Dialogue
*You are on a yellow brick road leading to the Jadeite Ruins; you fight various monsters until you and Sir Ano are stopped by an old witch.*
Azza Kadellya: I've been waiting for you, my pretties.
<Character>: Er, Ano, do you have any idea who this is?
Sir Ano: Don't you know her? You're the one who's been going around being a hero. Have you killed any yagas lately? Maybe she wants revenge.
<Character>: How do you expect me to keep track of every antagonist I've taken out? Really now. I'd need a logbook or something.
Azza Kadellya: <Character>, you've been meddling where you aren't wanted for too long and sticking your nose where it doesn't belong.
Azza Kadellya: Ruining perfectly laid plans just because you think they're "evil" or "going to destroy the world."
Azza Kadellya: You've been slaughtering yagas since you were a young hero, just knee- high to a sneevil! It's GOT to stop!
Azza Kadellya: Now you're trying to train more of you? Did you even explain the advantages of being bad to your little pactoganol pupil?
<Character>: What would you tempt him with? The inability to bathe, a fear of clean water? You villains are a pretty dirty lot.
Azza Kadellya: It's not too late for you, little Knight. I could use a Captain of the Guard.
Azza Kadellya: Just think, command of my soldiers, a snazzy black uniform, the ability to chant rousing and inspirational nonsense songs as you patrol...
Sir Ano: Well, I do love a good nonsense song. But no! I would never betray the trust-
Azza Kadellya: Oooh, "evil is so bad!" Blah blah blah. "It feels good to help people!" Yadda yadda yadda. Well, if you won't take my offer...
Sir Ano: Nope!
<Character>: I told you so.
Azza Kadellya: Heroes are so smug when they think they're right. Fine! I'll get you, <Character>, and your little protege, too!
Battle! - begins battle with Azzakedellya.
*You continue your path after the battle, fighting various monsters along the way; eventually, you and Sir Ano enter the wizard's tower in the Jadeite Ruins; it appears that he is not home.*
Sir Ano: Excuse me? Sir Wizard?
<Character>: Doesn't look like anyone's here. Maybe he's off getting his hair and nails done?
Sir Ano: Look at all his stuff! Stuffed bird on a stick, potion bottles, crystal ball...
<Character>: I wouldn't touch his stuff... magic does funny things to ordinary objects. Have I ever told you about Cysero's laundry?
Sir Ano: His laundr- Did the curtain just move?
*Sir Ano starts to shake and walks up to the curtain; he pulls the rope and out poofs the wizard, Mar'vel; Mar'vel then says:*
WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!?!
*Sir Ano then faints; sometime later, Sir Ano wakes up and meets Mar'vel.*
Sir Ano: I was, uh, looking for you! Er, a note. A note from you. Saying when you'd be back.
Mar'vel: WHY WOULD I- ahem. No need to yell now that I'm right here. Why would I be behind a curtain?
Sir Ano: Uh...
Mar'vel: I hope you haven't frightened Winkie, my gnome. He naps behind the curtain.
<Character>: Where were you?
Mar'vel: In the back, working on a way for ordinary people to fly. Without magic or magical creatures. See, the premise is very simple, really-
<Character>: I'm sure! I'm sure it's fascinating. Honest. But my friend here-
Sir Ano: Your wisdom and, uh, wonderfulness is widely known! I wanted to ask you if you could tell me about my future, and what is in store for me.
Sir Ano: I'm afraid I'll never be able to be a real hero, and do all the brave and noble things a hero is supposed to do!
Mar'vel: A hero is not a hero because he is noble and brave, a hero is a hero because he's famous and people fear what he can do!
Mar'vel: Just get yourself a skilled Public Relations minion and you'll be set.
<Character>: That doesn't sound quite right.
Mar'vel: Oh, my. Oh, do forgive me. I've confused the speech for advising aspiring villains with the one for idealistic young heroes.
Sir Ano: You give pep talks to bad guys, too?
Mar'vel: A wizard's got to pay rent too, you know! And villains pay really well when you stroke their egos.
Sir Ano: Riiiiiiight.
<Character>: *Psst! I don't think he's really what you're looking for in an advisor, Ano.*
Sir Ano: Um. Er. Thanks for your... help... I guess, Sir Wizard. I think we're going to be going now, though.
Mar'vel: Are you sure you don't want to stay? I could finish explaining my experi-ment. You could take it for a test flight! I'm sure it's ready... almost!
<Character>: Er, no, that's alright. We really need to be getting back to the Keep.
Sir Ano: I'm sure we've been missed by now, and I miss it! The jousting, the jesting-
<Character>: And the most unstable outhouse in the realm.
Sir Ano: Really, when you think about it, there's no place like Oaklore!
*After meeting Mar'vel, you and Sir Ano are now in the Jadeite Ruins; as they prepare to leave, something stops them.*
Sir Ano: Do... do you hear something? A sort of whistling sound?
<Character>: Now that you mention it...
*A giant house appears from above, landing at Sir Ano.*
Sir Ano: OW.
