Bestowal Dialogue

'Subtlety has served me well in the past, but from what I have learned, the Iron Crown answer only to two things: their self-styled masters... and force!

'Within the orders you found, there was mention of a jailor dispatched to the Witch-gate to deliver me to the Iron Crown at the Drearspire. As I am swiftly learning, the Iron Crown seem fond of bestowing fanciful titles upon themselves and their followers. For instance, they call this would-be jailor a "key-warden". If one needs for so many keys, I wager they do not trust their locks.

'Unless my ears have deceived me, the Dourhands use some sort of summoning horn to communicate with the Iron Crown. Perhaps if you were to greet the key-warden in the Dourhands' stead, you might find the key to this cage!'
