Dialogue
 * Ahai! Are you Sunspears? Don't be alarmed.  I have no love for Varesh.  But I am looking for a Sunspear myself.  Do you happen to know Koss?  I have a friend who's always telling stories about bailing Koss out of jams.  Well, now it apears my friend, Wekehsa, has gotten himself into trouble and needs Koss's help.  If you could relay a message I would appreciate it.  Tell Koss that his old friend Wekehsa needs to meet him.  He is somewhere in the Floodplain of Mahnkelon. Can you give Koss the message?

Intermediate Dialogue 1
 * Koss: Something smells... like bananas. Wait a moment.  What in the name of Lyssa are you carrying?
 * Wekehsa: Ah, yes... I... erm... intercepted a shipment of weapons bound for Vabbi. This shipment included a scythe made from gold and platinum shaped like... a banana.
 * Wekehsa: Since it was packed in a produce crate, it even smells like one. A Vabbian lord had commissioned it for a small fortune, but it's taken me forever to find a buyer.
 * Wekehsa: I'm supposed to meet my buyer out here, but now I fear the lord may be planning...
 * Koss: ...to relaim his property? At any cost?  Typical, Wekehsa.  And now I suppose you need out help to reach your buyer safely?
 * Koss: Very well, we'll help. But you're going to owe me a favor.  A big favor! HUGE!
 * Wekehsa: Thank you, Koss. You won't regret this.  Follow me.  We're not that far away.

Intermediate Dialogue 2
 * Koss: What's gotten into those drakes? They aren't usually this agressive.
 * Wekehsa: They seemed to be drawn to the scthe. I wonder why?  Do they hate bananas?

Intermediate Dialogue 3
 * Wekehsa: All of these drakes can't be a coincidence. I've heard that Lord Yama the Vengeful is fond of employing unusual means to destory his enemies.  This must be his work.
 * Koss: Lord Yama the Vengeful? Wekehsa, in the future, you mught want to refrain from stealing things belonging to anyone with "the Veneful" in their name.
 * Koss: You should also add "the cruel" and "the bloody" to that list.

Intermediate Dialogue 4
 * Koss: These aren't Kournan drakes! These drakes aren't even from this continent!

Intermediate Dialogue 5
 * Koss: Enough is enough! I have had it with these Balthazar-blasted drakes on this Balthazar-blasted plain!

Intermediate Dialogue 6
 * Wekehsa: Lord Yama! You're my buyer?
 * Lord Yama the Vengeful: Lord Yama the Vengeful, if you please! I've worked too hard for that title to to be known as just Lord Yama.
 * Lord Yama the Vengeful: ''You didn't suspect that drakes are naturalyy attracted to the smell of bananas did you? If not for these Sunspears you'd be dead!
 * Koss: Do you just expect us to give you scythe?
 * Lord Yama the Vengeful: No, Sunspear. I expect you to die!

Reward Dialogue
 * That was certainly... interesting. Look, I owe you and Koss my life.  If you ever need anything, you just let me know.  Oh and... hey!  Why don't you take the scythe as well.  I'll never find a buyer for it.  I mean, only a crazy person would fight with a banana.  But a pointed stick... now that's a weapon.
