Serpentes	(scolding) You dare to address me, novice? Return to your work.
Me	I've got one more question ...
Serpentes	(furiously) You do not seem to want to understand. I decide when I see fit to talk to you. Who do you think you are?
Serpentes	And now get back to work!
Serpentes	Your presence here demonstrates not only your lack of respect, but also your stupidity, novice!
Me	I heard that you passed the Test of Fire.
Serpentes	(smugly) In all humility, I can tell you this. Everyone else who has attempted this is dead.
Serpentes	(condescendingly) You really should not attempt to take this test. Your spirit is weak. Better to serve in the monastery and perhaps you will be chosen in a few years.
Me	I am going to pass the test.
Serpentes	If it is the will of Innos, then you shall. But if not - then you will fail.
Me	I am ready to face your test, Master.
Serpentes	So, you want to put yourself to the test. Only a courageous novice demands the test. But courage is not all that you need.
Serpentes	Are you clever enough to pass the test? Are you strong enough to meet the dangers that await you?
Serpentes	If not, you will pay for it with your life.
Serpentes	And now hear your test: In the Place of Stones, seek the one who was never born - find him who once was summoned.
Serpentes	Overcome the one who cannot be overcome - measure yourself against the living rock, fight with the undying stone - and destroy it.
Me	Living rock ... ? What kind of a creature would that be?
Serpentes	I have told you everything. (mockingly) Or do you find this test too difficult?
Serpentes	Now you will learn what it means to take the Test of Fire - I will answer no more of your questions.
Serpentes	(contemptibly) Go and carry out your task, novice!
Me	I have defeated the golem.
Serpentes	What? You have actually done it? But without the hammer of Innos, you would never have been able to destroy the golem.
Serpentes	(triumphantly) But now you have betrayed yourself! It was you who killed Garwig!
Serpentes	RECEIVE THE PUNISHMENT FOR THE MURDER OF A SERVANT OF INNOS!!!
Serpentes	(regretfully) Nevertheless, I must admit that you have fulfilled the task I have given you.
Serpentes	And I had best take the hammer myself.
Me	Is there anything else you want to tell me?
Serpentes	No. Not at the moment, Brother.
Serpentes	Dismissed. You know what you have to do.
Serpentes	Not so fast. I have another task for you.
Me	(sighs) And that is?
Serpentes	Now that you belong to the Brotherhood of Fire, you must also fulfill the duties that come with being one of us.
Serpentes	The church is not only concerned with the affairs of magic - it is also the final authority in the administration of justice, as you know.
Serpentes	The latest case brought before opens up a bottomless abyss and must be dealt with once and for all.
Serpentes	A mercenary for hire of your stripe could be of use to us in this matter.
Me	Isn't that the militia's business?
Serpentes	The militia is responsible for the city alone. This affair has farther-reaching consequences.
Me	I've got enough on my plate as it is. Go find somebody else.
Serpentes	(angrily) That is outrageous. You will never reach the upper circles of magic if you are not willing to do the Brotherhood a service.
Serpentes	I hereby reprimand you. I hope this will not happen again - else it will go badly with you.
Me	What's this about?
Serpentes	There is someone in the city who has sold falsified shares in the ore mines of the former penal colony.
Serpentes	These papers are utterly worthless and of no importance, really. Still, they have the potential of stirring up trouble among the people, which we cannot afford to happen right now.
Serpentes	The swindler is supposed to have approached all the most reputable traders in the city and the country, and has evidently even managed to sell his counterfeit mining shares to some of them.
Serpentes	Find this evildoer and bring him before this panel. In such hard times we must not suffer swindlers and plunderers.
Serpentes	We must make an example of him in order to deter the rest of the mob.
Me	I shall try to clear up the matter.
Serpentes	One thing more. When you visit those traders, do not let them know that you are looking for mining shares.
Serpentes	I think they probably want to sell them on and certainly would no longer offer them to you if they realized that you are dealing with them on behalf of the church, you see?
Me	Yes.
Serpentes	Then get to work. I wish you much success, Brother.
Me	Whom should I kill?
Serpentes	For Innos' sake. No one, of course. This business demands a bit more finesse, you rude lout.
Serpentes	Salandril, the alchemist from the upper end of town, is guilty of a serious crime and must be punished for it.
Serpentes	However, he has refused to come to the monastery to be judged. Bring him here.
Serpentes	How you accomplish this does not matter to us. You will, of course, be rewarded.
Me	No problem. I'll take care of it.
Serpentes	Good. We expect to hear from you in a few days.
Me	I've been able to retrieve a mining share.
Me	I've been able to retrieve a few mining shares.
Serpentes	Very good. You must remove them all from circulation. This is poison for the people. Bring them all to me.
Serpentes	Here. I will give you the necessary means.
Me	Those were all, I think.
Serpentes	Well done. You have earned a reward.
Serpentes	Take this protective amulet. It will help you along the paths you have yet to tread.
Serpentes	This is really the last one now, right?
Me	I know who brought those mining shares into circulation. Salandril did, the alchemist from the upper quarter of town.
Serpentes	Then bring him here. We have things to discuss with him.
Me	Salandril is here, in the monastery.
Serpentes	Well done. We shall deal with him later.
Serpentes	Here is your reward. And not another word about this, understood?
Me	Salandril is dead.
Serpentes	Well, then his deed has not gone unpunished. May Innos have mercy on his poor soul.
