When entering the crypt:
"Do not linger here. Danger threatens elsewhere."
:Who are you? What's wrong? "I am Valdur. I rode with the Five Hundred at Ysgramor's side. But now, my very essence is wracked by magic."
::The Worm Cult. "Yes, the dark-robed mages. Deep in the ruin. They're breaking the binding that holds me here. They're pulling me apart!"
:::How can I stop them? "Navigate the puzzle. Get past the doors. Stop them!"
After speaking to Daneras:
"The Worms … ripping my soul apart. Help me!"
:What happens if I don't stop them? "I'll be theirs, corrupted by the cult. My spirit will ravage the Rift.Stop them, please!"
:[Intimidate] Valdur! Help me solde the puzzle. "I can't think. They're ripping me apart!Follow ... symbols ... above doors ... Whale, Eagle, Snake.Hurry!"
After saving him:
"It's been so long. I'm free. And you saved me. Thank you, liege-lord."
:You're welcome. The cult can't try that again? "No. With my shackles destroyed and the cult's ritual disrupted, I am free.They wished to enslave me, to use me to strengthen the giant Sinmur. I will aid you in your quest against the foul Worms."
Show: To Honrich Tower
"My lord, before you go. There is one more thing."
:What is it, spirit? "Now that I'm free, I can sense Hakra, the spirit guardian at Pinepeak. She speaks to me, warning of a dark gathering at Honrich Tower, to the east."
::What kind of gathering? "The cult, she says. Forces allied with you also gather at Honrich Tower.I will journey there, in my own way. You should travel there as well, my lord."
:::As you say, spirit. "Please, my liege-lord. Make haste for Honrich Tower. Whatever darkness grows there must be stopped."
::::Why were you bound here, spirit? "My shield-sister Hakra and I were bound to the Rift as caretakers. We were put in place to guard against threats like the Worm Cult and the return of Sinmur.We gave our lives that our future kinsmen would know peace."

"This fiend Thallik Wormfather—he cannot be allowed to hold Wuuthrad! We will get it back. The king's soldier, Captain Hrosta, searches for Wormfather even now.In the meantime, you must stop the Daedra coming from Coldharbour."
:What do I have to do? "There are four portals in the ruins. There are many cultists and many Daedra guarding them, but if you can find the portals and close them, that will reduce their numbers.The blessing of Ysgramor's Five Hundred Companions will be with you."
::[Persuade] Couldn't one of you fight at my side? "Our power is stretched to its limit. But ... your need is great. Very well. We will raise one of the legendary Five Hundred to aid you in this time of great peril."
:::This spirit will aid me in battle? "Aye. Even in death the Companions yearn to fight for Skyrim. Would you enter battle with a warrior, a , or one of our talented healers? Choose, and they will fight by your side."
::::I'll ender battle beside a warrior. "Well chosen. This lass stood with the crew of the Kaal Kaaz in their final battle."
::::I choose a companion. "Aye. Wisely chosen. This lad stood against the might of Red Mountain, and sings the tale to this day in Sovngarde."
::::I choose to fight beside a healer. "This lass tended the crew of the Krilot Lok. She met her end facing the Argonians of Black Marsh! Wisely chosen."
