Karl’s quest

Steps and disagreements

The step list in the extract is: speak to Wisshelm, enter the office, obtain a fire mount and do not spend it on fights, ride to the mine mouth, have the mount breathe on the door, and start the forge inside the Draconic Vault. The mount that matches the fire-breath description on the wiki is the Dracoraptor. Steam posts say dragon mount and fire-breathing dino in the same breath. I treat those as the same job even though no sentence says the two names are official synonyms.

Story notes say the forge matters to a new dwarf generation. One telling says twenty-seven years and another says twenty-seven cycles. I print both and do not pick. The first conversation that actually flags the quest is not fully written down, so I do not invent a dialogue tree. The Underking can be fought on the same mine route. He is not a required phase of this quest in the notes.
