Dialogue
In Search of Slayers
Hopeful Voice: Can it be? Galanoth?
Hopeful Voice: But if it's Galanoth then we could be saved...
Hopeful Voice: ...
Hopeful Soldier: Is it... Is it safe?
Hopeful Soldier: Well, after the eruption, we did what we could to get people to safety.
Hopeful Soldier: But we're... well, Dragonslayers. Not Mushroomslayers.
Hopeful Soldier: We did our best, but more and more of the Hollow creatures kept coming...
Hopeful Soldier: The uh, things you fought and saw all over the city. They're not people. They're... well, hollow.
Hopeful Soldier: As far as we can tell, the fungus just kind of... produces them. Not sure from where.
Hopeful Soldier: They're so... weird. Sometimes we'll watch them almost... almost be human.
Hopeful Soldier: They'll aimlessly go in and out of buildings, or what remains of them.
Hopeful Soldier: But they don't do anything until they come across something living.
Hopeful Soldier: Er, not Hollow, I mean.
Hopeful Soldier: If it's the spores, they haven't had any effect on us, I don't think. There are definitely other people out there, too.
Hopeful Soldier: We've tried to help, we really have... but it's an extremely hostile environment.
Kord: Oh! I'm sorry, my name is Kord.
Kord: And you all are...?
Kord: I see. So you're here to reclaim Dragesvard, and hopefully stop the spread of the fungus.
Kord: But if refugees have already made it to the mainland then... surely the spores... It's only a matter of time before it starts there...
Kord: That's... We have to do all we can. The destruction here cannot be allowed to visit the main continent.
Kord: Of course! Of course. We Dragonslayers will always rise to the occasion, just as Galanoth has!
Kord: And now that reinforcements have arrived, I'm sure we'll be able to manage.
Roots of Change
Kord: A lot to ask?!
Kord: Do you have any idea of the nightmare we've been through trying to protect the townspeople?
Kord: Oh no. Hold on to something, everyone!
Kord: The fungus, it's-
Kord: Kord, sir.
Kord: Um. It's hard to say. It's the first time I've seen one in person. A lot of the time, they come through inside buildings or other dark places.
Kord: Not near any of the new growth. But maybe near the main stalk? But that's sure to be the most dangerous part of the city.
Through the Tangle
Kord: Well, we certainly can't stay here!
Kord: Another spike, incoming!
Kord: We have to keep moving!
Kord: What should we do about the dragons? They're not going to fit in that gap.
Kord: Galanoth, wait.
Kord: I... We appreciate that you returned and came to our rescue. We're thankful beyond words for that, Galanoth.
Kord: But after all this... What's next for the Dragonslayers?
Kord: Are you just going to go back to being some dragon's pet? I understand the want to prevent them from being wiped out, but...
Kord: They're proud. They're strong, and ungrateful. Even the DragonLords wouldn't do anything until you convinced them.
Kord: After all this is done... Will we remain slayers? Or will we merely be subservient protectors?
Kord: As you command, Galanoth.
Kord: It's all fungus. How can you tell?
The Deep Dark
Kord: ...
Kord: Yeah.
Kord: ...You've known Galanoth longer than most of us.
Kord: ...
Kord: Don't you think he's been acting... differently than usual?
Kord: Ever since he left us and started... speaking for that dragon...
Kord: ...
Kord: For a lot of us Dragonslayers, Galanoth gave us purpose and direction.
Kord: Slay dragons. Protect the innocent.
Kord: ...But now we've been "working" with the DragonLords and the dragons.
Kord: And then... Galanoth left us for one. Abandoned us to this fungal fate.
Kord: And yet he expected us to. We've been here giving our lives to save the people of Dragesvard.
Kord: My friends! My brothers and sisters in arms, lost. And Galanoth was nowhere to be found until...
Kord: The DragonLords and their dragons show up and all they manage to do is make things worse.
Kord: Maybe he has a point. Maybe we should keep to our own.
Kord: ...
Kord: We could do this without the dragons.
Kord: Its minions are certainly unresponsive to words.
Into the Abyss
Kord: Well, what now?
Kord: What, that's it?
Kord: What will even happen if we destroy it, if we can even reach it?
Kord: How do you know that? Destroying the other nodes just served to wake it up!
Kord: How are we even going to get out of here?!
Kord: ...
Kord: I... see.
Fate's Flow (Part 1)
If you joined the Rose faction:
Kord: Grow a spine, DragonLord.
Kord: Right. Fate of Greenguard and all that. But it doesn't mean I have to like it. Sorry, sir.
Kord: Does that usually work for you? Didn't seem to stop DragonLords defecting to the Vind.
Kord: ...
Kord: Yes, sir.
If you joined the Golden Hand faction:
Kord: What? You mean, even if we somehow take down this Tytan, and again, somehow escape with our lives—
Kord: —even then, you don't have a way to close the rift?
Kord: What's to stop another Tytan coming through? What if more already have?!
Kord: As you say, sir.
Kord: So much for faith.
Kord: Sure.
If you joined the Vind faction:
Kord: As long as you don't ask the Dragonslayers for help—
Kord: Sir—
Kord: ...
Kord: I don't understand how you can be so optimistic.
Kord: We're deep in the darkness of a Tytan, unsure if we can even take it down, and you're already looking to the future.
Kord: ...If you say so.
Kord: We did it?
Kord: We did it!
Kord: So what do we do now, "hero"?
Kord: ...Brilliant.
Kord: You don't know that. You don't!
Kord: Galanoth?
Fate's Flow (Part 2)
Kord: ...Yes, sir.
Kord: A... dead end? I thought you said this was the way out!
Kord: Then tell the dragons to come and free us!
Kord: We have to try something!
Kord: Well, <Character>? Any more heroic ideas?
Kord: That's all well and good, but how are we getting out of here? That... is a long drop.
Kord: Are you insane?!
Kord: I... I can't do it...
Kord: ...
Kord (briefly): What—?
Kord (briefly): AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
Kord (briefly): OOF!
Kord: ...
Kord: ...Thanks.
Twin Tides
Kord: We did it! We made it! The fresh air! Safety at last!
Kord: You... you can't make me go back there. I can't.
Kord: I won't!
Kord: I knew it. You want to go back to the Tytan!
Awakened Depths: Epilogue (All Versions)
Kord: ...
Kord: ...
Kord: Dragesvard's saved. The Tytan's defeated.
Kord: According to Galanoth, the Rift's closed.
Kord: Looks like the Greenguard Alliance is working out fairly well too, so The Rose probably won't be bothering the dragons anytime soon.
Kord: ...What happens now?
Kord: I think a lot of us just want to get back to hunting dragons.
Kord: They've done a lot of harm over the years. To a lot of people. To a lot of us. We can't just suppress that anger.
Kord: We need revenge.
Kord: The ones here are... fine. Tame enough. But outside the mountain...
Kord: What?
Kord: Not everyone's going to like it.
Kord: ...
Kord: It... It could be worth a try.
Kord: A little bit of fungus won't keep the people of Dragesvard down!
