• Notes

   King Vestitus says, <:-- I tell you what, if you can prove yourself to the
    old sage in Devonshire, I might consider offering you my tutelage.  He's an
    old friend of mine, and can easily weed out the fools from those who would
    actually want to learn. --:> to you.

   King Vestitus says, <:-- I can provide instruction in cold tolerance, diplomacy,
    hardiness, heat tolerance, intelligence analysis, intimidation, leadership,
    logistics, ownership, philosophy, strategy, subordination, tactics, telesma,
    and underwater fieldcraft. --:> to you.

   King Vestitus says, <:-- So, Old Man Thrassos has sent you after the gems, has
    he? I swear, he never tires of his endless games and puzzles.  To that end, I
    will give you my gem if you perform satisfactorily in a riddle game.  I have
    sent scouts to the surface world, and they have returned with tales of strange
    things, and of the differences between our world and that one.  From these reports,
    I have constructed my riddles.  If at some point you need to hear the riddle again,
    simply ask me to repeat, and I will try to recollect which riddle I had just asked
    you.  I am old, and my memory is not as sharp as it used to be, so you'll have to
    forgive me if I forget.  When you feel you are worthy, you may ask for the reward. --:>
