Dialogue

Oh. So you're the corpse they tossed on the beach. I guess you weren't dead. Well, welcome to hell island. There's no way off this island and you'll soon die like the others.

• Who are you?

I think my name is Riger. That's what a crone called me once. They stole my memories. Ripped them from my head! My skills, too! I mean, I can barely read now. I have to assume I knew a lot of things, but now... nothing. Do you know who you are?

• It's all hazy...

The crones called you (player's name) when they tossed you here. One of them said you might be a Prodigy, but ... well, a Prodigy wouldn't be here with their mind blanked, would they?

• What's a Prodigy?

Wow, your mind-wipe went deep, didn't it? Poor bastard. A Prodigy is someone born with one of the four gifts. Things like super learning or amazing physical strength. Don't worry about it... you aren't one.

• Will my memories come back?

No, they stole them out of your head, same as mine. They'll never come back. We're going to be like this forever: Stupid and ignorant in a hut.

• It's a nice hut.

Oh, this old thing? Well, the bed is mine. You can sleep on the porch. The skeletons don't come up here, so you'll be safe.

• You mentioned some crones. Who are they?

They're just some crones that come by every month or two They leave a few bodies in the sand. Sometimes they leave us food or supplies, but not very often.

• What's a crone?

They're a race of people, like elves or humans, but uglier. They stink pretty badly and like to cackle. That's all I know.

• Why do they bring people here?

No idea. I mean, if they wanted to kill people, they'd just throw them into the sea. but they carefully row ashore and then dump people on the beach.

• Is that how you got here?

Yeah, I guess so. It was a while ago.

• When will they return again?

A month, maybe.

• Damn, that's too long! There has to be a way off this island!

Sure, just swim to Serbule. It's only a few miles.

Wait, you look optimistic. That was a joke! You can't swim to Serbule. If the extreme currents didn't kill you, the devil sharks would. No, you're stuck here.

• I really want to escape.

Suit yourself, tiger.

• Is there anything I can do for you?

I don't know. I mean, I don't even want to escape, you know? It doesn't matter anymore. I think I'm seriously depressed. But I can't figure out a fix. I wish I could feel some hope again.

• Heavy. Well, I'll see what I can do.

(Asking this question gives the quest Cheer Up Riger, which can be solved by giving him some Pick-Me-Up Juice)
