[/message] [message] speaker=Prince Haldric message= _ "We’re going to convince Jevyan that we gave the elves the Ruby of Fire to secure our place in this new land. Then if the orcs return, hopefully they’ll go looking for our not-so-loyal elven allies first." [/message] [message] speaker=Lady Jessene message= _ "Haldric, that’s devious. I kind of like this plan. But you spoke a pact with the elves. You’ll be expected to come to their aid." [/message] [message] speaker=Prince Haldric message= _ "Yes, and we may come to their aid. We’ll have to weigh our options when and if the time comes. If the orcs return in great numbers, the brunt of their assault must fall on somebody else or we will not survive it. Who knows, maybe I won’t even come to their aid at all—" [/message] [message] speaker=Lady Jessene message= _ "Many people would call you a coward if you did not. They would say that you turned your back on your pact with the elves. It’s not like you can tell people what I overheard."

Besides, they won’t be screaming at me — I’ll be dead." image=portraits/haldric-annoyed.png [/message] [message] speaker=Lady Jessene message= _ "What?!" [/message] [message] speaker=Prince Haldric message= _ "I’ll be dead. I mean we can’t just say that we gave away the Ruby of Fire, or send Jevyan a letter. Well, we are going to say it — but that’s not the point. Jessene, you’re going to forge a very official looking treaty, in which we give the elves the Ruby of Fire, in return for our place here." [/message] [message] speaker=Prince Haldric message= _ "I’m going to face Jevyan, and if rumors of his power are true he’s going to pick that treaty off my mangled corpse. Then, you’re going to destroy Jevyan after word of the treaty has spread to the orcs, but before he has a chance to read my undead mind..." [/message] [message] speaker=Lady Jessene message= _ "Haldric! I won’t do it... I won’t help. What is it with your kind, always rushing to a fool’s death? Who’ll lead these people? I... we need you alive" [/message] [message] speaker=Prince Haldric message= _ "You will. I wouldn’t have made it this far without you, Jessene. But everything turns on convincing Jevyan, it’s the only way we can possibly keep the orc hordes off our necks." [/message] [message] speaker=Lady Jessene message= _ "Haldric, this is ridiculous!

I want to look that monster Jevyan in the eye before I go! I won’t be denied!" [/message] [message] speaker=Prince Haldric message= _ "Very well, if you can’t be deterred. Remember, you must be slain by the hand of Jevyan himself. We can’t have an illiterate orc or mindless skeleton getting the treaty. We will honor your sacrifice." [/message] [message] speaker=Commander Aethyr message= _ "Honor me by destroying Jevyan! Preferably before he can do unnatural things to me.
