Make yourself comfortable in my courtyard.

So this is your keep?

This place was constructed a decade ago as a guardhouse, where Council soldiers would patrol the trade route from here to Gazluk. Of course, that trade route is unlikely to exist now. I was given permission to live here and perhaps found a monastery. In exchange, I keep the monster population in check.

Hogan is the owner of the castle, referred in-game as Hogan's Keep. Hogan is a staff combat expert and is usually seen practicing his moves, when not talking to the visitors.

Hang Outs

At [Comfortable] Hogan offers to Hang Out:

  • Practice staff-fighting with Hogan (2h)
“

Excellent! You're learning quickly. Some day soon I expect you will best me! But not today.

20 favor with Hogan
500 Staff XP

  • Let Hogan try his new Staff moves on you (2h)
“

I almost had it that time. One more try!

... are you okay? You're weaving dizzily. Did you not slap out like I Taught you? Or maybe I hit too hard. Let's call it a day, okay?

20 favor with Hogan
500 Staff XP

  • Patrol around the fortress for dangerous monsters (2h)
“

That was exhilarating in its own way. And the way you bravely stuck your face in that Gnasher's mouth to distract it -- a truly heroic tactic, but maybe next time you should try something else. If you do try that again, use this first.
