Lakene

"I'm what everyone likes to refer to as Mr. Fix-it. I'm cursed by it actually. Oh... and by the way... if you see a man named Trithik, tell him I'll get to his boat when I have time. And as for what keeps me in Stros M'Kai, with the Empire and Richton and all... well, I've lived here a long time, got friends and roots here -- And Stros M'Kai has deep roots... ancient history... there's the real mystery."

Dialogue[]

Hi. Cyrus. And you are? "Lakene. You're new here aren't you?"

(Iszara) You know anything about a woman named, Iszara? "Iszara. Named sounds familiar. But I can't say that i do."

(League) What do you know about the Restless League? "Nothing. Who said that I did?"

(Stros M'kai) And what does Stros M'kai hold for you? "I'm what everyone likes to refer to as Mr. Fix-it. I'm cursed by it actually. Oh... and by the way ... if you see a man named Trithik, tell him I'll get to his boat when I have time."

If I see the fellow, I'll tell him. "And as for what keeps me in Stros M'kai, with the Empire and Richton and all... well, I've lived here a long time, got friends and roots here -- And Stros M'kai has deep roots... ancient history... there's the real mystery."

(Trithik's Boat) What's wrong with Trithik's boat? "Not sure, really. I think he's had some vandals at night."

(Mystery) The real mystery? Huh, I've heard too many already. "The ruins. In the mountains. Dwarves, sailor. Long dead. An ancient technological treasure trove. Empire's searching the world for such knowledge. They may have found it here."

(Dwarven Ruins) What does the Empire hope to find there? "Power! Before you know it we'll have steam-driven carriages and flying machines-whole Empire's interested in them dwarves for some reason. Sure, sure, Prince A'Tor, Arkay bless his soul, might've said they were dangerous and we should leave dead civilizations be, but, hell, man, there's progress to be made."

(Flying Machines) Flying machines? Are you OK? "You wait! You just wait! Those dwarves made up for their lack of magic in other ways. Magic is the crutch of the world! Why build a better bridge when a mage can teleport you to the other side? Things have been the same for thousands of years, and it's going to end soon."

(Steam-driven Carriages) Steam-driven carriages, huh? "That's right. Dwarves knew how to use the steam. You may laugh, but it's a powerful force and Richton's got his boys looking at it right now. Empire may have what they need to conquer all of Tamriel sooner than you think."

(Smuggler's Den) What do you know about the Smugglers Den? "I've never been there."

(You've been to den) I know you've been gambling at the smuggler's den, Lakene. And I need to get in there. (After having spoken to Krisandra) "Damn. Where'd you hear that? Look, that's not something I'm proud of, so keep your voice down. Let's move this conversation elsewhere."

(Fix Observatory) You're good with a wrench, and know a lot about these dwarves. Any ideas on fixing the observatory? (After having spoken to Erasmo) "If it's Dwarven, the answer's in the ruins. And I'm not about to challenge Richton's men up there."

(Password) Do you know the password to the smuggler's den? (After having spoken to Rollo) "I don't know what you're talking about."

(Bye) We'll talk later.

After having relocated about the gambling:

(Gambling at den) Gambling away your wife's silver locket? Not good. Tell me what I want to know. What do you know about ISzara. The Leageu, and that den! "Calm down, please! I know nothing. I've only been there to gamble a few times! I've heard the League goes there, but I ain't seen them or this Iszara woman! I swear. And if my wife finds out about the gambling... I'll be dead!"

(Give me password) Then just give me the password, and I'll take it from there. "Sure, sure. But you gotta help me first, Cyrus. Please. Get my silver locket back from that Rollo cheater and I'll give you the password. I swear. Please."

(Rollo) Rollo? "Smelly guy, cheats at cards. He won that locket through trickery, the foul dust-belly!"

After obtaining the locket:

Lakene. "Have you found my locket?"

(Password) I haven't been able to get the locket. Just give me the password. "So much for Redguard honor! We had a deal, Cyrus. No password until I get that locket."

(Give Locket) Ok, Lakene. Here's your locket. Now tell me the password. "Oh, thank goodness! You got it! I'm saved! Never going back that den again, no sir! No more for me! But have your own go at it... The password you require is 'spoon'. Be careful, Cyrus. And thanks again."
