Ishaq:"I know why you are here. Your nemesis awaits you. He has waited a long time." Crane:"Sounds like you've met him." Ishaq:"He once sought my visions for his advantage, but I will not share my gift with such a man as him. With you, I will." Crane:"How much will that cost?" Ishaq:"The price will be high, but your payment will not be to me. Now you will go to the river. There is a pungent nightshade that reveals itself only in the moonlight. The smolder of its embers enables the seeker to pierce the veil." Crane:"All out, are we?" Ishaq:"Bring me several stalks of this plant." Crane:"Maybe I will... But in the meantime you should shut off the music. It draw attention." Ishaq:"Nothing enters that I do not wish. Now I must prepare my mind."

After obtaining the plants:
— Ishaq:"You are here because you are welcome." Crane:"Your herbs." Ishaq:"Place the stalks in the brazier and we will begin."
Crane:"Now what happens?" Ishaq:"Speak no more. The rising sun will lead you to the fountain of crying blood... ...near the place where people are speaking tongues... You must follow the red trail... to be enlightened... ...under the deceitful number 9... The shadow of a self-proclaimed king will be waiting for you... ...the king, with whom you shall have to fight. You'll find out who he is and what his weaknesses are. When the time comes, you will take his crown or die."
