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…

- "Then the world will turn away from you, and leave you behind."
- "Daba-doop-doop-dead," he says without a hint of melody. Not one muscle in his face moves.
- "No sirree." He shakes his head.
- He nods in agreement with this advanced piece of conceptualization. Having mulled it over the lieutenant says: "That sounds about right, yes."
- "We should go talk to the locals, find something else to do while the wind changes. It's pretty bad right now."
- "He is." He points to the corpse.
- He would follow you into death itself... and you would do the same for him.
- "My colleague has an exploratory sense of humour. Don't hold it against him."
- It's good we discussed your history with her, he thinks. I can play along.
- We should have discussed your history before we came here, he thinks. So many unpleasant surprises with this guy...
- You catch the lieutenant's side-glance, but he doesn't say anything.
- "Go ahead," she remarks sharply, "call people rude things. We've heard worse here. Now are you interested or not?"
- The lieutenant sighs at your flagrant misogyny.
- "... and neither have you. Had you let me in on the script of this play before you performed it, I could have gone along. As it stands, the entire line of qu…
- "You." The lieutenant turns to you. "If you were intending to use an unorthodox questioning technique for this branch of the investigation -- which, by the w…
