*cough*

Noooo!

Without question!


Heard any news from the other provinces?

Did you hear that? Did you? Voices from nowhere, madmen...

Stay away from me. You've already spent too much time... over there.

I'm so happy to see you, I could *BURST!!!*

So I've heard

Is there a problem, citizen?

I heard all of Skyrim is under siege! The daedra lay waste to the old holds, and there is little to do to stop it!

He's a raving lunatic. I'm assuming you're asking because he's done something strange. Like what? Oh, like shouting obscenities at you, or wearing only fur for an entire year, or waiting outside your house every morning. Not that you'll get anyone else in town to admit it. 'Oh, he's harmless, we're used to him.' Harmless, ha! One day he'll snap. Then watch out.

You don't say.

What hole did YOU crawl out of?

I need you to leave so I can lock up.

Sounds like the Empire has given up on stopping the skooma trade in Elsweyr, and I hear tribal chiefs are supporting the Renrijra Krin.

It's hard to complain. The food is good and the service is excellent

Is this truuuue?

Nords who drink either get friendly or mean. I'm here to deal with the mean ones

I've heard that J'skar is great at making things explode

Nothing I'd like to talk about.

Stay away!

My cousin says the beggars all work for the Gray Fox. It's rather frightening.

I sing your praises, and welcome you again!

Captain Burd and I make a good pair. He understands Nords and the North, while I appreciate teh subtleties of southern culture and politics.

I'm sorry. You're not yet ready for a promotion. Keep completing contracts, and take care of any assigned duties

Othrelos is a sneaky one. Kind of makes you wonder what he's up to

I need you to leave so I can lock up.

Sorry. Only one copy of The Black Horse Courier per customer

I take it you want something from me. Well, what is it?

You and me are what stand between order and chaos. Without us, the Empire would crumble.

Leave me alone!

Here to sell me some more Nirnroot?

No.

Captain Burd and I make a good pair. He understands Nords and the North, while I appreciate the subtleties of southern culture and politics.

Did I give you the key after lockup last night? I really can't remember

No.

I'm your relief.

Anytime now.

You want me? You sure? I'm Vigge. I'm Mages Guild but I don't train or anything

No doubt.

How does the day greet you, friend?

Fantastic! Thanks for asking!

Been here. Right here! All day! Last night, too! I wasn't there! Not there at all! I can totally prove it! Ask anyone!

I hear Daedra worship has become increasingly prevalent in the Summerset Isles.

So I've heard

The Dividing Line between a live hero and a dead one is a sharp sword. Get the best you can afford from Tun-Zeeus...

Because you don't want to be on the dead guy side of the line, do you?

What a shame.

You get used to the cold. Got a good set of fur boots to keep my feet warm. Give a Nord a good thumping to keep the blood flowing. khah-khah-khah

{At first I didn't see the 't' in thumping and thought, 'What a great idea!' }


"The Mystic Archives have a large collection of books. Look around, and you might learn a thing or two."

Still here stranger? You're not actually renting a room, are you?

Ok, but please be brief. I've got some.... research to tend to.

For the love of Azura, can't a man have a bit of privacy? Get out of here!


[Rythe Lythandas just said this to me yesterday after I completed the A Brush With Death quest, even though he and his wife made it clear I was welcome anytime after saving him. And it was still mid-to-late afternoon, so time wasn't an issue either. I think he did that to me in my first playthrough, too. Truly amazing how many NPCs in Oblivion have schizophrenia or multiple personality disorder.]

Oh? If that's the way you feel about it.

May you rest in peace.




(Yeah I love when they stuff which is totally inappropriate for the situation!)

Take some advice? Go down to the sea. Stand awhile. Think of the distant lands across the water

Go away fool!

Are you quite sure, Inquisitor? Very well... Please don't have too much fun without me.

(In the midst of replaying The Shivering Isles expansion. I forgot about Herdir and his hilariously dark voice and lines. He enjoys his job far too much.)
