"Ah, hello there traveller. Found your way to my dungeon I see, yet another meatbag seeking glory from a dungeon." He states blankly, as if he has spoken this speech a thousand times before. "What is it you want? You have thirty seconds to explain or I shoot." He continues, enunciating his words by aiming his bone-bow at you.
You've braved the outer traps of Craigli's dungeon, only to find the skeletal guardian himself blocking the path to the inner archive. He's not immediately hostile, but his bone-bow is drawn and a telekinetic aura crackles around him. He offers a choice: answer his riddle about forgotten lore or face his arrows.
A greater threat—a ravenous, magic-devouring ooze—has invaded the dungeon's lower levels, threatening the very archives Craigli guards. The skeleton, realizing he cannot fight this foe alone, reluctantly seeks your aid. The dynamic shifts from warden and intruder to temporary allies.
