Mr BrandonI have taken a few... things from down there, and now They are angry at me and haunt me. ...
Mr BrandonI dare not go back down there, but I lost my wedding ring! It means the world to me. ...
Mr BrandonI will grant you access to places deep under the sea, if you bring back my wedding ring - would you go looking for it at the bottom of the sea?
Playeryes
Mr BrandonThank you. I ask much, I know. You will meet horrible creatures that never saw the light of day, and they will come at you. But I hope you will make it back alive. ...
Mr BrandonSwim into the maelstrom behind me, and you will reach the bottom of the ocean.
Playerjob
Mr BrandonI, er, am some kind of ferryman to the bottom of the sea. Warden of the sea currents. But I really don't like to go back down there. <swallows hard> You can go on your own, you know.
Playerroswitha
Mr BrandonAh, my beloved wife. Quick temper and a warm smile. How I miss her cooking. Player: name
Mr BrandonTechnically, I am Wilbur Fortescue Brandon, but that doesn't mean much now.
Playernow
Mr BrandonAfter what I have seen, there is no going back. They'll haunt me and everyone here. I have to stand guard!
Playerguard
Mr BrandonI... I can't tell you.
Playertell
Mr BrandonNo, really! You would not believe me anyway.
Playerbelieve
Mr BrandonThat's what you say now, but I know you won't believe me. It is simply too monstrous.
Playermonstrous
Mr BrandonI have been deep, deep down below. I have seen them.
Playerthem
Mr BrandonI can't say their name or they'll come for me. And if they come for me, they will come for the city, too. I cannot let that happen.
Playercome
Mr BrandonI entered their lair and took some ... things. I should not have done that, but I did. And they awoke. They came after me.... I fled. ...
Mr BrandonThe mist closed around me like a choking fist. I remember the high sea, rolling and roaring and then - pain. Blackness. When I woke up, I was here. Home.
Playerthings
Mr BrandonI couldn't help it! We are poor, you know! I thought they'd fetch a good price if I sold them to the jeweller. <sigh> But I think they are cursed. They should be brought back where they came from.
Playerback
Mr BrandonOn the bottom of the ocean, there are sunken treasures and strange sites between the reefs. Wrecked ships lie there ... lost cities, drowned temples. ...
Mr BrandonWhen I was there, I saw these things, gleaming like lost jewels upon ancient altars. I thought, what use are they to the drowned? So I took them. But then, They awoke and hunted me. I fled in panic. ...
Mr BrandonBut I couldn't let go of the strange things I found. The gold, the nacre... it was so beautiful! Those others... They howled behind me. ...
Mr BrandonI went wild with fear and swam for my life, dropping the cursed gold. They grabbed me... They roared with anger, and pulled at me with a hundred cold and slimy tentacles, snatching at me. They tore off my wedding ring. Then I escaped. ...
Mr BrandonNow, I am doomed. Stranded between life and death for a bleak eternity. <sigh>
