Dialog
Lord Arphaun : You're back. Good.
Lord Arphaun : We must discuss Truth, hm?
Lord Arphaun : I'm afraid my research into the Sage has uncovered little.
Lord Arphaun : But for one obscure reference in a tattered scroll, I'd have counted her appearance a total loss.
Lord Arphaun : The passage is cryptic and archaic.
Lord Arphaun : The rough translation reads: "Want of knowledge births quest. Midnight's Oracle records all. A mockery of wisdom - a tainted sage. In Hell it waits to teach."
Lord Arphaun : There's little else, and most of it incoherent.
Lord Arphaun : Nevertheless, I believe this 'Oracle' to be a perversion of the Sage you encountered - an ancient Demonic tome, the contents of which must slander 'Truth' with unholy gospel.
Lord Arphaun : But a clue is still a clue, hm?
Lord Arphaun : If entire galaxies have succumbed to the Burn as the Sage claims, then the Truth cannot be unkown to the Demon.
Lord Arphaun : Surely the Beast would have tried to consume it.
Lord Arphaun : Failing that, Hell may have created it's own record of Truth.
Lord Arphaun : This "Oracle" is what we must now find.
Lord Arphaun : "In Hell it waits to teach..." On that I have sent all under my command to Rifts identified by the far sight you procured.
Lord Arphaun : You've some role to play in this, <playername>.
Lord Arphaun : You're bound to Truth and so must also seek it.
Lord Arphaun : Begin with the Rifts in Picadilly Circus.
Lord Arphaun : Do your best.
Lord Arphaun : For once in 20 years I feel we're finally moving forward.
Lord Arphaun : But to what, hm?
Lord Arphaun : Something great, I hope.
