General Azerug the Honorable says 'Greetings, _______. Are you good at [exploring], [smashing], and [spying]?'
You say, 'spying'
General Azerug the Honorable says 'I had come to an agreement with the Acolytes several days ago, after I was concerned that they were hurting Dranik's defenses by spouting their defeatist philosophy to any who would listen. They would hand out depressing writings, harangue people in the city tunnels until they came away even more depressed and crestfallen, and refuse to do any work for the city or enlist themselves in its defense. They are truly [useless].'
You say, 'useless'
General Azerug the Honorable says 'The only reason I tolerate them in the city is because they are Dragorns, and every Dragorn has a right to come to their senses. In the case of the Acolytes, I would hope that comes sooner rather than later, as I could use every last Dragorn in the city's defense. I fear, however, they might be breaking their [agreement] with me.'
You say, 'agreement'
General Azerug the Honorable says 'Balion, the leader of the Acolytes, assured me he would agree to my demand and refuse to allow anyone in his group to do any preaching as long as Dranik was under attack, and as long as they choose to remain under my protection. But lately, I've heard reports that the Acolytes have started their doomsaying again. It is most infuriating to be lied to. Will you [approach] three of the Acolytes and see if you can get them to preach to you, and give you their literature?'
You say, 'approach'

Acolyte Maarnek says 'There is inevitability in the fall of Kuua. All worlds will fall to the Muramites and the waves of Discord; there is nothing to be gained by prolonging our hopeless struggle. The end of consciousness must come, so let it come by our own willful action. The Muramites have taken our world, our birthright, even our gods. Within this, our Hymnal of Despair, you will learn the comforting truth of hopelessness.'
