Description
You have proven yourself time and again, and your resourcefulness seems to rival even that of Kurzen himself. You may be the salvation of our band of rebels...if you can pit yourself against Kurzen and prevail!
He commands his men from deep within the Stockpile. You must enter that cave, brave through his defenders, and face Kurzen and his leaders.
Farewell, your name. My hope, and the fate of my men, go with you.
In progress
Dare I hope that Kurzen and his defenders are dead, your name?
Completion
I dared not believe the reports, but you bring us proof that...Kurzen and his leaders are defeated. You have saved us!
These jungles are filled with menaces of all types, but none had the cruel intellect of Kurzen. We may all breathe easier now that he is gone.
