Slaying my way through even more possessed knights and magi, I was making my way to the observatory.
It was only now that I noticed the possessed were talking -- not to me, but rather to themselves.
They talked about destroying everything.
They spoke some abracadabra magic in a forgotten tongue.
They were clearly afraid of something.
Miserable bastards. I put them all to rest.
And here I am, the observatory in sight.
Weakness. Nothing but weakness!
We are paladins!
Innos wants it!
Fragments of a heated argument:
Lord Hagen must be up there with
Lee.
Ah, the exclamation mark. I've been lookin' for you, my dear.
Yes, he did.
What are you up to?
The paladins will chase the Setarrifians out of their hideouts!
The Setarrifians?
(Haha got ya!)
Innos gives us the power to fight on both fronts.
Lee kicks in.
Damn, Hagen! With what men? Hardly any survived the attack of the demon, and the ones who did are scattered all over the town! We need to ally with the Setarrifians and then fight the demon together!
I agree. And Milten knows how we can defeat the demon.
I know Milten's plans. They are a sacrilege against Innos!
Why is that?
They are based on the holy artefacts of a foreign goddess.
(Foreign?
)
Maybe, but... perhaps they really help.
We paladins are going to fight the demon and the Setarrifians! It is Innos' will!
Annoyed, Hagen laves the room.
Lee. With Hagen, I'm one of the king's army commanders.
Listen, Lee: Milten asked me to bring him the key stones opening the way into the burial temple.
Yes, it is right there. Take it!
And the second stone is ours.
Yes, a while ago. He was going to go into the house of the Mages' Guild, where the surviving Setarrifians are hiding... and there get the two key stones from the Setarrifian side from Karella.
Do you think the Setarrifians have taken him prisoner?
(Damn, is it just me, or does Lee look like an aged Barack Obama in this game?)
Above all Karella wants to defeat the demon. ... Here, take this. If you show it to the Setarrifian gate guard close to the Mages' Guild...
Where do I find the gate guard?
(Close to the Mages' Guild, you stupid faggert.
)
Go through that door into the next tower, then go down out of the tower in a southern direction. There you'll find the gate and the guard.
(Yeah, more like "go down that linear corridor, there you'll find the gate".
)
She should be in the house of the Mages' Guild and know what happened to Lester.
Zyra is with the Setarrifians?
Yes, I do.
(You do?
)
Good, then she will trust you.
If you need any more equipment, don't hesitate to serve yourself from the chest in the tower next to this one.
Level 31 woohoo!
You were in the battle, weren't you?
It was night, but we still attacked the walls. The demon suddenly dashed over the wall like a glowing meteorite...
Most of my men were killed in the attack. I was lucky. I fell into the gap, but I managed to grab on to the edge.
And then? What happened then?
The demon was gone just as quickly as it had attacked us...
What happened in town, I don't know. I crawled out of the hole, gathered the survivors of my army...
We only entered the town when the volcano erupted.
Well, that ends this rather pointless update.
Next stop: Mages' Guild. Zyra is there -- so let's see just who our stylish hero's special lady is!
