Ambient dialogue

On the ledge behind Humbled Den

Manikaz: The Golden Lake... Seraf shunted me nearby before he... (upset scoff) He died.

Manikaz: And for what? The titans chased and gutted me like the rest.

Manikaz: Everything... The sacrifices, the years wasted puppeteering the heretics... I cannot allow it to be for nothing.

Manikaz: This spectral form is limited, but I have my wits, my mastery of bloodstone, and the will to use them.

On a ledge northwest of Lakeside Watch POI

Astral Ward Skirmisher: Mabon told me of the Golden Lake many times. To see it for myself...

Priory Arcanist: Heard that name a couple times. One of your "wizards"?

Astral Ward Skirmisher: He was. Died over a year ago now.

Astral Ward Skirmisher: The "Golden Lake" is uttered in many of our enchantments. According to record, it used to be dense with magic.

Astral Ward Skirmisher: It likely preceded the city itself. The mursaat used it for spellcraft—even during their war against the seers. But now...

Priory Arcanist: Doesn't look like there's any juice left.
