Girion | I am Girion, master of two-handed combat and paladin of the king. Why are you disturbing me? | |
Me | Can you train me? | |
Girion | You do well to train in the noblest of all combat styles. As is proper for a warrior of Innos. | |
Girion | I shall instruct you. Report to me when you are ready. | |
Girion | If you wish to learn something, you must turn to a teacher from outside of our order. | |
Girion | I am a warrior, not a teacher. | |
Me | I am ready to be trained. | |
Girion | Naturally, your education is not finished, but there is nothing more that I can teach you. | |
Girion | If you wish to improve your talent with the weapon further, you will have to seek out a true swordmaster. | |
Me | Where can I find such a man? | |
Girion | Lord Hagen is a swordmaster. He will certainly instruct you. | |
Girion | Fight with honor. Combat is our life - and what is your life without honor? | |
Girion | Be cautious and quick in combat. Surprise your opponent. | |
Girion | Never go into combat unprepared. You can never know if it is your last. | |
Girion | A paladin is always prepared for combat. But he never begins a fight he cannot win. | |
Girion | A paladin fights not only with the sword, but also with his mind. | |
Girion | You have to know the point up to which you can retreat. | |
Girion | Remember, you fight well if you control your opponent and don't give him a chance to be in control himself. | |
Girion | You have only lost when you have given up. | |
Girion | Hey! Can you tell me what you are doing here? | |
Me | I don't know what you're talking about. | |
Girion | I am talking about what you have worked out with the ship's guards up there. That stinks to high heaven. | |
Girion | Even if you are a magician, I still don't trust you. | |
Me | Get out of my way, or I'll have to kill you. | |
Girion | You may be able to deceive the ship's guard, but you will find me a tough nut to crack, my little friend. | |
Girion | Even if you are one of us, that does not give you the right to steal the king's property. Die, you damned traitor. | |
Girion | When we have finished this business, you will turn the ship back over to me, understood? | |
Me | I need the ship. So I will take it. | |
Girion | You cannot do that. The ore transport ... | |
Girion | How dare you, you stinking son of a ... | |
Me | The ore in the Valley of Mines is not enough to satisfy the king. I was there. There's nothing more to be had there. Hagen's mission is a farce. | |
Me | The real threat has its roots on an offshore island not far from here. I shall sail there and put an end to it. | |
Me | Either you join me, or I'll have to do away with you. It's your choice. | |
Girion | Mmh. It sounds as though I have no choice. | |
Me | Correct. | |
Girion | Well, all right. I shall join you, but only under one condition. | |
Me | I can live with that. | |
Girion | Then do what you must do. I shall wait here for you. | |
Girion | Traitor! | |
