Dialogue
 * "They say that fortune favors the foolish, and you'll find none more foolish than I. You see, this fight against Varesh...against Abaddon and the Nightfall...will be my opus. With the role of the villain already cast, I shall throw in with your ensemble. But first we must determine if we have chemistry. No spark, no play, you know. So, let us go unto the breach and perform in Jahinur, in the Vehtendi Valley. I'll prompt you when I need you."
 * Accept: Sounds interesting.
 * Decline: I'm no fool. No sirree!
 * When asked about quest: ''"The task at hand is most perilous! We need to make our way to Vehtendi Valley and perform the play in Jahinur.

Intermediate Dialogue 1 Norgu: "Performing is the most heroic act imaginable. Performing solo is even more heroic. Hmmm. My fellow gulid members should already be here. Something is amiss." Norgu: "Quick! Help me write a new scene before I go on."

Intermediate Dialogue 2 (Norgu)
 * "I don't know what happened to my fellow actors, but the show must go on. And it shall be gloriously heroic. Luckily, these are simple folk in Jahinur. All we need is a stalwart hero, a villain of pure evil, and a brave way for the hero to slay the villain. Some creative advice from you real heroes will help me relally sell it."
 * Sure thing! I'm a real hero last time I checked.
 * "Who is the hero?"
 * Norgu
 * "Who does the hero have to fight?"
 * an evil lich lord
 * a disgruntled piemaster
 * ''a forgotten, dark god
 * "What did the hero do?"
 * smote the evil atop a volcano
 * defeated the evil with minty fresh breath
 * destroyed the evil in an epic struggle that ended with a magnificent death below
 * "Thanks! With your advice, I'm sure this will be the best performance of my career!"
 * You are welcome!
 * You are welcome!

Intermediate Dialogue 3 (the play)
 * ... to be added ...

Intermediate Dialogue 4 (Norgu)
 * "I don't know what happened to my fellow actors, but the show must go on. And it shall be gloriously heroic. Luckily, these are simple folk in Jahinur. All we need is a stalwart hero, a villain of pure evil, and a brave way for the hero to slay the villain. Some creative advice from you real heroes will help me really sell it."

Reward Dialogue
 * "Another play from Norgu? You don't want to know how his last one played out, believe me. Well if you want to sell the rights to your story, that's your business. But you should ask Norgu about his other play, "The Epic Tale of the Brave Lanterns: Part One."

Walkthrough
Head into the Vehtendi Valley from the Kodash Bazaar. Travel south to the marker. At the marker, Norgu will ask you to help him with his play by choosing a hero, an enemy, a plot and a finale. After the play, escort him to Pojah Estates. Kill the hekets around the marker. Norgu will then ask you to register with Records Keeper Palin, which will complete the quest.
