Lucia

MeAnd? How's it going?
LuciaListen. If you want something to eat, go to Snaf. If you want something to drink, you're in the right place.
MeWhat do you drink here then?
LuciaWe only have a little beer. The only beer on the island was brought by the paladins.
LuciaJust about the only good thing those fellows brought with them...
LuciaOtherwise we drink booze. I've got moonshine, grog and white rum -
Lucia(appreciatively) hmmm... you should try THAT - I got the recipe from Samuel. The old boy really knows his trade.
MeAren't you from Khorinis?
LuciaDon't remind me! My life in that city was horrible.
LuciaWhile the ships with the new convicts kept coming in, there was still life in town.
LuciaBut all those other guys... (laughs) No thanks. Maybe it's because we're on an island... well, those days are over.
LuciaI'm finished with Elvrich!
MeWhy?
LuciaHe's a wimp! When the bandits dragged me off, he didn't lift a finger to help me.
MeWhat are you planning to do?
LuciaWe'll see. For now, I'll stay here with Snaf, Fisk and the others.
LuciaHave you already talked to Thorus? (rolls her eyes) Oh, Innos, is that a hunk of a man!
Lucia(laughs) Excuse me... let's get back to your question... I haven't set a goal, I'm only drifting.
MeYou're not very fond of the paladins, are you?
LuciaThose fanatical murderers in the pay of the Fire Magicians? No.
LuciaThat Lord Hagen occupies the city with his thugs, and everybody bows down to him.
LuciaAnd I didn't want to do that. I wasn't going to wait until they closed down the Red Lantern and locked me up.
MeThe paladins don't only fight in his name. Innos chooses his warriors.
LuciaSo? I believe it's the people who choose themselves.
LuciaStill, your words amaze me. You talk almost like you were one of them.
MeHave you ever killed someone?
LuciaNo, and I'm very glad of it.
LuciaPlease, let's not be so serious any more.
LuciaInstead, let's drink and enjoy every moment the gods give us.
MeDo you deny Innos then, wench?
LuciaHow could I? It's just people who misuse his name.
LuciaBut I never doubted Innos' divine splendor for a second.
MeThe paladins are the warriors of Innos. They aren't murderers.
LuciaSo? Blood sticks to their swords too - just like the weapons of the pirates or the bandits.
LuciaThe only difference is they do it in Innos' name and not because they want to survive.
LuciaNothing at all.
MeGive me something to drink.
MeCan you teach me something?
Lucia(laughs) Only too gladly. You can train your DEXTERITY with me.
MeI want to become more dexterous.
