"Unless the Old King is some sort of immortal horrible and malignant force, speak of him is no reason to be afraid. This sounds like the result of poorly-kept records being twisted into vague legends." Arolith tries to suppress his annoyance as he begins to flip the coin on the table, trying to make the third side appear. "Can you ask Velg and Varg to exhume the records they buried? This stranger has some connection to the Old King, even if it's something as loose as retracing a path through locations with significance to the name. We need a lead to go on, and superstition shouldn't be a valid reason to impede finding it."
