Thane & Karas
Thane
Have you ever walked the walls of the old stone keep at the northern ridge? I’ve been checking its structure, but I keep hearing whispers about a hidden passage that might still hold secrets.
Karas
Ah, the northern ridge keep, its stones still hum when the wind blows just right. I've walked those walls long enough to feel the pulse of the old ones. They say a hidden passage runs behind the cracked window by the north tower, but it only opens when the moon is a silver coin in the sky. Keep your lantern close, and listen for the sigh of the stone—sometimes the keep remembers its secrets when you’re ready to hear.
Thane
Sounds like a good plan. I’ll check that window when the moon is bright, keep the lantern lit, and stay alert for any odd sounds. If something’s off, I’ll know right away. Let's get it done.
Karas
Sounds like you’re ready to hear what the stone wants to tell you. Just remember, old keepers like this never want strangers to pry too far. Keep your lantern steady and your mind quiet, and if the wall sighs, that’s the first sign you’re on the right path. Good luck.
Thane
Got it. I’ll stay tight to the line, keep my head clear, and move only when the stone gives a clear sign. Thank you.
Karas
You're welcome, traveler. Keep your feet steady and your eyes on the stone, and may the old walls give you the answer you seek. Good luck.
