 * If One-Handed Training is less than 4
 * Lyssa: "Hello Avatar! Did you come back for more training?"
 * Yes Avatar: "Yes, thank you, I would like to learn from you."
 * No Avatar: "No thanks, I've got to go."
 * Else
 * Lyssa: "I have taught you all I know. Go with courage Avatar."
 * End
 * Else
 * Lyssa: "At last, a worthy protector has come to take custody of the bell! I'm so glad that it was you, Avatar."
 * Name Avatar: "What is your name, my lady?"
 * Protector Avatar: "You need a worthy protector for the bell?"
 * Bell Avatar: "Is the Bell of Courage in here?"

Name


 * Lyssa: "I am Lyssa, protector of the Bell of Courage."
 * Protector Avatar: "You need a worthy protector for the bell?"
 * Bell Avatar: "Is the Bell of Courage in here?"
 * Bye Avatar: "Goodbye."

Protector


 * Set Lyssa_First_Convo_C to true
 * Lyssa: "Yes, though I am skilled with a sword, and would have fought the arch-mage if he made his way in here, I fear that I would stand little chance against such a foe."
 * Lyssa: "You, however, are skilled in both weaponry and magic and are a better protector of the bell than I."
 * Lyssa: "Please, take the bell and keep it safe from evil. It may help you as well, as it is a powerful token of good."
 * Lyssa: "I may also be able to help you."
 * Set Lyssa_Journal_Flag_1 to true
 * Diary: "Lyssa, the protector of the Bell of Courage, has asked me to take the Bell of Courage with me and use it for good."
 * Name Avatar: "What is your name, my lady?"
 * Help Avatar: "How can you help me?"
 * Bye Avatar: "Goodbye."

Bell


 * Lyssa: "Oh, yes indeed. This has been the resting-place of the bell for many years."
 * Lyssa: "It has quite an ingenious system of protection: when the evil arch-mage neared the Bell Room, the retaining wall came down, thus sealing off the room."
 * Lyssa: "The other protectors fled as the evil approached, but I chose to stay and defend the Bell."
 * Name Avatar: "What is your name, my lady?"
 * Protector Avatar: "You need a worthy protector for the bell?"
 * Bye Avatar: "Goodbye."

Help


 * Lyssa: "As I mentioned, I am quite skilled with a sword. In fact, before the calamity, I was the local trainer. If you'd like, I may be able to help you improve your swordsmanship."
 * Set Lyssa_Journal_Flag_2 to true
 * Diary: "Lyssa used to be the trainer here before the calamity that destroyed Serpent's Hold. She's offered to teach me a new move with the sword, if I have the experience."
 * Yes Avatar: "Yes, thank you, I would like to learn from you."
 * No Avatar: "No thanks, I've got to go."

Yes


 * If Dexterity is 4 and One-handed training is 3
 * Lyssa: "Alright, let me describe this move before I show it to you. Everyone knows that the shield is for defense, right?  Well, it can also be used offensively."
 * Lyssa: "If you step forward and bash your opponent with the face of your shield, you can knock them off balance for a moment, allowing you to throw a follow up blow."
 * Activate Lyssa's trigger and increase One-handed training by one
 * Lyssa: "So there you have it. Use that move well and it can be very effective.  Goodbye."
 * End
 * Else
 * Lyssa: "Hmm, you have to be very dexterous to make the move work for you, and you just don't seem to have that dexterity yet."
 * Lyssa: "Tell you what, come back and see me when you've got better coordination, okay?"
 * End

No


 * Lyssa: "Very well, I will be here if you require such training in the future. Goodbye, Avatar."
 * End

Bye


 * If Avatar has the Bell of Courage
 * Lyssa: "Farewell!"
 * End
 * Else
 * Lyssa: "Don't forget to take the bell with you."
 * Set LYSSA_JOURNAL_FLAG_1 to true
 * "Lyssa, the protector of the Bell of Courage, has asked me to take the Bell of Courage with me and use it for good."

 * End
 * Else
 * Katrina: "You have done well, Avatar. I can feel the humility being restored to New Magincia.  I realize now that even I was affected by the column.

Sigil
