    An Outcast Witch: Though her motives remain a mystery, Rubina's wisdom knows no bounds. I accept any assistance you have to offer.
    You: Describe to me three situations and I will advise you on each.
    An Outcast Witch: I have been sent to establish trade with a far Clan. The Clan Mother is agreeable to trade but insults my Clan during dinner.

    Singing Mountain Clan - You: Let the insult pass; words are not weapons.
    Nightsister - You: Angrily slay her; your Clan need not stand for this disrespect.

    An Outcast Witch: Interesting point; I will consider it. Are you ready for the second situation?
    You: I am.
    An Outcast Witch: Though I am a warrior, I have been asked by a Clan Elder to bring in a flock of herd beasts.

    Singing Mountain Clan - You: Do as the Elder wishes; none of us are any better than another.
    Nightsister - You: Coerce a lesser Clan sister to do the task but take credit yourself if asked.

    An Outcast Witch: Hmmmm... yes, I see. And now the final situation?
    You: I'm ready, let me hear it.
    An Outcast Witch: I caught my favored slave sharing the sleeping pallets of another Clan sister.

    Singing Mountain Clan - You: If she desires him for her own then allow her to offer you a suitable trade.
    Nightsister - You: Angrily strike them both down for their betrayal.

    An Outcast Witch: I thank you for your honesty; you have given me much to consider.
    You: Like what?
    An Outcast Witch: For the most part, your advice follows the course of my own heart and leads to the Singing Mountain Clan/Nightsisters.

    An Outcast Witch: The mysterious Crone Rubina has taken an interest in me and sent you to speak with me? Amazing. Well then, let us delay no further!
    You: Yes. Three situations and I'll tell you what I think of each.
    An Outcast Witch: In a duel to the death, I have disarmed my opponent.

    An Outcast Witch: Interesting point; I will consider it. Are you ready for the second situation?
    You: I am.

    Singing Mountain Clan - You: The spells are forbidden for a reason. You must find another way to defeat the patrol.
    Nightsister - You: If you have the power, use it and gain victory.

    An Outcast Witch: Hmmmm... yes, I see. And now the final situation?
    You: I'm ready, let me hear it.

    You: Okay, let's hear them.
    An Outcast Witch: A Trader owes payment to my Clan Sister which is now long overdue. One day, I see this Trader drop a bag of goods.

    Nightsister - You: Angrily inform the Trader that you are claiming the goods as payment and if it happens again it'll be his life.
