Not long now until the duel. Rrrrgh...[ST:n ]I am a dead man.[ST:wait ] |
2 |
|
qev050401_MSG0002 |
Why did it have to be like this? I only ever wanted the[ST:n ]freedom to live as I choose.[ST:wait ] |
3 |
|
qev050401_MSG0003 |
...Hmm? Y-you are human![ST:wait ] |
4 |
|
qev050401_MSG0004 |
Hold, human! I would have a moment of your time.[ST:n ]For I have encountered many rumors of New LA,[ST:n ]and wish to hear of it from one who lives there.[ST:wait ] |

Question |
8 |
|
qev050401_SEL0021 |
Ask De Ezich why he is so interested in NLA. |
9 |
|
qev050401_MSG0005 |
You are too kind.[ST:wait ] |
10 |
|
qev050401_MSG0006 |
...Mmm. yes. I see. What a stimulating place![ST:n ]Truly, the more I hear of your city,[ST:n ]the more amazing it sounds.[ST:wait ] |
11 |
|
qev050401_MSG0007 |
I would very much like to visit it someday,[ST:n ]but alas, I am being kept in here.[ST:wait ] |
12 |
|
qev050401_MSG0068 |
But hearing your stories only makes me more[ST:n ]determined to see it for myself! For you see,[ST:n ]we Wrothians had nothing so exciting back home.[ST:wait ] |
13 |
|
qev050401_MSG0008 |
...You care about that? How fascinating.[ST:n ]You humans truly are curious about everything![ST:wait ] |
14 |
|
qev050401_MSG0009 |
I heard about your city from some friends who have[ST:n ]been there. I heard that there is a freedom which does[ST:n ]not exist here...[ST:wait ] |
15 |
|
qev050401_MSG0010 |
And ever since, I've spent my time in this cave[ST:n ]dreaming of what New LA must be like.[ST:wait ] |
16 |
|
qev050401_MSG0011 |
In my mind's eye, it's bustling and beautiful—nothing[ST:n ]like the drab gloom of a Wrothian city. Why, I wager[ST:n ]you see new and surprising things every day![ST:wait ] |
17 |
|
qev050401_MSG0012 |
Ahh, I am so envious! I would give anything to live in[ST:n ]a place like that.[ST:wait ] |
18 |
|
qev050401_MSG0013 |
And I could work as a BLADE, taking on whatever[ST:n ]duties I liked, free from stuffy Wrothian traditions and[ST:n ]obligations.[ST:wait ] |
19 |
|
qev050401_MSG0014 |
Speaking of which, what manner of work do you do?[ST:n ]You certainly have the look of a warrior...[ST:wait ] |
20 |
|
qev050401_JNK0030 |
Explain |
21 |
|
qev050401_SEL0031 |
Tell De Ezich that you are a BLADE. |
22 |
|
qev050401_JNK0040 |
Refute |
23 |
|
qev050401_SEL0041 |
Tell him being a BLADE isn't all sunshine and lollipops. |
24 |
|
qev050401_MSG0015 |
A BLADE?! Fate truly has smiled upon me this day![ST:wait ] |
25 |
|
qev050401_MSG0016 |
I apologize, human. I meant no offense.[ST:wait ] |
26 |
|
qev050401_MSG0017 |
I meant only that BLADEs are allowed to work by their[ST:n ]own say-so. Not like the duty-bound slavery of we[ST:n ]Wrothians.[ST:wait ] |
27 |
|
qev050401_MSG0018 |
...Hold a moment. Are YOU a BLADE? Ha![ST:n ]Fate has truly smiled upon me this day![ST:wait ] |
28 |
|
qev050401_MSG0019 |
So BLADEs are mercenaries that do tasks for others,[ST:n ]yes? Even people of other races?[ST:wait ] |
29 |
|
qev050401_MSG0020 |
In that case, I would cry your aid, mighty BLADE.[ST:n ]For I have been challenged to a duel by a fellow[ST:n ]Wrothian.[ST:wait ] |
30 |
|
qev050401_MSG0021 |
My foe has the strength of many men. And while I am[ST:n ]not one to back down from a fight, I know when I am[ST:n ]outclassed.[ST:wait ] |
31 |
|
qev050401_MSG0022 |
Is there any way you could act as my proxy and defeat[ST:n ]my enemy for me?[ST:wait ] |
32 |
|
qev050401_MSG0023 |
Blessed day! I was quite worried, you see.[ST:n ]My foe is rather...upset with me.[ST:wait ] |
33 |
|
qev050401_MSG0024 |
If I fought, he'd likely beat me half to death.[ST:n ]Or perhaps even all the way.[ST:wait ] |
34 |
|
qev050401_JNK0050 |
Assure |
35 |
|
qev050401_SEL0051 |
Tell De Ezich he has nothing to worry about now. |
36 |
|
qev050401_JNK0060 |
Query |
37 |
|
qev050401_SEL0061 |
Ask De Ezich how things came to this point. |
38 |
|
qev050401_MSG0025 |
Impressive. If you were a Wrothian, you'd tell me to[ST:n ]fight the duel and die with quiet honor. To be honest,[ST:n ]I prefer how you humans operate.[ST:wait ] |
39 |
|
qev050401_MSG0026 |
That said, my foe has not wronged me so badly.[ST:n ]Try not to hurt him too much if at all possible.[ST:wait ] |
40 |
|
qev050401_MSG0027 |
Er, it's...complicated.[ST:wait ] |
41 |
|
qev050401_MSG0028 |
Perhaps some things are simply better left unsaid.[ST:n ]I ask instead for you to clear your mind and focus[ST:n ]on the duel to come.[ST:wait ] |
42 |
|
qev050401_MSG0029 |
I will say, however, that my foe has not wronged me[ST:n ]so greatly. Try not to hurt him too much if possible.[ST:wait ] |
43 |
|
qev050401_MSG0030 |
Oh, and if after your great victory you can strike a[ST:n ]heroic pose and cry out \"De Ezich is now free!\"[ST:n ]that would be perfect.[ST:wait ] |
44 |
|
qev050401_MSG0041 |
You may hear some nonsense from the others about[ST:n ]something I did or...whatnot, but pay it no mind.[ST:wait ] |
45 |
|
qev050401_MSG0042 |
Just win that duel and cry out, \"De Ezich is now free!\"[ST:n ]That is all I need.[ST:wait ] |
46 |
|
qev050401_MSG0043 |
I am counting on you, mighty BLADE![ST:n ]...Er, you should probably set out for Sylvalum now.[ST:n ]...Oh, and whatever you do, don't lose.[ST:wait ] |
47 |
|
qev050401_MSG0044 |
YES! Now I truly AM free! It's just as they say—justice[ST:n ]always triumphs in the end![ST:wait ] |
48 |
|
qev050401_MSG0045 |
My mother and father are far too uptight![ST:n ]It's always Wrothian pride this, Prince Jiarg that.[ST:wait ] |
49 |
|
qev050401_MSG0046 |
Duty, glory, and pride can all go hang—[ST:n ]give me drink, dice, and dozens of dames![ST:n ]I'll take whatever, so long as it's fun.[ST:wait ] |
50 |
|
qev050401_MSG0047 |
Starting today, I am joining human society and[ST:n ]doing what I will, when I will! So long, Wrothians![ST:n ]And good riddance![ST:wait ] |
51 |
|
qev050401_MSG0048 |
Fare well, [ST:playername ]![ST:n ]I shall see you back in New LA.[ST:wait ] |
52 |
|
qev050401_JNK0090 |
Approve |
53 |
|
qev050401_SEL0091 |
Let De Ezich go. |
54 |
|
qev050401_JNK0100 |
Scold |
55 |
|
qev050401_SEL0101 |
Lecture De Ezich for his disrespectful attitude. |
56 |
|
qev050401_MSG0049 |
Good-bye, stifling Wrothian culture![ST:n ]...Oh, and I shall pay you for your help once I make it[ST:n ]to the city, [ST:Gender p1=hero p2=heroine ]. Safe travels to you![ST:wait ] |
57 |
|
qev050401_MSG0050 |
Hmm? Where does this come from? And why are you,[ST:n ]a human, getting angry?[ST:wait ] |
58 |
|
qev050401_MSG0051 |
Life as a Wrothian must seem abnormally formal to[ST:n ]you, must it not?[ST:wait ] |
59 |
|
qev050401_MSG0052 |
...What?! It seems a lot more dignified than the[ST:n ]convenient fantasies of a twerp like me?![ST:wait ] |
60 |
|
qev050401_MSG0053 |
Blast! The whole point of this was to finally be rid of[ST:n ]all the lecturing. But you are no better than my parents![ST:wait ] |
61 |
|
qev050401_MSG0054 |
Traitorous dog! I'll beat you and TAKE my freedom![ST:n ]I'll prove that I can fight for myself![ST:wait ] |
62 |
|
qev050401_MSG0055 |
...You humans truly are amazing, running a city like[ST:n ]this just one wall away from a monster-infested[ST:n ]wilderness.[ST:wait ] |
63 |
|
qev050401_MSG0056 |
You all have a sense of purpose, yet you live free[ST:n ]and enjoy your own lives. I'm so very glad I escaped[ST:n ]that miserable cave.[ST:wait ] |
64 |
|
qev050401_JNK0110 |
Agree |
65 |
|
qev050401_SEL0111 |
Smile and tell De Ezich to enjoy the freedom. |
66 |
|
qev050401_JNK0120 |
Disagree |
67 |
|
qev050401_SEL0121 |
Tell De Ezich that life in NLA has its own struggles. |
68 |
|
qev050401_MSG0057 |
Ah, my favorite word! From here on out, I'll not live[ST:n ]my life for Ga Jiarg or the pride of the Wrothians.[ST:wait ] |
69 |
|
qev050401_MSG0058 |
I believe that, coming from you. You seem like you[ST:n ]have been through a lot. What has happened in this[ST:n ]fair city?[ST:wait ] |
70 |
|
qev050401_MSG0059 |
I still do not know much of what is beneath the surface[ST:n ]here, but I plan on learning all of it.[ST:wait ] |
71 |
|
qev050401_MSG0060 |
Still, the freedom cannot be beat! Here, life is about[ST:n ]more than Ga Jiarg or Wrothian pride.[ST:wait ] |
72 |
|
qev050401_MSG0061 |
I am finally going to live life for myself! Back home,[ST:n ]they would have torn into me for wanting that.[ST:n ]They'd call it shallow and feckless.[ST:wait ] |
73 |
|
qev050401_MSG0062 |
But I call it happiness! Whatever comes of it,[ST:n ]good or ill, I can accept it.[ST:wait ] |
74 |
|
qev050401_MSG0063 |
...Here. This is my thanks for all you've done.[ST:n ]It's no small sum, but I'm feeling flush with cash after[ST:n ]selling off my sword![ST:wait ] |
