Thane Sulf Hinterland
A clean kill. One our young could achieve, but nevertheless impressive for a lowlander!
Could I partake of some of the meat?
But of course. Your kill, your choice of cut.
Thank you.
Could I partake of some of the meat?
I appreciate a hardy appetite. Take your fill.
Thank you.
Mhmm.
Farewell.
These lands are not for the likes of you.{^n}{^n}Best return east, Erulian.
Alright.
Were you successful in tracking down Ruugru?
Yes, and I bring meat.
I did not think you would actually take me up on the challenge. Good on you, lowlander!{^n}{^n}We will get this meat over the fire. A hearty meal to share on a frigid day.{^n}{^n}You have shown your intentions to be true, so I will be true in mine. These ointments will shield you from the wind's bite. May come in handy on the journey ahead.{^n}{^n}I wish you fortune, lowlander. May your brethren still draw breath when you find them. But if you wish to take a moment by our fire and rest, you are more than welcome.
Have you seen the legion scouts?
I admit, I was not forthright with you at first. We did spot your party traveling north.{^n}{^n}They were ill-prepared for the weather and the beasts that await up there. Your commander seems to know little of these lands, or they are desperate.{^n}{^n}I do not lie, if they have not returned this way, then they are likely dead. But I do hope you at least find their remains.{^n}{^n}Take care, lowlander.
I appreciate the info. Farewell.
Thank you.
Where is this Ruugru?
Not a tracker, I see. That is fine.{^n}{^n}Ruugru's herd is due north, not far from camp. Look for the large white-maned bull.{^n}{^n}Well past his prime, so I hope he won't cause you too much trouble, lowlander!
I will seek him out.
I'll be back soon.
I will not begrudge a traveler a place by the fire in these winds, as Amatok teaches us.{^n}{^n}But I have to ask: why are you here, lowlander?
I am after a missing scouting party.
I see.{^n}{^n}They are likely as good as dead. Frostveil is a treacherous land in the best of times, but now...{^n}{^n}Following in their footsteps is unwise if you are unprepared. Though...maybe we can help each other out.
What did you have in mind?
An elder bristlehorn we call Ruugru roams just north of here. The hulking animal is well past his prime, but he refuses to relinquish his status as the alpha of the herd, preventing younger males from asserting dominance.{^n}{^n}Help restore balance by hunting him down and bring his meat back here. We will ensure no part of him goes to waste.{^n}{^n}And, once we've all feasted, maybe we can offer you something to aid you on your journey.
I will hunt this bristlehorn down.
Not interested.
I've already hunted this beast.

I should go.
Our scouts were attacked. I wish to learn more.
I see.{^n}{^n}Frostveil is a treacherous land in the best of times but, with the tendrils spreading, even wild beasts pose ever greater danger.{^n}{^n}You should not venture deeper unprepared. Maybe we can help each other out.

You're a Kurn! Are you not my enemy?
Perhaps? Do you bring the specter of violence to our hearth?{^n}{^n}I bear no ancient grudges. In a blizzard, all are at Amatok's mercy.{^n}{^n}If we are not coming to blows, then I will ask again: what brings you to the frozen north, lowlander?


I need to keep moving.
I was just leaving.
