Southeast Guard

Oh, um, pardon me, I m Stumpy Barris.

I, uh, used to be a farmer, but now I m... a guard here.

Sorry for the confusion, I m just trying to do my duty.

I always wanted to be, well, a hero, you see.

Not very good at it yet, I'm afraid, but I m trying my best.

Apologies for the mess; it s my first day on the job.

I know I don't look like much, but it's my honor to protect this village.

Sorry if I'm in your way, but, um, safety first, right?

Oh, uh, I'm... I'm fine, thank you for asking.

Just trying to do my job here, keeping watch, you know?

It's my first day.

Apologies if I seem a bit jittery; it's just my nature.

I m still getting used to this, um, guarding business.

I really want to do a good job, keep everyone safe.

But, um, yes, I'm doing alright. Thanks for your concern.

Oh, um, you're in Windstone Village. Sorry if it's a bit, well, quiet.

It's a lovely place, really. I mean, everything's so well-kept.

We have hardworking folks here. Um, truly dedicated people.

It's safe here, I assure you! Well, I try my best to keep it that way.

Uh, the barrels, yes, they need checking often. Just to be sure, sorry.

The brownies and dwarves, they re... very kind. And, um, resilient.

Oh, um, yes, if it s not too much trouble.

Actually, yes, I could use a hand, sorry to bother you.

Yes, please, if you have a moment. Thank you!

Uh, yes, there is something. I'd really appreciate your help.

Yes, if you don't mind. I mean, I m in charge here, after all.

Absolutely, yes. Oh, and thank you in advance, sorry!

Oh, yes, that would be wonderful. I'm, uh, trying to manage things here.

Yes, indeed! I'm quite excited about it, sorry for the trouble!

Oh, um, no need right now, sorry!

I think I've got things under control, but thanks!

No, no, thank you. I'm, um, managing here.

Appreciate the offer, but I'm on top of it, I hope.

Oh, not at the moment, but thank you so much!

I m okay for now, but I appreciate you asking!

Not right now, sorry! But thank you for offering!

I m fine, I think. Just doing my rounds, you know!
