Dialogue[edit]
- Male Betrothed Noble in white and blue suit
- It's been so long. Always, always, I'm bound by my duty.
- I don't understand. What duty?
- I come from the farmlands. Joko demanded tribute from my family. My parents had nothing else to give, and so they offered me.
- That's horrible. Why whould they do that?
- Joko has no pity for mortals, and defiance means death. He would have wiped them out without a second thought.
- He's not here now. Can you leave?
- My sister and her family live free in Elona...but if I defy Joko's will, they'll die. It's always the same.
- I'm so sorry. This won't go on forever.
- Please don't lose hope.
- Please don't lose hope.
- Good-bye.
- Male Betrothed Noble in simple clothes
- I was chosen from my people as their brightest star. I love and serve in their name.
- Are you here by choice?
- Of course. Joko has blessed all of us with wealth, leisure, and everlasting life. Why wouldn't I adore him?
- How can you say that? He's a monster.
- You simply haven't opened your eyes to his great works. Go, explore Vabbi. See all the good he's done, and meet those he's saved. Then you'll understand.
- I don't think I ever will.
- I can't listen to this.
- Good-bye.
- Female Betrothed Noble in simple clothes
- I was sold to Joko for a handful of jewels. I hope the money brought them joy, because I'll see them burn.
- Them? Who did this to you?
- The men who damned me to this place. They'll suffer tenfold, even if I have to earn Joko's favor. Let him offer me one wish...just one heart's desire. What are a few deaths to him?
- Please don't lose hope.
- Good-bye.
- Female Betrothed Noble in white and blue suit
- That was quite the ruckus you caused. I hope it was worth it.
- Are all of you trapped here? Why?
- We're Joko's betrothed, brought together to serve him. Regardless of the circumstances, it's an honor and a gift.
- How can you think that? This place is miserable.
- Well, misery is a matter of perspective, isn't it? You, for example, have broken into my home and slaughtered my guards. Can you even see beyond your fists?
- Help me understand what I can do.
- Do? We're safe and prosperous because of Joko. What do you offer but pain, suffering, and death? Even speaking with you is courting destruction.
- You don't sound content. You sound terrified.
- I can't change your mind.
- I've heard enough. Good-bye.
- Good-bye.
