Bard Stronghold opening night spoilers

Post by Luther »

Big spoiler for the Bard Stronghold below....


I just finished the Bard Stronghold quest for the first time and....(highlight)

thought I'd post the lines you need to say. I screwed this up at first, went online to find the answers and couldn't find them anywhere. So I figured I'd do a service and post the right lines (courtesy of IE.)
-Luther-

You shall not die here this day, woman of the lands below. I have seen you wander through the wind and through the snow. And, though I wished it not, you made your way here...

I shall call me servant to tend to you, quickly. But then you must go, I would fear.

Ask no more questions, woman, but come inside from the cold. The keep is warm enough, for now, and the boy will come as he was told.

I... am the wizard Velden. Does this frighten you?

You do not understand, my dear. I have watched centuries... ages... unfold. You are but a passing flame, soon extinguished... and one day just a name.

I cannot embrace you as you wish, Karenina, this cannot be.

To accept... would be a pain for me I cannot speak. Do not do this, good Karenina, I beg you, fly away...

The kindest and cruelest act that I could summon, good pupil. The lass is gone. Now go.

Karenina wished to join me in my neverending life, good Whitten. But even I could not wish upon another such a fate. But, truer still, I could not bear to part with her... my wife.

Aye. Married now and forever more. Karenina will stand forever for me to look upon... and she will not suffer the long years nor the pain that would make her weep...

For Karenina is now eternal stone... and in that blessed stone forever shall she sleep...

Now go, my pupil... leave me with my bride. I shall touch her cold and unrelenting cheek once more... tonight a part of me has died inside.

Death by pieces, small and many though they are...

What crueler a fate... could await an eternal star?

Well...

[QUOTE=estaze]What is this Bard Stronghold? and where do i find it :O?[/QUOTE]

You get the Bard stronghold quest if you're a Bard (or have multi-strongholds installed) and recue Haer'Dalis & Co. from the planar prison. You get to stage a play....
I have given up all lesser evils as inadequate to my purpose.
