Ask about Karlstein.

Quest Text I'm tired of hammering all day.

Summary Karlstein?
Why are you asking me?
You came all the way here
for a petty rumor like that?
......
I have nothing to say about that.
If you're just looking to gossip
visit Bartholomeo NPC Knowledge, the wharf manager.

Summary ......
Who are you?
And what brought you here?
I have nothing to tell you.
You can read about Karlstein in the books, so go ask a bookseller.

Summary Sigh...
Yes, you're right.
Karlstein is dying.
Both of the siblings are.
It's unfortunate, but there's nothing that can be done.
And yet they're still working so hard...
They aren't trying to play hero like the first Karlstein did.
They're just worried that there won't be a Karlstein to help others when they both pass away.
That's why the siblings are trying to find
someone who can replace them and continue their work.

Summary Haha!
Not bad.
Yes, that is the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Karlstein.
All of the Karlsteins wore that cape ever since the first Karlstein.
But that's not all.

Summary Good question. I suggest you visit Clara.
She might be able to help you.
And please stop coming to me from now on.
Wouldn't it be suspicious for a famous adventurer like you
to visit a mere worker like me who does nothing but hammering everyday?
