*An elf dressed in black studded leather armor carrying a shield with many weapons sheathed on his belt approaches Grimble*

*The elf approaches with in 6 feet of Grimble and stops. He looks at him for some time with a curious look. Than says*

Well meet Grimble. My name is Arthos Vanshriek. I couldn't help to over hear your confused request for the location of certain people. I may be able to help you. Let me see, ah yes,

Artigal. I meet him a couple weeks ago. A nice man who found out he had a son in which he thought he could not have. He is wise in his old age and has treated this town and me with respect and kindness. I still think he is around the area. I believe if you wait here in town, you two will meet.

Now the name Islandway has come up in conversation before. I do not know if she survives the cataclysm or not, but her followers still do her bidding. Her cult of IO still lives on destroying Florins creations and helping people where they can. That is all I know.

I have heard a story about a Dwarf named Blackthorn Heldrummer. In many of the accounts he was a savior to his people, a betrayer of his of honor, the monster of humanity, the peace bringer, and many good and bad titles. According to the stories he was destroyed in the cataclysm trying to prevent the destruction of his homeland. They said he fought with honor to the end. But the curious thing the stories say his body was never found. Who knows he might still live on.

We'll I hope this helps. I only ask if you do stay in town that you help defend this town and do not bring violence to the people.

*Arthos steps forward and holds out his hand in a sign of friend ship to Grimble. Arthos warmly smiles at Grimble*

hmmmpf

Names from the past. Strange. Spoken as though all lived in one place... knew each other.

This could not have been for decades, and Orcs are not known for their longevity. Grimble would appear to be a victim of the time distortions.

I believe you are correct Dallid. Grimble, would you tell me what you can remember? Your story would help a great deal in rebuilding the lore library and maybe I can help you piece some things together.

*Huffs a little then calms down*

*Grins a one-tusked grin*

Ah! A preserving sleep, then! I had studied such remedies in my youth - generally used to arrest the progress of poison or disease until such time as proper treatment could be given. But to slumber so long... that was a potent flower! Likely would have been a final sleep for a less robust being!

Though you may also have shifted through time during your sleep, as well.

Ah, forgive my wandering mind. Yes, surely you are hungry. We have reaped a fine harvest, however it must last the winter, so I'm afraid the portions we can offer are meager. Still, it is more than nothing, so come eat and drink with us. Perhaps later you can join a hunting party to bring back more substancial food, and thus eat your fill.
