Your eyes...
Ah, it's you again.
I hope you can join me at the Great Caravan, in fact.
Who knows what wonders there might be to trade?
Wait, what's that?
That burn...
You've inherited the flame of frenzy!
Oh, that's it... That's what I need...
To melt away the curses, suffering, and despair. And the Order, entire.
And I was willing to pay whatever was needed. Your reward, as promised.
I hope you can join me at the Great Caravan, in fact.
Who knows what wonders there might be to trade?
The yellow flame of chaos...
Is that all you were, mate?
I'll never forgive your kind...
I knew you for a highwayman all along.
Then it's time you learnt a lesson.
Our people will not stand for your barbarism!
I see. I see how it is! You were one of them all along!
Trying to trample us underfoot, you grace-given bastard?
Is this...how it ends?
I'll never find...
Your kind...will all be razed clean.
By the frenzied flame...of chaos...
The frenzied flame...burned me...
I was not... a suitable home.
Unknown warrior...
You, who reached the Three Fingers' abyss...
Tell the one... Who will become Lord...
Divest yourself of everything, and head to the door.
Divest yourself of everything...
And pray to the Lord...
To melt away the curses, suffering, and despair. And the Order, entire.
May chaos...take the world.
Wait, weren't you...?
Well, you're back. Care to buy something?
What is it? Still going to purchase something?
Good-bye. Nice to do business.
Good-bye for now.
Oh yes, about the cryptogram from the letter...
I think it's pointing underneath the capital.
I think it's pointing here, underneath the capital.
But I'm perplexed as to the path to take down there.
Well, the journey can wait, I suppose.
Ah, you, is it...
Did you see? What they did to my ancestors?
The whole clan, buried alive. Sick. Maddened. Husks of themselves.
Have you heard their moans? They're hardly human anymore.
They think we worship the Three Fingers? That we called the maddening sickness down upon them?
Well. If that's what they expect from us, then that's what they shall get from us!
The world of grace and its people should have been content to see us sink between the cracks.
But to have intruded upon our solace... Having broken us upon their whims...
I'll never forgive any of you.
I'm sorry, but we won't be trading any longer.
And...I think it's time we parted ways.
Guided by grace, you seek to become Elden Lord.
I don't want anything to do with you Tarnished lot any more.
I should apologise to you.
It's my fault that we stumbled into this mess.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, but we won't be trading any longer.
I think it's time we parted ways.
Oh, that's it... That's what I need...
To melt away the curses, suffering, and despair. And the Order, entire.
The yellow flame of chaos...
O Three Fingers, throw wide the door.
Please, bestow unto me the yellow flame of chaos.
A frenzied flame to melt away the curses, suffering, and despair. And the Order, entire.
May chaos take the world.
May chaos take the world.
What's the matter with you?
Have you gone mad?
Urgh!
So you're just like the others?
Another would-be oppressor to my people.
I suppose I shouldn't keep this from you.
I'm thinking of moving elsewhere for a time.
My people are wanderers all, which I won't deny is one reason...
But I've done all I can here, in search of the Great Caravan.
Ah, by the way...
Have you heard of the Great Caravan?
...I see, more's the pity.
Well, even we had a place to call home, once.
The Great Caravan, they called it… but it's been lost to us for ages.
I've been searching for it as long as I can remember.
And with a name like that,
You'd hope they kept some fine goods there, eh.
Oh, by the way. There's someone you should meet.
If you happen to hear a wolf's howl, make this signal under the source.
I'll settle here for the time being, and start looking into it.
The frenzied flame...burned me...
I was not... a suitable home.
Dear Lord, Lord of Chaos...
Melt away the curses, suffering, and despair. And the Order, entire.
May chaos...take the world.
Are you offering that drink to me?
Oh, no, what do you take me for? I am an honest merchant of good standing!
[pause]
Oh, for heaven's sake, I jest.
That's a very kind gesture, and I accept.
A pleasure as ever, old friend.
