Edgor | It was nice knowing you... | |
Me | How's it going? | |
Edgor | You want to know how it's going? I'll tell you how it's going. | |
Edgor | First some pirates brought me here on a stormy night. Man, I barfed all over that nutshell. | |
Edgor | Then Raven locked up the mine because some idiots are too greedy for gold. | |
Edgor | And then Franco became the leader of the hunters, killing anybody who's against him. | |
Edgor | I'd say it's going pretty badly. | |
Me | How did Franco get to be leader? | |
Edgor | Quite simply. He killed Fletcher. He was the leader of the hunters before. | |
Edgor | Fletcher was okay. Franco's just jerking us all around. | |
Me | Franco sent me here about that stone tablet. Have you found it? | |
Edgor | Man, I haven't even looked for it. All I know is it's supposed to be in this old building deep in the swamp. | |
Edgor | And my inner voice tells me, 'Edgor, stay far away from old buildings deep in the swamp.' | |
Edgor | I certainly won't risk my ass for that bum Franco! | |
Me | Where exactly is this old building? | |
Edgor | Just go left past the big rock here. After a while you'll come to another big rock. | |
Edgor | You have to go left or right past that one - I don't know any more, it was too long ago. | |
Edgor | But the ruins are supposed to be on some sort of rise. All but hidden among plants. | |
Edgor | Maybe you'll get lucky and you won't find it... | |
Me | I found the stone tablet! | |
Edgor | (bored) Really? You must be a brave guy. | |
Edgor | (bored) Then you've certainly earned your way into the camp. (yawns) | |
Me | Can you teach me something? | |
Edgor | I know a lot about bloodflies. I hate those miserable beasts even more than I hate Franco! | |
Edgor | But I know how to tear the stingers and wings from their dead bodies. (crazily) Yeah, tear them out... | |
Edgor | Besides that, I know how to remove the secretion from the stinger. | |
Edgor | If you want, I can teach you all that junk. | |
Edgor | Of course, nothing is for free out here... | |
Edgor | Get me the gold. I only want coins, not nuggets. | |
Me | About the bloodflies... | |
Edgor | What do you want to know? | |
Me | How do I get the stingers from the bloodflies? | |
Edgor | Turn the dead beasts onto their belly and cut them open crosswise. Grasp the innards and cut through all the tissue at the back. | |
Edgor | Then you can remove the stinger with a jerk. | |
Me | How do I get the wings? | |
Edgor | Grab the wings with one hand. With the other you just cut them out along with the upper layer of skin. | |
Me | How do I remove the secretion from the bloodflies. | |
Edgor | Cut open the upper layer of the stinger lengthwise - then the healing secretion will flow right out. | |
Edgor | That way it's completely safe to suck out a stinger - or use it for some potions. | |
