Star Trail? Did you actually say Star Trail just then? You must be tired of living to utter that name in the presence of Iwain Basiliskslayer! Never mention that word again, did you hear me? We only went there because that stupid woman told us there’d be treasures to be found!Madness! That’s what it was! Thousands of those creatures all around us, and Alara had to go in there. Well, she paid the price for her stupidity. Now she’s propped up there, and if I’ve understood it right, then that’s where she’s gonna stay.I mean, I’d only accompanied her in the first place because I’m not the kind of guy who lets a woman go to her doom all alone. But, when I saw that, I made tracks and fast.What’s that you say? For the Gods? Don’t talk to me about that! One more word about Them, and I’ll wring your scrawny necks. It’s easy for you to talk. Were you at Grangor before? No, you weren’t. If you had been, you wouldn’t risk your skins for that foul scum now. Yes, I said scum. The foulest Lizard magic if you ask me. Have you any idea what they did? They turned a whole town full of Elves into Orcs! Well, almost into Orcs anyway. They still have those pointy ears, but apart from that, they’re Orcs. Now that can only be Lizard magic.So go ask the Lizards! They say there are some of them around here, just a bit further north in the middle of the swamp. But if you want to ask them any questions, you might just as well fall on a sword right now. You can have mine for it. Ah, what do I care if you walk to your doom. Have fun!Star Trail! You know, I’ve sent people to meet Boron for less! And if they have it half as bad there as I suspect…
