Approaching him:
- "Orcs are honor and that… I wonder if he really tricked me?"
If spoken to before going to Vinedeath Cave:
- I don't guess you've run into a big, lumbering, brute of an Orc in your travels? Name's Storgh. Was a friend of mine, emphasis on the "was".
- I'm in a pile of trouble because of him.
- What sort of trouble?
- Maybe you've heard of the Right of Theft? A Wood Elf tradition. If you pull off a particularly clever theft, you can demand payment from the owner for their things.
- Well, I stole this treethane's bow. And then Storgh stole the bow from me.
- What's the problem?
- The treethane wants his bow back. And if I can't give it to him, he's going to have me hauled in and whipped.
- Last I heard, Storgh was headed toward Vinedeath Cave. The treethane won't let me leave town. Could you look for Storgh?
- I'll see what I can do.
Speaking to him again:
- "Storgh shouldn't be hard to track. You can smell him leagues away. But if I leave town, the treethane will send people after me, thinking I'm trying to escape with his bow.
I can't do a thing until I get that bow back."
Once you've retrieved the bow and returned to Elden Root:
- "You actually got the bow? Incredible. Did Storgh give you much trouble?"
- He was already dead. He met his end in Vinedeath Cave.
- "Vinedeath Cave remains true to its name, then. I'm sorry to hear it. Storgh might have been a dunderheaded double-crosser, but he was still my friend.
I figure I owe you what the treethane paid me for the bow. Some thief I turned out to be, eh?"
If you got the quest from Vinedeath Cave he will have different dialogue upon the return of his bow:
- "Hey! I'd recognize that bow anywhere. Where did you get that?"
- I found it in a cave. The owner mentioned you in his journal. I thought it might interest you.
- "Storgh's dead? Sad news, even if he did steal this bow from me.
It's a good thing you found it. I sort of owed it to a local treethane. Long story. I hope you'll accept this for a reward."
If spoken to again, he'll say:
- "Thaks again. Now I can give the treethane his bow back. I'm a free Elf!
Take care of yourself out there. Grahtwood is a dangerous place, as Storgh discovered."
