Bestowal Dialogue

'Many in Hultvís think me mad, but the children believe me!

'They have heard the old tales from their mothers and fathers... those sinister rhymes that speak of Old Mad Ubb. A creature come out of the night to punish children for their misdeeds? Nonsense!

'But... buried within the fables their parents tell them of Ubb, there are truths of which I dare not speak.

'Ask the children of Hultvís about the one called Ubb!'

Background

Since the days of Atta's youth, the terrible creature that haunted Avabárg has passed into legend and it is now known by a more fanciful name among the children of Hultvís.

Objective 1

  • Ask the children of Hultvís about Ubb (0/8)

Children of the Woodmen can be found in Hultvís.

Unwilling to speak more of it himself, Atta has told you to ask the children of Hultvís about a creature named Ubb.

Girl says, "I thought I saw Ubb's eyes shining in the dark one night, but it was just some fireflies!"
Boy says, "It's no good to go out after dark, Old Mad Ubb will take me!"
Girl says, "Old Mad Ubb? I'm too old for that story!"
Boy says, "Father says if I lie to him, my hair will fall out like Ubb's did!"
Girl says, "If I forget to bolt the door, Ubb might take my little brother!"
Boy says, "If I don't finish my supper, mother says I'll end up eating worms and grubs like Old Mad Ubb!"
Girl says, "I don't want to talk about Ubb! Mother says it brings bad luck!"
Boy says, "Don't leave the shutters unlatched on a cold night... Ubb might steal your shoes for his scabby feet!"
Asked the children of Hultvís about Ubb (8/8)

Objective 2

Atta can be found in Hultvís.

You have spoken to the children of Hultvís about Ubb, and you have learned much of the legend of the Snatcher. You should return to Atta.

Atta: 'Do you believe them, <name>?
'If you knew as I do... you would.'
