More than once, you will face a challenge in scripted dialogue form. This can occur when entering or leaving an area with a climbing attempt or in other ventures.

souls of other people. What have they done wrong in a past life, which death
they died and what good deeds they have done, learn it by in a few lines, which
should be read. It is not this but more than a nice little feature and
contributes nothing to the actual story.
