  • Bestel Bestel's Epic: Marvelous! Ah yes, yes, it's all here. Ahem, Act One, Scene One:

    "Along the shoreline, the beach grass sways, A blazing sun sinks neath sparkling bays. O' strange be the night when the drowned dead rise, And a pale moon ascends upon cold skies. The Stranger still is lost to me, those silken pillows upon which I lay at sea..."

    Moody, atmospheric... not as funny as I remember, but I'm sure it gets better in Act Two. Regardless, you have my thanks. Please, take something for your efforts.

    And next time you're in town, do come and see the show. I'll leave your name at the door... if I can salvage a door from somewhere, that is.
  • Sister Cassia Innocence: The Innocence you slew was not the God I know. My God is selfless. Humble. Yes, he is prone to burning sinners, but who among us isn't?

    You just wait, Exile. Eternity will prove me right.

  • Faustus, the Fence Oriath: Awful business, what happened to Oriath. Terrible. Just terrible. I was lucky. Safely out at sea with my crew.

    I hope those responsible are held accountable, barring those with whom I have ongoing business, of course. I suspect they were merely in the wrong place at the wrong time. Can't blame someone for having rotten luck!
  • Helena Oriath: Many of the Blackguard are still alive and scattered across Wraeclast, but the organisation has had its back broken after what happened in Oriath. I wouldn't want to run into a random knot of them, especially as they start to get hungry and desperate, but I believe their concerted search for us has ended. That'll give us some breathing room to face new problems.
  • Isla, the Engineer Oriath: I heard about Oriath. I've no love for that city. I... wasn't treated very well there...
  • Jun, Veiled Master Oriath: I'd not believe you if I had not witnessed the boats lurching onto the shores of Wraeclast myself. So... The gods have returned, and Oriath has fallen. This complicates things, to say the least.

    Exile, I believe the Syndicate has been planning to form a new government. The Templar were cruel, but at least they were mortal. If the Syndicate's power continues to grow, they will be able to rule Wraeclast and beyond without fear of reprisal, and we mere mortals will have no choice but to serve, or fuel their cycle of death and rebirth.

  • Navali Kitava: We do not despise Kitava. He is a blind child, cursed with endless hunger, and he knows no better. Hinekora foresaw his fall, and we have already mourned his passing.

  • Nenet, the Scout Strange Voice: Sometimes, when you are near, I hear whispers. Even though I have the best ears among all these thieves, I cannot make out the words... but they sound like my constant companions - my depression, paranoia, and hatred - when I am at my worst. Be careful, Exile.
  • Whakano, the Barber Kitava: Troubling news coming out of Oriath. I know you weren't just involved, but smack-dab in the middle of things. I also know you aren't to blame. Not directly, anyway.

    Still, you might imagine that I feel some... animosity about the whole situation. Not least of all because the presence of Kitava is quite literally a doomsday scenario for my people.

    I trust you'll sort it out, 'cause if you don't, we're through. And I don't just mean no more business.
