I.e.<br><br>ask ardana about the morthaur / ask ardana about an morthaur /<br>ask ardana about a morthaur (yes i realise some of those don't<br>work grammatically)<br><br>If it has knowledge of the subject (morthaur) it will return it.<br><br>Advantage?  It's more intuitive, especially for new players.<br><br>Disadvantage?  If an NPC knew about "the bork" it may notknow about<br>it any longer.  Let me know if you remember any questions you've<br>asked NPCs (kyldiss springs to mind) where you had to preface the<br>question with "a", "an" or "the" because they will have to be fixed.<br><br>Cheers.<br><br><br><br>[[Category:Changes_Board]]
