@Lord Loss: See, even that's more interesting (if more annoying) than Lao. Lao doesn't do anything (at all) for 3/4 of the quest until you get to the fort. You literally have to try to be stepped on by him. He doesn't respond when you attack him, he just keeps walking so painfully slowly until you get to area 5, and even there he has to walk all the way to the wall itself before initiating his completely repetitive attack pattern.
