 * Lord Gerald Goodblade: ????????????????

If you are at level 17 or higher, however, he will reply:


 * Lord Gerald Goodblade: Greetings my good ! Step right up and examine this Ancient Draco-Forged Statue of Ultimate Truth!
 * Lord Gerald Goodblade: This is a once in a lifetime chance to bear witness to the wonders of the Outer Planes!
 * You: Ultimate truth, huh? What makes this thing so special?
 * Lord Gerald Goodblade: This ancient artifact can bestow visions..., visions beyond mortal comprehension! -- Ah, but I see the doubt in your face.
 * Lord Gerald Goodblade: I, the grand and famous Lord Gerald Goodbalde, am no fraud!
 * Lord Gerald Goodblade: You, my good, shall have proof of my words. Simply look into the eyes of Goodblade's Artifact, and confront your destiny!
 * You: A vision could be interesting. Very well, I'll try it. (Bestow quest)
 * You: Stare into the Artifact's eyes? All right, this should be worth a laugh. (Bestow quest)
 * You: Do you think me a fool? I have better things to do with my time. (Walk away)
 * You: (Twilight Forge) That's no statue; it's the remains of a Warforged Titan
 * Lord Gerald Goodblade: You don't say?
 * Lord Gerald Goodblade: Well, I've never heard of one of these..., what did you call it? -- Warforged Giant, was it?
 * Lord Gerald Goodblade: No..., no one will pay to see this scrap heap with a name like that. -- I'll stick with Statue of Ultimate Truth, thank you very much.
 * You: Suit yourself. But what makes this thing so special? (see above)

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


 * Lord Gerald Goodblade: Simply stare into the eyes of Goodblade's Artifact, and you shall be granted a vision of darkness!

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


 * Lord Gerald Goodblade: Well, well, you saw, didn't you?
 * Lord Gerald Goodblade: Never say that the great Lord Gerald Goodblade is not a man of his word!
 * You: I saw, all right! -- The Dreaming Dark are on their way to destroy the Stormreaver's artifact...
 * Lord Gerald Goodblade: Dreaming Dark? Stormreaver?
 * Lord Gerald Goodblade: I don't understand..., I never saw any such thing in my vision...
 * You: We have to stop the Dreaming Dark from invading Eberron! -- This Titan was in the vision. -- Tell me, where did you find it?
 * Lord Gerald Goodblade: My, you're serious about this?
 * Lord Gerald Goodblade: If you must know, I found it on safari at the Isle of Forgotten Dreams. Reathbane was my guide; he can take you there, and his boat is docked right here in the Inspired Quarter.

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