Wierd, in my first pass through the single player game, I talked to
*everyone* before going down to the dungeon for the first time - I never
met the dying soldier, nor did I ever see the butcher on any level.  My
first quest was the tainted water supply.  After that I had to get the
"magic stone" for griswald to fashion a ring, then the stolen tavern sign.
But my second game with a mage, I did not talk to anyone and headed
towards the church, and there was the dying soldier.

When I first heard about the butcher, I was puzzled since I had never met
him.  I first met him in multiplayer.
