'Byre Tor should be located north of here, along the road. We will see what has happened to the city before seeking out Nona in the cave she mentioned.'1/1

10 Speak toNona (Show dialog)
'My friends... I am glad to see you, really I am. But I just cannot... I cannot leave these people. I found them dying in the snow, and I brought them here, but they have not yet recovered. I will not abandon them now.'
Nona lowers her voice and speaks privately to you and Horn.
'I rescued four folk from that city, and while three of them are now doing much better, I fear the fourth may succumb. Speak to them, if they will speak to you, and there may be something you can do to ease their recoveries.
'I am glad to see you, Player, and... and Horn. I just...'
Nona trails off and will speak no more for now.1/1
11.1) Speak toElda (Show dialog)
'You... you are a friend of Nona, then? She... is a remarkable girl. I did not know the Dunlendings had... the capacity for kindness.'
He coughs weakly.
'My name is Elda, and when the Orcs came to my city... I picked up sword and shield and thought... to fight. But a great piece of masonry crumbled... not two yards from where I stood, and...'
Elda shudders with the memory.
'I awoke in this cave. I think the Orcs thought... thought I was dead. I am fortunate... Nona found me... or I would be dead.'1/1
11.2) Speak toYmma (Show dialog)
'My name is Ymma. Any friend of Nona's is a friend of mine, and a friend of my family's, though most of them be dead. The city had no chance. The Orcs climbed the stony cliffs around Byre Tor under cover of the night, and by morning the unnatural snows had come. We could fight against Orcs, even such Orcs as these, but there was more: a great shadow in the darkness!'
Ymma shivers at the memory.
'I will know forever the names of the Orcs that slaughtered my friends and my family as they ran, Player. One day when I am recovered I will hunt them down and show them what their attack on Byre Tor has cost them: their future days.'1/1
11.3) Speak toLéodwig (Show dialog)
This man is close to death and his sightless eyes cannot focus on you. You wonder what it is he is seeing, and hope he soon will find peace from it.1/1
11.4) Speak toElfgifu (Show dialog)
'I am Elfgifu, friend of Nona. I saw to the horses of Byre Tor, Player, and it was their panic that saved me. I was given warning enough of the Orc attack that I was partway down the hill when the giant... when the giant...'
Elfgifu trails off, visibly upset by the memory.
'All of us owe our lives to Nona. I never thought I would owe such a debt to a Dunlending! But there it is. Elda, Ymma, and I would be dead were it not for her ministrations. I do not know the name of the other man she saved; I do not recognize him. He may not be from Byre Tor. This may be heartless, but I fear he will die before I learn his name. That is a sad truth indeed!'1/1
12 Speak toNona (Show dialog)
'Do you see now why I cannot abandon these people, Player? I have to know they are safe. I have been speaking with Horn, and he... he understands.'
Nona turns the full force of her scowl upon Horn, who seems to have lost his voice temporarily. 'He understands,' she continues.
'Thank you all for the root vegetables, also! I will see if that will help spur the recovery of those in my care. I fear it will not be enough for the dying man in my care.'1/1
