Before The Seal of Shan-To-Kor is bestowed:

• Wayfinder Dael: You... you look like a competent <class>. How would you like to do a job for the Wayfinder Foundation?
  • You: Yes, I'm looking for freelance work.
    • Wayfinder Dael: Have you heard of the Seal of Shan-To-Kor? I'm convinced that it's hidden deep below the Steam Tunnels. Someone must retrieve it!
    • Wayfinder Dael: From in there, you will need to breach the Kobolds' Barricade, fighting your way deep underground.
    • Wayfinder Dael: That will take you to the Caverns of Shaag, home of Cloven-Jaw Hobgoblins. Their leader knows where the Seal of Shan-To-Kor is -- defeat him and retrieve it!
      • You: Very well, I'll help you recover the Seal of Shan-To-Kor. (The Seal of Shan-To-Kor bestowed)
        • Wayfinder Dael: You have a long road ahead, but start by finding the Kobolds' Barricade inside the Steam Tunnels over here.
      • You: Why is this seal so important?
        • Wayfinder Dael: The Seal of Shan-To-Kor was used by the rulers of the ancient Giant empire, a token of Giantish loyalty and might.
        • Wayfinder Dael: It is of no use to a <race> such as yourself, but to the Giants, it is a powerful symbol of their birthright. It is capable of uniting all the Giant clans into an unstoppable new empire.
        • Wayfinder Dael: And... the Cloven-Jaw Hobgoblins know where the seal is -- they're planning on selling it to the Giants! That is why someone must go in the Steam Tunnels to take the Seal.
          • You: Very well, I'll help you recover the Seal of Shan-To-Kor. (The Seal of Shan-To-Kor bestowed)
            • Wayfinder Dael: You have a long road ahead, but start by finding the Kobolds' Barricade inside the Steam Tunnels over here.
          • You: What can I expect to find in the Steam Tunnels? (see below)
      • You: What can I expect to find in the Steam Tunnels?
        • Wayfinder Dael: Kobolds... lots of kobolds -- they're utterly afraid of the Cloven-Jaw Hobgoblins and have erected a barricade against them.
        • Wayfinder Dael: But it's the Hobgoblins you need to reach, so you'll need to get past the barricade.
        • Wayfinder Dael: That's as far as I went before I had to withdraw. I left you some pictograms to lead you in the right direction, so keep an eye out.
          • You: Very well, I'll help you recover the Seal of Shan-To-Kor. (The Seal of Shan-To-Kor bestowed)
            • Wayfinder Dael: You have a long road ahead, but start by finding the Kobolds' Barricade inside the Steam Tunnels over here.
          • You: I'd like to know more about this Seal of Shan-To-Kor. (see "Why is this seal..." above)
      • You: I hope you find someone to help you, but I'm not that person. (Ends Conversation)
  • You: No, I'm not interested in a job right now. (Ends Conversation)

After The Seal of Shan-To-Kor is bestowed but before completion:

• Wayfinder Dael: When you enter the Steam Tunnels, you must find the Kobolds' Barricade and fight through it.
• Wayfinder Dael: Then you will arrive at the Caverns of Shaag. The hobgoblin hetman there will know how to find the Seal of Shan-To-Kor.
• Wayfinder Dael: Please, you must retrieve it!
  • You: I'd like to know more about this Seal of Shan-To-Kor. (see "Why is this seal..." above)
  • You: What can I expect to find in the Steam Tunnels? (see above)

After you recover the seal, she will reply:

• Wayfinder Dael: This... this is the true Seal of Shan-To-Kor!
• Wayfinder Dael: Without it, the Hobgoblins will not be able to buy the Giants' allegiance, nor will it inspire the Giants clans to reconquer their ancient empire here in Xen'drik.
• Wayfinder Dael: The Seal will be transported to Sharn, where the Giants will never find it. You have changed the course of history this day!

After you complete the quest, she will say:

• Wayfinder Dael: The Seal of Shan-To-Kor might have rallied the Giantish clans together—not to mention allying them with the Hobgoblins.
• Wayfinder Dael: But thanks to you, the Seal is safely hidden in Wayfinder hands now. You have earned my regard.

Driftwood Mire

After you destroy the crystal that keep her locked with the kobold treasure, she will say:

• Dael: By the Host, am I glad to see you! I can finally leave this Kobold infested swamp—what with all their attention on you.
• Dael: But before I go, you should know how they got so powerful... they have the backing of a Dragon!
• Dael: It's really just a youngling—the mother's away at the monent. If you can find its lair in this swamp, you won't get a better opportunity to strike.
  • You: Say, you look familiar...
    • Dael: Have you ever been to Stormreach's Marketplace? Perhaps that's where we crossed paths.
      • You: Why yes, I've spent quite a bit of time in Stormreach.
        • Dael: Hey, I recognise you! You helped me retrieve the Seal of Shan-to-kor!
      • You: No, I've never been to Stormreach.
        • Dael: That's good—it's full of do-gooder morons.
        • Dael: I remember this time when I duped this adventurer into thinking I was a Wayfinder... can you imagine, me, a Wayfinder? Ha, ha!
        • Dael: I got the fool to retrieve a valuable artifact for me. If only Sorjek hadn't cheated me out of my fee—cheap skate took the seal and knocked me off his mountain!
        • Dael: Anyway, I should get out of here.
          • You: Whatever. You look after your own hide—I'll go deal with the Dragon.
            • Dael: I have an old invisibility trick that should let me take it from here. Thanks for your help!
      • You: All right, head for safety. I'll deal with the dragon.
        • Dael: ??????????????????
  • You: All right, head for safety. I'll deal with the dragon.
    • Dael: ??????????????????
