Grisha
You have been privileged with two legendary hunts, lowlander.{^n}{^n}Kurn will weave tales of your exploits for generations.
I'm just doing what's right.
They better!
I envy the kill, lowlander, but the honor is yours.{^n}{^n}I'll be sure to let everyone back in Kurnhold know what you've done for them.
Farewell.
A lowlander? Here? ...How?
I have my ways.
I'm already leaving.
Lose something, lowlander?
Evernight is no more.
Is that what all the commotion up north was?{^n}{^n}I could hear his screeches echoing across the springs.{^n}{^n}I admit, I am disappointed the kill wasn't mine, but you proved to be the superior hunter. Many families will sleep more soundly tonight.{^n}{^n}Well done, lowlander.
I enjoyed the thrill of the hunt.
I took no pleasure in it, but Evernight had to die.
Did you get lost, lowlander?
I know where Evernight nests.
You found it?! Then get back there quickly before you lose its trail!
But I misplaced the bait.
I'm on it.
I will deal with it soon.
I misplaced the bait.
This is for a good cause, but let's not be wasteful.{^n}{^n}This meat could have gone onto a family's table.
I'll be more careful.
No, I'm still hunting.
Did you get lost, lowlander?
Where should I be searching for Evernight?
I believe Evernight is hiding somewhere in Ulo's Springs, perhaps along the northern ridge.{^n}{^n}I intend to continue searching up that way.

Got it.
I misplaced the bait.
This is for a good cause, but let's not be wasteful.{^n}{^n}This meat could have gone onto a family's table.

I'll be more careful.
No, I'm still hunting.
You're back.{^n}{^n}Did you lose something?

Tell me about the Bloodbound.
No, I'm leaving.
Nevermind.
A lowlander? Out here? Well, now I've seen everything.{^n}{^n}Do I need to ready my weapon, or are you here in peace? Speak!
I'm not here to cause trouble.
I suppose you wouldn't have made it past Kurnhold if you were.{^n}{^n}Do not stray too far north, lowlander. The Bloodbound have a firm grip on these lands and the wastes they inhabit are not hospitable.
What are you doing out here?
I am tracking a dangerous beast, a hypporaven, that has been causing trouble for local farmers.{^n}{^n}This is no concern for a visitor to our lands.
A hunt sounds interesting. Can I help?
You wish to hunt? Who am I to deny a kindred spirit.{^n}{^n}I think we've been looking in the wrong places. Most hypporavens nest in the cliffs, far out of reach, but I suspect our quarry is different. We call it Evernight, due to his vibrant violet plummage and tendency to hunt only at night.{^n}{^n}Ulo's Springs are an ideal hiding place. Hypporavens frequent the area to hunt and the hot springs mask Evernight's scent. But I suspect the beast is hiding somewhere to the north, maybe in a valley that's not easily reached.{^n}{^n}I intend to search the springs for clues. If you wish to join the hunt, then you will need a sample of my bait. It is an irresistible haunch of boar soaked in sheep's blood. If you find Evernight's nesting ground, it will be a perfect lure.
I will hunt this pest.
Nevermind. Good luck with your hunt.
I already killed this beast.


What are hypporavens?
The sages tell us that they are the children of the raven god, Nakku. They bear his wise visage, but any divine grace has long been lost to them. The same tales would have us believe that they steal the souls of innocents while they sleep, turning them into wights, but that's only if you believe in superstitions.{^n}{^n}They are beasts like any other. Raptors armed with powerful talons and vicious beaks. Those are the parts that matter. Most hypporavens do not venture too close to the settlements, but my quarry is different. It needs to be put down.
I could help you track it down.
I see. Good luck with the hunt.
Good luck with the hunt.
Do you not see many Erulians?
Many? You are the first I've met.{^n}{^n}Some of my kin that patrol the eastern routes have stumbled upon your patrols, but our peoples mostly avoid each other.

Tell me about the Bloodbound.
I guess I'm special.
I doubt you'll meet another any time soon.
The Bloodbound?
They are traitors devoted only to their dark god. They cover themselves with debased symbols and raid our lands not for conquest but for every last drop of blood.{^n}{^n}Don't hesitate for a moment if you spot one. If your heart still beats in your chest, then they will claim you for their basins.

I'll keep an eye out.
You wouldn't stand a chance, but I'm not here to fight.
I'm going.
A lowlander? Here? ...How?
I go where I please.
The Bloodbound to the west will disagree.
We'll see.
Not headed that way anyway.
I have my ways.
I'm already leaving.
