[Wed Aug 10 07:31:34 2022] You say, 'Hail, Normon Stonetooth'
[Wed Aug 10 07:31:35 2022] Normon Stonetooth seems to ignore your greeting, peering at the stone in front of him intently as if reading some invisible text. After a long while he sighs deeply and says, 'Somethin I kin help ye with, whoever you are?'
[Wed Aug 10 07:31:38 2022] You say, 'Who are you?'
[Wed Aug 10 07:31:39 2022] Normon Stonetooth speaks as he continues staring at the stone, 'I mine. So they call me a miner. Name's Normon, Normon Stonetooth, Normon the miner... Did I say I mine?'
[Wed Aug 10 07:31:59 2022] You say, 'What do you mine?'
[Wed Aug 10 07:32:00 2022] Normon Stonetooth says, 'Well I look fer velium o'course. But ye know, I pull very little of it out o the mundane rock these days. Sometimes I hear it whisperin' to me. The stone, the velium, everything down here talks to each other. If ye're lucky enough they tell ya secrets. That be why I listen more these days than pull velium.'
[Wed Aug 10 07:32:11 2022] You say, 'What secrets?'
[Wed Aug 10 07:32:12 2022] Normon Stonetooth snickers and says, 'Now, if'n I told ye then it wouldn't be a secret no more, would it? No, I can't tell ya what they tells me, but I kin help ya ta listen. But first ye'll need ta do me a favor heheh.'
[Wed Aug 10 07:32:23 2022] You say, 'What favor?'
[Wed Aug 10 07:32:23 2022] Normon Stonetooth says, 'Ahh, well me pick is a bit dull, don't cut like it should. Up in the city proper ye kin find a weapons smith named Hakon. Take me pick axe and and tell him Stonetooth sent ye. Then give it to him, wait fer him ta sharpen it, an bring it back to me. Then I'll help ya ta listen to the stone.'

[Wed Aug 10 07:35:48 2022] You say, 'Hail, Hakon Brightsteel'
[Wed Aug 10 07:35:56 2022] You say, 'Stonetooth sent me'
[Wed Aug 10 07:35:56 2022] Hakon Brightsteel says, 'You spoke with old Stonetooth? Eeegads man! No one talks to 'im. Legend says he spent so much time down there that he eats nothin' but rocks now and drinks melted velium. Well I guess I should sharpen his axe, but I'll need some velium ore to repair it some. Bring me a chunk o' Velium Ore along with his axe and I'll get to work.'

[Wed Aug 10 07:37:16 2022] Hakon Brightsteel says, 'Hey, I can't start me work without both Stonetooth's axe and the small piece of Velium. Get to it, lad!'
[Wed Aug 10 07:37:16 2022] Hakon Brightsteel says, 'Excellent! I'll get ta work now.' Hakon whistles an unfamiliar tune as he repairs and sharpens the pick axe. 'Here ye are, Thanien. Watch that old Stonetooth, he's a few steins short of a keg, if ye know what I mean.''

[Wed Aug 10 07:39:19 2022] You offered 1 Normon's Axe to Normon Stonetooth.
[Wed Aug 10 07:39:22 2022] Normon Stonetooth says, 'Ahhhh, good work, Thanien. Now ta speak with the stone ye need somethin' ta focus on. Use this piece o' velium as yer focus. Ta speak the language o' the stone ye need ta slow down like the stone. Rock looks like it don't move but it does, just real slow. So place yer focus on the stones ye wish ta speak with and get yerself real slow, both yer body an' yer noggin. Then if yer quiet enough ye might hear 'em. An' that's what's to it.'

[Wed Aug 10 07:44:38 2022] You say, 'Hail, Phenocryst'
[Wed Aug 10 07:44:39 2022] Phenocryst speaks with a soundless voice, as if you are hearing your own thoughts. 'We sense you are attempting communication with us but do not understand what it is you are trying to convey. We are eager to know more. Perhaps there is one who knows the language of the stone and will speak with us.'
[Wed Aug 10 07:44:45 2022] You offered 1 Velium Focus to Phenocryst.
[Wed Aug 10 07:44:48 2022] Phenocryst speaks to you from within your mind, 'You know the stone! This is wonderful! The fullfillment of the prophecy is now one step closer. The most ancient of the stones tells us that one not of stone will come forth and act as our harbinger of ascension. We believe you to be our harbinger. Please help us!'

[Wed Aug 10 07:44:59 2022] Phenocryst speaks from within your mind as well as conveys a sense of joy empathetically, 'It is said that the harbinger will find all of our people and unite them. When we join we will know all of our experiences and perhaps then be aware of how to proceed with the next step in our ascension. We implore you to find others like us and make them aware of us. You know the language of the stone and can tell them. We await your return with proof that you have spoken to them'

[Wed Aug 10 08:16:29 2022] You say, 'Hail, a focus gem'
[Wed Aug 10 08:16:34 2022] You offered 1 Velium Focus to a focus gem.
[Wed Aug 10 08:16:35 2022] A focus gem seems as if it doesn't recognize you as anything of importance. You attempt to speak with the Geonid through your Velium Focus but all you are able to hear is the same though over and over..,Eat. You have gained no knowledge from these creatures but you notice your focus has been altered slightly.

[Wed Aug 10 08:26:42 2022] Phenocryst speaks with a soundless voice. It is as if you are hearing your own thoughts, 'We see that you are trying to communicate with us but because of your violent and impatient nature you would never be able to understand us.'
[Wed Aug 10 08:26:42 2022] You complete the trade with Phenocryst.
Phenocryst did NOT accept my turn in at 2 points below Amiable, you must need Amiable to be able to proceed from here. I might post the rest eventually.
