27 = "The continent of Valorim is the most unusual and wild of the lands controlled by the Empire, and many questions remain about its future. It was only recently settled, after all, and the frontier spirit remains.";
28 = "The people of Valorim have little in common with our Empire cousins. We have not been as controlled by the Empire bureaucracy, and do not share many of its prejudices, such as the lethal hatred of nephilim and Avernites.";
29 = "As more people flood into our land and we become more similar to the more settled, controlled other Empire continents, the question is: how will the wilder spirits of Valorim deal with the inevitable, crushing control the Empire brings?";
30 = "One thing is for sure. Before long, we will look more and more to Blackcrag Fortress, the massive Empire stronghold at the north end of Valorim. But will they look down on us with understanding, or not?";

41 = "Since the troops won't let you disembark, the people on the ship have no choice but to take you back.";

43 = "Nell seems to be about to say something, but then she sees your Anama rings. She smiles nervously. _I appreciate your help. It is rare that I see your kind assist outsiders. I shall return to my home as soon as I can. Thank you._";

45 = "Nell smiles. _Excellent. I shall return to my home as soon as I can. Thank you. Before I go, though, I want to give you help. I want to give you the sort of help the Anama would hate._";
