==Dialogue==
"Once we defeat the Imperials, we can start rebuilding Cheydinhal. We must re-take this town!"
:Why are you fighting? "For domination! This is a battle for control of Cheydinhal, winner take all. The Empire collapsed and their troops went rogue. They thought they owned this town, but we've shown them. We're going to win this war, no matter what it takes!"
::What sparked the fighting? "I did! I could take the degradation no longer and rallied the town to my banner. Latecomers like Vyctoria have tried to steal some of my glory, but this is my rebellion. I will lead us to victory!"
Show: Stacking the Odds
In Cheydinhal:
"Once we defeat the Imperials, we can start rebuilding Cheydinhal. We must re-take this town!"
:How do you plan to win? "Information is key. We have a spy across the river, in Imperial territory. We need to give him new orders. Will you deliver this note to him?"
::I'll do it.
After delivering the orders:
"Did you find him and deliver my orders?"
:I did. But he left me to die over there. "Of course. He couldn't risk being captured. You lived to tell the tale. I hear gold heals all wounds."
Show: A Debt Come Due
In Cheydinhal:
"Once we defeat the Imperials, we can start rebuilding Cheydinhal. We must re-take this town!"
:The Imperials are well-trained. "Indeed. Imperial lieutenants serve as masters-at-arms, keeping the army always ready for battle. Eliminating a lieutenant would damage enemy morale and make our task much easier. Can you do it?"
::I accept the challenge.
After killing the lieutenant:
"Seems to be no end to this conflict. Cutting the head off the snake would help our cause tremendously."
:One head has been removed. "Good. I hope you can take advantage of the confusion you've caused. But we must act soon, as they will quickly promote a new lieutenant from the ranks."
Show: For Piety's Sake
In Cheydinhal:
"Once we defeat the Imperials, we can start rebuilding Cheydinhal. We must re-take this town!"
:How can I help? "The troops like to know the gods are on their side. I am not a pious man, but I understand the need for reassurance. There is a small shrine to the west. Would you deliver the troops' petitions to the gods?"
::Sure.
After delivering the petitions:
"There's no one so superstitious as a soldier on the eve of battle."
:I delivered the petitions, despite an Imperial ambush. "I will tell the troops; morale will improve greatly. Sometimes I feel more like a nursemaid than a troop commander. Thank you."
Show: Bloodied Waters
In Cheydinhal:
"Once we defeat the Imperials, we can start rebuilding Cheydinhal. We must re-take this town!"
:Anything I can do to help? "Imperial archers posted on the river banks have made crossing impossible. If our troops can get across, we might be able to push back the Imperials. We need those archers eliminated!"
::You want me to take them out? "I want someone to take them out, I don't care who does it or how. But whoever does it will be well rewarded."
:::I'll do it.
After killing the archers:
"Yes? Is it done?"
:The archers should be less of a problem now. "Good. Seeing Imperials floating downstream brightens my day. The reward is yours."
Show: Keepsake
In Cheydinhal:
"Once we defeat the Imperials, we can start rebuilding Cheydinhal. We must re-take this town!"
:Any tasks for me? "I would sacrifice much to free Cheydinhal, but there is something I hope not to lose. Hidden in the cathedral across the river, I left an ancient strongbox. Inside is a treasured heirloom of my family. Retrieve it for me and I will reward you."
::I'll look for your heirloom.
After finding the heirloom:
"Having that heirloom back will lift my spirits more than a cartful of dead Imperials."
:I found it. "I'm amazed the Imperials hadn't stolen it already. I suspect they left it in the hopes of trapping me if I came to get it. You foiled that plan. Well done."
