Cast
Scene 1: North Gustaberg {s}
A wounded soldier, Wolfram, wanders in from Gustaberg and crumples near the gate to Bastok...
Solitary Ant: Are you alright, soldier!? Ugh, that's a lot of blood... Ah... someone help me over here!
Wolfram: Take this... to a man named... Engelhart...
Solitary Ant: Get him to a medic!
You obtain key item: Clump of Animal Hair.
Scene 2: Bastok Markets (s)
Engelhart: Can I help you with something? A clump of animal hair... so, you're the replacement. This is a difficult item to procure -- you certainly live up to your recommendation. Our client will be pleased to work with one of your caliber. And how shall I address you?
You say your name.
Engelhart: A fine name, indeed. Very well, PLAYER. The client is expecting you at the waterfall in North Gustaberg. Do not keep him waiting.
Scene 3: North Gustaberg (s) at the Drachenfall
Three men approach...
Werner: Greetings. I am Werner, the Senator of Defense. And you must be PLAYER. Engelhart tells me you are a person to be trusted. Hm? You look surprised to see a man of my position. It should give you some idea of the gravity of the task at hand. You are about to become involved in a confidential matter that will affect the fate of this nation... no, of all the allied nations. Your discretion must be absolute. Your predecessor chose to ignore this warning, and subsequently lost my hard-earned trust. Engelhart will tell you what became of him. Now, here's the situation. I have ordered a xhifhut through Leadavox, a Goblin that resides on Gerivan Isle in the Vunkerl Inlet. You are simply required to pick up the instrument. Payment has already been made. Once you have the xhifhut, you are to deliver it to Engelhart. All further remuneration and communications will pass through him. We also suspect that a certain faction is --
Jeremias: Senator! We've been followed! It was a Galka, I believe!
Werner: A spy? Where is he now?
Jeremias: I'm afraid we lost him. I've never seen a Galka move so fast...
Werner: It must be another of Chairman Pale Eagle's men... Chase him down! Even if it means your life, we must capture that spy!
Jeremias: Sir!
Werner: The waterfall was a wise choice for this meeting. I doubt the details of our conversation were compromised. As I was saying, there is a certain faction that seeks to hinder our actions. Be on your guard.
Scene 4:Vunkerl Inlet
Leadavox: You came for the xhifhut? Well, it's ready. It was a hell of a job gettin' a hold of it, though. I think I deserve a little bonus. You bring me a gnole claw, you'll get the xhifhut.
You go retrieve a gnole claw...
Leadavox: You got the gnole claw? Here's your xhifhut, then. The Gigas love these gnole claws. They'll tell me all sortsa secrets now. Leadavox is their little buddy.
Obtained xhifhut.
Scene 5:Bastok Markets (s)
Engelhart: You have brought the xhifhut? Excellent, the senator will be pleased. Did you experience any trouble? Senator Werner was trailed by one of Chairman Pale Eagle's spies? The chairman is a senior member of the republican government, appointed to his position by President Prien himself... He often clashes with Senator Werner in matters of military policy. I don't know what schemes the chairman has in motion, but you would do well to keep an eye out. Oh, and there's one more thing I meant to ask. You're not the agent I was expecting, are you? I was told to welcome the one who brought me a clump of animal hair. It wasn't until later that I discovered the real agent had collapsed at the gates to the city. If the senator should realize I've introduced him to the wrong operative! Oh, and it's not just my neck that's on the line -- the senator is a very thorough man. You must continue to accept Senator Werner's tasks as if nothing were amiss. Your continued well-being, not to mention mine, depends on it. A chance meeting has landed you right in the thick of things, my friend. I have a feeling we'll be getting to know eah other very well indeed. Ah, I have your remuneration. Jeuno currency. Untraceable.
A cloaked Galka runs past you, thrusting a note in your hand... you receive the key item "warning letter."
