Dialogue
Alteon joins you as Guest A.
Amadeus joins you as Guest B.
*You and your allies—consisting of the Golden Hand, Alteon, and Amadeus—are in a land affected by the Fissure in search for Outpost Yeden.*
Amadeus: So.
Amadeus: Which way to your encampment?
Ostromir: It is um... It is...
<Character>: Didn't you say we were nearby?
Ostromir: I have never been to the Outpost, personally, but I have heard tales, and read the reports!
Ostromir: We are certainly in the correct region, at least.
<Character>: You're telling me we're lost?!
Ostromir: Not lost, exactly. Just... in need of direction!
Amadeus: Then let's not stand around.
Alteon: I must agree. These surroundings make me... uncomfortable.
Vseslava: Then we should proceed with caution. We know nothing of the current situation.
<Character>: Right. Let's find that Outpost!
*You fight through various monsters in search of the aforementioned Outpost; along the way, however, you and your allies are surrounded by the Magesterium's forces.*
<Character>: Well, we definitely got someone's attention.
<Character>: Hello? Whoever is out there? We're looking for Outpost Yeden! We seem to have gotten a bit... lost.
???: Hmm... Lost, you say?
*A blonde-haired female Magester—dressed with similar features to Ostromir and Vseslava's uniforms—appears to you and your allies.*
Striking Magester: Our drones spotted intruders, and several golems have stopped responding. What do we have here?
*As you and your allies are still surrounded, the Golden Hand greets the Magester.*
Vseslava: Thank the Shapeless! I am Vseslava, and this is Ostromir. We are both of Golden Hand Div—
Striking Magester: Division Osiem, yes. The two of you are expected.
Striking Magester: Your guests however...
*The Magester examines the Golden Hand's guests—you, Alteon, and Amadeus.*
Striking Magester: Hm. <Character>, a registered Hero... with a pardoned history?
Striking Magester: How unusual.
Striking Magester: ...And the King of Greenguard, as well?
Striking Magester: Hm.
Striking Magester: Your last associate, however, is something of an enigma to my data.
Striking Magester: There appears to be some obfuscation...
Striking Magester: You. Remove your illusions. The Shapeless demands it!
*Amadeus glares at the Magester as he refuses to remove all of his illusions.*
Amadeus: No.
<Character>: Amadeus...
Amadeus: I do not obey you or your "Shapeless".
Ostromir: Magester, he means no offense. We have had a long journey, and—
Striking Magester: Aha. No, it is quite alright, Ostromir.
Striking Magester: "Amadeus", you are called?
Amadeus: ...
Striking Magester: What to do... what to do...?
Vseslava: If I may, I do not believe we have gotten your name, Magester?
Striking Magester: Forgive my manners! I was simply so excited to see who was interrupting the patrols with such enthusiasm!
Zvezdana: I am Zvezdana. Magester of the Shapeless Empire.
Zvezdana: Division Osiem has been requested to join the efforts at Outpost Yeden, but I do not believe you were permitted to bring...
Zvezdana: ...Followers.
Vseslava: They may not have been approved...
Vseslava: ...but as natives of Greenguard, we believe they will be instrumental resources in the conflict against The Rose.
Zvezdana: Do you, now?
*Zvezdana assesses the Golden Hand's motivations before allowing them and their allies to come along to Outpost Yeden.*
Zvezdana: Oh, very well. Do come along now.
Zvezdana: And no more misbehaving and destruction of property, yes?
*Zvezdana glares at you and your allies.*
Zvezdana: Outpost Yeden is just up ahead!
Alteon: What have we gotten ourselves into...?
Amadeus: ...
<Character>: Ostromir, are you sure this is a good idea?
Ostromir: They are the only ones who can help us.
Ostromir: The Magesters are not that bad once you get to know them! They are just... slow to trust outsiders.
Vseslava: Watch your steps, and watch your words.
*Scene fades to black.*

Other information
Pop-up headlines during the quest:
quote:
Ostromir: "Such magnificent flora! And... what is that up ahead?!"
Ostromir: "Ah! Those are Magesterium drones! They are sure to have spotted us!"
Vseslava: "Let us follow those drones. Wherever they are heading, we will find Magesters."
Alteon: "These creatures are familiar, but different. Did the Fissure affect them, perhaps?"
Ostromir: "It is possible. It is also possible that across generations, they have adapted to the high-Mana environment."
Vseslava: "I believe the latter more likely. Still, let us know if any of you feel ill or uneasy."
Amadeus: "More Magesterium technology. And it's in our way."
Ostromir: "Now, hold on a moment! That is property of the Magesterium! We should... Oh, forget it."
Alteon: "I recognize that type of golem. Let's see how it fares when I don't have my back turned!"
Vseslava: "Wait! We can just—"
Ostromir: "It is a perimeter security party, and we are not their targets. We should be able to avoid them."
Alteon: "...I still don't like them."
Ostromir: "Perhaps we could bring it with us for research purposes? No? Okay."
Ostromir: "That is the Pathfinder model up ahead! Usually sent into unclaimed territory, it excels at clearing brush and—"
Amadeus: "And it doesn't seem to want to let us pass."
Vseslava: "...Well, let us hope the controlling Magester is of a reasonable demeanor..."
