- Attala: Hello there, [player name]. What can I do for you?
- Select an Option
- How are things?
- Player: How are things?
- Attala: Now that the situation in the ruins is under control, things are nice and quiet, which is just what we need. That whole buisness down there got a lot of dwarves riled up.
- Attala: Naturally, most blame you humans.
- Player: Of course. Have you tried explaining to them that we actually helped?
- Attala: Ha! Good one. You think I'm going to make a laughing stock of myself by daring to claim a human did something positive? Keep dreaming!

- So how long has Cam Torum been around?
- Player: So how long has Cam Torum been around?
- Attala: What am I, a historian?
- Player: No, but you're the only dwarf here that might be willing to share that sort of information with me.
- Attala: Hmph. Very well. The Varlamorians won't mention this, but we were the first to settle here. Our ancestors saw the writing on the wall when Xeric came to power in Kourend. They chose not to stick around.
- Player: Must have been a big thing for them, leaving their home.
- Attala: Doubtful. My people are all too familiar with that sort of thing. The Lovakengj dwarves have mostly forgotten their history, but we Dwarves of Cam Torum remember it all too well.
- Player: Remember what?
- Attala: Before Lovakengj, there was Imcandoria. Our ancestors there were forced to abandon their home, just as we were forced to leave Kourend.
- Attala: If you humans had had your way, we might have had to abandon Cam Torum by now as well.
- Player: You don't know that.
- Attala: But I do know that. As I said, we remember our history, and we know that those who don't are doomed to repeat it.
- Attala: The Varlamorians nearly destroyed themselves in their War of Betrayal, but it was not them who were betrayed, it was us.
- Attala: I was a young dwarf when their war risked destroying our home. I saw the results of their pride. Meanwhile, they've all but forgotten it.
- Player: Sorry. I didn't mean to dig up old wounds.
- Attala: Hmph. It's fine. Your intentions are good, [player name], which is more than can be said for most of your kind. Who knows, maybe one or two dwarves here might even grow to tolerate you.

- I'd better get going.
- Player: I'd better get going.
