| Me | What are you doing here? | |
| Pepe | (bored) Guarding sheep! (sighs) And if possible, staying out of trouble. | |
| Me | Doesn't always work, does it? | |
| Pepe | Nah, especially not with the mercenaries. I'm really glad to be out here on the pasture. Although that can be dangerous too. | |
| Me | What's so dangerous in the pasture? | |
| Pepe | There's a small pack of wolves that roams the area. Lately the damn beasts have come by and eaten one of my sheep almost every day. | |
| Pepe | A few days ago, I had almost twice as many sheep. I don't want to think what Onar will do to me when he finds out. | |
| Me | Why didn't you tell the mercenaries about the wolves? I thought they worked for you. | |
| Pepe | Yeah, I know. I should have done that. But I didn't, damnit. | |
| Pepe | And now, with so many sheep gone, I'm afraid to tell anyone about it at all. | |
| Me | But you just told ME ... | |
| Pepe | (irritated) I'm already regretting that, too. | |
| Me | What if I kill those wolves? | |
| Pepe | (mocking) You, by yourself? Ha ha. I don't believe it. I'd sooner trust my bellwether to do that. | |
| Me | Forget it. It was just a suggestion. I'll go over to the boys and see what THEY say about it ... | |
| Pepe | (scared) Wait a minute. Okay, okay! Ehm ... you're the greatest and you can take on a hundred wolves at once. No problem! | |
| Pepe | Mostly they lurk between the trees near the pasture. (incidentally) I think there were only four ... | |
| Me | I've done in the wolves. | |
| Pepe | (amazed) You did it! Thank Innos! | |
| Pepe | But now I still don't know how to tell Onar that all those sheep are gone. | |
| Pepe | (to himself) It's all that damn Bullco's fault! | |
| Pepe | I don't need you to make a fool out of me. The beasts aren't all dead. | |
| Me | What did you say about Bullco? | |
| Pepe | He's one of the mercenaries. It was actually his job to guard the pasture. | |
| Pepe | But instead he and his pal Sylvio hang around Thekla in the kitchen all day. | |
| Pepe | It's that bastard's fault if I don't get paid for weeks because of the lost sheep. | |
| Pepe | I wish I could at least punch him in the mouth for it. But nobody stands a chance against him. The guy's a killer. | |
| Me | Bullco got what was coming to him. I've taught him a lesson. | |
| Pepe | The swine deserved it. | |
| Me | How are you, and how are your sheep? | |
| Pepe | I'm fine. And so are the sheep. That is, the ones that are still here are doing all right. | |
| Pepe | Good. But the wolves are bound to come back some day. And then there will probably be more of them! | |
| Pepe | I heard the strangest things. Some sinister characters are said to have shown up at Sekob's. They're laying siege to his house. | |
| Pepe | I heard that some thugs have made themselves at home on Lobart's farm. Maybe someone should help him. | |
| Me | Can I buy a sheep? | |
| Pepe | Any time, if you can pay the price. A sheep will cost you 100 gold pieces. | |
| Pepe | If you pay, you can take a sheep. But you have to treat it well. | |
| Me | Here's 100 gold pieces. Give me a sheep, then. | |
| Pepe | Good. Then take Betsy - you'll find her in the pasture. | |
| Pepe | Just tell her she should follow you. She's pretty smart for a sheep. Treat her well! | |
| Pepe | Again? Okay. Take Betsy. | |
| Me | Betsy? But the last sheep was called Betsy ... | |
| Pepe | All the sheep are called Betsy. | |
| Pepe | Except for the rams, of course. | |
| Me | And what are they called? | |
| Pepe | Bruce. | |
| Pepe | You don't have that much gold. I can't give you a sheep for less. | |
