-Slotting aliases into text is just this easy. We don't need to check if the alias is filled, because (assuming we're not using an alias with the 'Optional' checkbox checked), the quest simply won't start if it isn't, and we don't need to find the text representation (the 'name') of the location referred to by the alias, because if you're putting an alias in a text field, the engine assumes that's what you want anyway.

For more advanced information on what you can do with this, see the page on [[Text Replacement]].
 The time you want to be more careful not to mention a location (or any other alias that will be filled at runtime) by name is anything that has to be voice-acted. Even then, you can, if you want, voice-act several lines to give a rough location, e.g. narrowing it down to a specific hold or a specific city, but that is left as an exercise for the reader.
