Dialogue
Accepting the Quest
Alphinaud: So, to review: we are to travel to Radiata, where we will meet with a contact recruited by Marshal Tarupin's agents. Alphinaud: I took the liberty of reviewing intelligence reports while [Forename] and Lyse were away, so the settlement is not wholly unfamiliar to me... Alphinaud: As the vice marshal indicated, the vast majority of the populace is employed as menial labor in either Specula Imperatoris or Castrum Abania. Perhaps as a result of this, the Resistance has long struggled to make inroads there.
M'naago: Aye, you have the right of it. They got a better deal than most Ala Mhigans—feeding off what scraps the imperials gave 'em. Damned if I know how Marshal Tarupin's agents got one of them to turn his coat.
Alphinaud: I understand your disdain, I do. But I also understand their desire to look after their families by any means necessary... Alphinaud: Our contact is a Roegadyn woman. She will ask us a question. After we answer with "courage," she will know us as friends.
Lyse: "Courage." Right. Put together a squadron, Naago. We'll need them soon.
Alphinaud: With me, my friends—and be ready for anything.
Optional
Alphinaud: If there were magitek armor nearby, surely we would have heard them by now?
Alisaie: Keep an eye out, would you? Something doesn't feel right...
Lyse: I know you're out there...
Staying alert for imperial soldiers on the way to Specula Imperatoris
Alphinaud: See? What did I tell you? Let us continue on to Specula Imperatoris!
Optional
Alisaie: Whew. That would have been an unceremonious ending to our tale.
Lyse: Heh, nothing to it!
Speaking with Alphinaud
Alphinaud: Of course there were still soldiers lurking about... Fortunately, they were no match for Lyse. Come—Radiata is not much further. Alphinaud: Of course, in light of our recent encounter, it would be prudent to proceed with caution and remain vigilant for imperial forces...
Optional
Alisaie: I thought they said this was a village? It looks more like a work camp...
Alphinaud: Nary a soldier in sight. Mayhap they were recalled to Castrum Abania...
Speaking with Lyse
Lyse: Looks like it's safe to enter. I don't see any imperials... Lyse: Hmm. I don't see smoke above Castrum Abania anymore. Do you think they fixed the cannon already...?
