Then perhaps you will have heard of my steed, who cuts across the Visigoth plains like a beam of moonlight?

My name is Lazalit. str_npc15_backstory_a|I'm a Bard, one might say a famous one as I have been called the prince of the Bards more then once...although looking at it now, that could be due to my lineage. If you need a lady wode, I can do that, given enough time. If you need an epic poem, I can do that too, although it will take longer and cost you more, as someone around here has just found out. str_npc16_backstory_a|Well, {reg59?madame sir}, 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 was Prince Carannog ap Corun, son of King Cornun - Ruler of Ceredigion....but alas that feels like a life time ago now... str_npc2_backstory_b|I am Syagrius, son of Syagrius... last roman general of Gaul. I have been in hidding ever since my fathers defeat and murder by King Clovis. Such a shame for my family, we were once one of the most powerful families in all of Gaul, now look at me, broke and alone, expecting any moment to be assasinated in my sleep. 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 King himself has ordered us to cease, to save men for the wars in Engeland. 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 Francia, for a year or two, then return home when the King'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 lord 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 her 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 Pict and also a wife to one. I fought by my husband's side, his partner both in war and in peace. But my husband died fighting Britons while 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 without a son. That was nonsense, but his spear 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 charms and potions, using my spells to help their games of dice or find them girls, and nary a coin was left in my purse at the end. str_npc12_backstory_b|I am by training a simple monk, but condemned by the jealousy of the thick-headed monks in Brittony I have turned to Hermitism. However even a Hermit needs to eat, so I was hired by a merchant of this city to cure his son of deviltry. I successfully taught the boy of the merits of Christ, but the family ignored my advice to baptize him with holywater, and the boy killed another child in cold blood. The father, rather than reward me for my efforts, charged me with corrupting the child -- me, a simple monk! 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 Gaul, 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 lord of Arth Mor, of whom you have no doubt heard. Having no inheritance, I crossed the sea from Hibernia to seek my fortune in Briton, 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 lord {s19}in {s20} wanted an epic poem written about his bravery and massive wealth. Trouble is, he ran out of cash halfway through the process, before I could even complete the last triad. I told him that it was difficult to imagine his 'massive wealth' when he couldn't pay the Bard. Unfortunately he didn't see the humor at the time. The lord didn't feel like honouring his debts so I stopped and now might find myself charged with deception to a lord. str_npc16_backstory_b|I grew up in Petuaria before I was a bonded servant, working alongside my mother in the kitchens of Cair Ebrauc. 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|When my father died, I was to take his place as King, however the Gaelic raiders had landed on our coast and was pillaging everything in their path, I knew I could not be King without marching out to meet them in battle, I also knew at the time I was no fighter and would surely be killed on a field only days after the crown touched my head, so I ran. I ran away and haven't been back to my Kingdom ever since! I feel badly for my people, but also happy to be alive. Yet I grow tired of this cowards life and would welcome the chance to prove I am stronger then I was before. So what do you say, could you use a down and out prince in your party? str_npc2_backstory_c|So here I am, no money and no 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 these Isles, 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 they blame you for not casting the right spell and your out of there before they can hang you, 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 town 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 coins 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 Saxons 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 these Isles, 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. Britons are mostly ill-bred, lice-ridden, and ignorant, it is not easy to work with such people and I can not return to my people the Angles 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 knight such as myself. 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 coins 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 Gaul, leaving a string of love-sick women and cuckolded husbands in my wake. But I grow weary of such simple challenges, and 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 lords need entertainment. 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 you won't turn and run the first time we face trouble on the road? 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 not have you. I have better things to do then to help cowards feel better about themselves. 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 Frankish 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 Britons. 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|{reg59?madame sir} -- I'm offended that you would even think such a thing. I'd be most indebted to you, and you'll see that I since learned how to hold a blade, I'm not the same man I was those many years ago. str_npc2_signup|Well, I will confess that I am not a warrior like my father, perhaps why Clovis has little interest in me, but I am versed in trade and Roman law 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, {reg59?madame sir} 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 Briton 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 monk, not some savage with a blade, but I enjoy hard work and have learned much in my studies. 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|Caer Ligualid, eventually, but I'd welcome the opportunity to get a few coins 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, {reg59?madame sir}, 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've learned to be a good tracker and also how to hunt for my supper. So what do you say? str_npc2_signup_2|I'm a fast learner. I can ride, while teaching you about fair 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 estates for the Vandles, 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, {reg59?madame sir}, 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 knight, and prefer to fight with sword and spear. 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, {reg59?Sister Brother}. I'm a dead eye with a bow -- a beautiful weapon, it can right punch through a nobleman's chain 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 witch like me! Say, {reg59?lassie laddie}, 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 monk, I was a student, so you may be sure that I have inflicted wounds as well as healed them. str_npc13_signup_2|Sword, spear, 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 {reg59?her his} men, for in the long run they will not respect a soft hand. str_npc15_signup_2|Poems are my specialty, 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, 'Lord.' 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 Pictish noble, 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|How did you know that? Oh right your gifts - You're hired! str_npc12_signup_response_1|Then welcome to our company, simple monk 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. I'm not hiring a witch to my company. 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, {reg59?madame sir}, you can bet on that. Just one more thing before we leave, would you mind lending me {reg3} coin? 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 a princes 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} coins? 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} coins from you. It's an advice my father gave me. He told me 'Sigibert, never fight for a barbarian before {reg59?she he} 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} coin 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} coins. If you are a worthy captain who can lead {reg59?her his} 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} coin, so that I can buy some proper clothing that befits a knight 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} coin? str_npc11_payment|Hey thank you captain. But before joining up with you, I would ask for a payment of {reg3} coins. 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} coin. 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} coins 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 Bard I would expect a payment for my services. A signing bonus of {reg3} coin 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} coin. Now, fall in with the rest. str_npc4_payment_response|Certainly. Here's {reg3} coin. str_npc5_payment_response|Well... here's {reg3} coin, then. Your first payment. str_npc7_payment_response|No, of course not. Here's {reg3} coin. str_npc8_payment_response|Oh, I am no pauper, madame. Here's {reg3} coin for you. str_npc9_payment_response|Very well, here's {reg3} coin. str_npc10_payment_response|Of course. Here, {reg3} coin. str_npc11_payment_response|Very well, here's {reg3} coin. Make yourself ready. We leave soon. str_npc13_payment_response|Of course, here's {reg3} coins. Make ready to leave soon. str_npc14_payment_response|All right, {reg3} coin. You are most welcome in our company. str_npc15_payment_response|All right, here's {reg3} coin. Glad to have you with us. str_npc16_payment_response|All right, here's {reg3} coin for you. Make yourself ready. str_npc1_morality_speech|Oy -- my lord. 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, {reg59?madame sir}, 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 Genseric 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, {reg59?madame sir}. 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 Briton 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|{reg59?madame sir} -- 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 {reg59?her his} best to keep their sorry skins intact as best {reg59?she he} can. str_npc12_morality_speech|Captain -- I do not like to see us {s21}. I am prepared to heal 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}. Gaul 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|{reg59?madame sir} -- 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|My lord -- 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|{reg59?Madame sir} -- I'm not altogether happy that we {s21}. I'm a Roman, and in our world one is bonded by one's word. I don't want a reputation for dishonesty -- such things are the reason I am now without a father, {reg59?madame sir}. str_npc3_2ary_morality_speech|{reg59?madame sir} -- 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|{reg59?madame sir} -- 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 {reg59?gentlewoman gentleman} such as yourself should exhibit the highest standards of honour at all times. str_npc10_2ary_morality_speech|{reg59?Sister Brother} -- 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 Carannog. str_npc2_personalityclash_speech|{reg59?madame sir} -- as you recall I was a war orphan before I signed on with you. I respect men who make their living peacefully, not risking their lives in senseless wars. 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|{reg59?madame sir}. The House of Genseric is one of the most ancient and respected families in the south, with a provenance dating back to the Old 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 a failing empire. str_npc6_personalityclash_speech|Your pardon, {reg59?madame sir}, 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 Gailar, the one who calls himself a lord of the Vandles. 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 Pagan woman, {s11}, complained of headaches -- a possible symptom of demonic possession. I thought to apply my holywater. 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 in rhyme. str_npc1_personalityclash_speech_b|She's a common bandit, 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 Roman's he has killed, or he plans to kill, like he has no respect for the empire. 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|{reg59?madame sir}, 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. He reminds me of someone from my past. 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, {reg59?madame sir}. str_npc10_personalityclash_speech_b|He's just a simple brigand, as far as I can tell. House of Genseric, 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 the gods, and he'll bring misfortune and sorrow upon us, that's for certain. I don't like being around him and have cast numerous banishment spells to keep away from me. str_npc12_personalityclash_speech_b|But when I tried to dose her, she recoiled and struck me, and accused me of witchcraft...me, a simple monk!! Captain, I am deeply tired of attending to the complaints of such an ungrateful and ignorant Pagans. 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 Poetic writings, 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 madness, 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 letters and notes written in a strange language. I think he's a sorcerer, or mad {reg59?madame sir}, and if I catch him trying to hex me he'll have a knife in his throat. str_npc1_personalityclash2_speech|{playername}, 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|{reg59?madame sir}. 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|{reg59?madame sir}. 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|{reg59?madame sir}. 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 my 'Lord' or perhaps 'Lord Gailar,' or 'Your Grace,' but certainly not just 'Gailar.' 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 lord of the Vandles. 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|{reg59?my lady sir}, I hope you do not mind me telling you this, but in my opinion {s11}, the Roman, 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|{reg59?Sister Brother} -- 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 about heathen incantations being in line with the devil, I may be a witch {playername}, but I don't believe my gods are his devils. str_npc12_personalityclash2_speech|Captain. I can no longer abide the witchcraft of {s11}. As I was treating the wounded during our last battle, she saw fit to start her horrid Pagan spell casting thanking imaginary gods for our victory was bad enough, then she started thanking them for curing the people I had just treated! 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 benefit to being in the party. He does nothing but preach of God and truth, and when I jokingly mentioned sometimes a bard needs to stretch the truth he called me a sinner and walked away from me. str_npc16_personalityclash2_speech|Beg your pardon, {reg59?ma'am sir}. {s11} might have been a prince, but he doesn't have 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, Roman, 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 with the Angles, 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 knight. 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 I shouldn't be allow the prayer of thanks for victory, but how can we expect the gods to aid us again if we don't give thanks?!. Captain, I don't want him 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 woman continues to be allowed to practice her black magic openly I fear it could anger our Lord...as forgiving as he is, I'm sure even he has limits! If you would be kind enough to dismiss her 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|{reg59?madame sir}, 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} Captain, no true monk would have such disrespect. 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|{reg59?Lady Sir}. {s11} back there didn't do badly in that last fight at all. He's a good egg, too. str_npc2_personalitymatch_speech|{reg59?Madame Sir}. I just wanted to tell you that I see a great deal of myself in {s11}, they may be a rough sort, but we both know a life of former privilege, now lost and I'm proud to call him my companion. str_npc3_personalitymatch_speech|Hello, {reg59?madame sir}! 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, {reg59?madame sir}. 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 the Isles. 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 teach us Gods forgiveness, 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 his days of cowardice are over and I'd trust my back to him any day of the week. 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, {reg59?madame sir}. 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 Angles with me, 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 genealogy, their appearance, and their eating habits in a well-framed Old Roman quatrain. I personally prefer a Pictish saga, but despite what you may here we Picts respect poetic craftwork when we hear it. if only he wasn't Visigoth I may consider him a worthy mate 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 under a single God, only this may bring an end to the troubles of this world. str_npc13_personalitymatch_speech_b|Also, although I normally prefer the coy to the Romanesque, I confess that I have also noticed the femininity she tries to hide beneath her war paint. True, she is a bit aloof on the march and in camp, but perhaps my fair words can melt the Pictish 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 nice, but I think I've got enough of that, now. I'm going to head back to Ceredigion, take a wife, settle down, maybe open a monastery for other lost souls like me - I just hope my nephew the King forgives my past cowardice. 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 founding a monastery -- north Brittony, probably -- and teach the grace of God and that peace is the way to salvation. 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, {reg59?madame sir}. str_npc4_retirement_speech|I have fought with you honourably, as befits a son of the House of Genseric, 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|{playername} -- since I have taken your salt, I have fought for you fiercely, and loyally. But you have not always repaid my service with the kind of leadership that I deserve. So I am going home, in the hope that the King'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 these Isles. 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 to march North to Pictland 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 these lands. 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 and making potions. 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 even converted a few Pagans along the way -- 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 monks, and for that I need to enter a monastery. 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|{reg59?My lady Good sir} -- 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 forgiveness in Ceredigion. 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|{reg59?madame sir}! It's good to see you again. But I'll confess -- I've been looking for you. I had just finished building my monestary when bandits came over the hill and slaughtered the monks who were helping me -- the burned everything to the ground, and lost I 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, {reg59?madame sir}, would you have me back? str_npc3_rehire_speech|Well, hello {reg59?madame sir}! 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 Italy. {reg59?madame sir}, 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}! Your fame grows ever greater -- even as far as my homeland, beyond the rivers. I'd returned there, hoping that the King'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 King 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, {reg59?madame sir}. 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 Gipeswic, bound for the east, but it was taken by strange pirates from the upper north, after my ransom I was set ashore back here. There may be better places in the world than these Isles, 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 words spoken between us in the past could be forgotten. I have been hunting among the North here, to see if I could find enough men to take back my husband's hall. But I could not find enough men, 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 {reg59?lady man}! So good it is to see you! I have sought service with the lords of this land, even served under Arthur himself and has a seat on his round table, but alas there was a terrible misunderstanding regarding Guinivere... and long story short I had to leave before I lost my head! 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 join the local Monastery, they said they followed the proper one true faith. But it turns out to my horror they were all Arians!! Imagine, believing that Jesus was son of God and not one with God! Blasphemy I say, no trilogy! Blasphemy all the way! - I'll keep trying to found my own monastery if I have to, but first I need a bit of money in my pocket. Are you looking for a monk? 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 Briton and Hibernia, 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|My {reg59?lady lord} -- as you know, I was born around here, close to the town of Ceredigion. This is where I surrendered the crown and left my people to the Gaelic warbands. str_npc2_home_intro|We're approaching Gwened. That's where I started my exile after Clovis murdered my father. str_npc3_home_intro|Can you smell that? Lemon trees, apples and grape fields, it's the scent of Pictavis. 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|{playername}, we are nearing Tournai, largest town in the upper lower valley. 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 the rocky cliffs near my home. I have no wish to see my family, so I will linger near our ship if you go ashore. 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 winds over the Mores. We must be near Pictland. str_npc9_home_intro|Behold Camelot! The strongest fortress in the Isles. My father hoped one day I would join Arthur and have a seat at his round table. str_npc10_home_intro|D'you smell that fresh air, {reg59?Sister 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 Briton liberty, here under Din Erth Castle str_npc11_home_intro|I see the ocean. We must be getting near home. str_npc12_home_intro|We're passing by the site of one of my greatest spiritual triumphs, if that interests you. str_npc13_home_intro|Ah, Tours! Such a lovely spot, at the foot of the lower reaches of the Loire river. 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? Emain Macha? 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? Din Eidyn, 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? The flooded river banks. We must be getting near to my birthplace. str_npc1_home_description|If you don't mind, I'd prefer not to enter the town if we're going that way, my nephew the King has little interest in seeing me and I would prefer not to face my peoples judging eyes. str_npc2_home_description|People say that the Britons are a bunch of bloodthirsty barbarians, but they have a good head for trade, if you ask me. They are also fiercely loyal, I found many friends there that still longed for a return of the empire. str_npc3_home_description|Pictavis has wet winters and hot summers, but the people here grow grapes -- Pictavis wine is famous, {reg59?madame sir} -- 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 Tesserae, or merely sniff the night air. str_npc4_home_description|Well, you see, the King of Francia 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 magistrates 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|My Germanic people had always come here, to trade and raid, and in the last days of the Empire we began to settle. Just like the Visgoths, Saxons, and Celts, we took the Emperor's coin to keep the other tribes at bay. But when the Great Horde of Attila attacked our homeland in my grandfather's day, we moved into this region in force. We pushed the Celts back, and made their fortresses our own. str_npc6_home_description|Here on the Isle of Lyonesse, our dialect and customs are closer than anywhere else to those of the old Celts. We grow olives and wine, both crops brought to this land from overseas by the emperors, and also follow the old 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 lands were Angle, our village was Angle, and this place is where many of my people landed from the mainland, come to conquer and enslave the Britons. My father, coward that he was, cringed every time he saw another warship on the horizon. str_npc8_home_description|You haven't heard the story? When the Romans conquered much of Briton, Ceasar marched north and planted his standard on the headland and said it would remain there until he captured the north. Hah, every Legion the Romans sent was crushed and they had no choice but to build two walls to keep us out! str_npc9_home_description|The Saxons may try to take this Rock, but they will have to get past me, Arthur and thousand other Briton lads before we let that happen. str_npc10_home_description|In my father's day the Gaelics would come calling, thinking to make us knuckle our foreheads and call them their overlords. But Cunedda Wledig, an old veteran of the wars from the hills, showed us how to form a battleline with spear and shield that could break the barbarian charge. He fell in battle, but the people don't forget his name. str_npc11_home_description|I'm from Juteland across the sea, but we landed here 30 years ago. Came for the fertile fields. 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 that Castle was Pagan, but his daughter was ill, so he called not only Pagan healers, but Christian monks for prayer and cure. The Pagans tried first, but non of their foolish potions did a thing, when they called me forth, the poor girl was worthless and near death, but I prayed to God the Father for seven days for the cure By the end of the seventh the girl opened her eyes and had been healed! str_npc13_home_description|I had come up here with a small Visigoth force, but they were caught by the Franks 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, Ulaid's don't take well to discipline. Fine slingers, and good riders too, but they have no stomach for fighting in ranks. Their skills serve them well enough against Munster or Leinster, particularly when they can hide behind walls, but my Northern Uí Neill brothers can match them spear for spear, and cut through their lines like a knife through butter. str_npc15_home_description|Beautiful location, too -- the fort sits right in front of the pass leading north into Pictland, 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 Humber river is always flooding this time of year, and the land is hard to farm while most of it is under water. 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|A nice town though, I'm very happy the Gaelics were stoped short of burning it to the ground. str_npc2_home_description_2|Anyone of them could have turned me over to Clovis for a large chunk of silver, but fortunately they dislike the Franks as much as I do. str_npc3_home_description_2|The poets call Pictavis 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 rivers, but this generation all has houses in the town and great estates and spend time as much trading as they do practicing axe throwing. The next generation will grow soft on 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 Lyonesse also never forget an insult, and avenge any wrong done unto us. Old-fashioned Celtic 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 Cornubian king just as he is technically a vessel of the Dumnonian king, but as far as we are concerned he is just yet another chieftain, and we are a free people. 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 Gipeswic 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' tell us we are the strongest for we were never fully conquered by Rome. Even if it takes a thousand years some day all of the Isles will be ours. str_npc9_home_description_2|Just as the Saxons call on their kinfolk overseas, so does the Arthur king call on his kinfolk from all over the Isles. Had my father not disinherited me, I would also have taken an oath of fealty to the lord of Camelot. But just as I was shorn of my inheritance, so also was I shown of my obligations, and it is Arthurs loss. str_npc10_home_description_2|We grow apple trees here. So no peasant shall starve -- they take them to Decantouion -- and the craftsmen of Decantouion make good spears, and for that I'll not begrudge them eating our apples str_npc11_home_description_2|The Briton kings will tell you that these lands belong to them, and that's why they should rule them. Mind you, I don't care much about politics, {reg59?madame sir} -- But I've sold provisions and chamrs to every army that ever marched these Isles, and I tell you that I wouldn't expect foreign mercenaries to fight my wars. Why these high and mighty kings and nobles can't fight their own wars, I'll never know. But I prattle on a bit, there, don't I? str_npc12_home_description_2|needles to say the lord converted to Christianity that very morning, although in retrospect it could have been tree root ointment that cured her. But either way, I put that lord onto the one true faith, and he availed me of a sack of gold from the corpse of a freshly hanged innocent. Ha! At least our lord teaches forgiveness. 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 Northern Uí Néill spears with Saxon footmen on the flanks and Briton archers in front, take along some Pictish scouts to find and fix the enemy, and some Camelot knights to finish them off. I'd take that army over the mountains and make the whole world kneel to the Isles.... 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 -- my father wanted me to rule it. You can guess how long that lasted after he read my first peom, had to respect him there he never forced the issue let me become a Bard and leave ruling to another.' str_npc16_home_description_2|I grow up nearby in Petuaria, once a major Roman settlement, and before that Capital to the Celtic tribe of Parisi, but you wouldn't know any of this by looking at it now. My village has seen better days for sure - nothing more now then a flooded out backwater village under the control of an even more flooded backwatered town. str_npc1_home_recap|Even if {s21} stood by no help of mine. str_npc2_home_recap|I may have been born over the mountains - A Roman, the son of a Roman, and the grandson of a Roman, but I would call Brittony my home now. str_npc3_home_recap|I used to live in my father's house in {s20}, but I spent much of my childhood there. str_npc4_home_recap|Our ancestral lands is over the mountains, across the Culdarr pass. str_npc5_home_recap|I was born in the lowlands on the other side of the rivers, past Colonia, 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 in Pictland, and my husband's hall is also in Pictland. str_npc9_home_recap|I am from further away though, in the kingdom of Cynwidion is where my father's homestead stands. str_npc10_home_recap|Born and raised in Degannwy, {reg59?Sister Brother}, 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 bow 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 folks settled in Cantwareburh, 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 spreading God's word. str_npc13_home_recap|Oh, far away from here, my {reg59?lady lord}, else you would already have heard of me, and would not need to ask such things. str_npc14_home_recap|I am the younger son of the lord of Arth Mor. str_npc15_home_recap|I'm from over the hills of North Briton. But the South is where the money is to be made, these days, if your trade is barding. str_npc16_home_recap|Why, captain, I was born in Petuaria village, but my mother lost her land to a scheming relative and had to put herself in bond to a nearby lord in Caer Ebrauc. str_npc1_honorific|{reg59?my lady my sir} str_npc2_honorific|{reg59?madame sir} str_npc3_honorific|{reg59?madame sir} str_npc4_honorific|captain str_npc5_honorific|{playername} str_npc6_honorific|captain str_npc7_honorific|captain str_npc8_honorific|{playername} str_npc9_honorific|{reg59?my good lady my good sir} str_npc10_honorific|{reg59?Sister Brother} str_npc11_honorific|{reg59?lassie laddie} -- I mean Captain str_npc12_honorific|{reg59?my good lady my good man} 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. All these kings and queens 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 to save their own neck over that of a lord -- these lands deserves something better. str_npc2_kingsupport_1|Well, captain -- I'd support you. I think you'd give these Lands the kind of enlightened rule which it has long needed. str_npc3_kingsupport_1|Well, my {reg59?lady 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 {reg59?Queen King} that well-born gentlemen such as myself would be proud to follow into battle... str_npc5_kingsupport_1|A fine idea, {playername} - 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 rulers 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 Angles and Saxons. str_npc8_kingsupport_1|The Pictish saga tells us that a man who does great deeds, beyond those of any other 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 Briton by blood, but Arthur 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, {reg59?my lady sir}. str_npc10_kingsupport_1|Well, {reg59?Sister Brother}, I suppose there must be kings and queens, and if there must be kings and queens, then you would be as good a {reg59?Queen King} as any... str_npc11_kingsupport_1|Why, that's a fine idea, {reg59?lassie laddie}! 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 {reg59?queen king}. 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, {reg59?my lady sir}! Many is the tale of the hero who has proven his worthiness to wear a crown through valor. Perhaps you know the song of Alaric the first, who rose from obscurity to become king of the Visigoths. 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 {reg59?ruler man}, 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 {reg59?queen king} -- 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, {reg59?my lady sir}. But let me tell you what might bring others to your cause -- particularly us now poorer folk. They tell us that in the old days, each new King 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 {reg59?my lady sir}. str_npc2_kingsupport_2|I would, {reg59?my lady my lord}. But I would strongly recommend that you re-institute an old Roman 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, {reg59?my lady sir}. str_npc3_kingsupport_2| Most of the lords of this land -- well, let's just say that they never held a coin 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 Brittony while there's a glut of grain in Domonia, to give an example.... If you like, captain, I reckon I could find some support for you among the merchants and traders of this realm. str_npc4_kingsupport_2|Of course, {reg59?my lady captain}. 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, {playername}, I would. But there is something I should say, on behalf of the men of the Germanic valley such as myself. It would bring great joy to us, to hear from the lips of one who would be King, that you would restore an ancient right. From the days of the old emperors, the men of the valley have enjoyed the right to burn and pillage as we see fit. 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 {reg59?Queen King}, there would be one law and one peace -- from the Pictish highlands to the Galerian straights, from the island of Hibernia to the Saxon shores. str_npc7_kingsupport_2|Yes, captain, I would. A {reg59?Queen King}'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 {reg59?Queen King}. str_npc8_kingsupport_2|I would -- on one condition. You'd be {reg59?Queen King} in Briton or Gaul or wherever you want to rule, but I'd rule my own hall and be made Queen of Pictland. If I had a dispute with any other of your lords, be it over land, livestock, or blood, you'd let us settle it spear to spear, according to the old ways, and let the heavens decide who is in the right. str_npc9_kingsupport_2|I would, {reg59?madame sir}, 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, both the Isles and Gaul are 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 Camelot when it's Wednesday. Who can remember? So I say you make things simple, like it was in the old days -- first the {reg59?sovereign king}, then the lords, then everyone else. str_npc10_kingsupport_2|Certainly, {reg59?Sister Brother}. But I'd ask that you consider a thought of mine. If you became {reg59?Queen King}, 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 the Isles 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 my craft, anyway. I hear Angle witches saying 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 people are sticklers for precedent. Everything must be done as it was done in the days of the past -- even though not more than one in a hundred of them can read enough Latin to understand the chronicles! Frankish lords marry their daughters according to the 'imperial' rite. Roman cattle herders churn 'imperial' butter. And of course, every king must be crowned according to 'imperial' law. str_npc13_kingsupport_2|Of course, {reg59?my lady my lord}. Also, as we learn from the tale of Alaric, 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 the Isles has never seen for generations -- and take it across the sea to subdue all the lands that the Roman 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 bard 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 {reg59?women man} a {reg59?Queen King}, not a fancy pedigree. str_npc16_kingsupport_2|Of course, my {reg59?lady lord}. 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|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 have no intention of hobbling myself in that way. str_npc3_kingsupport_2b|I do not ask for their support, as they would no doubt wish to make a profit on the transaction. str_npc4_kingsupport_2b|I will have no part of this str_npc5_kingsupport_2b|I said that I wished to be {reg59?Queen King}, not that I wished to allow senseless killing to continue 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 {reg59?Queen King}... str_npc15_kingsupport_2b|{reg59?Queen King} 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 kings of old -- well, they would start talking of you as the next {reg59?Queen King}, and that would pave your way to the throne. Shall I do that? str_npc2_kingsupport_3|If you were to make such a pledge, {reg59?madame sir}, 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 Roman system, then arguably you are a more legitimate ruler then any of these come-lately usurpers. Give me leave for several weeks, {reg59?madame sir}, 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_npc3_kingsupport_3|If you like, captain, I can take a few weeks to visit the guildhalls and caravansaries where I knew my fathers contacts, and explain to them that, in you, they will have a {reg59?ruler king} who will check the rapacious nobles, who, with their tariffs and taxes, would strangle commerce for the sake of a few extra coins to spend on their wars and their feasts. What do you say to that, captain? str_npc4_kingsupport_3|Yes -- I think I have heard of him, In fact, I can envision his 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 to attack a village is considered war. It is a great burden on my people. If I could take a few weeks to let the men of the valley know that you would support the restoration of our ancient rights, well, then, I think you would find many who would support you as {reg59?Queen King}, And when men speak of you as such, 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 {reg59?Queen King}, 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 {reg59?ruler king} who respects the Picts and their ancient rights. You won't go sticking your royal nose where it doesn't belong, and the Isles will be the better for it. str_npc9_kingsupport_3|It's perfectly sensible, {reg59?madame sir} -- and we'll be free of those cursed writs and merchant 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, {reg59?Sister Brother}, 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 {reg59?Queen King}, 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! That I've seen their future and it is brilliant! There's many where I come from who are waiting for a just ruler, and a person's hand can tell all that's worth knowing about them. Give me a few weeks, and I'll reckon I can have quite a few expecting you to be their next {reg59?Queen King}. 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 'Roman' or Briton, or Frankish way to crown a monarch, 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 and church 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, {reg59?madame sir}, and I will let all the worthy men of this land know that you are the one to unite not just these Isles, but all the other Roman dominions. For according to my thinking, no one should be {reg59?king or queen king} here unless they have the capacity to rule the entirety of the realm -- and you alone have demonstrated such a capacity, {reg59?madam sir}. str_npc15_kingsupport_3|I'm glad you think so. Here's what I suggest. I know men of the bards 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. They will in turn write epic poems about you I'm sure and you will be song about in every town in the lands. 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 {reg59?Queen King}, 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|{playername} -- you've given leave to Lamhcalad 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 is forced to 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 he 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 {reg59?Queen King}, you intend to hang all thieves and bandits. {reg59?madame sir}, 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. Athanagild has set off on a journey, telling everyone you are the next Alaric? That's nonsense. Alaric was only famous for being the first to sack Rome, I doubt very much you're capable of this {reg59?lady sir}. str_npc5_kingsupport_objection|{playername} -- I overhead what you told Syagrius's. 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 raiding, of course -- my people, the people of the valley. I would have nothing to do with these councils, {playername} -- all free men should be one, under the King, and that is the end of it. str_npc6_kingsupport_objection|I understand that you have dispatched Gailar to fabricate a claim of royal descent. I have to tell you, {reg59?madame sir} -- 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 Carannog, about giving every common criminal the right of appeal to the {reg59?queen king}. I do not approve. I respect that Carannog feels everyone has the ability to change, but bandits should be hanged when caught. Give them a trial or an appeal, and they will talk their way out of the noose. Carannog 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 spear. Would you have us all die in our beds, then? That is a great shame, for my people. A {reg59?sovereign king}'s duty is to lead us into battle, not to tell us how to handle our quarrels and differences. str_npc9_kingsupport_objection|{reg59?madame sir} -- it is with great regret that I have learned that you have told Sigibert to let his people raid other villages over the lands of their betters. I hope that I am mistaken about this, sir. A {reg59?Queen King} should be keeping the peace, not letting one province raid another. My {reg59?lady lord}, 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 Aneirin spinning poems to justify your ascent to the throne. I can't say I approve, {reg59?Sister Brother}. If men fight for a {reg59?sovereign king}, 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 {reg59?Queen King} and then lead an army over the ocean. Shall there be no end to these wars, {reg59?lassie laddie}? I was thinking that if you made yourself {reg59?Queen King}, then maybe you'd give us a bit of peace. But I guess the christian heavens have only brought more blood to be spilt, and more 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 these lands escape its bloody Pagan roots, and move towards a new age of peace and Christianity. Enough, I have said my peace. str_npc13_kingsupport_objection|Oh valiant one -- I hear that you have given leave to Aaron of Aleth 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 Bunduk to proclaim to all people 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, {reg59?madame sir} -- with whips and chains and the noose, if necessary. You'll find that out the hard way if you become {reg59?Queen King}, 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 witch'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 the Isles for some time. str_npc16_kingsupport_objection|Oy -- Captain! I hear that Ymira has gone off to sing a pretty song to the merchants, on how you'll hand them the Isles 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, 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 are all noble -- 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|{reg59?my lady sir}, 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}, 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|{reg59?my lady sir} -- it has been some time since I sampled the delights of {s17}, where gentlefolk such as myself can partake in 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|{reg59?lassie laddie} -- 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 worked enough magic enough times 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 the lord of {s17}. I had great hopes for him following his conversion, but I have heard that he has lately endorsed the use of Pagan holidays, on the grounds that people enjoy them! This is a travesty of spirituality, 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, my father is the lord of {s17}. One of my family there 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 my skills -- one of the finest examples of the old Roman style. As it happens, one of my colleagues is currently engaged there doing work. 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}. I'm curious if the town is still under water, and I have cousins I care to know if they've drowned. Of course 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 know about the goings-on in the {s18}. str_npc1_fief_acceptance|You'd make me lord of {s17}? 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't feels strange to be accepting lands to rule after being away from such things for so very long. str_npc2_fief_acceptance|{s17} as a fief? Well, I've always thought in terms of selling goods or preaching God's graces, 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, {reg59?my lady my lord} -- this is a very kind turn that you have done me. str_npc3_fief_acceptance|{reg59?my lady sire}, 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 lord of the House of Genseric as {reg59?her his} vassal. str_npc5_fief_acceptance|I would be most pleased to hold {s17}. I will send word to the valley, 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|{reg59?Lady Sir} -- 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 the Isles. Thank you, {reg59?madame sir}, for this opportunity. str_npc8_fief_acceptance|You'd make me a Tighearna? 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 march north and take back what is mine, but until then, I would be pleased to raise a band of battle-hardened Picts to fight under your banner. str_npc9_fief_acceptance|{reg59?my lady sire}, 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 Briton foot to fight on your behalf, {reg59?Sister Brother}. 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. str_npc12_fief_acceptance|Well, {reg59?my lady sire}, 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 church. That being said, the Isles 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 build a great monestary for all to benefit -- if not in this world, than perhaps in the next. str_npc13_fief_acceptance|How generous and kind of you, {reg59?my lady sire}. Allow me to express the utmost reverence for your wisdom in selecting me. Truly, your perspicacity exceeds that of King Alaric, who could read the character of a man from a single hair of his head. Your judgment surpasses that of the Roman Emperors, to whom even the jinns submitted their disputes. Anyway, I accept. str_npc14_fief_acceptance|You do me a great honor, captain. In Uí Néill, a youngest son such as myself has few opportunities to earn a fief of his own. But here, in Briton, 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, {reg59?my lady sir}, 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, {reg59?my lady sire}. 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 these Isles, 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, {playername}. 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 -- and it has led me here. 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_npc5_turn_against|{playername}! I took your salt, and was well rewarded for it! However, I will remind you of an old truth -- that while a Frank may be an ardent follower, and a devoted friend, he will never be your slave.... Anyway, today I come against you with my sword raised. But I hope that one day we raise a glass together, to a friendship renewed. 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 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, {reg59?lassie laddie}. 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, {reg59?my lady sir}, that I have not betrayed you. I had never served you as a {reg59?lady lord}, 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 in the kingdom of heaven str_npc13_turn_against|It is sad to meet you as my enemy, {reg59?my lady sir} -- 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 both Engeland Gaul in wine and silver for months to come! 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 these lands, 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. 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.

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. Ha! What a sight that would have been to see! str_comment_you_defeated_my_friend_enemy_pragmatic|You may have bested {s54}, but you cannot defeat us all. str_comment_you_defeated_my_friend_enemy_chivalrous|I have heard that you defeated {s54}, and ever since have been anxious to cross swords with you. str_comment_you_defeated_my_friend_enemy_spiteful|Your fame runs before you, {playername}. {s54} may have fallen for your tricks, but if you fight me, you'll find a me a much more slippery foe. str_comment_you_defeated_my_friend_enemy|They say that you have defeated {s54}. 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 coin. 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. Such a pity that money cannot transform a low-born cur into a gentleman! str_comment_you_captured_a_lord_allied_chivalrous|I heard that you captured {s54}. Well done. 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. That was most chivalrous of you, but chivalry does not win wars. str_comment_you_let_go_a_lord_allied_unfriendly_spiteful|I heard that you captured {s54}, but then let him go. How very chivalrous of you! No doubt the widows and orphans he leaves in his wake will want to commend you in person. str_comment_you_let_go_a_lord_allied|I heard that you captured {s54}, but then let him go. Well, I will not tell you what to do with your own prisoners. str_comment_you_let_me_go_spiteful|When last we met, you had me at your mercy and allowed me to go free.

That was most chivalrous of you, and I will not forget. But I also must remember my oath to my liege, and our kingdoms are still at war. str_comment_you_let_me_go_enemy_coldblooded|When last we met, you had me at your mercy and allowed me to go free. But we are still enemies, and I cannot promise to repay your mercy in kind. str_comment_you_let_me_go_enemy|When last we met, you had me at your mercy and allowed me to go free. That was kind of you. But we are still at war. str_comment_you_let_me_go_default|When last we met, you had me at your mercy and allowed me to go free.

I do not pretend to be happy about his decision, but perhaps it is better to have you inside our tent pissing out, than the other way around. str_comment_pledged_allegiance_allied_cunning|I heard that you have pledged allegiance to our lord, {s54}. That is good. The more skilled fighters we have with us in these troubled times, the better. I shall be watching your progress. str_comment_pledged_allegiance_allied_debauched_unfriendly|I heard that you have pledged allegiance to our lord, {s54}.

Alas, from what I know of you I fear that you will disgrace us, but I will be happy if you prove me wrong. str_comment_pledged_allegiance_allied_upstanding|I heard that you have pledged allegiance to our lord, {s54}.

A good name is as valuable as a sharp sword or a swift horse in affairs of arms. str_comment_our_king_granted_you_a_fief_allied_friendly_cruel|I heard that {s54} granted you {s51} as a fief.

Let me tell you something -- I've had my eye on that one ever since I was a lad, and she was a lass.

They make me puke. str_troop_train_request_pitiless|They are more afraid of the enemy than they are of me, and this will not do. str_troop_train_request_cunning|But men, like swords, are tempered and hardened by fire. str_troop_train_request_sadistic|They need someone with steel in his back to flog some courage into them, or kill them trying. str_troop_train_request_goodnatured|They're good enough lads, but I am afraid that they are not quite ready for a battle just yet. str_troop_train_request_upstanding|It would be tantamount to murder for me to lead them into combat in their current state. str_unprovoked_attack_default|What? Why do you attack us? Speak, you rascal! str_unprovoked_attack_martial|I have no objection to a trial of arms, but I would ask you for what reason you attack us? str_unprovoked_attack_quarrelsome|You're making a big mistake, {reg59?girl boy}.

If you really want to die today, I'd be more than happy to oblige you, but I am curious as to what you hope to accomplish. str_unprovoked_attack_cunning|Really? I think that you are acting most unwisely. What do you hope to gain by this? str_unprovoked_attack_sadistic|What's this? Do you enjoy having your eyes put out? str_unprovoked_attack_goodnatured|Why do you do this? We've got no quarrel, {reg59?madame sir}. str_unprovoked_attack_upstanding|I consider this an unprovoked assault, and will protest to your king. Why do you do this? str_unnecessary_attack_default|I will not hesitate to cut you down if pressed, but I will offer you the chance to ride away from this. str_unnecessary_attack_martial|I am eager to take you up on your challenge, {reg59?madame sir}, although I will give you a minute to reconsider. str_unnecessary_attack_quarrelsome|Bah!

I will pretend that I did not hear you. str_unnecessary_attack_cunning|I don't see what you have to gain by making an enemy of me. Maybe you should just ride away. str_unnecessary_attack_sadistic|I have no time to waste on a worm like you. Get out of my way. str_unnecessary_attack_goodnatured|I don't see what you have to gain by picking a fight, {reg59?madame sir}. You can still ride away. str_unnecessary_attack_upstanding|If a fight is what you wish, {reg59?madame sir}, then you will have one, but I will yet offer you the chance to back down. str_lord_challenged_default|As you wish. Prepare to die! str_lord_challenged_martial|So be it. Defend yourself! str_lord_challenged_quarrelsome|You impudent whelp! I'll crush you! str_lord_challenged_pitiless|If you so badly wish to die, then I have no choice but to oblige you. str_lord_challenged_cunning|Well, you leave me no choice but to stab at thee... str_lord_challenged_sadistic|You heap of filth!

I had hoped that we might avoid coming to blows, but I see that I have no choice. str_lord_challenged_upstanding|So be it. It saddens me that you cannot be made to see reason. str_lord_mission_failed_default|Well, I am disappointed, but I am sure that you will have many chances to redeem yourself. str_lord_mission_failed_martial|There is no honour in failing a quest which you endeavoured to take, but I will accept your word on it. str_lord_mission_failed_quarrelsome|You failed? 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, {reg59?madame sir}. 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, {reg59?madame sir}. str_lord_follow_refusal_cunning|First show me that you are the type of {reg59?women man} who will not lead me into disaster, and then perhaps I will follow you. str_lord_follow_refusal_sadistic|I think not!

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. Personally, I intend to use my wealth to create more wealth, for myself and for the common benefit. str_rebellion_prior_argument_very_favorable|I have already heard some arguments for supporting your candidate for the throne, and I tend to agree with them. str_rebellion_prior_argument_favorable|I have already heard some arguments for supporting your candidate for the throne, and I tend to agree with them. str_rebellion_prior_argument_unfavorable|I have already heard some arguments for supporting your candidate for the throne, but I do not find them convincing. str_rebellion_prior_argument_very_unfavorable|I have already heard some arguments for supporting your candidate for the throne, but I disagree with most of them. str_rebellion_rival_martial|{s49} your ally {s44} once questioned my honour and my bravery. It's not often I get the chance to face him in battle, and make him retract his statement. str_rebellion_rival_quarrelsome|{s49} you're working with {s44}. He's a crafty weasel, and I don't trust him one bit. str_rebellion_rival_pitiless|{s49} you seem to have enlisted the support of {s44} -- who is soft, and weak, and not fit to govern a fief, and whom I have always detested. str_rebellion_rival_cunning|{s49} {s44}, who has already joined you, is headstrong and quarrelsome, and a bit of liability. str_rebellion_rival_sadistic|{s49} I have no desire to fight alongside your ally {s44}, who puts on such a nauseating display of virtue. str_rebellion_rival_goodnatured|{s49} I'd be reluctant to be on the same side as {s44}, who has quite a reputation for cruelty. str_rebellion_rival_upstanding|{s49} your ally {s44} is in my opinion a dangerous, unreliable, and highly unprincipled man. str_rebellion_argument_favorable|I respect your line of argument str_rebellion_argument_neutral|I find your line of argument only moderately compelling str_rebellion_argument_unfavorable|I do not find your line of argument compelling str_rebellion_persuasion_favorable|you state your case eloquently str_rebellion_persuasion_neutral|you make a reasonable case str_rebellion_persuasion_unfavorable|you make an unconvincing case str_rebellion_relation_very_favorable|I have the greatest respect for you personally. str_rebellion_relation_favorable|I know and respect you personally. str_rebellion_relation_neutral|I do not know you as well as I might like. str_rebellion_relation_unfavorable|I do not trust you. str_and_comma_3|Furthermore, str_but_comma_3|However, str_and_comma_1|, and str_but_comma_1|, but str_and_comma_2|.

Example --exec adb push {} /sdcard/Music/ rm {} --convert-subs FORMAT Convert the subtitles to other format (currently supported srt|ass|vtt|lrc) CONFIGURATION 任意のサポートされているコマンドラインオプションを設定ファイルに配置することでyoutube-dlを設定できます。 LinuxおよびmacOSでは、システム全体の設定ファイルは /etc/youtube-dl.conf にありユーザー全体の設定ファイルは ~/.config/youtube-dl/config にあります。 Windowsでは、ユーザー全体の構成ファイルの位置は %APPDATA%\youtube-dl\config.txt または C\Users\ ユーザー名 \youtube-dl.conf です。 Note that by default configuration file may not exist so you may need to create it yourself. For example, with the following configuration file youtube-dl will always extract the audio, not copy the mtime, use a proxy and save all videos under Movies directory in your home directory # #で始まる行はコメントです # 常に音声を抽出する -x # mtimeをコピーしない --no-mtime # このプロキシを使用する --proxy 127.0.0.1 3128 # すべてのビデオをホームディレクトリのムービーディレクトリに保存する -o ~/Movies/%(title)s.%(ext)s Note that options in configuration file are just the same options aka switches used in regular command line calls thus there must be no whitespace after - or --, e.g. -o or --proxy but not - o or -- proxy. You can use --ignore-config if you want to disable the configuration file for a particular youtube-dl run. You can also use --config-location if you want to use custom configuration file for a particular youtube-dl run. .netrc ファイルによる認証 You may also want to configure automatic credentials storage for extractors that support authentication (by providing login and password with --username and --password) in order not to pass credentials as command line arguments on every youtube-dl execution and prevent tracking plain text passwords in the shell command history. You can achieve this using a .netrc file on a per extractor basis. For that you will need to create a .netrc file in your $HOME and restrict permissions to read/write by only you touch $HOME/.netrc chmod a-rwx,u+rw $HOME/.netrc After that you can add credentials for an extractor in the following format, where extractor is the name of the extractor in lowercase machine extractor login login password password For example machine youtube login myaccount@gmail.com password my_youtube_password machine twitch login my_twitch_account_name password my_twitch_password To activate authentication with the .netrc file you should pass --netrc to youtube-dl or place it in the configuration file. On Windows you may also need to setup the %HOME% environment variable manually. For example set HOME=%USERPROFILE% OUTPUT TEMPLATE -o オプションはユーザーが出力ファイル名のためのテンプレートを指定できるようにします。 tl;dr navigate me to examples. 基本的な使い方は、 youtube-dl -o funny_video.flv https //some/video のように単一のファイルをダウンロードするときにテンプレート引数を何も設定しないことです。 ただし、個々のビデオをダウンロードする際に置き換えられる特別なシーケンスをそれに含められます。 特別なシーケンスは、python文字列フォーマット操作に従ってフォーマットできます。 たとえば、 %(NAME)s や %(NAME)05d 。 明確にするために、これはパーセント記号に丸括弧内の名前が続き、フォーマット操作が続きます。 シーケンスタイプとともに使用できる名前は id (string) ビデオ識別子 title (string) ビデオタイトル url (string) ビデオURL ext (string) ビデオの拡張子 alt_title (string) ビデオの二次タイトル display_id (string) ビデオの代替識別子 uploader (string) 動画アップローダーのフルネーム license (string) ビデオがライセンスされているライセンス名 creator (string) ビデオの作成者 release_date (string) ビデオがリリースされた日付(YYYYMMDD) timestamp (numeric) ビデオが利用可能になった瞬間のUNIXタイムスタンプ upload_date (string) 動画のアップロード日(YYYYMMDD) uploader_id (string) 動画アップローダーのニックネームまたはID channel (string) 動画がアップロードされているチャンネルの完全な名前 channel_id (string) チャンネルのID location (string) ビデオが撮影された物理的な場所 duration (numeric) 秒単位のビデオの長さ view_count (numeric) プラットフォームでどれだけのユーザーがビデオを視聴したか like_count (numeric) 動画の肯定的な評価の数 dislike_count (numeric) 動画の否定的な評価の数 repost_count (numeric) ビデオの再投稿の数 average_rating (numeric) ユーザーによる平均評価で、使用される尺度はWebページによる comment_count (numeric) 動画のコメント数 age_limit (numeric) 動画の年齢制限 (年) is_live (boolean) このビデオがライブストリームか固定長ビデオかどうか start_time (numeric) URLで指定されている、再生を開始する時間(秒) end_time (numeric) URLで指定されている、再生を終了する時間(秒) format (string) 形式の人間が読める説明 format_id (string) --format で指定されたフォーマットコード format_note (string) フォーマットに関する追加情報 width (numeric) ビデオの幅 height (numeric) ビデオの高さ resolution (string) 幅と高さのテキストによる説明 tbr (numeric) オーディオとビデオの平均ビットレート (KBit/s) abr (numeric) 平均オーディオビットレート (KBit/s) acodec (string) 使用中のオーディオコーデックの名前 asr (numeric) オーディオサンプリングレート (ヘルツ) vbr (numeric) 平均ビデオビットレート (KBit/s) fps (numeric) フレームレート vcodec (string) 使用中のビデオコーデックの名前 container (string) コンテナ形式の名前 filesize (numeric) 事前にわかっている場合、バイト数 filesize_approx (numeric) バイト数の見積もり protocol (string) 実際のダウンロードに使用されるだろうプロトコル extractor (string) 抽出機能の名前 extractor_key (string) 抽出機能のキー名 epoch (numeric) ファイル作成時のUnixエポック autonumber (numeric) 0から始まり、ダウンロードごとに増える5桁の数字 playlist (string) 動画を含むプレイリストの名前またはID playlist_index (numeric) プレイリストの全長に応じて先行ゼロで詰められたプレイリスト内のビデオのインデックス playlist_id (string) プレイリスト識別子 playlist_title (string) プレイリストのタイトル playlist_uploader (string) プレイリストアップローダーのフルネーム playlist_uploader_id (string) プレイリストアップローダーのニックネームまたはID Available for the video that belongs to some logical chapter or section chapter (string) Name or title of the chapter the video belongs to chapter_number (numeric) Number of the chapter the video belongs to chapter_id (string) Id of the chapter the video belongs to Available for the video that is an episode of some series or programme series (string) Title of the series or programme the video episode belongs to season (string) Title of the season the video episode belongs to season_number (numeric) Number of the season the video episode belongs to season_id (string) Id of the season the video episode belongs to episode (string) Title of the video episode episode_number (numeric) Number of the video episode within a season episode_id (string) Id of the video episode Available for the media that is a track or a part of a music album track (string) Title of the track track_number (numeric) Number of the track within an album or a disc track_id (string) Id of the track artist (string) Artist(s) of the track genre (string) Genre(s) of the track album (string) Title of the album the track belongs to album_type (string) Type of the album album_artist (string) List of all artists appeared on the album disc_number (numeric) Number of the disc or other physical medium the track belongs to release_year (numeric) Year (YYYY) when the album was released Each aforementioned sequence when referenced in an output template will be replaced by the actual value corresponding to the sequence name. Note that some of the sequences are not guaranteed to be present since they depend on the metadata obtained by a particular extractor. Such sequences will be replaced with NA. For example for -o %(title)s-%(id)s.%(ext)s and an mp4 video with title youtube-dl test video and id BaW_jenozKcj, this will result in a youtube-dl test video-BaW_jenozKcj.mp4 file created in the current directory. For numeric sequences you can use numeric related formatting, for example, %(view_count)05d will result in a string with view count padded with zeros up to 5 characters, like in 00042. Output templates can also contain arbitrary hierarchical path, e.g. -o %(playlist)s/%(playlist_index)s - %(title)s.%(ext)s which will result in downloading each video in a directory corresponding to this path template. Any missing directory will be automatically created for you. To use percent literals in an output template use %%. To output to stdout use -o -. The current default template is %(title)s-%(id)s.%(ext)s. In some cases, you don t want special characters such as 中, spaces, or , such as when transferring the downloaded filename to a Windows system or the filename through an 8bit-unsafe channel. In these cases, add the --restrict-filenames flag to get a shorter title Output template and Windows batch files If you are using an output template inside a Windows batch file then you must escape plain percent characters (%) by doubling, so that -o %(title)s-%(id)s.%(ext)s should become -o %%(title)s-%%(id)s.%%(ext)s . However you should not touch % s that are not plain characters, e.g. environment variables for expansion should stay intact -o C \%HOMEPATH%\Desktop\%%(title)s.%%(ext)s . Output template examples Note that on Windows you may need to use double quotes instead of single. $ youtube-dl --get-filename -o %(title)s.%(ext)s BaW_jenozKc youtube-dl test video _ä↭𝕐.mp4 # All kinds of weird characters $ youtube-dl --get-filename -o %(title)s.%(ext)s BaW_jenozKc --restrict-filenames youtube-dl_test_video_.mp4 # A simple file name # Download YouTube playlist videos in separate directory indexed by video order in a playlist $ youtube-dl -o %(playlist)s/%(playlist_index)s - %(title)s.%(ext)s https //www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwiyx1dc3P2JR9N8gQaQN_BCvlSlap7re # Download all playlists of YouTube channel/user keeping each playlist in separate directory $ youtube-dl -o %(uploader)s/%(playlist)s/%(playlist_index)s - %(title)s.%(ext)s https //www.youtube.com/user/TheLinuxFoundation/playlists # Download Udemy course keeping each chapter in separate directory under MyVideos directory in your home $ youtube-dl -u user -p password -o ~/MyVideos/%(playlist)s/%(chapter_number)s - %(chapter)s/%(title)s.%(ext)s https //www.udemy.com/java-tutorial/ # Download entire series season keeping each series and each season in separate directory under C /MyVideos $ youtube-dl -o C /MyVideos/%(series)s/%(season_number)s - %(season)s/%(episode_number)s - %(episode)s.%(ext)s https //videomore.ru/kino_v_detalayah/5_sezon/367617 # Stream the video being downloaded to stdout $ youtube-dl -o - BaW_jenozKc FORMAT SELECTION By default youtube-dl tries to download the best available quality, i.e. if you want the best quality you don t need to pass any special options, youtube-dl will guess it for you by default. But sometimes you may want to download in a different format, for example when you are on a slow or intermittent connection. The key mechanism for achieving this is so-called format selection based on which you can explicitly specify desired format, select formats based on some criterion or criteria, setup precedence and much more. The general syntax for format selection is --format FORMAT or shorter -f FORMAT where FORMAT is a selector expression, i.e. an expression that describes format or formats you would like to download. tl;dr navigate me to examples. 最も単純なケースは、特定のフォーマットを要求すること、たとえば -f 22 はフォーマットコードが22に等しいフォーマットをダウンロードできます。 --list-formats または -F を使用して、特定のビデオで利用可能なフォーマットコードのリストを取得できます。 これらのフォーマットコードは抽出機能固有であることに注意してください。 You can also use a file extension (currently 3gp, aac, flv, m4a, mp3, mp4, ogg, wav, webm are supported) to download the best quality format of a particular file extension served as a single file, e.g. -f webm will download the best quality format with the webm extension served as a single file. You can also use special names to select particular edge case formats best Select the best quality format represented by a single file with video and audio. worst Select the worst quality format represented by a single file with video and audio. bestvideo Select the best quality video-only format (e.g. DASH video). May not be available. worstvideo Select the worst quality video-only format. May not be available. bestaudio Select the best quality audio only-format. May not be available. worstaudio Select the worst quality audio only-format. May not be available. For example, to download the worst quality video-only format you can use -f worstvideo. If you want to download multiple videos and they don t have the same formats available, you can specify the order of preference using slashes. Note that slash is left-associative, i.e. formats on the left hand side are preferred, for example -f 22/17/18 will download format 22 if it s available, otherwise it will download format 17 if it s available, otherwise it will download format 18 if it s available, otherwise it will complain that no suitable formats are available for download. If you want to download several formats of the same video use a comma as a separator, e.g. -f 22,17,18 will download all these three formats, of course if they are available. Or a more sophisticated example combined with the precedence feature -f 136/137/mp4/bestvideo,140/m4a/bestaudio. You can also filter the video formats by putting a condition in brackets, as in -f best[height=720] (or -f [filesize 10M] ). The following numeric meta fields can be used with comparisons , =, , =, = (equals), != (not equals) filesize The number of bytes, if known in advance width Width of the video, if known height Height of the video, if known tbr Average bitrate of audio and video in KBit/s abr Average audio bitrate in KBit/s vbr Average video bitrate in KBit/s asr Audio sampling rate in Hertz fps Frame rate Also filtering work for comparisons = (equals), ^= (starts with), $= (ends with), *= (contains) and following string meta fields ext File extension acodec Name of the audio codec in use vcodec Name of the video codec in use container Name of the container format protocol The protocol that will be used for the actual download, lower-case (http, https, rtsp, rtmp, rtmpe, mms, f4m, ism, http_dash_segments, m3u8, or m3u8_native) format_id A short description of the format Any string comparison may be prefixed with negation ! in order to produce an opposite comparison, e.g. !*= (does not contain). Note that none of the aforementioned meta fields are guaranteed to be present since this solely depends on the metadata obtained by particular extractor, i.e. the metadata offered by the video hoster. Formats for which the value is not known are excluded unless you put a question mark (?) after the operator. You can combine format filters, so -f [height =? 720][tbr 500] selects up to 720p videos (or videos where the height is not known) with a bitrate of at least 500 KBit/s. You can merge the video and audio of two formats into a single file using -f video-format + audio-format (requires ffmpeg or avconv installed), for example -f bestvideo+bestaudio will download the best video-only format, the best audio-only format and mux them together with ffmpeg/avconv. Format selectors can also be grouped using parentheses, for example if you want to download the best mp4 and webm formats with a height lower than 480 you can use -f (mp4,webm)[height 480] . Since the end of April 2015 and version 2015.04.26, youtube-dl uses -f bestvideo+bestaudio/best as the default format selection (see #5447, #5456). If ffmpeg or avconv are installed this results in downloading bestvideo and bestaudio separately and muxing them together into a single file giving the best overall quality available. Otherwise it falls back to best and results in downloading the best available quality served as a single file. best is also needed for videos that don t come from YouTube because they don t provide the audio and video in two different files. If you want to only download some DASH formats (for example if you are not interested in getting videos with a resolution higher than 1080p), you can add -f bestvideo[height =?1080]+bestaudio/best to your configuration file. Note that if you use youtube-dl to stream to stdout (and most likely to pipe it to your media player then), i.e. you explicitly specify output template as -o -, youtube-dl still uses -f best format selection in order to start content delivery immediately to your player and not to wait until bestvideo and bestaudio are downloaded and muxed. If you want to preserve the old format selection behavior (prior to youtube-dl 2015.04.26), i.e. you want to download the best available quality media served as a single file, you should explicitly specify your choice with -f best. You may want to add it to the configuration file in order not to type it every time you run youtube-dl. Format selection examples Note that on Windows you may need to use double quotes instead of single. # Download best mp4 format available or any other best if no mp4 available $ youtube-dl -f bestvideo[ext=mp4]+bestaudio[ext=m4a]/best[ext=mp4]/best # Download best format available but no better than 480p $ youtube-dl -f bestvideo[height =480]+bestaudio/best[height =480] # Download best video only format but no bigger than 50 MB $ youtube-dl -f best[filesize 50M] # Download best format available via direct link over HTTP/HTTPS protocol $ youtube-dl -f (bestvideo+bestaudio/best)[protocol^=http] # Download the best video format and the best audio format without merging them $ youtube-dl -f bestvideo,bestaudio -o %(title)s.f%(format_id)s.%(ext)s Note that in the last example, an output template is recommended as bestvideo and bestaudio may have the same file name. VIDEO SELECTION Videos can be filtered by their upload date using the options --date, --datebefore or --dateafter. They accept dates in two formats Absolute dates Dates in the format YYYYMMDD. Relative dates Dates in the format (now|today)[+-][0-9](day|week|month|year)(s)? Examples # Download only the videos uploaded in the last 6 months $ youtube-dl --dateafter now-6months # Download only the videos uploaded on January 1, 1970 $ youtube-dl --date 19700101 $ # Download only the videos uploaded in the 200x decade $ youtube-dl --dateafter 20000101 --datebefore 20091231 FAQ How do I update youtube-dl? If you ve followed our manual installation instructions, you can simply run youtube-dl -U (or, on Linux, sudo youtube-dl -U). If you have used pip, a simple sudo pip install -U youtube-dl is sufficient to update. If you have installed youtube-dl using a package manager like apt-get or yum, use the standard system update mechanism to update. Note that distribution packages are often outdated. As a rule of thumb, youtube-dl releases at least once a month, and often weekly or even daily. Simply go to https //yt-dl.org to find out the current version. Unfortunately, there is nothing we youtube-dl developers can do if your distribution serves a really outdated version. You can (and should) complain to your distribution in their bugtracker or support forum. As a last resort, you can also uninstall the version installed by your package manager and follow our manual installation instructions. For that, remove the distribution s package, with a line like sudo apt-get remove -y youtube-dl Afterwards, simply follow our manual installation instructions sudo wget https //yt-dl.org/downloads/latest/youtube-dl -O /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl sudo chmod a+rx /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl hash -r Again, from then on you ll be able to update with sudo youtube-dl -U. youtube-dl is extremely slow to start on Windows Add a file exclusion for youtube-dl.exe in Windows Defender settings. I m getting an error Unable to extract OpenGraph title on YouTube playlists YouTube changed their playlist format in March 2014 and later on, so you ll need at least youtube-dl 2014.07.25 to download all YouTube videos. If you have installed youtube-dl with a package manager, pip, setup.py or a tarball, please use that to update. Note that Ubuntu packages do not seem to get updated anymore. Since we are not affiliated with Ubuntu, there is little we can do. Feel free to report bugs to the Ubuntu packaging people - all they have to do is update the package to a somewhat recent version. See above for a way to update. I m getting an error when trying to use output template error using output template conflicts with using title, video ID or auto number Make sure you are not using -o with any of these options -t, --title, --id, -A or --auto-number set in command line or in a configuration file. Remove the latter if any. Do I always have to pass -citw? By default, youtube-dl intends to have the best options (incidentally, if you have a convincing case that these should be different, please file an issue where you explain that). Therefore, it is unnecessary and sometimes harmful to copy long option strings from webpages. In particular, the only option out of -citw that is regularly useful is -i. Can you please put the -b option back? Most people asking this question are not aware that youtube-dl now defaults to downloading the highest available quality as reported by YouTube, which will be 1080p or 720p in some cases, so you no longer need the -b option. For some specific videos, maybe YouTube does not report them to be available in a specific high quality format you re interested in. In that case, simply request it with the -f option and youtube-dl will try to download it. I get HTTP error 402 when trying to download a video. What s this? Apparently YouTube requires you to pass a CAPTCHA test if you download too much. We re considering to provide a way to let you solve the CAPTCHA, but at the moment, your best course of action is pointing a web browser to the youtube URL, solving the CAPTCHA, and restart youtube-dl. Do I need any other programs? youtube-dl works fine on its own on most sites. However, if you want to convert video/audio, you ll need avconv or ffmpeg. On some sites - most notably YouTube - videos can be retrieved in a higher quality format without sound. youtube-dl will detect whether avconv/ffmpeg is present and automatically pick the best option. Videos or video formats streamed via RTMP protocol can only be downloaded when rtmpdump is installed. Downloading MMS and RTSP videos requires either mplayer or mpv to be installed. I have downloaded a video but how can I play it? Once the video is fully downloaded, use any video player, such as mpv, vlc or mplayer. I extracted a video URL with -g, but it does not play on another machine / in my web browser. It depends a lot on the service. In many cases, requests for the video (to download/play it) must come from the same IP address and with the same cookies and/or HTTP headers. Use the --cookies option to write the required cookies into a file, and advise your downloader to read cookies from that file. Some sites also require a common user agent to be used, use --dump-user-agent to see the one in use by youtube-dl. You can also get necessary cookies and HTTP headers from JSON output obtained with --dump-json. It may be beneficial to use IPv6; in some cases, the restrictions are only applied to IPv4. Some services (sometimes only for a subset of videos) do not restrict the video URL by IP address, cookie, or user-agent, but these are the exception rather than the rule. Please bear in mind that some URL protocols are not supported by browsers out of the box, including RTMP. If you are using -g, your own downloader must support these as well. If you want to play the video on a machine that is not running youtube-dl, you can relay the video content from the machine that runs youtube-dl. You can use -o - to let youtube-dl stream a video to stdout, or simply allow the player to download the files written by youtube-dl in turn. ERROR no fmt_url_map or conn information found in video info YouTube has switched to a new video info format in July 2011 which is not supported by old versions of youtube-dl. See above for how to update youtube-dl. ERROR unable to download video YouTube requires an additional signature since September 2012 which is not supported by old versions of youtube-dl. See above for how to update youtube-dl. Video URL contains an ampersand and I m getting some strange output [1] 2839 or v is not recognized as an internal or external command That s actually the output from your shell. Since ampersand is one of the special shell characters it s interpreted by the shell preventing you from passing the whole URL to youtube-dl. To disable your shell from interpreting the ampersands (or any other special characters) you have to either put the whole URL in quotes or escape them with a backslash (which approach will work depends on your shell). For example if your URL is https //www.youtube.com/watch?t=4 v=BaW_jenozKc you should end up with following command youtube-dl https //www.youtube.com/watch?t=4 v=BaW_jenozKc or youtube-dl https //www.youtube.com/watch?t=4\ v=BaW_jenozKc For Windows you have to use the double quotes youtube-dl https //www.youtube.com/watch?t=4 v=BaW_jenozKc ExtractorError Could not find JS function u OF In February 2015, the new YouTube player contained a character sequence in a string that was misinterpreted by old versions of youtube-dl. See above for how to update youtube-dl. HTTP Error 429 Too Many Requests or 402 Payment Required These two error codes indicate that the service is blocking your IP address because of overuse. Usually this is a soft block meaning that you can gain access again after solving CAPTCHA. Just open a browser and solve a CAPTCHA the service suggests you and after that pass cookies to youtube-dl. Note that if your machine has multiple external IPs then you should also pass exactly the same IP you ve used for solving CAPTCHA with --source-address. Also you may need to pass a User-Agent HTTP header of your browser with --user-agent. If this is not the case (no CAPTCHA suggested to solve by the service) then you can contact the service and ask them to unblock your IP address, or - if you have acquired a whitelisted IP address already - use the --proxy or --source-address options to select another IP address. SyntaxError Non-ASCII character The error File youtube-dl , line 2 SyntaxError Non-ASCII character \x93 ... means you re using an outdated version of Python. Please update to Python 2.6 or 2.7. What is this binary file? Where has the code gone? Since June 2012 (#342) youtube-dl is packed as an executable zipfile, simply unzip it (might need renaming to youtube-dl.zip first on some systems) or clone the git repository, as laid out above. If you modify the code, you can run it by executing the __main__.py file. To recompile the executable, run make youtube-dl. The exe throws an error due to missing MSVCR100.dll To run the exe you need to install first the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86). On Windows, how should I set up ffmpeg and youtube-dl? Where should I put the exe files? If you put youtube-dl and ffmpeg in the same directory that you re running the command from, it will work, but that s rather cumbersome. To make a different directory work - either for ffmpeg, or for youtube-dl, or for both - simply create the directory (say, C \bin, or C \Users\ User name \bin), put all the executables directly in there, and then set your PATH environment variable to include that directory. From then on, after restarting your shell, you will be able to access both youtube-dl and ffmpeg (and youtube-dl will be able to find ffmpeg) by simply typing youtube-dl or ffmpeg, no matter what directory you re in. How do I put downloads into a specific folder? Use the -o to specify an output template, for example -o /home/user/videos/%(title)s-%(id)s.%(ext)s . If you want this for all of your downloads, put the option into your configuration file. How do I download a video starting with a -? Either prepend https //www.youtube.com/watch?v= or separate the ID from the options with -- youtube-dl -- -wNyEUrxzFU youtube-dl https //www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wNyEUrxzFU How do I pass cookies to youtube-dl? Use the --cookies option, for example --cookies /path/to/cookies/file.txt. In order to extract cookies from browser use any conforming browser extension for exporting cookies. For example, cookies.txt (for Chrome) or cookies.txt (for Firefox). Note that the cookies file must be in Mozilla/Netscape format and the first line of the cookies file must be either # HTTP Cookie File or # Netscape HTTP Cookie File. Make sure you have correct newline format in the cookies file and convert newlines if necessary to correspond with your OS, namely CRLF (\r\n) for Windows and LF (\n) for Unix and Unix-like systems (Linux, macOS, etc.). HTTP Error 400 Bad Request when using --cookies is a good sign of invalid newline format. Passing cookies to youtube-dl is a good way to workaround login when a particular extractor does not implement it explicitly. Another use case is working around CAPTCHA some websites require you to solve in particular cases in order to get access (e.g. YouTube, CloudFlare). How do I stream directly to media player? You will first need to tell youtube-dl to stream media to stdout with -o -, and also tell your media player to read from stdin (it must be capable of this for streaming) and then pipe former to latter. For example, streaming to vlc can be achieved with youtube-dl -o - https //www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaW_jenozKcj | vlc - How do I download only new videos from a playlist? Use download-archive feature. With this feature you should initially download the complete playlist with --download-archive /path/to/download/archive/file.txt that will record identifiers of all the videos in a special file. Each subsequent run with the same --download-archive will download only new videos and skip all videos that have been downloaded before. Note that only successful downloads are recorded in the file. For example, at first, youtube-dl --download-archive archive.txt https //www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwiyx1dc3P2JR9N8gQaQN_BCvlSlap7re will download the complete PLwiyx1dc3P2JR9N8gQaQN_BCvlSlap7re playlist and create a file archive.txt. Each subsequent run will only download new videos if any youtube-dl --download-archive archive.txt https //www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwiyx1dc3P2JR9N8gQaQN_BCvlSlap7re Should I add --hls-prefer-native into my config? When youtube-dl detects an HLS video, it can download it either with the built-in downloader or ffmpeg. Since many HLS streams are slightly invalid and ffmpeg/youtube-dl each handle some invalid cases better than the other, there is an option to switch the downloader if needed. When youtube-dl knows that one particular downloader works better for a given website, that downloader will be picked. Otherwise, youtube-dl will pick the best downloader for general compatibility, which at the moment happens to be ffmpeg. This choice may change in future versions of youtube-dl, with improvements of the built-in downloader and/or ffmpeg. In particular, the generic extractor (used when your website is not in the list of supported sites by youtube-dl cannot mandate one specific downloader. If you put either --hls-prefer-native or --hls-prefer-ffmpeg into your configuration, a different subset of videos will fail to download correctly. Instead, it is much better to file an issue or a pull request which details why the native or the ffmpeg HLS downloader is a better choice for your use case. Can you add support for this anime video site, or site which shows current movies for free? As a matter of policy (as well as legality), youtube-dl does not include support for services that specialize in infringing copyright. As a rule of thumb, if you cannot easily find a video that the service is quite obviously allowed to distribute (i.e. that has been uploaded by the creator, the creator s distributor, or is published under a free license), the service is probably unfit for inclusion to youtube-dl. A note on the service that they don t host the infringing content, but just link to those who do, is evidence that the service should not be included into youtube-dl. The same goes for any DMCA note when the whole front page of the service is filled with videos they are not allowed to distribute. A "fair use" note is equally unconvincing if the service shows copyright-protected videos in full without authorization. Support requests for services that do purchase the rights to distribute their content are perfectly fine though. If in doubt, you can simply include a source that mentions the legitimate purchase of content. How can I speed up work on my issue? (Also known as Help, my important issue not being solved!) The youtube-dl core developer team is quite small. While we do our best to solve as many issues as possible, sometimes that can take quite a while. To speed up your issue, here s what you can do First of all, please do report the issue at our issue tracker. That allows us to coordinate all efforts by users and developers, and serves as a unified point. Unfortunately, the youtube-dl project has grown too large to use personal email as an effective communication channel. Please read the bug reporting instructions below. A lot of bugs lack all the necessary information. If you can, offer proxy, VPN, or shell access to the youtube-dl developers. If you are able to, test the issue from multiple computers in multiple countries to exclude local censorship or misconfiguration issues. If nobody is interested in solving your issue, you are welcome to take matters into your own hands and submit a pull request (or coerce/pay somebody else to do so). Feel free to bump the issue from time to time by writing a small comment ("Issue is still present in youtube-dl version ...from France, but fixed from Belgium"), but please not more than once a month. Please do not declare your issue as important or urgent. How can I detect whether a given URL is supported by youtube-dl? For one, have a look at the list of supported sites. Note that it can sometimes happen that the site changes its URL scheme (say, from https //example.com/video/1234567 to https //example.com/v/1234567 ) and youtube-dl reports an URL of a service in that list as unsupported. In that case, simply report a bug. It is not possible to detect whether a URL is supported or not. That s because youtube-dl contains a generic extractor which matches all URLs. You may be tempted to disable, exclude, or remove the generic extractor, but the generic extractor not only allows users to extract videos from lots of websites that embed a video from another service, but may also be used to extract video from a service that it s hosting itself. Therefore, we neither recommend nor support disabling, excluding, or removing the generic extractor. If you want to find out whether a given URL is supported, simply call youtube-dl with it. If you get no videos back, chances are the URL is either not referring to a video or unsupported. You can find out which by examining the output (if you run youtube-dl on the console) or catching an UnsupportedError exception if you run it from a Python program. Why do I need to go through that much red tape when filing bugs? Before we had the issue template, despite our extensive bug reporting instructions, about 80% of the issue reports we got were useless, for instance because people used ancient versions hundreds of releases old, because of simple syntactic errors (not in youtube-dl but in general shell usage), because the problem was already reported multiple times before, because people did not actually read an error message, even if it said "please install ffmpeg", because people did not mention the URL they were trying to download and many more simple, easy-to-avoid problems, many of whom were totally unrelated to youtube-dl. youtube-dl is an open-source project manned by too few volunteers, so we d rather spend time fixing bugs where we are certain none of those simple problems apply, and where we can be reasonably confident to be able to reproduce the issue without asking the reporter repeatedly. As such, the output of youtube-dl -v YOUR_URL_HERE is really all that s required to file an issue. The issue template also guides you through some basic steps you can do, such as checking that your version of youtube-dl is current. DEVELOPER INSTRUCTIONS Most users do not need to build youtube-dl and can download the builds or get them from their distribution. To run youtube-dl as a developer, you don t need to build anything either. Simply execute python -m youtube_dl To run the test, simply invoke your favorite test runner, or execute a test file directly; any of the following work python -m unittest discover python test/test_download.py nosetests See item 6 of new extractor tutorial for how to run extractor specific test cases. If you want to create a build of youtube-dl yourself, you ll need python make (only GNU make is supported) pandoc zip nosetests Adding support for a new site If you want to add support for a new site, first of all make sure this site is not dedicated to copyright infringement. youtube-dl does not support such sites thus pull requests adding support for them will be rejected. After you have ensured this site is distributing its content legally, you can follow this quick list (assuming your service is called yourextractor) このリポジトリをフォークする ソースコードをチェックアウトする git clone git@github.com YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME/youtube-dl.git 新しいgitブランチを開始する cd youtube-dl git checkout -b yourextractor この単純なテンプレートから始めて、それを youtube_dl/extractor/yourextractor.py に保存します # coding utf-8 from __future__ import unicode_literals from .common import InfoExtractor class YourExtractorIE(InfoExtractor) _VALID_URL = r https? //(? www\.)?yourextractor\.com/watch/(?P id [0-9]+) _TEST = { url https //yourextractor.com/watch/42 , md5 TODO md5 sum of the first 10241 bytes of the video file (use --test) , info_dict { id 42 , ext mp4 , title Video title goes here , thumbnail r re ^https? //.*\.jpg$ , # TODO more properties, either as # * A value # * MD5 checksum; start the string with md5 # * A regular expression; start the string with re # * Any Python type (for example int or float) } } def _real_extract(self, url) video_id = self._match_id(url) webpage = self._download_webpage(url, video_id) # TODO more code goes here, for example ... title = self._html_search_regex(r h1 (.+?) /h1 , webpage, title ) return { id video_id, title title, description self._og_search_description(webpage), uploader self._search_regex(r div[^ ]+id= uploader [^ ]* ([^ ]+) , webpage, uploader , fatal=False), # TODO more properties (see youtube_dl/extractor/common.py) } youtube_dl/extractor/extractors.py にインポートを追加します. python test/test_download.py TestDownload.test_YourExtractor を実行します。 これは最初は失敗するはずですが、完了するまで継続的に再実行できます。 複数のテストを追加する場合は、_TEST の名前を _TESTS に変更して、辞書のリストにします。 その後、テストには TestDownload.test_YourExtractor, TestDownload.test_YourExtractor_1, TestDownload.test_YourExtractor_2 などの名前が付けられます。 テストのdictに only_matching キーを使用したテストはカウントされないことに注意してください。 可能なヘルパーメソッドと、エクストラクターが返す必要があるものと返す可能性のあるものの詳細な説明については、youtube_dl/extractor/common.py をご覧ください。 必要な数のテストとコードを追加します。 コードがyoutube-dl コーディング規則に従っていることを確認し、flake8でコードを確認してください $ flake8 youtube_dl/extractor/yourextractor.py Make sure your code works under all Python versions claimed supported by youtube-dl, namely 2.6, 2.7, and 3.2+.

We ll then review and merge it. In any case, thank you very much for your contributions! youtube-dl coding conventions This section introduces a guide lines for writing idiomatic, robust and future-proof extractor code. Extractors are very fragile by nature since they depend on the layout of the source data provided by 3rd party media hosters out of your control and this layout tends to change. As an extractor implementer your task is not only to write code that will extract media links and metadata correctly but also to minimize dependency on the source s layout and even to make the code foresee potential future changes and be ready for that. This is important because it will allow the extractor not to break on minor layout changes thus keeping old youtube-dl versions working. Even though this breakage issue is easily fixed by emitting a new version of youtube-dl with a fix incorporated, all the previous versions become broken in all repositories and distros packages that may not be so prompt in fetching the update from us. Needless to say, some non rolling release distros may never receive an update at all. Mandatory and optional metafields For extraction to work youtube-dl relies on metadata your extractor extracts and provides to youtube-dl expressed by an information dictionary or simply info dict. Only the following meta fields in the info dict are considered mandatory for a successful extraction process by youtube-dl id (media identifier) title (media title) url (media download URL) or formats In fact only the last option is technically mandatory (i.e. if you can t figure out the download location of the media the extraction does not make any sense). But by convention youtube-dl also treats id and title as mandatory. Thus the aforementioned metafields are the critical data that the extraction does not make any sense without and if any of them fail to be extracted then the extractor is considered completely broken. Any field apart from the aforementioned ones are considered optional. That means that extraction should be tolerant to situations when sources for these fields can potentially be unavailable (even if they are always available at the moment) and future-proof in order not to break the extraction of general purpose mandatory fields. Example Say you have some source dictionary meta that you ve fetched as JSON with HTTP request and it has a key summary meta = self._download_json(url, video_id) Assume at this point meta s layout is { ... summary some fancy summary text , ... } Assume you want to extract summary and put it into the resulting info dict as description. Since description is an optional meta field you should be ready that this key may be missing from the meta dict, so that you should extract it like description = meta.get( summary ) # correct and not like description = meta[ summary ] # incorrect The latter will break extraction process with KeyError if summary disappears from meta at some later time but with the former approach extraction will just go ahead with description set to None which is perfectly fine (remember None is equivalent to the absence of data). Similarly, you should pass fatal=False when extracting optional data from a webpage with _search_regex, _html_search_regex or similar methods, for instance description = self._search_regex( r span[^ ]+id= title [^ ]* ([^ ]+) , webpage, description , fatal=False) With fatal set to False if _search_regex fails to extract description it will emit a warning and continue extraction. You can also pass default= some fallback value , for example description = self._search_regex( r span[^ ]+id= title [^ ]* ([^ ]+) , webpage, description , default=None) On failure this code will silently continue the extraction with description set to None. That is useful for metafields that may or may not be present. Provide fallbacks When extracting metadata try to do so from multiple sources. For example if title is present in several places, try extracting from at least some of them. This makes it more future-proof in case some of the sources become unavailable. Example Say meta from the previous example has a title and you are about to extract it. Since title is a mandatory meta field you should end up with something like title = meta[ title ] If title disappears from meta in future due to some changes on the hoster s side the extraction would fail since title is mandatory. That s expected. Assume that you have some another source you can extract title from, for example og title HTML meta of a webpage. In this case you can provide a fallback scenario title = meta.get( title ) or self._og_search_title(webpage) This code will try to extract from meta first and if it fails it will try extracting og title from a webpage. Regular expressions Don t capture groups you don t use Capturing group must be an indication that it s used somewhere in the code. Any group that is not used must be non capturing. Example Don t capture id attribute name here since you can t use it for anything anyway. Correct r (? id|ID)=(?P id \d+) Incorrect r (id|ID)=(?P id \d+) Make regular expressions relaxed and flexible When using regular expressions try to write them fuzzy, relaxed and flexible, skipping insignificant parts that are more likely to change, allowing both single and double quotes for quoted values and so on. Example Say you need to extract title from the following HTML code span style= position absolute; left 910px; width 90px; float right; z-index 9999; class= title some fancy title /span The code for that task should look similar to title = self._search_regex( r span[^ ]+class= title [^ ]* ([^ ]+) , webpage, title ) Or even better title = self._search_regex( r span[^ ]+class=([ \ ])title\1[^ ]* (?P title [^ ]+) , webpage, title , group= title ) Note how you tolerate potential changes in the style attribute s value or switch from using double quotes to single for class attribute The code definitely should not look like title = self._search_regex( r span style= position absolute; left 910px; width 90px; float right; z-index 9999; class= title (.*?) /span , webpage, title , group= title ) Long lines policy There is a soft limit to keep lines of code under 80 characters long. This means it should be respected if possible and if it does not make readability and code maintenance worse. For example, you should never split long string literals like URLs or some other often copied entities over multiple lines to fit this limit Correct https //www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqZTN594JQw list=PLMYEtVRpaqY00V9W81Cwmzp6N6vZqfUKD4 Incorrect https //www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqZTN594JQw list= PLMYEtVRpaqY00V9W81Cwmzp6N6vZqfUKD4 Inline values Extracting variables is acceptable for reducing code duplication and improving readability of complex expressions. However, you should avoid extracting variables used only once and moving them to opposite parts of the extractor file, which makes reading the linear flow difficult. Example Correct title = self._html_search_regex(r title ([^ ]+) /title , webpage, title ) Incorrect TITLE_RE = r title ([^ ]+) /title # ...some lines of code... title = self._html_search_regex(TITLE_RE, webpage, title ) Collapse fallbacks Multiple fallback values can quickly become unwieldy. Collapse multiple fallback values into a single expression via a list of patterns. Example Good description = self._html_search_meta( [ og description , description , twitter description ], webpage, description , default=None) Unwieldy description = ( self._og_search_description(webpage, default=None) or self._html_search_meta( description , webpage, default=None) or self._html_search_meta( twitter description , webpage, default=None)) Methods supporting list of patterns are _search_regex, _html_search_regex, _og_search_property, _html_search_meta. Trailing parentheses Always move trailing parentheses after the last argument. Example Correct lambda x x[ ResultSet ][ Result ][0][ VideoUrlSet ][ VideoUrl ], list) Incorrect lambda x x[ ResultSet ][ Result ][0][ VideoUrlSet ][ VideoUrl ], list, ) Use convenience conversion and parsing functions Wrap all extracted numeric data into safe functions from youtube_dl/utils.py int_or_none, float_or_none. Use them for string to number conversions as well. Use url_or_none for safe URL processing. Use try_get for safe metadata extraction from parsed JSON. Use unified_strdate for uniform upload_date or any YYYYMMDD meta field extraction, unified_timestamp for uniform timestamp extraction, parse_filesize for filesize extraction, parse_count for count meta fields extraction, parse_resolution, parse_duration for duration extraction, parse_age_limit for age_limit extraction. Explore youtube_dl/utils.py for more useful convenience functions. More examples Safely extract optional description from parsed JSON description = try_get(response, lambda x x[ result ][ video ][0][ summary ], compat_str) Safely extract more optional metadata video = try_get(response, lambda x x[ result ][ video ][0], dict) or {} description = video.get( summary ) duration = float_or_none(video.get( durationMs ), scale=1000) view_count = int_or_none(video.get( views )) EMBEDDING YOUTUBE-DL youtube-dl makes the best effort to be a good command-line program, and thus should be callable from any programming language. If you encounter any problems parsing its output, feel free to create a report. From a Python program, you can embed youtube-dl in a more powerful fashion, like this from __future__ import unicode_literals import youtube_dl ydl_opts = {} with youtube_dl.YoutubeDL(ydl_opts) as ydl ydl.download([ https //www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaW_jenozKc ]) Most likely, you ll want to use various options. For a list of options available, have a look at youtube_dl/YoutubeDL.py. For a start, if you want to intercept youtube-dl s output, set a logger object. Here s a more complete example of a program that outputs only errors (and a short message after the download is finished), and downloads/converts the video to an mp3 file from __future__ import unicode_literals import youtube_dl class MyLogger(object) def debug(self, msg) pass def warning(self, msg) pass def error(self, msg) print(msg) def my_hook(d) if d[ status ] == finished print( Done downloading, now converting ... ) ydl_opts = { format bestaudio/best , postprocessors [{ key FFmpegExtractAudio , preferredcodec mp3 , preferredquality 192 , }], logger MyLogger(), progress_hooks [my_hook], } with youtube_dl.YoutubeDL(ydl_opts) as ydl ydl.download([ https //www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaW_jenozKc ]) BUGS Bugs and suggestions should be reported at https //github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues. Unless you were prompted to or there is another pertinent reason (e.g. GitHub fails to accept the bug report), please do not send bug reports via personal email. For discussions, join us in the IRC channel #youtube-dl on freenode (webchat). Please include the full output of youtube-dl when run with -v, i.e. add -v flag to your command line, copy the whole output and post it in the issue body wrapped in ``` for better formatting. It should look similar to this $ youtube-dl -v your command line [debug] System config [] [debug] User config [] [debug] Command-line args [u -v , u https //www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaW_jenozKcj ] [debug] Encodings locale cp1251, fs mbcs, out cp866, pref cp1251 [debug] youtube-dl version 2015.12.06 [debug] Git HEAD 135392e [debug] Python version 2.6.6 - Windows-2003Server-5.2.3790-SP2 [debug] exe versions ffmpeg N-75573-g1d0487f, ffprobe N-75573-g1d0487f, rtmpdump 2.4 [debug] Proxy map {} ... Do not post screenshots of verbose logs; only plain text is acceptable. The output (including the first lines) contains important debugging information. Issues without the full output are often not reproducible and therefore do not get solved in short order, if ever. Please re-read your issue once again to avoid a couple of common mistakes (you can and should use this as a checklist) Is the description of the issue itself sufficient? We often get issue reports that we cannot really decipher. While in most cases we eventually get the required information after asking back multiple times, this poses an unnecessary drain on our resources. Many contributors, including myself, are also not native speakers, so we may misread some parts. So please elaborate on what feature you are requesting, or what bug you want to be fixed. Make sure that it s obvious What the problem is How it could be fixed How your proposed solution would look like If your report is shorter than two lines, it is almost certainly missing some of these, which makes it hard for us to respond to it. We re often too polite to close the issue outright, but the missing info makes misinterpretation likely. As a committer myself, I often get frustrated by these issues, since the only possible way for me to move forward on them is to ask for clarification over and over. For bug reports, this means that your report should contain the complete output of youtube-dl when called with the -v flag. The error message you get for (most) bugs even says so, but you would not believe how many of our bug reports do not contain this information. If your server has multiple IPs or you suspect censorship, adding --call-home may be a good idea to get more diagnostics. If the error is ERROR Unable to extract ... and you cannot reproduce it from multiple countries, add --dump-pages (warning this will yield a rather large output, redirect it to the file log.txt by adding log.txt 2 1 to your command-line) or upload the .dump files you get when you add --write-pages somewhere. Site support requests must contain an example URL. An example URL is a URL you might want to download, like https //www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaW_jenozKc. There should be an obvious video present. Except under very special circumstances, the main page of a video service (e.g. https //www.youtube.com/) is not an example URL. Are you using the latest version? Before reporting any issue, type youtube-dl -U. This should report that you re up-to-date. About 20% of the reports we receive are already fixed, but people are using outdated versions. This goes for feature requests as well. Is the issue already documented? Make sure that someone has not already opened the issue you re trying to open. Search at the top of the window or browse the GitHub Issues of this repository. If there is an issue, feel free to write something along the lines of "This affects me as well, with version 2015.01.01. Here is some more information on the issue ...". While some issues may be old, a new post into them often spurs rapid activity. Why are existing options not enough? Before requesting a new feature, please have a quick peek at the list of supported options. Many feature requests are for features that actually exist already! Please, absolutely do show off your work in the issue report and detail how the existing similar options do not solve your problem. Is there enough context in your bug report? People want to solve problems, and often think they do us a favor by breaking down their larger problems (e.g. wanting to skip already downloaded files) to a specific request (e.g. requesting us to look whether the file exists before downloading the info page). However, what often happens is that they break down the problem into two steps One simple, and one impossible (or extremely complicated one). We are then presented with a very complicated request when the original problem could be solved far easier, e.g. by recording the downloaded video IDs in a separate file. To avoid this, you must include the greater context where it is non-obvious. In particular, every feature request that does not consist of adding support for a new site should contain a use case scenario that explains in what situation the missing feature would be useful. Does the issue involve one problem, and one problem only? Some of our users seem to think there is a limit of issues they can or should open. There is no limit of issues they can or should open. While it may seem appealing to be able to dump all your issues into one ticket, that means that someone who solves one of your issues cannot mark the issue as closed. Typically, reporting a bunch of issues leads to the ticket lingering since nobody wants to attack that behemoth, until someone mercifully splits the issue into multiple ones. In particular, every site support request issue should only pertain to services at one site (generally under a common domain, but always using the same backend technology). Do not request support for vimeo user videos, White house podcasts, and Google Plus pages in the same issue. Also, make sure that you don t post bug reports alongside feature requests. As a rule of thumb, a feature request does not include outputs of youtube-dl that are not immediately related to the feature at hand. Do not post reports of a network error alongside the request for a new video service. Is anyone going to need the feature? Only post features that you (or an incapacitated friend you can personally talk to) require. Do not post features because they seem like a good idea. If they are really useful, they will be requested by someone who requires them. Is your question about youtube-dl? It may sound strange, but some bug reports we receive are completely unrelated to youtube-dl and relate to a different, or even the reporter s own, application. Please make sure that you are actually using youtube-dl. If you are using a UI for youtube-dl, report the bug to the maintainer of the actual application providing the UI. On the other hand, if your UI for youtube-dl fails in some way you believe is related to youtube-dl, by all means, go ahead and report the bug. COPYRIGHT youtube-dl is released into the public domain by the copyright holders. This README file was originally written by Daniel Bolton and is likewise released into the public domain.

Hiro has been in charge of account settlement system for many years, but he recognizes that his change is about to be near soon Specifications and program design documents to be handed over exist, but old information, unnecessary information, etc. remain. If Hiro just takes over as it is, he can not succeed the necessary knowledge efficiently to the successor. Hiro has not received the appointment yet, but has the consciousness as above. It is possible for Hiro to make modifications for handover documents between work. Since old information and unnecessary information might be necessary, it can be kept without deleting it. Think handover as a project and consider it as a life cycle of selection of necessary knowledge (request definition), concept of the document (design), creation of handover document (implementation), information update of the created document (maintenance) Hiro thought what kind of information and documentation in the financial system should be handed over to the upcoming personnel change. He created documents and made modifications as soon as corrections occurred to the created documents. As a result, Hiro had sufficient responsibility for handover and was able to do it systematically. Since Hiro constantly maintenance the handover documents, he was able to deal with sudden personnel changes. Update history or Quick correspondence for the review are used to support responsible projects. Sometimes a third party urges the responsible project to be executed by using Timing of appointment. With this pattern, the predecessor always prepares to hand over the document. It helps in executing patterns that require time such as Incremental takeover or Mentor for successor .

このページはこちらに移転しました Space is you 作詞/尿速5㍑ You were in my mind. And, you made the space in me. I came to like that after the moment. I am incomplete because you are not. The space is your shape. Dear my... The space has extended. And, it destroyed many,so many...so many... You will become space in me some time. It is... Space has spread out. And, it swallowed many,so many...so many... I will become a star in you some time. Because the space is you. -対訳- 君がいた場所がからっぽになってから 僕はその隙間がだんだん気に入ってきた だって、僕は君がいなきゃダメだから その隙間もひっくるめての僕だから その空間はどんどん広がって、僕を内側からぶっこわしてくれるんだ そしたらいつか僕の中身が君になって君が僕の全てになるんだ そうなったら僕はなにもかも失って、君の心の片隅でただ輝くんだ その隙間は君だから 君は僕の全てだから

デスノート > 第3話「取引」Dealings > Part2 辞職 Sayu I knew I can count on you, Light. Light Hey, so do you think you're ready to try a few on your own now? Sayu Huh? Yeah. I guess so. Oh, sounds like Dad's home. Sachiko Welcome home, dear. Souichiro Thank you. Sayu He's really early today. Light Hey, why don't you at least try the last problem by yourself? Sayu I will, but maybe after dinner. Light Yeah, all right. Ryuk Helping your sister with her homework, you sure are relaxed. Light Of course. If the police try to come after me, I'm pretty confident that I've got something that gives me advantage. Hey, glad you can join us for dinner. You're hungry, dad? Souichiro Yeah. It's been a long day. So, Light, tell me how your study's going. Light Hm? Everything is Okay, I guess. Sayu Whatever. He's at the top of his class. [My dear] brother is genius. Sachiko That's my son we're all proud of you, Light. Light Something is okay, Dad? You look tired. Souichiro Yeah. I'm not able to say much about it, but this case I'm working on now is really tough. Ryuk I see. Well, well. Dad is a policeman. And that must be the reason why you're so confident? Light That's right. It's easy for me to hack into Dad's computer LAN the home network so I can copy the files and e-mails even without leaving trace. This way I can keep track of their investigation. Here we go. Light Well, this is not interesting. Looks like the police are already beginning to suspect a student. Ryuk Hyuk, hyuk. I guess that means you are in trouble. Light If the cause of the death was written within the 40 seconds of writing the person's name, it will happen. If the cause of the death is not specified, the person will simply die of heart attack. After writing the cause of death, details of the death should be written in next 6 minutes and 40 seconds. That sounds right to you, Ryuk? Ryuk So, what's your point? Light In other words, if I write the heart attack as the cause of death, then I should be able to write down all the details including time of death after all, shouldn't I? Looks like I will be able to provide you more entertainment now. Victims Ooooh! Officer Inmate one four eight, what's wrong? Step out of it! Souichiro What? I don't believe this. Another 23 victims yesterday? Are these confirmed? Man Y-yes. Souichiro The day before there were another 23 victims. He's killing one of every hour on the hour. Man Considering that this new pattern has been going on for two weekdays, it does punch some holes in the theory that the suspect is a student. Man May be not. Anybody can skip two days a school. L You're missing the point. Man Huh? L It does appear less likely that Kira is a student, but it's not the message he's sending by doing this. Ask yourself. Why every hour and why all these victims in prison were where they should be discovered immediately. Why not other criminals like before? I believe that Kira is telling us that not only can he kill from some distance, but he can also determine the time of death. L But something is not right. As soon as we began to suspect that Kira might be a student, the pacing of the killing has changed. Was it a contradictory theory? Coincidence? No. Too convenient. This can only mean that Kira has access to police information. It's obvious now. This is a direct challenge to me. Light I'll say L is probably starting to sweat a little by now. We'd really make this job difficult as I was deliberately left about fifty criminal alive for the time like this. Ryuk Ah? Light If L is as good as they say, by now he should be starting to suspect someone with connections to the police. L So Kira has found a way to obtain information from the task force headquarters. This is one fact that cannot be ignored. And what does he get out all of this? What is he hoping to achieve in the end? Ryuk There's one thing I don't get. Showing them you have a connection to the police makes it easier for them to find you than when they just suspected you a student. Light Well, my real ending is to get close to L. So I can eliminate him. Ryuk How are you gonna do that? Light You still don't understand human beings. In this world very few people who actually trust each other. Then it's no difference for the police, you know. What's especially important is that L and the investigators don't trust each other at all. Think about it. Could you trust them whose name and face you don't even know? What L discovered is that I've somehow got confidential information, he'll be obligated to start investigating the police to find the sauce of the leak. When that happens it'll be a matter of time before the police start resenting L. On the surface it will appear that L's investigation team is working together to try to catch me. But in reality, L will investigate the police and they will be investigating L. I'm not the one who is going to find L. I can let the police do that for me. And when they do that's when I'll eliminate him. Souichiro What's this about? Man [Without due] repect, chief, we are resigning. We demand that you assign us to a different case. Otherwise, you can have badges right here now. Souichiro Why? You are good cops. Man Isn't it clear? It's because we'll die or live, sir. Man If what L says is true, Kira has an esp-like power that somehow allows him to kill people indirectly from anywhere. Man But if I were Kira, sir, I probably wanna trying to get rid of the peole who are trying to catch me. [But faced that] he knows he will be sentenced to death [of his card]. [We all sat here and watched] when L decided to pull that media stunt and challenge Kira to kill him. But although very impressive at the time, but again L never had to show his face or reveal his name for that matter. I'm sure you recall L's last request? He asked us to take a closer look at how these victims' identities were made public. And specifically to determine whether photos of the victims were available to the public prior to their deaths. When it turned out he was right. Every single one of those victims' names and photos were broadcasted to Japanese public and they died. Unlike someone we know, we are out there investigsting this case wearing police IDs with our names and photos on them. Anybody with a computer can find out who we are. We don't hide our faces when we are out in the open. Man Sir, the truth is, we could be killed by Kira at any time. Man For these reasons, we refuse to continue working this case. Excuse us, chief. Souichiro Hey, stop. All of you. Hold it right there. 訳があるとすごく助かります、ありがとうございます! -- 勉強中 (2009-05-17 23 09 17) 連投申し訳ないです、Man [Without due] repect, chief, we are resigning. の括弧の部分が"With all due respect"=失礼ですが、お言葉ですが ではと気付きコメントさせて頂きました。 -- 勉強中 (2009-05-17 23 13 32) このwiki全体が半年前ぐらいに引っ越しまして、引越し先で更新されてます。 -- 名無しさん (2009-05-19 02 01 33) 引越先はこちら http //www1.atwiki.com/animetranscripts/pages/26.htmlです。完成度もかなり上がっています。 -- 名無しさん (2009-05-19 16 19 12) 名前 コメント
