Dialogue

Morick Voss
NPC

Oh crikey. Who are you?... I mean... Stop! What do you want?

NPC

Stand to attention when you speak to a Lightbearer, soldier!

NPC

What brings you to this outpost, civilian?

NPC

Stop, in the name of the King! Uh, or whoever's in charge here, I mean.

Morick Voss
NPC

I am Morick Voss, obviously. A Lightbearer. Why do you ask?

NPC

I'm heroically protecting the world from this abomination!

NPC

A loyal guardian of Elan, like Lyna, my partner!

NPC

There's nothing we enjoy more than battling oozing blobs of corruption!

NPC

Fine! Very happy to be on this post on the edge of Hell! sob!

NPC

Alright! I'm sick of all the lies! I’m Morick Voss. I’m from another world.

NPC

I was blown here, to this nightmare planet, a few weeks ago. I found a man in armour, in the bushes nearby. He was extremely dead.

NPC

I took his armour, alright? It was safer than the lab coat I was wearing when I arrived. And he sure didn’t need it.

NPC

I noticed he looked a lot like me. So I took on his identity. Morick Voss. What a name, huh?

NPC

I’ve been pretending to be a Lightbearer ever since. I keep my helmet on.

NPC

My "partner," Lyna, doesn’t know a thing. I don’t think she knew the dead bloke all that well.

NPC

And if you rat me out, she'll chop my head right off. And that would suck.

NPC

You're at the edge of the Valley of Sins!

NPC

It's filled with blobs and corrupted beings thirsting for flesh.

NPC

It's a remarkable ecosystem, really, deserving of study. I mean, Ho! It must be destroyed!

NPC

We don’t know the source of the corruption. An artefact, perhaps? Technology?

NPC

It looks to me like a genetic experiment gone wrong - But what does a simple Lightbearer know of such things?!

NPC

We Lightbearers stop the corruption from spreading out of the Valley. My partner is very enthusiastic, and so of course, am I! Ho! and all that.

NPC

Hmm. I mean, Ho! Perhaps I can trust you.

NPC

You look fairly capable. But are you trustworthy?

NPC

That depends. Can you keep a secret?

NPC

Indeed. But this job isn’t for the faint-hearted.

NPC

I have a task that demands skill and subtlety, but maybe you'll do.

NPC

Not right now! Lyna may be watching!

NPC

The Lightbearers stand alone. Usually. Come back later.

NPC

Not yet. I need to gather more data.

NPC

I am self-sufficient, like any real Lightbearer.
