Dialogue[edit]

Pre-Event start
Stoic Alder: Our tale starts, as most do, with deceptively humble beginnings.
Stoic Alder: The wayfinder happened upon a quaint supply caravan at the foot of the mountain.
Kodan Cub: "Supply caravan"? Ugh. Boooring.
Kodan Cub: Yeah, when do we get to the exciting part?
Stoic Alder: All in good time, young ones. I am setting the stage, as all good ashmakers do.
Stoic Alder: Distant Memory was glad to have the wayfinder's assistance.
Distant Memory: I am glad to have your assistance, Wayfinder!
Stoic Alder: And with that, they began their trek into the mountain to deliver their precious cargo.
First ambush
Stoic Alder: Suddenly, an ambush!
Kodan Cub: (gasps)
Kodan Cub: (gasps)
Stoic Alder: The dolyak stopped in its tracks, frozen in fear. Titanspawn swarmed the caravan.
Kodan Cub: Nobody can stop the wayfinder! They're the strongest!
First ambush completed
Distant Memory: Should be all of them, that it should. Let us be on our way.
Second ambush
Stoic Alder: Refusing to relent, another wave of the stranger's spawn attacked the caravan.
Second ambush completed
Stoic Alder: With the path now clear, the dolyak was free to continue up the trail.
Arrival at basecamp
Stoic Alder: Thanks to the wayfinder's efforts, the caravan reached its destination.
Kodan Cub: Yay!
Kodan Cub: Yeah!
Stoic Alder: Ah, but do not be so quick to celebrate, small cubs. For the real challenge had only just begun.
Stoic Alder: The caravan was transporting parts for a very important device: a tectonic thumper.
Kodan Cub: What does "tectonic" mean, Stoic Alder?
Stoic Alder: Well, you see, it's...erm. Hm.
Stoic Alder: Irrelevant. Just know that this device was an essential tool in the wayfinder's triumph over the titan.
Stoic Alder: As our intrepid band of heroes set up camp, an Astral Ward lieutenant approached the wayfinder.
Stoic Alder: Her name was Vetia Foerazer, and she was the inventor of the tectonic thumper.
Vetia Foerazer: You there! Stop dawdling and make yourself useful!
Stoic Alder: She was rather rude.
Thumper event start
Vetia Foerazer: This thumper may be up and running, but it requieres calibrated magic to work optimally.
Vetia Foerazer: Go sniff out a few suitable spots to build some calibration thumpers with that..."journeykin" of yours.
Vetia Foerazer: Take the necessary supplies from the dolyak.
Stoic Alder: Mechanically and efficiently, the thumper immediately got to work.
???
Stoic Alder: Packs of titanspawn patrolled the mountain diligently.
Kodan Cub: Aw, they're not so tought. The wayfinder can handle them!
Stoic Alder: On their own, perhaps, yes. But, if allowed to grow in number, they could overwhelm the camp.
Stoic Alder: Potentially very troublesome.
???
Stoic Alder: Suddenly, the mountain erupted, releasing hellish flames from its scorching maw.
Stoic Alder: This was no mountain at all, but a volcano!
Stoic Alder: Vetia checked the central thumper's readings.
Vetia Foerazer: Hmmm. That's odd.
Stoic Alder: Something was clearly stealing magic from it. But what?
Stoic Alder: The wayfinder's journeykin anxiously sniffed about. Perhaps it sensed something.
Stoic Alder: An unsettling, eerie fog rolled in, covering the mountainside like a blanket.
Kodan Cub: (gasp) The Mists Tides!
Stoic Alder: Indeed
Stoic Alder: The heroes'teamwork was bearing fruit. They were nearly ready to draw out the wicked titan.
Stoic Alder: The titan was most displeased with the thumper and sent its underlings to sabotage it.
Decima appearance
Stoic Alder: The ground shook under the full force of the tectonice thumper. The mighty machine rattled the mountain's very core.
Stoic Alder: Unable to stand the noise and fury any longer, the titan at last angrily surfaced.
Stoic Alder: Her name was Decima. And she was most displeased.
Stoic Alder: "You will regret this disruption, small things,"she bellowed from atop the mountain.
Kodan Cub: OOOOOH!
Kodan Cub: Go get her, Wayfinder!
Decima, the Stormsinger: Who shall I strike down first...?
Stoic Alder: As the wayfinder reached the top of the mountain, a ghostly image of Distant Memory appeared.
Stoic Alder: Through a focused mind, he channeled his energies, forming a link between the mountaintop and the camp.
Kodan Cub: Whoa, Distant Memory is so strong!
Distant Memory: The thumper requires more fuel, Wayfinder. Deliver me any essence that is dropped, and I will feed it.
Distant Memory: Wayfinder! I have momentarily linked our spirits. Continue collecting fuel for the thumper.
Decima fight quotes
Decima, the Stormsinger: (snarls)
Decima, the Stormsinger: Brave, small things.
Decima, the Stormsinger: We always rise, and you will always fail.
Decima runs for the first time.
Kodan Cub: No fair! She ran away!
Distant Memory: I will channel it into the machine directly through you.
Stoic Alder: That she did. But the wayfinder was hot on her trail.
Stoic Alder: With the help of their faithful journeykin, they sniffed out the direction she fled and gave chase.
Decima runs for the second time
Kodan Cub: Quit running away, you big dumb titan!
Decima runs for the third time
Kodan Cub: Go, Wayfinder!
Kodan Cub: Yeah! you can do it!
Decima dies
Decima, the Stormsinger: Die!
Decima, the Stormsinger: (groans)
Stoic Alder: At last, after much struggle and effort, the titan writhed about and roared in pain.
Stoic Alder: She was defeated. They wayfinder was victorious.
Kodan Cub: YAAAAY!
Kodan Cub: YAAAAY!
Kodan Cub: The wayfinder sure is strong.
Stoic Alder: Indeed. They are a mighty warrior. One that I'm honored to have fought alongside.
Stoic Alder: But it was not their strength alone that won the day.
Stoic Alder: It was everyone's. The kodan people. The Astral Ward.
Stoic Alder: All of us putting aside our differences and fighting the insurmountable, as one.
Stoic Alder: When we all work together, the mountains shake and titans fall. Always remember that, young ones.
