You? You seem familiar...

Let's go and have some supper.

Are you a member of the crew?

I don't sell tales anymore, they all seem so disordered in my head. Don't ask me to do it.

[[library:oghmium:underwater_cave_journal|Ieleas]]? Oh, he isn't with me anymore. I'm afraid he...he decided to end his life.

It was in [[:Branth]] I found [[library:oghmium:underwater_cave_journal|Ieleas]], chattering his teeth against the curbstone for is pillow.

Wouldn't he rather follow me back to [[:Myrland]]? Alas, how I regret telling him about the [[:Greater Kimuru|earth bull]] and its [[:Red Thunderegg|seed]].

The passage money, how much is that? I'll pay now.

How dreary these streets! block of blackness, not houses, on either hand, and here and there a candle, like a candle moving about in a tomb.

Deep is the meaning of //Narkei//, who because he could not grasp the tormenting, mild image he saw in the pool, plunged into it and was drowned.

But that same image, we ourselves see in all rivers and oceans. It is the image of the ungraspable phantom of life, and this is the key to it all.

Surely all this is not without meaning.

In the pool, //Narkei// found death, and salvation.

And so did [[library:oghmium:underwater_cave_journal|Ieleas]], why else would he abandon me?

Point out my state-room, captain. I'm travel-weary, I need sleep.

Deep into distant jungle lands winds a mazy way, reaching below overlapping cliffs bathed in their hill-side yellow.

Yet the journey is in vain, unless the voyager's eye is fixed upon the magic stream before him.

In that pool he found death, and salvation.

Now where is my carpetbag?

And what of //Daeo//, this new slayer of the [[:Greater Kimuru|earth bull]]?

..

Woe to him whose good name is more to him than goodness!

Woe to him who provokes [[:Gods#Oghma|Oghma]], ennetu will befall him!

Yes, terror upon terror will run shouting through his soul.

I'll have the clam-soup, please. And a couple of smoked [[:Herbeus|herbei]] by way of variety.

It was the [[:Red Thunderegg|red color]]. Poor [[library:oghmium:underwater_cave_journal|Ieleas]], he thought to flee the [[:gods]] by drowning himself. Ah yes, the dungeon of [[:Branth]]. What a pity they didn't stop up the chincks and the crannies, and thrust a little lint here and there.

My bones turn to icicles just thinking about that godforsaken place.

It was in [[:Branth]] I found [[library:oghmium:underwater_cave_journal|Ieleas]], chattering his teeth against the curbstone for his pillow.
