Dialogue
 * "Shortly before your arrival, strange occurrences became commonplace. Once staid stone formations have been given life; they now walk these cursed lands engaging any poor fool they encounter. They are vicious. I have lost many to their fury, though they are not infallible. A group of my men cornered one of them and shattered it into hundreds of pieces. At its core they found a glowing shard pulsing with a magic I have not seen."


 * "If we are to decimate these monsters we must understand everything about them. Fetch me more shards and I will unlock their secrets."
 * Accept: "Let's rock."
 * Reject: "I'm too old to rock 'n' roll."
 * When asked about quest: "Have you gathered enough glowing shards from the graven monoliths yet?"
