## Dialogue

Previous: "Red Ned Redemption"
(*Talking to Ned Collie in the Wobbegong Territory*)

 **Ned Collie:** Wait! Why are there hoof prints here?
 **Judge Veg:** Seems someone found your hideout first. We'll guard the exit. Wizard, you can handle this.
(*After entering the Hostage Cave*)

 **Matilda Collie:** I told you to get, you lousy neigh-sayer. These are my hostages and they ain't leavin' just cause Prince Mario says so.
 **Luigi di Mario:** \*Yawn\* Sorry, threats, boring. Toadies, eat- wait... wait one second. Is that the Wizard? THE Wizard? The one my little bro is always whining about?
 **Luigi di Mario:** Luigi di Mario, Prince of House Mario, at your service. Well, I say service. I know, I know, people often go blind basking in my presence.
 **Luigi di Mario:** But don't, we've got stuff. Honor and all that. You offended the family Mario on Novus, so I plumbed the depths of a fallen world for toadies...
 **Huntsman Toadie:** That's us.
 **Luigi di Mario:** That's right. To hunt you down and bring you to me. But they failed. Of course. And I hear you already scrapped my theme park venture. No big deal.
 **Luigi di Mario:** I'm the Hunter of Giant Ghosts, Stepper-Onner of Angry Mushroom Things and Stomper of Thwompers. The park was just... a hobby, I guess.
 **Luigi di Mario:** Uh-huh, uh-huh, Dingoes, ranchers, disruption \*YAWN\* Sorry, peasants, boring.
 **Luigi di Mario:** So let's fight - Scion of Bartleby vs. Champion of House Mario - legends in the flesh. And, yes, when I defeat you, I will sign your gravestone.
(*Cheat voicelines when fighting Luigi di Mario*)

 **Luigi di Mario:** I use the best Power-ups!
 **Luigi di Mario:** You bring the fire, I bring the flower!
 **Luigi di Mario:** Shadow Pips? \*Yawn\*
(*After defeating Luigi di Mario*)

 **Luigi di Mario:** Oh, so this is what losing feels like? I don't like it. Not a bit. Hate this world. Back to Novus then. Rematch soon, yes?
 **Judge Hopner:** Finally! Someone's come to free us. We've been living off Marleymite for days. Terrible stuff.
 **Joan Locke:** It is an acquired taste. Now, shall we?
 **Matilda Collie:** No, you shall not! You are still hostages of the Collie Gang until-
 **Ned Collie:** Mattie, is that you? It's alright. We made a deal.
 **Matilda Collie:** Oh. Then you're all free to go.
(*After exiting the Hostage Cave*)

 **Judge Hopner:** Ned Collie! You're under arrest.
 **Ned Collie:** That I am. That's the deal. Take me back to Hope Springs, Judge. I won't fight. I want me day in court.
 **Judge Hopner:** We'll see about that. I don't know what you did, Wizard, but it seems I owe you many ta's again.
 **Matilda Collie:** Hope you know what you're doin', Ned. I'll look after things here and arrange a lawyer. I know one who puts on quite a show.
 **Judge Veg:** And you're the Drover Ned captured?
 **Joan Locke:** Quite. Not what you were expecting, I'd wager. Have you made camp yet? Let us go there and I'll tell you my tale.
 **Judge Veg:** Wizard, I'd like to come along. Freddie's still out there and he's kind of my fault. I want to help you stop him. And meet this Nothing again, if I can.
(*Talking to Joan Locke in the Wobbegong Territory*)

 **Joan Locke:** Right. First thing's first. My name is Joan Locke, of the Royal Marleybone Cane Resort Expedition. We came here to build a resort, you see.
 **Judge Veg:** That makes you sound more Townie than Drover.
 **Joan Locke:** It does, doesn't it? That's how it started. But, you see, I wanted the authentic Wallaru experience. So I did the Walkabout.
 **Joan Locke:** Not the fake simulation they sell you in cities. The real thing. I traveled the wastes, dug for drops of Dream Water...
 **Joan Locke:** Prepared myself to pass the Great Barrier and enter the Dreaming itself. So true was my intent, the Drovers let me through...
 **Joan Locke:** ...And I dreamt. I lived my hopes in an instant and made them true. The reality... disappointed. That's when my priorities changed.
 **Sandiago:** Fascinating. If you two are close with the Drovers, might you help us treat with them? We also seek to pass the Great Barrier.
 **Joan Locke:** You seem... familiar. But, yes, it is the least I can do. The Drovers are based in the Eucalyptus Forest. Follow me.
(*Talking to Joan Locke in the Eucalyptus Forest*)

 **Joan Locke:** Quite the sight, isn't it? This is the home of the Wallaru Drovers - those who abandoned corrupt cities not to seize the Dream, but protect it.
 **Joan Locke:** Specifically, to protect this... the Pink Lake - the last of the Dream Waters not trapped beyond the Great Barrier.
