About the portal...
KeeperDo you know anything about the magic portal?
LarryNorth of town. Granted wishes. Never ended well.
KeeperSo... is it still there?
LarryAccording to the Inquisitors' notes I found... no. It's not.
LarryIt vanished from the hill, right before the undead outbreak.
LarryNobody really knows what happened in the North after that.
KeeperAlright... next question. Whose soul could be bound to it?
LarrySard... how should I know?
KeeperThe Goddess said it could be someone a little strange...
KeeperObsessed with symbols...
LarryHey, what about our comrade, the donkey?
KeeperNah... donkeys don't have souls.
LarryI thought that was redheads...
KeeperHey, speaking of redheads... our astrologer fits that description.
KeeperHe has symbols all over his floor.
KeeperI should pay him a visit...
KeeperThanks, Larry... what would I do without you?
LarryYep... that's me. A very helpful skull.
KeeperI need to know everything you have about the magic portal.
GunterOh no... no, no...
KeeperFor someone who knows so much... you sure never learn from your mistakes.
KeeperSo, the magic portal... do you know where it is?
GunterIt's happening again... just like last time...
GunterI was just a side character, and I still got into a lot of trouble...
GunterTell me... where do we stand with each other?
KeeperWhat do you mean?
GunterOn a scale from 0 to 100, how close are we, really?
KeeperHm... maybe around 50.
GunterFigures... Sard, when you showed up I knew this would end badly.
KeeperFocus. Where's the portal, and how do I use it?
KeeperYou knew someone who looked like me... you must know something.
GunterYes, but I stayed out of his whole portal business.
GunterLike I said, I was just a side character.
GunterBut I do know the man who activated the portal with you... I mean him.
GunterHe knows where it is. Probably how it works, too.
GunterIf he does, he's the only one.
KeeperWhere can I find him?
GunterLast time I saw him, he was in the underground foundry beneath the old bathhouse.
KeeperI'm not local... where can I find this bathhouse?
GunterNorth side of town.
KeeperSo... just need to get past the zombie horde?
GunterYes. But there's a shortcut... the foundry's water tunnel.
GunterThe entrance isn't far from here, near the navigation lock.
KeeperAnd how does an astrologer know about that?
GunterMy best friend Jack told me about it.
GunterHe used to maintain the lock and the tunnel.
KeeperSo I go to the foundry to meet — a blacksmith?
GunterNot a blacksmith. A bishop. Well... now a monk.
KeeperSo... through the tunnel, into the foundry under the bathhouse, and meet a monk.
GunterPrecisely.
KeeperLucky for you... I'm already working on that.
KeeperIs it far? How do we get there?
KeeperI'll bring you some samples, and you can check the quality.
JackThat would be great.
JackJust great... meanwhile, I still have 25 years of work ahead of me...
JackIt's on the north side of the town.
JackThe only way to reach it is through a water tunnel.
JackLuckily, I know all about it.
Ask about the portal.
