To the Shrine! talk_p_proc->Node010 Node011 So, you've returned. Well, I had you removed once and I can have you removed again. Guards! To the Shrine! The trash is back! talk_p_proc->Node011 Node001 Welcome, traveler. I am called Gordon, and I am the Shrine Keeper. What can I help you with? --- It's a pleasure to meet you, Gordon. I'm --- . Can I ask you some questions? talk_p_proc->Node001 Node012 Hello again. What can I do for you? talk_p_proc->Node012 Node999 Node001->Node999 Uh... not remember. Bye. Node001->Node999 Well, sorry to have disturbed you. I'll be going now. Node002 Yes. A shrine is a place of worship that is usually dedicated to a god, a saint, or other being of power. Node001->Node002 Shrine? Node003 Certainly you may. --- What would you like to know? Node001->Node003 Me ask questions? Node009 You are a rude and verbally abusive individual. Perhaps if one of the guards were present with us, you would curb your tongue. --- I warned you earlier that I would not tolerate your abuse. Obviously you have chosen to ignore that warning. (Gordon looks towards the door) Guards! To the Shrine, please! --- So you still choose to be an ass. (Gordon motions toward the deathclaw guard) Guard, please take out the trash. Node001->Node009 You call this a shrine? Whoever it's dedicated to must be turning in their grave! Node012->Node999 Me been here before? Sorry. Got go. Node012->Node999 Just saying hello. Node012->Node003 Ask question? Node012->Node003 I wanted to talk with you once again. destroy_p_proc look_at_p_proc You see a lean man in long robes.  He appears to be in deep thought. --- You see the Shrine Keeper. description_p_proc You see a lean man in long robes.  He is in his late forties, and his features are soft and unweathered.

Node005a Node003->Node005a How long you here? Node003->Node005a How long have you been here? Node007a Node003->Node007a D'claws bad? Node003->Node007a What can you tell me about the deathclaws? Node008a Node003->Node008a Why you stay? Node003->Node008a Why do you stay here? Node009->Node998 Bring on your stooge! I can kick both your asses in the wink of an eye. Node009->Node998 I've been looking forward to doing some lizard plinking! Node009->Node003 Sorry, I'll curb my tongue. Node009->Node003 My apologies to you, Gordon. Please forgive my outburst. Node009->Node003 I'm sorry. I forgot myself. Please forgive me. Node009->Node003 Ooops, sorry. Node004 This shrine is dedicated to an unnamed hero known only as the Vault Dweller. He, or she, was the savior of all who lived here several decades ago. We do not know what became of our savior, but he, or she, lives on in our minds and hearts. Node004a->Node004 Node005 I have lived all my life here in this vault. I have been a Shrine Keeper for most of those years. Node005a->Node005 Node007 I have lived with the deathclaws for several months now. They seem to be honorable and forthright in their dealings with me and the other humans who live here. I trust them and, in time, I think you will as well. Node007a->Node007 Node008 My place is here at the Shrine. I will not leave it willingly. Node008a->Node008 Node004->Node999 Me thank you. Wavy. Node004->Node003 That nice. Node004->Node003 I see. Well, I have other questions. Node004->Node003 Very comendable, Gordon. Can I ask you some more questions? Node004->Node009 What a joke! A shrine to someone you can't even remember! Node005->Node999 Got go now. Node005->Node003 Ah. Need know more. Node005->Node003 You are a very dedicated man. May I ask you some more questions? Node005->Node003 That's a long time. Can you answer some more questions? Node005->Node009 It's your life to waste as you see fit, bud. Node006 No, my friend, I was not. I left a few months ago to visit the statue of the Vault Dweller erected in the central court of the NCR (the New California Republic east of here). When I returned to the vault, I found the deathclaws were already here. Needless to say, I was in shock. However, I am convinced that they are not responsible for what happened to my fellow citizens. If, by chance, you want more information on this matter, you can seek out Goris in the library. Node005->Node006 You here before D'claws? Node005->Node006 Then you were here when the deathclaws took over? Node006->Node999 Okay, bye. Node006->Node003 Okay, thanks. Node006->Node003 I'll keep this in mind. Node006->Node003 Thank you for your help. I have more questions, though. Node006->Node009 I don't need you telling me where to go or who to see. Node007->Node999 Humph. Me go now. Node007->Node003 Uh... Okay. Node007->Node003 I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt for now. Node007->Node003 Thank you. I need to know more. Node007->Node009 You can trust the lizards if you want to, but I'll reserve my opinion for now, thank you. Node008->Node999 Me leave you now. Node008->Node003 Ah. Node008->Node003 OK. Node008->Node003 Your dedication is admirable. Node008->Node009 You are either dedicated or a dumbass. I vote for dumbass!
