It's mine, %PCName. Get your own!

What do you mean you don't know what gummidge is? Just how long have you been in Morrowind anyway? Everyone knows what gummidge is! But the important thing is, I can't find any. Dig some up for me, if you can.

Oh good, you found my gummidge. Now go bother someone else.

Well what are you doing here then? Come back when you find some gummidge!

That's not gummidge, %PCName! Who do you think you're fooling?

Yes, I can't find my gummidge. Dig some up for-- What? I already told you? Well, did you bring me some gummidge, then?

%Name doesn't know what that is. Sorry.

We study all sort of things here at the College, but "gummidge" is not a word I've ever heard before. Are you sure you haven't been tricked?

So it was a hackle-lo leaf that he was looking for? I'll remember that next time he comes visiting. Here, have a drink for your help. You can also stay the night at the inn if you like. Your room is upstairs, first door on your left.

I do pity him somewhat. Even if he was a Duster. I sometimes let him stay here when it's raining, but that's about all I can do for him. But if you're able to make him happy, I'll consider giving you something in return.

That sounds exactly like something I expect to hear from Balicius Coloni! I have no idea what it means, though. However, I happen to know where you could find your answer. That man hasn't always been a poor beggar in the street. He used to be one of the Dusters, back in those dark days after the old Duchess died. I think he might still have an old comrade or two left in the Dustmoth Legion. You should go and ask over there.

Well, that's for sure nothing I'm selling here. Are you going to buy something instead of asking silly questions?

Oh, you've talked to poor old Balicius Coloni? He has really fallen on hard times, that one. He might be asking for food. Kwama eggs, perhaps.

So it was a hackle-lo leaf? I was right, wasn't I?

Yes, I was fighting alongside Balicius Coloni during the Simulacrum, but that's nothing I'd like to be reminded of. He was a drunkard already back then, and a horrible soldier. He also had an irritating habit of chewing on a hackle-lo leaf all the time. I'll trade my left pauldron if that's not what gummidge is. Needless to say, it's certainly a word he has invented himself.

You want to know what old Balicius Coloni is meaning by gummidge? The only one I can think about that might have fought with him in the Legion is our jailor, Vaselius Tunifus. You can find him in the dungeon.

I think that's a word the Imperials use for some native food. Probably scuttle.

That sounds like some gibberish word for one of the Vvardenfell plants. Maybe scathecraw?

I have no idea what old Balicius Coloni means by that. But the publican at The Howling Noose sometimes offers him shelter against the weather. Perhaps he could help you?

So you've talked to old Balicius Coloni? Given his smell, I think he's after some soap. Sload soap would probably do equally well.

So you've talked to old Balicius Coloni? I would ignore that madman if I were you.

Gummidge, huh? That sounds like something you could chew on. Like a tasty hackle-lo leaf.

Sounds like scrib jelly. You know, because it's so gummy.

I once heard someone using that word for some of the food here. I think it was wickwheat, but I'm not sure.
