## Dialogue

Previous: "Hems for All He's Worth"
(*Talking to Ned Collie in Collie Ranch*)

 **Ned Collie:** The hostages are fine, Mattie's lookin' after 'em. Lots of food. All the comforts of home. While the Judges have sealed themselves inside mine.
 **Liam Collie:** And they installed a bunch of high-tech defenses from Marleybone. I can help ye get past the Dart Turrets, if you distract them.
 **Luke Collie:** The robot sentries just need a good thump on the head. If you get one, I'll get the other.
 **Chris Collie:** The security shutters use that newfangled electricity. Fortunately, I've an affinity for that sort of thing. I can help ye trip the breakers.
 **Ned Collie:** Once the house is open, you and I will go kick out the rats. Alright, boys, let's get to work.
(*After disabling the Robot Guard*)

 **Luke Collie:** Time for the old one-two punch!
 **Luke Collie:** Easy as pie.
(*After distracting the Dart Turrets*)

 **Liam Collie:** It's just a flick of a switch.
 **Liam Collie:** And done.
(*After disabling the Shutters near the Fuse Box*)

 **Chris Collie:** By the Hammer of Tor!
 **Chris Collie:** Tor's me mate from Welling Town. Likes hammers. Go figure. Get inside while the gettin's good.
(*After meeting Ned Collie near the entrance of the house*)

 **Ned Collie:** Alright, let's go pass sentence on these Judges. Veg will stay out here and collect them as we push them out.
Dialogue continues in "You Can Go Home Again" and returns here once completed
(*After defeating Judge Judi*)

 **Ned Collie:** Guess me sentence got commuted. Let's call it community service.
 **Judge Judi:** Is that what you think of yourself? That you're some noble rogue? Ha! You're a scoundrel pretending to be a hero to dupe a few rubes.
 **Ned Collie:** You were trying to steal me land!
 **Judge Judi:** It's not yours!
 **Ned Collie:** It ought to be. And it will be. Now that I've got a gaggle of hostages. Now get!
(*After exiting the Collie Homestead*)

 **Ned Collie:** We descendants of the Spiral outcasts have worked this land for generations. No help, no funds. Just us. Just grit. And we made a home here.
 **Judge Judi:** Yeah, yeah, you did this there for that long. Means nothing. The law is clear!
 **Ned Collie:** I ain't talkin' law. I'm talking justice. Justice for generations having to make a life outta sticks and sand, while you all fought over dreams.
 **Judge Veg:** Wizard's got a point. You got one side stuck in a dreamless land, you got another with dreams and no place to realize them. Easy compromise, yeah?
 **Judge Judi:** NO! These Dingoes are criminals!
 **Luke Collie:** 'Cause you made us that way. But, still, you'd have us, what, turn our lands into hokey dude ranches or sell Wombat rides for stupid high prices?
 **Judge Decker:** Actually... yes. That might work. Fits the whole rustic adventurer ethos we're trying to create. I could see that collaboration.
 **Judge Decker:** I mean... Prince Mario hasn't been a... pleasant business partner. Give us a proper pitch and we might devote some resources.
 **Ned Collie:** So we own the land? We build our own tourist trap and you sell it? I could maybe agree to that. Finally get to seize our own dream.
 **Judge Judi:** No, no, no! We will not reward this man, who has raided towns, attacked civilians and destroyed homes. I'll only agree if Ned Collie stands trial.
 **Ned Collie:** I might be able to go for that too. The people know I fight for them. I'm sure I'll be vindicated. But land grabs aren't our only problem...
 **Judge Veg:** Yeah. I'll get the Drovers to leave you be if it keeps the Judges from seizing lands closer to them and if-
 **Ned Collie:** I return their hostage. Fine. I'll show you where she is.
(*Talking to Ned Collie on the Wobbegong Territory*)

 **Ned Collie:** The Judge from the Outback and the one outlander Drovers seem okay with are in there. Perfectly fine and-
