== Dialogue ==
;Prior to event activation, these dialogues will keep repeating until the event becomes available.
:'''[[Larano]]:''' ''Remember the good old days when [[Balthazar]] was on our side, great heroes visited regularly, and bad guys were defeated?''
:'''[[Chessa]]:''' ''We could use a few of those adventurers right now. Most Elonians are either Awakened or enamored with Joko.''
:'''Larano:''' ''And they think we're poor, misguided spirits.''
:'''[[Kane]]:''' ''All of them were born into [[Joko]]'s Rule. They've never known anything better.''
:'''Chessa:''' ''I hate Joko.''

:'''Kane:''' ''I'm so glad [[Dunkoro]] suggested that we keep watch outside of the [[Lair of the Forgotten|Lair]].''
:'''Chessa:''' ''I know, just to get away from the curator.''
:'''Larano:''' ''And we thought he was insufferable when he was alive. Spending eternity with his ghost... I weep.''
:'''Chessa:''' ''He's twice the snake he used to be. I'll bet he still sends people into danger to protect himself.''
:'''Kane:''' ''That ghost owes me five gold. He never paid me for being his guide more than two centuries ago!''
:'''Larano:''' ''Let it go. What would you do with five gold anyway?''

:'''Kane:''' ''All right, I have to ask: When did we become...aware...of the present? Do you remember?''
:'''Larano:''' ''No. It's like going unconscious... You don't always remember how it happened. You just know you that you're now awake.''
:'''Chessa:''' ''I heard it had to do with Joko's meddling in the Underworld. But, whatever it was, our minds are here now.''

:'''Chessa:''' ''Joko must really hate us. He even went so far as to make those Awakened ghost eaters.''
:'''Larano:''' ''Well, he can't control us or turn us into Awakened. That spells trouble for him.''
:'''Kane:''' ''If he keeps sending his reanimated stooges after us, he'll get more than trouble.''
:'''Larano:''' ''That's the problem with Awakened - they never go away.''
:'''Chessa:''' ''Neither do we.''

:'''Kane:''' ''I feel like I'm on ghost eater high alert all the time these days.''
:'''Larano:''' ''Can we funnel some ghost eaters to the curator? Please?''
:'''Chessa:''' ''I wish, but no. Our friends are near there, too.''

:'''Larano:''' ''Where are the Sunspears? Shouldn't they be fighting for Elona and cleaning up this mess?''
:'''Kane:''' ''I haven't heard so much as a whisper about them. My guess? They're all either dead or hiding.''
:'''Chessa:''' ''That's a morbid thought. If they were dead, some of them would be among us.''
:'''Kane:''' ''I haven't kept up with the news.''
:'''Larano:''' ''I guess I was picturing a whole slew of them showing up to squash Joko's putrid empire.''
:'''Chessa:''' ''Speaking of whispers... There may be no Sunspears left, but there is someone who could rally the mortals.''

;Once the event becomes available
:'''Kane:''' ''The Awakened and Forged are setting up siege engineers at our perimeter.''
:'''Chessa:''' ''I see them - there, across the sands. We need to stop those Forged weapons.''
:'''Larano:''' ''And the awakened have their weapons atop that hill... Can't we just tell them to come back later?''
:'''Chessa:''' ''The ghosts of the Lair are not an army. If we can't fight one enemy, how can we fight two?''
:'''Larano:''' ''He's right, but we have to find a way.''
:'''Kane:''' ''Those Forged and Awakened fighting over there have given me an idea.''
:'''Kane:''' ''Remember those old junundu lures our Forgotten friend used? The ones that you baited with sulfur crystals?''
:'''Chessa:''' ''Sure, but what do we need junundu for?''
:'''Kane:''' ''What do you think would happen if we stuck some giant wurms right into the middle of those battles?''
:'''Larano:''' ''Sounds fun. I'm in. Let's split up and see how many crystals we can get, then bait the lures and stand back.''
:'''Chessa:''' ''We'll need help to get all those crystals fast enough, but that shouldn't be a problem. Let's do it.''

:'''Kane:''' ''We've got a plan to bait the old junundu lures with sulfur crystals, but we need help. You up to it?''

;Once an event has been accepted or three minutes has passed
:'''Kane:''' ''I hope we got enough help. Since we're splitting up, we'll each need extra hands.''
:'''Chessa:''' ''Guess we'll find out. Now let's go already - those sulfur crystals are a bit ephemeral, so they need to be gathered fast.''
:'''Larano:''' ''Bet I can get my lures baited faster than you two.''
:'''Chessa:''' ''You're on. Good hunting, and see you back there. Okay, move out!''
:'''Kane:''' ''We can't allow them to get any closer. We must defend the Lair!''

;Upon event failure
:'''Chessa:''' ''Oh, no! The sulfur crystals are fading, and we failed to summon the wurm! Fall back!''
:'''Larano:''' ''Well, he can't control us or turn us into Awakened. That spells trouble for him.''
:'''Kane:''' ''If he keeps sending his reanimated stooges after us, he'll get more than trouble.''
:'''Larano:''' ''That's the problem with Awakened - they never go away.''
:'''Chessa:''' ''Neither do we.''
