What they say

I've got the cure for what ails ya! Get it? Ale? No?
They say you're strong, well, I know strong. Let's see if you measure up.
Back where I'm from, we only serve Root Beer...
This is a big upgrade from wiping that table all day.
Life's a challenge when you're just naturally better than everyone else.
What am I doing here...
A lot of tenacity and a little bit of luck can go a long way...
Have you seen any Meburs around here?
the Dryad seems nice. I should bring her back with me.
Do you think the Steampunker has an extra of that gun? I know a witch that may want one.
No wonder the Demolitionist has so many accidents. You can't imagine how much ale he buys from me.
Normally, I'm not much of a fan of Goblins, but the Goblin Tinkerer seems to be an alright sort.
- During the day:
Anyone see where the Dryad went?
- At night:
Really quiet out there. A little too quiet...
- At night:
Check in with me, and do your job.
- During a Blood Moon:
You know, where I'm from, a Blood Moon is actually just an excuse to get some fresh air.
- After Moon Lord is beaten:
Moon Lord, don't you mean Abyss Lord?
- In Hardmode:
I know a Lavamancer that would really like that hellstone down in the underworld.
- When it has no house:
Know any good places to set up shop? Would love to open up a bar here.
You look like a drowned, shaggy dog! How 'bout you down some ale, eh?
Wipe your feet before you step in here, the floor was just waxed!
Take shelter from the storm! Sit down for a pint.
You look a bit frazzled! Perhaps a mug'll calm your singed nerves.
There goes the roof. I had just had it redone yesterday!
Hold onto your bonnet, there's a real breeze out today.
There's a party happening here! I had just wiped down the bar, too.
You should sit down and have a little fun. Don't worry, I don't think any kobolds will crash this party.
For starters, take a few of these Defender Medals, on the house! I've got some special defenses you can purchase, but only with Defender Medals!
Etheria has some dark places, but this takes the cake!
The bar seems kinda dead tonight. Smells like it, too!
Huh? How did I get here? The last thing I remember was a portal opening up in front of me...
Great job on fighting off the Old One's Army! But I'm sure we haven't seen the last of them, they didn't put up much of a fight this time.
The Army of the Old One's keeps getting stronger, yet you keep pushing them back! But something tells me they aren't quite finished with us yet.
You really kept the full force of the Old One's Army at bay? Maybe you should visit Etheria some time.
We should really do something about the Old One's Army. Ask me about the Eternia Crystal if you want to learn more.
