Dialogue
Accepting the Quest
Ceana: <sigh> Fine, fine! I fail to see the justification for dragging me along on your journey, but if you insist, I will go as well. Ceana: But Twelve as my witness, if you leave me behind to be devoured by some horrid abomination, I...I shall come back to haunt you!
Speaking with the ferry skipper
Ferry Skipper: Hah! “Take me to the Isles of Umbra,” he/she bids! As if it's as simple as─ Oh, I see you've got a writ of passage. All right, then, climb aboard.
Speaking with Ceana
Ceana: Th-Th-This doesn't seem all that bad... Ceana: I'm not saying I'd like to build a summer home here, but─ Oh, the hells with this. Here, take your pot and go on without me. Ceana: You've harvested corrupted crystals before, right? So it isn't as though you require my assistance. Speak to the man guarding the gate─I'm sure he'll let you in. Now, if you would please excuse me...
If leave and return (optional)
Ferry Skipper: Hah! “Take me back to the Isles of Umbra,” he/she jests! As if anyone would ever want to─ Oh, I see you're serious. All right, then, climb aboard.
Ceana: You awful, awful man/woman! I explicitly told you not to abandon me! Ceana: And you even have the audacity to request that I accompany you again!? <sigh> Very well─but do not think I will forget this, [Forename]!
Showing the warded pot to Davyd
Davyd: Beg your pardon, sir/madam, but how did you come here? Access to this island is currently restricted... <Hand Over Warded Pot> Davyd: An old pot? I'm not sure I follow. ...Oh, I see. You wish to harvest a corrupted crystal. Sorry, friend, but you may have to return empty-handed.
