Dialogue
402- Large letters on the front form a title: "Wirrâl." The colourful box is illustrated with…
- You see a colourful primer. The title reads: "A Primer for Small Kids."
- This is the door to your room.
- "I'm afraid we don't have time for rest stops right now, officer. We should really get…
- "Be careful out there. Sea's calm as death, but still... there are ruins underwater. You…
- The skiff bobs in the calm waters. It has nothing more to do.
- The man nods at you, checks his watch and sighs, "Ai-ai-ai..."
- The air outside is brisk, the lieutenant is silent for a moment. He listens to the…
- "I've got some good news." The lieutenant smiles. "I took care of the body. The thought…
- The cabinet is cleaned out, emptied.
- Wow, so someone's been a little... boring?
- Honourable One, you have accumulated a substantial amount of honour points on your…
- "Always a pleasure to see an officer of the law!"
- Just dead and dying locusts, and the slow swaying of surrounding reeds.
- The trap is filled with dead and dying locusts. Most of them aren't moving anymore. You…
- The trap is full of locusts, but they seem weak and unhealthy. A few lie on their backs…
- "Think you can hang our brother and then just fucking talk your way out of it?" His eyes…
- The skiff is swaying on the waves by the dock.
Notes
461- "Any halfway competent notary should be able to handle this. Not getting their actual signatures was probably the best thing to do."
- Lieutenant Kitsuragi's stern expression remains unchanged -- but you sense he can't be happy about this turn of events.
- The lieutenant tries to remain impassive but the slight arch of his eyebrow tells you that he's liking it.
- "Fuckin' A, Kim. I've got your back." (Give the lieutenant a punch on the shoulder.)
- "He's right. You're undermining our best shot at real self-determination."
- "Right. I have to get back to my homework now, before Mum notices. Man, this is hard..." She looks back at the infernal scribblings under her nose.
- "Wonderful." The lieutenant falls silent. His expression is hard to read, but it certainly doesn't look happy. Then he speaks...
- "I'm going to stop this conversation." He makes a sudden hand gesture. An open palm. "This is Martinaise. People have certain attitudes here. You will find p…
- "Well," he says after taking a moment to collect himself. "You've made your views on the subject quite clear..." Another little pause.
- "Let's go." The lieutenant nods at you.
- "I thought this was a lousy way to enter a place of worship that's already in disrepair. I guess the church agreed."
- "Good god, detective! What's wrong with you?"
- "Yes, only the detective here would draw a connection between a made-up division of para-psychics and the addled ramblings of a defunct communist mage..."
- The lieutenant doesn't speak, but you believe you detect a slight widening of his eyes, as though he never expected such a cogent thought to emerge from your…
- "Thank god we avoided that fiasco, at least..."
- "I suppose that would be something to see." The lieutenant seems amused at the thought of you wrestling a bear.
- "But you made the right decision, the more difficult decision, in my mind, at least."
- "But you did accomplish your task. You reached the Coalition. I must admit, I didn't seriously think you could do it, but you've proved me wrong."
