Idle banter

Polandulus will occasionally chat with Aminah:

Fist of Bane Aminah: It's been an age since Gortash's last visit.

• Fist of Bane Polandulus: Lord Gortash - you have not earned such familiarity.
  • Fist of Bane Aminah: Forgive me, Dread Brother. I simply... wish to look upon Bane's Chosen once more.

Fist of Bane Aminah: I heard the Black Hand's favoured can command the room with a single word. And that he knows no fear.

• Fist of Bane Polandulus: Instead of sharing idle gossip about Lord Gortash, I suggest you focus on your duties.
  • Fist of Bane Aminah: Of course, Dread Brother.

Fist of Bane Aminah: Have you ever spoken to him?

• Fist of Bane Polandulus: Lord Gortash? Only once. I felt the Black Hand's power in every word.
  • Fist of Bane Aminah: To speak to him, face-to-face? The very thought sends chills up my spine.
    • Fist of Bane Polandulus: You are a long way from such an honour.
