DialogueEdit
You will find the pair playing a game called tooth and claw as you approach them.
- Lorkik: "I am a dreugh, a hard-shelled storm-caller!"
- Viskyr: "And I am an ornaug! A sea-riding, shell-cracker!"
- Lorkik: "I am—curses! You win again, Vikskyr!"
If you speak to Vikskyr, you can partake in the game.
- "Welcome, friend! Have you come to face Vikskyr in a game of tooth and claw? Or, will you quiver in your boots like these other so called challengers?"
- How do you play tooth and claw?
- "Tooth and claw is a game of wits played around the halls of Shor's Stand. I name an animal and you choose another to counter it. We keep going until one of us fails to name a creature than [sic] can overcome the other."
- Is that all?
- "Is that all, the little bird says? I propose a test. As I am the champion, I will begin with a beast and you will name its counter.
If I say, "I am a wolf, with a flesh rending bite," how would you respond?" - I am a bear, with a thick hide and mighty claws.
- "Aha! There we go! A wonderful counter by naming a more ferocious beast. You seem to know what you're doing. Are you ready to face Vikskyr, the champion beast tamer?"
- Let's play tooth and claw!
- I am a snake, with a venomous bite!
If you answer his first prompt with the bear, you will be dropped into a proper game of tooth and claw:
- "We begin with a small, yet feisty beast.
I am a rat, with a pestilent bite!" - I am a raven, with talons like knives.
- "I am a cat, with claws that cut wings!"
- I am a dog, with a taste for sweet cats!
- "I am a boar, with tusks that break bones!"
- I am a troll that loves pork charred or raw!
- "I am an ogrim, my club pounds trolls to dust!"
- I am a dragon, with teeth like swords and a breath of fire!
- "Genius! Perhaps your breath is flame as I can feel my cheeks burning with embarrassment! Tales will be told of how you bested Vikskyr the champion beast tamer of tooth and claw!"
- I am a sench, with claws that tear flesh.
- "(?)"
- I am a guar, with a head like solid rock.
- "(?)"
- I am a rabbit, with keen eyes that see all.
- I am a squirrel, with nut cracking teeth.
- "(?)"
If you best Viskyr in the game, Lorkik cheers:
- Lorkik: "Amazing! You beat Vikskyr! Nice work! Watch out, Vikskyr, I'll beat you next!"
- Viskyr: "Ha! Then let's head to the inn. I need a drink if we're going to play again."
The two then head off to Shor's Stand.
