Arenlona 	If a lifetime of meticulous research into the advancement of the agricultural arts has taught me anything, it is that the fruits of knowledge are incapable of preserving themselves. Without an adventurer's brawn to protect them, I fear all my work will come to naught.
Arenlona 	Take, for example, the splendid ogre pumpkin crop I was able to cultivate. Years of hypothesizing and testing at last made tangible, only to be snatched away by those subterranean sorners, the clever hedgemoles.
Arenlona 	I've already engineered the pumpkins to resist fire, drought, frost, weeds, insects, and festive rituals; I just need someone to kill the moles.
 	
Arenlona 	Well, that was so easy, it makes me wonder why I've spent my life formulating complex solutions to problems rather than merely going around killing things.
Arenlona 	Nevertheless, I'm afraid it's too late to alter my methods now. I'll continue to focus on the complex solutions, and have you stick around to kill things.
Arenlona 	What hubris! What arrogance to believe that I, one woman alone, could overcome the unfathomably vast and profound mysteries of nature... But with you here, I'm sure we can do it.
