In Lumbridge Castle[]
- Duke Horacio: Greetings. Welcome to my castle.
- Player: I seek a shield that will protect me from dragonbreath.
- Duke Horacio: A knight going on a dragon quest, hmm? What dragon do you intend to slay?
- Duke Horacio: Of course. Now you've slain Elvarg, you've earned the right to it!
- The duke hands you the shield.
- Player: Have you any quests for me?
- Duke Horacio: No, all is well.
- Player: Where can I find money?
- Duke Horacio: I hear many of the local people earn money by learning a skill. Many people get by in life by becoming accomplished smiths, cooks, miners and woodcutters.
- Player: What happened to the castle?
- Player: Can you give me a quick summary of what happened?
- Duke Horacio: Yes, the castle suffered badly during the recent Battle of Lumbridge - Saradomin and Zamorak were fighting in the crater you can see to the west.
- Duke Horacio: Right after they arrived in the world again they started fighting, and the forces unleashed were too much for the walls. Whole sections collapsed completely!
- Duke Hoarcio: Fortunately my guards were ready and able, and immediately set to work helping the people of Lumbridge to stay clear of the battlefield.
- Duke Horacio: They did a fine job of protecting us and have been exemplary in their conduct. I am proud of them.
- Duke Horacio: Now that the battle is over, people are coming from all over the world to help rebuild Lumbridge. I am overwhelmed by their generosity.
- Duke Horacio: If you've come to help out, you should speak to Foreman George to the north of the castle.
- Duke Horacio: Nevertheless, I am glad the battle is over.
- Player: Can you show me what happened again?

During the Battle of Lumbridge[]
- Player: What happened to the castle?
- Player: Can you give me a quick summary of what happened?
- Duke Horacio: Yes, the castle has suffered some... problems lately. In case you've not noticed, there's a large crater over where Saradomin and Zamorak are fighting.
- Duke Horacio: Right after they arrived in the world again they started fighting, and the forces unleashed were too much for the walls. Whole sections collapsed completely!
- Duke Hoarcio: Fortunately my guards were ready and able, and immediately set to work helping the people of Lumbridge to stay clear of the battlefield.
- Duke Horacio: They are doing a good job, but I worry that they are too few to protect the citizens, and myself, from the forces that rage on the battlefield.
- Duke Horacio: But I can do no more to help them - my budget does not stretch so far! We can only hope that Saradomin and Zamorak focus on each other, and not here.

- [World Event] Discuss the castle
- Duke Horacio: The situation in Lumbridge is catastrophic, but I believe it is possible to do something about it if we break it down into small, manageable chunks.
- Duke Horacio: I have officially unlocked the emergency treasury and plan to use it to address individual problems that come to my attention.
- Player: What happened to the castle?
At Lumbridge beach[]
- Duke Horacio: What a happy event we have going on here! But what we're missing is a Lumbridge sandcastle, yes that would finish the event nicely.
- Player: You're not very subtle about what you want are you?
