Show: The Conceiling Veil
"Ready to move on, hero? Verandis sent word to me. I know where we need to go next."
:I'm ready. What did Verandis tell you? "There's an old ruin in the Lorkrata Hills, northeast of Shornhelm. Verandis said his research led him there and he needs your help. Why he needs you when he has me, I'll never understand. But he is the master. As he constantly reminds me."
::What about the Countess and the Shornhelm Guard? "They won't be needed at the Lorkrata ruins. That's for you and Verandis to deal with. I'll bring her Ladyship up to speed about what's going on in Northpoint. You can meet us there after you and Verandis are finished with the ruins."
:::I guess I'm heading for the Lorkrata Hills then.
Show: Northpoint in Peril
"I must say, Darien certainly has a way with the ladies. That's not how I'd go about extracting information from the enemy, but I can't fault his results. The old smuggler's tunnel should lead into the city—if we can get through it."
:What do you mean? "Well, the smugglers who use the tunnels installed a gate. Gives them a monopoly on the black market in Northpoint. The tunnel will get us into the city—if we can get past the locked gate."
::Any idea where to find a key? "The smuggler boss is a tough pirate. Goes by the name of Lagra. If anyone has a key, it's her. But the Montclairs attack any boats that approach the city. There are wrecks up and down the coast. If Lagra's still alive, that's where we'll find her."
After obtaining the key to the tunnel:
"Over here! By the rocks! Come on. I'll take you to where the others are waiting. Tell us you found something, hero. We could use some good news."
"Tell me you found something good, hero. It's not like the fate of Rivenspire is hanging in the balance or anything."
:I've got the key to the tunnel. It's in the cave beneath the lighthouse. "Right, then! Let's go see what Lleraya's doing in there. But brace yourself. I don't think we're going to like what we find."
::What do you mean? "Northpoint … it just feels … empty. I sense life in there, but it's faint. Barely perceptible. We need to be ready for anything."
:::Then let's head inside. "His lordship, the Baron over there, wants us to head inside, see what's going on, and secure the area. He wants us to be slow and careful so as not to damage his precious city. Good job getting that key, by the way. Now let's go save Northpoint."
"I need to let Verandis know what's going on. In the meantime, talk to Skordo. He knows the cityl ike the back of his hand."
Show: The Lightless Remnant
"He's really gone, isn't he? The mighty Verandis. I hate this! I really hate it!"
:He sacrificed himself to save us all. "Sacrificed? Like in dead? What do you mean he sacrificed himself?"
::He took the Lightless Remnant to Coldharbour. It was the only way. "No! Why'd you let him do that? Do you know how hard he worked to distance himself from the Prince? If Verandis is still alive, the Prince won't give him up easily. But why did he leave me here? I would have … I should have gone with him."
:::Verandis wouldn't have wanted that. "How do you know what he wanted? He was everything to me! Why didn't he tell me what he was planning? Why didn't he let me help him?"
:::He did what he set out to do. He saved Rivenspire. "Saved us? It doesn't feel like I was saved. But Verandis always carried a great weight on his shoulders. Maybe that's been lifted from him now. I can only hope, right?"
::::It's time to go, Gwendis. "Before we go, take this. Verandis gave it to me, but I can't keep it. You helped him so much. You should have it. You helped the man I cared about … the man I loved. And you were with him to the end. This belongs to you."
Show: The Crown of Shornhelm
"I need a little time to say my farewells. Don't worry about me. I won't do anything stupid. I promise. But you need to get back to Shornhelm. Without Verandis there, they're going to need your help to figure out what happens next."
:What do you mean? "All of this, it happened because Rivenspire doesn't have a true leader. If that doesn't change, it won't be long before the region falls into chaos once more. At least, that's what Verandis used to say."
::And what about you? "I'll find my way. Verandis taught me well. And Adusa's back at the manor. She'll keep me company. Things will be all right. It'll just take time. Now go. Get out of here and go help the High King choose a ruler for Rivenspire."
:::I'm on my way to Shornhelm.
Show: The Ravenwatch Inquiry
Outside your alliance's starting city:
"You here about the contract? Investigating the Gray Host is like trying to wrestle an angry spirit! Anyway, the Ravenwatch could certainly use the help. And by the Ravenwatch, I mean me."
:Why is House Ravenwatch investigating the Gray Host? "The Ravenwatch is dedicated to curtailing the activities of unscrupulous vampires, and the Gray Host is as unscrupulous as they come! Someone is rebuilding the ancient army of vampires and werewolves from the First Era. We have to stop them."
::How do you know all this? "Hey, I was doing stuff before you showed up! Look, there's a new Gray Host. One of their original leaders may be in charge. And they're experimenting with life energy. If that doesn't spell trouble, I don't know what does! Will you help me?"
:::I'll help you find out more about the Gray Host. "Everything I learned up to now points in the same direction. Bangkorai Garrison. There's a scholar named Laurette Diel there who may be able to tell us more about the Gray Host and how they were defeated. Cart's over there when you're ready to go."
::::What are you hoping to accomplish at the Bangkorai Garrison? "I'm hoping a scholar of ancient Bangkorai battles named Laurette Diel or one of her colleagues can tell us more about the Gray Host. With any luck, they have information about the Gray Host that's not too … outlandish."
:::::What do you mean, outlandish? "The priests have this old holy text that claims Saint Pelin leapt off the garrison's walls, landed among the Host, asked Stendarr for endless blood, and then fed them all without dying. Then the garrison dropped some rocks on them. See? Outlandish."
::::::So you want more reasonable answers. "Exactly. We need practical facts about how the Gray Host was defeated at Bangkorai Garrison. Hopefully, Scholar Diel can provide them."
::::What's House Ravenwatch? "I suppose you wouldn't have heard of us. We are a bit secretive. Now's probably a good time to tell you … I'm a vampire. All members of House Ravenwatch are. We hunt bad vampires, and also deal with the occasional misbehaving werewolf."
:::::How many of you are there? "Not nearly enough, and we're stretched pretty thin. Investigating this on my own didn't seem prudent, so I requested aid. And now here you are, offering it. I'm touched."
::::Tell me about what you learned. "My research has uncovered pieces, but I hope the scholars at the Bangkorai Garrison can put the puzzle together. Members of the Gray Host experimented with life energy. And at least one of their leaders survived their defeat in the ancient past."
:::::Tell me about the Gray Host survivor. "My research indicates a council ruled the Gray Host. One of those leaders fell out of favor and another survived the final battle. A Direnni noble with connections to Viridian Watch gave the survivor sanctuary. In return, they made her a vampire."
:::::Tell me about the experiments with life energy. "In the ancient past, the Gray Host sought to use life energy to draw souls into containment vessels called stone husks. It had something to do with returning the dead to life. I think there's a new Gray Host and they've revived those experiments."
::::::Anything else I need to know before we head out? "Probably, but nothing that can't wait. Let's take the cart to the Bangkorai Garrison and find the scholars who can tell us more about the history of the Gray Host."
After speaking with Scholar Laurette Diel:
"Hmm. This scholar's research doesn't go back to the First Era, and the other scholars fled? That puts a wrinkle in our plans, all right. This Pyre Watch warrior is a promising lead, though. Let's go find her and the other scholars."
:Scholar Diel says the missing scholars ran in two different directions. "I heard. Let's split up and go after them. I'll take Kerbol's Hollow. You head toward Evermore. Here, I'll mark it on your map."
::Have you ever heard of the Pyre Watch? "Yeah, my brother Fennorian told me about one he encountered. They're the guardians of an ancient mass grave where the remains of the Gray Host are said to be interred. Probably knows more than the scholars. Find them and meet me back here."
:::I'll meet you back here with the scholars.
After rescuing the scholars:
"Good, you're back. I found Jeanard and I see you managed to return with the rest. Show-off. Now that we settled that matter, what did the Pyre Watch warrior tell you about the Gray Host?"
:Shelaria said the historical record is incomplete concerning the details of the Gray Host. "I was afraid of that. So much about the First Era has been lost. I wonder if the Pyre Watch knows anything about the other details we learned. About the survivor and their connection to a Direnni noble."
::She confirmed there was a survivor. And they may have taken sanctuary in Viridian Watch. "That matches what we already uncovered and confirms the Direnni connection. Did you find out anything else I should know?"
:::Apparently the legend says the way to safety was only available to those worthy to receive it. "A riddle. Damn it, there's always a riddle. Well, I say we go to Viridian Watch and figure this out on our own. I'll mark the location on your map. Now let's go before Scholar Diel tries to regale me with more tales of the Knights of Saint Pelin."
::::I'll meet you inside Viridian Watch.
After she spots the sigil:
"It makes so much sense! The riddle. Only those worthy can find the way to safety … only vampires and werewolves can see these sigils! That explains why no one ever found anything."
:I don't see any sigils. "That's because you aren't a vampire or a werewolf! Hold on, I've got just the thing. Here, a blood pendant. It lets me share some of my vampiric essence so you can see the sigils too. It's perfectly safe. At least, Fennorian said it was harmless."
::What's our next step? "We follow the sigils, of course! The Gray Host survivor must have used these as a guide, and they were made for that specific purpose. Now, let's see where they lead."
:::All right, let's go!
After picking up the Odd Signet:
"I … recognize this signet. But, that doesn't make any sense.
:Does it have something to do with the Gray Host? "I don't know. No, this can't be … but it is, isn't it? Damn it. I don't like where this is going."
::What's wrong? "I've seen this signet before. Or one just like it. My mentor, Count Verandis, had one. But why would he have something connected to the Gray Host? That doesn't make any sense."
:::There has to be an explanation. "You're … right, of course. There must be something we're missing. We need answers, and there's only one place to find them. Ravenwatch Castle in Rivenspire. Let's go. I'll explain more when we get there. I need time to think."
::::Let's head for the castle now. <Fast Travel>
::::I want to look around some more first. 
At Ravenwatch Castle:
"Good. You made it. So, I've had some time to think. I know this may seem a little unorthodox but I want to go into the castle through the secret passage."
:Secret passage? But isn't this your castle? "Yes, but we just learned that Count Verandis, my friend, my mentor, and the leader of House Ravenwatch, possesses a Gray Host signet. That disturbs me, and I'm not disturbed easily. I want to investigate this quietly, without attracting attention."
::Can't you just ask Count Verandis where he got the signet? "I don't want to do that until I have more information. Verandis and I … we're …. Look, I'm not just going to run in there and hurl accusations at him. Especially about something this serious. I want to figure this out before I confront him."
:::So what do you want to do? "Verandis stores relics he's collected over the centuries in the castle cellar. Always keeps the door locked tight. I trust Verandis, but I need to see what he's hiding. I hope this is all a misunderstanding. That I'm wrong about all this. We'll see."
::::Let's investigate the castle cellar.
After reading the letter:
"That letter. Please tell me it's just an old to-do list or something, and not actually proof that the man I trusted with my life was involved with the Gray Host."
:The letter suggests Count Verandis was a member of the Gray Host. "What? Verandis, how could you? I don't want to believe it and yet here it is, right before my very eyes. Why didn't he ever tell me? I thought I knew everything there was to know about him. No, there has to be more. What else does the letter say?"
::It mentions an island and a Gray Host castle. There's a map, too. "It's possible that castle no longer exists, but … I want to go. I refuse to believe Verandis was part of the Gray Host. There has to be more to this. Some piece of the puzzle that makes sense of everything. Are you still with me?"
:::I'll go with you to investigate the Gray Host castle. "Thank you. The cart's still waiting outside. We'll take it to the docks and travel by boat from there as we follow this map. Go on ahead. I want to take one more look around. Make sure we didn't miss anything."
::::I'll meet you by the cart.
By the cart:
"I think I'm as ready as I'll ever be. Delaying the inevitable won't help anyone. And it won't get me the answers I need. Come on, let's go see what's on this secret island."
:What do you think we'll find on this secret island? "Answers, I hope. Look, I have to do this. I'm going to see this journey through, no matter what truth waits at the end. Let's just go. The sooner we get this over with, the better. First, however, take this. You earned it."
Show: The Gray Council
At the start of the quest:
"That letter we found. I can't believe Verandis was a part of something as evil as the Gray Host. I guess we need to go to the secret island. And the castle, if it still exists. I won't rest until I learn the truth. The whole truth."
:How exactly do we get to this secret island? "We follow the map! We'll take the cart to Shornhelm's coast, hire a ship, and sail to the spot indicated on the back of the letter. Fingers crossed, we'll be there faster than you can say gorapple pie."
::And what do we do when we get there? "Look around. And hopefully find nothing. Determine this was all just a big misunderstanding. That Verandis was never a member of the Gray Host. If not, then I suppose I want to find undeniable proof that my mentor was a monster. So, can we go now?"
:::I'm ready to travel to the Gray Host's island. "This still doesn't feel entirely real. I can't believe we found a letter tying Verandis to the Gray Host. From Rada al-Saran of all people! At least there's a map. Let's find this damned island and finish this. The cart's waiting."
::::Remind me. Why are we going to this island again? "We discovered a signet that looks just like one my mentor, Count Verandis used to have. A signet that belonged to Rada al-Saran! When we searched Ravenwatch Castle, we found an old letter to Verandis, requesting he come to a secret island."
:::::What do we know about this secret island? "Not much. The letter mentioned a name. Grayhome. Kind of pretentious, if you ask me. And there's supposed to be a castle. If it's still there after all these centuries, maybe we can learn more about Verandis and his connection to the Gray Host."
:::::You really think Count Verandis was part of an army of vampires and werewolves? "I don't know what to think. Maybe he was forced to join them, or lied to, or tricked, orâ€”you know what? Speculating is pointless. We have an island to find. Let's get on with it."
:::::We never found Verandis's signet. "No, but I'm sure it was the same as the one from Viridian Watch. Not that it matters. You read the damned letter. It proves … I don't know what it proves! That my mentor might have been part of a cabal of vampires that tried to conquer Tamriel?"
In Grayhome:
"This is where the map led us. A lovely and ominous spot for a foreboding Gray Host castle, don't you think? If we can't find something about Rada al-Saran and Verandis here, then I'm not sure where else to look."
:How do you want to do this? "While it seems obvious to start with the unnecessarily ostentatious vampire castle over there, I think we should survey the island first. The Gray Host may be gone, but they could have left traps. And who knows what kind of wildlife lives here."
::What kind of traps? "I don't know! Something gothic and ridiculous. I don't like to generalize, but vampires tend toward the dramatic. Just be careful. We won't learn anything about Verandis and the Gray Host if we go and get ourselves killed."
:::Let's go look around the island.
After finding the first crystal:
"Did you see that? That crystal thing clearly reacted. It pulsed as I approached it!"
:Do you think it's some kind of trap? "Well, it hasn't exploded or fried us to a crisp yet, so I'm thinking no, probably not. I've seen something like this before. Part of a ward. I think it responds to the presence of a vampire, like those sigils we saw."
::So what do we do with these crystals? "Now that they're awake, it should be simple enough to deactivate them. I'm not sure if your eyes are as good as mine, but I think I see a few more up ahead. I'll keep watch while you deal with the crystals."
:::I'll try to deactivate the crystals.
In Grayhome Castle:
"This place must have been impressive back in the day, but now it's just decrepit. Looks like it's been abandoned for centuries. Luckily, I came prepared. How do you feel about trying something unconventional?"
:What do you mean, unconventional? "The members of House Ravenwatch exchange vials of their own blood. That shows a rare level of trust, even among vampires, since blood can be used in all sorts of spells—both beneficial and harmful. I brought some of Verandis's blood with me."
::How is Verandis's blood going to help us? "By putting a drop of his blood in this potion, we can dream-walk and access any memories Verandis has of this place. I'll leave it here on the table for when you're ready. I'd drink it myself, but a dream-walk requires an impartial participant."
:::Is a dream-walk dangerous? "Dangerous? Not usually. The potion mixes alchemy and magic. Verandis's own design. It lets the imbiber experience the memories of the person whose blood is added to the concoction. The potion is on the table. Make sure you drink the whole thing."
::::I'll drink the dream-walk potion and find out what I can.
After waking up:
"You cried out in your sleep just before you woke up. What happened? Are you all right?"
:I went to Verandis's study in the dream and tried to read his journal. "Oh, that would explain it. Don't worry, it's not you. It's almost impossible to read in a dream-walk. But did you say Verandis's study? He had a study in this terrible place? Was he truly a member of the Gray Host?"
::He was. And something called the Gray Council. But he wanted them to make peace with mortals. "Sounds like Verandis. That's why he founded the Ravenwatch, after all. To allow vampires like us to gather safely, only feed on willing subjects, and help mortals instead of preying upon them. So, he wasn't hoping to conquer Tamriel?"
:::No. He argued for an alliance with mortals. He truly wanted peace. "Then … he didn't lie to me. He's still the man I know and trust. He left out a few things, of course, but I'll deal with that another time. That study of his. It might still be here! Can you lead me to it?"
::::I can lead you to the study.
After reading Verandis's Journal:
"The journal was still here? Amazing! What did it say?"
:Verandis attempted to resurrect humans and vampires using stone husks. "Let me see that. Huh. Ritual's simple enough. Just light some candles and place the reliquary. It looks like he abandoned the research before ever testing it on a vampire. Something about life energy and too great a cost."
::So what do we do now? "When a vampire dies, our souls go to Coldharbour. We can use that to our advantage. If we want answers, why not go straight to the source. Let's resurrect one of these Gray Host leaders. A member of this Gray Council Verandis wrote about."
:::You want to pull a member of the Gray Council out of Coldharbour? "Why not? They're evil. Who cares what the ritual does to them? We have to interrogate them and find some weakness. Some way to stop the Gray Host. Go downstairs and find the reliquary Verandis wrote about. Then meet me in the ritual chamber."
::::I'll go get the reliquary.
After speaking with Verandis:
"I started looking for information about the Gray Host and discovered that my mentor had a hand in their creation. Verandis may have kept his past a secret, but at least we know he opposed their plans for conquest. He wasn't a part of their war."
:Verandis has promised to help you find out more about the Gray Host and their current plans. "I heard what he said. I'm still angry that he kept this part of his past a secret, but we'll work it out. Eventually. In the meantime, at least I know I can trust him. That he didn't betray the ideals of House Ravenwatch."
::So you're going to work with him on this? "Of course. There's too much at stake to let a few secrets get in our way. I'll help him in whatever way I can. And once we know more, we'll send for you. I figure you want to see how this ends just as much as we do."
:::Anything else I can help with at the moment? "Take this, my friend. You earned it. For helping me learn more about Rada al-Saran and the Gray Host, and for discovering the true connection between Verandis and the Gray Council. When you're ready for a reckoning, House Ravenwatch will contact you."
After finishing the quest:
"Verandis and I need to talk. A lot. But as soon as we're finished, we'll find a way to stop whatever the Gray Host has planned. Rest assured, you'll be the first person we call. We're in this together."

;Eat too fast
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "Gwendis, my child, slow down. You eat too fast. You don't want to harm poor Kallin."
Gwendis: "We need to eat to get stronger. When Montclair shows up, I want to be ready!"
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "That is not our way, child, and you know it. Stop feating. Now!"
Gwendis: "Fine. Whatever. I mean, I'm sorry, Count Verandis. You know I only want to help."
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "Of course, my child. Now, let's clear away our meal and welcome our friend. Kallin, as always, I thank you for sharing your life's blood with us."
Kallin: "I live to pelase, my lord."
;The Doomcrag
Baroness Leila Montclair: "We shouldn't have left the guards behind, Wylon. Who knows what else we're going to run into?"
Lleraya Montclair: "There was no choice, Mother. You're getting worse and we can't wait for them."
Gwendis: "I'll stay here and protect the way out. Keep watch in case the guards catch up with us. The rest of you need to keep moving."
Baron Wylon Montclair: "Thank you, Gwendis. At least you retain a sense of honor."
Baroness Leila Montclair: "Wylon, you have to stop blaming Verandis. This wasn't his fault."
;Doomcrag Ritual
Baron Wylon Montclair: "Have no fear, my darling Leila. Soon the light will wash away your pain."
Reezal-Jul: "It's going to work, Baron. The power of this ancient Ayleid remnant … it's almost overwhelming."
Lleraya: "You're going to be all right, Mother. Just hold on."
Baron Wylon Montclair: "The remnant will make you like new, my love! You'll be reborn!"
Lleraya: "Something's … happening. I feel … the power!"
Baroness Leila Montclair: "Wylon! Something feels … wrong …."
Baron Wylon Montclair: "Verandis, we need you! We need your power! Quickly! Touch the relic and help us!"
[After Verandis joins]
Baron Wylon Montclair: "Anyamis alata! Malatua latta mitta jorane mori! Vasha anya belda sancre!"
Lleraya: "Father …. what … what's hapening to us?"
Reezal-Jul: "It's working! It's working! Soon the power will be ours to command!"
Baroness Leila Montclair: "No! What … what have you done? This isn't me! I … I never wanted this! Please, Verandis. Help me! Make it stop! I … I can't stand the pain. End this, Verandis. End this before I … arrgh!"
Baron Wylon Montclair: "No! Verandis! What did you do to Leila? What did you do? You'll pay for that, vampire! I have the power now. Nothing can stop me from reaching out and snapping …"
Gwendis: "Verandis? Montclair, no! Come on, Verandis, we need to get out of here!"
;Northpoint in Peril
Gwendis: "My, my, Sir Darien. That was impressive. But when it comes to smuggler's tunnels, I think there's a thing or two I can teach you."
Darien Gautier: "I'm not sure how to respond to that. Why don't you find out what our vampire vixen is talking about."
;Safe House
Skordo the Knife: "Lleraya has been here all along? And your son didn't do a damn thing about it?"
Baron Alard Dorell: "According to Ellic's journal, yes. He seems to have been infested with the woman. Didn't even get alarmed when she started turning people into bloodfiends."
Skordo the knife: "More bloodfiends? I hate this. Just give me something to hit already! But it doesn't sound like your son betrayed Northpoint, Baron."
Gwendis: "It's the Remnant. It put Ellic under her spell. I'm surprised he was even able to write in his journal. Maybe that was his way of warning us."
;Power of the Remnant:
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "You must do exactly as I taught you. The power of the Remnant will call to you, tempt you. You must be strong enough to withstand that lure."
Gwendis: "I'm ready for this. You know that. Stop treating me like I'm a novice, Verandis. I won't fail you. I won't let you down."
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "You have never disappointed me, Gwendis. But the Remnant is more powerful than you can imagine. Be on your guard. Now head inside. I'll join you in a moment."
;Montclair's Trap
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "This is where it happened. Where Leila died and Montclair … changed."
Gwendis: "Where are Montclair's forces? I thought for sure we'd have to fight a horde of bloodfiends to make it through this place."
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "Montclair is a strategist. He's waiting for us to make a mistake that he can take advantage of. I fear tat mistake is about to be made."
Baron Alard Dorell: "Soldiers, spread out! Secure the chamber!"
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "You should have heeded my warning, Baron. This is no place for you."
Countess Eselde Tamrith: "You would deny our moment of glory, Count? The Light shines on us this day!"
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "There is no light here, Countess. Only darkness and death."
Countess Eselde Tamrith: "Arkay protect us! What is that?"
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "Baron Montclair. He's here."
Baron Alard Dorell: "Troops! On my command!"
Baron Wylon Montclair: "Welcome, Verandis! And like a good guest, I see you've brought me gifts to play with. Allow me to grant my blessing to your army."
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "This is exactly what I feared! He's turned our own troops into bloodfiends!"
Baron Wylon Montclair: "How does it feel to watch those who you care about turn against you, Verandis? How does it feel?"
[After the battle]
Baron Wylon Montclair: "My wife … my daughter … you've taken everything I ever loved, Verandis!"
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "Wylon, I'm sorry. I never meant for any of this to happen."
Baron Wylon Montclair: "My daughter loved you, Verandis. She loved you!"
Gwendis: "The Remnant … the power. It drove Lleraya insane! Are those giant skeletons?"
[After the second battle]
Baron Wylon Montclair: "You've grown strong, Verandis. Your allies grant you strength."
Baron Alard Dorell: "Come out and face us, you coward! You can't hide from us forever!"
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "Wylon, please. We can find a way to free you from this power."
Baron Wylon Montclair: "To what end, my old friend? My wife is dead. My daughter, killed by your own hand. What do I have, if not this power? I think I'd prefer to let you experience my pain. My suffering. To let you see what it's like to lose everything you hold dear!"
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "No, Montclair! Stop this madness!"
Baron Wylon Montclair: "Come, Gwendis. You look famished. Allow me to prepare you a feast fit for my new queen!"
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "No, Montclair! Please!"
;Gwendis' Torture
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "Gwendis? What has he done to you?"
Gwendis: "Verandis … help. Please, help me. Their blood … smells so good! These restraints. They won't hold me back much longer."
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "You must control yourself, Gwendis. We'll find a way to get you out of there. Show yourself, Wylon! Tell me what you want! Damn you Montclair! Answer me! I'm sorry, my friend, but it seems we're going to have to play Montclair's game to free the others."
;Gwendis' Freedom
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "The power is dropping! Gwendis, are you all right?"
Gwendis: "I … I did it. I resisted! I didn't feed. Wait, what happened to the nobles? Did … did I remember wrong?"
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "They're fine. Merely unconscious. I'm proud of your restraint, Gwendis."
Darien Gautier: "What's going on in here? Is the Countess all right?"
Skordo the Knife: "Damn it, Darien! Slow down! Wait for me, you long-legged bastard."
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "The Baron and the Countess are fine. But you both arrived just in time to move them to safety."
Darien Gautier: "Take them out? But we just got here. We want to help take down Montclair! Neither of us had a good fight in … well, it's been at least a couple minutes."
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "No, Darien. This battle is not one that you and Skordo can win. Leave Montclair to us."
Darien Gautier: "But … but … oh, very well! But I get to help take down the next would-be world conquerer we come across. Deal?"
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "As you wish, brave Darien, as you wish. And now, my friend, the time has come to face Montclair."
;The Gray Council
After reviving Exarch Turvon:
Gwendis: "Don't move, exarch! We've got questions."
Exarch Turvon: "So … hungry!
Gwendis: "Fine! You want to fight? Let's do this!"
When Verandis arrives:
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "Gwendis, what have you done?"
Gwendis: "Verandis! What are you doing here?"
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "Who do you think sealed this place, child? I came as soon as my wards were disturbed."
Gwendis: "Verandis, you should have told me about the Gray Council!"
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "So you know, Gwendis? Come, let us all speak outside."
After finishing the quest:
Gwendis: "So, any other thousand-year-old secrets I should know about?"
Count Verandis Ravenwatch: "Do you really want to hear all the sordid details of my past, Gwendis?"
