==Messages==
===Entry===

First time:

Waves of blistering heat ripple off of the lava-covered landscape that
surrounds you. Off in the distance, you can see the craggy rocks
of Fire-Brigade Base.

Suddenly, the hairs on your neck stand on end as you detect a faint hint of
evil moisture in the air.

Next time:

Once again, you near Fire-Brigade Base. You know that Smokey
will be waiting.

If already rejected twice due to bad alignment:

Again, and you think possibly for the last time, you approach
Fire-Brigade Base.

===Quest guardians===

If #chatting before the quest is complete:

"The battles here have been good -- our enemies' blood has boiled away!"
"May your days always be warm!"
"We have had trouble concentrating on our studies!"
"The water elementals are fierce, but they boil away under our fire!"
"Smokey is a strange one, but he has helped defend us."

If #chatting after the quest is complete:

"May your days always be warm!"
"Since the defeat of the hoarde, all can concentrate fully on our studies!"
"I'm taking my holidays in Gehennom this year - very warm there, supposedly"
"Have you noticed how much stronger Smokey is since the Fire Chief Helmet was recovered?"

===Quest leader===

When you first meet your quest leader:

When you return, having been rejected due to lack of experience:

This message is not currently used:

When you are expelled from the quest for having failed the alignment test
seven times:

When being rejected due to lack of experience:

When being rejected due to having worse than pious alignment:

When finally assigned the quest:

====Encouragement====

If you subsequently chat to your quest leader, you are encouraged:

===Locate level===

When first entering the locate level:

''To be written.''

When returning:

''To be written.''

===Goal level===
When first entering the goal level:

''To be written.''

When returning:

''To be written.''

===Quest nemesis===

''To be written.''

====Discouragement====

''To be written.''

===Victory===

When picking up your quest artifact:

As you pick up the Fire Chief Helmet, you feel the power of it
flowing through your hands. It seems to be in two or more places
at once, even though you are holding it.

When killing the nemesis:

Eddie the Pyro falls to the ground, and utters a last curse at you. Then his
body fades slowly, seemingly dispersing into the air around you. You
slowly become aware that the overpowering aura of magic in the air has
begun to fade.

When returning to your quest leader:

''To be written.''

When subsequently throwing the Orb of Detection to Lord Carnarvon:

''To be written.''

===Post-quest===
''To be written.''
