Dialogue *Sundown, at the Haven, still besieged by The Rose and the dragons, Niki enters and reports to you, Kara, and Mritha.* Kara SuLema: I take it from your return that your mission went well, Niki? Niki: Indeed. I've located the leader of The Rose forces. Kara SuLema: Well done! Mritha: So? What's the plan? Kara SuLema: We're still holding strong, but we can't sustain the defense forever. Kara SuLema: Without fresh supplies from the outside, it's a matter of time before we're worn down. Kara SuLema: While the dragons are ferocious, without The Rose corralling them, they'll eventually disperse with enough counterforce. Kara SuLema: So we must strike at The Rose. Niki: If we can take out the leader of their forces here, we can drive The Rose to retreat. Kara SuLema: <Character>, that job falls to you. The rest of us will hold off The Rose soldiers to buy you time. Kara SuLema: I trust you to do what must be done. Are you ready? <Character>: Yes. We got this, right, <Dragon>? <Dragon>: Yeah! You can count on us! | *Confident roar!* Together with Niki, Kara, and Mritha, you manage to sneak into the Rose camp. *Mritha arrives at the Rose camp, where she notices that something is very wrong.* Mritha: What... what is this? *You, your dragon, Kara, Niki, and Mritha stand before a Rose Agent and a shackled dragon. Rose Agent: What? How did you– Mritha: What have you done to that dragon? Release it at once! Kara SuLema: Mritha, calm yourself, we have a job to do. Mritha: That dragon is chained! We have to stop this! Rose Agent: Such savagery. General Akanthus was right. You Vind are dangers to Lore. Rose Agent: This dragon has been... tamed. It is under my command. The command of The Rose. Kara SuLema: Akanthus... Rose Agent: You'll get your chance to meet him. After you're pacified. Rose Agent: Guards! Guards! The Vind is here! Kara SuLema: <Character>, this one is yours. We'll buy you all the time you need! *As Kara, Niki, and Mritha battle the guards offscreen, you and your dragon are left to stand before the Rose Agent and his shackled dragon.* Rose Agent: And who are you supposed to be? *You remain silent after the Rose Agent asks his question.* Rose Agent: No matter. Just another threat to be brought low! Battle! - begins battle with Bound Dragon and Rose Agent. Heal - fully replenishes HP, MP, and potions. Run Away! - returns to The Siege of Haven. *After the battle, the Rose Agent realizes who he was up against.* Rose Agent: No... it can't be! I know you! You're... you're... you're <Character>! Rose Agent: And you're helping the Vind! Rose Agent: I must... No... This isn't right! I must inform General Akanthus. Rose Agent: Dragon! Help me, dragon! *The Rose Agent escapes with his shackled dragon, who flies away with him.* <Character>: Wait! Get back here! *The Rose Agent's dragon continues to fly away, but it is intercepted by another dragon, which is revealed to be Odgne, Mritha's dragon.* <Character>: Whoa! Was that Odgne? <Character>: I guess... I guess that works... Later... *Nighttime, back in the Haven, you, your dragon, Kara, Niki, and Mritha discuss the events that transpired.* Kara SuLema: So... Akanthus is behind these attacks... Niki: He was the one who masterminded the Sanctuary assault, wasn't he? *Kara appears to be saddened after this revelation.* Kara SuLema: I don't understand. Kara SuLema: How could Jaania support such atrocities? ???: Excuse me. *Srazhenie interrupts their conversation.* Srazhenie: I apologize if I'm interrupting. Mritha: No, there's no need to apologize. How are you and your people faring, Srazhenie? Srazhenie: Thanks to you, Lady Mritha, the Vind, and yes, even the clawkin, Haven still stands. Srazhenie: The dragons have scattered, and The Rose retreated. Srazhenie: I come to offer my thanks. Kara SuLema: We could not stand idle and let you and your homes be destroyed. We only did what was right. Srazhenie: Regardless of your reasoning, it is by your blessings that we are still here today. Kara SuLema: I hope this isn't too forward of me, but should you want, Sulen'Eska and The Vind are ever open to the dravir. Srazhenie: It is... A tempting offer. But we dravir are a proud and independent people to a fault. Srazhenie: Many, no, most of us, will be content with finding a new Haven, a new place to live. Kara SuLema: I see. While I am disappointed, I understand that choice. Srazhenie: The dangers of a rebellion are far too well known to us. Srazhenie: That said, we leave it to the individual dravir. I will let your invitation be known. Srazhenie: Those that wish to join the Vind against The Rose shall be free to decide for themselves. Mritha: A wise decision, Srazhenie. Srazhenie: Perhaps with time our peoples will be able to come together in peace. But not while the threat of The Rose and the dragons looms over us. Srazhenie: Farewell. *Elsewhere, in a forest, the Rose Agent, still alive but seemingly unable to walk, uses his forearms to move away after the death of his shackled dragon.* Rose Agent: General... Akanthus... I must not fail... *The Rose Agent continues to move away as the scene fades to black.* Complete Quest Loot for DCs - opens ADB Loot for DCs shop.
