Borab the Mason

Borab the Mason is the Orc mason in charge of the rebuilding of Orsinium. He can be found outside The Greedy Gut.

Dialogue[edit]

If you speak with him after arriving in the city, he will introduce himself.

"Welcome to the grand Orsinium! I'm the master mason, responsible for all of the construction you see going on around the city."

If you speak with him after completing Invitation to Orsinium, he will thank you for helping out the caravan. He can also be asked about his work on the city.

"You're the one who aided the caravan? Thank you! The additional workers that just arrived have already helped us get back on schedule."
So what does a master mason do exactly?
"I oversee all the workers, develop the plans for repairs and new construction, order supplies … it keeps me busy! Luckily, we had a good foundation to build upon. The Orcs that came before us certainly made things last!"
So you're building on the ruins of the old city?
"We're building atop the ruins of the previous Orsinium that occupied this same spot. There was an older city, but that's located some distance from here.
The Bretons occupied this place most recently, and they did keep it in good repair."

If you speak to him after having defeated the Winterborn at Frostbreak Fortress:

"Just look at how our city progresses! And now that the Winterborn warlord is dead, I expect we'll have few problems from here on in."
How is the city's construction coming along?
"Major infrastructure work is nearing completion, and the return of the supplies stolen by the Winterborn has really made a difference to our efforts.
We'd be a bit further along if we hadn't stopped to celebrate when we heard the Ice-Heart was dead."

Speaking after Blood on a King's Hands is completed:

"Just as the grand city nears completion, the king has died. If I wasn't so busy, I'd be weeping in the street right now."
It looks like the city repairs are almost complete.
"Yes, the final touches are being added even as we speak. Repairs to the market stalls and main gates will make Orsinium a shining example of what a city should be.
I Just wish the king were still alive to see his dream come to fruition."

After Long Live the King the renovations will be finished.

"Everything you see is, in large part, thanks to your efforts! And with a new king on the throne, the future of Orsinium looks bright and gleaming.
We're going to miss you when you're gone."
