| Me | What are you standing around here for? | |
| Jergan | I come from the castle. They've sent me to look for those missing, and to check out the area. | |
| Me | Those missing? | |
| Jergan | Some fled when the dragons attacked. Most of them didn't make it - no surprise there! | |
| Jergan | But if there are any survivors left, I'll bring them back. | |
| Me | Can you help me get into the castle? | |
| Jergan | Sure, but you have to do me a favor. | |
| Jergan | If you can make it to the castle, talk to the paladin Oric. Tell him that his brother bought it up there at the pass. | |
| Me | What do I need to know about this area? | |
| Jergan | If you want to live, go back to wherever you came from. | |
| Jergan | The greenhides have laid siege to the castle for weeks now - and those dragons are hiding out somewhere, too. | |
| Jergan | The entire Valley of Mines is teeming with orcs - no matter where you're headed, this won't be a picnic. | |
| Me | How can I get into the castle? | |
| Jergan | First of all, you can forget the direct path. But if you walk around the castle, you might have a chance from the back. | |
| Jergan | You should stay away from the paths and use the river. It will be best if you swim downstream for a stretch. It should be easier from there. | |
| Jergan | The orcs have set up a ram behind the castle. You can get in that way - creep up on the orcs as closely as you can, and then run for it. | |
| Jergan | You might just make it if you're fast enough. | |
| Me | What are you doing here? | |
| Jergan | I'm a scout. I roam the country. But all those snappers haven't made it easy for me. | |
| Jergan | It's a good time to land a few trophies - provided you know what you're doing. | |
| Me | Can you teach me how to do that? | |
| Jergan | I can show you how to pull the claws off those things once they're dead. | |
| Me | Show me how to pull claws. | |
| Jergan | The important thing is to remove the claws with a jerk. Don't be too hesitant, and don't go poking with a blade. | |
| Jergan | You don't only pull the claws from snappers that way, but also from lizards and shadowbeasts. | |
| Me | Do you know where Diego got to? | |
| Jergan | Diego? He was one of Silvestro's scrapers. But he's made himself scarce. | |
| Jergan | I saw him with two knights and a box, not so far from here. | |
| Jergan | You can see the old watchtower from here, right? Go over there, and then towards the castle. | |
| Jergan | A path leads through the rocks to the right. That's where they went. | |
| Jergan | So you killed the leader of the pack. And - did you get the claws off that beast? | |
| Me | Yes. | |
| Jergan | They're certainly worth a lot. There are some fellows who collect this stuff. | |
| Jergan | If you find the right buyer, you'll get a heap of gold for that. | |
| Me | No. | |
| Jergan | You should do that. I'm sure they're worth a fortune. | |
