New dialogue for:
Yix in Ex Machina:
[b]Yix:[/b] We'll need to start planning the details of the war, <<You>>!
[b]Yix:[/b] I'm sure Sepulchure has a plan already.
[b]Yix:[/b] We need to go off and talk without interruptions, and really get things moving!
[b]Yix:[/b] ... Ok, so we've got the sneevils.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] Right. And the herd of togs.
[b]Yix:[/b] Mhmm, mhmm. You'll come up with a use for them, I'm sure.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] Right, right. Just... give me a few more days to brainstorm.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] And there are the... er...
[b]Yix:[/b] The other gnomes and I will help, of course.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] If only that tool storage facility were still here, I could -
[b]???:[/b] I am Dave v384.16. You are <<You>>, the <<Class>>, and Yix, acting leader of Popsprocket.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] Yix! Get back! I'll take him!
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] HALT. I am not the enemy you think I am.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] So... you're and enemy I don't know about yet?
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] Negative. [i]*clank*[/i] Affirmative. [i]*whirrrr*[/i] Results inconclusive at this time.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] Then who ARE you?
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] You are about to engage cyklons created by Balthar, a gnome who is producing machines beyond his level of skill.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] Thanks, we ARE aware of that much already.
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] I am an agent of those with interests similar to yours.
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] The coming war will impact the future of your race on this planet.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] Wait. What??
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] Please watch this.
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] When Sepulchure attacks the Cyklon army, he initiates a sequence of events which result in the cyklons replicating in extreme numbers.
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] They do this in order to resist him, but become so many that all life and unlife on Lore are threatened.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] So your race decided to EXTERMINA-
[b]Yix:[/b] Stop that.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] Now, don't take this the wrong way, but you're a Cyklon, right?
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] Affirmative, but of a different generation.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] And you don't WANT the Cyklons to mass-produce?
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] Affirmative. I am from the future, re-programmed and sent back by a man named Drakath.
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] He was told by a talking sword to prevent this future from happening.
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] I am to ensure that it doesn't. You will assist me.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] Drakath?! How did HE manage to teleport you?
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] My records indicate that I was contained within a unit with more volume on the inside than it's outer appearance indicated.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] !!!!!
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] The most efficient way to do this is to convince Sepulchure to exterminate the Cyklons entirely.
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] You will assist me in reaching my target.
[b]Yix:[/b] Well, we DO have a way to do that, if you'd prefer to avoid using the cannon.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] Trust me, we do.
[b]Yix:[/b] There's always the sky-net.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] A sky net? That sounds only slightly less dangerous than the cannon.
[b]Yix:[/b] Only if it becomes self-aware and decides it doesn't like you.
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] What is the probability of that event occurring?
[b]<<You>>:[/b] Well, it sounds like Yix made it, so ... about 50/50.
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] Your levity is good, human, it relieves tension.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] And the fear of death.
[b]<<You>>:[/b] Oh...
[b]<<You>>:[/b] ..It really IS a net.
[b]Yix:[/b] ..What did you expect?
[b]<<You>>:[/b] I'm... not really sure.
Sepulchure in Ex Machina:
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] AHAHAHA! And <<You>> will be fighting my minions AND these machines!
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] It won't be MY fault if he fails to survive. AND I'll have the Energy Orb.
[b]Drakath:[/b] But- but- I thought you wanted to crush the Cyklon army, too.
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] *sigh*
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] I don't CARE if there are cyklons left over. They can attack the rest of the towns on Lore, for all I care.
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] Any havoc they wreak only plays into my plans.
[b]Drakath:[/b] But you're going to destroy a lot of them, right? They're too creepy to keep around.
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] ...
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] Yes.
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] <<You>>!
[b]Drakath:[/b] With one of the Cyklons?!
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] So, a pre-emptive attack of my well-defended fortress? How brave of you. No... not brave. What's that other word?
[b]Drakath:[/b] Foolish?
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] That's it!
[b]<<You>>:[/b] Oh no. This time I'm not running things. It's all Dave's show right now. He wanted to meet you.
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] Affirmative. I was sent to speak to the human who intends to steal the Energy Orb and attack the Cyklon army.
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] Might makes right, and I am VERY mighty. If that gnome who has it now can stop me from taking it, he can keep it.
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] You are the very foolish human, to think that you could exterminate enough of the Cyklons to reach the Energy Orb.
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] [i]*sneer*[/i] you underestimate me, machine. My powers far outstrip those of some buckets of bolts.
[b]Drakath:[/b] But... doesn't <<You>> want to-
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] Be quiet, Drakath. I'm boasting.
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] We have computed your chances of success. They approach zero.
[b]Drakath:[/b] I could swear <<You>> wanted to defeat the cyk-
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] You will see, machine...
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] You and <<You>> both! You doubt me?! I will obliterate ALL the Cyklons!
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] This is how the DARKNESS takes care of problems! And we're...
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] ...STARTING WITH YOU!
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] Will I... dream? [i]*whirrrr*[/i] My mind... [i]*clank*[/i].... it's going.
[b]Dave v384.16:[/b] [i]Daisy... Daisy.... give me your ....... answer....... do.......[/i]
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] And as for you, <<You>>...
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] Since you kindly obliged me by entering my fortress voluntarily, why don't I just take care of you now?
[b]Drakath:[/b] My Lord? Weren't you told NOT to-
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] Drakath, go do something useful. NOW.
[b]Drakath:[/b] ... Yes, My Lord.
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] <<You>>, get out. Go gather your precious allies. I will crush them all. War is coming!
Drakath in Ex Machina:
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] AHAHAHA! And <<You>> will be fighting my minions AND these machines!
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] It won't be MY fault if he fails to survive. AND I'll have the Energy Orb.

[b]Sepulchure:[/b] ...
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] Yes.
[b]Doom Blade:[/b] SEPULCHURE! DEAL WITH... THIS.
[b]Drakath:[/b] ...Hey boss?
[b]Drakath:[/b] ...Ever get the feeling like someone is watching you?
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] <<You>>!
[b]Drakath:[/b] With one of the Cyklons?!
[b]Sepulchure:[/b] So, a pre-emptive attack of my well-defended fortress? How brave of you. No... not brave. What's that other word?
