Short guard salutes you and says: "Welcome to Arelium, young lich! If you get
lost, you can ask me or any other guard in town for directions to various
locations, and we will do our best to assist you. The League of Exiles is also
always willing to lend a helping hand".
Chat (Short guard)> directions
Short guard says: "So where do you want to go? Arelium has lots of restaurants
and quite a few pubs to keep a fine traveller like you happy. If you're
looking for shops, we have them all here in Arelium - weapon shops, armour
shops, clothiers, tool shops and luxury stores. We even have a bazaar. If
you're more of the merchanty type, you can ask me for various locations of
commerce, like banks. Arelium also has some religious establishments, and
quite a few guilds. Finally, as you're now in the capital of Agathoria,
there's naturally lots of government offices also, not to mention famous (or
infamous) landmarks. So you see, Lyriikka, there's quite alot to see and do
here".

- remove that first sentence league of exiles is what etc... no need to type
'directions', instead make guard utter that second bit immediately
- make it so that movement, moving east west north south breaks the
conversation... now you can get 'trapped' if you don't notice that pressing
enter breaks it
- could the prompt be changed so that if you write 'shop', the guard would
list all the shops with their names and you could pick one of them with a
number... so instead of keyword it would work like a GREP... you got list of
places and based on users input you grep the result from them...
- after you succefully set a target... the direction thing could be a more
noticeable...
