;Event pre
:'''Historian Vermoth:''' ''There's some kind of energy field surrounding [[Altar of Tempests|the altar]]. I can't get through.''
:'''Historian Vermoth:''' ''A ghost! Stand back!''
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''Priestess, ha! You never knew [[Dwayna]], not as I did. You never gazed into her luminous face...''
:'''Malchor the Sculptor''': (scream) ''My eyes! I see nothing...Nothing but you, my goddess. Nothing but a perfection I can never recapture...''
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''I can't take it anymore!''
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''Dwayna!''
:'''Historian Vermoth:''' ''By [[Six Human Gods|the Six]], that was him! Malchor. Well, it was his spirit at least.''
:'''Historian Vermoth:''' ''Legend says his love for Dwayna drove him to leap off her temple to his death. He seemed to be reliving that.''
:'''Historian Vermoth:''' ''Oh, I see! He's using his spirit as a shield, protecting Dwayna's altar with his energy. That means he's the only one who can remove it.''
:'''Historian Vermoth:''' ''We must find out where his spirit's hiding and then drive him back up here to the altar.''
:'''Historian Vermoth:''' ''Malchor's ghost created this barrier. Only his spirit can remove it. We need to get him back here.''

;Event start
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''I won't go back there! I can't face her!''
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''Dwayna is radiant, perfect...beauty itself, distilled into its purest form. I labored for years to capture her grace in stone, but I lacked the skill. It drove me mad.''
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''I cringed whenever some fool admired my pathetic attempts at sculpture. Why? Why was I cursed with these talentless hands?''
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''I can't go back there. Her altar reminds me of my passion...and my failure.''

;At 75% resolve
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''Leave me alone!''

;Upon reaching the shore
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''Enough! I will go no farther.''

;At 50% resolve
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''Leave me alone!''

;Upon reaching the middle of the Plaza of Lights
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''The lights... Is it time for the festival? Dwayna, where are your followers?''
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''What is this? Rotted, mindless drones. Shameful! I'll be no part of this. Make them go away!''

;While defeating the Risen
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''Filth! Your very existence mocks the goddess of life.''
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''Wretched undead! You don't deserve to walk in Dwayna's light!''{{Verify|Never heard this line. Perhaps nowadays the Risen are killed too fast.}}

;After all the Risen are defeated
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''Are they gone? Perhaps I can get a little bit closer...''

;While climbing the stairs to the Altar of Tempests
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''Her eyes, I feel them watching me. Look away, goddess! Let me hide my shame.''
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''Forgive me! I did the best I could...''
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''Leave me alone!''
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''My tribute to Dwayna lies near. No! Stay away from her! This one place must remain unsullied. My pure offering to the goddess.''
:'''Historian Vermoth:''' ''Just a little more. Drive him into the barrier!''

;Event completion
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''I have failed you, my goddess.''
:'''Historian Vermoth:''' ''Stand down. He's defeated. Let him speak his piece.''
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''You asked me to carve your image so people might know you, but I could never capture your grace, your beauty.''
:'''Malchor the Sculptor:''' ''And now the small protection I've placed upon it must fall...I've failed to protect you, my love.''

== Notes ==
* Malchor's "Dwayna" cry can be heard throughout the map, regardless if you are near the event or not.
