If the player character meets Gimblebock after exiting the crypt while using {{SAI|Detect Thoughts}}, they learn that he is wondering what happened to his crew inside the crypt - though he is more worried about whether the player character has the upper hand than him regarding his allies' lives.

== Idle banter ==
Gimblebock and Taman can be overheard arguing whether to loot the Nautiloid Wreck.
{{Dialogue start}}
'''Gimblebock:''' There could be all sorts of loot in that thing - don't you want to be rich?
* '''Taman:''' Of course I want to be rich - but not if it'll get me killed.
** '''Gimblebock:''' You'll die a bloody pauper unless you take a few risks.
*** '''Taman:''' Why don't we just wait a while? Make sure it's safe.
**** '''Gimblebock:''' Either we act now, or someone else will pick that wreck clean and leave us nothing.
***** '''Taman:''' Haven't seen anyone but us. It's just wilderness out here.
****** '''Gimblebock:''' Hells. Pity you aren't as good at graverobbing as you are at excuses.
******* '''Taman:''' Just being careful. Like my mum always said, fools rush in.
