==Dialogue==
;Buyer Beware
"You are not Elanwe, yet you called me here. How?"
:Through words written a long time ago. "Still here after all this time … I had expected them to crumble with the ages."
::Who are you? "An old knight. Varondil the Gold, they called me! I had lands, titles, slaves …. All dust, now. Even my love has forgotten me!"
:::Your love? "Elanwe, Lady of the Weald! Surely they still sing of her? Her hair, bright as the sun! Her skin, pale as the moon. Nine years we were together, happy! Then the war … I'd gone north to fight the uprising and died there.
::::What happened? "She brought me here with words of light, but knew me not. When I went to her, she cast this barrier to keep me and all others away. I have been in this place ever since. Waiting."
:::::For what? "Release from this nightmare, what else? Elanwe remembers only the sword! Its enchantment blinds her to everything else! If I still had the sword, maybe …."
::::::Here, take the sword. "What? The sword? Give it to me! Were I alive, I could grant you such splendor! Alas, everything is dust. But I am forever in your debt."
::::::What would you do with it? "Bring her with me. To Aetherius, to whatever lies beyond."
:::Slaves? "An army of them. Side by side, they'd stretch from here to the Niben! But that was our downfall. So many slaves. We could not bring them to heel. Not all of them. They killed her before slithering away."
::::Are you buried with her? 
==Conversations==
;Buyer Beware
After Varondil returns:
Varondil: "Elanwe, at long last I return!"
Elanwe: "Varondil! You have been gone only a day, but it feels like an age."
Varondil: "Each day is an age without you."
Elanwe: "Yes, true. But you … where have you been?"
Varondil: "It is a long story, but come! Aetherius awaits!"
Elanwe: "Yes, together forever, as was always meant to be."
Varondil: "So long, my friend, and thank you. For everything!"
