This transcript involves dialogue with Chancellor Hassan, Osman, Leela, Ned, Aggie, Lady Keli, Joe (jail), Prince Ali, and the player.

Starting out

Talking to Chancellor Hassan

• Hassan: Greetings I am Hassan, Chancellor to the Emir of Al- Kharid.
• Can I help you? You must need some help here in the desert.
  • Hassan: I need the services of someone, yes. If you are interested, see the spymaster, Osman. I manage the finances here. Come to me when you need payment.
  • (End of dialogue)
• (Non-quest dialogue) It's just too hot here. How can you stand it?
• (Non-quest dialogue) Do you mind if I just kill your warriors?

Talking to him again before meeting Osman

• Hassan: Have you found the spymaster, Osman, yet? You cannot proceed in your task without reporting to him.
• (End of dialogue)

Talking to him after meeting Osman

• Hassan: I understand the Spymaster has hired you. I will pay the reward only when the Prince is rescued.
• (End of dialogue)

Talking to Osman

• Player: The chancellor trusts me. I have come for instructions.
• Osman: Our prince is captive by the Lady Keli. We just need to make the rescue. There are two things we need you to do.
• What is the first thing I must do?
  • Player: What is the first thing I must do?
  • Osman: The prince is guarded by some stupid guards and a clever woman. The woman is our only way to get the prince out. Only she can walk freely about the area.
  • Osman: I think you will need to tie her up. One coil of rope should do for that. Then, disguise the prince as her to get him out without suspicion.
  • Player: How good must the disguise be?
  • Osman: Only enough to fool the guards at a distance. Get a skirt like hers. Same colour, same style. We will only have a short time.
  • Osman: Get a blonde wig, too. That is up to you to make or find. Something to colour the skin of the prince.
  • Osman: My daughter and top spy, Leela, can help you. She has sent word that she has discovered where they are keeping the prince.
  • Osman: It's near Draynor Village. She is lurking somewhere near there now.
  • Explain the first thing again.
    • (Same as above)
  • What is the second thing you need?
    • (Same as below)
  • Okay, I better go find some things.
    • (Same as below)
• What is the second thing you need?
  • Player: What is the second thing you need?
  • Osman: We need the key, or we need a copy made. If you can get some soft clay then you can copy the key...
  • Osman: ...If you can convince Lady Keli to show it to you for a moment. She is very boastful. It should not be too hard.
  • Osman: Bring the imprint to me, with a bar of bronze.
  • What is the first thing I must do?
    • (Same as above)
  • What exactly is the second thing you need?
    • (Same as above)
  • Okay, I better go find some things.
    • (Same as below)
• Okay, I better go find some things.
  • Player: Okay, I had better go find some things.
  • Osman: May good luck travel with you. Don't forget to find Leela. It can't be done without her help.
  • (End of dialogue)

Talking to Osman again

• Player: Can you tell me what I still need to get?
• If the player has not obtained the key print:
  • Osman: A print of the key in soft clay and a bronze bar. Then, collect the key from Leela.
• If the player has given Osman the key print and not picked up the bronze key:
  • Osman: You can collect the key from Leela.
• If the player has obtained the bronze key from Leela:
  • Osman: The key you already have. Good.
• If the player has not obtained the blonde wig:
  • Osman: You need to make a blonde wig somehow. Leela may help.
• If the player has obtained the blonde wig:
  • Osman: The wig you have got; well done.
• If the player does not have a pink skirt in your inventory:
  • Osman: You will need a skirt that looks the same as Keli's.
• If the player have a pink skirt in their inventory:
  • Osman: You have the skirt. Good.
• If the player does not have the skin paste in your inventory:
  • Osman: Something to make the prince's skin appear lighter.
• If the player has a skin paste in your inventory:
  • Osman: You have the skin paint; well done. I thought you would struggle to make that.
• If the player has a rope in their inventory:
  • Osman: Yes, you have the rope.
• If the player does not have a rope in their inventory:
  • Osman: A rope with which to tie Keli up.
• Osman: Once you have everything, go to Leela. She must be ready to get the prince away.
• (End of dialogue)

Talking to Leela

• Player: I am here to help you free the prince.
• Leela: Your employment is known to me. Now, do you know all that we need to make the break?
• I must make a disguise. What do you suggest?
  • Player: I must make a disguise. What do you suggest?
  • Leela: Only the lady Keli, can wander about outside the jail. The guards will shoot to kill if they see the prince out so we need a disguise good enough to fool them at a distance.
  • If the player does not have a blonde wig:
    • Leela: You need a wig, maybe made from wool. If you find someone who can work with wool ask them about it. There's a witch nearby may be able to help you dye it.
  • If the player has a blonde wig:
    • Leela: The wig you have got, well done.
  • If the player does not have a pink skirt:
    • Leela: You will need to get a pink skirt, same as Keli's.
  • If the player has a pink skirt:
    • Leela: You have got the skirt, good.
  • If the player does not have the skin paste:
    • Leela: We still need something to colour the Prince's skin lighter. There's a witch close to here. She knows about many things. She may know some way to make the skin lighter.
  • If the player has the skin paste:
    • Leela: You have the skin paint, well done. I thought you would struggle to make that.
  • If the player does not have a rope:
    • Leela: You will still need some rope to tie up Keli, of course. I heard that there's a good rope maker around here.
  • If the player has a rope:
    • Leela: You have rope I see, to tie up Keli. That will be the most dangerous part of the plan.
  • (Shows previous options)
• I need to get the key made.
  • Player: I need to get the key made.
  • Leela: Yes, that is most important. There is no way you can get the real key. It is on a chain around Keli's neck. Almost impossible to steal.
  • Leela: Get some soft clay and get her to show you the key somehow. Then take the print, with bronze, to my father.
  • (Shows initial options)
• What can I do with the guards?
  • Player: What can I do with the guards?
  • Leela: Most of the guards will be easy. The disguise will get past them. The only guard who will be a problem will be the one at the door.
  • Leela: We can discuss this more when you have the rest of the escape kit.
  • (Shows initial options)
• I will go and get the rest of the escape equipment.
  • Player: I will go and get the rest of the escape equipment.
  • Leela: Good, I shall await your return with everything.
  • (End of dialogue)

  • How about some sort of wig?
    • Player: How about some sort of wig?

    • Player: What do you need to make it?

      • Aggie: That should be simple. Hand the things to Aggie then.
      • 

        

        You hand the ash, flour, water and redberries to Aggie. Aggie tips the ingredients into a cauldron and mutters some words.

      • 

        Aggie hands you the Skin Paste.

      • Aggie: Okay dearie, that's always your choice.
      • (End of dialogue)

• Lady Keli: I am Keli, you have heard of me then?

  • Player: I think Katrine is still tougher.

    • Ah, I see. You must have been very skillful.
      • Player: You must have been very skillful.
      • Lady Keli: Yes, I did most of the work. We had to grab the Pr...
      • Lady Keli: Er, we had to grab him without his ten bodyguards noticing. It was a stroke of genius.
      • Select an Option
      • Are you sure they will pay?

      • Lady Keli: They will pay, or we will cut his hair off and send it to them.
      • Player: How about trying something tougher? Maybe cut his finger off?

      • Select an Option
      • You must have been very skillful.

      • Lady Keli: There is not another key like this in the world.
      • Could I see the key please?
        • Player: Could I see the key please? Just for a moment. It would be something I can tell my grandchildren. When you are even more famous than you are now.
        • Lady Keli: As you put it that way I am sure you can see it. You cannot steal the key, it is on a Runite chain.
        • Keli shows you a small key on a strong looking chain.
        • Could I touch the key for a moment please?
          • Lady Keli: Only for a moment then.
          • You put a piece of your soft clay in your hand. As you touch the key, you take an imprint of it.
          • Player: Thank you so much, you are too kind, o great Keli.
          • Lady Keli: You are welcome, run along now, I am very busy.
        • I should not disturb someone as tough as you.
          • (Same as below)
      • That is a good way to keep secrets.
        • Lady Keli: It is the best way I know. Dead men tell no tales.
        • Player: I am glad I know none of your secrets, Keli.
        • (End of dialogue)

    • I do not show respect to killers and hoodlums.
      • Player: I do not show respect to killers and hoodlums.

      • (End of dialogue)
    • You must have trained a lot for this work.
      • (Same as above)

  • Player: How are you? Still ok? Not too drunk?

      You hand two more beers to the guard. He takes a sip of one, and then he drinks them both.

  • Hey, chill out, I won't cause you trouble.
    • Player: Hey, chill out, I won't cause you trouble. I was just wondering what you do to relax.

    • So what do you buy with these great wages?
      • Player: So what do you buy with these great wages?

    • Player: Hey, chill out, I won't cause you trouble. I was just wondering what you do to relax.

• I had better leave, I don't want trouble.
  • Player: I had better leave, I don't want trouble.
  • Joe: Thanks, I appreciate that. Talking on duty can be punishable by having your mouth stitched up. These are tough people, no mistake.
  • (End of dialogue)

Talking to Joe once he is drunk

• Joe: Halt! Who goes there?
• Player: Hello friend, I am just rescuing the prince, is that ok?
• Joe: Thatsh a funny joke. You are lucky I am shober. Go in peace, friend.
• (End of dialogue)

Talking to Leela again after speaking to Joe

• Leela: Ok now, you have all the basic equipment. What are your plans to stop the guard interfering?
• I haven't spoken to him yet.
  • Player: I haven't spoken to him yet.
  • Leela: Well, speaking to him may find a weakness he has. See if there's something that could stop him bothering us.
  • Leela: Good luck with the guard. When the guard is out you can tie up Keli.
  • (End of dialogue)
• I was going to attack him.
  • Player: I was going to attack him.
  • Leela: I don't think you should. If you do the rest of the gang and Keli would attack you. The door guard should be removed first, to make it easy.
  • Leela: Good luck with the guard. When the guard is out you can tie up Keli.
  • (End of dialogue)
• I hoped to get him drunk.
  • Player: I hoped to get him drunk.
  • Leela: Well, that's possible. These guards do like a drink. I would think it will take at least 3 beers to do it well. You would probably have to do it all at the same time too. The effects of the local beer wear off quickly.
  • Leela: Good luck with the guard. When the guard is out you can tie up Keli.
  • (End of dialogue)
• Maybe I could bribe him to leave.
  • Player: Maybe I could bribe him to leave.
  • Leela: You could try. I don't think the emir will pay anything towards it. And we did bribe one of their guards once.
  • Leela: Keli killed him in front of the other guards, as a deterrent. It would probably take a lot of gold.
  • Leela: Good luck with the guard. When the guard is out you can tie up Keli.
  • (End of dialogue)
• I'm not sure yet.
  • Player: I'm not sure yet.
  • Leela: You should try talking to him. He might give away some sort of weakness.
  • (End of dialogue)

Talking to Leela once Joe is drunk

• Leela: You're back. How are things going with that guard?
• Player: He's been dealt with.
• Leela: Great! I think that means we're ready. Go in and use some rope to tie Keli up. Once she's dealt with, use the key to free the Prince. Don't forget to give him his disguise so the guards outside don't spot him.
• (End of dialogue)

Dealing with Lady Keli

• If the player is not ready:
  • You cannot tie Keli up until you have all equipment and disabled the guard!
  • You'd better get rid of Lady Keli before trying to go through there.
  • (End of dialogue)
• If the player used rope on Lady Keli:
  • You overpower Keli again, tie her up and put her in a cupboard.
    You must open the door to rescue the prince before she escapes.
