Marks of MaliceGreeting Text
I've had an influx of patients recently—so I need more supplies, stat. Many of them have those marks, carved deep into their skin. Some of the cuts are precise, almost surgical, while others look like they were made by a less experienced hand. There's something about these wounds that's disturbing.

Completion Text
While you were gone, I confirmed my hypothesis. They're not healing like they should, and I can't help but wonder if whatever was used to make those cuts was coated in some kind of poison. I need to look into something, and I'll need your help soon, so hurry back.

In the Name of ProgressComplete Quest:
"Marks of Malice"
Greeting Text
I'm a man of medicine, but there's more to this world than what I can fix with a scalpel. I need to understand the magical side of things—curses, spirits, and all that unnatural business. Wisps are one such mystery. They don't behave like anything I know. So, let us do what we must for the sake of advancement.

Completion Text
I've gained valuable insight, even in my old age, but there's still more to discover. Wisps are just a small part of the bigger picture. Now, it's time for something more invasive.

Whispers of the PastComplete Quest:
"In the Name of Progress"
Greeting Text
I've been investigating the Spectral Knight's chambers, and I've found signs of recent activity. Something happened there recently, and I need you to search for traces of a ritual. It's vital we uncover what was done, as it could give us a clearer understanding of what we're up against.

Completion Text
What you found in those chambers paints a clearer picture, but there's still much to unravel. The ritual is tied to the curse, and we're getting closer to understanding its source.

Greeting Text
I must admit my curiosity for knowledge gets the best of me at times. I'm interested with the inner workings of a couple particular creatures in the castle. Your assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Completion Text
Simply incredible. Not in a millennia would I have ever guessed this to be the case. Do not disclose my actions to my brother as he despises my methods. Take these for your vow of silence.

Surgery is a delicate art that requires the proper tools. Although my current supplies are adequate I would be more comfortable with a few more at hand.

Completion Text
That will do the job. Precision and reliability are important in my field of work. It's a shame my brother doesn't hold the same standards.

Greeting Text
Suffering an unattended injury in the unforgiving chill of the mountains can be a death call. I can explain the process but I recommend first hand practice with proper first aid to improve your survival odds. Only utilize a potion if worse comes to worse.

Completion Text
I hate to admit it but my brother's concoctions may have some use after all. Still, I stand by methods as the most effective.

Greeting Text
Even as a man of science, I must admit that the power of the divine have their role. I am however curious as to the limits of the gods. I have a simple experiment I'd like you to undertake for me.

Completion Text

Verification of Medical SuppliesComplete Quest:
"Stone And Bones"
Greeting Text
More and more people are using the medical supplies found in the dungeon. I warned them not to use unverified items, but no one seems to listen. Do you think the same way they do? ...Adventurers, honestly. If that's the case, then at the very least, I want to ensure their safety. Please help me by testing as many of these dungeon-sourced medical supplies as possible and reporting the results.

Completion Text
How was it? Did your condition worsen in any way? Or were there any side effects...? Are you saying it was truly fine? Even though the most basic hygiene must have been lacking, it still worked? ...If it's effective, I suppose I can't stop people from using it. Though I still hope they reconsider. In any case, thank you for letting me know.

Whose Scream Is It?Complete Quest:
"Verification of Medical Supplies"
Greeting Text
Strange rumors have been spreading recently. They say screams can be heard throughout the Forgotten Castle. Of course, that place has never been silent—I know that well. However... they claim these are the screams of a woman. Yet, there were no female adventurers present. Could you verify whether this is merely a rumor or something real?

Completion Text
Are you saying you heard nothing at all? ...I see. Very well. I asked you to investigate just in case, but perhaps finding nothing is actually for the best. At the very least, I hope the leathersmith never hears of these rumors. I don't wish to see that look of disappointment on his face again.

The Worth of the DungeonComplete Quest:
"Whose Scream Is It?"
Greeting Text
I am considering ways to repurpose the fabrics recovered from the dungeon. Since many adventurers are already using dungeon-sourced medical supplies without hesitation, I wonder if other materials could also be of use. If I find something suitable, it could help compensate for the shortage of resources. I would appreciate it if you could gather as many different types of fabric as possible.

Completion Text
Thanks to you, I'll have enough materials to experiment with for a while. I only hope that at least one of these fabrics proves useful as a resource. First, I'll need to boil them thoroughly to cleanse them.
