Remember, that gold ensures your silence. If word gets out, I'll know exactly who to blame.

The job's done? Excellent. With Ravos out of the way, I can finally do right by Ulyne and turn our family business around. Here's your payment as promised.

Is it done? If it isn't, you won't get a single coin out of me.

Thank you. You rarely meet such understanding people nowadays. Talk to me again when the job is done.

What? How can you just reject my offer? I'm putting my reputation and even my life on the line for my family. You, on the other hand, sympathize with some drug-addled, empty-headed moron. Take my secret to the grave, then!

And I will continue to do what I must to make this family prosperous again. So, I have a proposal for you. If -- instead of telling my wife -- you turn back and finish off Ravos, I'll reward you nicely. I've hidden some money away from Ravos's blundering fingers. It was going to rebuild our business, but I suppose paying you off is as good an investment. How does 250 gold sound? Unlike my-brother-in-law, I know what something's worth.

B'vek, he's alive? I thought the poison would've finished him off by now. It figures that the worthless s'wit was due for a bit of luck. Well, I suppose I can drop the deception. Yes, I poisoned Ravos. But you have to understand -- he needed to go. Ravos was running our trade into the ground. It was either him dying of poison or all of us dying as beggars in the street, so I did what I had to.

He lived, but you killed him for me? Hah, that is quite the spot of luck. Here, take this. I was going to invest it in my business, but you clearly deserve it more.

Good. You should keep it that way.

What are you trying to say, %PCClass?

What are you trying to say, %PCClass?

Thank you for saving my life, %PCName.

A day of rest did wonders for me. You'd barely know I'd been poisoned and left for dead. Here, I found some valuables Drerayn had stashed away. I know it's not much, but Ulyne refused to let me hand over any of our shared assets. Speak to her if you want, but I doubt she'll move on this.

It'll be hard to explain everything to my sister, but I'm sure I'll manage. Then I can finally wash off all this dust and collapse into a nice, warm bed.

Hopefully, Ulyne has dealt with that bastard by now.

I told you not to go near Drerayn! With me alive, he had nothing to lose. But I guess what's done is done. I should head home before everyone starts gawking at us. Ulyne isn't going to take this well, and I would really just like to rest. Meet me there in a day. Hopefully, I'll be feeling better by then. I'll even see if I can scramble a payment together for you.

Make sure we avoid Drerayn. Who knows what he'll do if he knows I'm alive.

dishonorable s'wit -- damn -- cowardly -- face me -- gods.

Damn him! Of course, the dishonorable s'wit is too cowardly to face me himself. Fine, I guess this is just one more test from the gods.

Ulyne believed you? That's as much as I could've hoped for! The Autrinixes are kind people; they'll take good care of me while my sister sorts out Drerayn. Let's travel together. I can't wait to have a roof over my head again.

That's a shame. I trust you are just being careful.

You spoke with her? What did she say?

You spoke with her? What did she say?

Make sure to show her the ring. And avoid my brother-in-law -- he mustn't know I'm alive.

I'm grateful to be alive, but I can't just walk back home with my brother-in-law out for blood. Any confrontation would be dangerous, not to mention bad for business. Here, take my ring. Speak to my sister, Ulyne Sedri, in Shipal-Sharai. Tell her I'm alive, and Drerayn tried to kill me. Show her the ring, and I'm sure she'll believe you.

I'm deeply sorry for my rudeness. Let's start over. My name is Ravos Goran, and I've been poisoned by my own brother-in-law. His name is Drerayn Sedri, and he's left me stranded out here in terrible pain for who knows how long. You've already done so much by curing me, but I still have one more kindness to ask of you.

[He glares at you, then loses focus and goes back to his rambling.]

[He gulps the potion down greedily.] I'm -- I'm -- saved? Thank you, stranger. However, I can't feel safe after being betrayed by Drerayn.

[His eyes brighten for a moment. Then, he appears to lose focus, continuing to mumble and rant and occasionally glancing warily at you.]

Huh -- are you -- check on me -- the poison finished -- it hasn't -- do it yourself.
