Dialogue

Human found in Squall Cusps

Siege weapons are the only way we're going to get an upper hand in this. The enemy can just keep replenishing their troops forever. Our resources are limited. We have to be smart.

That's an intelligent way of looking at things.

Thanks, but it's just common sense. If you're outnumbered, better weapons and better tactics can still save the day. We can't abandon Orr just because it won't be easy to win.

True. Good-bye.

Do you think we can win?

When you're doing something this important, you don't sit around and wonder if it'll work. You just throw everything you've got into it. If success isn't possible, you'll find out.

I think I follow you.

Agreed.

Human found at Ghostsummit

I've seen more action here than I expected. If I'd known, I might have actually requested this post. Being an entrepeneur, I make do wherever I land.

What sort of action do you see around here?

Harpies! I'd gladly smash harpy skulls all day and drink to their demise all night. You'd understand what I meant if you'd ever heard their shrieks.

I'll leave you to it then.

I'm going to find me some action. See you later.

Human found at Broken Bluffs, asura at Dry Step Mesas

Commander! It's good to see you!

What are you doing here, soldier?

We've formed a rally point for survivors and salvage, and we'll fly them out come morning.

Sounds good. Let me ask something else.

Understood, I will keep my eyes open for them.

How can I help?

Keep doing whatever you can to help out anyone in the area, and we'll set up more rally points.

Good plan. Let me ask another question.

Sounds good. I'll head out now.

And you as well. Stay strong, soldier.

Human found at Shrouded Ruins, asura at Stonetwist Paths

Commander! We're glad to see you survived. We've dug in here against the Mordrem.

What's the situation, soldier?

We've set up a rally point to gather troops nad supplies, but we're under regular Mordrem assault.

I see. Let me ask another question.

Understood. I'll leave you to it.

What help do you need?

We need to get troops and supplies to our position and defend it until we fly them out of here.

Good plan. Let me ask another question.

Very well, then. I'll leave you to it.

Excellent! Carry on.
