== Dialogue ==
The dialogue of Istani Commoners varies depending on where you are in the storyline.

Before completion of the [[Jokanur Diggings]] mission.
:''"Did you see the delegation from [[Vabbi]]? All the banners and trumpets! I thought my heart would stop. It was magnificent."''
:''"I trust the Elders to do what's right. I know they'll have a plan to help us against these horrible [[corsair]]s."''
:''"I've heard of a young <character's profession> in these parts that's helping the [[Sunspears]]. Is that you, by chance?"''
:''"[[Kourna]] sent a delegation to Istan, too. But all of [[Varesh Ossa]]'s soldiers look like they're ready to fight. Those aren't politicians, they're generals."''
:''"Look at you! Growing up so fast. Branching out. Ah, you remind me of [[Kormir]] when she was young!"''

After completion of the Jokanur Diggings mission.
:''"Don't tell me what you saw in [[Fahranur]]! It's too awful to imagine."''
:''"I heard about those ghosts at Jokanur Diggings. How brave you are to make it through their trials."''
:''"I love Istan in the morning. Can you hear the birds singing?"''
:''"The Kournans are grumbling about you, <character name>. They say you're in their way. But how can that be, when you haven't done anything to them?"''
:''"There's a great monster from [[Palawa Joko]]'s time sleeping beneath the halls of Jokanur Diggings. Are you certain you didn't wake it up?"''

After completion of the [[Blacktide Den]] mission.
:''"Ahai, <character name>. You look a little seasick. Are the corsairs causing you trouble?"''
:''"I heard the Sunspears talking about [[General Kahyet]]. Did she really try to betray us all to the corsairs?"''
:''"[[Ironfist]]! He's famous! You must be kidding. Is he really involved?"''
:''"The corsairs have increased their attacks. I'm going to stay inland for now, and hope the whole thing blows over."''
:''"War? Do you really think so? I saw the Kournans leave, but I'm not sure they'll stay gone. Varesh seemed too eager to send them here in the first place..."''

After completion of the [[Consulate Docks]] mission.
:''"Ahai! <character name>! Any news of [[Koss]]?"''
:''"Are you all right? I've heard such terrible things!"''
:''"Koss, captured? What will the Sunspears do without him! Oh, [[Dwayna]], this is terrible!"''
:''"I thought Kormir trained you Sunspears better than this. Should we ask the Kournans to protect us instead?"''
:''"I'm praying to [[Balthazar]] for you. He's never abandoned Istan in our hour of need. He'll help us now."''

After completion of the [[Moddok Crevice]] mission.
:''"Can't the Elders help at all? All they do is sit and talk about the problem while the Sunspears get cut down like grain."''
:''"I'm glad the Sunspears are all right. Especially Koss. He's wonderful."''
:''"Thank goodness you're here, <character name>. Without heroes like you, Istan would be lost."''
:''"Thank you for helping [[Lonai]]. She's very important to me."''
:''"Where's Vabbi while this is happening? Hiding like turtles in their shells. When everything's fine, they're all parties and parades, but at the first hint of danger...gone."''

After completion of the [[Grand Court of Sebelkeh]] mission.
:''"...And then a terrible beast climbed out of the pit and ate me... in the middle of the dream! It was so real!"''
:''"And I thought we had trouble from the corsairs!"''
:''"Can you take this message for me? It's for my cousin, [[Goren]], in Vabbi. I just want to know he's all right."''
:''"My head is killing me. These nightmares won't let me get any sleep."''
:''"We need Vabbi's help. Things have gotten so dark here. We can't get out of this alone."''

After completion of the [[Ruins of Morah]] mission.
:''"I'm moving my family to Vabbi. Whatever's happening in Istan, I don't want any part of it."''
:''"Nightfall! But the crops aren't harvested. Who will bring in the grain if the world ends?"''
:''"Please, you've got to help us. You saved us from the corsairs... and the Kournans. Save us from Nightfall?"''
:''"Ssssh, don't say it out loud. There's enough talk about the end of the world to go tempting fate like that."''
:''"The skies darken and clouds cover the moon. I don't know if this is the end of the world, but the omens are as black as coal..."''

After completion of the [[Abaddon's Gate]] mission.
:''"Your story is legend! Everyone's talking about you! And to think I knew you when!"''
:''"I baked you some cookies. Here take them. It's the least I can do for the heroes who saved all of Elona."''
:''"I'm so glad you've returned. I've wanted a chance to thank you for everything you did for Istan. You even stopped Nightfall! How can we thank you enough?"''
:''"It's good to get back to a simpler life. Wait, you don't suppose we'll have any corsair problems now, do you?"''
:''"The crops must be harvested and the field sown. I'm glad you stopped Nightfall, but the world didn't end so it's back to work for me."''

== Quotes ==
Only from Istani Commoner near merchants and traders in Kamadan, Jewel of Istan:
:''"Elonian flatbread! Who wants some freshly baked Elonian flatbread? Straight from the ovens! Get it here!"''
:''"Fresh fish! Get your fresh fish here!"''
:''"Produce! Picked fresh daily! Get your produce!"''
Only from Istani Commoner in center square of Kamadan, Jewel of Istan:
:''"Sorry, I'm just not sleeping well lately. I keep having the same nightmares over and over."''
:''"Corsairs? In my day I could have taken ten at once. I was good. I was. And strong, too. You should have seen me. No, twenty! Yeah! Definitely twenty when I was in my prime."''
:''"Drakes too. Anyone want to hear 'bout my drake-killing days?"''
:''"'You have no dignity!' she yells, and throws my clothes in the street..."''
:''"So then this lich says 'No, please, you're too powerful! I'll give you some of my gold if you let me live...' and I say, 'Die evil creature spawn being!'. You should have seen it.
Only from Istani Commoner near Dockmaster Ahlaro in Kamadan, Jewel of Istan:
:''"I don't get paid enough to do this much lifting."''

==Notes==
*The Istani Commoners that appear with [[Rahlon]] are listed as Monks in the [[User interface|party window and target display]] despite only using a Warrior skill.
