    GC Quest, "Burning Man" -- Text -- Urianger's Awkward Continuation

    When the player is in the Ferry Docks in Ul'dah, is progressing through the GC quest "Burning Man", and speaks to Urianger without first speaking to Thancred, the following text appears:

    "
    Urianger: Too oft hath man been
    brought low by chains of his
    own making. Too oft hath
    sorrow quickened anguish,
    anguish nurtured anger, and
    anger given birth to hatred.
    Thence have eyes grown dull,
    and hearts been twisted into
    things most vile.
    "

    However, when the player speaks to Thancred and is then directed toward Urianger, the following text appears:

    "
    Urianger: Yet to what end? Who
    were these souls? What hath
    warped their hearts that they
    should despise thee so? And what
    of thee? What hath made thee
    take up arms against them?
    "

    This is incorrect because this second text can appear without the player first speaking to Urianger. This makes this line read terribly awkwardly, as it is unclear what "Yet to what end?" is in response to. Even if the player speaks to Urianger beforehand, the player should have just spoken with Thancred and forgotten what Urianger said.

    Please fix this issue by adding a line to the beginning of Urianger's second text string. This would allow the player to skip Urianger's "unnecessary" text that appears if he is spoken to before speaking to Thancred. This will allow Urianger's text to read normally, but still continue his thoughts from the first text string.

    The corrected text for Urianger's second text string might read as follows:

    "
    Urianger: Man's ability to so
    quickly descend into such
    madness has indeed been
    well chronicled. Yet to what
    end? Who were these souls?
    What hath warped their hearts
    that they should despise thee
    so? And what of thee? What
    hath made thee take up arms
    against them?
    "

    Thanks for the find, Merm. Added a bit of text to try and smooth it out. Change will go live in a future patch.
