Lord Barkwaf will give you several different prompts for the type of story he wants to hear. In other cases, this will be straightforward, with each story you unlock providing a description of its content or objective. The problem is that when you take on Lord Barkwaf's job, the 'story card' no longer has a description, so it's up to you to figure out what story corresponds to the message he gives you.

Below, I have written down his requests one by one along with the story you would like to tell him.

  • Prompt: “Bard! My rule depends in no small part on destructive plots and frustrating schemes. Sing about the magician who uncovered the secrets!

  • Prompt: Now for something lighter… for the ladies! Keep going! Give us some dirty stuff!

  • Prompt: Of course, I would be a poor lord if I neglected my little ones! Entertain your children with magical magician stories!

  • Prompt: Yeah, this is really exciting… Well, I guess we have to end with death. But give me something relevant. lesson! I am not afraid.
