Flit: What are you gonna do with her, Boss?
Luzaf: ...
Flit: His Maleficence awaits. 
Off with the girl, and let's get on with the ceremony in Hazhalm.
Ovjang: We are done, Admiral!
Flit: Tired of cleaning already? 
That's what you get for sending a snob to do a swab's job...
Aphmau: You do us a disservice, Master Flit. 
The deck is swept and scrubbed!
Ovjang: Aphmau was only supervising, though...
Aphmau: Ovjang! Shhh!
Flit: Well, then. For your next chore...
Luzaf: Enough, Flit!
Luzaf: I must speak with our guests in private.
Ovjang: Oho! 
The Admiral desires our exclusive company!
Flit: B-but, we weren't done talk--
Luzaf: Flit. 
Do not make me repeat myself.
Flit: Aye aye, Cap'n. 
You're the boss.
Aphmau: How...how are you feeling?
Luzaf: Much recovered.
Luzaf: I was told you stayed at my bedside throughout the night.
Luzaf: I am grateful.
Aphmau: It was nothing...
Aphmau: But now...now that you know...
Luzaf: That you are the Empress?
Aphmau: Yes.
Luzaf: In the past, you would already lie slain at my feet.
Aphmau: !!!
Luzaf: Do not be concerned.
Luzaf: Such a petty act of vengeance no longer stirs my heart.
Aphmau: Luzaf...
Luzaf: I was once the Crown Prince of Ephramad.
Luzaf: My kingdom was destroyed by the Empire of Aht Urhgan while I studied in distant lands...
Luzaf: I would not yield to the Imperial conquerors, and forged the remnants of the Ephramadian navy into a rebel force--the corsairs.
Luzaf: Our battles with the Empire raged day after day...
Luzaf: And then during the course of a single night, the entire corsair fleet was annihilated at the hands of Lamiae as the ships slept in port--Lamiae under the control of the Imperial Army.
Luzaf: The Black Coffin--the only ship to escape the slaughter--was ambushed by Imperial war galleys and sent to the ocean floor...
Luzaf: That is the story of my death...
Aphmau: Then you really are...dead? A ghost?
Luzaf: A ghost... 
I suppose that I am.
Aphmau: But, you appear as a living being. Solid to the touch...
Luzaf: I don't think you could call this existence "living".
Aphmau: What do you mean?
Luzaf: Even now, I am irrevocably chained to the underworld.
Aphmau: Does this have something to do with that shadow in Periqia?
Luzaf: The shadow? 
Yes, that form will be my fate. As ordained by Odin, my immortal lord...
Aphmau: The form of the Dark Rider...?
Luzaf: You miss little, I see.
Luzaf: As the violent throes of the battered Black Coffin threw me over the side and I sank into the dark, cold waters of oblivion, I made a plea to the dark god...
Luzaf: "Great Odin, guardian of the Kingdom of Ephramad, I beseech thee...
Luzaf: "If it is but one swing of my blade, grant me the chance for revenge."
Luzaf: It was then that Odin appeared before me.
Aphmau: !!!
Luzaf: He spoke to me thus: 
"When the Age of Judgement draws near, I shall grant thy wish...
Luzaf: "But once thy revenge is complete, thou shalt destroy mine enemy...Alexander."
Aphmau: Alexander...
Aphmau: The legendary savior who will be reborn in the body of the iron giant in the hour of the Empire's greatest need...
Luzaf: I am aware of the legend. 
It is the reason I forged this pact--the chance for revenge against the Empire. The desire consumed my very being...
Luzaf: The next time I awoke, I found myself upon the deck of the Black Coffin, afloat at sea.
Luzaf: It was if I had merely slept, albeit for long years...
Aphmau: Two hundred years...isn't that right?
Luzaf: Yes.
Luzaf: To prepare for my war against the Empire, I joined forces with the beastmen.
Luzaf: I then searched for the automatons--the keys to manipulating the iron giant.
Luzaf: But I eventually realized, or should I say, was made to realize:
Luzaf: My seething wrath was for the emperor that destroyed my kingdom...
Luzaf: ...and the empire he ruled during my living years.
Luzaf: That empire no longer exists. And you, Aphmau, are not the one against whom I seek revenge.
Luzaf: Am I not pitiful? A vengeful shade that has lost his taste for vengeance...
Mnejing: You are pitiful...
Luzaf: What!?
Aphmau: You still have the chance to rebuild the Kingdom of Ephramad!
Luzaf: But I...
Aphmau: I learned a lot living in the temple.
Aphmau: The descendants of Ephramad still yearn for the age when their kingdom yet flourished...
Aphmau: There are those who still fight for such a reality.
Aphmau: You can help them find the path to the kingdom of their dreams.
Luzaf: The people of Ephramad...survived...
Luzaf: But this path you speak of, will it not lead to conflict and bloodshed with the Empire, plunging all once again into the flames of war?
Ovjang: Admiral. Prince Luzaf. Have you forgotten with whom you speak?
Luzaf: !
Aphmau: Leave the empire to us!
Luzaf: Heh.
Luzaf: Hahahah. You are right. 
And I am still a corsair. 
I will take a gamble on this fool's venture.
Aphmau: That's the spirit! 
You must undo this pact with Odin as soon as possible...
Luzaf: Yes...I must seek audience with my dark lord.
Flit: Please, Boss. The tears won't stop.
Luzaf: Flit...
Flit: Giving up on the revenge business is your call.
Flit: But your crew has been restored, and your ship raised from the ocean floor.
Flit: The pact must be honored.
Flit: Your path lies in one direction only:
Flit: To Hazhalm, and an existence as the new Dark Rider, incarnation of the Great Odin.
Flit: If you renege on the deal, you know what awaits you and your crew, right?
Luzaf: ...
Aphmau: Hazhalm? What is he talking about?
Flit: Hee hee, hee hee.
Flit: What a tragedy. A real shame, it is. 
The poor little Empress floundering in the dark.
Flit: You spent so much energy playing the part of a puppetmaster, you never noticed the Grand Vizier pulling your strings.
Aphmau: How dare you!
Luzaf: Enough, Flit.
Flit: Went a little bit far there, didn't I? 
How about I make it up by teaching you about Hazhalm?
Flit: It was the site for alchemical experiments that pushed the limits of reason.
Flit: The reckless fools eventually ripped the very fabric of reality, and opened a door into Odin's domain--without even knocking, I might add.
Flit: Of course, we've been using that tear as a shortcut into this world.
Flit: Hee hee, hee hee!
Luzaf: You have made your point. 
Let us proceed to Hazhalm.
Flit: Yes! Proceed! 
No other choice, really.
Ovjang: Are you serious about this, Admiral?
Luzaf: I will present myself before Odin, and nullify the pact.
Flit: Yes! Nullify! 
No other choi...
Flit: Hold on, hold on! 
What's this talk about nullifying!?
Aphmau: Are you sure, Luzaf?
Luzaf: I am sure. 
Fate's grip is strong, but we are the masters of our own destiny.
Luzaf: You taught me that.
Aphmau: Me?
Luzaf: When I look at you...
Luzaf: ...I feel as I did in my younger days. 
I remember what it is to hope.
Luzaf: There were so many things I didn't know back then, so many things I wanted to learn.
Luzaf: Aphmau. 
You are searching for a way to save your Empire...
Luzaf: A way to save your citizens from despair and misery.
Luzaf: To do that you seek to uncover the truth behind the world in which you live.
Aphmau: I do...but...
Luzaf: Aphmau... 
Nashmeira.
Aphmau: !?
Luzaf: You must come with me! 
Come to Hazhalm!
Luzaf: Then you shall behold the truth with your own eyes.
Aphmau: I...I will go with you.
Flit: (Hee hee, hee hee.)
Flit: (There are some things in this world better left unknown...)
Salabwahn: Admiral.
Luzaf: What is it?
Salabwahn: The ship appears to have picked up another rat...
Aphmau: Player name!
Salabwahn: You know this intruder?
Aphmau: That man/woman is my private mercenary! 
Please stay your blades!
Aphmau: But, why...?
Aphmau: Why are you here?
:Why did you board the Black Coffin?
:To find you. <----- Chose this option!
:To find Luzaf.
Aphmau: Oh, Player name. 
You really are my mercenary!
:Why did you board the Black Coffin?
:To find you.
:To find Luzaf. <----- Chose this option!
Salabwahn: To what end??
Aphmau: Oh, Player name... 
You shouldn't jest.
Luzaf: Your linkpearl should have been confiscated... 
Did you call this mercenary?
Aphmau: Huh? Uh...right, yes. 
I called him/her in to act as my bodyguard!
Aphmau: Isn't that right, Mnejing?
Mnejing: R-right. 
The old message-in-a-bottle trick...
Flit: (Where do all these meddlers come from...?)
Salabwahn: You expect me to swallow that story?
Flit: Ahem! 
But this works out perfectly, Boss.
Flit: You need help if you mean to rebuild your kingdom.
Flit: The Ephramadian treasure you "recovered" from the Empire is still stashed in Talacca Cove.
Flit: And there have been all those Immortals sniffing about lately...
Luzaf: Immortals?
Luzaf: It matters not--the treasure is veiled by a powerful spell of concealment.
Luzaf: The only way to pierce the illusion is with a percipient eye. 
And you and I possess the only two in existence.
Flit: Right, right, it's a great spell. Fantastic. 
But who knows what those Immortals are capable of?
Flit: There's no guarantee they haven't sucked up some crazy sensory ability from some hapless creature.
Flit: That's why we need Player name.
Flit: And Talacca Cove just happens to be on the way to Hazhalm.
Flit: If you give your percipient eye to Player name, he/she can work security on the treasure.
Flit: This is Aphmau's loyal mercenary we're talking about here.
Flit: We can trust him/her not to swipe the goods, and to lead those blue devils off the scent if they get too close.
Aphmau: But I need Player name by my side...
Flit: Well, I can't argue with that.
Flit: If he/she stays on the ship, we'll just have to submit him/her to a thorough investigation. Just to be on the safe side, you understand.
Flit: Wouldn't you agree, First Mate Salabwahn?
Aphmau: I...uh...
Aphmau: (Just play along!)
Aphmau: Why, yes! 
We have the utmost faith in Player name.
Aphmau: He/She is the perfect choice to keep your precious treasure safe and sound.
Luzaf: Very well. 
I shall abide by your judgment.
Luzaf: Take this, Player name.
Luzaf: Keep watch over the treasure until we return to Talacca Cove.
Luzaf: But if you sense you are needed, be ready to fly to our side with all haste.
