Crypt Knight
Dialogue
Halt, in the King's name. State your purpose.
This place is under the watch of the Lightbearers. Why are you here?
Do not proceed further. What is today's password?
This place is guarded by the Lightbearers.
In the name of the King, halt. Put your weapon away if you want to live.
I am Captain Mordrain Schloss. I am a Lightbearer and protector of Elan.
When I was a boy I entered the King's service - though come to think of it we had a Queen back then.
I have been with the Lightbearers for more years than I care to mention.
The Lightbearers are my family. I require no other.
My current assignment is to guard this crypt, ensuring that nothing evil escapes.
The rest of my squad was killed while I was off relieving myself. Talk about "stuff happening," eh?
Okay. Not that funny, but in the Service you have to find humour where you can.
With the Light's blessings, I will triumph.
I am guided by the Light and made steadfast by my duty to the King.
Beyond that, I have an itch in the middle of my back that torments me.
Got a thin stick I can borrow?
Do I miss my squad who all died in battle the other day?
Sure, but they knew the risks.
You stand at the entrance to the Master Crypt, a cesspit of abominations. Its secrets are best left undisturbed.
Monsters and other foul creatures emerge from time to time. I kill them, or they kill me.
What's inside? Graves, crypts, seductive things of enormous power that turn the weak into foul creatures to be destroyed.
With the King's blessing, I hope someday to lead a cleansing expedition inside.
I do.
Yes. You are kind to ask.
With the rest of the squad dead, yes indeed.
Your service is welcome.
No. My love for the King is all I need.
Not at the moment. You are dismissed.
No. But if you run into my relief squad, tell them that Mordrain says to get their lazy backs moving.
Negative. I have things well in hand.
