"Upon gazing at the doll in SimTitle1's hand, and SimTitle0's expression changed; twisting into a mask of sheer dread. "Hey, what's that doll?! It makes me feel&  like I have no soul. Get it away! Get it away from me!!""I'm guessing this is our Terror Doll victim." SimTitle1 said.
★I was just leaving the woods where I was&  uh, picnicking&   and a little green man vomited on me and took my hair. I'm pretty sure it was a goblin!That creepy doll isn't me, though. Try someone else.
★Nary a goblin&  but the clearing is littered with hair, footprints, and thrown goblin dung. And the footprints go everywhere.
★GOBLINS! Goblins happened here! But why attack our town square? I hope they're not collecting spleens again. Maybe the Town Crier can tell me more.
★It is done! TownName is in high spirits! Now, to face the horrors of the cave!
★Ugh, these goblin prints smell worse than peasant bathwater.
★These goblin footprints are disgusting.  There's mucous all over them&  how does that even happen?Where else do they lead?
★& Some more prints over here&
★& Some more prints over here&  No residue though...
★& The goblin prints lead here, too.
★&  These foul prints are everywhere! Hmm&  there are larger, human prints near most of them&
★Gah! Pretty sure I stepped in some goblin pus.
★& Yes, the goblin and human prints go this way, too. I have faith I will find something if I keep following them&
★The tracks go everywhere&  but what's this? Some muck-laden item. I can feel the goblin power emanating from within! I should wash it&  and wash myself.
★Ah&  the tracks end here, but what's this?  A strange religious trinket, it looks like.  With a sword and an eye on it?I should pray for answers.
★Ah&  the tracks end here, but what's this? A strange religious trinket, it looks like. With a sword and an eye on it?How mysterious. I should ask The Watcher for some answers.
★By The Watcher's Eye! This is no ordinary doll. This is a goblin Terror Doll!
★Terror Doss
★Nary a goblin&  but the beach is littered with hair, footprints, and goblin lice. And the footprints go everywhere.
★I must make haste now. I will find and destroy the source of the goblins, or my name isn't SimFirstName0 the Wizardly!
★A foul air, heavy with sulfur, had been blowing through the kingdom for days. It somehow managed to offend all five of the senses.SimTitle0 was beginning to suspect that this was no ordinary kingdom stink. She felt&  odd.   This putrid air may be more serious than I thought&  she said.   I must sit down in a good chair and ponder what my senses are telling me.
★This is a strange doll, indeed!  I should learn its true meaning.
★That should ease SimFirstName1's suffering. And hopefully her hair will grow back...
★Ah, yes, indeed.  I sense a great deal of evil... and it is wafting up from somewhere with a well... now where would that place be?
★This is fresh skin shedding from a molting goblin! Quite magical indeed! I can Scry with it to bind great prophetic magic to it. Also: Disgusting!!
★SimTitle0 found the entry she was looking for under "Dolls, Terror: Goblin or Hobgoblin." It stated that goblins (or hobgoblins) crafted Terror Dolls from human hair.  As long as a Terror Doll existed, it would strike terrible fear into the heart of the person whose hair it claimed. SimTitle0 pondered this. I hate Terror Dolls!  she said. The goblins must be stopped!
★By dawn's light! This is it! There must be a Goblin Portal directly underneath the graveyard in an obscure passage of the cave!
★Aha! I've figured out the feeling. This enchanted goblin shedding is pulling me toward the graveyard by the cave!
★Praise The Watcher, I feel&  whole again! And more than a little tingly in places. Thank you, SimTitle0, I will carry you in my dreams and prayers.
★Oh my&  this is it! Evil deeds have transpired here. My senses are nearly overwhelmed! I should meditate on this...

★SimTitle0 unfolds the parchment and reads carefully,Attention all citizens of TownName, please be advised that the Golem guardians of Ticktop have been cursed. These creatures are highly dangerous. All Golem sightings must be reported immediately.Anyone willing to help should visit the Throne Room immediately for instructions.-SimTitle1
★Maybe I'll have to just beat this one into submission...
★There! Now you look like a real Golem!
★So how do I put this on?
★What was that? Why do I suddenly feel like dancing?
★I wonder if Special Agent Tock has made any progress bringing the volunteers over from Ticktop?
★Very well, SimTitle0. I had hoped to resolve the Golem menace without resorting to violence, however your wishes will be respected. Destroying these Golems will be perilous and expensive. We will need to make some preparations before traveling to Ticktop.
★A free drink for me? Is this the best day ever?
★I wonder how many drinks Digory can handle?
★SimTitle0 unfolds the note and reads it, "Well met, SimTitle0. Our most brilliant engineers at Ticktop have devised a plan to put an end to these rampaging, dancing Golems and restore their stoic natures. We require your help in crafting a prototype disguise which can then be replicated by our engineers. Once you have finished crafting the disguise, it will be your duty to gather an army of volunteers to venture into Ticktop. I cannot speak more of the plan now, but I promise it will be revealed in time. If you are willing to help, I have included blueprints for the Golem Disguise."
★That sounds like a yes!
★"Alright, I'll join your Golem Army for free!"
★Digory probably won't notice if I pour him the hard stuff this time...
★Digory quaffs the drink without pausing for air.
★SimTitle0 flips through the moth-eaten pages of the Golem tome, searching for clues about a transformative spell. Eventually one section catches her attention:"A new spell can be derived from an ancient curse spell using Light runes instead of Dark runes. The new spell will imbue the target with Golem-like attributes such as massive brawn, but at a cost to their more human qualities."At the bottom of the page a note has been crudely scrawled by someone other than the original author. "The spell can be disorienting for the subject. It's helpful to engage the subject in conversation as a distraction."
★When you're ready, give the order, and we march to Ticktop to battle with Golems!
★Owf course I...hic...will water your shmolems!
★We need an army! An army of Golems to fight the Golems! A special agent from Ticktop has just arrived and offered his assistance with the Golem crisis. I believe he has a plan for crafting our legion of Golem warriors.
★Well done, SimTitle0! Those Golems won't be able to stop dancing for a moment. Let me know when you're ready to begin the march toward Ticktop.
★Maybe Digory just needs another drink...
★Muh bestest oldest friend...hic...ask for anything and it's yours!
★And put on one of those awkward Golem suits? I'd rather leap into the Pit of Judgement!
★A bold choice, SimTitle0! Some preparations must be made before we travel to Ticktop. Perhaps SimTitle1 could be of service with some minor tinkering?
★This is perfect, SimTitle0. However, the disguise will need to be enchanted with Mana Stones in order to empower the wearer. You should speak to SimTitle1 about that. In the meantime, I will send for my craftsman in Ticktop to create additional disguises based on your prototype.
★Why do I suddenly feel like dancing?
★Golem Army? Boo.
★Special Agent Tock has returned from Ticktop and sent SimTitle0 a package, which is now at the messenger post.
★Over here, SimTitle0! Fabulous work gathering these recruits and getting them into Golem suits!
★...Hic...sheeya at...Training...hic...Yard!
★A spell to transform people into Golems? How captivating! I will have to conduct some research at my archives and attempt to discover the proper rune combination.
★Golems: A Comprehensive Handbook"The first craftsmen able to animate true Golems were the inventors of Ticktop. It was discovered that Mana Stones imbued these inanimate humanoids with significant powers. The stones can be placed into a cage inside their torso.Although Golems are unable to speak, they often express themselves physically and with unintended force. A spell exists which can transform a person into a Golem and grant them comparable strength.The most effective method for destroying a Golem is through the removal of the Mana Stone. This can be difficult, as most Golems will resist fiercely."
★You want me to march into Ticktop and get eaten by a crazy Golem? No way!
★A triumph! I have mastered this ancient spell! Now to find a suitable test subject...
★Now SimTitle0, I must reveal the second part of my plan:As you know, these Golems are dancing incessantly. They bash into homes and abduct unwilling dance partners every night. Sometimes those partners are wounded or even crushed to death.I propose we quell their desires through...a Golem Dance-Off!
★Maybe I should try that again...
★Alright! Now how do I change into that Golem outfit?
★You could ask my friend Digory. He lives in the castle, often lamenting the lack of adventure opportunities in the kingdom! Just offer him a few drinks and he will become more agreeable...
★Let me try that again...
★In response to the Golem crisis in Ticktop, SimTitle0 sent a notice by carrier pigeon to all townsfolk:"ATTENTION ALL CITIZENS:The Golems of Ticktop have been cursed and the territory is now under quarantine. Please be advised that these creatures are highly perilous, even if they appear strangely mirthful. Any Golem sightings must be reported immediately. Anyone interested in helping to solve the Golem Crisis should report to the Throne Room."
★Uh oh, that didn't work at all...maybe I should try again?
★So glad you asked! You'll need to inject the volunteers with this serum I developed to amplify their dancing potential. I call it "Liquid Pizzazz!"
★I have a plan to stop the Golems, but it will require a special Golem disguise. Your skills as a blacksmith should prove invaluable in crafting this item. I'll send the specifics to a secret box in the messenger post outside.
★I just need to focus...
★Whoaaa! My feet are moving on their own!
★There's a dusty old book with a picture of a Golem on it here, too. Perhaps my friend SimTitle0 could help interpret it?
★SimTitle0 will transform you into a Golem now. Don't worry, it's only temporary.
★These will work perfectly! They're quite rare; you must have spent some time searching.
★I wonder how Mr. Tock fit five Golem Disguises into that small box? I guess they call him "Special Agent" for a reason...
★So the Golems in Ticktop are just dancing constantly? How fascinating! Perhaps some sinister magic is involved.
★My father was crushed to death by a Golem hug. This is my chance for vengeance! Just tell me what I need to do.
★Hic...thanks!

★Everyone is talking about this delicious new spice a mysterious traveller was recently selling!
★This gruel is positively spicy and delicious!
★Years ago, a well-travelled explorer appeared in the kingdom selling an exotic spice he claimed to have discovered from mushrooms growing at the base of an active volcano. Despite the extraordinary danger required to obtain this condiment, the savory flavors it provided even common gruel were enough to attract the Monarch's attention. After selling his entire supply for an exorbitant price, the explorer left to search for more active volcanoes.The story of the delicious spiced gruel ends there, however, as the explorer never returned. Townsfolk have suffered watery, oatsy flavored gruel. If only someone could recover more of that rare spice, they would earn a fortune!
★Everyone at the market is raving about this new delicious spicy sauce, it's truly unbelievable!

★Such a formal request to end your life... how could I turn it down?Just know that I take my vengeance seriously, SimTitle0.After cutting you to bloody ribbons, I will turn my wrath upon everything you hold dear and not rest until it all rots beside you!
★You truly think you can best me with a sword, SimTitle0?I welcome you to try. But know that I eat pieces of junk like you for breakfast, and as you can see, I am well-fed.
★A glutton for punishment, I see.Well, if you're foolish enough to come back for seconds, there's plenty more beatings to be had!
★Aaarggh... Impossible! How could I, the mighty Guild-Lord of Tredony, be defeated by the likes of you?!
★I tried to warn you that you were no match for me.Mess with the fire and you're liable to get burnt.
★That was a lucky strike, no more.It's going to take a more than a few flourishes of your sword to quench my fiery vengeance.
★SimTitle0 seems unstoppable, yet I refuse to admit defeat!Now might be a good time to drink the Legendary Elixir of Sea Strength.It's either  or me!
★You have ruined me, SimTitle0! My guild is gone, my armies lost and my body is broken.It would have been more humane to end my life now, than to cast me out to fade into ignominity.
★My death is nothing, but to live defeated and inglorious is to die daily...
★I think your creature bit off something a little more than it could chew... ME! Mwahaha!
★The Guild Lord has been soundly defeated.Once he comes to, I shall decide his fate.
