Gaze of the Saboteur (pt.1) - Talacca Cove Gessho: !? Gessho: I knew a Salaheem's Sentinel would be coming...
Gessho: I only hoped it would not be you, Player name.
It truly is unfortunate.Gessho: I have sincerely enjoyed our camaraderie during my mercenary career.
Gessho: You have my utmost respect and gratitude.
Gessho: However, fate decrees that we meet as enemies this day.
Gessho: No, nothing is certain anymore...
Gessho: Defend yourself!
Gaze of the Saboteur (pt.2) - Talacca Cove Gessho: I expected nothing less from you, Player name... Gessho: Yet I cannot...
I cannot fail...Gessho: Ugh...
I am defeated...Gessho: But to fall to a warrior such as you, Player name...
I enter Death's hall without shame.Gessho: I ask a final mercy of you, Player name.
Gessho: Will you strike the final blow that sends me to the afterlife?
- Strike the final blow?
- Gladly. <----- Chose this option!
- I have questions...
Gessho: You are honorable.
Gessho: May my soul return to the fields of my homeland.
Gessho: ...
Gessho: My tale has reached an end.
I await my fate.Gessho: ...
Gessho: Why do you not strike?
- Strike the final blow?
- Gladly.
- I have questions... <----- Chose this option!
Gessho: The defeated general speaks not of tactics.
Gessho: No further words shall escape my beak.
Gessho: ...
Gessho: Hehehe.
Your gentle spirit betrays you, mighty Player name. You are as much a scholar as a soldier...Gessho: Do the questions in your mind so clamor for answers?
Gessho: It seems I must first clear the haze that surrounds my actions.
Gessho: Hehehe...
The Gessho you thought you knew is, in truth...Gessho: ...a Far Eastern spy!
Gessho: ...
Gessho: Are you shaken by my true identity?
- Are you shaken?
- To the core! <----- Chose this option!
- Not particularly...
Gessho: As well you should be.
Gessho: We have always dealt in good faith--I apologize for the deception.
- Are you shaken?
- To the core!
- Not particularly... <----- Chose this option!
Gessho: I must admit to some embarrassment.
This guise was meant to be flawless.Gessho: It appears my espionage skills are not as developed as I had thought...
Gessho: It was one year and several months past...
Gessho: I received my orders directly from the Mikado, and departed the islands of the Far East.
Gessho: My prime concern was to ascertain the truth behind a report that the Empire was developing a strategy to break the stalemate on the frontline of the war, and to sabotage any such strategy found to exist.
Gessho: Thinking the enemy of my enemy to be my friend, I forged an alliance with the fearsome beastmen of this region.
Gessho: But as ill fortune would have it, they knew little of the Empire's plans beyond the Astral Candescence and the role of the automatons...
Gessho: The beastmen of Aht Urhgan were as ferociously powerful as I had anticipated, but their methods were brutal and unsophisticated.
There were few among them in which I could place my trust.Gessho: And their assaults on the innocent citizens of Al Zahbi were more than I could countenance...
Gessho: I had to look elsewhere for allies.
Gessho: And I had found one in the form of Admiral Luzaf, the leader of those abominations, and a being we have faced before in battle.
Gessho: But I misspeak. The corsairs are not the abominations here.
Gessho: After an honest and extensive conversation with the admiral, I found him to be a most attentive and honorable man.
Gessho: Admiral Luzaf grasped my hand and said thus:
Gessho: "Let yesterday's quarrels be forgotten as we stand together against the might of the Empire."
Gessho: Through his diminutive vassal, Master Flit, Admiral Luzaf also promised a sizeable contribution from the recovered Ephramadian treasure to ease the suffering of my battered, war-torn homeland.
Gessho: Now his generous offer of aid shall never reach those shores...
Gessho: I have failed in my promise to Master Flit...
The contents of the treasury shall fall into the hands of an Imperial agent.Gessho: Ah, I do not hold any anger towards you, Player name.
Gessho: You have but acted out of love for your nation, and to protect those you care about. Is this not true?
- Explain your circumstances?
- Lay it on the table.
- Keep it to yourself. <----- Chose this option!
Gessho: I have revealed all.
Gessho: And now there is something I wish to ask before my demise.
Gessho: How were you able to uncover this cunningly concealed treasure?
- Explain your circumstances?
- Lay it on the table. <----- Chose this option!
- Keep it to yourself.
Gessho: This is an unexpected turn of events.
Gessho: While I am given leave to take this bounty, you, Player name, are ordered to protect it.
Gessho: I do not believe Admiral Luzaf would play us false...
His passion and valor are no act.Gessho: That would leave the possibility that Master Flit acted under his own initiative.
Gessho: Why would he scheme to send you away from Luzaf's side, to presumably be slain by me...?
Gessho: I believe I have the answer!
Gessho: Luzaf's proposed journey to the Hazhalm Testing Grounds plays right into Master Flit's nasty little claws.
Gessho: With Lady Aphmau's guardian off on a fool's errand, there are none to prevent harm from coming to her Imperial person.
Gessho: Player name!
As one who also walks in shadow, I could imagine such manipulation from an underworld being like Flit.Gessho: Your little master's life is in danger.
Gessho: I swear to you by the heavens and the earth, I will not lay a talon on this treasure.
Gessho: You must make all haste to Lady Aphmau's side!
To Hazhalm!- Strike the final blow?
