Code Geass 18. I Order you, Suzaku Kururugi The young Britannian Lelouch is faced with a choice between two divergent paths One leads to the past, in a quest to find his mother s enemies. The other way takes him to the future, where he will create a world in which his little sister Nunnally can live happily. Only Lelouch can choose which direction he will go. Will he follow the path that ends in destruction of the world, or will he travel the road to building a bright new one? STAGE 18 I ORDER YOU, SUZAKU KURURUGI We used to have trouble getting even a single motorcycle. Now we have a submarine. The military district of India will be in big trouble if the Britannians ever find out. How d she do it? Now then, due to our recent reorganization, a few changes have been made. Our new chief of military affairs will be Kyoshiro Tohdoh. Taking charge of all intelligence, espionage, and public relation matters, Diethard Reid. This Britannian pretty boy?! Not to mention, he s a media type. Zero, I m not a racist, but what s your reasoning for placing one of them in such a sensitive position? Reason? And what of me, I ask you? I m not Japanese either. You all know this. What matters is the ability to produce results. Who you are and where you re from are of little consequence. Alright, alright, already! My deputy commander will be Kaname Ohgi. Who, me? You object? Uh... no. Well, you were our leader to begin with, weren t you? A newbie can t take that job, right? And for research and development, Rakshata. Who else? Captain of the Zero Squad Kallen Kouzuki. The Zero Squad? An elite guard under my direct command. Think of yourselves as my personal force. An elite guard... Zero. Captain of the First Squad will be Shogo Asahina. Second Squad Ryouga Senba. Third Squad Kizuna Kagesaki. And Tamaki will lead the Second Special Forces. That is all. I m the man! There s no position for C. C.? Zero, may I add something? Hmm? There s one issue that still needs to be dealt with. Who cares if he s an honorary Britannian? Knighting an Eleven is just-- And broadcasting it live. How d he ever win her favor, I wonder. Well, even a princess has needs, right? Are they kidding?! No, this can t be happening! They re making him a major, an Eleven! Suzaku Kururugi. Wilt thou upon this day pledge thy fealty to Britannia and stand as a Knight of the Crown? Yes, Your Highness. Dost thou wish to abandon thyself and be sword and shield for the sake of the greater good? Yes, Your Highness. I, Euphemia li Britannia, do hereby dub thee Sir Suzaku Kururugi. So whose payroll is he on now? I believe Lloyd s already working on that. You mean... with him? Yes, well, it s not like I ve ever met him, of course. Suzaku Kururugi. He s become a focal point among Elevens who are Britannian supporters. I recommend he be assassinated. Assassinate him? He may be right. You ve been the focus of the resistance movement. The servile masses lack such a hero. People aren t moved by ideology alone, but the Britannians will hold this boy up as a symbol. I think that taking him out would be the smartest decision right now. I object. Hm? The Japanese would be revolted by such a cowardly act. Yeah, and the Black Knights are not in the business of killing the defenseless, either! What do you want us to do? Get him when he s alone and kill him straight out? Calm down. I m merely suggesting we minimize our risk in the most efficient way possible. But it s Zero s call, of course. What s so complicated? Just use your Geass on Kururugi. Drop it. So stubborn. Why not? Because he s your friend, or is it pride? ...All of it. You might have to kill him, otherwise... You haven t said anything about it yet. Appointing a knight is a privilege of royalty -- it s out of my hands, even as viceroy. Don t you see Suzaku Kururugi is an honorary Britannian, and he s proved himself more than worthy of knighthood. Sister, even you have to-- It s viceroy. Viceroy, even you must know that he s deserving. Discrimination against the Numbers is our national policy. Then it s time I tried to change that! Oh, is it now, Sub-Viceroy? Well, when you become empress, feel free to do so! Construction of the Thought Elevator is proceeding as scheduled. Yes, I understand. What? Schneizel? Yes, Majesty. Your orders? You needn t interfere. If he is that sure of himself, let him challenge me. Okay guys, time to raise a glass to Kururugi here! Valued member of the student council and a knight of the realm! Now let s get this party started, huh? Congratulations! You have Nunnally to thank for all of this. I m sure you re tired of the celebrations. If you don t mind, we wanna honor you too! Not at all! It s really kind of you. Oh... what am I gonna do? Princess Euphemia... Good afternoon Have you seen Maj. Kururugi? They said I could find him here... Hmm? Oooh! Looks like you re working on some fun stuff! You know what it is? Oh, I can tell uranium isotope when I see one. Wow, you know your stuff! And if you can get that uranium to absorb active neutrons, then it should split into high-speed neutrons and atomic nuclei. The problem is you need to fuel the reaction with U-235, which only makes up 0.7 percent of all natural uranium. So even if we came up with some means of induce fission, we d never have enough raw materials. That s why-- Hey Prez, where s Nina? I told her to be here. Oh hey, Kallen! Can you help me set out more pizza? Hey! Are you listening? This is for Zero, Kallen. If you don t do it here... Hey, I think Shirley wants you to give her a hand. I m sorry, but I m right in the middle of something at the moment. What are you doing? Maybe I can help out. Hey. I m sorry. I got held up. Huh? No problem! I m just happy you could be here. Hey, what did you want to talk about? You ve said it was kind of important, right? Oh... yeah... Just forget it. Huh? Bad news, Suzaku! You just got even more work to do, I m afraid. Oh, right... You know him? He is my boss. Lloyd, is something wrong? Oh, do you guys know each other? We are to be married. Huh? What?! Isn t that right, honey bunch? Uh... yeah... Secret s out. So you knew? Mm-hmm. Whoa! Whoa! What s going on here?! Who is this guy? Earl Asplund. EARL?! It s an honor, your lordship. Now, what did you say your relationship was again? She and I are betrothed. NOOOOO!!! You were serious then? So... do I have military duties then? Yes, an important someone and others are arriving by boat. We re off to meet him. Along with the Lancelot and Princess Euphemia, naturally. Why Shikine Island? The Tokyo Settlement would ve been a lot safer. Yes, I m curious about that myself. Wha--?! You re saying you don t know either? Ditto. Huh? You still shouldn t have said anything. After all, your loose lips got our plans leaked onto the Net. That girl was so charming, though. I couldn t resist. Euphemia is going to that island to meet a noble from their homeland. Her knight Suzaku Kururugi will be accompanying her. That far out at sea, the enemy s strength will be limited. It is a golden opportunity. Our objective is the capture of the Lancelot and Suzaku Kururugi. Once we ve won the battle, I want Kururugi taken safely into custody. So, what happens after we got him? Don t worry. Just leave that to me. That s our spot, huh? You suppose it s going to work? I think we ll be fine. The stealth effect we get as a byproduct seems to be working. How can you tell? The Britannians haven t found us, have they? What s that tell you? Oh, I see. You re right! It is just a first step, though. Diethard, what did you talk Kallen into doing? I told her to dig up what she could on Kururugi. Maybe I implied a little more than that. Don t overstep your bounds. I don t recall ordering his assassination. You want us to be the hammer of justice, right? We can t have people thinking about us as cold-blooded killers, I know. But we can hide the truth using the media. You can t change the world without getting your hands dirty. Am I wrong? Diethard... what are you really after? You may have been demoted, but you re still a Britannian. You don t need to join the Black Knights to change the world, do you? I never mentioned this, but the first time I ever saw you was the night you rescued Kururugi... and I trembled! It was like a new era had taken form and appeared before me! I wish to document you, Zero. As you build your organization and topple over the empire then take this world for your own! I wish to be there, documenting history as it s created! Nothing has ever made my heart dance more! Documenting? You re right in the thick of it. I d say you re fabricating history. Objectivity is a fairy tale. In the end, journalism is a product of the human mind, like everything else. You re not to interfere with military matters. Yes, of course. Arrival time s right on schedule. We ve prepared a room for you back at headquarters if you care to wait there. Is it safe to assume that the ship is docking here? Yes, that hasn t changed. This will do fine then. Very well, I ll just arrange for an escort. Huh? Terrorists? But how did they get here?! First Squad, continue advancing! Zero Squad, I want you covering them from their flank! Filthy Elevens! She sure packs a punch, huh? Impressive. It s no wonder Tohdoh held off the Britannians once before without a single Knightmare. Now I only have to wait for Euphemia to receive word of our visit. Headquarters appears to be under some sort of attack! Huh? We ll withdraw to the settlement. Can you arrange an escort unit for her? It s too risky to leave right now. They re jamming us with some kind of wide-range interference. You re going to be fine. Don t worry, Princess. I won t let any harm come to you. No, Suzaku, you should help these men fend off the attack. Huh? But Sub-Viceroy, he is an honorary Britannian! We re almost certainly dealing with the Black Knights here. What if he turns the Lancelot against us?! Uh, you do realize you re criticizing a member of royalty, right? Oh... uh... forgive me. I didn t mean to... Kururugi, demonstrate your valor for us today so that we may finally silence all these naysayers. Right! Worthless garrison unit! I ll finish the job! Huh?! Ah! Zero, there you are. That s right, Suzaku! Come! Confirming target. All units, assume formation three and fall back. Do not fire on the target! I repeat do not fire! Yes, thanks to the Special Corps. Wha--? But that would mean...! Yes, Your Highness! He s not equipped for that sand he jumped into. Could he be drawing me into a setup... using himself as bait? Fine then! Zero! I got you...! ...right where...! ...I want you. What the--?! It s frozen?! No good! We need to talk, Kururugi! I suggest you come out! Your secondary system should still be functioning. You ll be treated as a prisoner under international law. Of course, If you don t care to talk, we could just gun you down. I don t care! Tell Suzaku to abandon the unit! What could possibly be wrong with it? How come it won t move?! Something s happened to the Sakuradite that s powering Suzaku s Lancelot! Somebody s interfering with it! A Gefjun Disturber. You mean--! But they re actually using it as a jamming mechanism. I thought it was only theoretical... What a fool I am. It really is you, Rakshata? It looks like the range and endurance still need a little work. I II get straight to the point, Suzaku Kururugi I want you to join me. Is that a threat? Well, you can forget it! I already told you. Results gained through contemptible means are worthless to me! So, you wouldn t describe the peace we have now as worthless? If Japan had resisted to its very last breath seven years ago, what do you think would ve happened? The Chinese and the E.U. would ve stepped in and split Japan in three. They d be fighting even now. Our current peace is the result of Japan s immediate and unconditional surrender. That s right, and I ve been fighting to preserve my father s peace ever since it began! You re wrong. Prime Minister Kururugi, elected by the people, didn t choose surrender. That decision was selfishly made by his killer. With the government thrown into chaos, surrender became the only logical choice. The will of the people was stolen from them... by a lone criminal pursuing his own selfish agenda! Can you hear them at all? There s too much static on the mic! How on Earth do you know that...? There s only one way for you to atone now. Huh? Present the Japanese people with the choice they weren t able to make then. The path they were robbed of seven years ago! Fighting Britannia! Fighting them? That again? It s an option worth exploring. Or would you rather drag the masses towards a future dictated by your own egotism? You call that peace? Do you read me? Maj. Kururugi! Please respond! May I? As you wish. This is Lt. Colonel Fayer, commander here on Shikine Island! We re launching surface-to-surface missiles against the terrorists! Maj. Kururugi, your orders are to keep Zero there! They re giving him up to die! K--Kururugi, what are you--?! I can t approve of your methods! All I can do right now is this! Why, you little...! Don t move! The field will affect you too! But Zero...! We re assigning Portman here to escort them. The sub-viceroy should be taken out of the-- Wait! You re going to destroy the Lancelot?! Kururugi is holding Zero there. This is our chance to kill him! And whose idea was this?! Maj. Kururugi is my personal knight! It was a para-level one order. It can only be countermanded by the consensus of at least three ranking generals or the viceroy herself, I m afraid. Then who exactly issued this order, Captain?! Get me a line to them immediately! Para-level one order, Princess Euphemia. Out of my way! Sub-Viceroy! Contact the base! Tell them there s a chance I ll be caught in the attack! See if they ll initiate their launch then! Please, stop this! Think what you re doing! But they ll stop with the princess out there... I m not sure they will, unfortunately. Incoming missiles, confirmed! Damn! Hold on, I m coming! Dammit! You re gonna die here as well! You don t have a problem with that?! Your sacrifice isn t in vain, Major. We are about to put an end to the most dangerous criminal our homeland has ever known! They ll speak of your bravery for generations to come! SHUT UP! All Knightmares, target on those missiles and throw up a barrage! Empty your guns if you have to! Suzaku, let Zero go! It s me! Suzaku, it s Kallen Stadtfeld from the student council! Look at me! Suzaku, you can t die now! A soldier must always follow his orders! Humph! Certainly easier than following your own heart! How do you feel about this?! You re wrong! I have rules that I made and need to live by-- uh. They completed a float system? Well, I m outdone. That s... my brother s Avalon! No, it can t be! Dammit, Suzaku, do something! You re going to die! Better that than breaking the rules! You stubborn fool! My Geass is the power to command others. None can disobey. Those I turn it on find their ethics, their thoughts, and their feelings crushed beneath its power. And knowing all of that I used it... on Suzaku.

[THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER] warns you not to meddle in his affairs. 俺は俺の好きな相手となら誰だろうと取引するんだ！お前に少しでも知恵があれば、正しい選択をするだろう・・・さもなければその首が落ちることになるぞ・・・ [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER]は、彼のすることに首を突っ込まないよう警告している。 Kontor Meldungen If you snoop round here again, you can start looking for a nice place for your watery grave... またこの辺りをかぎまわったら、お前の水葬にいい場所を探させてやる・・・ [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER] has nothing to discuss with you. [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER]はあなたと話し合うつもりは無い。 I won t haggle over these children with you! They were part of a deal, and they belong to me! 俺はガキどもについてお前と話し合うつもりは無い！こいつらは取引の一部だ。よって俺のものだ！ [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER] is unwilling to talk to you about the children! [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER]はあなたと子供たちについて話し合うつもりは無い！ You really want to take me on? Hassan ben Sahid has never lost a battle! 本当に俺とやるつもりか？Hassan ben Sahidは戦いに負けたことが無いのだぞ！ Confident of victory, [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER] asserts that you will be defeated in battle. 勝利の自信から、[THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER]は戦闘に破れるのはあなただと断言した。 You were damned lucky to send one of my Ships to the bottom of the Sea. That won t happen again! 俺の船の一隻を海の底に沈めたのは、まったく幸運だったな。しかし二度目は無い！ [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER] is extremely angry that you have sunk one of his Ships. [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER]は、あなたが彼の船の一隻を沈めたことにかなり激怒している。 Bergwerk I m in charge here! And the way I see it, what goes on in my Mine concerns no one but the Sultan and the Grand vizier... 俺はここの責任者だ！それに俺が知る限り、俺の鉱山に関わりがあるのはスルタンと宰相だけだ・・・。 A bad-tempered [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER] sends you on your way. 機嫌の悪い[THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER]は、あなたを追い返した。 It s not unusual even for very young children to help secure a living for their families. How was I supposed to know that these children were kidnap victims?! 幼い子供たちを、家族と生活できるよう手助けするのは当たり前のことだ。なんで俺が、この子供たちが誘拐の犠牲者だなんて知っているというんだ？ The [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER] protests that he did not realise the children had been kidnapped. [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER]は、子供たちが誘拐されたとは分からなかったと言い張っている。 Al Zahir I don t care if the Storm blew you here or if you are part of the Occidental fleet that recently passed through these waters... You have entered the honourable Sultan s realm without permission! 君が嵐に吹かれようが、最近この海を通り過ぎた西洋の艦隊の一員であろうが、私の知ったことではない。 [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER] suspiciously acknowledges your arrival. [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER]は、あなたの到着を疑わしげに認識している。 I am sorry, but there will be no Trading between us until I m sure you can be trusted. すまないが、君の事を信用できると確認するまでは、君と取引するつもりは無い。 [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER] is not willing to trade with you yet. [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER]はあなたと取引するつもりは無い。 What a remarkable effort you made for those orphans... Quite remarkable... あの子供たちのためにどれだけ大変な努力をしたんだ・・・。とても大変だ・・・。 [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER] notices your dedication to rescuing the children. [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER]は、あなたの子供たちの救出への努力について述べている。 You care for those children as if they were your own. Only the good act in this way... Please excuse my initial mistrust... 君はあの子供たちを、まるで自分の子のように心配している。これはとても良い行いだ・・・。初めに不審の目で見たことは、どうか容赦して欲しい・・・。 An appreciative [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER] notices how hard you worked to rescue the children. 嬉しそうな[THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER]は、子供たちの救出にどれだけ働いたか述べている。 When that blonde Military commander and her Occidental fleet passed through these waters, I suspected we would suffer great misfortune. I have been praying to Allah ever since that he will spare us from War. 金髪の軍司令官と、彼女の西洋艦隊がこの海を通り過ぎたとき、大変な災難をこうむるのではないかと心配した。そのとき以来ずっと、戦争を避けられるよう、アラーに祈っている。 [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER] remembers that [GUIDNAME 1645006] and the Crusader fleet recently passed through the region without the Sultan s permission. [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER]は、[GUIDNAME 1645006]と十字軍艦隊が、スルタンの許可なしにこの地域を通り過ぎた時のことを話している。 So this is how you value gifts in your homeland... 君の国では贈り物をそんな風に扱うのか・・・。 [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER] is stunned to see that you have lost the Ship he gave you as a gift. [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER]は、あなたに与えた船が失われたのを知って愕然としている。 Karawanserei Pardon me, I don t want to be impolite, but... I have only just recently upgraded this Caravanserai. There is still so much to do; I have no time for idle chatter... すみません、失礼なことは言いたくないのですが、でも・・・このキャラバン宿を最近拡張したばかりでして。まだやることがたくさんあるんです。で、むだなおしゃべりをしている時間は無いんです・・・。 [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER] is too busy to talk to you. [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER]は忙しくてあなたと話している暇は無い。 I saw a Ship in Hassan ben Sahid s Harbour a few days ago... The same construction as your Ships... There was a man in dark clothes, obviously the leader, who appeared to be negotiating with the Corsairs... I just thought you should know... 数日前にHassan ben Sahidの港で船を見ました・・・。あなたの船と同じ作りです・・・。黒っぽい服を着た、明らかにリーダーらしき男が現れ、海賊と交渉していました・・・。私はただあなたが知っているのではと思ったので・・・。 [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER] claims to have seen an Occidental Ship anchored in the Corsairs Harbour some time ago. [THIRDPARTY_SENDER_PLAYER]は、少し前に海賊の港で西洋の船が停泊しているのを見たと主張している。

【Tags H Len tF tT Yuuyu-P】 Original Music Title 飛雷震 English music title Flying Trembling Thunder / Flying Thunder Trembles Romaji music title Hiraishin Music Lyrics written, Voice edited by ゆうゆP(Yuuyu-P) Music arranged by ゆうゆP(Yuuyu-P) Singer 鏡音レン (Kagamine Len) Click here for the original Japanese Lyrics English Lyrics (translated by animeyay)： The deceitful sky sneers tauntingly at me. The apologies have overflown as I cast my eyes down and become intoxicated drowning in the sweet honey. These lines are repeated over and over "I can still do it!" "Haven t you had enough yet?" Even my two conflicting minds are being distorted and erased. The returning sun rises upside-down, shining my road of return behind me bright. If there is nothing there, then look, a dead end. Farewell, farewell, the "me" I loved. Now, lock up your memories. It s bitter and painful, in the end of this darkness, so please embrace me as I can t stop shaking. Plans and daydreams will only lead to an answer of "zero". The whirls of uneasiness and delusions are still connected to a lock. The waning dark moon is fading away, while ahead two rains fall back-to-back at 3 am. If something is right there, then I want to go there, too. As I wept quietly alone, the "I" from that day softly pushed me in my back. Farewell, farewell, the "me" I loved. Now you have started running. Cry not, cry not, the "me" I love. I will never let you feel alone anymore. Farewell, farewell, the "me" I loved. Now, let me end right here right now. Like the thunders flying over the world, let us tremble. English Lyrics (translated by pinknives)： The deceitful sky left me behind, laughing at me. An apology fills my downcast eyes, drunk with sweet nectar. The words repeat, "But, I can do it!", "Have you had enough yet?". Even my conflicting minds are drowning in distortion. On my way to return, the sun vividly rises again in reverse. If there s nothing more ahead, look, it s a dead end. Goodbye, goodbye to the me I loved. Now, confine the memories. It hurts in the end of this painful darkness. Embrace me as I shiver. Plans and fantasies lead to an answer of zero. The vortex of fear and paranoia is still chained to me. As two separate rains fall at 3am, the black moon is starting to fade. If something is there, then I ll be there. As I tried to hush my crying voice, the me from that day gave my back a soft push. Goodbye, goodbye to the me I loved. Now, you re speeding. Don t cry, don t cry, the me I love. I m not alone anymore. Goodbye, goodbye to the me I loved. Now, let me finish this. Diving into the world like the thunder, let us tremble.

I have led a number of workshops at previous feminist events, mostly ladyfests. These have been on self harm, sexual abuse and mental health. Mental health was my most recent one, at Ladyfest Brighton, and it was well received. I was only able to pick one workshop from this list, but I would also be interested in the topics of Trauma support the Icarus project, Mental Health Nutrition (trained as a nutritionist once, however this was a while ago and Im not 100% confident) Child Abuse. In terms of my ideas for these workshops I simply feel that it is really important to build feminist-based support systems outside of the NHS, as the NHS is currently failing a lot of people. These workshops could be a valuable move towards that. But I can put together something more concise than that given time, thats just where Im coming from. Please contact me with any further info. Thanks, Emma i have several ideas of discussions i could facilitate and am in contact with 2 other people who are doing workshops in this area - some of them we can work together on. if anyone else volunteers it d b good to compare ideas. i ll send a description when i ve worked one out. please note i d much rather not have my name included on the website. mental health and nutrition no facilitator yet - use form at top of page if you would like to be involved midwifery skillshare possible facilitators Corinne possible descriptions keeping our bodies healthy for pregnancy, positive birthing, biological parenting of new babies, breastfeeding Migraines and headaches no facilitator yet - use form at top of page if you would like to be involved mobile phones /modern communications implications no facilitator yet - use form at top of page if you would like to be involved negotioating safer sex no facilitator yet - use form at top of page if you would like to be involved no borders no facilitator yet - use form at top of page if you would like to be involved nutrition - skillshare and discussion possible facilitators Suz Evasdaughter possible descriptions 1.

I was merely going to say that you look a bit down on your luck. str_npc8_intro_response_1|Merely to pass the time of day, ma'am, if you're not otherwise engaged. str_npc9_intro_response_1|You must have me confused with the tavernkeep, sir. str_npc10_intro_response_1|Why do you say that, sir? str_npc11_intro_response_1|What's the occasion? str_npc12_intro_response_1|How is that? str_npc13_intro_response_1|Um... I don't think so. str_npc14_intro_response_1|To pass the time of day with a fellow traveller, if you permit. str_npc15_intro_response_1|I am. What concern is it of your, may I ask? str_npc16_intro_response_1|I could be. What's your story? str_npc1_intro_response_2|Step back, sir, and keep your hand away from my purse. str_npc2_intro_response_2|I have better things to do. str_npc3_intro_response_2|Run along now, girl. I have work to do. str_npc4_intro_response_2|Eh? No thanks, we don't want any. str_npc5_intro_response_2|I have no time for that. str_npc6_intro_response_2|No doubt. Well, good luck getting found. str_npc7_intro_response_2|Right. I'll not bother you, then. str_npc8_intro_response_2|Nothing at all, from one so clearly disinclined to pleasantries. Good day to you. str_npc9_intro_response_2|Fetch it yourself! str_npc10_intro_response_2|That's rebel talk, and I'll hear none of it. Good day to you. str_npc11_intro_response_2|I think not, madame. str_npc12_intro_response_2|Sorry, I am afraid that I am otherwise engaged right now. str_npc13_intro_response_2|No, and I can't say that I much want to make your acquaintance. str_npc14_intro_response_2|Nothing at all. My apologies. str_npc15_intro_response_2|I'd be obliged if you minded your own business, sir. str_npc16_intro_response_2|Mind your own business, lass. str_npc1_backstory_a|Well, {sir/madame}, it's a long story... str_npc2_backstory_a|It's a tragic tale, sir. str_npc3_backstory_a|A good question, and I shall tell you! str_npc4_backstory_a|Really? Well, perhaps your ignorance can be forgiven. Our ancestral lands are far away, over the mountains. str_npc5_backstory_a|I am Baheshtur, son of Azabei, grandson of Badzan. Were you not a barbarian, you would likely know from my lineage that I am a Roan Horse Khergit of the highlands, of the tribe of Shamir, of the clan of Dulam, of the family of Ubayn, from the Pantash valley, and you might be able to guess why I am so far from home. str_npc6_backstory_a|I have commited the greatest of sins, {sir/madame}, and it is to my shame that I must appoint you my confessor, if you should like to hear it. str_npc7_backstory_a|My luck? You could say that. str_npc8_backstory_a|Ah. Well, if you must know, I shall tell you. str_npc9_backstory_a|My most humble apologies. It is sometimes hard to recognize folk amid the smoke and gloom here. I still cannot believe that I must make my home in such a place. str_npc10_backstory_a|It's a long story, but if you get yourself a drink, I'll be glad to tell it. str_npc11_backstory_a|Why, I managed to sell my wagon and pots, {lad/lass}. For once I've got money to spend and I intend to make the best of it. str_npc12_backstory_a|I shall tell you -- but know that it is a tale of gross iniquity. I warn you in advance, lest you are of a choleric temperament, and so become incensed at the injustice done unto me that you do yourself a mischief. str_npc13_backstory_a|You have not? Then perhaps you will have heard of my steed, who cuts across the Calradian plains like a beam of moonlight? Or of my sword, a connoisseur of the blood of the highest-born princes of the land? str_npc14_backstory_a|Very well. I do not mind. My name is Lazalit. str_npc15_backstory_a|I'm an engineer, specialized in the art of fortification. If you need a wall knocked down, I can do that, given enough time. If you need a wall built back up, I can do that too, although it will take longer and cost you more. And you can't cut costs, either, unless you want your new edifice coming down underneath you, as someone around here has just found out. str_npc16_backstory_a|Well, {sir/madame}, as long as I can remember I've had a weakness for pretty things, and it's gotten me into trouble, you see. str_npc1_backstory_b|I had a bit of a misunderstanding {s19}in {s20} about a horse that I found tied up outside the inn. It was the spitting image of a beast that threw me a few days back and ran off. Naturally I untied it for a closer look. As it turns out, the horse belonged to a merchant, a pinch-faced old goat who wouldn't accept that it all was a simple misunderstanding, and went off to get the guard. str_npc2_backstory_b|A while back, I left Geroia with a caravan of goods. I was hoping to sell it all in Sargoth and make a hefty sum. But, what do you know... we were ambushed by a party of Khergit raiders who rode away with most of the horses and goods. And two days later, my own caravan guards ran away with the rest of what I had. str_npc3_backstory_b|My father, a well-known merchant {s19}in {s20}, decided that I should be married to one of his business partners, a man well past the age of 30. I have been an obedient daughter all of my life, but it was a ridiculous and horrid proposition. So I ran away! str_npc4_backstory_b|Like all the men of my family, I have come to a foreign land to make a name for myself in the profession of arms before returning home to take over custodianship of my estates. Unfortunately, the authorities in these lands have little understanding of the warrior code, and have chosen to call me a bandit and brigand, and put a price on my head -- a most unfair libel to throw at a gentleman adventurer, you will surely agree. str_npc5_backstory_b|For as long as any one can remember, our people have feuded with the tribe of Humyan, many of whom have settled in the next valley over. Many men have died in this feud, on both sides, including two of my brothers. The Khan himself has ordered us to cease, to save men for the wars in Calradia. But I know my rights, and my brothers' blood cries out for vengeance. I waylaid and killed a Humyan on a track over the mountains, and I rode out of our village the same night, without even having had the chance to bid farewell to my father. I will bide my time in Calradia, for a year or two, then return home when the Khan's men have forgotten. The Humyan will not forget, of course, but such is the price of honour. str_npc6_backstory_b|I was a captain of horse in the service of the lord {s19}in {s20}, and my brother served with me. But we were both in love with the same woman, a courtesan -- a temptress, who played upon our jealousies! My brother and I quarreled. I had drunk too much. He slapped me with his glove, and I spit him upon my sword... My own brother! My sword-arm was stained with the blood of my kin! str_npc7_backstory_b|It was my bad luck to be born to a weak father who married me off to a drunken layabout who beat me. It was my bad luck, when I ran away from my husband, to be taken by a group of bandits. It was my bad luck that the only one among them who was kind to me, who taught me to hunt and to fight, inspired the jealousy of the others, who knifed him and forced me to run away again. str_npc8_backstory_b|I am from an old family in the northern lands, the daughter of a thane and also wife to one. I fought by my husband's side, his partner both in war and in peace. But my husband died of the plague, when I was still childless. My husband had decreed that I should inherit his lands, in the absence of an heir. My brother-in-law, cursed be his name, said that it was not our custom that women could inherit a thanedom. That was nonsense, but his gold bought the loyalties of enough of my husband's faithless servants for him to install himself in my hall. So I fled, something I was raised never to do, and something I hope never to do again. str_npc9_backstory_b|I was my father's first son, and his heir. But my mother died, and my father remarried. His new wife thought that her son should inherit. She could not move against me openly, but the other day I fed a pot of suet that had been left out for me to one of my hounds, and it keeled over. I accused my stepmother, but my father, befuddled by her witchcraft, refused to believe me and ordered me to leave his sight. str_npc10_backstory_b|A sergeant I was, in the garrison {s19} at {s20}. Twenty years I stood guard for the city, taking many a hard knock in many a tough fight, until they appointed a snot-nosed, downy-lipped princeling, barely out of his mother's cradle, as commander of the garrison. He came upon me standing watch atop the tower, with my crossbow unstrung -- on account of the rain, you see... Can't have the cord loosen... But Little Prince Snot-Nose tells me that an unstrung bow is dereliction of duty. Says he'll have me horsewhipped. And something in me snapped. So I walked off my post. str_npc11_backstory_b|For 30 years I followed the armies of this land, selling them victuals and drink, watching their games of dice and finding them girls, and nary a denar was left in my purse at the end. str_npc12_backstory_b|I am by training a natural philosopher, but condemned by the jealousy of the thick-headed doctors of my university to make my living as an itinerant surgeon. I was hired by a merchant of this city to cure his son, who fell into a coma after a fall from his balcony. I successfully trepanned the patient's skull to reduce the cranial swelling, but the family ignored my advice to treat the ensuing fevers with a tincture of willow bark, and the boy died. The father, rather than reward me for my efforts, charged me with sorcery -- me, a philosopher of nature! Such is the ignorance and ingratitude of mankind. str_npc13_backstory_b|I am a warrior by profession. But perhaps you may also have heard of my prowess as a poet, who can move the iciest of maidens to swoon. Or of my prowess in the art of the bedchamber, in which I must confess a modest degree of skill. I confess a modest affection for Calradia, and for the past several years have visited its towns, castles, and villages, making the most of my talents. str_npc14_backstory_b|I am the second son of the count of Geroia, of whom you have no doubt heard. Having no inheritance of my own, I came here to seek my fortune in Calradia, training men in the art of battle. Unfortunately, the lord here in {s20} has no taste for the disciplinary methods needed to turn rabble into soldiers. I told him it was wiser to flog them now, then bury them later. But he would not listen, and I was told to take my services elsewhere. str_npc15_backstory_b|The castellan {s19}in {s20} wanted a new tower added to the wall. Trouble is, he ran out of cash halfway through the process, before I could complete the supports. I told him that it would collapse, and it did. Unfortunately he was standing on it, at the time. The new castellan didn't feel like honouring his predecessor's debts and implied that I might find myself charged with murder if I push the point. str_npc16_backstory_b|I grew up in Malayurg castle as a bonded servant, working alongside my mother in the kitchens. I would amuse myself by hunting mice through the pantries and sculleries. I was so good at it that I put the castle cats out of a job, and eventually the lord realized that I might also be employed to track down bigger game, on certain errands of a type perhaps better left unsaid. Needless to say, I found a number of opportunities to avail myself of trinkets that had formerly belonged to my lord's enemies. So I was able to buy myself out of bondage, and find hire as a free agent. My last job was {s19}in {s20}. str_npc1_backstory_c|But if I was with a larger group who could vouch for me, they might let it pass. I'd be very grateful to you. str_npc2_backstory_c|So here I am, no money and no way home. str_npc3_backstory_c|I shall marry whom I want, when I want. Moreover, regardless of what my father might think, I am perfectly capable of taking care of myself. I was thinking that I should perhaps join a band of gypsies, or perhaps a troop of mercenaries! str_npc4_backstory_c|But I am anxious to avoid any further trouble, so if you knew of any company of fighting men where I might enlist, I would be most grateful. str_npc5_backstory_c|In the meantime, any opportunities to earn a living with my sword would be most welcome. str_npc6_backstory_c|Do you believe there is hope for a man like me? Can I find the path of righteousness, or am I doomed to follow the demons that dwell inside of me? str_npc7_backstory_c|But I do not count myself unlucky, stranger, no more than any other woman of Calradia, this fetid backwater, this dungheap among the nations, populated by apes and jackals. str_npc8_backstory_c|When I have enough gold to raise an army I shall go back and take what it is mine. str_npc9_backstory_c|I hope to offer my sword to some worthy captain, as it is the only honourable profession for a man of my birth apart from owning land, but in the meantime I am condemned to make my bed among thieves, vagabonds, merchants, and the other riff-raff of the road. str_npc10_backstory_c|Now I'm here getting drunk, and the Devil take tomorrow. str_npc11_backstory_c|It's no kind of life, victualling the armies. You earn a bit here and a bit there as the soldiers spend their money, and then along comes one defeat and you have to start over, endebting yourself to buy a new wagon and new oxen. So I've decided to get out of the business, but army life is all I know. str_npc12_backstory_c|The lord of this castle is reluctant to place me under arrest, but I am anxious to move on elsewhere. str_npc13_backstory_c|Which reminds me -- somewhere out there in the city is a rather irate husband. I don't suppose you might consider helping me leave town? str_npc14_backstory_c|So, if you know of any commander who believes that his purpose is to win battles, rather than pamper his soldiers, I would be pleased if you directed me to him. str_npc15_backstory_c|More fool me for having taken the contract without an advance, I suppose, but the end of it all is that I'm in a difficult spot, with the roads full of bandits and no money to pay for an escort. So I'd be much obliged if a well-armed party heading out in the next few days could take me along. str_npc16_backstory_c|Unfortunately, my last employer's wife had a lovely amulet, of a kind I simply could not resist. She doesn't know it's missing, yet, but she might soon. So tell me, are you looking for helpers? str_npc1_backstory_later|I've been here and about, you know, doing my best to keep out of trouble. I'm desperately in need of work, however. str_npc2_backstory_later|I sold my boots and have managed to make a few denars peddling goods from town to town, but it's a hard living. str_npc3_backstory_later|I hired myself on as a cook for some passing caravans, and that at least keeps me fed. But it is rough company on the road, and I grow weary of fighting off guards and others who would try to take liberties. I was thinking that if I could find work as a warrior, men would know to leave me alone. str_npc4_backstory_later|I went back to my ancestral barony, to inspect my lands. But we had locusts, you see, and bad rains, and other things, so here I am again, looking for work. str_npc5_backstory_later|I've been wandering through this war-torn land, looking for a leader who is worth following. str_npc6_backstory_later|I have been wandering Calradia, but have yet to find redemption. str_npc7_backstory_later|I have been wandering, looking for work as a tracker, but it has not been easy. Calradians are mostly ill-bred, lice-ridden, and ignorant, and it is not easy to work with such people. str_npc8_backstory_later|I am still seeking a war leader in whose shield wall I would fight. But I need gold, and fast, and the lords of this land as often as not prefer to stay behind the walls of their fortresses, rather march out to where glory and riches can be won. str_npc9_backstory_later|I've offered my sword to a few lords in these parts. But I find as often as not they'll ask me to run messages, or train peasants, or some other job not fit for a gentleman. str_npc10_backstory_later|I don't know if I told you or not, but I deserted my unit after I struck a young noble who had ordered me to be horsewhipped without cause. Since then I've been laying low. Thankfully I had the wit to pilfer my captain's purse before heading out, but the money is running low. str_npc11_backstory_later|I've been around and about. But it's a rare captain who'll take on an old bag of bones like me as a fighter, even if I could whip half the boys in his outfit. str_npc12_backstory_later|I have been here and about, tending to the sick and taking what reward I can. But the people of these parts are ignorant, and have little respect for my craft. The few denars I make are barely enough for me to replenish my stock of medicine. I should be grateful for the chance to find other work. str_npc13_backstory_later|I have been wandering through the cities of Calradia, leaving a string of love-sick women and cuckolded husbands in my wake. But I grow weary of such simple challenges, and had been thinking of turning myself to more martial pastimes. str_npc14_backstory_later|I have gone from court to court, but I have not yet found a lord who is to my liking. str_npc15_backstory_later|I've been going from castle to castle, looking to see if walls or towers need repair. But either the lord's away, or he's got other things on his mind, or I run into his creditors on the street, begging for change, and I realize that here's one job not to take. So if you hear of anything, let me know. str_npc16_backstory_later|I do the odd job from time to time. But there's naught like steady employment, and a regular run of corpses to loot. str_npc1_backstory_response_1|Perhaps. But how do I know that there won't be a 'misunderstanding' about one of my horses? str_npc2_backstory_response_1|Well, perhaps I could offer you work. Can you fight? str_npc3_backstory_response_1|Well, as it happens I run a company of mercenaries. str_npc4_backstory_response_1|I run such a company, and might be able to hire an extra hand. str_npc5_backstory_response_1|That's the spirit! I might be able to offer you something. str_npc6_backstory_response_1|You could join us. Right wrongs, fight oppressors, redeem yourself, that kind of thing. str_npc7_backstory_response_1|Hmm... Are you by any chance looking for work? str_npc8_backstory_response_1|I can offer you opportunities to make money through good honest fighting and pillaging. str_npc9_backstory_response_1|Perhaps you would like to join my company for a while. str_npc10_backstory_response_1|If you're looking for work, I can use experienced fighters. str_npc11_backstory_response_1|What will you do now? str_npc12_backstory_response_1|Well, you could travel with us, but you'd have to be able to fight in our battle line. str_npc13_backstory_response_1|I might be able to use an extra sword in my company. str_npc14_backstory_response_1|I might be able to use you in my company. str_npc15_backstory_response_1|Where do you need to go? str_npc16_backstory_response_1|I might be. What can you do? str_npc1_backstory_response_2|I'll do no such thing. I have better things to do then to help thieves avoid justice. str_npc2_backstory_response_2|Hard luck, friend. Good day to you. str_npc3_backstory_response_2|Go back to your family, lass. Fathers must always be obeyed. str_npc4_backstory_response_2|No, sorry, I haven't heard of one. str_npc5_backstory_response_2|Sigh.. So long as you hill clans fight tribe against tribe, you will remain a silly, weak people. str_npc6_backstory_response_2|Away with you, accursed fraticide! str_npc7_backstory_response_2|Actually, I'm rather fond of the place. Good day to you. str_npc8_backstory_response_2|Your brother-in-law was right -- women should not rule. Go back home and tend your hearth. str_npc9_backstory_response_2|Some of my best friends are riff-raff. Good day to you, sir. str_npc10_backstory_response_2|No doubt you'll wake up with your head in a noose, and you'll deserve it. Good day. str_npc11_backstory_response_2|Very interesting, madame, but I have work to do. str_npc12_backstory_response_2|Sorry. I can't take on any new hands. str_npc13_backstory_response_2|No, sorry. Nothing I can do for you. str_npc14_backstory_response_2|I'll let you know if I hear of anything. Good day. str_npc15_backstory_response_2|Sorry. I've got all the men that I can manage right now. str_npc16_backstory_response_2|Sorry, lass. You sound like you might be trouble. str_npc1_signup|{Sir/Madame} -- I'm offended that you would even think such a thing. I'd be most indebted to you, and you'll see that I show my gratitude. str_npc2_signup|Well, I will confess that I am not a warrior by trade. str_npc3_signup|Do you? Well, I am in no position to be picky! I would be pleased to join you. str_npc4_signup|Good! I look forward to vanquishing your enemies. str_npc5_signup|Why, that is a most generous offer. str_npc6_signup|Yes! You must have been sent by divine providence! Lead me -- lead me away from darkness! str_npc7_signup|I might be. I could certainly use the money. str_npc8_signup|Can you? I shall accept your offer. str_npc9_signup|I would very much like that, {sir/madame} str_npc10_signup|Are you, now? Well, that's a sight better than swinging from a gibbet for desertion. str_npc11_signup|Why, I'll be a soldier myself! Help my old hands to a bit of loot to comfort me in my retirement. Two boys I bore, both soldiers' brats, and they became soldiers themselves. One had his head split by a Khergit war club, the other died of the pox, but at least they didn't die hungry. str_npc12_signup|As I told you, I am a surgeon, not some silk-robed university physician who has never touched a body. I can get my hands dirty. str_npc13_signup|Indeed? You would do well to enlist me. str_npc14_signup|I would be pleased to ride with you, at least for a little while, for pay and a share of any loot. str_npc15_signup|Geroia, eventually, but I'd welcome the opportunity to get a few denars in my pocket, first, so I don't come home empty handed. So if you promise me food and a share of the loot, I'd be happy to fight with you for a while. str_npc16_signup|Well, {sir/madame}, let me tell you. I may not know how to read and write, but I know the quickest way to a man's heart is between his fourth and fifth rib, if you understand me. str_npc1_signup_2|I've ridden over a fair amount of rough country in my time, more often than not in a hurry. I'm a good tracker and I've got a good eye for terrain. So what do you say? str_npc2_signup_2|I'm a fast learner. I can ride, and know a fair bit about trade, prices and such. str_npc3_signup_2|I think you would find I would be a most valuable addition to your ranks. I am well versed in the classics of literature and can declaim several of the epic poems of my people. I play the lute and am a skilled manager of household servants. str_npc4_signup_2|Note however that as a gentleman and the holder of a barony, I expect to be in a position of command, and not be treated as one of the common soldiers. str_npc5_signup_2|I shall not betray you -- so long, of course, as you do your duty to me by feeding me, paying me, and not dragging my miserable hide into a battle where there is no chance of winning. Hand me some salt, if you will -- it is the custom of our people to take salt from our captains, as a token of their concern for our well-being. str_npc6_signup_2|I am well practiced in the arts of war -- but I beg you, {sir/madame}, I wish to use my skills to defend the innocent, the pure, and the defenseless, not to be a common brigand and wreak more misery than I have already wrought. str_npc7_signup_2|But let your followers know that I do not suffer louts and brutes. Anyone who misbehaves around me will quickly find an arrow in their gullet. str_npc8_signup_2|I shall be pleased to fight in your shield wall. But I warn you -- if you ask me to gather the firewood, or cook a meal, you will not like the consequences. str_npc9_signup_2|I am a gentleman, and prefer to fight with sword and lance. I recognize that you are of lower birth than I, there is no shame for me to serve under an experienced captain -- presuming, of course, that your followers do not become too familiar with me. I assume that will not be a problem? str_npc10_signup_2|You won't regret taking me on, {Brother/Sister}. I'm a dead eye with a crossbow -- a beautiful weapon, it can right punch through a nobleman's armour and spill his blue blood upon the ground. And I've trained more raw recruits than you've had hot dinners, begging your pardon. I don't toadie to the high-born. str_npc11_signup_2|I know how to swing a blade, staunch a wound, and feed an army on the march. It would be a foolish captain who passed up the opportunity to hire an experienced campaigner like me! Say, {laddie/lassie}, don't you command a war party of your own, now? str_npc12_signup_2|I have treated every variety of wound that can be inflicted by the hand of man. Before I was a surgeon, I was a student, so you may be sure that I have inflicted wounds as well as healed them. str_npc13_signup_2|Sword, lance, the bow -- my skill in all such martial pursuits is the stuff of epic verse. Together we will perform such feats as will be recounted in festivals and campfires, in filthy taverns and in the halls of kings, for many generations to come. str_npc14_signup_2|I am a skilled swordsman, and I can also instruct your men in fighting. But I warn you that I do not care to fight for a leader who is lax in discipline with {his/her} men, for in the long run they will not respect a soft hand. str_npc15_signup_2|Siegework is my speciality, although I reckon can handle myself well enough in an open battle, if need be. str_npc16_signup_2|I can throw knives, in addition to stabbing with them, and I'm slippery as quicksilver. You'll find me useful in a fight, I'll warrant. str_npc1_signup_response_1|Good. You can be useful to us. str_npc2_signup_response_1|That will do. str_npc3_signup_response_1|Um, that's a start. We can teach you the rest. str_npc4_signup_response_1|Very well. I'll be glad to have you with us, um, 'Baron.' str_npc5_signup_response_1|Certainly. Here, have some salt. str_npc6_signup_response_1|Happy to be of service! Get your things together, and we shall be on our way. str_npc7_signup_response_1|I will hire you. Try not to shoot anyone on your first day. str_npc8_signup_response_1|No fear, ma'am. You're the widow and the daughter of a thane, and you'll be treated as such. str_npc9_signup_response_1|Well, it shouldn't be. I'll have a talk with them. str_npc10_signup_response_1|Good man. We'll treat you with the respect you deserve. str_npc11_signup_response_1|It sounds like you'll be useful. You are hired. str_npc12_signup_response_1|Then welcome to our company, doctor str_npc13_signup_response_1|Good. Make yourself ready, and we'll be on our way. str_npc14_signup_response_1|Good. I'll be happy to hire someone like you. str_npc15_signup_response_1|That works for me. I will be pleased to hire you. str_npc16_signup_response_1|It sounds like you can do the job. I will hire you. str_npc1_signup_response_2|I'd prefer not to take the risk. Good day, sir. str_npc2_signup_response_2|I'm afraid I'm only looking for men with some experience. Good day to you. str_npc3_signup_response_2|Actually, we were looking for a slightly different skill-set. str_npc4_signup_response_2|Actually, we are not in the habit of hiring bandits with invented pedigrees. Good day, sir. str_npc5_signup_response_2|Actually, on second thought, I prefer to keep more civilized company. str_npc6_signup_response_2|On second thought, maybe a mercenary company is not what you need right now. str_npc7_signup_response_2|Actually, on second thought, you sound like you might be trouble. Good day to you. str_npc8_signup_response_2|Ah. Actually, if you don't do whatever I order you to do, you'd best seek your fortune elsewhere. str_npc9_signup_response_2|You assume wrong, sir. In my company we respect courage and skill, rather than noble birth. str_npc10_signup_response_2|On second thought, we value discipline pretty highly in our company. Good day to you. str_npc11_signup_response_2|Sorry, madame. We've already got as many in our company as we can handle. str_npc12_signup_response_2|A battle is not the same thing as a tavern brawl. Perhaps you should look elsewhere for work. str_npc13_signup_response_2|Actually, on second thought, a fighter overeager for glory is dangerous to have in one's company. str_npc14_signup_response_2|Actually, I have no wish to provoke a mutiny in my ranks. Good day, sir. str_npc15_signup_response_2|Actually, I need a different kind of expertise. My apologies. str_npc16_signup_response_2|To be honest, I'd prefer someone who was a little less tempted to larceny. str_npc1_payment|I will be very useful to you, {sir/madame}, you can bet on that. Just one more thing before we leave, would you mind lending me {reg3} denars? I am ashamed to say it, but I have made myself a bit of debt here, staying in this tavern over the last few weeks and the tavern owners no longer believe that I am loaded with gold as I used to tell them. You know, things could get ugly here if they see me leaving with you before paying them. str_npc4_payment|Excellent. Before we depart, would you be so kind to lend me {reg3} denars? I had to pawn a family heirloom at a pawnbroker here in {s20}, and I would like to retrieve it before we leave. str_npc5_payment|Thank you. Now, to seal off our agreement, I ask for {reg3} denars from you. It's an advice my father gave me. He told me 'Baheshtur, never fight for a barbarian before {he/she} pays you your worth of gold first'. str_npc7_payment|All right then. I will come with you. But I want a payment of {reg3} denars first. You aren't expecting me to work for free, do you? str_npc8_payment|Then I will fight your enemies for you. But first I want a bounty of {reg3} denars. If you are a worthy captain who can lead {his/her} company to riches and plunder, you should have no trouble paying. I cannot afford to follow a pauper. str_npc9_payment|That's very good of you. And before I join, can you lend me {reg3} denars, so that I can buy some proper clothing that befits a gentleman of noble birth such as myself. The coat on me has been worn down badly due to my recent bad fortune, and I cannot let common soldiers mistake me as one of their own. str_npc10_payment|That's good news. But I'll ask for one last thing, captain. I have a woman here in {s20}, a tavern wench, and she says she has my child in her belly. I want to give her some money before I leave... for the child, you know. Do you think you can spare {reg3} denars? str_npc11_payment|Hey thank you captain. But before joining up with you, I would ask for a payment of {reg3} denars. I know that in war parties soldiers can go on for weeks without seeing any wages. I am wise enough not to sign anywhere without having myself covered. str_npc13_payment|Before I sign up, there is the small matter of some expenses I have incurred while staying here -- {reg3} denars. Do you think that you could cover those for me, as a gesture of friendship? str_npc14_payment|Ah, one last thing. I would ask for an initial bounty of {reg3} denars before I join your command. It's my principle never to enter someone's service without receiving the payment I deserve. str_npc15_payment|Good. By the way, as a skilled engineer I would expect a payment for my services. A signing bonus of {reg3} denars would be fair, I think. str_npc16_payment|Now, that's good news, captain. So, how about paying me a little something to seal off our agreement? A mere {reg3} would be enough. Please don't take this the wrong way, but I've had some bad luck with employers in the past. str_npc1_payment_response|Very well, here's {reg3} denars. Now, fall in with the rest. str_npc4_payment_response|Certainly. Here's {reg3} denars. str_npc5_payment_response|Well... here's {reg3} denars, then. Your first payment. str_npc7_payment_response|No, of course not. Here's {reg3} denars. str_npc8_payment_response|Oh, I am no pauper, madame. Here's {reg3} denars for you. str_npc9_payment_response|Very well, here's {reg3} denars. str_npc10_payment_response|Of course. Here, {reg3} denars. str_npc11_payment_response|Very well, here's {reg3} denars. Make yourself ready. We leave soon. str_npc13_payment_response|Of course, here's {reg3} denars. Make ready to leave soon. str_npc14_payment_response|All right, here's {reg3} denars. You are most welcome in our company. str_npc15_payment_response|All right, here's {reg3} denars. Glad to have you with us. str_npc16_payment_response|All right, here's {reg3} denars for you. Make yourself ready. str_npc1_morality_speech|Oy -- boss. Please don't take this the wrong way, but it's a hard life and it's a bit much that we {s21}. Take a little more care in the future, captain, if you don't mind my saying. str_npc2_morality_speech|I hope you don't mind my saying so, but it's a bit hard for me to see us {s21}. Maybe I ought to try to be more of a hardened soldier, but if we could try to exercise a little mercy from time to time, I'd sleep better. str_npc3_morality_speech|Perhaps it is not my place to say so, {sir/madame}, but I confess that I am somewhat shocked that we {s21}. Of course I realize that war is cruel, but there is no need to make it more cruel than necessary. str_npc4_morality_speech|Your pardon -- just so you know, the men of the House of Rolf do not care to {s21}. I will not be pleased if you continue to take this course. str_npc5_morality_speech|Pardon me, captain. It is not good to {s21}. Your first duty is to the men who have taken your salt. The least they can expect is food, pay, the opportunity to loot, and that you not waste their lives needlessly. str_npc6_morality_speech|Excuse me, {sir/madame}. As you know, I joined with you to right wrongs, protect the innocent, and make amends for my sin. I did not expect to {s21}. str_npc7_morality_speech|Captain -- I do not like to see us {s21}. Such are the actions of a common bandit chief, with no regard for his followers. str_npc8_morality_speech|I was not pleased that you decided to {s21}. To fall in battle is an honour, but to fight in a warband led by a coward is a disgrace. str_npc9_morality_speech|{Sir/Madame} -- it is not my way to {s21}. Men of my house will accept death but not dishonour. Please do not make me ashamed to serve under you. str_npc10_morality_speech|Begging your pardon, captain. I can't say that I'm happy to see us {s21}. Those are just simple people, trying to make a living. If we could try to go easy on the poor wretches, captain, I'd feel much better. str_npc11_morality_speech|Excuse me, captain. It's not good that we {s21}. I've followed armies and warbands for 30 years, and the least the soldiers expect of a leader is to feed them, pay them, and do {his/her} best to keep their sorry skins intact as best {he/she} can. str_npc12_morality_speech|Captain -- I do not like to see us {s21}. I am prepared to be a warrior, but not a brigand. Pray let us try to show a little more compassion. str_npc13_morality_speech|Captain, if we can avoid it, I'd prefer not to {s21}. Calradia is a small place, and one's reputation is precious. I would not care for one of my rivals to include this latest unfortunate incident in a satirical verse. str_npc14_morality_speech|I do not care to {s21}. No one with a reputation for cowardice will be properly feared by his men. str_npc15_morality_speech|{Sir/Madame} -- just so you know my opinion, any commander with sense will not let his company {s21}.I hope you don't mind me speaking so bluntly. str_npc16_morality_speech|Captain. I don't like to {s21}. So many throats left uncut, and so many purses left unexplored... str_npc1_2ary_morality_speech|Boss -- just so you know, I've got no problem if we {s21}. Living to fight another day makes good sense to me. str_npc2_2ary_morality_speech|{Sir/Madame} -- I'm not altogether happy that we {s21}. I'm a merchant, and in our business one is bonded by one's word. I don't want a reputation for dishonesty -- that would spell my end as a trader, {sir/madame}. str_npc3_2ary_morality_speech|{Sir/Madame} -- I think it was a brave decision you took to {s21}. There is no shame in finding a way to avoid the spilling of blood. str_npc4_2ary_morality_speech|Your pardon -- whatever anyone else says, I think nothing of it that you {s21}. You should adopt whatever ruse you need to survive in these troubled times. str_npc6_2ary_morality_speech|{Sir/Madame} -- you may choose to {s21}, but would prefer to have no part in it. Such is not the path to my redemption. str_npc9_2ary_morality_speech|Captain, I am dismayed that you {s21}. A {gentleman/gentlewoman} such as yourself should exhibit the highest standards of honour at all times. str_npc10_2ary_morality_speech|{Brother/Sister} -- I can't say I like to see us {s21}. You should treat your men well, and they'll repay with interest. str_npc14_2ary_morality_speech|Captain -- you should not let it bother you that you {s21}. Armies are made to do their leaders' bidding, and hardships are part of a soldier's life. str_npc15_2ary_morality_speech|You know, friend {playername}, it's none too reassuring to see how you just {s21}. If you can break your word to them, you can break your word to me, is how I figure it. str_npc16_2ary_morality_speech|Captain -- just so you know, it's no problem by me that we {s21}. We do what we need to do to live, and they'd do the same to us if they were in our shoes. str_npc1_personalityclash_speech|Captain -- no offense, but I'm a bit tired of {s11}, who puts on airs like she's something better than your humble servant Borcha. str_npc2_personalityclash_speech|{Sir/Madame} -- as you recall I was a merchant before I signed on with you. I respect men who make their living peacefully, risking all to bring goods for far away lands. str_npc3_personalityclash_speech|Captain -- in my opinion, {s11} is a hard and cruel man. He speaks of nothing but the need to flog, beat, and hang his fellow soldiers. str_npc4_personalityclash_speech|{Sir/Madame}. The House of Rolf is one of the most ancient and respected families in this part of the world, with a provenance dating back to the Old Calradic Empire. Yet {s11} openly shows me disrespect, and casts doubt on the provenance of my house. str_npc5_personalityclash_speech|A moment of your time, captain. {s11} seems to think me a common bandit, just because I have rewarded myself in the past to the legitimate spoils of war from caravans passing through my family's lands. str_npc6_personalityclash_speech|Your pardon, {sir/madame}, but I cannot keep my tongue stilled any longer. That harlot, {s11} -- every time she sees me she points the five fingers of her hand at me -- a peasant's sign to ward off evil. str_npc7_personalityclash_speech|Captain, I have done my best to put up with your followers' rude talk and filthy habits. But that one who calls himself {s11} is beyond tolerance. str_npc8_personalityclash_speech|Just so you know, I cannot abide that insolent mountebank {s11}. Some minutes ago, I was remarking to our companions how the peasants of this region were more than usually slack-jawed and beetle-browed, and speculated that perhaps they had bred with apes. str_npc9_personalityclash_speech|Sir -- {s11} is a base braggart, a man with no respect for the honour of women. I am tired of hearing how he conquered this or that damsel. str_npc10_personalityclash_speech|Excuse me, captain. I hate to trouble you with such things, but I just wanted to let you know that I can't abide that fellow Rolf, the one who calls himself a baron. str_npc11_personalityclash_speech|Begging your pardon, captain, but I can't keep silent. That man, {s11} -- he killed his own brother. str_npc12_personalityclash_speech|My lord. The barbarian woman, {s11}, complained of headaches -- a possible symptom of excess of sanguinity. I thought to apply my leeches. str_npc13_personalityclash_speech|Captain, I weary of {s11}, who talks of nothing but chivalry and feats of arms. str_npc14_personalityclash_speech|Excuse me, captain. A few minutes ago, I had expressed the opinion that liberal use of the lash and occasional use of the gallows is essential to keep soldiers in line. Men without a healthy fear of their commanders are more likely to run from battle. str_npc15_personalityclash_speech|Excuse me. I hope you don't mind me telling you that in my opinion, that girl {s11} is a danger to the party. She's a feral brat, disrespectful of authority and the basic principles of the military art. str_npc16_personalityclash_speech|Oy, captain. Just so you know -- there's something funny about {s11}. He makes strange scrawlings in the dirt, and mutters to himself. str_npc1_personalityclash_speech_b|She's a common bandit, just like myself, and she has no right to tell me to keep my distance from her, as she did just now. str_npc2_personalityclash_speech_b|I don't much care to hear {s11} gloat about the caravans he has looted, or he plans to loot, like he has no respect for good honest trade. str_npc3_personalityclash_speech_b|I know that an army is not a nursery, and that strong discipline is important, but I do believe that man enjoys cruelty for cruelty's sake. I hope you do not mind me saying so. str_npc4_personalityclash_speech_b|{Sir/madame}, these are indeed sorry days if common folk are allowed to mock their betters. That is all. str_npc5_personalityclash_speech_b|I told him that if the warrior's way bothers him so much, that he become a priest or a beggar and so not have to worry about such things. I hope you do not mind that I said such things. str_npc6_personalityclash_speech_b|I know the crime I committed was an abomination, but I am seeking repentance, and I deserve better than to be the object of some witch's superstition. I just thought you should know. str_npc7_personalityclash_speech_b|I do not care for how he stares at me around the campfire after a meal, as he picks his teeth. I believe I recognize him from my days as a bandit. He is base and ignorant. I do not care to travel with such people. str_npc8_personalityclash_speech_b|{s11}, that font of impudence, overheard me, and called me ignorant, and a savage, and other words I do not care to repeat. It was only out of respect for you that I refrained from cutting his throat then and there. I thought it only fit that I should warn you. str_npc9_personalityclash_speech_b|If he persists, I shall tell him that he is a base varlot, and if it comes to blows I will not apologize. That is all, {sir/madame}. str_npc10_personalityclash_speech_b|He's just a simple brigand, as far as I can tell. House of Rolf, my arse. Genuine blue-bloods are bad enough, but those who pretend to be blue-bloods are bloody intolerable. Anyway, I might have said something a bit sharp to him a minute ago. He seemed to take offense, anyway. I just thought you should know. str_npc11_personalityclash_speech_b|He's a kinslayer, cursed by heaven, and he'll bring misfortune and sorrow upon us, that's for certain. I don't like being around him and I don't think he should be with us. That's all. Sorry for troubling you. str_npc12_personalityclash_speech_b|But when I tried to afix them, she recoiled and struck me, and accused me of witchcraft. Captain, I am deeply tired of attending to the complaints of such an ungrateful and ignorant lot. str_npc13_personalityclash_speech_b|Valorous deeds are all very well, but they are not the only goals worth pursuing in life. Personally, I never trust any man who has not at least once woken up drunk in a ditch, or been beaten by the slipper of his lover. str_npc14_personalityclash_speech_b|That chit {s11} saw fit to admonish me for this. I will not have my methods questioned in front of the men, and I will not serve any commander who tolerates such insubordination in his company. Thank you for allowing me to speak my peace. str_npc15_personalityclash_speech_b|What's more, I suspect she's a thief. I found her going through my baggage and pawing some of my schematics, and she pulled a knife on me when I thought fit to object. A wise captain would not allow her in his company. str_npc16_personalityclash_speech_b|Fearing witchcraft, I asked him about it, and he told me that a chit of a girl like myself should mind her own business. So I had a look in his baggage, and found strange plans and diagrams. I think he's a sorceror, {sir/madame}, and if I catch him trying to hex me he'll have a knife in his throat. str_npc1_personalityclash2_speech|Oy -- boss, I don't fancy myself a sensitive soul, but I don't particularly like how {s11} went about cutting the throats of the enemy wounded, back there. str_npc2_personalityclash2_speech|{Sir/Madame}. If you don't mind, I'd prefer not to be deployed anywhere near {s11}, after what he said to me during that last battle. str_npc3_personalityclash2_speech|{Sir/Madame}. Since I have joined your company, I have tried hard to learn how to live like a soldier, and how to honour the warrior's code. If I occasionally make mistakes, I would hope to be forgiven. str_npc4_personalityclash2_speech|{Sir/Madame}. I happened to exchange a few words with {s11} as we were dividing up the spoils of battle. Please inform her that when she speaks to me, she should call me 'Baron' or perhaps 'Baron Rolf,' or 'Your Grace,' but certainly not just 'Rolf.' str_npc5_personalityclash2_speech|Captain. {s11} needs to have her tongue cut out. str_npc6_personalityclash2_speech|My lord. Did you see {s11} during that last battle? He taunts the fallen foe as they lay stricken and helpless on the battlefield, mocking their parentage, their foolishness for having fought us. str_npc7_personalityclash2_speech|Captain -- I have been searching my mind trying to remember where I have seen {s11}, the one who calls himself a baron. As I watched him in action during that last battle, I suddenly remembered. He is a good fighter, but also a vicious one. str_npc8_personalityclash2_speech|Captain. {s11} is a most insolent girl. I have tried to be polite, even friendly, only to have her rebuff me. str_npc9_personalityclash2_speech|{Sir/My lady}, I hope you do not mind me telling you this, but in my opinion {s11}, the merchant, does not know his place. During that last battle, he cut in front of me to engage a foe whom I had marked for my own. str_npc10_personalityclash2_speech|{Brother/Sister} -- a question for you. Are you in charge of this company, or is it {s11}? str_npc11_personalityclash2_speech|Captain. I don't much care for that {s11}. After that last battle, he went around muttering some heathen incantation, as he went through the slain looking for loot. str_npc12_personalityclash2_speech|Captain. I can no longer abide the rank ignorance of {s11}. As I was treating the wounded during our last battle, he saw fit to disparage my use of laudanum in relieving the pain while I conducted surgery, and of treating wounds with a poultice of honey. str_npc13_personalityclash2_speech|Hello, captain! {s11} is a temperamental one, isn't he? During that last battle, I was merely having a friendly chat with our foes about their mothers as we exchanged swordblows, and it caused him to throw a fit! str_npc14_personalityclash2_speech|Sir. {s11} is incorrigibly indisciplined. During that skirmish, I called out to him that he should hold ranks with the rest of our battle array. He called back to me that I should 'get stuffed.' str_npc15_personalityclash2_speech|Captain -- I must tell you that I question {s11}'s medical credentials. As he was tending to our wounded after that last battle, I saw fit to remind him that the peerless Galerian often advocated administering a distillation of beetroot, to restore the humor imbalance brought by loss of sanguinity. str_npc16_personalityclash2_speech|Beg your pardon, {sir/ma'am}. {s11} might have been a very good thief, but he's not got the stomach to be a warrior, if you ask me. str_npc1_personalityclash2_speech_b|The way she whistles cheerfully as she does it -- it puts a chill down my spine, it does. str_npc2_personalityclash2_speech_b|The enemy was bearing down on us, and he says, 'Step aside, merchant, this is knight's work.' Next time I will step aside, and let him take a spear in the gut. str_npc3_personalityclash2_speech_b|After our last victory I was picking through the slain, and availed myself of one of our foe's purses. No sooner had I done so then {s11} came up behind me and struck it from my hands, saying that it was she who had made the kill, and thus she deserved the spoils. My lord, I could not tell in the heat of battle who had struck whom. If {s11} had simply told me that she deserved the purse, I would gladly have given it to her. str_npc4_personalityclash2_speech_b|I am of noble blood, and she is of the basest birth. She must remember her place. str_npc5_personalityclash2_speech_b|When the loot was piled up after the last battle, I found among the enemy's baggage a very decent cooking pot. Often I had wished to find such a pot, so I could boil some of the stews that my people use to warm their bellies during the winter months. But {s11} grabs the pot, and tells me that I will not be allowed to 'taint' it with heathen food, and that it should properly belong to her. I yielded the pot to her, but I will not tolerate such disrespect in the future. str_npc6_personalityclash2_speech_b|My lord -- such hubris will not be overlooked by Heaven, and I fear we shall all of us pay the price. str_npc7_personalityclash2_speech_b|Back when I lived in the ravines, we would sometimes fight with a rival band called the Brethen of the Woods. Captain -- I would not trust any man who hides his origins, and particularly would not trust a common bandit who calls himself a lord. str_npc8_personalityclash2_speech_b|As we were cleaning our weapons after that last battle, I remarked that I thought her a handsome girl, and after I regained my lands I would happily find her a match with one of my warriors. I thought it was a very generous offer, as a woman disinherited by her father is hardly going to find herself awash in prospects. But rather than thank me, she simply turned her back without a word. It was only out of respect for your leadership that I did not immediately try to teach her some manners. str_npc9_personalityclash2_speech_b|I appreciate that he is willing to risk his life in battle, but that alone does not make a gentleman. He is not of noble birth, and his family's wealth comes from commerce and usury. He may fight with us as an auxiliary, but should not attempt to steal glory from his betters. str_npc10_personalityclash2_speech_b|In that last battle he was shouting at me 'Go forward, go back, hold the line.' When I told him to mind his own trimming he said he'd have me flogged. Captain, that man is looking for a crossbow bolt in his chest, begging your pardon. str_npc11_personalityclash2_speech_b|He said it was a prayer of thanksgiving for victory, but it didn't sound like that to me. Captain, I don't want him raising up the ghosts of the dead to make trouble for us on our travels. I think you had best be rid of him str_npc12_personalityclash2_speech_b|Captain, if that man knew the slightest thing about medical matters, he would know that one should never undermine a patient's confidence in his doctor, particularly not during a complicated operation. If you would be kind enough to dismiss him from this company, you would be doing all of us a great service. str_npc13_personalityclash2_speech_b|When all the dust settled, {s11} turned on me and told me not to 'tempt the wrath of the Heavens' with my 'hubris.' I responded that at least I hadn't killed my own brother, which I think bothers the Heavens a lot more than battlefield small talk. {s11} turns red like a baboon's arse and would have struck me had I not artfully dodged out of his away. Tell him to lighten up, will you? str_npc14_personalityclash2_speech_b|{Sir/Madame}, such defiance of proper authority is a corrosive influence on our company, and I shall have him flogged if he does so again. str_npc15_personalityclash2_speech_b|{s11} responded that Galenian was an 'antiquated know-nothing.' Captain, no true doctor would have such disrespect for the great masters of the past. I do not believe you should employ such an obvious impostor. str_npc16_personalityclash2_speech_b|After our last scrap, I was slicing open the guts of some our foes to check for hidden gold, as a girl who counts her pennies ought. He gagged and muttered that I was an 'animal.' I'll inspect his innards for contraband if he doesn't keep a civil tongue in his head. str_npc1_personalitymatch_speech|Boss. {s11} back there didn't do badly in that last fight at all. He's a good egg, too. str_npc2_personalitymatch_speech|{Sir/Madame}. I just wanted to tell you that {s11} may be a rough sort, and I'll venture a thoroughgoing rogue as well, but I'm proud to call him my companion. str_npc3_personalitymatch_speech|Hello, {sir/madame}! I had just wanted to tell you that {s11} is a most gallant knight. Did you see him in our last battle? str_npc4_personalitymatch_speech|Excuse me, {sir/madame}. I just wanted to say a word in praise of {s11}. He did well in that last battle. str_npc5_personalitymatch_speech|That was a fine battle, {playername} Bahadur! {s11} is a good man to have by our side in a fight. str_npc6_personalitymatch_speech|Captain. Sometimes I am troubled by all this bloodshed, although I know that proud warlords must be humbled, and cruel bandits tamed, if we are to restore peace to Calradia. str_npc7_personalitymatch_speech|Captain. I was just talking to {s11}. She may be a bit savage, but I believe that she is a faithful friend. str_npc8_personalitymatch_speech|A fine battle that was, captain. And I have to say, I admire the taunts that {s11} hurled at our enemy. str_npc9_personalitymatch_speech|Captain. {s11} acquitted herself well in that fight back there. A fine, modest maiden she is, if I dare say so myself. str_npc10_personalitymatch_speech|Ahoy, Brother! I wish you joy of your victory! Say, old Mother {s11}'s not bad in a scrap, is she, for a woman of her years? Although I'm getting to be a bit of an old dog myself, now. str_npc11_personalitymatch_speech|Ach, captain! A fight like that one sets my old joints a-creaking. Still, we licked them pretty good, didn't we? str_npc12_personalitymatch_speech|A bloody business, captain, a bloody business -- although a necessary one, of course. {s11}, I believe, shares my ambivalence about this constant fighting. str_npc13_personalitymatch_speech|You have earned your name today, oh valorous one! And {s11}, too! I like that one. She sings the songs of her people as she goes into battle, which appeals to an artistic soul like my own. str_npc14_personalitymatch_speech|Captain. It is a pleasure going into battle with men like {s11} by my side. str_npc15_personalitymatch_speech|Captain. I was just having a word with {s11} after our last battle, and it strikes me that the man has got a good head on his shoulders. str_npc16_personalitymatch_speech|Oy -- captain. I was just having a chat with {s11}, as we picked through the bodies after our last little scrap. str_npc1_personalitymatch_speech_b|Without good honest souls like him to bring silver into Calradia, scoundrels like me would have a hard time in life, I'll warrant. I'm glad to have him with us. str_npc2_personalitymatch_speech_b|Based on how he did in that last fight, I'd say that I'd trust my back to him any day, although I'd still keep a hand on my purse. str_npc3_personalitymatch_speech_b|I also confess that I find him a truly delightful companion, a man of both wit and manners. Perhaps, perhaps... Ah, but I say too much. Good day, {sir/madame}. str_npc4_personalitymatch_speech_b|You chose well to enlist him in our company. He knows a thing or two about a fight, and also knows the importance of respecting his comrades-in-arms, unlike some others I might mention. str_npc5_personalitymatch_speech_b|As for his other attributes, I doubt that he is any more a Baron than I am, but I have to admire the brazen way he makes that claim. str_npc6_personalitymatch_speech_b|I must say that {s11} is a source of great comfort to me. I have told him of my sin, and he said to me that Heaven will forgive my transgression, if I truly repent and truly desire such forgiveness. He is wise, and I am glad that he is with us. str_npc7_personalitymatch_speech_b|At some point in the future, if you have no need of our services, she has promised to go back to the ravines with me and find the bandits who murdered my lover, and help me take my revenge. It was a kind offer. I am glad that she is with us. str_npc8_personalitymatch_speech_b|He managed to include their geneology, their appearance, and their eating habits in a well-framed Old Calradic quatrain. I personally prefer the saga, but we Nords respect poetic craftwork when we hear it. str_npc9_personalitymatch_speech_b|Were she of noble blood, I might ask for her hand. It is a pity that she is a merchant's daughter. But speaking with her is a pleasant way to pass time on the march. str_npc10_personalitymatch_speech_b|Heh. It just goes to show that youth ain't everything, that experience also wins battles. I reckon she and I could teach the young puppies of the world a thing or two, couldn't we? str_npc11_personalitymatch_speech_b|Old {s11} in particular showed them a thing or two, I thought. Not bad for the pair of us, I thought, given that between us we've probably seen close to a hundred winters. str_npc12_personalitymatch_speech_b|It saddens him deeply to take the lives of his fellow men, however just the cause. He and I have talked together of a brighter future, of the need to unite these petty warring kingdoms of Calradia, so that we may bring this time of troubles to an end. str_npc13_personalitymatch_speech_b|Also, although I normally prefer the coy to the Amazonesque, I confess that I have also noticed the femininity she tries to hide beneath her martial demeanour. True, she is a bit aloof on the march and in camp, but perhaps my fair words can melt the Nordic ice around her heart. str_npc14_personalitymatch_speech_b|He is a professional soldier, and though he may not be as fast on his feet as some others, he knows the wisdom of holding together in a disciplined battle-line. You showed good sense in bringing him into this company. str_npc15_personalitymatch_speech_b|War, like any other affair, requires careful planning and preparation, and a firm grasp of strategic principals. All other things being equal, the best trained army will win the battle, an observation that I think our last fight bears out. The men may curse him now, but they'll learn to thank him, I'll warrant. str_npc16_personalitymatch_speech_b|Have you heard her story? Can you believe the wrongs done to her? I tell you, it makes my blood boil. I want to cut off all the little bits of those bastards who mistreated her -- and I'll do it, too, if we ever run into them in our travels. str_npc1_retirement_speech|I'm a bit tired of marching up and down the land, shedding my blood for someone else's cause. The loot is good, but I think I've got enough of that, now. I'm going to head back to my village, take a wife, settle down, maybe raise horses if I can afford it. str_npc2_retirement_speech|I'm getting a bit tired of the warrior's life. I'm going to invest my share of our loot into a cargo of goods -- furs, linens, velvets, probably -- and take them back over the mountains. I would like to thank you again for taking me on, and wish you the best of luck. str_npc3_retirement_speech|I am afraid I have something to tell you. I have decided that the warrior's life is not for me. I think it is probably too late for me to find a good marriage -- no one of my people would take a wife who had served with a company of soldiers -- but I may have enough money to start myself up as a merchant. I hope you will not be angry, {sir/madame}. str_npc4_retirement_speech|I have fought with you honourably, as befits a son of the House of Rolf, but I am not altogether satisfied with your leadership. I will go home to my ancestral estates, which are much in need of my services. str_npc5_retirement_speech|Bahadur -- since I have taken your salt, I have fought for you fiercely, and loyally. But you have not always repayed my service with the kind of leadership that I deserve. So I am going home, in the hope that the Khan's men have forgotten me, to see my father and brothers again. str_npc6_retirement_speech|I joined this company in the hope that you would lead me out of darkness, and indeed I have found a measure of peace here. But I have some qualms about your leadership, and have begun to suspect that the path to redemption can be found elsewhere. str_npc7_retirement_speech|I am tired of this squalid life of endless warfare, seeing men debased by fear, greed, lust, and a hundred other sins. I have money in my purse. I am going overseas to look for a better land than Calradia. I assume that you will fare well without me. str_npc8_retirement_speech|I have fought in your shield wall, and done well by it. But your leadership is not always to my liking, and anyways I have another task. I will take what plunder I have won and raise a warband of my own and sail to Nordland to take back my husband's hall from my treacherous brother-in-law. I wish you well. str_npc9_retirement_speech|We have fought well together, and earned ourselves much glory. But I have some reservations about your leadership, and at any rate have my patrimony to reclaim. I will be leaving you. Perhaps we will meet again. str_npc10_retirement_speech|I've had enough of tromping up and down the length and breadth of Calradia. I've got enough to buy a small bit of land somewhere, so I think I'll give that a try. So long, and best of luck to you. str_npc11_retirement_speech|You did an old woman a great service by taking her into your company. But I'm afraid I'm finding this life no more to my liking than driving a wagon. Too much cold, too much hunger, and at the end all I see in front of me is a hole in the ground. So I'll be off, although I don't know where. str_npc12_retirement_speech|I've done all right in your company. I filled my belly, put some gold in my purse, and broadened my knowledge of wounds and injury -- I can't complain about that! But I think right now that service in this company is holding me back. I have a duty to share my findings with other surgeons, and for that I need to hire scribes, who are rare in Calradia. I shall be going home str_npc13_retirement_speech|As the luster of your name grows ever brighter, I fear that my own reputation will seem pale in comparison, as the moon is outshined by the sun. I have decided to strike out on my own. The very best of luck to you! str_npc14_retirement_speech|I would like to inform you that I wish to sever our relationship. I intend to seek alternative employment. str_npc15_retirement_speech|I appreciate that you took me on, but I'm not altogether happy about how things have worked out. I'm going to head off elsewhere -- maybe go home, maybe find another job, I haven't quite decided yet. str_npc16_retirement_speech|I've had good times in this company, and I've found myself a pretty trinket or two on the battlefield, but right now it isn't working out. I'm leaving you to go offer my talents to someone else. str_npc1_rehire_speech|Boss -- it's good to see you again. I know we had our differences in the past, but to tell you the truth, those were some of the best days I've known. And, to tell you the truth, I've had a bit of difficulty finding work. Listen, if you'd be willing to have me back, I'd be willing to sign up with your company again. str_npc2_rehire_speech|{Sir/Madame}! It's good to see you again. But I'll confess -- I've been looking for you. I bought a load of goods like I told you I would, loaded them up, and took them back across the steppe -- but wouldn't you know it, I was hit again by Khergits, and lost it all. I guess I'm just destined to fight for my fortune. Also, people tell me that you've done very well for yourself. So tell me, {sir/madame}, would you have me back? str_npc3_rehire_speech|Well, hello {sir/madame}! It is very good to see you again. I have not fared so well since we parted, I am afraid. My mother's family. whom I hoped would give me a start in trading, have not been as welcoming as I have hoped. I receive nothing but lectures from my aunts, on how I have ruined my prospects for marriage by taking service in a mercenary company. Perhaps I am better suited to war than to commerce, to share a meal over a campfire with rough fellows than to drink wine with the burghers of Veluca. {Sir/Madame}, I must ask you -- will you take me back? str_npc4_rehire_speech|Why hello, captain. It's been a while. You've done well for yourself, I hear. For my part, I've been having some difficulties coaxing a living from my estates -- locusts, bad rains, unruly serfs, that sort of thing. I thought I might take up the sword once more. I know there's been some bad blood between us, but I'd be honoured to fight in your ranks once again. str_npc5_rehire_speech|{playername} Bahadur! Your fame grows ever greater -- even as far as my homeland, beyond the mountains. I'd returned there, hoping that the Khan's men had forgotten. Well, they had not -- even before I set foot in my valley, I had word from my family that both the Khan and the Humyan were looking for me. So I came back again, hoping you might forget any harsh words I had spoken, to see if I could fight with you once again. str_npc6_rehire_speech|It is good to see you, {sir/madame}. Everywhere I go, men are in awe of your deeds. I have not had it so well since I left. Wherever I go, I feel my demons returning. My soul is in turmoil. For reasons that I cannot fully explain, I had found peace in your company, even if I had questions about your leadership. Will you allow me to serve with you once again? str_npc7_rehire_speech|Captain! It is good to see you. Forgive what I may have said when we parted. I took a ship out of Wercheg, bound for the east, but it was taken by pirates and after my ransom I was set ashore back here. There may be better places in the world than Calradia, but I have yet to see them. So I think, if it is my lot to live here, then your company is as good a livelihood as any. Will you have me back? str_npc8_rehire_speech|Greetings to you, {playername}. I was wondering if the harsh words spoken between us in the past could be forgotten. I have been hunting among the Nords here, to see if I could find enough men to take back my husband's hall. But I could not find enough men to crew a longship, and those whom I gathered quickly got bored and wandered off -- not, I will add, before they drank away such gold as I had accumulated. So I thought back to the battles we fought together. Those were good days, and profitable ones too. str_npc9_rehire_speech|My dear, dear {man/lady}! So good it is to see you! I have sought service with the lords of this land, but have been most grieviously disappointed. Half of them ask me to collect debts from fellow lords, as though I were a banker's errand boy, or chase down his serfs, as though I were a farm overseer. One even asked me to murder one of his creditors! I have looked for you, to see if you would wish me to join you again. str_npc10_rehire_speech|Captain! It's good to see you. You see, it turns out I'm not much of a farmer. Too soft on the hired hands, I figure. I let them rob me blind. I guess fighting is what I know best. So tell me, captain, are you still looking for good men? str_npc11_rehire_speech|Captain! So good to see you! People say that you've been making gold hand over foot. I'm a fidgety old bag of bones, I'll admit. I left you because I wasn't satisfied with the warrior's life, but I spend a bit of time in town and I realize that there are worse things in life than a full belly, honest companions, and the joy of seeing the enemy run before you. So, would you be hiring again str_npc12_rehire_speech|Captain! It's a fine thing to see an honest face like yours. This world is full of lies. I went home to publish my findings, hired some scribes and made a handful of codices, and waited for the commissions. But it turns out that the universities don't care about real medical knowledge rather than warmed-over Galerian. And publishers -- let me tell you, you never saw anyone so unscrupulous. They rent the books out chapter to by chapter to students to copy, but half of them aren't returned, and those that are have pages soaked in wine, and there's no longer a complete copy of my work anywhere. I'll keep trying, but first I need a bit of money in my pocket, first. Are you looking for a surgeon? str_npc13_rehire_speech|Well hello there, oh valorous one. I had been hoping to see you again. Everywhere I go, I hear tales and songs of your deeds. I will admit that I felt a twinge of regret that we had parted ways, and, I'll confess, a twinge of jealousy as well at your reputation. I thought that once again I might fight by your side, and thus bask in the reflection of your glory. Perhaps we might ride together again, for a little while? str_npc14_rehire_speech|Captain. It is good to see you. When last we parted, I was ready to swear that I would not serve you again, but perhaps I judged you too harshly. All over Calradia, men sing your praises. I have tried serving in other lords' armies, and believe me, what I have seen of them restores my opinion of your leadership. If you would have me in your company, I would fight for you again. str_npc15_rehire_speech|Why hello, {playername}. I can't say I'm entirely displeased to see you. You see, I took on another contract before I left, and sure enough, when it came time to collect the pay, the lord had nothing but talk and excuses and petty little complaints about my handiwork. I can't say I was always happy in your company, but at least I put gold directly into my purse after every battle. You still offering work? str_npc16_rehire_speech|Captain! They say that you've done well for yourself since we last met. I'll come out and admit that I cursed your name when we parted ways, but thinking back on it you weren't all that bad. All these lords, they're glad enough to send me on little side errands, but they don't much care to have me in their main battle-line. Apparently I spook the men. I've heard it muttered that I'm a witch, or that I eat men's hearts after killing them, or other rot. Not that I mind stabbing a man while he's asleep, but it's a lot more gratifying when he's awake and kicking. So I thought I'd try to find you again, see if you'll take me on. str_npc1_home_intro|Boss -- did you know that I was born around here, in the high steppe? This is where I got my eye for horseflesh, because this is good land for horses, although a hard land for men. I suppose that's why the Khergits like it. str_npc2_home_intro|We're approaching Sargoth. That's where I was headed when the Khergits got me. str_npc3_home_intro|Can you smell that? Lemon trees, apples and crocus flowers, it's the scent of Veluca. I spent many a happy summer here when I was a girl, playing in the gardens of my mother's family while my father was away trading. str_npc4_home_intro|The Woods of Ehlerdah. Bah. This place is thick with bandits and outlaws. str_npc5_home_intro|Bahadur, we are nearing Halmar, largest town in the lower steppe. My mother's sister went here to marry a townsman and I thought to seek service with the lord here. That is when I ran into you. str_npc6_home_intro|I can see by the vines and terraces on the hillside that I am near home. I have no wish to see my family, so I will linger outside the walls if you go into town. I am sure that you will understand. str_npc7_home_intro|Do you smell that? Salt fish, rotting flax and river mud. The smells of my childhood. I want to retch. str_npc8_home_intro|Hmf. Do you hear that? It must be the crash of waves on the headland. We must be near Gundig's Point. str_npc9_home_intro|Behold the Rock of Rivacheg! The strongest fortress in Calradia. My father was one of those who held the line here against the Nords, when they first tried to push inland from the coast. str_npc10_home_intro|D'you smell that fresh air, Brother? This was my home, before I went abroad in search of coin. It's good to be up in the hills again. It's the smell of freedom. This is the cradle of Rhodok liberty, here under Grunwalder Castle str_npc11_home_intro|I see the mountains. We must be getting near home. str_npc12_home_intro|We're passing by the site of one of my greatest medical triumphs, if that interests you. str_npc13_home_intro|Ah, Castle Ergellon! Such a lovely spot, at the foot of the Rhodok highlands. Such happy days I spent here, the summer before last. str_npc14_home_intro|Do you see that fortress up there, on the spur over the valley? Ismirala? I spent a winter there some years back, trying to train the lord's men. str_npc15_home_intro|You see that castle up on the hill? Culmarr Castle, it's called. I did some work there, not long ago. It's not as showy as some of the other castles in this land, but it's the finest stonework you ever saw. str_npc16_home_intro|Aye, captain, do you see those? Those are hare tracks in the snow. We must be getting near to my birthplace. str_npc1_home_description|Well, Khergits always lived here, even back in the old days, as the Emperor gave them gold and lands to keep out the other tribes. I'm told my grandfather was a Khergit chieftain, although my mother didn't know him, any more than I knew my father. When my mother was a lass, the Khergit started coming over the mountains in larger numbers, and now there's a Khergit Khan in Tulga. str_npc2_home_description|People say that the Nords are a bunch of bloodthirsty barbarians, but they have a good head for trade, if you ask me. They make the people up and down the coast grow flax, which they weave here into linen. It can't compete with Jelkala silks and velvets as a luxury fabric, but it makes good summertime wear and you can use it for the sails of ships. More importantly, linen was one of the few goods that someone else in Calradia wasn't already making. str_npc3_home_description|Veluca has wet winters and hot summers, but the people here build great cisterns to water their crops. They grow grapes -- Velucan wine is famous, {sir/madame} -- and those who can afford it make walled gardens, where fruit trees grow in abundance, and we sit at night listening to music, or playing chess, or merely sniff the night air. str_npc4_home_description|Well, you see, the King of Swadia declared this to be his personal hunting preserve, and said he'd kill any man who as much as strung his bow here. So what happens? Some family goes hungry, and succumbs to the temptation to poach, and the king's sheriff comes along and strings him up and takes his land. His sons, rather than starve, go bandit. And so naturally anyone in the whole valley who feels the need to run away from a debt or a nagging wife or a vengeful noble comes up here to join them, living on wild pigs and berries and the purses of unwary travellers. str_npc5_home_description|Khergits had always come here, to trade and raid, and in the last days of the Empire we began to settle. Just like the Vaegirs, Swadians, Rhodoks, Nords and the House of Sarran, we took the Emperor's coin to keep the other tribes at bay. But when the Great Horde attacked our homeland in my grandfather's day, we moved into this region in force. We pushed the Vaegirs back, and made their fortresses our own. str_npc6_home_description|Here in the Vale of Suno, our dialect and customs are closer than anywhere else in Calradia to those of the old Calrad Empire. We grow olives and wine, both crops brought to this land from overseas by the emperors, and also follow the old Calradic ways. We keep our pledges and pay our debts. str_npc7_home_description|Before I was married off, and before I was taken by bandits, I lived here. I was born in a hovel and spent my childhood in the fields. Our landlords were Nord, but we never saw them, merely their cursed minions and overseers. My father, coward that he was, cringed before them. str_npc8_home_description|You haven't heard the story? When Gundig Hairy-Breeks came to Calradia from Nordland, he planted his banner on the headland and said that it would remain there until he recaptured his 'inheritance.' His 'inheritance', he called it. Gundig believed the skalds who told him that the Emperor had bequeathed Calradia to the Nords, when in fact he just gave us a small strip of land along the coast, so that we would crew his galleys. str_npc9_home_description|The Nords would sail up the river in their longships. The townsmen of the coast could have stopped them, but they were cowards then, as they are today, and paid them a yearly stipend, known as the Nordgeld, to be let in peace. But the Vaegir king would not pay. My father decided to come over the mountains, to fight with the Vaegir hosts. Three summers in a row they tried to take the Rock, and each time the Vaegir lords held them back. str_npc10_home_description|In my father's day the Swadians would come calling, thinking to make us knuckle our foreheads and call them their overlords. But Grunwalder, an old veteran of the wars from the hills, showed us how to form a battleline with spear and crossbow that could break a Swadian charge. He fell in battle, but the people gave his name to the castle that was built here, where he fell, so that we would remember, and always stand firm against the horsemens' onslaught. str_npc11_home_description|I'm from Uxkhal. You know the saying, {sir/madame} -- 'Barley grown in Uxkhal is made into ale in Praven, and we're all the better for it.' Not sure what that means, {sir/madame}, but it's true about the barley. And wheat, and oats. We grow more grain here in the Vale of Uxkhal then all the rest of Calradia put together, and our ale is the best, too. You can see it in the soil here -- rich and black, and smells of good harvests and full bellies. str_npc12_home_description|The lord over there in Almerra Castle had the dropsy, and had requested a doctor from Uxkhal to treat him. Like a typical university-educated doctor, he went right to Galerian for a cure. Galerian commends sun-metal for dropsy. Now most of Galerian's writings were useless back in the days of the Calradic emperors when they were first written down, and they're doubly worthless today, but sometimes he hits upon the right cure by chance sun-metal does cure some kinds of dropsy in small doses. However, sun-metal in large doses is poison, something that the Galerian-worshippers never grasped. str_npc13_home_description|I had come up here with a small Swadian force, but they were caught by the Rhodoks in the woods and their horsemen cut down amid the trees. I fled and found shelter up in the high valleys, in the arms of the comeliest cowherd you ever saw. She took me to a cave near the high pastures, and would bring me cheese and berries, and tell me the tales from the hills -- of playful goat-men who guide lost animals back to their flocks, or of ghostly huntsmen who ride the winds, chasing stormclouds. Such rustics they are! str_npc14_home_description|I say 'trying' because in my opinion, Vaegirs don't take well to discipline. Finest archers you ever saw, and good riders too, but they have no stomach for fighting in ranks. Their skills serve them well enough against Khergits and Nords, particularly when they can hide behind walls, but Sarranids can match them arrow for arrow, and I've seen Swadian knights cut through Vaegirs like a knife through butter. Now, a Rhodok spear-wall is designed to stop a Swadian charge in its tracks, and usually does. str_npc15_home_description|Like most castles that last around here, it's got foundations that are old Imperial Calradic. You can't see them any more with all the rebuilding, but the slabs are the size of a house. They must have been real sorcerors back in those days, because I don't see how they moved those things otherwise. Beautiful location, too -- Culmarr sits right in front of the pass leading out of Calradia, which allows the lord to charge a pretty penny in tolls during the three months of the year that it's not snowed in. str_npc16_home_description|The snows in these valleys don't melt until late in the year, and the land is hard to plough. You can grow a bit of barley, but not much else. But there's wealth here in the woods deer, rabbit and lynx, meat and furs, and the mountains have iron, and traders would ship enough saltfish up the river from the coast to keep the people fed for the winter. str_npc1_home_description_2|They go easy on us farming folk, and don't ask for much in tax -- not that we would be able to pay in any case. The land isn't good enough for most crops. Frankly, it's only good for horse-rearing, and that only for half of the year, in the winter after the rains. In the summer they take their herds back into the mountains. Caravans come over the hills and bring spice to Tulga, but we don't see much of that money down in the villages. str_npc2_home_description_2|I had loaded up on saffron, cinnamon, cloves, pepper and other spices and a chest full of denars. I estimated that I could buy linens, furs, velvet, iron and wool, and the extra horses to carry them back, and I'd still make a profit. I just hadn't figured in the Khergits, who apparently don't care for others cutting in on their monopoly. str_npc3_home_description_2|The poets call Veluca a paradise, and I think for once that they do not exaggerate. str_npc4_home_description_2|How do I know this, you ask? Well... I was taken by them, and held for ransom, but I got away. That's really all there is to tell. str_npc5_home_description_2|Of course, you know how things go. My father's generation were hard warriors from the cold lands across the mountains, but this generation all has houses in the town and great estates and spend time as much trading as they do practicing archery. The next generation will grow soft on Velucan wine and will lose their lands to the next batch of illiterate hill-raiders to come over the mountains, just you watch. It's how things always were, and how things always will be. str_npc6_home_description_2|We men of Suno also never forget an insult, and avenge any wrong done unto us. Old-fashioned Calradic honour, I dare say, has brought me to my current fallen state. But despite that, I am proud to be from this region. Our lord is a vassal of the Swadian king in Praven, but as far as we are concerned he is just yet another barbarian chieftain, and we are the Empire's true heirs. str_npc7_home_description_2|We were allowed to fish the river, raise pigs amid the reedbeds, and grow whatever we could in our private plots, but in the open fields we were only permitted to grow flax, to be taken to Sargoth and woven into linen. So we were always hungry, and weak, and never had the courage to rebel. str_npc8_home_description_2|The skalds' tales at least gave Gundig an excuse to raise a warband -- not that we Nords ever need an excuse, mind. He sailed across the sea, rallied the Calradian Nords to his banner, and marched on the Rock of Rivacheg. The Vaegirs killed him, and threw his banner into the surf. But the Nords keep coming, and some day all of Calradia will be ours. str_npc9_home_description_2|Just as the Nords can call on their kinfolk overseas, so does the Vaegir king call on his kinfolk from over the mountains. Had my father not disinherited me, I would also have taken an oath of fealty to the lord of Reyvadin. But just as I was shorn of my inheritance, so also was I shown of my obligations, and it is the Vaegir king's loss. str_npc10_home_description_2|We grow mulberry trees here for silk and kermes too for the dye. We take it to Jelkala where they weave it into the finest velvet -- not that I have ever had enough denars in my pocket to buy velvet, mind. But the craftsmen of Jelkala also make good crossbows, and for that I'll not begrudge them their little luxuries str_npc11_home_description_2|The Swadian king will tell you that Praven was the biggest city in Calradia back under the Empire, and that's why he should rule the whole land today. Mind you, I don't care much about politics, {sir/madame} -- I've sold provisions to every army that ever marched in Calradia, and I tell you that I wouldn't give a single one of them a single biscuit unless I had the cold, hard denars in my hand first. Why these high and mighty kings and nobles can't pay their bills, I'll never know. But I prattle on a bit, there, don't I? str_npc12_home_description_2|The difference between poison and cure is the dose. You tell that to everyone you meet, and tell them you heard it first from Jeremus the Great. People think that all the wisdom worth knowing was written in Old Calradic, but I say you can learn twice as much from village midwives and careful examination of nature than from the entire imperial corpus. That's why they threw me out of the university, although in retrospect that was a blessing. Anyway, I put that lord back on his feet, and he availed me of a sack of gold and the corpse of a freshly hanged criminal to dissect. Ha! To think of the lengths I had to go to get specimens back in those days. str_npc13_home_description_2|Eventually I had to leave, and sometimes I wonder if there is a little herdsboy swaddled on her back, as she takes the cows up to pasture each morning. I'd be tempted to try to find her -- but no, no, one should never look back. str_npc14_home_description_2|If anyone were ever to unify this little land of ours, I'd sign up to serve them, free of charge. I'd put together an army of Rhodok spears with Nord footmen on the flanks and Vaegir archers in front, take along some Khergit scouts to find and fix the enemy, and some Swadian lancers and Sarranid mamlukes to finish them off. I'd take that army over the mountains and make the whole world kneel to Calradia.... Of course, that's what the Emperors thought, and in the end the tribes took away their Empire. str_npc15_home_description_2|And here's the funny thing -- when the Rhodok lands first rebelled against the Swadians, they all said they weren't going to have any noble lords ruling over them. You can guess how long that lasted. One Rhodok hill chieftain sets himself up in Culmarr, calls himself 'Count', and the good burghers of Jelkala and Veluca have to lick his boots if they want to sell their wine and velvet outside Calradia. And if you want to keep the counts under control, and the peasants providing the towns with food rather than selling to the highest bidder, then you need a King too, don't you? The Rhodok lands are no different than anyone else, whatever guff they talk about 'ancient liberties' and 'freedom.' str_npc16_home_description_2|Still, it was a thin living, and there were always too many mouths around to feed. The Vaegir king and the Khergit khan don't make life any easier for us, squeezing for tax money the villages they control, and raiding for plunder the villages they don't. Of course, I can't say I wouldn't do the same if I had a castle and an army all of my own. The mighty do whatever they can, and the humble do whatever they must. str_npc1_home_recap|I'm from the high steppe, near {s21}. str_npc2_home_recap|I was born over the mountains. I'm a merchant, the son of a merchant, and the grandson of a merchant. str_npc3_home_recap|I used to live in my father's house in {s20}, but I spent much of my childhood in {s21}. str_npc4_home_recap|Our ancestral barony is over the mountains, across the Culdarr pass. str_npc5_home_recap|I was born in the highlands on the other side of the mountains, past Tulga, but I have relatives in {s21}. str_npc6_home_recap|My family lives in {s21}, but I cannot bear to face them. str_npc7_home_recap|I was born in a hovel in the fens, not far from {s21}. str_npc8_home_recap|I was born overseas, in Nordland, and my husband's hall also was in Nordland. str_npc9_home_recap|I am from the Vaegir homeland over the mountains, where the Vaegir lords lived before the Emperor brought them in Calradia. str_npc10_home_recap|Born and raised in Jelkala, {Brother/Sister}, and I hope some day to buy land there. But I had a mind to see a bit of the world first, so I took my crossbow and went off to the wars. str_npc11_home_recap|I was born in the train of an army, and lived all my days in the train of an army. My folk are from Praven, however, so I guess that's as much home to me as anywhere. str_npc12_home_recap|I come from overseas. I travel the world in search of medical lore. str_npc13_home_recap|Oh, far away from here, my {lord/lady}, else you would already have heard about me, and would not need to ask such things. str_npc14_home_recap|I am the younger son of the Count of Geroia. str_npc15_home_recap|I'm from over the hills. But Calradia is where the money is to be made, these days, if your trade is siegecraft. str_npc16_home_recap|Why, captain, I was born in Uslum village, but my mother lost her land to a scheming relative and had to put herself in bond to a nearby lord. str_npc1_honorific|boss str_npc2_honorific|{sir/madame} str_npc3_honorific|{sir/madame} str_npc4_honorific|captain str_npc5_honorific|{playername} Bahadur str_npc6_honorific|captain str_npc7_honorific|captain str_npc8_honorific|{playername} str_npc9_honorific|{my good sir/my good lady} str_npc10_honorific|{Brother/Sister} str_npc11_honorific|{laddie/lassie} -- I mean Captain str_npc12_honorific|captain str_npc13_honorific|oh valorous one str_npc14_honorific|commander str_npc15_honorific|captain str_npc16_honorific|captain str_npc1_kingsupport_1|That's a great idea, Boss. All these kings and khans and landed nobles who rule now, with their prisons and gibbets and scaffolds, the whippings and brandings and hangings for any man who might be driven by the crying of his children to steal a loaf of bread, or maybe a horse -- Calradia deserves something better. str_npc2_kingsupport_1|Well, captain -- I'd support you. I think you'd give Calradia the kind of enlightened rule which it has long needed. str_npc3_kingsupport_1|Well, my lord -- I would worry for you. Our histories tell us that power tends to corrupt. But in the end, I am comforted by the mercy and judgment you have shown as captain of this company. str_npc4_kingsupport_1|Well, captain, I think that you would be the kind of {king/queen} that well-born gentlemen such as myself would be proud to follow into battle... str_npc5_kingsupport_1|A fine idea, Bahadur - you have shown that you know how to govern men. Mind that you govern them justly, though... str_npc6_kingsupport_1|I cannot judge the legal merits of your claim. However, I think that unlike the other kings here, you have the capacity to unify this land -- and that would put a stop to these endless wars, between kingdom and kingdom, noble and noble, and brother and brother, that have brought us all into disgrace in the eyes of the heavens. str_npc7_kingsupport_1|Aye -- you'll do well. You know how to treat bandits and ruffians. str_npc8_kingsupport_1|The saga of Bjernstad tells us that a man who does great deeds, beyond those of the other men of his time, may claim the throne. I'd say that you could make that claim. str_npc9_kingsupport_1|Very good, my lord. I'm a Vaegir by blood, but Yaroglek never stood for me when I was cheated of my inheritance. So I don't owe him anything, and I say, 'Let the throne go to the most valiant!' Which would be you, {sir/my lady}. str_npc10_kingsupport_1|Well, {Brother/Sister}, I suppose there must be {kings/kings and queens}, and if there must be {kings/kings and queens}, then you would be as good a {king/queen} as any... str_npc11_kingsupport_1|Why, that's a fine idea, {laddie/lassie}! I suppose I shall have to learn to call you 'Majesty', or 'Your Grace', then... str_npc12_kingsupport_1|I am sure that you would make a fine king, captain. I flatter myself that I am a good judge of character, and you have demonstrated a capacity for compassion that far exceeds that of these others who call themselves monarchs. str_npc13_kingsupport_1|That would be a fine thing, {sir/my lady}! Many is the tale of the hero who has proven his worthiness to wear a crown through valor. Perhaps you know the song of Antaran son of Ashdab, who rose from obscurity to become king of Dabarah. A splendid tale! str_npc14_kingsupport_1|Well, sir, the heavens have instituted a hierarchy in this world, and normally I would have no truck with usurpation. But I also think that the kings of this land are a weak and sorry lot, not worthy of the name of king, and that leaves the crown free to be taken by a better {man/ruler}, such as yourself. str_npc15_kingsupport_1|Well, you pay your men on time, when you can, generally speaking. That's the best qualification for kingship there is, in my book. You show some respect for the rights of others. str_npc16_kingsupport_1|Why not, captain? I'm sure you'd make a fine {king/queen} -- and of course I'd hope you remember the little people like myself who did you a pretty turn on your scramble to the throne. str_npc1_kingsupport_2|Sure would, Boss. But let me tell you what might bring others to your cause -- particularly us poor folk. They tell us that in the old days, each new Emperor who took the throne would issue a great amnesty for all but the worst prisoners in his dungeons, give people a second chance to make something of themselves -- like you gave me a second chance, Boss. str_npc2_kingsupport_2|Most of the lords of this land -- well, let's just say that they never held a denar that they didn't collect as rent or take as pillage. You, on the other hand, have some experience of commerce and trade, of the effort and risk involved in making sure that men don't go hungry in Sargoth while there's a glut of grain in Praven, to give an example.... If you like, captain, I reckon I could find some support for you among the merchants and burghers of this realm. str_npc3_kingsupport_2|I would, {my lord/my lady}. But I would strongly recommend that you reinstitute an old Calradic imperial tradition -- the council of lords and commons, drawn from both the nobles of the land and well-educated men of property, with the power to overrule any new taxes or other tyrannical measures that might tempt you. It would be for your own good, {sir/my lady}. str_npc4_kingsupport_2|Of course, {captain/my lady}. The trick is now to get others to follow you. As you know, one's lineage is a great determinant of one's worthiness. Perhaps you have a long-lost ancestor of whom you have not told me? str_npc5_kingsupport_2|Ay, Bahadur, I would. But there is something I should say, on behalf of the men of the steppes such as myself. It would bring great joy to us, to hear from the lips of one who would be khan, that you would restore an anicent right. From the days of the old emperors, the men of the steppes have enjoyed the right to bring their flocks to new pastures or to market, which necessarily involves the crossing of lands owned by the great lords of this realm. str_npc6_kingsupport_2|I would. I would tell anyone who listens of your deeds on behalf of the weak and helpless, of your ability to lead men against great odds and triumph, and tell them that if you were to become {king/queen}, there would be one law and one peace -- from the Rhodok highlands to the Vaegir wastes, from the high steppe to the Nordic shore. str_npc7_kingsupport_2|Yes, captain, I would. A {king/queen}'s duty is to keep the roads safe for decent folk, make it so a woman can gather the firewood or draw the water without being accosted by some drooling, scabby ape of an outlaw. Anyway, you've split the skulls of a number of such brutes in your time. Men would fear to even meet the eyes of a woman on the road, if you were {king/queen}. str_npc8_kingsupport_2|I would -- on one condition. You'd be king in Praven or Sargoth or wherever you want to rule, but I'd rule my own hall. And if I had a dispute with any other of your thegns, be it over land, livestock, or blood, you'd let us settle it sword to sword, according to the old ways, and let the heavens decide who is in the right. str_npc9_kingsupport_2|I would, {sir/madame}, and others would too. But here's what I think -- you need to show the noble lords that you'll uphold their ancient rights. Right now, Calradia's a mess -- the lord owns the land, except it's the king who owns the forest, but the city has the right to levy tax at its gates, and the commons can use the pastures on odd Tuesdays, except in Rivacheg when it's Wednesday. Who can remember? So I say you make things simple, like it was in the old days -- first the {king/sovereign}, then the lords, then everyone else. str_npc10_kingsupport_2|Certainly, {Brother/Sister}. But I'd ask that you consider a thought of mine. If you became {king/queen}, then I'd ask you open your court to the common folks, and not just to the lords and blue-bloods. I'd ask you to let it be known that should any man be judged and sentenced, that he have the right to appeal to you directly. Right now, the lords have the right -- I say every man in Calradia should have it, too. str_npc11_kingsupport_2|Of course, I would! Let me see your hand, there... Aha! You've got the 'Mark of Kings.' That's what we call it in Praven, anyway. I hear in Suno it's the 'Emperor's Line,' but they call everything differently, over there. Anyway, yours is very long -- I'd say that it means that you're meant to rule! It's your destiny! In fact, I think I can even recall a prophecy to that effect. Hmm, how did it go... str_npc12_kingsupport_2|Of course, captain. But if I have learned anything in my travels in this land, it is that Calradians are sticklers for precedent. Everything must be done as it was done in the days of the old Empire -- even though not more than one in a hundred of them can read enough Old Calradic to understand the chronicles! Veluca merchants marry their daughters according to the 'imperial' rite. Rivacheg cattle herders churn 'imperial' butter. And of course, every king must be crowned according to 'imperial' law. str_npc13_kingsupport_2|Of course, {my lord/my lady}. Also, as we learn from the tale of Antaran, when claiming a throne, it does not hurt to be the subject of an epic, recited around campfires and hearthfires, describing one's deeds. As you no doubt know, I fancy myself a fair crafter of couplets. str_npc14_kingsupport_2|I would indeed, sir. I think you can unite this land, and then we'll be able to raise an army such as Calradia has not seen for many generations -- Swadian lances, Vaegir archers, Rhodok spears, Sarranid swords, Nord axes, and Khergit skirmishers, and take it over the mountains to subdue all the lands that the Calradic emperors once held sway. str_npc15_kingsupport_2|I would. People might say that you don't have royal blood in your veins. But as far as I've seen, royal blood makes you a skinflint. Kings and nobles will take out loans or commission building projects without half a thought to how they're ever going to pay back all those commoners who expect to eat after an honest day's work. If you ask me, an honest tongue makes a {man/woman} a {king/queen}, not a fancy pedigree. str_npc16_kingsupport_2|Of course, my {lord/lady}. And what's more, I figure a girl like me could do you a bit of a service raising support with the lords of this land. I may have only had a small part in their schemes and intrigues over the years, but I think I know what they want. And given what I know of their secrets, they'd not want to be denying me admission to their halls, now would they? str_npc1_kingsupport_2a|Please go on... str_npc2_kingsupport_2a|Please continue... str_npc3_kingsupport_2a|Please continue... str_npc4_kingsupport_2a|Of course - let me tell you all about him. str_npc5_kingsupport_2a|Please go on... str_npc6_kingsupport_2a|Splendid str_npc7_kingsupport_2a|Well, yes, I will try to keep order... str_npc8_kingsupport_2a|Fair enough str_npc9_kingsupport_2a|That seems sensible enough... str_npc10_kingsupport_2a|Of course - I would give my subjects that right str_npc11_kingsupport_2a|See if you can recall that prophesy. str_npc12_kingsupport_2a|Interesting. Please go on... str_npc13_kingsupport_2a|Why, yes, that you are. str_npc14_kingsupport_2a|Please go on... str_npc15_kingsupport_2a|Well-spoken, my good man str_npc16_kingsupport_2a|Interesting... Please continue str_npc1_kingsupport_2b|Well. We saw how that turned out... str_npc2_kingsupport_2b|I do not ask for their support, as they would no doubt wish to make a profit on the transaction. str_npc3_kingsupport_2b|I have no intention of hobbling myself in that way. str_npc4_kingsupport_2b|I will have no part of this str_npc5_kingsupport_2b|I said that I wished to be {king/queen}, not that I wished to involve myself in the minutiae of nomadism str_npc6_kingsupport_2b|I'm not sure that I can quite deliver all that str_npc7_kingsupport_2b|I think you're maybe taking the idea of the king's peace a bit too far, there str_npc8_kingsupport_2b|That's a pretty tall condition str_npc9_kingsupport_2b|I'm not sure that implementing your idea would be as 'simple' as you think str_npc10_kingsupport_2b|Hmm. Let me think it over. str_npc11_kingsupport_2b|Ah... I'll have my hand back, please. str_npc12_kingsupport_2b|Enough, sir. I will not have you mock our traditions str_npc13_kingsupport_2b|Hmm. I'm not sure about that. str_npc14_kingsupport_2b|Actually, I was looking forward to a bit of rest after becoming {king/queen}... str_npc15_kingsupport_2b|{King/Queen} of the Clerks, maybe, Enough of such talk str_npc16_kingsupport_2b|No offense, but I'm not sure that's the approach I'd take str_npc1_kingsupport_3|If I could go about this land for a few weeks, telling the common folk that you were going to amnesty their kinfolk like the emperors of old -- well, they would start talking of you as the Emperor, and that would pave your way to the throne. Shall I do that, Boss? str_npc3_kingsupport_3|If you were to make such a pledge, {sir/madame}, I think that it would help many of the lords of this land overcome any reluctance that they might have. If your aim is to restore the old Calradic system, then arguably you are a more legitimate {king/ruler} then any of these come-lately usurpers. Give me leave for several weeks, {sir/madame}, and I will let it be known in the noble courts and merchant houses of this land that you intend to restore their ancient rights. str_npc4_kingsupport_3|Yes -- I think I have heard of that line, In fact, I can envision {his/her} entire genealogy. If you give me leave, 'Majesty', I shall travel about the villages and castles of this realm over the next several weeks, spreading word of your royal birth. Of course, I would hope that you would remember your faithful subject, when it comes to distributing lands... str_npc5_kingsupport_3|Anyway, lord, in these sorry times the men of the great estates have taken to blocking our passage, charging us huge fees to cross. It is a great burden on my people, Bahadur. If I could take a few weeks to let the men of the steppes know that you would support the restoration of our ancient rights, well, then, I think you would find many who would support you as khan, And when men speak of you as khan, that's the first step to becoming one. str_npc6_kingsupport_3|Very well. Although I am now a stranger to my family, I have entered many a noble's hall in your train, and I reckon I would be welcome again. I shall go about this land and tell the nobles that when you are {king/queen}, you will strive your hardest to protect the weak and to crush discord, so that no man will raise his hand against another with impunity, and one day, perhaps, the sin of fraticide will be no more. str_npc7_kingsupport_3|I'll tell you what, captain. Give me a few weeks and I'll go to some of these villages -- stinking hovels that they are, but I reckon I can take care of myself these days. I'll tell the people there that once you unify this land, you'll wipe it clean of banditry. You'll erect gallows along the roads and keep them well-stocked with broken-necked thieves, so that every passerby knows that the wages of indecency is death. str_npc8_kingsupport_3|Good! Then give me a few weeks and I'll go about the courts of this land, letting it be known that you're a {king/ruler} who respects the thegns and their ancient rights. You won't go sticking your royal nose where it doesn't belong, and Calradia will be the better for it. str_npc9_kingsupport_3|It's perfectly sensible, {sir/madame} -- and we'll be free of those cursed writs and burghers' petitions and scrolls that take up all of my time and yours, when we should both be out fighting for the glory of your kingdom. Give me leave and I'll spread word among the noble lords of this land that you're here to restore the old ways, and I'll bet there will plenty who will follow you into battle. str_npc10_kingsupport_3|Well then, {Brother/Sister}, give me leave for a few weeks and I can go about this land, letting the common folk know that you will rule justly and equitably, and that lord and common alike should be one before your law. Men will speak of you as {king/queen}, and that's a good start to becoming one... str_npc11_kingsupport_3|I can't recall now, but if you let me go back to my home, I could find an old greybeard who remembers it in full. And, I could put it around that you've got the mark of kings on your hand! There's many where I come from who are waiting for a just ruler, and a man's hands tell all that's worth knowing about him. Give me a few weeks, and I'll reckon I can have quite a few expecting you to be their next {king/queen}. str_npc12_kingsupport_3|But you know what? There was no 'imperial' law when it came to the crown. Sometimes one emperor handed the empire to his son. Sometimes he split it between his generals. Sometimes one emperor murdered the last. There's no right 'Calradic' way to crown a {king/king or queen}, and thus it makes sense that the crown should go to the one most fit to govern -- which would be you, naturally. Give me a couple of weeks, and I'll write a tract which proves it and find a copyist to post a version in every town tavern in the land. What do you say to that idea, captain? str_npc13_kingsupport_3|Then give me leave for a few weeks, oh gallant one, and I will spin such a tale as would stir even the dullest heart, inspiring admiration for your virtues, compassion for your hardships, and indignation at those who would stand in your way. I assume, of course, that I would be able to take a certain amount of poetic license with the details? str_npc14_kingsupport_3|Give me leave for a few weeks, {sir/madame}, and I will let all the worthy men of this land know that you are the one to unite not just Calradia, but all the other Calradic dominions. For according to my thinking, no one should be {king/king or queen} here unless they have the capacity to rule the entirety of the realm -- and you alone have demonstrated such a capacity, {sir/madamge}. str_npc15_kingsupport_3|I'm glad you think so. Here's what I suggest. I know men in the guilds here, men like me, who've been shafted and shaken down until they can take no more. Here's what I'll tell them -- you're honest. You respect the burghers. You'll pay your debts. You won't beggar your subjects. str_npc16_kingsupport_3|Give me leave for a few weeks, and I'll do a little tour of my former employers' castles. I'll sing them a pretty song about what you'll do as {king/queen}, about all the ancient freedoms you'll restore -- let them rob their tenants and tax the merchants and fight their wars and spend themselves silly without a thought to tomorrow, as a noble ought! What do you say to that, captain? str_npc1_kingsupport_objection|Boss -- you've given leave to Alayen to go tell the nobles that they will have rights over pasture, market, and forest? I can't say I like that. Give him his way, and he'll set up gibbets in every village in the land, where there will dangle some poor sod like me who thought he might pick up a bow, head to the woods and put a bit of meat on his table. str_npc2_kingsupport_objection|Um, captain. Matheld has ridden off to tell the lords of this land that you'll let them settle their quarrels by force and violence. You know they rarely actually fight each other, right? Most of the time, it's the traders and travellers on the roads between their castles that get clobbered in their petty disputes. Any excuse to shake down a caravan, they'll take. I really hope that she misunderstood you, sir. str_npc3_kingsupport_objection|Captain -- Deshavi has set off on some sort of expedition, which she says that you countenanced. She says that she will go about the villages of this land, telling the poor villagers that once you are {king/queen}, you intend to hang all thieves and bandits. {Sir/Madame}, I am a merchant's daughter, and know well the scourge of banditry. I also know that Deshavi has suffered great wrongs. But surely you do not intend to hang men indiscriminately. There must be some place for mercy in your kingdom str_npc4_kingsupport_objection|Captain. Artimenner has set off on a journey, telling the burghers that you claim the throne because you know how to balance your accounts. That's nonsense. Nobles and kings fight and rule. If they had to haggle over wages and overruns with every passing vagabond who ever did a scrap of work on their estates, then there would be nothing but disorder and chaos. str_npc5_kingsupport_objection|{playername} Bahadur -- I overhead what you told Ymira. But I wonder -- if the lords who live from farming, and the merchants who earn from trade, are allowed to determine what taxes will be leveed, then who will be taxed? Those who live from flocks, of course -- my people, the people of the steppes. I would have nothing to do with these councils, Bahadur -- all free men should be one, under the khan, and that is the end of it. str_npc6_kingsupport_objection|I understand that you have dispatched Rolf to fabricate a claim of royal descent. I have to tell you, {sir/madame} -- I do not think that the heavens will smile on such an attempt to take the throne by fraud. str_npc7_kingsupport_objection|I have heard what you told Bunduk, about giving every common criminal the right of appeal to the {king/ruler}. I do not approve. Bandits should be hanged when caught. Give them a trial or an appeal, and they will talk their way out of the noose. Bunduk is a good man, but no man can fully understand what these wolves in human form do to women str_npc8_kingsupport_objection|Captain -- you have dispatched Firentis to tell the lords of this land that you intend to impose a peace, under which no one should settle their disputes by the sword. Would you have us all die in our beds, then? That is a great shame, for my people. A {king/sovereign}'s duty is to lead us into battle, not to tell us how to handle our quarrels and differences. str_npc9_kingsupport_objection|{Sir/Madame} -- it is with great regret that I have learned that you have told Baheshtur to let his people know that you will allow them to lead their flocks over the lands of their betters. I hope that I am mistaken about this, sir. The money we demand is but small compensation for the damage they cause to our flocks and the pollution of our water sources. My {lord/lady}, if your future kingdom is to be some nomads' paradise, then I for one do not look forward to it. str_npc10_kingsupport_objection|I hear that you've got Nizar spinning poems to justify your ascent to the throne. I can't say I approve, {Brother/Sister}. If men fight for a {king/sovereign}, it should be because they know they're going to get something good out of it, not because they've taken a liking to a silly song. str_npc11_kingsupport_objection|I hear that Lezalit is off and about telling folks that you're going to make yourself {king/queen} and then lead an army over the mountains. Shall there be no end to these wars, {laddie/lassie}? I was thinking that if you made yourself {king/queen}, then maybe you'd give us a bit of peace. But I guess the heavens have made Calradian blood to be spilt, and Calradian bones to be broken, and there's no getting round their decree. str_npc12_kingsupport_objection|Captain. I hear that you've gone and made Klethi, of all people, some sort of ambassador to the aristocracy. I shudder to think of what that amoral girl might be promising them on your behalf -- and dignifying all these gross indulgences by calling them 'ancient freedoms.' By doing this, you mock those of us who who had hoped that you would have helped Calradia escape its bloody past, and move towards a new age of peace and learning. Enough, I have said my peace. str_npc13_kingsupport_objection|Oh valiant one -- I hear that you have given leave to Jeremus to produce some testily-worded dissertation that undermines everything the people of this land hold dear, and accuses the old emperors of murder and usurpation. Captain -- I know as a poet that people must have heroes to emulate, and a golden age to restore. Will you create a kingdom in which cynics and scholars tell us what we must believe? I can think of nothing more dull. str_npc14_kingsupport_objection|I understand that you've sent your man Borcha to proclaim to all Calradia that you intend to free all the miscreants of this land upon your accession to the throne. What a foul idea... Men must be governed, {sir/madame} -- with whips and chains and the noose, if necessary. You'll find that out the hard way if you become {king/queen}, I'll warrant. str_npc15_kingsupport_objection|I understand that you've given leave to Katrin to spread some nonsense about marks on your hands. I just want to say that, as an educated man, I find it disturbing that you would resort to old women's superstitions to back your claim. Village women will believe one thing one day, another thing the next. Now a horoscope, properly cast by an astrologer at a royal university with a reputation to uphold, might tell you something worth knowing, but those have not been performed in Calradia for some time. str_npc16_kingsupport_objection|Oy -- Captain! I hear that Marnid's gone off to sing a pretty song to the merchants, on how you'll hand them Calradia on a silver platter for them to feast upon, smack their lips, and suck the marrow from the bones. I hope that's just a tale you're telling. A noble lord will at least toss a few coppers to the poor when he holds his feasts, and will make sure that the servants go home with full bellies. A merchant marries his daughter, and you'd be lucky to get a few crusts and scraps of gristle from the table. That's my experience, anyway. str_npc1_intel_mission|Well, Boss, as it happens, I have a few cousins over in {s17}, and unlike some in my family, they can still stand the sight of me. They deal in horses --- I've even been able to supply them with stock from time to time -- and so they get to pick up a bit of the gossip round the castles and great halls of the {s18}. I could go over there for a few days and tell you what I find out. str_npc2_intel_mission|{Sir/My lady}, if you're interested in events in {s18}, I can still make contact with my old trading partners in {s17}. They're usually well-informed about political events. str_npc3_intel_mission|Captain, although I cannot return to my father's house in {s17}, I still may make contact with my sister. She will be privy to the councils of the great merchant houses, and may tell us much about the state of the {s18}. str_npc4_intel_mission|Captain, if you could spare me for a few days, I would like to look up an old comrade-in-arms in {s17}, who has from time to time led a small company in the pay of the {s18}. He is a good man, the kind who speaks little and listens much. I'm sure over a drink or two he might let us know which way the political winds are blowing in those parts. str_npc5_intel_mission|If you like, {playername} Bahadur, I can take a few days to visit my mother's sister's people. They work in a caravanserie in {s17}, and hear the news from all across the {s18}. They may have some gossip about the feuds and rivaries of the great lords, if that is of interest to you. str_npc6_intel_mission|Captain -- while I am not strictly welcome in {s17}, I would be able to make contact with some former tenants of an estate of mine nearby. I granted them ownership after my abrupt departure, and they are now well-placed in society, and also less inclined than most to hold my crime against me. If you give me a few days, I may be able to collect some interesting information about the {s18}. str_npc7_intel_mission|Captain. When I left my former home in {s17}, I had promised myself that I would never return, except for the purposes of taking out vengeance on those who wronged me. Perhaps I was rash. I am occasionally curious as to how my family is getting along. Perhaps I can bring them some gifts, to let them know what I have made of myself! Any rate, they are wretched people, but just as a cringing dog keeps its ear to the wind, so do they. They may have useful information about the {s18}, if you would give me a few days to pay them a visit. str_npc8_intel_mission|If you have any interest in the events in the {s18}, a former shield-companion of mine retired and now keeps a farm near {s17}. He keeps in contact with a number of other old warriors. I could visit him for a few days, and learn more about what is going on there. str_npc9_intel_mission|{Sir/My lady} -- it has been some time since I sampled the delights of {s17}, where gentlefolk such as myself are wont to partake of the hospitality of the most puissant and generous lord. If you wish, I could perhaps go there, and let you know something about the concerns that weigh on the minds of the great peers of the {s18}. str_npc10_intel_mission|Captain -- I was thinking that some of my old mates in the garrison at {s17} would be glad to see me. They are good lads, and would never betray the city, but like me they have no particular affection for the bluebloods that command them, and may be willing to slip a little political gossip our way. The gentry are always falling out over one little thing or the other, but the lads might be able to know if there's real dissent brewing. str_npc11_intel_mission|{Laddie/Lassie} -- I was thinking that it's been a while since I visited my kinfolk in {s17}. They've been kind enough to me over the years, helping me out during the lean times, so I feel I'd like to share some of my newfound fortune with them. I've also bought wholesale enough times from the Praven grain merchants for them to trust me. I'd reckon they might be persuaded to spill a few tidbits about events in the {s18}, if that would interest you. str_npc12_intel_mission|If you wish, Captain, I would not mind taking the time to pay a visit to a pupil of mine, now employed by the lord of {s17}. I had great hopes for him, but I have heard that he has lately endorsed the use of muskmelon for the treatment of palsy, on the grounds that its cold essence offsets an abundance of yellow bile. This is a travesty of medicine, and I must journey there swiftly to correct him. While I am there, if you wish, I could question him on the latest trends within the {s18}, a matter which may interest you. str_npc13_intel_mission|Oh valiant one! With your permission, I was thinking that I might pay a visit to the dales near {s17}. I try not to revisit old pastures, but I must confess a certain curiosity as to how a comely shepherdess of my former acquaintance is getting along. On the way, I may attempt to stop in at the castle. I suspect that it would not be terribly difficult for me to charm my way into the lord's hall, and I may be able to provide you with the latest news from the {s18}. str_npc14_intel_mission|Captain... As you may know, I helped train the garrison of {s17}. One of their number has lately been in touch with me, and suggests that if I were to visit him, he could pass me information on events within the {s18}. I am willing to do this, if you can spare me. While it is a great disgrace to be a traitor, there is no dishonor in making use of one. str_npc15_intel_mission|Captain. As you may know, I have for some time harbored a wish to go to {s17}, and study the masonry -- one of the finest examples of the old Calradic style. As it happens, one of my colleagues is currently engaged there doing repair work on the curtain wall. While his sense of professional obligation I think would prevent him, rightfully, from disclosing to me any weaknesses in its defenses, I suspect that he would not be averse to offering up his opinion on the general state of the {s18}, if that is of interest to you. str_npc16_intel_mission|Oy, Captain! I had a mind to pay a visit to my old haunts at {s17}. Let's just say that the lord and lady of the place had commissioned a certain service from me, and had been a bit lax about payment. However, a certain sparkly bauble in the lady's possession will fit the bill nicely. I see no need to trouble them by letting them know about my visit, but I could have a wee chat with my old friend the castle steward, who'll be letting me into the place, about goings-on in the {s18}. str_npc1_fief_acceptance|You'd make me lord of {s17}, Boss? Well, that would be the kindest thing that anyone has ever done for me in a long time. Heh. I'll make the most of it -- you can count on that. I have to say, though -- I'm not sure how the other lords of this realm will react, when they find old Borcha in their august company. str_npc2_fief_acceptance|{s17} as a fief? Well, I've always thought in terms of buying and selling goods, not in terms of governing anything. But now that you mention it, I bet I could make that place turn a fair bit of revenue. I thank you, {my Lord/my lady} -- this is a very kind turn that you have done me. str_npc3_fief_acceptance|{Sire/My lady}, it is most generous of you to offer me {s17}. I would be pleased to hold it, and dedicate myself to the moral and material uplift of its inhabitants. str_npc4_fief_acceptance|It is good of you to grant me {s17} as a fief -- and most appropriate. Proud indeed is the king who has a baron of the House of Rolf as {his/her} vassal. str_npc5_fief_acceptance|Bahadur -- I would be most pleased to hold {s17}. I will send word to the hills, to my kinsmen, and let them know that there is honorable gold to be earned serving under me in your armies -- and they will come flocking to fight for you! str_npc6_fief_acceptance|{Sir/Lady} -- I am surprised that you find me worthy to govern men, as I am just beginning to learn to govern myself. But if you indeed wish it, I would be most honored to hold {s17} in your name, and dedicate myself to the protection of those who live there. str_npc7_fief_acceptance|Aye, I'll hold {s17} -- and give it a reputation that strikes fear in the hearts of thieves and brigands across Calradia. Thank you, {sire/madame}, for this opportunity. str_npc8_fief_acceptance|You'd make me a thegn? Well, I suppose that I can postpone reclaiming my inheritance for a little while longer, and make my great hall at {s17}. Some day, I may travel over the seas to take back what is mine, but until then, I would be pleased to raise a band of battle-hardened Nords to fight under your banner. str_npc9_fief_acceptance|{Sire/My lady}, I was cheated of my inheritance -- but now, with this offer of this estate, you make right what was wrong. It would give me the greatest honor to serve you, to fight for you, and to hold this land in fief to you. str_npc10_fief_acceptance|You'd make me a lord? Well, no thank you -- but if you would call me 'tribune' -- the tribunes being the people's servants in the old times -- then I suppose I could bring myself to run {s17} for you. I'd put food in the bellies of the hungry, and raise a fine force of Rhodok foot to fight on your behalf, {Brother/Sister}. But I can't promise that the real blue-bloods will enjoy rubbing shoulders with me in your councils. str_npc11_fief_acceptance|Ay! You'd grant old Katrin a title of nobility? Well, I'd be daft to turn you down, now wouldn't I? My, the strange turns that life takes... Fancy this old bag of bones becoming a great peer of the realm of Calradia. str_npc12_fief_acceptance|Well, {sire/my lady}, I'd have you know that don't believe in the holding of land in fief to the king. Farmers and landholders should govern their own affairs, under the distant watch of the sovereign. That being said, Calradia has seen far too much bloodshed for us to turn the social order on its head right now. Give me that land, and I'll endeavor to prepare it for a brighter future -- if not in this generation, than perhaps in the next. str_npc13_fief_acceptance|How generous and kind of you, {sire/my lady}. Allow me to express the utmost reverence for your wisdom in selecting me. Truly, your perspicacity exceeds that of King Laminur, who could read the character of a man from a single hair of his head. Your judgment surpasses that of the Emperor Akembra, to whom even the jinns submitted their disputes. Anyway, I accept. str_npc14_fief_acceptance|You do me a great honor, captain. In Geroia, a youngest son such as myself has few opportunities to earn a fief of his own. But here, in Calradia, there is still the chance for a man to win with his sword what was denied him by his birth! I shall hold {s17} as your vassal, and raise an army to fight for your glory and for mine. str_npc15_fief_acceptance|Well, {sir/my lady}, that's a gracious act, and marks you as the kind of monarch who can save this sorry land from the incompetence of the current batch. I suspect a lot of the noble lords around here will think that a commoner like me isn't fit to hold a fief. Well, when they see what I do with it, and what revenues I can bring in, they'll change their tune! str_npc16_fief_acceptance|Oh, that's most generous of you, {sire/my lady}. I've been in and out of many a great hall or manor -- not always with the master's permission, I should add -- but I never thought I'd own one myself. Let me think... When I collect my first year's rents, what baubles shall I buy myself? str_npc3_woman_to_woman|My lady, if you don't mind me saying -- I think by now you have proven yourself to be one of the great warriors of this realm. Yet strangely, no king has come forward to offer you a fief. Perhaps it is because you are a woman. No matter -- I personally believe that you will take your place among the great lords of this realm, even if you have to fight twice as long and twice as hard to receive your due! str_npc7_woman_to_woman|Captain. If you don't mind me saying, you have fought long and hard against the scum of Calradia, and with their defeat, you make this land a better place. You are well deserving of a fief of your own -- and I suspect that if you were not a woman, a king would have offered you one by now. That is the way of the men in this sorry land they let us stand in the front of the battleline to take the enemy's blows, but when it comes to a division of the spoils, they expect us to head to the rear. str_npc8_woman_to_woman|Excuse me, {playername}. I would like to offer you my congratulations -- it seems that you are well on your way to making a name for yourself as a warrior to be feared. If you were a man, I suspect the kings of this land would be falling over themselves to make you their vassal. Alas, in this world, women like ourselves must fight twice as hard to receive what is only our due. str_npc11_woman_to_woman|Aye, lassie, I just can't help thinking to myself -- you've made quite a name for yourself, haven't you? Fighting and marching up and down the length of the land. Why, I suspect if you were a man, some king would have offered you a fief by now. Well, you may still get what you deserve -- you'll just have to prove yourself a bit more. str_npc16_woman_to_woman|Oy, Captain -- if you don't mind me saying, you've made quite a name for yourself in these parts. I suspect that if you were a man, a king would have offered you a fief by now. But we ladies should come to expect things like that. Men will find any excuse not to reward us for our work, so if we take a fancy to a bit of land somewhere, maybe we should just reach out and take it. That's the way I look at the world, anyway. str_npc1_turn_against|I'm sorry that we meet like this, boss. There's no question that I owe my rise in life to you. You doubtless think me ungrateful. However, one has to follow one's destiny -- isn't that correct? str_npc2_turn_against|This is a sad day. I never thought that I might meet my old captain on the field of battle. Even if I triumph, it will bring me no joy. str_npc3_turn_against|Oh {playername} -- what a tragic turn our lives have taken! I can only hope that the tides of war that have made us enemies, will one day allow us to be friends. str_npc4_turn_against|Aye, well.... I'm not sure what to say. If we must fight, let's get it over with. str_npc6_turn_against|It grieves me more than anything I can say to meet you like this, {playername}. I shall not dwell on the circumstances that have led us to this point. I can only hope that we may one day be reconciled. str_npc7_turn_against|Well, captain. You made of me a great lady, and for that I am grateful. However, you did not buy me, and now the circumstances have caused us our interests to clash, I can meet you in battle with a clear conscience. Still, I hope some day that circumstances may change again, and we may meet as friends. str_npc8_turn_against|So we now we meet as enemies, and may shortly face each other over the rims of our shields. A grim day this is. Sometimes, the spinners of our fate have a dark sense of humor. str_npc9_turn_against|I will not accept fault for the circumstances which have led us to become enemies. I want you to know that my conscience is clear, although my heart is heavy. str_npc10_turn_against|Well, it looks like the tides of fate have led me to make war on my old captain. Maybe things started to go wrong when you became my liege -- I suppose I was never much suited to vassalage. Anyway, here we are now. Maybe, when the world is changed and there are no more masters and servants, or lords and vassals, then we can meet together as friends. str_npc11_turn_against|Great heaven, {laddie/lassie}. So now it looks like you and I are enemies. Didn't I say that life takes us on some very strange turns? Destiny sometimes has a cruel sense of humor -- I'll say that much. str_npc12_turn_against|So, it seems we must fight. I would have you know, {sir/my lady}, that I have not betrayed you. I had never served you as a man, but served the principles which I believed you upheld. As you no longer uphold them, I must do my best to thwart you. But I bear you no ill will, and I hope that we can meet again some day as friends str_npc13_turn_against|It is sad to meet you as my enemy, Captain -- but on the other hand, to meet such a titan of the battlefield as yourself in combat is a rare privilege. Truly, the news of our contest today shall keep the bards and poets of Calradia in wine and silver for months to come, do you think? str_npc14_turn_against|Well, {playername}. We meet as enemies. I confess that I have mixed feelings. It grieves me to make war on you, but if we meet in battle and I prevail, I will have defeated the worthiest foe in all Calradia, and I will know that my mastery of the military art is complete! str_npc15_turn_against|Ah... I have not been looking forward to this day. I just want to say that in my sight, if you'd kept your faith in me, things would never have come to this. But no doubt you see it differently. str_npc16_turn_against|Hello, Captain! So, I guess we're enemies! One small word of warning if we end up fighting each other -- once the rage of battle hits me, I can't always account for my actions. Just know that whatever I do, it's not personal. Maybe if we both walk away from this, we can meet once more as friends? str_comment_intro_liege_affiliated|I am told that you are pledged to one of the pretenders who disputes my claim to the crown of Calradia. But we may still talk. str_comment_intro_famous_liege|Your fame runs before you! Perhaps it is time that you sought a liege worthy of your valor. str_comment_intro_famous_martial|Your fame runs before you! Perhaps we shall test each other's valor in a tournament, or on the battlefield! str_comment_intro_famous_badtempered|I've heard of you. Well, I'm not one for bandying words, so if you have anything to say, out with it. str_comment_intro_famous_pitiless|I know your name. It strikes fear in men's hearts. That is good. Perhaps we should speak together, some time. str_comment_intro_famous_cunning|Ah, yes. At last we meet. You sound like a good {man/woman} to know. Let us speak together, from time to time. str_comment_intro_famous_sadistic|I know your name -- and from what I hear, I'll warrant that many a grieving widow knows too. But that is no concern of mine. str_comment_intro_famous_goodnatured|I've heard of you! It's very good to finally make your acquaintance. str_comment_intro_famous_upstanding|I know your name. They say you are a most valiant warrior. I can only hope that your honour and mercy matches your valor. str_comment_intro_noble_liege|I see that you carry a {nobleman's/noble's} banner, although I do not recognize the device. Know that I am always looking for good {men/warriors} to fight for me, once they prove themselves to be worthy of my trust. str_comment_intro_noble_martial|I see that you carry a nobleman's banner, but I do not recognize the device. No matter -- a brave {man's/warrior's} home is all the world, or so they say! str_comment_intro_noble_badtempered|I don't recognize the device on your banner. No doubt another foreigner come to our lands, as if we didn't have so many here already. str_comment_intro_noble_pitiless|I see that you carry a nobleman's banner, but I do not recognize the device. Another vulture come to grow fat on the leftovers of war, no doubt! str_comment_intro_noble_cunning|I see that you carry a nobleman's banner, but I do not recognize the device. Still, it is always worthwhile to make the acquaintance of {men/women} who may one day prove themselves to be great warriors. str_comment_intro_noble_sadistic|I see that you carry a nobleman's banner, but I do not recognize the device. Perhaps you are the bastard {son/daughter} of a puffed-up cattle thief? Or perhaps you stole it? str_comment_intro_noble_goodnatured|I see that you carry a nobleman's banner, but I do not recognize the device. Forgive my ignorance, {sir/my lady}! It is good to make your acquaintance. str_comment_intro_noble_upstanding|I see that you carry a nobleman's banner, but I do not recognize the device. No doubt you have come to Calradia in search of wealth and glory. If this indeed is the case, then I only ask that you show mercy to those poor souls caught in the path of war. str_comment_intro_common_liege|You may be of common birth, but know that I am always looking for good men to fight for me, if they can prove themselves to be worthy of my trust. str_comment_intro_common_martial|Perhaps you are not of gentle birth, but even a commoner, be {he/she} of sufficient valor, may make something of {himself/herself} some day. str_comment_intro_common_badtempered|Speak quickly, if you have anything to say, for I have no time to be bandying words with common soldiers of fortune. str_comment_intro_common_pitiless|You have the look of a mercenary, another vulture come to grow fat on the misery of this land. str_comment_intro_common_cunning|Well... I have not heard of you, but you have the look of a {man/woman} who might make something of {himself/herself}, some day. str_comment_intro_common_sadistic|Normally I cut the throats of impudent commoners who barge into my presence uninvited, but I am in a good mood today. str_comment_intro_common_goodnatured|Well, you look like a good enough sort. str_comment_intro_common_upstanding|Peace to you, and always remember to temper your valor with mercy, your courage with honour. str_comment_intro_female_famous_liege|I have heard much about you. Some men may fear a woman who is versed in the art of war, but I for one will not turn away hands that can grip a sword, should their owner be brave and loyal. str_comment_intro_female_famous_martial|I have heard much about you. They say that you are the equal of even the bravest of men in your prowess at arms. Perhaps one day I shall try my valor against yours, either in a tournament or on the battlefield! str_comment_intro_female_famous_badtempered|I've heard of talk of you -- the woman who knows how to fight like a man. str_comment_intro_female_famous_pitiless|I know your name. It strikes fear in men's hearts. That is good. Perhaps we should speak together, some time. str_comment_intro_female_famous_cunning|Ah, yes. At last we meet. You sound like a good woman to know. Let us speak together, from time to time. str_comment_intro_female_famous_sadistic|I know your name -- and from what I hear, I'll warrant that many a grieving widow knows too. But that is no concern of mine. str_comment_intro_female_famous_goodnatured|I've heard of you! It's very good to finally make your acquaintance. str_comment_intro_female_famous_upstanding|I know your name. They say you are a most valiant warrior. I can only hope that your honour and mercy matches your valor. str_comment_intro_female_noble_liege|It is not often that I meet a woman who aspires to lead men into battle. But these are dark and troubled times, and I for one will not turn away hands that can grip a sword, should their owner be brave and loyal. str_comment_intro_female_noble_martial|I do not recognize the device on your banner, but clearly you are a lady of rank. Please consider me your most humble servant. str_comment_intro_female_noble_badtempered|I don't recognize the device on that banner. Clearly another foreigner come to our lands, bringing their strange ways. str_comment_intro_female_noble_pitiless|I see that you carry a noble's banner, but I do not recognize the device... You should know, lady, that in Calradia it is the men to ride to war, and if you seek to overturn the natural order of things, you will find your fair head stuck on a pike -- like that of any other rebel! str_comment_intro_female_noble_cunning|It is not unheard-of for a woman to seek her fortune on the battlefields of Calradia, but neither is it usual. I shall be most interested in your progress. str_comment_intro_female_noble_sadistic|You appear to be of noble rank, but I don't recognize your banner. Clearly, another foreigner come to our shores -- no doubt from a land where men are weak, and the women ride to war in their place! str_comment_intro_female_noble_goodnatured|I see that you carry a nobleman's banner, but I do not recognize the device. Forgive my ignorance,, my lady! It is good to make your acquaintance. str_comment_intro_female_noble_upstanding|It is not every day that we see a woman caparisoned for war. Please do not take this amiss, my lady, for you have every right to protect yourself, but I cannot pretend to be fully comfortable with your decision to fight in battle. I would prefer that women be untouched by these wars, as I believe the female to be the custodian of what little gentility and tenderness remains to us. str_comment_intro_female_admiring_liege|It is not often that I meet a woman who aspires to lead men into battle. But these are dark and troubled times, and I for one will not turn away hands that can grip a sword, should their owner be brave and loyal. str_comment_intro_female_admiring_martial|Greetings, my lady. Although I see from your demeanor that you are not a conventional maiden, I hope that you are not averse to a declaration of admiration from me, your most humble servant. str_comment_intro_female_badtempered_admiring|Heh. Fancy this -- a maiden, all equipped for war. Well, it's a strange sight, but in your case, I can imagine that it might grow on me. str_comment_intro_female_pitiless_admiring|It is unusual to see a woman girt for war. Be careful, my lady -- it is a harsh world, and it would be a shame to see such beauty marred by a sword-blow. str_comment_intro_female_cunning_admiring|Greetings, my lady. Please do not think it forward, if I say that it is unusual to see a woman caparisoned for war. I hope that one day I may be the father of a daughter possessed of such bravery and spirit. str_comment_intro_female_sadistic_admiring|What have we here! A woman, caparisoned for war! Well, I dare say that one as fair as you could lend a touch of femininity even to a mail hauberk. str_comment_intro_female_admiring_goodnatured|My lady, if you are skilled as arms as you are fair in countenance, then your enemies should indeed fear you! str_comment_intro_female_admiring_upstanding|Greetings, my lady. Even with the dust of the march upon your clothes and gear, I can see that you are not lacking in the graces of your noble sex. str_comment_intro_female_common_liege|It is not often that I meet a woman who aspires to lead men into battle. But these are dark and troubled times, and I for one will not turn away hands that can grip a sword, should their owner be brave and loyal. str_comment_intro_female_common_martial|I must say, my lady -- do be careful, riding about this dangerous land. If you ever wished to seek a more... em... settled life, I'm sure I could find you a worthy husband from among my men. str_comment_intro_female_common_badtempered|By the way, girl -- does your husband know that you nicked his weapons and armor? I'll bet you're in for a right old beating when you get home! str_comment_intro_female_common_pitiless|These are fallen times indeed, when even women turn brigand, to pick the leavings from the wreckage of war. str_comment_intro_female_common_cunning|It is not unheard-of for a woman to seek her fortune on the battlefields of Calradia, but neither is it usual. I shall be most interested in your progress. str_comment_intro_female_common_sadistic|A woman, caparisoned for war! Well, I suppose that you're no more womanly than most of those in my service who call themselves warriors. str_comment_intro_female_common_goodnatured|From the look of you, I suppose you can handle yourself, but do be careful out there, my lady. str_comment_intro_female_common_upstanding|It is not every day that we see a woman caparisoned for war. Please do not take this amiss, my lady, for you have every right to protect yourself, but I cannot pretend to be fully comfortable with your decision to fight in battle. I would prefer that women be untouched by these wars, as I believe the female to be the custodian of what little gentility and tenderness remains to us. str_rejoinder_intro_female_common_badtempered|I won my weapons in battle. Would you care to test their edge? str_rejoinder_intro_female_noble_sadistic|Never mind my country. Here in Calradia, it seems, dogs lead men to war. str_rejoinder_intro_female_common_sadistic|And you, sir, are no more bestial than my horse. str_rejoinder_intro_female_noble_pitiless|I would restore the natural order, so that you no longer speak from your arse. str_rejoinder_intro_female_common_pitiless|Indeed, these are fallen times, when brigands call themselves 'Lord'. str_rejoinder_intro_noble_sadistic|Maybe now I'll take your banner. And your cattle. And your life. str_rejoinder_intro_female_pitiless_admiring|I would be delighted to mar your handsome nose, sir. str_rejoinder_intro_female_common_upstanding|Would you like to feel the tenderness of my steel? str_rejoinder_intro_female_noble_upstanding|Would you like to feel the tenderness of my steel? str_rejoinder_intro_female_common_martial|I could find worthier husbands than those in a kennel. str_rejoinder_intro_female_sadistic_admiring|You could add a touch of humanity to a horse's harness, but just a touch. str_rejoinder_intro_female_badtempered_admiring|If you're disturbed by the sight of me, I'd be pleased to put out your eyes. str_comment_you_raided_my_village_enemy_benevolent|You have attacked innocent farmers under my protection in the village of {s51}.

I pray that this is not true, for such conduct does dishonour to us all. str_comment_you_ran_from_foe_allied_upstanding|They say that you fled from {s54}, leaving your men behind. I do not always believe such rumors, and I also know that desperate straits call for desperate measures. But I beg you to take more care of your good name, for men will not fight in our armies if they hear that we abandon them on the field of battle. str_comment_you_ran_from_foe_allied_spiteful|By the way, they said that you ran away from {s54} like a quaking little rabbit, leaving your men behind to be butchered.

But I will be a truer test of your skill at arms. str_comment_you_captured_a_lord_allied_friendly_spiteful|I heard that you captured {s54}. I hope that you squeezed him for every denar. str_comment_you_captured_a_lord_allied_unfriendly_spiteful|I heard that you captured {s54}. Your coffers must be well-bloated with ransom by now.

I assume, of course, that he has been been treated with the honours due his rank. str_comment_you_captured_a_lord_allied|I heard that you captured {s54}. Well done. His ransom must be worth quite something. str_comment_you_let_go_a_lord_allied_chivalrous|I heard that you captured {s54}, but then let him go. Such chivalry does a credit to our cause. str_comment_you_let_go_a_lord_allied_upstanding|I heard that you captured {s54}, but then let him go. Well, that was an honourable course of action, if possibly also a dangerous one. str_comment_you_let_go_a_lord_allied_coldblooded|I heard that you captured {s54}, but then let him go.

Bah. I should have expected as much from the likes of you. str_lord_mission_failed_pitiless|You failed? Well. You disappoint me. That is a most unwise thing to do. str_lord_mission_failed_cunning|Well, I am disappointed, but no one can guarantee that the winds of fortune will always blow their way. str_lord_mission_failed_sadistic|Indeed? Those who fail me do not always live to regret it. str_lord_mission_failed_goodnatured|Oh well. It was a long shot, anyway. Thank you for making an effort. str_lord_mission_failed_upstanding|Very well. I am sure that you gave it your best effort. str_lord_follow_refusal_default|Follow you? You forget your station, {sir/madame}. str_lord_follow_refusal_martial|Perhaps if you one day prove yourself a valorous and honourable warrior, then I would follow you. But not today. str_lord_follow_refusal_quarrelsome|Follow someone like you? I don't think so. str_lord_follow_refusal_pitiless|Lords like me do not follow people like you, {sir/madame}. str_lord_follow_refusal_cunning|First show me that you are the type of {man/woman} who will not lead me into disaster, and then perhaps I will follow you. str_lord_follow_refusal_sadistic|I think not! Rather, you should follow me, as a whipped cur follows {his/her} master. str_lord_follow_refusal_goodnatured|Um, I am a bit pressed with errands right now.

Although I gave an oath to {s46}, it does not bind me to support him if he usurped his throne illegally. str_rebellion_dilemma_quarrelsome|Hmm. {s46} has never given me my due, so I don't figure I owe him much. However, maybe {s45} will be no better, and {s46} has at least shown himself . str_rebellion_dilemma_pitiless|Hmm. {s45} says {reg3?she he} is the rightful heir to the throne. That is good -- it absolves me of my oath to {s46}. But still I must weight my decision carefully. str_rebellion_dilemma_cunning|Hmm. I gave an oath of homage to {s46}, yet the powerful are not bound by their oaths as our ordinary people. Our duty is to our own ability to rule, to impose order and prevent the war of all against all. str_rebellion_dilemma_sadistic|Hmm. In this vile world, a wise man must think of himself, for no one else will. So -- what's in it for me? str_rebellion_dilemma_goodnatured|I do not know what to say. I gave an oath to {s46} as the lawful ruler, but if he is not the lawful ruler, I don't know if I am still bound. str_rebellion_dilemma_upstanding|This is troublesome. It is a grave thing to declare my homage to {s46} to be null and void, and dissolve the bonds which keep our land from sinking into anarchy. Yet I am also pledged to support the legitimacy of the succession, and {s45} also has a valid claim to the throne. str_rebellion_dilemma_2_martial|On the other hand, {s46} has led us in war and peace, and I am loathe to renounce my allegiance. str_rebellion_dilemma_2_quarrelsome|So tell me, why should I turn my back on the bastard I know, in favor of {reg3?a woman the bastard} I don't know? str_rebellion_dilemma_2_pitiless|It is a most perilous position to be in, to be asked whom I would make {reg3?ruler king} of this land. Yet it is also a time of opportunity, for me to reap the rewards that have always been my due! str_rebellion_dilemma_2_cunning|{s46} has been challenged, and thus he will never be able to rule as strongly as one whose claim has never been questioned. Yet if {s45} takes the throne by force, {reg3?she he} will not be as strong as one who succeeded peacefully. str_rebellion_dilemma_2_sadistic|Perhaps if I join {s45} while {reg3?she he} is still weak {reg3?she he} will enrich me, but perhaps if I bring {s46} your head he will give me an even greater reward. str_rebellion_dilemma_2_goodnatured|{s46} has always treated me decently, yet it's true that he did wrong to {s45}. I hesitate to renounce my homage to {s46}, yet I also don't think it's right to support injustice. str_rebellion_dilemma_2_upstanding|I feel that I must do whatever is best for the realm, to avoid it being laid waste by civil war and ravaged by its enemies. str_political_philosophy_martial|My sword is at the disposal of my rightful liege, so long as he upholds his duty to me. str_political_philosophy_quarrelsome|Bah. They're all a bunch of bastards. I try to make sure that the ones who wrong me learn to regret it. str_political_philosophy_pitiless|Men will always try to cheat others of their rightful due. In this faithless world, each must remain vigilant of his own rights. str_political_philosophy_cunning|Well, it's a harsh world, and it is our lot to face harsh choices. Sometimes one must serve a tyrant to keep the peace, but sometimes a bit of rebellion keeps the kings honest. Circumstance is all. str_political_philosophy_sadistic|My philosophy is simple it is better to be the wolf than the lamb. str_political_philosophy_goodnatured|Well, you should keep faith with your promises, and not do injustice to others. Sometimes it's hard to balance those. Stick with people you trust, I think, and it's hard to go far wrong. str_political_philosophy_upstanding|Kingship and lordship have been instituted to keep the peace and prevent the war of all against all, yet that must not blind us to the possibility of injustice. str_political_philosophy_roguish|Hmm.. I guess I'm thinking that it's good to be a lord. str_political_philosophy_benefactor|A good ruler makes sure all are treated justly. Personally, I intend to use my authority to better the lot of those who live in my demesne. str_political_philosophy_custodian|A good ruler creates the proper conditions for people to prosper.

Pray do not give me cause to regret this decision. str_rebellion_agree_cunning|This is a most dangerous decision, but after careful consideration, I have decided that I will join you. Let's hope it is for the best. str_rebellion_agree_sadistic|I have decided. I will back your {reg3?woman man} {s45}. But you'd best make sure that {reg3?she he} rewards me well! str_rebellion_agree_goodnatured|All right. I think your {reg3?woman man} will be a good ruler. I'll join you. str_rebellion_agree_upstanding|So be it. My first duty is to this realm, and to save it from lawlessness I will back {s45} and renounce my homage to {s46}. May the Heavens forgive me if I do wrong. str_rebellion_refuse_martial|I am sorry. {s45} has a good claim, but it's not enough for me to turn my back on {s46}.

What do you take me for, a bloody idiot? str_talk_later_pitiless|Still your tongue! Whatever I have to say on this matter, I will not say it here and now, while we are in the midst of our army. str_talk_later_cunning|This is hardly the time or the place for such a discussion. Perhaps we can discuss it at a later time and a different place, but for now we're still foes. str_talk_later_sadistic|You should have your mouth sewn shut! Can you imagine what would happen if the other vassals see me talking to you of treason? str_talk_later_goodnatured|So you wish to discuss your rebellion with me? Try that again when we aren't surrounded by my liege's army, and I will hear what you have to say. str_talk_later_upstanding|Whatever my thoughts on the legitimacy of the succession, I am not about to discuss them here and now.

Although I am a woman, he loved me like a son and named me his heir -- not once, but several times, before the grandest nobles of the land so that none could doubt his intention. There is no law that bars a woman from ruling -- indeed, we Swadians tell tales of warrior queens who ruled us in our distant past. str_vaegir_rebellion_pretender_story_1|My father died when I was young, leaving me in the care of his brother, the regent Burelek. But rather than hold the throne until I came of age, this usurper used his newfound power to accuse my mother of adultery, and to claim that I was not my father's son. She was executed for treason, and I was declared a bastard. str_khergit_rebellion_pretender_story_1|Sanjar Khan and I are brothers, sons of the old Janakir Khan, although of different mothers. Although I was the younger brother, all those who knew the old Khan will testify that throughout my father's life, I was his favorite, entrusted with the responsibilities of government. Sanjar busied himself with hunts and feasts to win the affection of the more dissolate of my father's commanders. str_nord_rebellion_pretender_story_1|I am called the Far-Seeker because I have travelled great distances, even by the standards of the Nords, in search of knowledge. Before I came of age, my father sent me abroad on a tour of study at the courts and universities in the lands overseas.

The king must be chosen from one of the leading noble families of the land, by a council drawn by lot from the patricians of the cities of Jelkala, Veluca, and Yalen. The council meets on a field before Jelkala, and no man is allowed to appear in arms during their deliberations, on pain of death. str_sarranid_rebellion_pretender_story_1|I was born in a faraway land, to a humble family, and made a slave when I was but a girl -- but there is no shame in that, for the mothers of many of our kings were slaves. The old Sultan, Ayzar, spotted me in the markets and was struck by my beauty. I entered his household, and there he also learned to respect my intelligence. As he grew older, he allowed me to govern in his stead. First I managed the affairs of the palace, and later those of the realm. str_swadian_rebellion_pretender_story_2|Yet when my father died, his cousin Harlaus convinced the nobles that no Swadian king of sound mind could name a woman as his heir. Harlaus said that his designation of me was the act of a madman, and thus had no legal standing, and that he, as my father's closest male relative, should of take the throne. str_vaegir_rebellion_pretender_story_2|I was smuggled abroad by a faithful servant, but now I am of age and have returned to reclaim what is rightfully mine. Burelek died soon after his act of perfidy -- the judgment of heaven, no doubt. His son Yaroglek now calls himself king, but as his claim is tainted, he is no less a usurper than his father, and I will topple him from his throne. str_khergit_rebellion_pretender_story_2|According to Khergit custom, when a man dies his herds are split between all his sons, equally. So too it is with the khanate. When I heard of my father's death, I was away inspecting our borders, but I hurried home to Tulga, ready to give Sanjar his due and share the khanate with him. But when I arrived, I found that he rushed his supporters to the court, to have himself proclaimed as the sole khan. str_nord_rebellion_pretender_story_2|My father died however before I completed my course of study, and as I hurried home to claim his throne my ship was wrecked by a storm. One of my father's thanes, Ragnar, seized this opportunity and spread rumors that I had died abroad. He summoned a gathering of his supporters to have himself proclaimed king, and has taken the past few years to consolidate his power. str_rhodok_rebellion_pretender_story_2|During the last selection, there were but two candidates, myself, and Lord Graveth. While the council was deliberating, Graveth appeared, sword in hand, telling them that a Swadian raiding party was about to descend on the field of deliberation -- which was true, by the way -- and if he were not elected king, then he would leave them to their fate. str_sarranid_rebellion_pretender_story_2|When Sultan Ayzar died, it seemed to the emirs of the realm only natural that I should succeed him as ruler, thus avoiding any danger of civil war. They insisted, however, that I should marry one of his generals, the Emir Baybak. The emirs then lined up to give us the oath of allegiance together -- to Baybak as Commander of the Armies, and to me as Mother of the Realm. For the brief time that we ruled, our realm prospered. str_swadian_rebellion_pretender_story_3|I will admit that I did my cause no good by cursing Harlaus and all who listened to him as traitors, but I also believe that the magistrates who ruled in his favor were bought. No matter -- I will raise an army of loyal subjects, who would honour their old king's memory and will. And if anyone doubts that a woman can wield power, then I will prove them wrong by taking Harlaus' ill-gotten crown away from him. str_vaegir_rebellion_pretender_story_3|Until I have my rights restored in the sight of all the Vaegirs, I will bear the sobriquet, 'the Bastard', to remind me of what I must do. str_khergit_rebellion_pretender_story_3|My brother thinks that Khergits will only respect strength a leader who takes what he wants, when he wants it. But I think that he misreads the spirit of our people.--we admire a resolute leader, but even more we a just one, and we know that a man who does not respect his own brother's rights will not respect the rights of his followers. str_nord_rebellion_pretender_story_3|So I remain in exile -- except now I am not looking for sages to tutor me in the wisdom of faraway lands, but warriors, to come with me back to the land of the Nords and regain my throne. If Ragnar doubts my ability to rule, then let him say so face to face, as we stare at each other over the rims of our shields. For a warrior can be a scholar, and a scholar a warrior, and to my mind, only one who combines the two is fit to be king! str_rhodok_rebellion_pretender_story_3|Well, Graveth defeated the Swadians, and for that, as a Rhodok, I am grateful. When I am king, I will myself place the wreath of victory on his head. But after that I will have it separated from his shoulders, for by his actions he has shown himself a traitor to the Rhodok confederacy and its sacred custom. str_sarranid_rebellion_pretender_story_3|But alas, Baybak himself was soon killed in a skirmish with the Khergits. Had I known of his death in time, I would have been able to prepare myself against any possibility of betrayal. But alas, my husband's treacherous nephew Hakim came riding with his men, still covered with the dust of the battlefield, and drove me from the palace at swordpoint and proclaimed himself sultan. So be it -- I shall gather an army of my own, and return him the favor. str_swadian_rebellion_monarch_response_1|Isolla thinks she should be Queen of the Swadians? Well, King Esterich had a kind heart, and doted on his daughter, but a good-hearted king who doesn't use his head can be a curse to his people. Isolla may tell you stories of warrior queens of old, but you might also recall that all the old legends end in the same way -- with the Swadians crushed underfoot by the armies of the Calradic Emperor. str_vaegir_rebellion_monarch_response_1|Were Valdym to come to me in peace, I would laden him with titles and honours, and he would become the greatest of my vassals. But as he comes in war, I will drag him before me in chains and make him acknowledge me as rightful sovereign, then cut his tongue from his mouth so that he cannot recant. str_khergit_rebellion_monarch_response_1|My brother Dustum has perhaps told you of his insistence upon splitting the khanate, as though it were a herd of sheep. Let me tell you something. Ever since the Khergits established themselves on this land, the death of every khan has had the same result -- the land was divided, the khan's sons went to war, and the strongest took it all anyway. I simply had the foresight to stave off the civil war in advance. str_nord_rebellion_monarch_response_1|Lethwin 'Far-Seeker'? Lethwin Inkfingers, is more like it. Perhaps you have heard the expression, 'Unhappy is the land whose king is a child.' Unhappy too is the land whose king is a student. You want the Nords to be ruled by a beardless youth, whose hand bears no callouses left by a sword's grip, who has never stood in a shield wall? If Lethwin were king, his thanes would laugh at him to his face! str_rhodok_rebellion_monarch_response_1|No doubt Lord Kastor told you that I defiled the hallowed Rhodok custom by interfering with the patricians' election of a king. Well, let me tell you something. The patricians of the towns make longwinded speeches about our ancient liberties, but then choose as their king whichever noble last sat in their villa and sipped a fine wine and promised to overlook their unpaid taxes. str_sarranid_rebellion_monarch_response_1|Our scholars have long agreed that there is one overriding principle in politics. Men should accept the authority of the ruler, because tyranny is better than civil war. It was for that reason that I accepted the authority of both Baybak and Arwa, to whom I gave my oath as co-rulers. str_swadian_rebellion_monarch_response_2|Those who weep for the plight of a Swadian princess denied her father's throne should reflect instead on the fate of a Swadian herdswoman seized by a Vaegir raider and taken as chattel to the slave markets. Talk to me of queens and old stories when our warlike neighbors are vanquished, and our land is at peace. str_vaegir_rebellion_monarch_response_2|Whatever my father may or may not have done to secure the throne does not matter. I have inherited it, and that is final. If every old claim were to be brought up anew, if every man's inheritance could be called into question at any time, then it would be the end of the institution of kingship, and we would live in a state of constant civil war. str_khergit_rebellion_monarch_response_2|Dustum would make a fine assessor of flocks, or adjudicator of land disputes. But can you imagine such a man as khan? We would be run off of our land in no time by our neighbors, and return to our old days of starving and freezing on the steppe. str_nord_rebellion_monarch_response_2|Old Hakrim may have had fancy ideas about how to dispose of his kingdom, but it is not just royal blood that makes a King of the Nords. I am king by acclamation of the thanes, and by right of being the strongest. That counts for more than blood, and woe to any man in this land who says otherwise. str_rhodok_rebellion_monarch_response_2|The only liberty that concerns them is their liberty to grow fat. Meanwhile, my men sleep out on the steppe, and eat dry bread and salt fish, and scan the horizon for burning villages, and shed our blood to keep the caravan routes open. Here's an idea -- if I ever meet a merchant who limps from a Khergit arrow-wound or a Swadian sword-stroke, then I'll say, 'Here's a man whose counsel is worth taking.' str_sarranid_rebellion_monarch_response_2|You should know, however, that Arwa was not chosen as Baybak's partner because of her wisdom or love of justice. No, she was chosen because she was a witch, who could transform men like Ayzar and Baybak into stammering fools. No matter -- I was true to my oath, and respected her usurpation, until the very hour that it was invalidated by the death of her puppet. Now she must respect mine. str_courtship_comment_conventional_generic|is a very well-bred sort str_courtship_comment_adventurous_generic|seems decent enough str_courtship_comment_otherworldly_generic|is most polite and attentive str_courtship_comment_ambitious_generic|lacks drive -- but perhaps that may be remedied str_courtship_comment_moralist_generic|seems to be a man of good character str_feast_description|scant str_feast_description_2|meager str_feast_description_3|barely adequate str_feast_description_4|sufficient str_feast_description_5|bountiful str_feast_description_6|magnificent str_feast_lengthy_description_1|The food you provided was insufficient for your guests and their retinues, forcing them to purchase their sustenance from the surrounding countryside at grossly inflated prices. The consensus among those who attended was that you failed to do your duty as a host, diminishing both their trust in you and your overall reputation. str_feast_lengthy_description_2|The food and drink you provided eventually ran out, forcing some guests to either buy their own from passing peddlars, or send some of their retinue home early. The more charitable attributed the shortfall to poor planning rather than meanness, but either way, it did your reputation no good. str_feast_lengthy_description_3|The food and drink you provided was adequate for your noble guests, although some of the commoners in their retinues went without. You are establishing a reputation as one who has at least a grasp of your social obligations as a noble. str_feast_lengthy_description_4|You have provided enough food and drink, and with sufficient varieties, to do yourself credit. The food, drink, and merriment have loosened your guests tongues, allowing them to converse candidly about the matters of the realm, and deepening their trust in you. str_feast_lengthy_description_5|You have provided a bountiful table not just for your noble guests but for their retinues, with food left over to be distributed to the poor. Your guests lavish praise upon you for your generosity, and for your understanding of the social obligations of your rank. The conversation, fueled by the food and drink, has been merry, strengthening the bonds between those who attended. str_feast_lengthy_description_6|The realm will be speaking of the bounty of your table for months to come, and it will become the standard to which all other feasts will aspire.

Such sweet words!
