Transcript:Dakh'thoulan Aegis
Standard dialogue
- Player: Hi there.
- Dakh'thoulan Aegis: Hello, young one. What brings you to our humble dwelling?
- Player: I was wondering what this place was?
- Dakh'thoulan Aegis: These are the Tunnels of Chaos. They radiate with the energy of chaos magic. At the far end of the tunnel, you will find a portal to the Chaos Altar itself where chaos runes are crafted!
- Why is the tunnel so short?
- Player: Why is the tunnel so short?
- Dakh'thoulan Aegis: The nature of chaos magic itself is mysterious and hard to understand.
- Player: What do you mean?
- Dakh'thoulan Aegis: The tunnel is here, and yet it is not here. We also are here, where we should be, yet we are somewhere else. And so, the tunnel goes from one place to another, yet touches neither.
- Player: I really don't understand.
- Dakh'thoulan Aegis: I told you you wouldn't. The best way to think of it is that the tunnel is like a gateway that allows you to travel from one place in the world to another in a more safe and convenient way.
- Player: Oh, I think I see. So it is like a magical alternate route?
- Dakh'thoulan Aegis: Exactly! Well done! And at the end, there is a portal which will transport you to the Chaos Altar.
- Player: Oh, ok.

- Why are there only three of you?
- Player: Why are there only three of you?
- Dakh'thoulan Aegis: Our order is a secret one and those of us that remain and survive through the ages choose to hide ourselves away.
- Player: Where are the rest of you now?
- Dakh'thoulan Aegis: We have built or found many tunnels such as these. This is not the only one. Rest assured, there are many more of us around.

- Is the Wilderness above us?
- Player: Is the Wilderness above us?
- Dakh'thoulan Aegis: Yes, I can understand you would expect it to be since the tunnel leads to the Chaos Altar. And yet, the tunnel does not enter the Wilderness, no.
- Dakh'thoulan Aegis: Rest assured, you are safe here and should not come to harm.

- (After viewing another dialogue option:) You seem quite nice for a Zamorakian.
- Player: You seem quite nice for a Zamorakian.
- Dakh'thoulan Aegis: History is written by the strong and the influential.
- Player: What does that mean?
- Dakh'thoulan Aegis: It means we cannot always believe what we are told to believe. You would do well to remember that.
- Player: I will! Thank you!
- (Shows previous options)
