That's my name. Are you so stupid that it confuses you?

I apologize for my earlier attitude. Something was weighing on my mind, bringing out all the negative thoughts I could conjure.

That's a good way to sort out such filth. I'm glad that he's gone.

Remember to visit my friends in Port Telvannis: Deram Drelas, Turosi Salvel and Gali Therinith.

Glad to hear that you're a reasonable individual. I'll make sure that my friends Deram Drelas, Turosi Salvel and Gali Therinith know to look out for you.

I don't see why you would care about that traitor, %PCName. He deserves to be punished for leaving House Telvanni.

That's what I thought. It's none of your business. Leave me alone.

Ok, fine. I gave him a cursed amulet. If he keeps it near him, it will erode his personality. Say, how about we do a deal on this? If you keep quiet about this, I'll make sure that some of my friends in Port Telvannis cut you some good deals. What do you say?

What are you going to do about it?

Then there's nothing more to discuss. Leave me alone.

Alright, I know him. But I did nothing to the treacherous rat. If I did do something, he would deserve it, though. I didn't do anything, though.

What? Don't you believe me?

Yes, I've never heard of that treacherous weasel.

I don't see why you would care about that traitor.

What about him? I... I've never heard of him.

He's dead. It looks like he'll never be going back to his old ways, but at least he's quieter.

Looks like I'm stuck with this cretin, then. Maybe the best thing to do would be to try to find a potion of silence. If I drink it myself, then at least I'd have some peace and wouldn't have to listen to Ainab's constant insults and jibes.

I guess some problems can't be solved. It looks like I'll be stuck with this cantankerous master. Maybe the best thing to do would be to try to find a potion of silence. If I drink it myself, then at least I'd have some peace and wouldn't have to listen to Ainab's constant insults and jibes.

It's good to have my old master back. I'm still a slave, but at least I don't have to put up with constant complaints with everything I do. Just complaints when I don't do my job. Or when I'm tired. Or when he's had a hard day...

You did it! I don't know what you've done, %PCRace, but he's back to his old self. He hasn't been calling my parentage into question or referring to me as an illbred harlot. It makes a welcome change not to have to put up with that anymore! If you tell his friend, Dulis Llendu, about this, I'm sure she'll be very happy. She may even have a reward for you.

I hope you can solve the problem, %PCName. I'm not sure how much longer I can put up with him.

I have no idea what has caused the change. You could start by asking him yourself, and if that fails, you could try to find this Dunmer trader in a brown shirt.

Thank you! Ainab only started to act this way after a Dunmer trader in a brown shirt came to visit him. Maybe you could start by asking Ainab himself about what may be the matter. If that fails, you could try to find the trader. It was only after he came to visit that my master started to display such a marked change in his personality.

That's a pity. I guess I'll be stuck with this grumpy old mer forever. A lifetime of insults and jibes, if his recent behavior is anything to go by. Maybe the best thing to do would be to try to find a potion of silence. If I drink it myself, then at least I'd have some peace.

My master has been acting very strangely! I have no idea what has caused the change. Living with him has become unbearable; he constantly insults me and belittles my every effort. Could you try to find out what has caused this change?

My poor friend... he didn't deserve this.

Well, I really hope he goes back to normal sometime soon.

It really is an awful mystery how such a kind individual could change so rapidly into someone full of scorn and bitterness.

I am in your debt, %PCRace. You have done my friend a great service.

Ainab Guls is returned to normal? That is great news! You have my undying thanks, %PCName. Here, take this. It's not much, but it's all that I can offer you.

We've been on good terms ever since he first arrived in Akamora, but now he won't speak with anyone except to insult them, even me!

He and I have been friends ever since he arrived in Akamora from the Telvanni lands. He was always such a kind mer. Of late, his personality has changed greatly. I have no idea what has caused this change, but I'd greatly appreciate it if you could try to put it right. His slave, Fasele, may know more. You can find his manor just down the steps there.
