Opolos	Hello, you must be the new fellow.
Opolos	I'm Opolos. I take care of the sheep around here.
Me	I've got this mutton sausage here ...
Opolos	Oh, man, fantastic! Finally another delicious mutton sausage.
Me	How long have you been in the monastery?
Opolos	I've been here three years. But so far I haven't studied, although I'd like to.
Me	Why not?
Opolos	My job is looking after the sheep - not studying the scriptures.
Opolos	And as long as Master Parlan doesn't release me from this duty, I'm not allowed to study in the library.
Me	How shall I act here in the monastery?
Opolos	Never lie to a magician. Don't transgress against a brother of the community.
Opolos	Respect the property of the community. If you violate these rules, you have to pay a penalty to Master Parlan.
Opolos	Apart from that, I can only advise you to be careful around Agon. If you don't watch out, you'll end up like Babo.
Me	Is there anything you can teach me?
Opolos	Sure, I used to beat up people. I can show you how to strengthen your arms.
Opolos	But I'd like to learn something about potions, especially about magic potions.
Me	How can I help you with that?
Opolos	Well, if you work for Neoras you'll certainly have an opportunity to 'borrow' one of his recipes for a short time.
Opolos	If you bring it to me so that I can take a look at it, I'll train you.
Me	I've got the recipe you wanted.
Opolos	Good, then let me read it.
Opolos	Aha ... hm ... yes ... I see ... well, well ...
Opolos	Good, thanks a lot. If you want, you can train with me.
Me	I already brought the recipe back to Neoras.
Opolos	Oh shit - I'll probably never get to study here. So what. I'll train you anyway.
Me	I'll get back to that later.
Me	I want to become stronger.
Opolos	You're pretty strong now. I can't teach you any more.
Me	Who are Agon and Babo?
Opolos	Agon takes care of the herb garden. He's also a novice, but he acts like he was the Chosen One himself.
Opolos	Babo came to the monastery shortly before you. At first he helped Agon in the herb garden.
Opolos	But they must have had a fight, and Babo has been sweeping the courtyard ever since.
Me	Do you know what happened?
Opolos	Not exactly. You'll have to ask them. But Agon's word has more weight than that of the other novices because he's the governor's nephew.
Me	Look here, I brought Betsy. Can I leave her with you?
Opolos	Yes, of course. Good-looking animal. I'll take good care of her.
Me	Hm...somehow I seem to have misplaced it. I'll come back later.
Me	About the library ...
Opolos	That's the locked room to the left, next to the gate.
Opolos	But you'll only get the key when Master Parlan decides that you may study the teachings.
Opolos	You lucky duck! You got the key to the library, even though you've only been here for a short while.
Opolos	Use your chance and study the old scriptures!
Opolos	Hello. Thank you for helping me. I shall make the most of this chance and learn a lot.
Opolos	But you certainly don't have time now to talk to a simple novice, Master.
Me	How's it going?
Opolos	Great. Since I've been allowed to study, everything is wonderful.
Opolos	I loyally fulfill all of the tasks given me, Master.
Opolos	Every day, Innos sets new challenges before me. I'll continue to work on improving myself.
Me	How are the sheep?
Opolos	How do you think they are? They stand around and munch grass.
Opolos	I'd rather know what's happening outside. The magicians seem to be very nervous.
Me	There are dragons in the Valley of Mines. They are besieging the royal troops together with the army of orcs.
Opolos	Dragons - I always thought they only existed in horror stories.
Me	They are there, believe me.
Opolos	But the king's paladins will deal with them, won't they?
Me	We'll see.
Me	Strangers in black robes roam the countryside.
Opolos	What do you mean? What sort of strangers?
Me	Nobody knows where they've come from. They wear long, black robes, and they cover their faces.
Me	They seem to be some kind of magician. At least they are capable of magic.
Opolos	That sounds very disturbing, but I'm sure that the High Council will solve this problem.
Me	Pedro betrayed us.
Opolos	I'd heard that, but I didn't know that you were aware of that, too. That's why I didn't say anything.
Opolos	Is the enemy stronger than us - I mean, can we defeat him?
Me	We're not dead yet.
