    Anyone ever revisited Half-Ogre Island after doing the half-ogre conspiracy quest? All the equipment has gone!

    I didn't know if this was common knowledge (searching for Half-Ogre AND Island doesn't yield vey clear results about if this was known about already or not) but I still thought it was a very cool touch and it adds a little something more to the mystery surrounding the quest.

    I guess I liked it because it adds realism to know that sometimes things are out of your control. Still the fact that a load of gnomes and heavy lifters (I'm guessing half-ogres) got the all the equipment from there with no one notcing and no record of it is a testament to the level of control they must have.

    You talked with Victor Wright about your proof just a few days ago? Not according to him.

    The reporter you gave the proof? No one has ever heard about him.

    Can you be even sure you ever had the proof in your hands?

    You return to that cursed island just to look at the horror factory again, to show yourself that it is there and that you are not crazy.

    NOT!

    But how can this be? Everything is gone. How could it be gone? How!? There's no way to move it so fa-

    It was never here.

    What!? That.

    Time to face the truth. You have been pursued by assassins all over Arcanum for months and it has finally happened.

    You snapped.

    You finally went bonkers. Happens to the best of us.

    You filled your silly head with that cute fantasy of fighting a conspiracy to escape from the reality of numerous murderers craving nothing else but to gut you open.

    What do you do next, you sweet brave hero, you? Do you admit to your delusions, keep them to yourself and return to reality?

    Or do you fall for your delusions...

    Too bad the riot already wiped out all the gnomes in Tarant for this character! If I put myself into my character's shoes though I would definitely think that I'd just imagined the whole thing, they do go to some lengths to cover their tracks.
