Johan, the King's Hand Text Audio /228
Name
I witnessed your battle against Hillock. I wasn't aware your people had such abilities. My name is Johan, and I am from the far east. My people, the Kalguurans, are attempting to build a settlement near here. We could use someone with your talents. You know the land, you know the dangers. Will you join us? I'll await your answer in Kingsmarch.
Introduction
I am glad you decided to join us. I hesitate to call you 'Exile,' for we are all exiles in this foreign land. As the King's Hand, I serve as Treasurer of Kingsmarch. Come to me for all financial and resource management matters.
Introduction
We have contracted Captain Faustus, of the {Fair Marylene}, for ties to the markets of Wraeclast. Speak to him next. I am certain we will all be working together very closely.
Speak to Faustus
Next, you should familiarise yourself with our recruitment processes. Introduce yourself to Raulf, hire a recruit, and then return to me to discuss placement.
Speak to Raulf
You've hired someone? Then let's place them in a role.
Allocate a Worker
We'll also need some initial funding for wages and administration. Deposit some gold in the Treasury, and we'll speak further.
Fund the Treasury
The last thing we need to discuss is {investment.} Necessary infrastructure will require substantial resources. For now, make our first investment in our Recruitment capabilities, just to learn the process.
Invest in Recruitment
These beginnings may seem inauspicious, but I believe great things lie ahead. As long as we cooperate, both with each other and with the Charter's laws, everything will go according to plan.
Quest Complete
Several of our people were already here in Wraeclast, undertaking expeditions of their own. When their outpost reached a certain size, the King, in his great wisdom, gifted them an official charter—and a name. I was sent to aid in the execution and management of that charter. I serve as the King's Hand.
Kingsmarch
You don't appear to employ the power of runes, like we Kalguurans do. I am very curious how you accomplished what you did. I see that you have upon your person one of those so-called 'virtue gems,' but Nessa allowed me to borrow one, and it did nothing as far as I could determine.
Abilities
You'll have to ask our smith, Dannig, about runes. I am a man of figures and calculation, not metallurgy. You might actually know more than I do, if you're familiar with your 'Ezomytes.' They use a system of runes that is... oddly similar to our own.
JohanOnRunes
I am from Kalguur, on the continent of Middengard. We have reached Wraeclast by ship. The journey was quite long, and quite dangerous. Eventually, we may be able to open trade with Kalguur, but for now, we're on our own.
Home
A reckoning is coming, have no doubt about that. The King has his eye on Wraeclast, and he lays far-reaching plans. Only time will tell...
The King
I make no secret that I am a man of two loyalties. I must serve the King's wishes, and I must also serve this Charter to the letter of the law. I am aware that Kingsmarch is a destination for many that would be considered... less than upstanding citizens. So long as I directly see no evidence of crime, sedition, or another rebellion, there is no conflict of interest. Kindly do not discuss your thoughts in my presence.
Loyalties
I choose not to waste resources on a gilded office. It is here, in the Tavern, where drink and loose talk best meet. My presence may, hopefully, keep any {dangerous talk} to the shadows... where it belongs.

It seems the recent Royal Order of Criminal Hanging was damaged by seawater on its long journey over the ocean. Unfortunately, the pages listing the individuals to be tried were, in my opinion, unreadable. I would be remiss in my duties if I were to hang the wrong man based on my own interpretation of salt-bled letters. As it takes many months to make the voyage—both there, for you to receive this reply, and back, for us to receive the proper text—the punishment in question will exceed the Charter statute of limitations. With regret, I am unable to enforce the Order as the situation currently stands.

My Deepest Apologies,

Johan, your Hand on Wraeclast
