[edit] Dialogue

NOTE: like some other minor NPCs his responses change following your progress in the game.

Early in the game

• "I hear you're the up-and-coming Sunspear. Tell me, have you thought about building a home?"
• "I only use real Istani ironreed in my construction. It makes things so much more sturdy."
• "I've always thought of myself as more of a roof-specialist."
• "The most successful sunspears are those with a good foundation of skills."
• "Your profession is like the floor of your home. Choose carefully, and you can stand on it forever."

After Jokanur Diggings:

• "Demons? Nightfall? Nonsense! You're just trying to panic the crowd. Istan is as firm as its foundations."
• "I wish I had gone to Vabbi to study art."
• "There's something alive still in those ruins. I hear it, grinding, whispering."
• "We've tried to build over those old ruins. But some dark power always stopped us, razing everything we tried to raise."
• "With the ruins cleared, we can finally study the architecture there. What a treasure!"

Later in the game

• "I have a map of the town, and I'm thinking about adding watchtowers. What do you think?"
• "I wish I'd taken that job in Kourna. I'd be far away from all this."
• "My seer friend always goes on about the books in Vabbi, but she completely misses the grandeur of the library itself!"
• "Vabbi has nothing to compare with Istan's simple beauty. Their buildings are too large, too grand, like wallowing hippopotami."
• "You can't beat vabbian architecture. Varesh wouldn't even get a foothold there."
