Dialogue

"[Difficulty: Master] [Solo Quest] You have defeated all the opponents I could find for you. It is now time you and I go head to head. You have come far quite quickly. Far faster than I would have expected considering your mental limitations. But now you face certain defeat. My tactics are flawless, my ability legendary. All those you have played before are but children compared to my infinite skill and lifetimes of training. Are you certain you are prepared for what lies ahead, human?"
Accept: "Prepare yourself for an old-fashioned butt kicking, infinity boy."
Reject: "Infinite? Lifetimes? Who... or what... are you?"

Intermediate Dialogue 1 (Hoff)

"Polymock is the ultimate test of intellect and magical prowess among my people. Naturally, you humans have difficulty grasping the basics of the game. Poor creatures. Should you prove yourself worthy by defeating skilled opponents, perhaps I will allow you to play me in a game."
Player response: "Polymock: Defeat Master Hoff"
"You will be removed from your party and taken to a Polymock arena to battle Hoff. Do you wish to proceed?"
Accept: "Yes."
Reject: "No."

Reward Dialogue

"Incredible! I am quite astounded that your puny brain could contain all of my teachings, and yet here is the proof. I must congratulate... myself. I am, without a doubt, the greatest Polymock teacher in the world."
