  1. INTRO                                             You see an old gypsy woman in a shop filled with mystical herbs and spices.                                                                                                                             NAME                                              "I am called Milda."                                                                                                                                                                                    JOB                                               "I am a scholar of the mystic arts. I specialize in HERBS and ARCANE lore,      unlike Leomund below us, who dost specialize in the written spell."                                                     BYE                                               "Fare thee well, master. Seek ye always the magic of the underland!"                                                                                                                                                                                      "My mind runneth deep, yet I fear I know little of this."                                                                                                                                               ARCANE                                            "I specialize in the methods used to contact SPIRITS of those long gone."                                                                                                                               SPIRITS                                           "If thou hast visited below, thou wilt have seen great spirit daemons, the      denizens of the dark PLACES..."                                                                                         PLACES                                            "Yea, master, there was a level that once was populated, several levels below   us, but now it lies in RUINS." She shakes her head sadly at the memory.                                                 RUINS                                             "The terrible Spirit Daemons didst come from nowhere, they didst slay the       residents, and didst destroy their HOMES."                                                                              HOMES                                             "The warriors fought valiantly, but they didst not prevail. The entire level    wast destroyed. But the spirits of the HEROES still roam there."                                                        HEROES                                            "The bodies were never found, thus never buried. Scouts to the lower levels     hath reported some strange SIGHTS, however."                                                                            SIGHTS                                            "It is said that when the magical night dost descend in the dungeon, thou canst see the spirit TOMBS of the heroes, shimmering in the darkness."                                                        TOMBS                                             "It art up to the arcane magics to attempt to COMMUNICATE with them."                                                                                                                                   COMMUNICATE                                       "Yes, master. If thou art virtuous enough, thou may indeed communicate with     the spirit heroes. They may see thy need, and ASSIST thee."                                                             ASSIST                                            "Only from the great beyond canst thou aquire the GOSOMAR silk..."                                                                                                                                      GOSOMAR                                           "It is a sweet herb. Blessed thou art if a spirit hero giveth thee some! For if thou dost eat of it, thou wilt find TWICE thy health restored!"                                                         TWICE                                             "Twice thy current max, that is. The effect wilt last until thee hast used the  energy in battle, or until thou sleepest until the next day. Such is MAGIC."                                            MAGIC                                             "Magic is everywhere. Me? I prefereth to study HERBS and the ARCANE arts."                                                                                                                              HERBS                                             "There art many mystic herbs. Three types canst one likely find in the dungeon: NIGHTSHADE mushrooms, spirit JELLY, and a strange, SILKEN herb."                                                        NIGHTSHADE                                        "Find it near dampness. Not wet, but probably somewhat ABOVE where it is wet."                                                                                                                          ABOVE                                             "It groweth in just the right areas. Thou should seeketh a damp dungeon, then   goeth up a level, where 'tis only damp, not WET."                                                                       WET                                               "Too much water dost rot it. Also, it groweth not near fresh water, but old     water. Remember that! As to WHEN to find?"                                                                              WHEN                                              "Behold, its own name provideth a clue. Nightshade...find it, partake of it,    and it shalt restore thy energy. Thou shouldst keep some in storage, too."                                              JELLY                                             "Ah, the spirit jelly! Find this when shadows rule the dungeon, in the darkest  places. Seek thou water, and thou shalt find it. It art MIGHTY."                                                        MIGHTY                                            "Thy latent energy of mana canst be restored if thou partake of it! Gather ye   all ye canst find. Stock it. Carry some with thee."                                                                     SILKEN                                            "To find the great gosomar silk, thou must know the ARCANE arts."
