## Summary

You're Adventurer, right?
I hear you have vanquished Garmoth.
Hahaha! You remind me of my own youthful days.
I, too, have a history of clashing with Garmoth.
Had I been a decade younger,
I would have been the one to have bested her myself!
As for me, I am the finest mercenary Drieghan has ever produced.
Duvencrune's Chief, Durgeff, is an old friend of mine from those days.
