Red Mage | So. |
Red Mage | You're. Y'know. You're wearing, um, rat. |
Berserker | Oh, indeed. |
Red Mage | (thinking) Okay, don't panic. Just keep talking and he might not rip your face off with his teeth and pee on what's left... |
Red Mage | Do that often? |
Berserker | Only when hunting for Dire Rats. |
Cleric | I prayed to the Trickster God to fix your friend up. The Blue Book of Divinity doesn't list a single prayer for tricksters, so I had to wing it. |

Black Mage | Yeah, it's because they screw you faster than a two dollar whore. And usually with a shiv they convinced you to make. |
Cleric | Oh, I'm sure you're thinking of some other god. The one I met gave me this healing shiv. |
Black Mage | Okay. Cleric isn't good with gods. |
Cleric | (muttering) Which end does the healing... |
Ranger | Quite the contrary, really. We'd have never made it to this island if not for Cleric's prayers to the Sea Gods. |
Cleric | Of course, the gods work in mysterious ways. Like a healing shiv. |
Ranger | For instance, we got here via shipwreck. |
Cleric | The part that confuses me, though, is that we weren't actually in a ship. |
Cleric | Or anywhere near an ocean. |
Cleric | So very mysterious. |
