These artist types are always so soft, aren't they? You make one little comment and their egos crumble to dust.

Involvement

Act Three

Slatey Marven is assessing the murals on the wall east of Lora's House and providing a harsh review to the artist, Splatters Doolug.

Idle banter

Slatey Marven: Bit cheery isn't it? Don't you know there's a war on?

• Splatters Doolug: It's precisely in times of trouble that we need images of peace.
  • Slatey Marven: You're just making that up on the spot.

Slatey Marven: Is that supposed to be a bard or a druid?

• Splatters Doolug: It's open to interpretation.
  • Slatey Marven: Sounds like something you'd say if you had no idea.

Slatey Marven: The hands are too big. And I don't like the colours.

• Splatters Doolug: Everyone's a critic these days...
  • Splatters Doolug: You don't have to look at it, you know.
    • Slatey Marven: Why'd you make it so big then?
