Dialogue option	Dialogue text
Crafting	A Karui warrior must die in battle if he is to earn his seat at the table of the Ancestors. It has been that way since the Dawn of Karui. It will be that way until the Dusk. Yet, there is more than one way to skin a seal. The spirits you bring me, I return to the battlefield. Armour and spirit bound together, in the service of the Father of War, Tukohama. The Ancestors know this, respect this. They welcome a fallen spirit as they welcome the dying man. That is the Karui Way.
The Karui Way	The Ancestors possess the knowledge of all Karui. Every man and woman who has followed the Way has carved their life's wisdom into the meeting house of the Remembered. Yet the Ancestors cannot tell me how Kitava's tyranny might end. Only that it will, if we who still can, stand against Him. It is in this hope that I choose to live. Hope is my fortress, and from it I wage war against Kitava's slaves. Yet I am but one warrior, one man who chooses to serve the Karui Way. Perhaps, there will be others. Perhaps... even you.
Kaom	The stories of Kaom that we were raised on... they are lies. I have read Lavianga's carvings, pored over the remains of Kaom's 'promised kingdom' out there on the coast. We were led to believe that Kaom was the greatest of our warriors, that he died serving the Karui Way. The truth is there for any to see. Kitava, God of Corruption, consumed Kaom from heart to skin. Kaom became the greatest of Kitava's slaves when he abandoned his people to serve himself.
Kitava	It is Kitava who rules this place. His Black Spirit is everywhere, in the claws that draw our blood, in the minds of those men and women who... would eat of our flesh. At first I thought it was Kaom who led the God of Corruption to this land. No. Kitava was already here, and he remains here still. A cannibal, feasting on the corpse of Wraeclast. He awaits us all, growing fat in the darkness of Wraeclast's blackened heart.
The Karui and Wraeclast	We Karui have a responsibility, a debt that we need to repay. Though the signs led me to believe that it was the Eternals who invited Kitava into Wraeclast, we Karui had a hand in humanity's downfall here. Had Kaom not formed his alliance with High Templar Voll, and destroyed Lioneye as he did, subsequent events may have played out very differently. So we must right the wrongs of our past, and wake this land from Kitava's nightmare. Only then will the debt be repaid.
Vorici, Master Assassin	An army is needed to win a battle. To win a war? Sometimes it takes only a man... like Vorici.
Tora, Master of the Hunt	A warrior protects life, but it is the huntress who provides it. This land will never prosper without women like Tora.
Catarina, Master of the Dead	Catarina is Kitava's slave, preparing pretty feasts for a cannibal God.
Zana, Master Cartographer	Navigation and conquest are two sides of the same paddle. Every army needs a Zana.
Elreon, Loremaster	There is a fine line between Belief and Madness. Elreon does not even know where that line is.
Vagan, Weaponmaster	Whether he clads it in silk or steel, Vagan's heart is still that of a warrior.
Before claiming Haku's hideout	The seed is nothing to look at while it lies in your palm. That is why Tawhoa, Father of the Forest, gave us the power to dream.
On reaching level 4	Were you and I now in my homeland of Ngamakanui, I would mark your skin with the honour of Ngamahu, Mother of Fire. It is she who lights the fire in the belly of the warrior, and it is your duty to nurture that fire, to fuel it with the timber of battle until it burns so brightly, that it blinds the eyes of your enemies and sears their fearful hearts.
On reaching level 5	It has come time to offer you a warning, for you have entered the most dangerous leg of your journey as a warrior. Had I the tools at hand, I would carve the mark of Kitava, Father of Chaos, into your flesh. You now wield the twin-bladed axe that is Life and Death, a weapon capable of both honour and disgrace. You have the power now to extend the borders of your kingdom and I urge you to do so. For small places breed small thoughts, and it is in those tiny, shadowed recesses of the mind that Kitava will make his home.
On reaching level 6	You are as quick and as deadly as the lightning bolt, as proud as thunder, and as potent as the towering wave. For your deeds on the battlefield, I would paint your body with the mark of Valako, Father of the Storm.
On reaching level 7	You flow through battle, carving a path through the seemingly unbreakable enemy, just as the river carves its path through the ancient stone. Yet, when needed, you stand as hard and resolute as the glacier, pushing forward inch by inch, crushing all before them. In Ngamakanui, I would honour you with the mark of Tasalio, Father of Water. I look around in shame, for this stronghold no longer does you justice. Yours should no longer be the seat of a warrior. Yours should be the seat of a Chief!
On reaching level 8	Tukohama has blessed you, warrior, made you his brother in blood and spirit. I can see it now in your eyes, your stature, your presence. I would carve into your visage the marks of Blood, the greatest honour the Karui can bestow. For you, the path of the warrior has come to an end. The time has come for you to lead, to forge a new path, so that all that come after may learn and prosper from your example.
