==Dialogue==
"Did you want to ask me something?"
:What did you do after the war? "Typical fare for a retired soldier. Repenting, soul-searching, goal-seeking, I set out for Hammerfell, but then I found my quarry."
::How did you find it? "I travelled on my own from the city toward Hammerfell, using no roads. One night, I had a vivid dream that I was in Akavir, fighting a Dragon. The dragon killed me, then flew to the camp where the real me was asleep, and lay down. When I awoke, I felt an irresistible pull to the North. It was quite out of my way, but I could not stop myself. And before I knew it, I was descending into a well-hidden lair."
::What was it doing? "It was... well, it was waiting in its lair."
:::Was it bothering anyone? "What do you mean? It's a ruthless, power-hungry killer by its very nature. It's a threat so long as it's any more than a pile of bones."
::::Fair enough. "Glad we can agree on this."
::::You should have left it. "It is unfortunate that it has caused so much destruction. Yes, perhaps it was foolish to attack. But now it's out for blood, and we have no choice but to hunt it. I will not apologize for doing what I felt was right, but I will finish what I started."
:::Must have been thrilling. "I believe it was the most thrilling moment of my life. In a war, you are never alone, but here, I was alone facing down the world's most dangerous foe. A feeling I will not soon forget."
:How did you find this place? "I followed my prey all the way here on foot. It has been a long, hard road. This is a good kingdom. I am glad I found it."
:What keeps you busy? "Hunting, exploring the woods. Your kingdom is beautiful. And dangerous."
:Where are you from? "I was brought into this world to taste the hot sun and bitter sands of the Alik'r... or so I wish. No, my parents moved to the Imperial City to escape the desert heat. I grew up with little exposure to my ancient culture, so I sought it out myself. On my own, I read the great writings of my people, of sword arts and legendary battles. I trained a while in Taneth before returning to Cyrodiil and joining the, ah, Imperial Legion."
:Not really. "So long, ."

"Ah, you must be the town champion. Thank you for accepting my challenge. I have been searching far and wide for one who will match my skills. Let's hope you're the one... Onsi, guide my blade!"
After defeating Azzin:
"Enough. You've shown that your skills rival mine, and may even surpass them. I must say, some of your techniques seem familiar to me... *very* familiar, in fact. It feels like I learned those same techniques a long time ago, training for an elite Imperial unit that no longer exists. You wouldn't know anything about this, would you?"
:We all have our secrets. "Yes, I suppose we do. Let's return to town. There's something I want to talk to you about. A proposition of sorts."
:I thought I was the last one. ". Nothing more than rumors. Those of us who have survived have grown very wary."
In the town:
"I am glad my search for a warrior of my caliber may have come to an end... Of course, that depends on whether or not you'll accept my proposal. I needed to find a purpose, a reason to keep going and further hone my skills. I thought, what is the most terrifying, destructive force in this world? And then it hit me: dragons. I would become a dragonslayer! Now, I know what you're going to say... Dragons are long gone, I'm running after ghosts, etc. But that's not true. There are still dragons around, they're just well-hidden. Finding them isn't easy, but I've become quite good at it. In fact, I have been tracking one of them for weeks, and now it seems to have settled in your quiet and peaceful land."
:I know, I saw it. "You did? That's good! Where was it?"
::A small village not far from here. "I was right, then. That is great news! Will you help me hunt and kill this beast? It stands little chance against two warriors like us."
:::I'll help you. "Excellent! I'll do some reconnaissance and let you know when we can strike."
:::I have other things to do. ""
:It's not *that* peaceful... ""

"I have exciting news, I have narrowed down my quarry's lair to two locations. I say we each search one of the locations. Scout only! Our strength is in numbers. When you are satisfied, return here, if either of us find the monster, we go together. Will you aid me?"
:Yes, I'll do it. "Wonderful! I will show you where to go when you are ready."
:No. "Why? Do you not want to fulfill your ancient duty? Yes, I believe you will change your mind."
If approached again:
"Have you finished preparing? I am itching to go, but I will wait until you are ready."
After finding the dragon:
"What did you find?"
:The dragon flew away when I arrived. "Damn! So it really *was* in that cave. Well, it won't go back there. If we find it again, we better make sure it can't escape, or it may flee to another kingdom entirely."
:An old mine full of trolls. "I see. They must have given you quite a challenge... I had no luck, either. No matter! My search continues. I will find it."
Show: The Hunt, part 2
"Warrior, I've found it! The lair is cleverly hidden, and not close. Let's go! My blade wants to dance."
:All right. "Yes! Ready yourself. We must leave as soon as possible."
:Not right now. "Augh! Why? Fine. I'll wait for you to be ready, but the creature will not. I know you want this as much as I do. Don't let this chance escape us."
If approached again:
"You look ready. Let's go!"
If the Fugitive declined at first:
"Good, you've had a change of heart. Shall we go hunting?"
:Yes, let's go. "Yes! Ready yourself. We must leave as soon as possible."
:Still no. "My patience is waning, . Think carefully about this. It may be your last chance."
When met at the location:
"What held you so long? No matter. I had a good chance, so I went for it. The thing is injured, as am I. Go finish it off!"
If approached again:
"What are you waiting for? My blessing? May Onsi strengthen your resolve and guide your blade to the monster's heart. Now, go!"
"I must rest. No more talk."
"..."
Back in the town:
"What an amazing thrill! We've done it! Congratulations, Warrior."
:What will you do now? "I will rest for a while. Then I will continue to search the area. I am starting to think that my quarry was not alone, that there may be another one around here. Looking for it will give me something to do, at least."
:How do you feel? "Hmm. Dissatisfied somehow. As though there is another one around here. I will stay longer until I have searched the area thoroughly"
:You did most of the work. "Yes, but without you I might be dead. So, thank you. I am starting to think that my quarry was not alone, that there may be another one around here. I will stay a while longer until I have searched the area thoroughly."

"My suspicions were right. There is another dragon in the area!"
:Really? "Yes, and it's practically next door. Will you help me? I get the feeling this one is a little stronger."
::Yes, I'll help. "Fantastic. Let's set out when you're ready. It will be no match for the two of us."
::You'll be fine on your own. "You won't help? That's a pity. I will need longer to prepare. No matter; it won't go anywhere. This one has been waiting there a long time."
If approached again:
"From what I can tell, this dragon doesn't leave its lair. It should be easy to corner it. All we have to do then is to take it down."
If the Fugitive declined at first:
"I could really use your help fighting this other dragon. I believe it might be even more powerful than the last... Will you reconsider?"
:Yes, I'll help. "Fantastic. Let's set out when you're ready. It will be no match for the two of us."
:You'll be fine on your own. "You won't help? That's a pity. I will need longer to prepare. No matter; it won't go anywhere. This one has been waiting there a long time."
In Shulkunaak's lair:
"You would die to protect this Khajiit? And here I thought we were friends... Some dragonslayer you are, Warrior. Oh well, better get on with it, then. Have at me, !"
After defeating Azzin:
"I hope you know... the gods are watching. You will pay for this... some day."
If approached again:
"I have nothing more to say to you. Just leave me alone, or kill me, I don't care."

Saashi: "You're too late. Shulkunaak's gone. This one could not let him just get slaughtered like that."
Azzin: "... and *this* is why you should never trust a Khajiit. They'll turn around and betray you without blinking an eye."
Saashi: "Saashi did not betray anyone. The dragon once spared this one's life, she owed him as much."
Azzin: "Rest assured, I will not make the same mistake. Prepare to die."
Saashi: "Warrior, help!"
