With Carnius dead, I fear the entire colony will be shut down by the board of directors. There's no more work for you, %PCName. It's entirely possible there's no more work for any of us.

Falco's dead. There's going to be an official investigation, and all work has been halted. The board will likely close down the entire operation. In other words, there's no more work for you, %PCRank.

What? You're the Factor. You don't take orders from me.

Have you decided on plans for your estate, %PCRank?

Far be it from me to give you orders, but there is one matter that needs your attention. Carnius had plans for the Factor's estate, but they were never carried out. That task would now fall to you, %PCRank.

No, there's nothing you need to worry about right now. Perhaps once the construction is done, there will be something for you to take care of. Come back when it's finished.

What? You've been fired. Why would I give you any work? Now, if we were to work out some sort of arrangement in which I could re-hire you, then perhaps we could talk.

I'm sorry, %PCName. You've been fired from the company; I can't give you any more assignments. For a fee, however, I can push the paperwork through to re-hire you.

I'm sorry, %PCName. You've been fired from the company; I can't give you any more assignments. If Carnius were to re-hire you, however, you could continue with what you were doing.

You choose to ally yourself with Falco, and then come to me expecting work? I didn't realize you were THAT stupid.

You've chosen to side with Carnius, %PCName. I suggest you go to him if you want work. I have nothing for you.

You'll be wanting to take the news back to Carnius, I expect.

Until we've dealt with Baro, there's little else we can accomplish here. Is he still demanding extra payment?

It seems that nothing is easy, %PCName. Carnius' replacement supply ship has brought new problems with it, namely one Baro Egnatius. He seems to think that he deserves extra payment for delivering our supplies, and taking the ore back to the mainland, and I for one have no intention of giving in to him.

You've chosen to side with Carnius, %PCName. I suggest you go to him if you want work. I have nothing for you.

You outrank me, Factor. I cannot give you assignments.

Have you decided on plans for your estate, %PCName?

This is hardly an assignment, but I do have one last thing to ask of you. There's the matter of your estate that needs to be settled.

There's nothing that needs your attention right now, Factor. Perhaps when the construction is finished, there will be something to address, but not now.

Take that note to Carnius. We know he's involved now; he can't hide it anymore.

Something about this Skaal attack doesn't seem right.

We need to put a stop to the Skaal attack before anyone gets killed.

Bring back those swords, %PCName.

You've done more than enough for now, %PCName. You've kept me from being assassinated, and I can't thank you enough. Give us a day or two to get back on our feet, and then come see me.

Looks like I won't be assassinated today. Good job, %PCName.

Don't go anywhere! There may be more of them!

Stay nearby, just in case. I trust you more than anyone else here, and would feel better with you at my side.

%PCName, I'm going to ask you to stay close to me for a while. I've heard rumors that I'm to be assassinated, and as you can imagine, I'd like to prevent that.

It'll take a few days to get the guards trained and up to speed. Come back and see me then.

Any luck talking to the colonists? We need to hire guards as soon as possible.

Clearly we must do something to better protect the colony. As much as I would like to, I cannot rely solely on you to protect the site. So, we'll need to hire guards.

You've done all I need for now, %PCName. I should have more in a few days.

Has the grove of trees been taken care of?

Work with Unel Lloran; I've placed him in charge of getting rid of those trees.

We can't go ahead with the expansion plans until those Spriggans are gone long enough for us to get rid of the trees.

Now that the report is taken care of, we can move on to other things. Perhaps you've noticed the increase in Spriggans around here lately. I'm not sure what's going on, but they seem to be gravitating towards that cluster of trees at the East end of the colony. Unfortunately, future plans for expansion demand that we remove those trees.

What? That report takes priority over everything right now, %PCName. Make sure it gets delivered on time!

I have an urgent job for you, %PCName. I hope you don't have anything else going on, because this needs to be taken care of immediately. This report needs to be in Carnius' hands in five hours' time, and you're going to deliver it to him.

No, I don't have anything for you right now. We're concentrating on finishing up the current construction here at the site; come find me when we're done with it.

Graring is dead? Then the Stalhrim is as good as lost to us.

You've forged an important bond here, %PCName. It's clear to see why Carnius was so interested in this. Do what they've asked; take them any more Stalhrim you can find. Better that we get control of it before Carnius does.

Get the Nords some of that Stalhrim, %PCName. I'm curious to see what they can do with it.

Have you gotten any information from Graring and his companions?

Something has happened in the mine. The men have unearthed a burial cavern, but it's unlike any we've seen before. There's some sort of ice in there that they can't break through. I want you to find out what it is. There are some Nords that live just south of where the Harstrad and Islid rivers meet. Go talk to the one named Graring, and see if he can tell you anything.

There were a group of Nords living here on the island that might have known what it was about, but I understand their leader, Graring, is dead. Without him, I doubt we'll ever figure it out.

Have you calmed down Seler Favelnim, %PCName?

Yes, I have a matter that needs urgent attention. Something has gone horribly wrong with Seler Favelnim, and I need you to tend to him immediately.

You failed your assignment to catch Uryn Maren. I have nothing more for you.

It would appear that the matter of Uryn Maren has been settled for us, %PCName.

Uryn Maren is dead. An incident this serious will most likely shut down Raven Rock. There's nothing I can do.

Aldam Berendus is dead. An incident this serious will most likely shut down Raven Rock. There's nothing I can do.

Uryn Maren saw you following him. It's over.

We need to catch Uryn Maren in the act, %PCName. And soon.

Have you gotten any proof that Uryn Maren is stealing?

Find the ore he's hiding, %PCName. I want this situation resolved, so I don't have to continue to waste one of them as a guard in the mines.

We need to get proof that Uryn Maren is stealing ore from the mines.

My intention was to have you look into possible thefts in the mine. I'd been concerned that Uryn Maren was the cause, but someone has killed Aldam Berendus. That's a far more serious issue, and it will likely result in the shutdown of the colony. I'm afraid, then, that I have nothing further for you.

The logs from the mines aren't adding up, %PCName. Ore is disappearing, and if my hunch is right, Uryn Maren is the one making it disappear. Of course, if my hunch is right, we're going to need proof of his theft.

You killed Baro? Are you out of your mind? If I'd wanted him dead, I could have done that myself.

You've spared me from having to make that extra payment, and for that I thank you, %PCName.

Until we've dealt with Baro Egnatius, there's little else we can accomplish here. Is he still demanding extra payment?

It seems that nothing is easy, %PCName. Carnius' replacement supply ship has brought new problems with it, namely one Baro Egnatius. He seems to think that he deserves extra payment for delivering our supplies, and taking the ore back to the mainland, and I for one have no intention of giving in to him. I've given up trying to reason with him; why don't you try talking some sense into him.

The work is almost done. Let Carnius know, would you?

Nothing right now, %PCName. Come back in a few days, when the work has finished on the Trader's outpost.

Nothing right now, %PCName. Perhaps once we've finished work on the smithy. Come back in a few days.

There's nothing for you to do right now, %PCName. When the construction is finished, though, you should check in with Carnius.

Make sure Carnius knows about the decision, %PCName.

Nothing right now, %PCName. Come back in a few days, when the work has finished on the Trader's outpost.

Nothing right now, %PCName. Perhaps once we've finished work on the smithy. Come back in a few days.

Do you have any input on that decision, %PCName? We need to start construction soon.

Well, I don't have a real assignment for you, but perhaps you can help me with something else. I have a difficult decision to make, and your input would be valuable to me.

I don't have any assignments for you right now, %PCName. I have other things to deal with.

You've already told me about the ship. Just make sure the news gets to Carnius.

You've already told me about the ship. Just make sure the news gets to Carnius. But if you find any pick axes, let me know.

Have you seen anything? Can you tell me any more about the ship?

Have you asked the men if they've seen anything? I never see more than what's going on right here at the site, and I rarely have time to look.

Shipping Manifest? I'd give it to you if I had it, %PCName. No ship has arrived; it may have something to do with the fact that Carnius never said anything about putting in a dock, so where would a ship of that size land? I'm of little help; I certainly haven't seen anything. Though I heard something about a light to the northwest.... I didn't think anything of it at the time, but maybe that was it. Look into it for me, will you?

No ship has arrived; it may have something to do with the fact that Carnius never said anything about putting in a dock, so where would a ship of that size land? I'm of little help; I've spent all my time making sure the construction proceeds smoothly, so I haven't seen anything. Check with the men; perhaps one of them can tell you more.

I have nothing for you, %PCName. Work continues on the colony, but we have no need for your help at the moment.

Let Carnius know that Hroldar the Strange has been dealt with. There's nothing more for you to do here now.

Everything is on hold while Hroldar the Strange is blocking the door. We need to get rid of him.

I'm afraid any jobs would have to come from Carnius, %PCName. You'd better see him.

Confound it all. I had hoped Carnius wouldn't catch wind of our situation. I had things under control until recently... It's this crazy Nord. Hroldar the Strange, we've taken to calling him. He's been hanging around for a while, ranting about how we're ruining the land, and if we don't stop, we'll incur the wrath of Nature itself. He was simply a nuisance, but now it's apparent we have to get rid of him.

So, Carnius has given you a second chance, eh? Very well. There's no work for you here, though.

Your only task was to bring the miners here, and you couldn't even accomplish that? Clearly, the East Empire Company has no use for you.

Once you have four more pieces of ore, take all five to Carnius.

Carnius sent you to me for more instructions, yes? Well, you can finish the task I was working on before you got here. Now that some of the workers have arrived, I need to stay here and supervise. Here, take this ebony ore, and find four more pieces like it. Carnius needs some proof for our investors that this venture is worth it, and the ore should do nicely.

We've already discussed the drastic measures that need to be taken. See to it that they're carried out.

It appears that more drastic measures will be necessary, %PCRank.

With Falco out of the way, the whole operation should shut down in a matter of days. Just be patient for now, %PCRank. Come see me in a few days, and we'll start cleaning up.

I want Falco assassinated, %PCRank. Stick to the plan, and no one will know you had anything to do with it.

Oh, this will be a most important job for you. It's a shame, really. After all I've clearly done to secure the safety of the colonists, and yet poor Falco will still be assassinated right under their noses. Well, it simply proves this venture is just too dangerous.

Nothing right now, %PCRank. I have some important plans that I'm preparing, but they're not ready yet. You're an important part of them, so I'll let you know when I need you.

Have you made any progress? We need to hire guards so maintain the illusion that we actually care about what's happening here.

With this awful turn of events, we'll just have to do something about protecting the colony better, won't we %PCRank? I certainly wouldn't want anyone to have the impression that I haven't done all I can to secure the safety of our beloved colonists. So you're going to see to it that we hire guards for our little venture, just to put the investors' minds at ease.

It's all settled? Good. I can be sure that work in the mine will continue, and any Stalhrim left will be discovered. Well done, %PCRank.

Sort out this problem with Unel Lloran. I don't have time to deal with it.

I need to at least give the impression that I care about what happens to the workers, so go remove this infestation of Spriggans.

There's some sort of problem with Spriggans at the colony site, and I expect you to take care of it, %PCRank.

So, Hroldar has been dealt with as well? Good. He'd long outlived his usefulness to me, and was becoming a liability. Let's hope you continue to perform well, %PCRank. I'd hate to start thinking of you as a liability as well.

The messenger is dead? And.... you already killed Hroldar, despite that not being part of your assignment. Well, it's not the way I would've liked it to happen, but I am glad those two are out of the way. To make a point, though, you'll get no reward from me, %PCRank - keep that in mind the next time you decide to make up the rules as you go.

The messenger is dead? And.... have you taken care of anything else? If not, I suggest you speak to Hroldar.

Find the messenger carrying that report, and see to it that he's taken care of.

I trust you remember Hroldar the Strange? Well, he's one of my men. Picked him up outside Cyrodiil some years back, and have used him for a few jobs since then. I correctly figured he'd serve well in this situation, and so far he has. Oh, you don't need to know everything he's done for me; suffice it to say he's made some very good progress. But now, I have need of his skills, and yours as well. You're going to intercept a report for me.

I don't have any work for you right now, %PCRank. Perhaps once those simpletons at the site finish up the construction, we can start on the next phase of my plans. Check back in a few days.

All your efforts should be focused on the Stalhrim right now, %PCRank. You've no idea how important it is.

The miners have stumbled onto something very important, %PCRank. A wall in the mine crumbled and an old burial cavern was uncovered. They've found a large block of ice inside, and nothing anyone does can break it. I've feigned ignorance on the subject, but I need you to do something about it. The ice is called Stalhrim, and you're going to get me some of it.

Nothing right now, %PCRank. But I suspect I may have a task for you in the near future. A very important task, in fact.

Have you dealt with Seler Favelnim, %PCRank?

Yes, yes - I do have some work for you. One of the miners is causing some sort of disturbance. He's in the bar, and has apparently gone crazy, or some such nonsense. Go find this Seler Favelnim and deal with him, will you?

Good work on that last job, %PCRank. I'll let you know when I have something more for you.

Things are not going at all as I'd planned. Someone has killed Aldam Berendus, and an investigation will likely be launched. The entire colony could be shut down over this. So I'm afraid there's no work for you.

Things are not going at all as I'd planned. Someone has killed Uryn Maren, and an investigation will likely be launched. The entire colony could be shut down over this. So I'm afraid there's no work for you.

You should be off helping Uryn Maren, %PCRank.

Do you have the ore? I need to get Uryn Maren back to work without worrying about this.

I'm waiting on that ore, %PCRank. The evidence needs to be removed before Falco decides to search Uryn Maren.

It's time you start earning your keep, %PCRank. I've had Uryn Maren procuring a little extra ore that I can sell on the side. I have reason to believe that Falco suspects what's going on, and I need you to help take care of the matter.

You killed him?? How am I supposed to retain the services of a ship captain if all he knows is that every man who took the job before him is dead? Ugh. I hope you're not expecting any sort of reward for this. Just move on to your next assignment.

Hrmph. Took long enough. Well, this is what happens when there's more work than I can do myself. Things don't get done right, or on time, or with any degree of finesse.... sometimes I wonder why I try, %PCRank. Well, at least the supplies will get through now. Good work, I suppose. Here, take this, and then let's discuss your next assignment.

Has Falco gotten things under control? I sometimes wonder why I hired him. Now that I think of it, why did I hire you, if you're here talking to me instead of fixing things? Get out of here!

How am I supposed to get anything done when things are always going wrong? No one understands the pressure I'm under, %PCRank. No one. And these problems only make things worse. Get out there and find out what's keeping Falco from getting his work done THIS time. It's some sort of problem with the supply ship. I can only imagine what he's done....

The trader's outpost is almost done? Bah, who cares? These incompetents can't even finish the simplest of assignments.

The smithy is almost done? Bah, who cares? These incompetents can't even finish the simplest of assignments.

What? No, %PCRank. Nothing for you right now. Come back in a few days.

I'm waiting on that decision from you, %PCRank.

Oh, you again. Well, you can deal with this; I can't be bothered. The funds are available to add a service provider to the colony. It needs to be decided whether a smith or a trader should be brought in; the decision is going to be yours.

I still don't have anything for you to do, %PCRank. Go bother Falco if you must.

No, %PCRank. Nothing for you to do. Come back another time.

WHAT? It's gone? This is unacceptable! After the money I spent on this venture... Fine, fine. Another ship will have to be sent for. Well, don't just stand there; the longer I look at you, the longer I have to think about it. Just take this and go away. Come back in a few days.

I need to know the status of those supplies, %PCRank. Get moving.

Actually, you can make yourself useful, %PCRank. It's a menial task, but it needs to be done. I've spent a great deal of money ensuring that supplies are delivered from the mainland, and I'd like you to go make sure everything is in order. The supply ship arrived this morning according to my schedule. Get me a copy of the shipping manifest from Falco, will you? On your way, then.

There's no work for you right now, %PCRank. Check again in a few days.

He's dead? Wonderful! That'll send a message: anyone who gets in the way of the Raven Rock project will suffer dearly. Excellent work, %PCRank. Oh, don't worry about what Falco thinks. He still takes orders from me, you know.

So it's been dealt with? Shame that you didn't just kill him outright, but fair enough. As long as the work can continue. Good job, %PCRank.

Have you finished taking care of Falco's little problem? If not, I suggest you stop bothering me, and go deal with it.

I personally don't have anything for you, but I understand Falco is having some sort of problem out at the site. Doesn't surprise me in the least. Go out there and see what's going on, will you?

I don't have any work for you right now. Check back when construction has progressed some.

I don't have any work for you right now. Check back when construction has progressed some.

They didn't make it? Honestly, %PCName. This doesn't speak well of your abilities. Well, we'll just have to teach you a little lesson, won't we? You're fired.

Ah, so you have the ore I asked Falco for? He couldn't even accomplish that by himself, could he? No matter. The investors are waiting for this, so hand it over. Here's payment for the job. I don't have any other work for you right now; come back and see me in about three days. By then construction should be well under way, and there will likely be more for you to do. Oh, and take this stock certificate.

You've talked to Falco, then? Well, where's the ore? Until you have five pieces of it in your hands, ready to give to me, don't waste my time.

So, the workers arrived safely? That's something, at least. But you haven't talked to Falco? Well, then march right back out there and do it, %PCName. If you're going to learn anything from this, it's that there's a chain of command in this operation, and I expect it to be adhered to. I gave you instructions, and you will carry them out to the letter.

You're supposed to be escorting the workers. What are you doing back here? Hurry up and get to it!

Go talk to Gidar Verothan. He's waiting outside the fort. Hurry up, now.

You think you're ready for work, eh? Very well. The first of our workers have arrived, and need to get to the mining site. None of them are particularly skilled with a blade, so I'd like you to escort them. They know the way; you simply have to make sure they arrive safely. Once you're there, check in with Falco Galenus. He'll give you further instructions. For now, go speak to Gidar Verothan. He's down by the dock.
