Fajeth | Who are you and what are you doing here? | |
Me | I am traveling by order of Lord Hagen ... | |
Fajeth | Then you should try to reach the castle. That's where Commander Garond is. He is the chief commander of this expedition. | |
Fajeth | Where do you come from? | |
Me | I am here on behalf of Garond ... | |
Fajeth | Very good. I can certainly use new men. | |
Me | I am not here to assist you. | |
Fajeth | No? Then why did you come? | |
Me | My mission is to find out how much ore you have mined so far. | |
Fajeth | Honored magician. Your presence gives me and my men confidence. | |
Fajeth | It would certainly be helpful to us if you could use your Innos-given power for us. | |
Fajeth | And my mission is to do everything I deem necessary in order to mine the ore and protect it. | |
Fajeth | That includes the requisitioning of men. You are in the service of Innos - therefore you will follow my orders. | |
Fajeth | Listen - I don't know why Garond sent me a mercenary - but he must have a reason. | |
Fajeth | But before I send you back, you will carry out a mission for me. | |
Me | What can I do for you? | |
Fajeth | For days, a horde of snappers has been roaming around our camp. Looks like they're just waiting for a good opportunity to attack. | |
Fajeth | I don't know what they're waiting for - but as long as they're here, there's no peace to be had in the camp. | |
Fajeth | That Fed, above all the rest, is scared out of his mind - and driving the other convicts crazy. | |
Fajeth | So who should I send? Bilgot? Ha - he's a wreck, too. | |
Fajeth | And Tengron? Sure he can fight, but he lacks the necessary guile. | |
Fajeth | The only one who can do it is you. I want you to hunt down those damn beasts and kill them. | |
Me | My mission is more urgent than that. I can't help you. | |
Fajeth | Naturally, honored one. I will inform you about everything you wish to know. | |
Me | I already have an order, from Garond. | |
Fajeth | And you will carry it out. But only when I send you back. | |
Fajeth | All I want to hear from you now is, 'What can I do for you?' Understood? | |
Me | Everything has its price. If you can pay me, I might consider it. | |
Fajeth | I am not accustomed to doing business with mercenaries. I hate haggling for a better price. | |
Fajeth | But as a token of my good will, I'll pay you 100 gold pieces if you work for me. | |
Fajeth | Do we have an agreement? | |
Me | No, I've got no time to take care of your problem. | |
Fajeth | You're turning down easy money? I would never have expected that from a mercenary. | |
Fajeth | Since you don't want to help us, I suggest you ask your questions and then clear off again. | |
Me | I killed the leader of the pack. | |
Fajeth | Good. Without a leader, they're only half as dangerous. I don't think they'll attack us any more. | |
Fajeth | Here is your gold - as agreed. | |
Me | The snappers are done for. | |
Fajeth | Good job. We should be able to handle all the other beasts out there. | |
Fajeth | You have earned your gold - here are 100 gold pieces, as agreed. | |
Me | How's the morale of your men? | |
Fajeth | You want to know how my men's morale is? They can hardly work for fear! | |
Fajeth | Deal with these snappers, or someone's bound to crack! | |
Me | Tell me how much ore you have mined so far. | |
Fajeth | Report to Garond that so far we've only been able to mine TWO chests of ore. | |
Fajeth | I've already taken too many losses thanks to the constant attacks. | |
Fajeth | If Garond can send me more men, then we can mine more ore. | |
Me | I see. I'll let him know. | |
Fajeth | Good. Then the rest is up to you. We'll hold the position here for as long as we can. | |
Me | How's the ore production going? | |
Fajeth | Badly. We aren't making any progress. | |
Fajeth | When we first arrived, it went well - but since then, my boys have mined practically nothing but splinters. Nothing useable. | |
Fajeth | But we won't give up - at least not as long as I'm in command here. | |
Me | How's the ore mining going? | |
Fajeth | It has gotten quieter here. Why might that be? | |
Me | The dragons are dead. | |
Fajeth | Well, then I hope my relief comes soon. I'm slowly losing my mind here. | |
Fajeth | You can see that for yourself. Lousy. | |
