I am glad you came as you promised.[ST:wait ] |
| 2 |
|
qev051301_MSG0002 |
Allow me to introduce my master, Adolphus.[ST:wait ] |
| 3 |
|
qev051301_MSG0003 |
I wish we had the time to share a drink and become[ST:n ]properly acquainted, but I fear I must get straight to[ST:n ]the point.[ST:wait ] |
| 4 |
|
qev051301_MSG0004 |
New rumors of the Celeste Three have arisen.[ST:wait ] |
| 5 |
|
qev051301_MSG0005 |
A group of men are... Well, they WERE keeping a[ST:n ]hoard of white gold.[ST:wait ] |
| 6 |
|
qev051301_MSG0006 |
These men are no longer alive.[ST:wait ] |
| 7 |
|
qev051301_MSG0007 |
Their treasure, however, remains hidden behind a door[ST:n ]armed with a most formidable security system, or so[ST:n ]the stories go.[ST:wait ] |
| 8 |
|
qev051301_JNK0010 |
Nod |
| 9 |
|
qev051301_SEL0011 |
Say it's a story you're well familiar with. |
| 10 |
|
qev051301_JNK0020 |
Guess |
| 11 |
|
qev051301_SEL0021 |
Ask if Adolphus aims to open that door. |
| 12 |
|
qev051301_MSG0008 |
Your information network is impressive.[ST:wait ] |
| 13 |
|
qev051301_MSG0009 |
I knew Ga Bewhe would find me an astute BLADE[ST:n ]operative, and I am not disappointed.[ST:wait ] |
| 14 |
|
qev051301_MSG0010 |
Which brings us to my proposal.[ST:wait ] |
| 15 |
|
qev051301_MSG0011 |
You will gather the four keys needed to open the door.[ST:wait ] |
| 16 |
|
qev051301_MSG0012 |
In return, I will pay you a most fair reward.[ST:n ]How does five million credits sound?[ST:wait ] |
| 17 |
|
qev051301_JNK0030 |
Accept |
| 18 |
|
qev051301_SEL0031 |
Agree to the deal. |
| 19 |
|
qev051301_JNK0040 |
Negotiate |
| 20 |
|
qev051301_SEL0041 |
Press Adolphus for more money. |
| 21 |
|
qev051301_MSG0013 |
Always a pleasure working with sensible people.[ST:wait ] |
| 22 |
|
qev051301_MSG0014 |
White gold's trading price has always been infamously[ST:n ]volatile, you see.[ST:wait ] |
| 23 |
|
qev051301_MSG0015 |
I was bracing for the worst when it came to negotiating[ST:n ]our rate.[ST:wait ] |
| 24 |
|
qev051301_MSG0016 |
It seems we have a [ST:Gender p1=businessman p2=businesswoman ] on our hands.[ST:wait ] |
| 25 |
|
qev051301_MSG0017 |
I suppose that's standard operating procedure for this[ST:n ]sort of thing.[ST:wait ] |
| 26 |
|
qev051301_MSG0018 |
The trading price for white gold is especially volatile,[ST:n ]even compared to other rare metals. I expect you're[ST:n ]well aware of this fact, yes?[ST:wait ] |
| 27 |
|
qev051301_MSG0019 |
I understand your desire to push for a higher price,[ST:n ]but my position already has a great deal of risk.[ST:n ]This is a gamble we'll need to take together.[ST:wait ] |
| 28 |
|
qev051301_MSG0020 |
What I offer you is a fifty-fifty split,[ST:n ]which is more than fair.[ST:wait ] |
| 29 |
|
qev051301_MSG0021 |
Take it or leave it.[ST:wait ] |
| 30 |
|
qev051301_MSG0022 |
As I said, you will be gathering four keys in total.[ST:n ]Please begin your search immediately.[ST:wait ] |
| 31 |
|
qev051301_MSG0023 |
I await your report, and trust it will be good news.[ST:wait ] |
| 32 |
|
qev051301_MSG0024 |
When next we meet, I expect it will be in front of the[ST:n ]vault door. I look forward to it greatly.[ST:wait ] |
| 33 |
|
qev051301_MSG0025 |
Now, as for the keys' whereabouts, I believe I can be[ST:n ]of some help.[ST:wait ] |
| 34 |
|
qev051301_MSG0026 |
If I am not mistaken, you are in possession of three of[ST:n ]them yourself.[ST:wait ] |
| 35 |
|
qev051301_MSG0027 |
My master is not yet aware of that particular fact,[ST:n ]but you need not hide it from me.[ST:wait ] |
| 36 |
|
qev051301_MSG0028 |
I selected you for this job precisely because I knew you[ST:n ]held them.[ST:wait ] |
| 37 |
|
qev051301_MSG0029 |
If you supply those three, I will supply you with the[ST:n ]location of the fourth.[ST:wait ] |
| 38 |
|
qev051301_MSG0030 |
A win-win proposal, don't you think?[ST:wait ] |
| 39 |
|
qev051301_MSG0031 |
All I ask in return is a portion of your share.[ST:n ]I think that a more pleasant option for both of us[ST:n ]than for me to attempt to take your keys by force.[ST:wait ] |
| 40 |
|
qev051301_JNK0050 |
Query |
| 41 |
|
qev051301_SEL0051 |
Ask Ga Bewhe why she hasn't told[ST:n ]Adolphus about your keys. |
| 42 |
|
qev051301_JNK0060 |
Tease |
| 43 |
|
qev051301_SEL0061 |
Mock Ga Bewhe for being such a schemer. |
| 44 |
|
qev051301_MSG0032 |
I hope that you will give me your trust, seeing as I am[ST:n ]the one who included you in this proposal.[ST:wait ] |
| 45 |
|
qev051301_MSG0033 |
My master's trade draws massive profits,[ST:n ]but my salary remains a pittance.[ST:wait ] |
| 46 |
|
qev051301_MSG0034 |
I require as much money as possible to ease the[ST:n ]poverty my people face.[ST:wait ] |
| 47 |
|
qev051301_MSG0035 |
And for your part, you stand to receive a fortune for[ST:n ]the small effort of acquiring but one more key.[ST:wait ] |
| 48 |
|
qev051301_MSG0036 |
Far from it, I assure you—it is my employer who is the[ST:n ]villain here.[ST:wait ] |
| 49 |
|
qev051301_MSG0037 |
But the influence he holds makes him unassailable.[ST:wait ] |
| 50 |
|
qev051301_MSG0038 |
I am merely trying to secure money to improve the[ST:n ]conditions of my impoverished people.[ST:wait ] |
| 51 |
|
qev051301_MSG0039 |
Surely that is reasonable justification?[ST:wait ] |
| 52 |
|
qev051301_MSG0040 |
Now, as for the final key...[ST:wait ] |
| 53 |
|
qev051301_MSG0041 |
It seems a BLADE named Law is in possession of it.[ST:wait ] |
| 54 |
|
qev051301_MSG0042 |
He works for a fellow called Wang—I believe their[ST:n ]team is currently in Sylvalum on a mission.[ST:wait ] |
| 55 |
|
qev051301_MSG0043 |
As a fellow BLADE, you should have no problem[ST:n ]approaching them in the field.[ST:wait ] |
| 56 |
|
qev051301_MSG0044 |
Perhaps if you join them in their work,[ST:n ]an opportunity to secure the key will present itself.[ST:wait ] |
| 57 |
|
qev051301_MSG0045 |
I leave the means to you, though. As far as we are[ST:n ]concerned, all that matters is that you acquire it.[ST:wait ] |
| 58 |
|
qev051301_MSG0046 |
I wish you great success.[ST:wait ] |
