Bestowal Dialogue
'Many of the sailors who crewed the Wave-hunter sustained injuries during the storm, and Bruidis wants to prepare a salve that will help make them more comfortable while they recover. She has set me to fish, for apparently this salve has need of fish-scales, but there are other ingredients to be gathered. Speak to her and she will tell you what else she needs, if you are of a mind to help.'

Speak to her and she will tell you what else she needs, if you are of a mind to help.'
- Bruidis: 'Rossaran has enlisted you to help me gather the ingredients I need to brew the salve? He is a good man, my husband. But you would have offered to help me anyway, would you not? I think I am a good judge of character, not just of husbands but of friends, as well.
- 'This salve requires herbs tough enough to grow on the nearby beach, flowers nourished by the damp air blanketing this isle, and several pieces of tree-bark, which you should be able to take from a large grey tree I saw to the west. Bring these ingredients back to me and I will tell you about the next steps.'

But do not let me distract you any further... there is surely work to be done elsewhere on the Shield Isles, and I know the Lady Nauriel wants nothing to delay the rescue of her son from the Kindred of the Coins!
- 'But I know a thing or two about such things, and we will want the members of the crew to be as rested and comfortable as they can be when the time comes to mount the rescue. Injured men fight poorly, no matter how brave they may be when hale, or during peacetime.
- 'Thank you once again, <name>. We will not forget that you helped us... all of us!'
