No! Do not mention her name! I had just begun to get to know her, and now she is gone...

Didn't I tell you? She does have feelings after all. And she feels for me too.

I am sad that Nataya's relationship with Simeth was cut short so soon. They would have been good for each other.

I am much sorrowed at her loss. She had always been one of my greatest servants, and loyalest friends. Simeth must be distraught.

My beloved Nataya and trusted Simeth are together, all thanks to you. I can be nothing but glad for this union.

Do you have any news for me, %PCName? You... you made it? This is incredible! And Nataya wants to thank me, personally? You just made me a happy man, my friend; I will not forget it. Here, take this. It's not much, but in the hands of an adventurer such as yourself, it can prove to be a real treasure. Thank you again; come and visit me whenever you wish. I will be happy to talk to you.

You can forget about it.

You have the sword, what are you waiting for?

No. I will never surrender the Blightcutter to an Imperial or Hlaalu. Begone!

Well, I confess I wasn't expecting this! Simeth and Nataya... I approve. Here, have the sword and tell Simeth to take good care of her, or I'll make him regret for toying with her heart.

What of her, %PCRace?

I cannot wait for Nataya to show me her true colors.

I'd like you to obtain that sword and give it to Nataya on my behalf. It's really important to me, and I don't think that Master Mithras would refuse. After all, Nataya is like a daughter to him. I'd be so grateful if you could help me, %PCName.

Well, this is what I've been thinking; Nataya's father was once a friend of Master Mithras. After his death, Mithras was given his sword -- the Blightcutter, as he called it -- and has kept it in the tower of Tel Aranyon ever since. I'm sure Nataya would love to hold that sword in her hands so that it would remind her of her father, and I'm sure she would at least pay some attention to the man that made it happen.

You, don't find it funny? That's a relief. You know, I've been thinking of ways to approach Nataya, but I cannot leave my position. I'd really want you to help me if you can.

Agh, why am I even talking to you?

You know, she appears to be tough and all, but she's just hiding her true self. I know that deep down she's really sensitive and romantic, which is the reason I'm standing up here all day long. I love to watch her, although she never spent a moment to stare at me. Alright, go ahead, laugh! A guard in love! Funny, isn't it?

Yes, Nataya Radasar. She's very loyal to Master Mithras and very hostile to newcomers as well. But, between you and me, I believe she's rather sensitive and romantic. But... I've said too much. I barely know you.
