Dirge of Karrnath

House Kundarak Enclave
If you try to talk to him while at level 4 or lower, he will reply:


 * Dirge of Karrnath: Why are you here, pup? The fights in the Tharashk Arena are much too tough for you.

If you are at level 5 or higher, however, he will reply:


 * Dirge of Karrnath: This is discrimination! Why can't a Human compete in the Tharashk Arena!?!
 * You: I'm sorry about your bugbear problems, but I'm here on behalf of Marek Malcanus. He wants you to return to the Laughing Knives.
 * Dirge of Karrnath: You don't understand. I've finally found a weapon to replace the one that broke in the Vault of Night! It's the grand prize here in Tharashk Arena.
 * Dirge of Karrnath: But they won't let me compete... and without a weapon, I can't just fight my way in.
 * Dirge of Karrnath: Say... maybe you can win the Oath of Droaam for me? The bugbears won't be any happier to see you, but at least YOU can smack them around until they let you compete. I've got a Drow friend in there too, Myr'dril, who could help you.
 * Dirge of Karrnath: I'll join Marek as soon as I have the axe in my hands! The Tharashk Arena entrance is just in front over there.
 * You: All right, I'll do it to get you back with the Laughing Knives. (Bestow quest)
 * Dirge of Karrnath: Outstanding! The roar of the crowd, the blood of your fallen foes... I envy you!
 * You: No, find some other dope to get your axe. (Walk away)

Talking to him after acquiring the quest, but before completion, will make he say:


 * Dirge of Karrnath: You should go in the Tharashk Arena and 'convince' the bugbears to let you compete.

On completion of quest, he will congratulate you with the following:


 * Dirge of Karrnath: Har, ha-ha-ha! I snuck in and saw the whole thing. Good show, good show—I especially like how you gutted their champion!
 * Dirge of Karrnath: Now, if you'll give me the Oath of Droaam... there it is, my new axe!
 * Dirge of Karrnath: Tell Marek Malcanus he can count on my strong arm at his side!

After completing the quest and taking the reward, if you talk to him again, he will reply:


 * Dirge of Karrnath: When my old weapon broke in the Vault of Night, I though i'd never find another one as powerful.
 * Dirge of Karrnath: But then you brought the Oath of Droaam to me... I'll rejoin the Laughing Knives, and this time nothing will stand up to my axe!
