You are Hortator of House Hlaalu. You have fulfilled that part of the prophecy. And you are Hortator of all three Great Houses, Redoran, Hlaalu, and Telvanni. You have fulfilled the Fourth Trial of the Seven Visions.

You are Hortator of House Hlaalu. You have fulfilled that part of the prophecy. But you must be Hortator of all three Great Houses, Redoran, Hlaalu, and Telvanni, before you have fulfilled the Fourth Trial.

I hear you have killed a Hlaalu counselor. They will never call you Hortator. And you will never fulfill the prophecies of the Nerevarine.

I hear you have killed a Hlaalu counselor. They will never call you Hortator. And you will never fulfill the prophecies of the Nerevarine.

So you have killed a Hlaalu counselor, and they will still consider naming you Hortator? I do not understand the ways of the settled peoples.

The Hlaalu are great traders, keen for profit, and subtle with words. It will be hard to find someone you can trust -- perhaps impossible. You may have to fight with words to find the truth. Beware of tricks and lies. Seek behind appearances. Look for hidden power. Be wary. Be suspicious.

You are the Hortator of House Hlaalu, %PCName.

Haw, haw, haw. You killed a Hlaalu councilor? And you think they'll make you a Hortator? Ha! Hortator? You? Never.

Haw, haw, haw. You killed a Hlaalu councilor? And you think they'll make you a Hortator? Ha! Hortator? You? Never.

Haw, haw, haw. You killed a Hlaalu councilor? And you think they'll make you a Hortator? Ha! Hortator? You? Never.

Haw, haw, haw. You killed a Hlaalu councilor? And you think they'll make you a Hortator? Ha! Hortator? You? Never.

So the other councilors agreed to name you Hortator, eh? Hope you got your money's worth. So you probably have a lot of work to do. And somewhere else to do it. Go see Crassius Curio. He's got the Belt of the Hortator, which you're supposed to wear.

I said you had my vote, and I'm a man of my word, but you have to get the other Hlaalu Councilors to agree.

A pleasure doing business with you, %PCName. And I'm a man of my word. You got my vote for the office of Hortator of House Hlaalu. Once you get everyone's vote, talk to Crassius Curio.

Go ahead. Take your time. I'm ready when you're ready.

You get my vote for Hortator of House Hlaalu when I get my 1000 drakes.

You get my vote for Hortator of House Hlaalu when I get my 2000 drakes.

You get my vote for Hortator of House Hlaalu when I get my money.

I think the Hlaalu councilors have to vote for him. And all the councilors must vote for the Hortator.

That's a touching story, but if you don't have 1000 drakes, you won't get my vote.

That's a touching story, but if you don't have 1000 drakes, you won't get my vote.

A Hortator is a war leader for a Great House. Why?

So, you want to be named Hortator of House Hlaalu? A pity. I'm afraid there are some hard feelings in the council concerning the circumstances surrounding the death of another Hlaalu councilor.

All the councilors agree? Splendid! I'm so happy for you! What an honor! But no more than you deserve, pumpkin. And now, I have a little treat for you. It's a belt given to the Hortator of House Hlaalu. Just snug it around that supple little waist. Now, I know you have important things to do, but don't be a stranger. Don't neglect poor, lonely Uncle Crassius, your devoted admirer.

You certainly won my vote. Just use your charms on the other Hlaalu councilors. I'm sure you can get them to give you anything your precious little heart desires.

What a thoughtful gift! How did you know? Gold! It's just what I wanted. And now it's time for YOUR gift... And I have just what you want. In my formal capacity as Councilor of House Hlaalu, I give you my vote for the title of Hortator. And since all the councilors agree, here's the Belt of the Horator. Just snug it around that supple little waist, and don't forget Uncle Crassius, your lonely admirer.

You can't fool Uncle Crassius. You don't have 1000 drakes.

You've broken my heart. But in time it will mend. And in the meantime, I'll console myself with your gold. And now, pumpkin, it's time for YOUR gift... And I have just what you want.

Please! Take your time, my little flower. What is a little time between such intimate friends?

As far as I recall, every one of Hlaalu's councilors must vote to choose a Hortator, and the vote must be unanimous. There must be some situation requiring a war leader, of course, and a worthy candidate who can perform a Hortator's duty.

Will you give me... a kiss?

Will you give me... a kiss?

You want to be Hortator? A pity. Orvas Dren does NOT want you to be Hortator. And very few councilors would be willing to risk Ser Dren's disapproval. But your eloquent passion, your exquisite vulnerability moves me to risk all, and defy Orvas Dren. Yes, sweetie, I will name you Hortator. But I have something to ask of you...

You want to be Hortator? A pity. Orvas Dren does NOT want you to be Hortator. And very few councilors would be willing to risk Ser Dren's disapproval. But if you were to give me a small gift of 1000 drakes, I might reconsider.

A Hortator is a Great House war leader. It's an ancient tradition, seldom invoked in modern times.

Why would I support you as Hortator for House Hlaalu? I heard you were involved in the death of a Hlaalu councilor. That just won't do. I'm afraid that makes it impossible for me to consider you for the office of Hortator.

So. You have gained the entire council's support. I must congratulate you on your skillful handling of Orvas Dren. To be confirmed as Hortator, see Crassius Curio again. He now holds the Belt of the Hortator. A symbol of your new title.

I have already confirmed you as Hortator of House Hlaalu. Now you must convince the other Hlaalu councilors. Once they all agree, speak with Crassius Curio again. He will give you your title and the Belt of the Hortator, a symbol of your office.

A Hortator is a House champion chosen in times of war. A Hortator's duty is to lead and inspire the Great Houses against its foes. Only a Great House's councilors can vote for a Hortator, and the vote must be unanimous. For example, for the Hlaalu council to choose a Hortator, all Hlaalu councilors would have to agree.

You have found me, and that means you are resourceful. Yes, I will vote for you as Hortator. But my vote alone means nothing. Yngling is a fool. You may bribe him or kill him. Crassius Curio is a man of passion, and can be manipulated. But Velanda and Nevena are Orvas Dren's creatures, and they will do nothing without his approval.

A Hortator is the leader of a Great House in times of war.

You have killed one of the councilors, %PCName. I will make sure that your request to be Hortator of House Hlaalu is postponed. Indefinitely.

You have killed one of the councilors, %PCName. I will make sure that your request to be Hortator of House Hlaalu is postponed. Indefinitely.

Since everyone agrees, you are the Hortator now, right? Hortator of House Hlaalu? I think you should talk with Crassius Curio again. Something about a belt confirming your title?

I have given you my vote, %PCName. There's no need to keep asking me about it. Go talk to the other councilors and get their votes.

I don't know. Don't we already have a Hortator? If we don't, maybe we can find one somewhere.

Oh. Yes. You want to be Hortator. Sure. I think that's a very good idea. You'll be a very special Hortator. Is that okay? Do I need to say anything official? Here. How about... 'In the name of House Hlaalu, I hereby say you are a Hortator. Of this house... House Hlaalu.' I hope that's right. Once all the councilors agree, make sure you see Crassius Curio.

Oh. Oh. Yes. Yes, Sera %PCName. The Hortator thing, right? They said, if I knew what was good for me, I would do as you asked. So. You want to be a Hortator? I make you a Hortator. I vote for you. That's all I have to do, right? Once all the councilors agree, make sure you see Crassius Curio.

That's a very strange story, with all the stars and prophecies. I'm not sure I understand what you're asking. Maybe you should speak with one of my advisors, Orvas Dren. He owns a plantation in the Ascadian Isles.

I don't understand at all. What is this about stars and a prophesy? No, don't tell me again. I don't know why you want to be a Hortator. It's all very confusing. Maybe I should talk to the other counselors. And my advisors.

I think that's some kind of war leader. Why are you interested?

I'm very concerned about what I've heard about you. I heard you were involved in the death of a Hlaalu councilor. You want me to name you Hortator of our house, but under these unfortunate circumstances, I see no chance of that.

The members of the Hlaalu Council agree. You are Hortator of House Hlaalu. You need only speak with Crassius Curio again to confirm your new title.

I have named you Hortator. Isn't that enough?

A Hortator is a champion chosen in times of war. A Hortator's duty is to lead and inspire the Great Houses against its foes. Only a Great House's councilors can vote for a Hortator, and the vote must be unanimous.

Yes, %PCName. I've just heard of Orvas Dren's unfortunate death. As for your request to be named Hortator of House Hlaalu... I believe there'll be no further delays. You have my vote, and I'm sure you'll be able to persuade the other councilors as well. Once all the councilors agree, speak with Crassius Curio again. He will give you the Belt of the Hortator.

Yes. Of course. You wished to be named Hortator of House Hlaalu? No sooner said than done. You will, of course, need to receive confirmation from the other Hlaalu councilors. But I have every confidence in your ability to persuade them. Once all the councilors agree, speak with Crassius Curio again. He will give you the Belt of the Hortator.

That is a very interesting story you tell. And the Moon-and-Star is an impressive ring. I believe your story and credentials are genuine. But I will tell you frankly that I would never confirm you as Hortator without the approval of Orvas Dren. I depend on his patronage, and would not risk his displeasure.

That is a very interesting story you tell. And your Moon-and-Star is an impressive ring. Unfortunately I'm very busy at present. I will need to consult with my colleagues, but I'll give the matter every consideration

That's a title given to a war leader among the Great Houses. Why are you interested?

You're the Hortator of House Hlaalu. What do you need from me?

I'll give you my full support, %PCName.

I thought we agreed you'd take over for me. You can name yourself Hortator now. Be strict and uncompromising. Nevena Ules and Velanda Omani will fall in line. What influence I still have, I will use.

That's the worst story I've ever heard. What makes you think I care about these prophecies? If you're the chosen one, why do you have to come to me? Why aren't you Hortator already, eh? I believe you have wasted enough of my time. Goodbye.

I have long believed it was a mistake to turn from the old gods. Perhaps Azura is with you after all. And perhaps not. I will tell you that I've spoken with Dagoth Ur. He promised me the same thing. That he will drive the foreigners from our lands. But I am not one to ignore opportunity, nor am I one to be troubled by rubbing two sides of a coin. If you are a %PCRace of your word, I am your ally. I will tell Velanda Omani and Nevena Ules to support you as Hortator of House Hlaalu.

You want peace? Like the peace of the grave we've had since the Tribunal betrayed us and signed the Armistice? Dagoth Ur has made me a better offer. The Sixth House will rise again and crush the Empire and those smug hypocrites in the Tribunal. But enough talk. I know you now as my enemy, and you must die with the rest of the foreign devils.

So you've been putting your nose in places it's not meant to be, eh? I see how it is. If the title of Hortator is all you want, you're welcome to it. It won't cost me anything at all. I'll make sure Nevena Ules and Velanda Omani understand exactly where we stand.

Well, what do you want, then?

So you want to be Hortator of House Hlaalu. And you've come to me. You show unusual wisdom for an outlander. But what's the title of Hortator worth to you? Why do you want to be Hortator?

I heard that you were named Hortator by House Hlaalu.

There are two men you should speak with. Orvas Dren at the Dren Plantation and Crassius Curio in Vivec.

Yes, you have been named Hortator of House Hlaalu. I hope you did not have to do anything dishonorable in order to get the title.

I do not know of any Hlaalu who would treat you honorably and fairly. I do know that Crassius Curio in Vivec holds some degree of power, though he may be difficult to deal with. Orvas Dren is not official a member of House Hlaalu, but he holds at least as much sway over the Hlaalu Council.
