## Event Dialogue

### Chapter 1

* Tree
* Viking
* Rat
* Silent Keeper
* Erik the Grey
Tree

**Tree:** I know what you've done. You once told me that you'd do everything in your power to protect my forest realm... But you didn't keep your word.

**Lord Protector:** What happened?

**Tree:** Don't pretend that you don't know! The sacred grove is in danger of being destroyed because of you!

...

**Lord Protector:** I don't know what you mean, my friend. But if you stop blaming me and explain something, I promise I'll figure it out.Viking

**Viking:** You offered to make me the Watch commander and then turned to my brother?

**Viking:** I saw your letter to my evil brother saying you made the wrong choice and calling me a coward!

**Lord Protector:** What letter? As for your brother, look, I can explain...

**Viking:** Enough. I don't believe a word you say. You no longer control the Watch.Rat

**Rat:** My master... Is something wrong?

**Lord Protector:** Plenty of things are wrong, rat.

**Rat:** What do you mean, my master?

**Lord Protector:** Someone's spreading lies about me... The letters you lost caused me a ton of problems!

**Rat:** I'll try to find them and fix it.

**Lord Protector:** You better! You don't want to feel my wrath.Silent Keeper

**Silent Keeper:** And you dare to call yourself Lord Protector of Pangea? Wait till the world finds out about your dishonesty!

**Lord Protector:** I've been accused of every mortal sin since this morning. Can you tell me what's going on?

**Silent Keeper:** Loggers began cutting down trees in the Enchanted Forest. When I questioned them, they all pointed to your collusion with the prince of Meilitae!

**Lord Protector:** Curiously. And the prince accused me of breaking our contract.

**Silent Keeper:** You don't even deny it. I appreciate your help in the past but I won't let anyone break the balance!

...

**Lord Protector:** I didn't want to fight you but I have other problems beside the sacred grove.Eric the Grey

**Lord Protector:** Erik, look, I did write to your brother...

**Erik the Grey:** I don't want to hear your excuses. I won't let anyone call me a coward!

**Erik the Grey:** It's difficult to gain my respect, Lord Protector. It's so easy to lose it with one stroke of a pen.

**Lord Protector:** If I need to fight you to make you listen, then you leave me no choice!

...

**Erik the Grey:** The Watch has already abandoned its posts, and your victory means nothing.

**Lord Protector:** Someone is spreading lies about me, and my enemies are taking advantage of it.

**Erik the Grey:** Maybe people plot against you for a reason, and the truth about you might be surprising.
### Chapter 2

* Blockhead
* Smart Log
* Merciless
* Traitor
* Groot
Blockhead

**Lord Protector:** Did you find out who stole my mail?

**Blockhead:** No... But there came a letter from the thief.

**Blockhead:** He says that he will send out fake letters every hour so that all the allies will turn against you.

**Lord Protector:** I'm not happy with you! Find this egghead right now, or I'll kick your rat ass!Smart Log

**Lord Protector:** Okay, I'm sick of you and your lectures. If you wanna kill me, come on, give it a try! But I didn't order the logging.

**Smart Log:** Stop trying to fool me. Everything forest dwellers are talking about is evil deeds.Merciless

**Lord Protector:** Enemies threaten our borders - you have to come back!

**Merciless:** You bring danger to your domain yourself. We will return when Pangea has a worthy ruler.Traitor

**Lord Protector:** So... Took me long enough to blow your cover.

**Traitor:** I'm not going to be your errand boy anymore. Soon Pangea will belong to us!

**Lord Protector:** You are not the first one to tell me that. You won't be the last.

**Traitor:** Oh, you underestimate my kind, human.Groot

**Lord Protector:** Prince and I agreed that he would use my loggers for sanitary logging. Ever heard of one?

**Groot:** No. Trees are living organisms that regulate their own life cycle!

**Lord Protector:** Sure, some of the old stumps should have rested in peace long ago... They won't wizen, though.
### Chapter 3

* Watchman
* Kendrig
* Guardian
* Commander
* Rat King
Watchman

**Watchman:** I've said it all the last time we met!

**Lord Protector:** Before you hear more lies about me, I wrote to your brother when I did background checks on you.

**Lord Protector:** Standard procedure when hiring a new employee. I certainly didn't ask for his help or call you a coward.Kendrig

**Kendrig:** You are so pathetic, Lord Protector. Trying to prevent the inevitable.

**Lord Protector:** Maybe I am pathetic, Kendrig.

**Lord Protector:** But it's you who's gonna be dead by the sunset.

...

**Lord Protector:** I already have experience with rats, I think I can handle this.

**Kendrig:** I declare myself the king of the Rat Republic, and next time I'll have an army behind my back!Guardian

**Lord Protector:** Don't you understand? The Rat King wants to drive a wedge between us!

**Guardian:** What are you taking me for? A fool?

**Lord Protector:** I'm about to.

...

**Lord Protector:** Look, unless we team up Pangea is doomed.

**Guardian:** Your reputation is ruined. But we don't seem to have a choice...

**Guardian:** And I hate rodents

**Lord Protector:** Thank you. I appreciate your help.Commander

**Commander:** I spoke to my brother. He... Confirmed what you told me

**Lord Protector:** Your brother is a thug. I would never ask him for help.

**Lord Protector:** How could you leave Pangea in danger?

...

**Commander:** The Watch will fulfill its duties and protect the kingdom!

**Commander:** Usually I don't forgive betrayal. But your soul is still noble after all.

**Commander:** Consider this a misunderstanding. Let's kill the Rat!Rat King

**Rat King:** So you got them back on your side. Good. More corpses mean more booty!

**Lord Protector:** You will pay for my damaged reputation!

**Rat King:** Rrrrrgh! Attack!

...

**Rat King:** So what are you gonna do? Kill me? Is that it?

**Lord Protector:** The darkest dungeon in the sixth sector is waiting for you. Go back to where you wanted to escape so badly.

**Lord Protector:** Besides your former master isn't very happy with you either.

**Lord Protector:** I hope he acts like a real rat and chooses the most disgusting punishment for you.

**Rat King:** Nooo! See you again, Lord Protector. There's no dungeon I can't get out of!
