» Speak to The Chieftain **[-1663 45 -1961]**

**Dialogue:**

* What's this? A runeholder dares enter our village?
* Now that is intriguing. A runeholder possessing the stamp of our ancestors.
* You truly are an interesting fellow. What is your business here?
* You want to know more about magic, huh? Too many of you young people get corrupted by it. My advice is to forget all about magic.
* But since you came all the way here... I can't exactly turn down a plea from a guest.
* Fine, I shall tell you what you want to know at the banquet today.
* But since you are a viking, after all, you must do your part in the preparations.

**Dialogue:**

* Please, take a seat.
* I am sure everyone else here does not need reminding of our past.
* However, I shall educate our guest about what happened. Maybe then they will make the right decision.
* Long ago, us vikings lived united. The place now known as Wintervale did not exist.
* Everything changed when the runes were discovered. Suddenly, our bonds were tested unlike in any war before.
