<ce>                        %god be with you, %pct.
<ce>                   You may have heard of _prophet_.
<ce>                 If you have not yet, you will. We are
<ce>                  investigating %g3 claims that %g is
<ce>                    a prophet. We are not, I think,
<ce>                   censorious by nature, but we must
<ce>                     ever be alert to the presence
<ce>                  of heretical influences. Would you
<ce>                    be available to assist in this
<ce>                       important investigation?
                                     <--->
<ce>                  It falls upon us to investigate the
<ce>                       claims of _prophet_ that
<ce>                  %g has seen the face and heard the
<ce>                      words of %god. Perhaps you
<ce>                      have time to assist in this
<ce>                               inquiry?

RefuseQuest:  [1001]
<ce>                         That's a pity, %pct.
<ce>                   I hope you will find time in your
<ce>                     busy schedule for the temple
<ce>                          in the near future.

AcceptQuest:  [1002]
<ce>                 Good. We have already sent one of the
<ce>                        Temple, _priest_ to the
<ce>                    desacrilized ___mondung_, where
<ce>                    _prophet_ asserts that %g first
<ce>                        witnessed the miracle.
<ce>                     If _priest_ needs assistance,
<ce>                I will send for you. In the meanwhile,
<ce>                 I want you to find some more secular
<ce>                       information on _prophet_,
<ce>                   by asking around in %g3 hometown,
<ce>                          __tavern_. A loyal
<ce>                       cleric of ours, _contact_
<ce>                      will meet you in _tavern_.
<ce>                  I want to see evidence of the true
<ce>                          nature of _prophet_
<ce>                   in no more than =queston_ days. I
<ce>                  would leave immediately. May Great
<ce>                   %god bless your enterprise, %pct.

QuestComplete:  [1004]
<ce>                     Well done, %pct. I tremble to
<ce>                    think what _prophet_ might have
<ce>                   done to our temple had %g spread
<ce>                        %g3 profane word. %god
<ce>                    bless you and keep you, goodly
<ce>                       %ra. Here, a small token
<ce>                    of the esteem of your brethren.

RumorsDuringQuest:  [1005]
Say what you want about _prophet_'s religion, but %g's a persuasive writer.
<--->
__qgiver_ is real nervous about having a revolutionary like _prophet_ around.
<--->
I read about _prophet_'s miracle in %g3 tract. I must say, it's persuasive.

RumorsPostfailure:  [1006]
_prophet_'s gone on to preach %g3 evangelium to the heathen folk of Tamriel.
<--->
_prophet_'s left the Bay, but %g3 work is not yet complete.
<--->
_prophet_ may be the greatest leader to come out of __tavern_.
<--->
_prophet_ spends %g3 time in %g3 room in _prophouse_, writing.
<--->
_prophet_ hasn't ever gotten on well with __qgiver_.

RumorsPostsuccess:  [1007]
That _prophet_ was a charletan who found some fools in __tavern_.

QuestorPostsuccess:  [1008]
For what thou hast done for the faith, I'd be happy to help thee.

QuestorPostfailure:  [1009]
I have nothing to say to thee, heretic of _prophet_.

QuestLogEntry:  [1010]
%qdt:
 _qgiver_ of ___qgiver_
 has sent me to investigate the life of
 _prophet_, who claims to
 be a prophet. I am to ask about %g2
 in %g3 hometown, __tavern_.
 _contact_ is waiting for
 me there to give me %g3 further
 instructions. I am to meet %g2
 at _tavern_.

Message:  1011
    I scarcely remember my voyage to the place
 called ___mondung_: I expect I was
 still partly dreaming. Deep within the stinking
 recesses of the profaned temple, I was met with
 a great fire and from the flames I heard the
 same voice speak: "Welcome."
      "Who art thou?" I addressed the flame.
      "I am what __qgiver_ doth
 proclaim to worship, but with every act and
 thought defile my divinity. To thee I called
 so that a new __qgiver_ might be
 created, one led by truth and true insight,
 and understanding of my Being. The heathen
 need insight, and you shall be it."
      The God told me more that day, but while
 the wicked __qgiver_ continues
 their policy of quashing any who dare to
 challenge their corrupted, contemptible
 theology, I must keep my tracts short. More
 will follow shortly hereafter.

 %pct %pcn,
 
      _priest_ has failed to
 meet with the man to whom %g was to report
 %g3 findings in ___mondung_.
 We must assume the worst.
      You are hereby ordered to find either
 _priest_ %g2-self or %g3 body
 in ___mondung_ and report back
 to me. All other assignments and investigations
 take lower priority.

Message:  1013
<ce>                 Ah hello, %pcf. Welcome to __tavern_.
<ce>              The whole town's in a buzz about that young
<ce>                     _prophet_. But %g isn't even
<ce>                   here -- %g's in __prophouse_ at a
<ce>                  tavern called _prophouse_, working
<ce>               on a new tract about what this mysterious
<ce>                     spirit of ___mondung_ had to
<ce>                 say about the moral disintegration of
<ce>                      __qgiver_. Here's a copy of
<ce>                the original tractate, so you know what
<ce>                      this _prophet_'s all about.
<ce>              Dangerous character from what I've seen so
<ce>                 far. I'm communicating with _lover_,
<ce>                   a =lover_ in ___lover_ with whom
<ce>                      _prophet_ had some kind of
<ce>                relationship. It wouldn't be a bad idea
<ce>                      for you to go to ___lover_
<ce>                   and see if you can't persuade %g2
<ce>                to talk to us. Hope all this is helpful
<ce>                          information, %pcf.

 Dear %pcn,
 
 
      There's been a horrible accident
 here at _tavern_, involving
 _contact_. Please come here
 when you can.
 
 
 Yours sincerely,
 
 _replace_

<ce>                        A young lad hands you a
<ce>                       letter and scurries off.

Message:  1016
<ce>                     %oth, %pcf, it was dreadful.
<ce>                    The tavernkeep found _contact_
<ce>                     in one of the rooms, %g3 body
<ce>                    defiled in the most horrifying
<ce>                     way, a grim parody of the old
<ce>                       __qgiver_ mortuary rites.
<ce>                         It was _prophet_, no
<ce>                    doubt. This relic was found in
<ce>                       _contact_'s chest cavity.
<ce>                            See if _lover_
<ce>                        in ___lover_ recognizes
<ce>                                  it.

Message:  1017
_lover_ -- ah, poor =lover_. Well, %g keeps mostly to %g3-self.
<--->
_lover_ is a =lover_ in __lover_. They say %g mourns for %g3 lost love.
<--->
No matter what anyone tells you, _lover_'s lover is not dead. Mad, not dead.
<--->
_lover_ is one of the tragedies in ___lover_. They say %g3 lover went mad.

Message:  1018
<ce>                 Whatever they say, I never knew that
<ce>                       _prophet_. Tell _contact_
<ce>                       %g has the wrong =lover_.

Message:  1019
<ce>                      _prophet_ would kill me if
<ce>                   %g knew I was talking to you. But
<ce>                  I know that you couldn't be working
<ce>                   for %g2. Here's a letter %g wrote
<ce>                   to me about a month ago. I think
<ce>                        it explains everything.

Message:  1020
<ce>                      _relartifact_! %oth, that's
<ce>                      poor _prophet_'s property.
<ce>                     %oth, I knew %g was unstable,
<ce>                but I never thought %g'd really do it.
<ce>                      %oth, poor _contact_. If I
<ce>                  had helped %g2, %g'd still be alive
<ce>                  today. This won't make up for what
<ce>                 I've done by failing to act, but you
<ce>                will know what to do with this letter.
<ce>                         May %god forgive me.

Message:  1021
_lover_, My Love,
 
 
      First, forgive the silence of your
 love. It was not another attack of brain
 fever. For some months now, I have been
 in spiritual turmoil, unfit to for any
 company, even for the comfort of your
 dulcet fellowship. My days of pain are
 over, but for this -- I can never see you
 again. My life has a higher purpose than
 the fulfillment of a ridiculous love affair
 now.
      No longer can I suffer the evil of
 __qgiver_, the evil they did
 to me, and the evil they are doing to all
 of Tamriel. The days the prophet Marukh
 spoke of are on us again. I must rally the
 people by any and all lies, innuendo, bigotry,
 and threats to rise against the spiritual
 tyranny of __qgiver_.
     Forgive me, my former love. And if you
 can, forget me. And if you can do neither,
 do not see me. If you do, I will slay you
 and stick candles in your eyes and twine
 your organs with beads for the greater
 glory of the gods of the universe. Filthy
 =lover_, torment me no longer.
 
<ce>                               _prophet_

Message:  1022
It used to be used in __qgiver_ burial rituals.

Message:  1023
_replace_ is that =replace_. Affiliated with __qgiver_ somehow.
<--->
_replace_ was an old friend of _contact_ before the ... accident.

Message:  1024
<ce>                        Oh! That's _prophet_'s
<ce>                       _relartifact_! %oth, poor
<ce>                       _contact_. Why don't you
<ce>                    bring that letter I gave you to
<ce>                         someone at __qgiver_?
<ce>                  Surely, that is enough to discredit
<ce>                         _prophet_, isn't it?

Message:  1025
<ce>                       %pcf, I thought that you
<ce>                   were supposed to be investigating
<ce>                      the situation in __tavern_.
<ce>                     Well, as long as you're here,
<ce>                    I have something different for
<ce>                    you to do. I've found some torn
<ce>                   up letters, scraps really, about
<ce>                          a =lover_ somewhere
<ce>                          in ___lover_ by the
<ce>                        name of _lover_. See if
<ce>                   you can't find something on %g2.
<ce>                    I don't know if %g'll talk, but
<ce>                           it's worth a try.

Message:  1026
<ce>                     You pick up a scrap of flesh,
<ce>               carefully, even ritually ritualistically
<ce>                      stripped from a =priest_'s
<ce>                    hand. This was once a finger of
<ce>                               _priest_.

Message:  1027
Truly nauseating.
<--->
A hacked off finger.
<--->
A chunk of somebody's hand.
<--->
Extremely tasteless.
<--->
Not bad with a little salt and honey.
<--->
It looks like an old __qgiver_ ceremony. They used to do that to corpses.
<--->
When in __qgiver_, _prophet_ used to disect cadavers just that precisely.
<--->
__qgiver_ abandoned that kind of funereal disection, but _prophet_ espouses it.

Message:  1028
<ce>                        It was nice of _priest_
<ce>                  to give me a hand, don't you think?
                                     <--->
<ce>                   %oth, what was I supposed to do?
<ce>                        _priest_ threatened to
<ce>                         finger me, after all.
                                     <--->
<ce>                  What an amusing plaything you have,
<ce>                       %pcf. See how it points.

Message:  1029
<ce>                    How they come to persecute me.
<ce>                  Abandon your unholy abuse, hound of
<ce>                         __qgiver_. I am under
<ce>                   protection of my god ... and the
<ce>                              %t of %reg.

Message:  1030
<ce>                       _lover_! False creature,
<ce>                      deceiver! How %g will pay!
<ce>                            =fighter_, deal
<ce>                            with this %ra!

Message:  1031
<ce>                       Thank %god, I was afraid
<ce>                      I had lost that. Thank you,
<ce>                               good %ra.

Message:  1032
%qdt:
 _contact_ tells
 me that _prophet_ is in
 _prophouse_ in __prophouse_,
 but it might be a good idea to go
 visit a =lover_ named
 _lover_ in ___lover_.
 _contact_ doesn't know the
 relationship between the two,
 but it's worth investigating.

Message:  1033
%qdt:
 _priest_ told
 me that the name _lover_
 and the town ___lover_
 were found on several scraps of
 paper in ___mondung_,
 bearing investigation.

Message:  1034
%qdt:
 _replace_ told
 me about the ritualistic murder of
 _contact_ and gave me
 some _relartifact_ found on
 the body. _replace_
 suggested that I go to ___lover_,
 show it to _lover_,
 and see if it convinces %g2
 to speak to me.

Message:  1035
%qdt:
 I just read a letter
 that _prophet_ sent _lover_
 a month ago and %g gave me. The
 letter should thoroughly
 discredit _prophet_
 to any and all of %g3 potential
 converts. The =prophet_
 was mad as a monkey.

Message:  1036
%qdt:
 I received a letter
 from _qgiver_ telling
 me to get to ___mondung_
 and see what happened to the priest,
 _priest_. I am to either
 find the =priest_ or
 evidence of %g3 death.

Message:  1037
%qdt:
 I found a finger which I presume was once attached
 to _priest_. It was curiously,
 even ceremoniously severed.
