Upon getting on the boat:

Nubani: "Looking for someone?"

Speaking to her:

"Did Renzir send you? Nubani hopes he cared to mention his wife alongside his goods."

Yes, he did. He wanted to make sure you're all right.

"So he sends you in his stead? How touching.
No doubt Renzir first mentioned his shipments. Worth enough for us to finally retire, yes? But this one fears her husband will never leave his life as a smuggler."

He's a smuggler? He told me he was a trader.

"A trader? If only we could have such a peaceful life. No, the only thing Renzir delivers to Summerset is contraband. That's why we port within this cave.
Perhaps though, with your help, I can finally force his paw."

Force his paw? With what?

"Putting an end to this dangerous life. If you dump those smuggled goods into the sea, then his only option will be to sell our ship and settle down.
What do you say? Renzir never has to know."

No. I made a deal with Renzir, and I'm going to honor that.

"If you're not willing to help, this one suggests you leave. There are darker forces in this cave than mutinying smugglers. Nubani will sail out of Karnwasten as soon as she can.
And let Renzir know she will find him soon."

What do you mean by darker forces?

"Madja is no necromancer, yet undead line these shores. Strange, no?
There is a powerful force at work, deep within the caves of Karnwasten. Something lurks in the darkness, and Nubani isn't waiting around for it to come out."

All right. I'll dump the shipments into the sea.

"Quickly, dump the shipments overboard. There are darker forces in this cave than mutinying smugglers. Nubani wishes to sail out of Karnwasten as soon as possible.
And have no worries. She will find her way back to Renzir."

Won't dumping these shipments leave you destitute?

"Ah, but Nubani and Renzir are so resourceful, yes? The profit from this ship will be more than enough to open up a little shop. A simple life, yes, but honorable.
No more dealing with necromancers and smelly caves."

What do you mean by darker forces?

"Madja is no necromancer, yet undead line these shores. Strange, no?
There is a powerful force at work, deep within the caves of Karnwasten. Something lurks in the darkness, and Nubani isn't waiting around for it to come out."

Why should I betray Renzir? How will this help him?

"'Just one more trip,' Renzir tells me. 'Just one more trip.'
But it has been five years, and Nubani tires of hiding in caves and waiting for night. She loves her husband, but fears he will never stop. He just needs the right incentive."

Have you tried talking to him?

"Many times. Loudly. Repeatedly.
If we trade our ship, there will be no choice but to settle down. An honorable life in the sun is all this one asks. It's what Renzir wants too. He just needs the right push."

After talking to her in Karnwasten and choosing to dump the shipments:

"Quickly, dump the shipments overboard. There are darker forces in this cave than mutinying smugglers. Nubani wishes to sail out of Karnwasten as soos as possible.
And have no worries. She will find her way back to Renzir."

After you exit the last conversation with Renzir and start to walk away, if you helped Nubani she will appear and you'll hear:

Renzir: "Nubani! There you are. Renzir knew you would escape."

Nubani: "With no help from her coward husband, of course."

Renzir: "Oh, do not say such things. Especially on such a day, when all has been lost."

Nubani: "Oh? But we still have the ship. We'll sell it in the nearest harbor, yes? Buy a little shop, just as you promised?"

Renzir: "Well, yes. Of course. Though, perhaps, we find sailors? Who wish for work?"

Nubani: "Renzir …."

Renzir: "Yes, yes! We sell the ship! Of course. We start a shop, just as you wish."

Nubani: "Good."

If you didn't help Nubani, you'll hear instead:

Renzir: "Nubani! Renzir is so pleased to see you unharmed."

Nubani: "Yes, this one escaped. No thanks to her coward husband."

Renzir: "Do not say such things, when Renzir has such great news!"

Nubani: "Good news?"

Renzir: "The day has come. This one will give up his life on the high seas, and settle down."

Nubani: "Truly? We will open the shop, as you've always promised?"

Renzir: "Yes. What use has Renzir for treasure, when he has you by his side?"

Nubani: "Renzir …. This one has never been more happy."
