"[first meeting, at the Great Shaft near the Cleft, leading to D'ni] You have seen Yeesha. She was, I'm sure, not very hospitable. You're confused, no doubt. My name is Esher. It is my pleasure to meet you. She has given you the quest... yes, the quest. The quest to carry the Four, the quest to release the Tablet, the quest that is proving to be more difficult than she anticipated. Many have taken the quest, and the Tablet still has no master. I will tell you what she will not. I will help you, when she will not. But she and I agree on this point: do not give her the Tablet. She has lied to you already, uttered words that bite her heart as they leave her lips...for she wants that Tablet more than anything! She desires what she can no longer feel, but once tasted. You must not, whatever happens, give it to her. Ah... she is the desert bird that longs to fly. She has dreams of taking flight in her ambiguous world, filled with vague clouds and shadowed air. Careful... she is a clever one. I'm sorry, I'm overwhelming you. [chuckles] Look for the hole in the ground. That's where your journey begins. I will find you."
