Dialogue[edit]
- Welcome to the battlefront, Wayfinder. Let's get you caught up on the campaign.
Are we making progress?
- Captain Farrus: Slowly, but surely. We're outnumbered and they've got a lot of defenses, but our tactical knowledge is superior.
- Captain Farrus: The locals don't want to fight us, which means Eparch can only resist us where he can get his loyalists in.
- Captain Farrus: We're prodding at the defenses and spreading out their forces. A breakthrough is inevitable.
- How's morale around here?
- Captain Farrus: High, for now. Those who were already here already owe their lives to our Kryptis allies, so this battle means a lot to them.
- Captain Farrus: And you'll find the ward isn't so easily broken. We've faced difficult battles in hostile environments many times.
- Give it to me straight: Can we win?
- Captain Farrus: Yes, but not without help. We need to get the locals to join us, and we need as many loyalists as possible to turn.
- Captain Farrus: Peitha has some ideas for that, of course. And, in the end, we'll need Isgarren to pledge the ward's full support.
- Captain Farrus: For that to happen, we need to keep winning, to prove this isn't a hopeless endeavor. That's where you come in.
- Can we really get the Kryptis to turn on Eparch?
- Captain Farrus: Peitha believes we can, and I think she's right. They're miserable under Eparch, and we're offering them a better future.
- Captain Farrus: But it's not going to be easy. They've seen what happens to the disloyal. We'll have to prove we can keep them safe.
- What do you know about Zakiros's defenses?
- Captain Farrus: Well, Eparch clearly planned for this contingency, because it's built to withstand a lot of punishment.
- Captain Farrus: We know there are shield pylons on the outside with heavy turrets defending them.
- Captain Farrus: And if you can get past those, all three towers have an array of weapons as well, each covering the other's blind spots.
- Captain Farrus: There's likely more inside the structure as well that we don't know about. I won't lie; it's going to be very difficult.
- Any word on what Eparch is planning?
- Captain Farrus: None at all. Nothing comes out of the citadel these days, so we have no way of knowing what's going on in there.
- Captain Farrus: But if I were him, I'd be concentrating my forces, preparing choke points, and setting up traps.
- Captain Farrus: The defender has an advantage here that will make any assault riskier. We'll need to find creative ways to counter that.
- Have we secured the areas outside of Zakiros?
- Captain Farrus: Partially, but not completely. There are still frequent and costly engagements with loyalists across our territory.
- Captain Farrus: It's difficult to hold as much ground as we've taken with the forces we have, especially when the enemy can use rifts.
- Captain Farrus: We've held out so far, but time is a factor. We'll need to act soon to avoid a collapse of our defensive lines.
- Anything I can do to help?
- Captain Farrus: Step in and fight with our soldiers whenever you can. They look up to you, and morale is important right now.
- Captain Farrus: Keep helping the civilian Kryptis, also.
- Captain Farrus: This is essentially a short-term occupation, and if the locals want us here, that makes everything easier.
- Captain Farrus: But most importantly, stay safe out there. I'd hate to see what this situation would look like if we lost you.
I'm good for now.
