Dialogue
When approaching Kara SuLema for the first time:
Kara SuLema: Welcome, <Character>. I am Kara SuLema, leader of the Vind.
Kara SuLema: I am sure you have many questions of me, but first, I must ask of yourself—
Kara SuLema: Why have you sought us out? What are you looking for with the Vind?
Kara SuLema: Informing oneself is a wise first step. Thank you for humoring my request.
Kara SuLema: Now, what would you ask of me, <Character>?
Kara SuLema: We are a collection of those who have been wronged, or know those who have been wronged by the actions of The Rose.
Kara SuLema: We are refugees, fighters, volunteers, and family. We even have a contingent of DragonLords!
Kara SuLema: We rescue whoever we can from The Rose...
Kara SuLema: ...but maybe it's time we took more active measures in stopping their tyranny.
Kara SuLema: If you're willing to join us, to help our cause, we may be able to start pushing The Rose back.
Kara SuLema: The Rose is... complicated.
Kara SuLema: There may be those with good intentions, but they all run unchecked. It all comes down to Jaania.
Kara SuLema: She is the leader of The Rose. After she saved Lore, she rose to prominence as a hero and savior, but she's since withdrawn.
Kara SuLema: And so, her organization has grown and spread beyond her vision.
Kara SuLema: Many now take advantage of the name of The Rose to pursue their own agenda.
Kara SuLema: But the responsibility still lies with Jaania. The Rose is her organization and their actions are therefore hers.
Kara SuLema: Even so... I do not believe... I cannot believe that Jaania would approve of the methods being used by her subordinates.
Kara SuLema: The rumors you've heard are all true. The Rose captures and imprisons magical creatures and peoples.
Kara SuLema: All in the name of protecting Greenguard and Lore from 'the dangers of magic'.
Kara SuLema: I hope you will be willing to help us stop The Rose and save those who can be saved.
When approaching Kara SuLema thereafter:
Kara SuLema: Welcome, <Character>. Your legend precedes you.
Kara SuLema: I am busy at the moment, but I shall soon require your aid.
Kara SuLema: Welcome, <Character>. Your legend precedes you.
Kara SuLema: I am the leader of The Vind and I require your aid.
Kara SuLema: With your arrival, <Character>, the fight against The Rose can begin in earnest. We must act with haste.
Quests
Kara SuLema: My thanks, <Character>. Listen carefully to my instructions.
Kara SuLema: The Rose continues to oppress and imprison the innocent. With your help, <Character>, I believe we can strike back and turn the storm.- Song on the Wind
Kara SuLema: In order for our plans to go forward, <Character>, we need to build items that remind us of the wind. Windchimes are simple, yet beautiful.
Kara SuLema: The music is never the same, yet always causes one to pause.
Kara SuLema: Gather the materials needed in Surewould Forest and bring them back so they can be built.
- Swirl of Colour
Kara SuLema: Have you ever seen a Vindeflauer?
Kara SuLema: They are extremely rare, especially after what happened to the Temple of the Wind.
Kara SuLema: We need to get our hands on these flowers, but this will be difficult.
- Dancing Breeze
Kara SuLema: In an older time, my people had windmills everywhere, dotting the fields and settlements.
Kara SuLema: Yes, they drew our water, but they ran on the wind's energy and pulse.
Kara SuLema: Our very lifeline was possible because of the wind magic that flowed through those colourful sails.
Kara SuLema: And now, that lifeline will be placed where people can wonder and enjoy the wind's effect and magic.
Smoke in the Trees
Kara SuLema: One of my greatest watchers has returned, <Character>, and with disturbing news.
Kara SuLema: One of my watchers has brought disturbing news to me regarding a nearby village. It's time to see the actions of The Rose for yourself.
Rescue of Elanee
Kara SuLema: Ogorek is losing hope of finding his wife, Elanee.
Kara SuLema: My Watcher's have located the border prison that she and the Clawkin have been taken too. It is time to mount a rescue!
Kara SuLema: With the aid of Carat's directions, my watchers have located the border prison that she and the Clawkin have been taken too. It's rescue time!
Z
Kara SuLema: Once Elanee is safe, find me and we'll face the monster that's been making the shackles!
Freedom Fighters
Kara SuLema: I have someone I want you to meet, <Character>.
Dragon Rose War! - teleports you to War of the Dragon Rose.
After the War
Kara SuLema: The War is over... for now. We still have work to do, though, <Character>.
The Fairy Court
Kara SuLema: The Fairy Court and Queen Maeve are in danger!
B.F.C.
Kara SuLema: Hurry, <Character>, the Fairy Court is in danger and needs our help!
The War Room
Kara SuLema: The Rose is attacking, <Character>.
Choose
Kara SuLema: We need your help to defend, <Character>. The Rose is attacking all around the swamp!
- Quest! - teleports you to Choose.
Weapon Shards
Kara SuLema: Bring me 5 Rose Weapon Shards, <Character>. We'll reforge them and use their own weapons against them!
- Turn in Shards - removes 5 Rose Weapon Shard from your Inventory.
Kara SuLema: You've done well, <Character>. I hope the Rose has learnt the dangers of the swamp.
Mission Possible
Kara SuLema: I dare say, <Character>, you have had a tumultuous adventure learning about Lore and all the secrets it holds.
Kara SuLema: You have risked much to aid those you have once called enemy, creatures who are deeper than you anticipated.
Kara SuLema: Ogerek, Mritha, Niki, Bacaju' and Melissa are all so grateful for your selflessness. But this is only the beginning.
Kara SuLema: Though you have seen one of their prison camps, the Rose has a place that is more dangerous and fearsome where more of our allies and friends are locked up.
Kara SuLema: Within the depths of this despicable place are people who inspire me.
Kara SuLema: If it weren't for them, I may never have decided to do what I am doing. One in particular means a great deal to me. It is time to repay them for their sacrifices.
Kara SuLema: If you're willing to help me, <Character>, I have a special mission for you.
InspecZion
Kara SuLema: I think we are ready.
Kara SuLema: We don't *laughs* have much *laughs* choice.
Kara SuLema: Svera! We must make sure *laughs* that this is a very formal and serious affair.
Kara SuLema: *tries to calm herself* We must. Oh, Svera, I haven't laughed in so long.
Kara SuLema: There is something I must I do, <Character>.
Broken Wings
Kara SuLema: I can only hope. Ready or not, it's time to go.
Talk
Kara SuLema: Greetings, <Character>. It is an honour to finally meet you.
Kara SuLema: I am an elf, the wind variety to be specific.
Kara SuLema: My people have not faired well in recent history and have kept ourselves hidden from most of Lore.
Kara SuLema: Your reputation is widespread and I had hoped to meet you one day. I am Kara SuLema, leader of the Wind Elves.
Kara SuLema: When The Rose began this campaign, we knew we could not stay hidden any longer.
Kara SuLema: And now, amidst our new home, we plan even now how to counter this threat.
Kara SuLema: You have crossed the threshold of Sulen'eska.
Kara SuLema: Had I not wanted you to see this place, you would have continued on your way, passing us by.
Kara SuLema: It is here where we gather and plan how best to put a stop to The Rose.
Kara SuLema: All that are here are waiting, anticipating when we can finally make our move to show The Rose we mean business.
Kara SuLema: I have tasks for you, to help us remind the world of magic's wonder and usefulness. Will you help us?
Kara SuLema: Is there anything you'd like to discuss?
- Sulen'Eska
Kara SuLema: Sulen'Eska is a home for many who have nowhere else to go.
Kara SuLema: It is also our base of operations, and our training grounds.
Kara SuLema: We keep ourselves safe through magic and vigilance.
Kara SuLema: We use the winds, the swamp, and our senses to prevent The Rose from finding us... but they are ever tenacious.
Kara SuLema: It is not an easy life, but we are united and have each other.
- Wind Elves
Kara SuLema: I- Ah. You really have been frozen for quite a while, haven't you?
Kara SuLema: The Wind Elves came here from the Dreamwood some... time ago.
Kara SuLema: The Dreamwood was and forever will be our home, but certain circumstances led to our group leaving and settling here.
Kara SuLema: I apologize. It is an uncomfortable topic. Perhaps we could discuss this at a later time.

Swirl of Colour and Fragrance
Kara SuLema: Have you seen such a perfect flower. It spins as the wind blows, casting its sweet fragrance into the air.
Kara SuLema: Anyone who smells them will be reminded of the simplicity of wind magic and wonder how it was lost.
Kara SuLema: Takes these to Swordhaven. Perhaps it will instill a longing for those days.
Dancing On the Breeze
Kara SuLema: As the wheel spins, the colours dance in the air.
Kara SuLema: Surely such a display will help our world remember the beauty of the wind.
Smoke in the Trees
Kara SuLema: "N" came back last night with unsatisfactory reports. I am not happy at all.
Kara SuLema: Recently, there have been some disturbing reports from our ally, Niki.
Kara SuLema: She is very secretive. She has spent the last four years being "N" so that those she watches out for remain safe.
Kara SuLema: The Rose would love nothing more than to learn about her and take her into custody.
Kara SuLema: She is a very secretive mage who joined our cause some time ago.
Kara SuLema: Her specialties of stealth and scouting have proven useful.
Kara SuLema: I fear that the effects of her actions may have been indirectly detected by The Rose, however.
Kara SuLema: The Rose is in the vicinity of a Clawkin village. In another day or so, they will have found the village.
Kara SuLema: The Rose has apparently been targeting a Clawkin village in the swamp, observing and occasionally taking captives.
Kara SuLema: She was in the middle of evacuating them when she was attacked.
Kara SuLema: Niki has been evacuating the few she can while trying to remain undetected, but it seems that a larger Rose force is now on the way.
Kara SuLema: She brought the message, Bote. But, you should have been safe for another day.
Kara SuLema: Is everything alright, Bote? What's the matter?
Kara SuLema: Niki's back? But she was supposed to be keeping watch–
Kara SuLema: Because, Bote, the Rose wants something it cannot have or control.
Kara SuLema: Please, go to the medic and get your wounds attended to. <Character> and I will right this.
Kara SuLema: I see. It seems The Rose has acted much quicker than we expected. We must put a stop to this at once.
Kara SuLema: You wanted to see evidence of the evils of The Rose, <Character>? You're welcome to join me.
Kara SuLema: Please, Bote, do not worry. We will do everything in our power to save what we can.
Kara SuLema: <Character>, there is much you humans have neglected in this world. The Clawkin... are a wonderful race of people.
Kara SuLema: All in good time, you will get your answers. For now, we must help the village out.
Kara SuLema: Just as there are humans who commit great evils, there are Clawkin who eschew their tribes and are full of hatred.
Kara SuLema: As the Clawkin are normally so secluded, it makes sense that you've only had poor encounters with the ones you've met in the past.
Kara SuLema: We... are too late!
Kara SuLema: We... we're too late...
Kara SuLema: Had I used my magic, we would have been here almost immediately.
Kara SuLema: But we weren't fast enough...
Kara SuLema: The poor Clawkin...
Kara SuLema: What?
Kara SuLema: Not one step closer.
Kara SuLema: Who are you?
Kara SuLema: I know where this is. We must go after her.
Kara SuLema: Let him run. He poses no threat to us.
Kara SuLema: But this...
Kara SuLema: It appears as though we still have a chance to save these poor souls, and possibly others.
Kara SuLema: Will you join us, <Character>?
Rescue of Elanee
Kara SuLema: There are more ways to win a war besides a brute force. There is a time and place for everything.
Kara SuLema: Of course, <Character>. Today will be a mix of force and care, as odd as that sounds.
Kara SuLema: She is not the only one held hostage here. There are... Clawkin prisoners here. All must be freed.
Kara SuLema: I will search for the Clawkin. You find Elanee.
Freedom Fighters
Kara SuLema: Yes, Bajacu'. The Rose has been seeking out all who can touch and use magic. No one is safe.
Kara SuLema: They raided a village close by and took all that they could of your people.
Kara SuLema: It is a long story of heartbreak, pain and the desire to make everything right, safe and balanced.
Kara SuLema: I know , Bajacu'. All of those here in our camp know that. It is why we are here.
Kara SuLema: Let me introduce you to the one that has helped make our move and rebellion possible.
Kara SuLema: Bajacu', this is <Character>, the one who was frozen before this started and was revived at the right time to stop it.
Kara SuLema: Niki... it has been a long time. I am sorry for the trouble the Rose has caused you.
Kara SuLema: Of course. Excuse me, <Character>. Let me introduce Niki. She is "N", my informant and the guardian of those like Bajacu'.
Kara SuLema: People whom the world has overlooked or dismissed.
Kara SuLema: They depend on her to keep them safe and communicate with me when things go wrong.
Kara SuLema: I will explain later. We must make haste to the outlying villages.
Kara SuLema: We need to get to the Freedom Camp. Another wave of guards are headed this way. Let's get them out of our way and go.
Rose War Intro
Kara SuLema: <Character>, please take a deep breath. This isn't how you were meant to find these things out. But I did promise you an explanation.
Kara SuLema: The Dravir are slaves, <Character>. A long time ago, a schism in magic caused Dragonkind to diverge drastically in form and function.
Kara SuLema: The Dragons were messing with magic they did not understand, but insisted on mastering.
Kara SuLema: Erratic magic was dispersed through the areas where the Dragons were experimenting
Kara SuLema: A large part of the Dragons went unscathed, but a small population was infused with this erratic magic.
Kara SuLema: The magic slowly changed the small group into the form you see today. Dragons were able to use their own magic to force the Dravir...
Kara SuLema: ... to grow into smaller beings, thinking that physical size would help to keep them under control.
After the War
Kara SuLema: Let us meet back here in, say two weeks? I will hopefully have some information for you. If not I will send word to meet at another time.
Kara SuLema: Niki, I need you to take <Character> back to the Clawkin settlements and assess damages and who may be missing.
The Fairy Court
Kara SuLema: Yes, very generous, but completely expected.
Kara SuLema: Niki?
Kara SuLema: Niki, you cannot blame yourself. Having two enemies attack us divided us in the worst way.
Kara SuLema: Niki, set your eyes on those you have left. Let me deal with those who are chained.
Kara SuLema: You still must help protect the Fairies. They are vulnerable, even if those who fight against them have trouble defeating them.
Mission Possible
Kara SuLema: These are the floor plans to Espina Rosa, <Character>.
Kara SuLema: Acquiring them was a particularly lengthy task, but I was able to get in to get them and get out undetected.
Kara SuLema: They outline the quarters of the Ruined Fortress.
Kara SuLema: Precisely.
Kara SuLema: A mage and ally of ours was captured by the Rose years ago and imprisoned there.
Kara SuLema: A potentially valuable asset to the Vind and another thorn in the side of the Rose if freed.
Kara SuLema: Melissa's contingents have done much for us in terms of learning about the prison.
Kara SuLema: After her last foray, with you, I know now more then ever, we must strike soon.
Kara SuLema: Unfortunately, as much fun as that could be, it is not a feasible option.
Kara SuLema: Espina Rosa also doubles up as a Rose garrison; a horde of Rose Soldiers is stationed there.
Kara SuLema: There are no ferries to the island the prison is on.
Kara SuLema: They have portals outside the fortress that lead to the Rose's main headquarters in the capital city.
Kara SuLema: It is how they get their supplies and it is the only way to get there, at least, the only way to get there without arousing suspicion.
Kara SuLema: If Espina Rosa is attacked and word gets out, reinforcements will arrive in no time at all.
Kara SuLema: Remember these?
Kara SuLema: So they are.
Kara SuLema: When Espina Rosa was built, it was with the same principle as these in mind: to bind and control those close to magic.
Kara SuLema: As a consequence, it is made entirely out of this material.
Kara SuLema: The fortress itself is covered with the sigils you see here, both inside and outside. Hence its name: the "Runed Fortress".
Kara SuLema: Magic cannot be done, nor can it penetrate, within its quarters.
Kara SuLema: They also scan everyone that enters for magic and facial recognition at the portal.
Kara SuLema: Simple: You will infiltrate.
Kara SuLema: Normally, you would be correct.
Kara SuLema: Svera?
Kara SuLema: Please bring Edd in.
Kara SuLema: <Character>, this is Edd. A Rose Soldier of Espina Rosa.
Kara SuLema: Edd recently transferred to Espina Rosa and within his first days there, he was put on temporary leave for food poisoning causing amnesia.
Kara SuLema: No one at Espina Rosa really knows Edd due to his leave so soon after his deployment. He's not expected to remember anything.
Kara SuLema: And, to be honest, I don't think they expect him to be himself after all this.
Kara SuLema: Correct. As for your face, here.
Kara SuLema: It is a species of carnivorous plant unique to Betrubung Swamp. The Face Nommer.
Kara SuLema: In order to attract unsuspecting creatures, a special membrane inside its mouth imprints a copy of the face of its last victim...
Kara SuLema: ... and a second, bulbous head reproduces a flexible, but authentic clone.
Kara SuLema: The Vind has found that the face can be place on the head...
Kara SuLema: ... and act as an effective, non-magical mask as the plant makes it through its own natural secretions.
Kara SuLema: <Character>, I would like you to find this plant in the Swamp, bring it here so we can make a mask of Edd's face for you to use...
Kara SuLema: ... and infiltrate Espina Rosa. I would trust no one else for this mission and this is not a chance I intend to let slide.
Kara SuLema: Good. If you can take care of the plant, I will take care of the rest of the preparations.
InspecZion
Kara SuLema: Hmm....
Kara SuLema: As I thought.
Kara SuLema: I believe, <Character>, that you are good to go. Althouh the mask's skin texture is a bit pale, its every feature looks like a perfect mimic of Edd's.
Kara SuLema: Positive. It will work.
Kara SuLema: We don't have time to find another Face Nommer and make another face either way. We have to take the chance.
Kara SuLema: Are you ready for your final briefing?
Kara SuLema: Follow me then.
Kara SuLema: Since the portal to Espina Rosa is near the Rose's Headquarters, you will first need to journey to Swordhaven.
Kara SuLema: Journey alone; we cannot risk you being seen with anyone else.
Kara SuLema (thinking): Their laughter will give you away.
Kara SuLema: It will be easier for you to move around than I when I journeyed alone.
Kara SuLema: In Swordhaven, your task is simple: Find the portal area and pass inspection.
Kara SuLema: Getting into Espina Rosa will be simpler after that. Just go through the portal to the island and the guards should open the doors for you there.
Kara SuLema: Once inside Espina Rosa, move quickly. Svera?
Kara SuLema: And below the latter is the Third Level. This last level is where our friend remains and where you need to go.
Kara SuLema: Unfortunately, we do not.
Kara SuLema: The Third Level is where Espina Rosa keeps its prisoners that it considers to be its most dangerous. Despite all our information gathering...
Kara SuLema: ... We know nothing else of the Third Level. You will have to take care of that on your own.
Kara SuLema: Here are Edd's papers, and some more information on your target.
Kara SuLema: Even with these plans, we could not find one. So we made one ourselves.
Kara SuLema: Here. Just next to the entry to the Third Level is the Cooks' Kitchen. Inside the kitchen, there is a hole in the floor for kitchen waste.
Kara SuLema: This hole opens up onto an underground water way that eventually end up into the sea surrounding the island.
Kara SuLema: Although normally too small to be of any use, the tireless and risky effort of our gnomish allies has expanded it enough...
Kara SuLema: ... to let a Gnomish submersible through.
Kara SuLema: That is all I have, <Character>, the rest is up to you. Good luck.
Kara SuLema: Oh and <Character>?
Kara SuLema: Whatever happens, see to it that you return safe and sound.
Kara SuLema: Of course I do. I just... that mask, Svera...
On Broken Wings
Kara SuLema: I know. I am sorry. Svera knew where I was, but I also knew she wouldn't say anything definite.
Kara SuLema: It was out of my concern for you that I didn't tell you all where I was going.
Kara SuLema: Mritha, I know. But, as leader, I must be willing to do whatever it takes to get us to the next step.
Kara SuLema: And if something were to ever happen to me, Svera knows how things run; my expectations, my goals.
Kara SuLema: And both of you are fully capable of helping out.
Kara SuLema: As much as I can, Mritha.
Kara SuLema: Now, Svera, what do you have?
Kara SuLema: Then that is where I need to be.
Kara SuLema: No, I am sorry Mritha, Melissa, but this is what I have to do. I need to know what their next move is.
Kara SuLema: *sigh* Being a leader making sacrifices that sometimes aren't... well, ideal.
Kara SuLema: It's a lesson that I've learned many times in my lifetime - both as a student and as a leader.
Kara SuLema: I've failed in the past because I wasn't willing to make such a sacrifice. I will not let history repeat itself.
Kara SuLema: Mritha, please request that Odgne tell the other dragons that there is a potential raid or move against them coming.
Kara SuLema: Your group needs to have their eyes open and watching for anything at all strange.
Kara SuLema: I expected nothing less.
Kara SuLema: Melissa? Please make sure that you are ready to guide any and all races that are interested in moving once we have the opportunity.
Kara SuLema: It's what a leader must do. Now, I must go. Please, please, my friends, just do as I ask and do not worry.
Kara SuLema: So, it is as the reports say. Dragons and riders everywhere. I need to find Senthris, for where she is, Saellah is.
Kara SuLema: Ah, there is the beautiful Senthris. Shame she is on the wrong side. Where Senthris is, Saellah is.
Kara SuLema: Time to go...
Kara SuLema: Ugh...
An Uncertain Future
Kara SuLema: H-has Leon been thanked? I have not seen him, though I was told he.. he is responsible for getting me home.
Kara SuLema: Good. If we are not constantly learning, then our q.. quest is not perfect.
Kara SuLema: I have learned much as well. M-my heart is divided.
Kara SuLema: Yes. I learned that humans can be unbelievable cruel, heartless and empty.
Kara SuLema: I learned that... that the Rose isn't what we think it is.
Kara SuLema: And, I spoke to Jaania the one day Akanthus was absent.
Kara SuLema: How did you know, Bacaju'?
Kara SuLema: I think... I think something is wrong, even in the Rose camp. Jaania is not what I thought she was.
Kara SuLema: We spent all day talking. What she had to say is not what we have been led to believe.
Kara SuLema: No. I know there is good out there. Good people with magic. Good people who use it for good.
Kara SuLema: Yes, there are bad, but Jaania, the good always outweighs the bad.
Kara SuLema: You've seen it destroy your best friends. You've seen it freeze you. You've seen it terrorise. I know.
Kara SuLema: But, can't you think of anything good? Anything... wonderful?
Kara SuLema: When you studied in Swordhaven, did you not have teachers who showed you wonder, grace, and beauty of magic?
Kara SuLema: You were once the hope of all teachers. I know the stories. They are told in the quiet places when people wish to remember better times.
Kara SuLema: you were so natural, so graceful, so perfect. You were the shining example.
Kara SuLema: I am taking this seriously. You want to take from me something I treasure, love and enjoy.
Kara SuLema: You want to take from me my power to help and hold. I don't want to lose this.
Kara SuLema: What do you mean?
Kara SuLema: Is it really your place to make that decision though? You, alone, are making a decision that affects everyone on Lore.
Kara SuLema: Not just you and me, but Dragons, Dravir, Clawkin, Fairies, Pixies... Have you asked what they thought?
Kara SuLema: Oh, I see.
Kara SuLema: So, the magical, thinking, sentient, emotional beings like Clawkin or Dravir or Dragon, in shackles, is that what is good for them?
Kara SuLema: They are slaves to the Rose, sent out to do their bidding, and being SLAUGHTERED the whole time!
Kara SuLema: They are shells of who they are and slaves. Was slavery a part of your magical cleansing?
Kara SuLema: Jaania?
Kara SuLema: Ridding a world built on magic of magic is not the way to go. I will not give up my magic. You will have to kill me, Jaania.
Kara SuLema: No, and neither will my kin, and all other magic wielders who only want the best for the world around them.
Kara SuLema: Jaania, please don't do this. Don't... leave me here. Let me go. Let me prove to you that magic is good, kind, wonderful, beautiful.
Kara SuLema: You can always visit me, even if I was free.
Kara SuLema: I've been taken from Akanthus. If Jaania gave the order, he did not follow it.
Kara SuLema: If she asks, I will go. I need her to know she can trust me, magic and all.
Kara SuLema: Yes, if she asks for me one day, I will go to her. No matter what.
Escape from Espina Rosa
Kara SuLema: Here are Edd's papers, and some more information on your target.

Kara SuLema: How are you... feeling? You realize I am always here to listen to your confidences, don't you?
Kara SuLema: I'm also fine.
Kara SuLema: *soft laughter*
Kara SuLema: Your mission to Espina Rosa was a success, I was told?
Kara SuLema: ...
Kara SuLema: So my suspicions are confirmed... It's rather obvious if one thinks about it, but now we know for sure. Thank you for telling me this.
Kara SuLema: I... I've spoken with Jaania. Has anyone told you that?
Kara SuLema: I see...
Kara SuLema: <Character>, she's...
Kara SuLema: Misguided.
Kara SuLema: What she is doing is wrong, yes, and we will stop her. But why and what do you think this entire group exists for?
Kara SuLema: To stop The Rose... we cannot stoop to the level of the likes of Akanthus and the ones that work under him and return the same.
Kara SuLema: We cannot repeat the mistakes of the past. There must be a measure of compassion.
Kara SuLema: *sigh*
Kara SuLema: Is there anything else? If there are no pressing matters that require your insight right now, then you should enjoy your free time!
Kara SuLema: Great gales! <Character>!
Kara SuLema: This is a wonderful opportunity!
Kara SuLema: When is it happening?
Kara SuLema: Then we have absolutely no time to waste!
Kara SuLema: Svera!
Kara SuLema: Of course!
Kara SuLema: You categorically cannot appear in what you are wearing right now especially at a Royal Gala.
Kara SuLema: Everything... The Gala will be a delicately scripted event, where diplomacy and court etiquette are paramount.
Kara SuLema: But an audience with the king himself... Oh <Character>, this is something I would never be allowed to do... not even with the Rose present.
Kara SuLema: I need to prepare an extended list of questions you absolutely must ask him!
Kara SuLema: You will have the King's ear at your disposition, <Character>. He has the power to do something about the Rose.
Kara SuLema: And even if it doesn't work out, you will at least plant the seeds of doubt in his mind.
Kara SuLema: Which may grow into a tree of distrust.
Kara SuLema: It is an idiom, <Character>. Distrust for the Rose. The king will make a powerful ally, who can help us without the use for violence.
Kara SuLema: And if it fails, then as a last resort...
Kara SuLema: Let's get to work then!
Kara SuLema: Why would something go wrong?
Kara SuLema: I can do magic, <Character>, but... I can't make magical clothes.
Kara SuLema: And I don't know anyone who is able to conceal your <Class> gear under an evening gown.
Kara SuLema: This is not a craft the Vind or the Wind Elves have... we might just have to do this my way.
Kara SuLema: I knew of this land, but... these winds...
Kara SuLema: They are so full of magic, and yet... so hostile.
Kara SuLema: There is a burden in them so heavy... they can't bear it.
Kara SuLema: It's... it's so sad.
Kara SuLema: I will be fine, <Character>... Let's be on our way.
Kara SuLema: Pleased to meet you, Headmaster.
Kara SuLema: What's wrong?
Kara SuLema: Well... it looks like I wasn't needed after all!
Kara SuLema: Indeed. I am Kara Su'Lema from the wind elf kin. Are elves... scarce here?
Kara SuLema: <Character> is in grave need of clothes that are fit for a royal event. I have his measurements already with me.
Kara SuLema: My deepest thanks, Danyel. It was a pleasure to meet such a talented friend of <Character>'s!
The Gala
Kara SuLema: I am sorry, <Character>. <Dragon> can't come with you.
Kara SuLema: Why are you surprised?
Kara SuLema: <Dragon> could never come with you! It's simply too risky!
Kara SuLema: They are quite obviously a magical being... one of the most magical of them all!
Kara SuLema: You can't show up with your dragon. At the gala. In Swordhaven. A royal city. Under the Rose's jurisdiction!
Kara SuLema: What did they say?
Kara SuLema: I'm so sorry for this <Character>. I know you're close to them...
Kara SuLema: But <Dragon> can't go.
Kara SuLema: Someone else will be accompanying you, however. In case something goes wrong, as you've mentioned.
Kara SuLema: Melissa.
Kara SuLema: Precisely.
Kara SuLema: She has her ways. I've already spoken with her... and after some arguing, she is on her way to Swordhaven and will meet you there.
Kara SuLema: She will aid you in case there's trouble.
Kara SuLema: I know this isn't how you envisioned it, but it will have to do.
Kara SuLema: Ah!
Kara SuLema: Your friend Danyel was here earlier!
Kara SuLema: He dropped off the outfits and, I must say, they look absolutely dashing!
Kara SuLema: The fabric is beautiful! It's so pleasant to touch, and so... fragile, yet durable! I don't know how to describe it.
Kara SuLema: Well?
Kara SuLema: Try it on, of course!
Kara SuLema: Oh, <Character>!
Kara SuLema: You look absolutely marvelous!
Kara SuLema: You will be on everyone's lips, I am sure of that!
Kara SuLema: Which is a good thing. While talking to the king, please give off an aura of... positivity towards magic.
Kara SuLema: High-born nobles of Swordhaven are sheltered and fed lies about magic by the Rose.
Kara SuLema: As you know <Character>, I have my ways of finding the information I need to lead to go forwards.
Kara SuLema: Leaders of the Vind are chosen from those who are capable of doing so from the day they begin to lead.
Kara SuLema: And the wind carries tales from all corners of the world, which includes Swordhaven. Do not forget that.
Kara SuLema: Precisely.
Kara SuLema: May the winds guide you, <Character>. Good luck!
Queen of Swordhaven
Kara SuLema: ...Good. Thank you kindly for your report.
Kara SuLema: If we-
Kara SuLema: Ah, Niki! I've been waiting for you...
Kara SuLema: How is the situation with the Clawkin? Are they well protected?
Kara SuLema: Over Fury territory?
Kara SuLema: Niki... you should've come to me with this decision. Fury jungles are not safest places for the Clawkin.
Kara SuLema: Hmm... I cannot put aside Bacaju's wisdom lightly...
Kara SuLema: Very well then. I trust you both. You mentioned the new Freedom Camp?
Kara SuLema: That... is indeed a very good place for it. Mritha, please make sure that we have an ambassador in the camp.
Kara SuLema: I'm sure you must be exhausted Niki, please feel free to-
Kara SuLema: What is the matter, Svera?
Kara SuLema: Great Gales! Prepare the medical tent! This is of the highest priority!
Kara SuLema: ...
Kara SuLema: I... wouldn't ever have anticipated it going THIS way, though.
Kara SuLema: Svera, do we have any information about this Magesterium?
Kara SuLema: I will have to consult the wind...
Kara SuLema: Right now, we need to focus on more immediate matters.
Kara SuLema: Which are the King's health, well being, and his adjustment to these... new surroundings he will find once he wakes up.
Kara SuLema: Don't think I'm not grateful, <Character>... but it was very risky bringing the King here.
Kara SuLema: Please, do not think I am blaming anyone! It's absolutely fine.
Kara SuLema: What's done is done... there is no point on dwelling on it. Now, we must make sure the King is given all the care that he needs.
Kara SuLema: Svera, please bring Elanee here.
Jungle's Fury
Kara SuLema: The King is in stable condition for the time being... Elanee's magic works wonders, but it takes time.
Kara SuLema: ...
Kara SuLema: Other than what you told me, we know nothing about the Magesterium.
Kara SuLema: The sea breezes tell me that he is already long on his way to Azaveyr.
Kara SuLema: About that...
Kara SuLema: Perhaps you could journey to Azaveyr, <Character>? You are most likely not known there as well as here... you could be my scout.
Kara SuLema: Yes, although, please remember that your main goal should be to learn anything you can about the Magesterium.
Kara SuLema: If there is bad blood between them and Jaania, then strife between and the Rose as a whole will surely be imminent.
Kara SuLema: And although it could provide us with something we can exploit, it may degenerate into a conflict...
Kara SuLema: A conflict that may put the lives of everyone at risk.
Kara SuLema: We need to know where the Magesterium stand in all this.
Kara SuLema: Oh, <Character>.
Kara SuLema: Oh my! Gliding Snowflake, what are you doing here?
Kara SuLema: The Rose!?
Kara SuLema: It's not possible! Your jungle is hidden by Skin Of Stars' magic, and she's one of the most powerful Fury Shamans!
Kara SuLema: Oh no!
Kara SuLema: Oh no no no!
Kara SuLema: The Clawkin! The Rose must have followed the Clawkin!
Kara SuLema: <Character>!
Kara SuLema: It's alright, you can trust him/her.
Culture Shock
Kara SuLema: Your Majesty!
Kara SuLema: Svera, please inform Elanee that the King has woken up.
Kara SuLema: My name is Kara. I am a Wind Elf. You were gravely injured and brought here- to our camp.
Kara SuLema: My name is Kara. I am a Wind Elf. You were gravely injured and brought here- to our camp.
Kara SuLema: Please rest assured, you are in no danger! We mean you no harm.
Kara SuLema: I assure you, everything is fine. How are you feeling, your Majesty?
Kara SuLema: I know, my King. It's a lot to take in.
Kara SuLema: Resistance can be a burdened word.
Kara SuLema: I'd like to think we're simply the ones who walk on the right path, but then so thinks every creature that walks and breathes the wind.
Kara SuLema: No.
Kara SuLema: You Majesty! We fight for those who have the right to exist in this world!
Kara SuLema: We desire more than anything to live in a world where magical and non-magical beings all have the right to both live and prosper.
Kara SuLema: If Jaania's vision of a world without magic were to come to fruition...
Kara SuLema: All peace and harmony you see here between magical and non-magical, human and non-human would be lost.
Kara SuLema: Your Majesty, we honestly believe that what Jaania is doing is wrong.
Kara SuLema: Oh... A-as you wish.
Kara SuLema: Certainly.
Heroes
Kara SuLema: Your Majesty?
Kara SuLema: A-Alden...
Kara SuLema: How are you faring?
Kara SuLema: Your Ma- Alden, I don't believe that she manipulated you, she's just-
Kara SuLema: She is.
Kara SuLema: As is she.
Kara SuLema: It is as I've told you before. While I really do believe that what she is doing- what her organization is doing, is wrong... very wrong...
Kara SuLema: ... she is not a bad person, Alden. Just... broken.
Kara SuLema: She needs help. She needs to open her eyes to the suffering she has caused as a result of her obsession.
Kara SuLema: As a result of her own trauma, she believes that magic can only lead to destruction. And that only she can stop it. That only she can save the world.
Kara SuLema: But you've seen it now. You've heard our stories. You've felt the consequences of her actions.
Kara SuLema: This is not salvation.
Kara SuLema: My King! I... I didn't know you could...
A Petal Falls
Kara SuLema: Your news about the Magesterium disturbs me, <Character>.
Kara SuLema: This must mean their plans may involve hostility towards us, as well as the Rose, and also that it could be stopped, should you inform us of it.
Kara SuLema: Mritha, send out the scouts. Whatever the Magesterium is doing, it's likely going to be big.
Kara SuLema: We'll need eyes everywhere if we want to respond in time to whatever the Magesterium is planning.
Kara SuLema: Now, I hate to bring this up, but if whatever happens is part of the Magesterium's plan to deal with the Rose, maybe we shouldn't—
Kara SuLema: The dragonriders surely haven't returned so soon?
Kara SuLema: Is is the Rose again? Has their siege broken through?
Kara SuLema: Well, what is it?
Kara SuLema: And what of the Rose? Why would a Magus of the Rose come to us for aid?
Kara SuLema: Are they unable to protect their own?
Kara SuLema: I see.
Kara SuLema: Then this could very well be a trap.
Kara SuLema: Alden, what do you advise in this situation?
Kara SuLema: I understand.
Kara SuLema: We cannot afford to rush headlong into an unknown situation, however.
Kara SuLema: That sounds like the safest plan.
Kara SuLema: Alden, what will you do? You may remain here as long as you wish, but...
Kara SuLema: Very well. <Character>, go ahead and meet with this Magus Hansa. We must prepare to journey to Atrea.
Arrival of the Vind
Kara SuLema: It appears we arrived just in time. Please accept my apologies for the delay. The Rose is on high alert after the Duat incident.
Kara SuLema: So we've heard. What's the situation here? Who is in charge?
Kara SuLema: That is correct. It is a pleasure to meet you, Lady Alz'ein.
Kara SuLema: I am Kara SuLema. We— that is our resistance— have come to aid you however we may.
Kara SuLema: In these tumultuous times, we can all use all the allies we can find.
Kara SuLema: It was our pleasure. We hope to join the battle directly once we get situated.
Kara SuLema: You ask for much faith when we have only just met, but we will do our best to comply.
Kara SuLema: There is nothing to forgive. The fate of your people rests on the line.
Kara SuLema: We came here to be at your disposal.
Kara SuLema: I only ask that should we require your assistance in the future, against the Rose, the Magesterium, or otherwise...
Kara SuLema: ... that we may count on your help as well.
Kara SuLema: Then we are in agreement. Lead us, Lady Alz'ein.
Kara SuLema: It shall be done.
Kara SuLema: Understood.
Song in Our Hearts
Kara SuLema: <Character>, Mritha and the DragonLords are keeping the creature occupied, you should be able to get close!
Kara SuLema: Was that it? Is the—
Kara SuLema: I don't—
Kara SuLema: I hope everything is okay.
Kara SuLema: Thank you, Lady Alz'ein, Lady Isiri. The Vind greatly appreciates your promise.
Kara SuLema: Indeed. Come, <Character>.
Kara SuLema: When you have time, we must plan our next move against the Rose, and prepare for any more possible Magesterium attacks.
Out of Control
Kara SuLema: <Character>! Thank you for coming. I have a new assignment for you.
Kara SuLema: Unfortunately, yes. Our scouts report that another Magesterium rift has opened near Doomwood, a ways away from Amityvale.
Kara SuLema: I'm well aware of the direness of the situation, <Character>.
Kara SuLema: However, with our scouts scouring Greenguard, we've caught onto this much earlier than the Sandsea rift.
Kara SuLema: Your presence may help curtail any immediate threats.
Kara SuLema: It's possible that if we act quickly enough, we can slow down the enemy forces before they build up.
Kara SuLema: <Character>, if you can somehow secure an alliance with the Rose members there for the defense of Amityvale, we will join you shortly.
Kara SuLema: If not, I still believe that it is undeniable that your presence there will be of great value, should this escalate further.
Kara SuLema: Our scouts will continue to keep an eye out for any Magesterium or abnormal Rose activity, and we will keep you informed.
The Golden Hand
Kara SuLema: Our own scouts have been tracking the situation.
Kara SuLema: Unfortunately, we may need to reinforce the northern fronts, as they are the farthest from Swordhaven and Rose resources—
Kara SuLema: Mine is the same.
Kara SuLema: I'm going.
Kara SuLema: No. If Jaania is there, then I'll have the opportunity to talk to her. I'll have protection too, once we arrive.
Kara SuLema: My safety is not of concern.
Kara SuLema: <Character> and my bodyguard will accompany me.
Kara SuLema: Thank you for your concern, Neron. I will have to attend to them before we leave.
Kara SuLema: I apologize, <Character>, but it seems that once more you must travel alone. The Vind must have their orders before I can leave.
Kara SuLema: Don't worry. We shall be one step behind you.
Kara SuLema: The pleasure is all mine, Your Majesty.
Kara SuLema: Jaania has told you true. I am the leader of the Vind.
Kara SuLema: The Vind would like to be agreeable to this, but our people are still persecuted by the Rose.
Kara SuLema: As well as predjudices and assumptions.
Kara SuLema: While we cared for his wounds for some time, he has since recovered and left of his own accord.
Kara SuLema: He mentioned that he had some personal business to attend to. It was not my place to pry into the affairs of the king.
Kara SuLema: He was. He made it clear that he was proud of you and had full confidence in your abilities.
Kara SuLema: Perhaps we could try. It will not be easy.
Kara SuLema: Jaania, if I may have a word—
Kara SuLema: But—
Kara SuLema: Her research? What are you planning, Jaania?
Kara SuLema: Would these rifts remain closed, afterward?
Kara SuLema: Understood.
The Greenguard Alliance - Choose a Faction
Kara SuLema: <Character>, Queen Victoria has tasked the Vind with the defense of the front lines. It will be... difficult.
Learn More
Kara SuLema: The Vind and our allies will be the first line of defense against the rift elementals. It is a dangerous assignment.
Kara SuLema: The Atealans may still be recovering, but they have sent as many soldiers as they can spare to aid us as well.
Kara SuLema: We must hold off as many of the invaders as possible to give the Rose and the Golden Hand time. It is not an enviable task.
Kara SuLema: However, with your assistance, I am certain a lot of us would feel much more at ease.
Kara SuLema: ...
Kara SuLema: My apologies, <Character>, I... have a lot on my mind.
Kara SuLema: Please, consider lending us your strength.
The Greenguard Alliance - Vind Faction
Kara SuLema: Thank you for helping us, <Character>. With you at our side, we'll be able to stop the majority of the invading forces!
Swordhaven Camp
Kara SuLema: Hm?
Kara SuLema: Oh, sorry, <Character>, I didn't notice you there.
Kara SuLema: I've just been so worried about Jaania. I don't...
Kara SuLema: I...
Kara SuLema: I don't think I ever told you how the Vind came to be, have I?
Kara SuLema: No. You were simply thrust into the heart of our conflict against the Rose with little to no explanation as to who we were.
Kara SuLema: And for that I apologize.
Kara SuLema: That's heartening to hear, <Character>. While we have some time, would you care to listen to our story?
Kara SuLema: After you were frozen... Jaania was distraught.
Kara SuLema: She had been locked away, helpless, watching, but unable to act, for so long, and now that she was free, she was going to make a difference.
Kara SuLema: For a time, she traveled Greenguard, doing good deeds, trying to mend the damage done by countless generations of war.
Kara SuLema: But it was not enough.
Kara SuLema: Always, always there was more suffering, more pain for her to encounter.
Kara SuLema: Perhaps. But it seems that she was always wary of you.
Kara SuLema: It is undeniable that multiple Lore-changing events have revolved around you and <Dragon>.
Kara SuLema: Perhaps she thought that keeping you out of the way would have curtailed any malicious forces.
Kara SuLema: That's just my own guess. And to many, it made sense.
Kara SuLema: Here was Greenguard, recovering in a time of peace, and at the helm of this peace was Jaania.
Kara SuLema: But the peace was not to last.
Kara SuLema: My apologies, <Character>, but maybe we should continue this later. Swordhaven isn't going to defend itself, after all.
Kara SuLema: Another time, <Character>. Another time.
Daybreak (Vind)
Kara SuLema: ...
Kara SuLema: We have to find a way to stop this new threat, but our resources are lacking.
Kara SuLema: We must coordinate with The Rose.
Kara SuLema: Dear Alz'ein, unfortunately, many of the Vind are not so quick to accept the realities of our situation.
Kara SuLema: Most of the Vind have been personally slighted or worse by members of The Rose.
Kara SuLema: With the separation of duties in the protection of the city, we've managed to avoid much conflict.
Kara SuLema: But to take this new threat down will require working much more closely with The Rose.
Kara SuLema: But if Jaania is there—
Kara SuLema: Very well. I'll talk to our... our family. This is going to be difficult for them.
Kara SuLema: It must. I believe we can put aside our enmity, if only to save the world.
The Spells We Weave
Kara SuLema: From comparisons of physiology to creatures existing on Lore, we've determined that this Tytan is likely peaceful by nature.
Kara SuLema: A good point.
Kara SuLema: As such, if we are able to threaten it in such a way that brings it great discomfort–
Kara SuLema: That is our hope, yes, Your Majesty.
Kara SuLema: That is where <Character> comes in.
Kara SuLema: Don't worry, we have a solution for that!
Kara SuLema: We'll be able to develop a spell to protect <Character>!
Sunfall: Part 1
Kara SuLema: With the aid of The Rose, we've managed to secure an area outside Swordhaven.
Kara SuLema: The Dragonriders are ready and waiting.
Kara SuLema: ...
Kara SuLema: ...
Kara SuLema: Oh! My apologies.
Kara SuLema: Yes. With the sample provided by <Character>, we have the spell ready to cast.
Kara SuLema: You and <Dragon> will be prepared and protected before you head off.
- Catapult
Kara SuLema: That should do it.
- Dragon (DA Required)
Kara SuLema: That should cover both of you.

From Eukara Vox;quote:
Sielu was one of Kara's mentors as a child, so he is at least old enough to be her father, if not grandfather. She is young, especially for one who leads a great gathering like the Vind. Now, about how old is she? You never ask a lady how old she is.
