照看著生活在Halamshiral的精靈們。
幾乎沒有人意識到他們無處不在。仆人擦著地板,侍者倒著酒水,園丁除著雜草,傭人們打扮著貴族。哪怕任何一個房間、角落、小巷都有他們的身影。他們是有組織的,他們正看著我們。
一些謠言稱有某些幕后操縱者在領導著這些精靈,這并非謠言。我有報告稱這位“Briala”曾是Celene女王的私人間諜和刺客,是位技術非凡的吟游詩人。現在她在為誰工作我們無法證實。
什么都別說。他們正聽著你呢……

英文原文:
Briala?
Watch out for elves in Halamshiral.
Almost no one notices they're even present. A servant scrubbing floors. A waiter filling glasses. Undergardeners weeding the border. Maids and valets dressing nobles. There's no room, alcove, or alley so private you can't find one there. And they're watching. They're organized.
The rumor you've heard of some mastermind leading the elves is no rumor. I have reports that this "Briala" was Celene's personal spy and assassin, a bard of unusual skill. Who she's working for now we cannot confirm.
Say nothing. They will hear you.?
