    Can we get some lore on Hunberct Longhaft please?

    Or at least some quests about him.

    I find him so damn interesting, easily my favourite NPC in the game.

    Longhaft is one of the protectors and operators of Highbridge, either a Brass Blade or a mercenary. Everything about him is a double entendre that says either he's talented at manning the levers and is very selective about his unit, or just that he's very talented with his unit and very selective about who mans his lever.

    The one in charge of defending Highbridge and possesses a lever not unlike a machine. If you are thinking of giving him another hand, he must disappoint you, another hand on his lever is the last thing he needs.

    Oh man, oh man, oh man.

    Ryihito, you just made my day. I didn't think anyone noticed the Longhaft and his band of trained lever-operators.

    Hunberct is SO getting himself a ballad to be sung by spoony bards across the realm. I'll let you all know when it's done, and if it doesn't make it's way into the game, I'll make sure it's posted RIGHT HERE.

    Au contraire, Ferne! Have a little faith in your little loremongers.

    I have to say I'm also fond of the other unnamed NPCs around Drybone that accuse a pair of fair maidens of infecting him of crotch rot or the one hiding in a nook looking to "dip the wick", if ye keen of course.

    (I also just saw Ryihito's signature text, and just want to add: "nine nine nine nine John Madden John Madden". Hopefully I don't just sound absolutely mad saying that and at least someone gets it >.>)

    aeiou! aeiou! aeiou! uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...

    I was always fond of that quest in the Forgotten Springs where you have to shoo away the people looking at the girls, one of the person's excuse was "Oh I was just looking at this... tree... for science!".

    Longhaft and his ladies were not unnoticed, I assure you. I found them quite amusing and endearing, and would certainly enjoy hearing more about them!
