Dialogue Tobin: "I'm going to find the treasure. Yes, I am!"

You "That's why I am here actually."

Tobin: "Wait, you're after the treasure now too? First Prescott, and now you! I have enough competition with the other Swindles here!"

You "Prescott?"

Tobin: "The so-called journalist. A hack, if you ask me. You should talk to him, because I'm not wasting anymore time with you. And now I'd just like to go back to treasure hunting in peace!"

You "Fine, I'll talk to Prescott."

Tobin: "Goodbye!"

Prescott: "Oh, why, did I ever agree to this? Gormlaith neglected to mention to me that this assignment could get me killed! I just want to go home, but I can't until I have at least something to show her!"

You "Gormlaith in Summer's Hollow sent you here?"

Prescott: "Yes. I'm a reporter for the Gazette, but she hasn't been liking my articles on the mating habits of Bog Frogs, and sent me here to write about the lost treasure of Covigne. But she forgot to mention the psychotic bounty hunters who are running around these Marshlands!"

You "The lost treasure of Covigne?"

Prescott: "Yes. It is what makes these marshlands so valuable. It is why all these Swindles are here searching, and why the bounty hunters are after the deed to the land from Queen Zoria."

You "Now we are getting somewhere!"

Prescott: "I want to go home! Oh, please, friend, help me out! If you can find me three interesting facts about Covigne, then I can leave this place! Will you?"

Gained 440k experience!

You "Sure, it's what I happen to be doing anyway."

Prescott: "Oh, thank you! Talk to the scholar named Domo. He is well versed in the lore of this region, and is always collecting data about something or another for his notebook. Just get me three facts of any kind at all about Covigne."
