== Dialogue ==
Dez Kanshaw: What say you, should I have another? Ilmater preserve me, I need the courage.
* 
** Dez Kanshaw: No, saer. We abandoned our farm when the Absolute army marched in.
** Dez Kanshaw: We used to sell our barley to the brewer who makes this very beer. That's all over now.
** 
*** Dez Kanshaw: Why? No more point to that than getting mad at a plague of locusts, or the weather.
*** 
**** Dez Kanshaw: We're farmers, not fighters. That's not the answer for us.
**** Dez Kanshaw: Oldest boy, Korson, he means well but he eats as much as the rest of us put together. I have to find him a place here.

*** Dez Kanshaw: I'm not so sure. What good can these farmer hands do in a city like this? Besides, I've got the other's to think of.
*** Dez Kanshaw: Family's upstairs, exhausted. I'm Dez Kanshaw - with a wife, two kids, and another on the way.

** Dez Kanshaw: No, I guess I've had enough. The brewer who made this beer used to buy all of our barley. But that's over now.
** Dez Kanshaw: Left the crops standing in the fields when we ran from the Absolute army. Gone, all gone.

** Dez Kanshaw: We're farmers, not fighters. That's not the answer for us.
** Dez Kanshaw: Korson's strong, but he's a gentle soul. Easy to take advantage of.

* Party member: 
** Dez Kanshaw: I appreciate that some might find me a soft touch, but he's my son. I'll make no apology for looking out for him.
** Dez Kanshaw: Korson's stron, but he's a gentle soul. Easy to take advantage of.
** 
* 
** Dez Kanshaw: Thank you kindly. And to you and yours.
** 
* Dez Kanshaw: A fancy feller called Three-Piece wants to place him as a cleaner in the Counting House. But I don't trust him.
* Dez Kanshaw: Maybe I should just join the Flaming Fist and take the signing bonus. What else can I do?
* 
** Dez Kanshaw: That's what I was thinking too. Was drinking to get up the courage to do it.
** Dez Kanshaw: But it's hard, because it means goodbye to our family farm. Korson will never work those fields.
** 
* 
** Dez Kanshaw: Right. It's taking a chance, but it's worth the risk. The farm is all we have, really.
** 
* 
** Dez Kanshaw: Huh. That's a solid tip. Could work out for a gentle kid like Korson.
* Party member: 
** Dez Kanshaw: Huh - that's true. And we're no strangers to working the land.
** 
* Party member: 
** Dez Kanshaw: My gentle boy? A thief? I wouldn't have dared think of it before, but... maybe the Guild isn't a bad place to look.
** 
* Dez Kanshaw: Thanks, stranger, you helped settle my mind. Thanks are all I have to offer, though. May Illmater bleed for you.
* 
* 
** Dez Kanshaw: Thanks again, stranger. Illmater guide you.
