Gather some dry fire wood and return to Noli in the Badlands.
That drunken fool! He's absolutely outrageous! I am here for serious matters, not mundane, meaningless tasks. I will not stand for this, no, no! Please, help me out. I'd rather pay you than give that man the satisfaction that he convinced someone of my intellect to do this laborsome chore. There should be some old lumber around. This desolate place has no trees, it's just a barren wasteland as far as I can see! Try and find any lumber you can and bring it back to me so we can prepare a fire.
That drunk old dwarf. Ugh! Please come back as soon as you can.
You have no idea how much your help means to me. Here's a little token of my appreciation.
