Mercenary/Dialogue

Before the quest
The guard looks at you with a confused stare...
 * Mercenary: Yeah, what do you want?
 * What is this place?
 * Player: What is this place?
 * Mercenary: It's none of your business now get lost.
 * Perhaps five gold coins will make it my business?
 * Player: Perhaps five gold coins will make it my business?
 * Mercenary: It certainly will!
 * (The guard takes the five gold coins.)
 * Mercenary: Now then, what did you want to know?
 * What is this place?
 * [Missing dial]
 * What are you guarding?
 * Player: What are you guarding?
 * Mercenary: Well, if you have to know, we're making sure that no prisoners get out.
 * (The guard gives you a disaproving [sic] look.)
 * Mercenary: And to make sure that unauthorised [sic] people don't get in.
 * (The guard looks around nervously.)
 * Mercenary: You'd better go now before the Captain orders us to kill you.
 * Does the Captain order you to kill a lot of people?
 * Player: Does the Captain order you to kill a lot of people?
 * (The guard snorts.)
 * Mercenary: *Snort*
 * Mercenary: Just about anyone who talks to him.
 * Mercenary: Unless he has a use for you, he'll probably just order us to kill you.
 * Mercenary: And it's such a horrible job cleaning up the mess afterwards.
 * Not to mention the senseless waste of human life.
 * Player: Not to mention the senseless waste of human life.
 * Mercenary: Heh?
 * It doesn't sound as if you respect your Captain much.
 * Player: It doesn't sound is if you respect your Captain much.
 * Mercenary: Well, to be honest.
 * (The guard looks around conspiratorially.)
 * Mercenary: We think he's not exactly as brave as he makes out.
 * Mercenary: But we have to follow his orders.
 * Mercenary: If someone called him a coward,
 * Mercenary: or managed to trick him into a one-on-one duel.
 * Mercenary: Many of us bet that he'll be slaughtered in double quick time.
 * Mercenary: And all the men agreed that they wouldn't intervene.
 * Can I have a bet on that?
 * Player: Can I have a bet on that?
 * Mercenary: Well, if you think you stand a chance, sure.
 * Mercenary: But remember, if he gives us an order, we have to obey.
 * I'll bet 5 gold that I win.


 * I'll bet 10 gold that I win.


 * I'll bet 15 gold that I win.


 * I'll bet 20 gold that I win.
