This island is not as far away from Khorinis as I thought.
Diego
I didn't know about it. But now, of course, a few things are becoming clear to me.
Diego
I had always asked myself how the orcs could keep their supplies coming so fast.
Diego
With this outpost, that's a piece of cake.
Diego
On your way to the interior of the island, you are probably going to encounter a trap or two.
Diego
If you think you are stuck at some point, come to me. Maybe my experience can help you.
Me
I need your advice.
Me
An orcish colonel has his headquarters up there. I can't get any further to the interior of the island from there.
Diego
Orcs are smart creatures. They are often underestimated. I assume they have a secret passage of some sort. Search the walls for secret switches.
Diego
Remember, however, that switches must often be used in a certain order before they have any effect.
Me
I have fought with a dragon, and now I'm facing an abyss with a drawbridge. The bridge has been hauled up, and I cannot get across.
Diego
Mmh. Have you already tried a ranged weapon? Maybe the mechanism could be activated with a shot.
Me
I'm facing a host of undead and their complicated traps.
Diego
I'm sorry, I have no experience with the undead. You're on your own with this one.
Diego
Come see me again when you have a problem which my experience can solve.
Diego
One more thing. I'd rather that you didn't draw all the creatures that crawl around here to the ship. I hope this orc raid was the last attack I had to fend off here!
Me
I need ammunition.
Diego
Maybe I can help you.
Me
Train me.
Diego
What is it you need?
Diego
Life will be much easier for you if you always try to stay out of the line of fire.
Diego
When you move, always have the litheness of a cat in mind. The rest will follow automatically.
Diego
For best results, put in a lot of dry practice.
Diego
To steady your hand, breathe out slowly while you aim.
Diego
It was high time. It's strange you've never learned this ability before.
Me
It's all over. Now we can get out of here.
Diego
Now will you look at this. I've never seen such a construction all my life.
Diego
How in earth did you manage to get past that thing?
Me
I was lucky, I suppose.
Diego
(laughs) If you say so.
Diego
Fine.
Me
What are you going to do now?
Diego
That's a good question. I think I'll go back to Khorinis first.
Diego
There's no more thieves' guild there. That opens up some interesting possibilities.
Diego
Mmh. Or maybe I'll simply take over Bromor's business. There's always money in that. Honest money.
