Bestowal Dialogue

Edgar Standish: 'You have gained some measure of fame as a Captain of Men, {PLAYER}, and your name is spoken by those in need of hope. A traveller gave word to me that a dwarf by the name of Jarl Copperbrace has tried to send word to you, requesting your assistance with a small matter.

'The dwarf planned to stay at the mining settlement of Othrikar, in the North Downs, for a time. If you set forth soon, you might arrive before the time for your help is past!'

'The Dourhands have been a real thorn in our side for some time now, and wherever we drive them from our lands, they find some hidden nook in which to establish themselves. They're like cave-claws in that respect, though a Dourhand generally smells worse. False-beards all!

'A party of Dourhands has taken residence in the nearby ruins of Ost Galumar, to the chagrin of my fellows here in Othrikar. I have been given several standards of the Free Peoples, and I want them raised over Ost Galumar. Speak to me when you're ready to go, and together we will travel to the ruins.'
