Ah-ha, Unkindled are we?
Welcome to my abode.
I am Cornyx, an old pyromancer.
A crow in his cage as you see, now.
But here we are, an encounter for the ages!
I hear the Unkindled make for fine vessels.
Care to learn pyromancies from this old man?
Answer "Ask to learn pyromancy":
Most wise. A chance encounter should not be squandered.
To reiterate, I am Cornyx, of the Great Swamp.
The pleasure is mine.
Answer "Decline":
Most foolish. This old crow has a little knowledge on his own, you know.
Bah. No sense in spelling it out.
I will not rush you. You will return, once you are enlightened.
We are, after all, both Undead. And both prisoners in our own ways.
Approaching him in Firelink Shrine
Ahh, there you are, Unkindled One.
I wish to express my gratitude.
For trusting a lowly pyromancer, and allowing me to gaze upon this majestic flame.
As promised, I will impart pyromancies to you.
But first you will need a flame of your own. Gifts Pyromancy Flame
Careful you don't burn yourself with it.
"Talk" option
To learn pyromancies, you must vow to become my pupil."
I know, I know, but such is the way of the world. Respect your elders, and so on.
And pyromancy, of course, is no exception.
Oh, we'll need a pyromancy tome to learn more advanced pyromancies.
Through unorthodox, that would be the most expedient way to make progress.
If this were the Great Swamp, and you had the luxury of time, we could have trained you the hard way.
Giving him the Carthus Pyromancy Tome
Well, well… I've never seen anything like this.
This inscription… this tome is from the Catacombs.
Fascinating. On this day, the teacher learns alongside the pupil.
"Talk" option after giving him the Carthus Pyromancy Tome
Ahh, you found this tome in the Catacombs…
This spell is akin to chaos.
It may even serve as a link to Izalith, home of pyromancies…
Giving him the Great Swamp Pyromancy Tome
Yes, here we are. It's been long indeed.
With this, I can teach you more sophisticated pyromancies.
Splendid. I can boast I am your tutor a little longer.
"Talk" option after giving him the Great Swamp Pyromancy Tome
If you seek pyromancy tomes, take this sage advice.
The lands of the Lords converge upon Lothric.
The home of pyromancies drifts comparatively close, as well.
At least, that is what pyromancers of the Great Swamp believe.
The place is called Izalith. Oh, how I wish to behold a primal pyromancy.
Well, these are old tales. No one knows where the truth begins, or ends.
Giving him the Izalith Pyromancy Tome
Ah, what have we here! A pyromancy tome from Izalith!
Then you've found the home of pyromancy.
Brilliant, I will never curse being old and Undead again.
Now, now, show it here, quickly. Let us channel them together.
The primal pyromancies known only to old Master Salaman!
"Talk" option after giving him the Izalith Pyromancy Tome
missing
Attempting to give him the Quelana Pyromancy Tome
Ahh, what have we here…
By the gods, this inscription reads Quelana, the ancient deity, one of the witches of Izalith…
The last of them, who wandered the lands. Then she must have returned to Izalith, after all.
But I regret to say, I cannot accept this.
Quelana's pyromancies are for witches, and must be learned from a mistress.
But thank you, for allowing me to peer upon such a thing.
If only I were a woman…
Attempting to give him the Grave Warden Pyromancy Tome
I'm afraid I cannot accept this.
This pyromancy tome is dark, and delves into the depths of men, where an untouchable flame resides.
I cannot comprehend this myself, let alone teach it to you.
It is a spell forbidden in the Great Swamp, and nearly everywhere else too.
Only one terribly afflicted, or burdened by deep sorrow, could begin to understand this.
Greeting
Ahh, there you are, Unkindled One. I am pleased to have a pupil as dedicated as you.
Leaving
Do not be gone for long.
What is a teacher without a pupil?
"Talk" command after (requirements need confirmation)
Fear the fire.
Heed my words, Unkindled One.
Fear the fire.
The home of Pyromancy, Izalith, was scorched by the very fire it created.
Undoubtedly, it was a flame of chaos, tangled by a witchd's hand.
But who's to say that this Bonfire's flame is any different?
When attacked but not made hostile
Why? What's the matter?
When attacked and made hostile
Fine, fine, I see how it is.
When killing the player
Spare the rod and spoil the child.
When killed
I can't complain… This old reverie…had to end…
