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.

Conversations

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. / You again. Still alive? Well... that's good. I'd be pissed that you're in my house, but I'm too depressed.
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? (Asking this question gives the quest Cheer Up Riger)
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.
