Dialogue

During day

Do you ever wonder where the stars go during the day? Maybe the sun acts as a giant magnet, attracting them into one supersolar construct before dissipating them at night.

Staring at the sun all day isn't healthy. Don't you have work to do?

Not particularly. There's nothing going on that they can't handle.

I don't think that's the point.

So, there are two suns out there at once? That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

Hmm, I did't account for that second solar body. My theory doesn't make much sense.

That's right.

You know, I've heard the exact same theory from a very reliable source.

You have? I knew it! Wait, if they had the same idea, I need to get working on a thesis. Can't let them beat me to the punch and get all the glory.

You do that.

I better go now.

During dawn and dusk

This in-between time is so awkward. Not quite day, not quite night. Everything would be so much more elegant if it were a simple on-off switch. None of this halfway malarkey.

Isn't there a job you should be doing?

Not particularly. There's nothing going on that they can't handle.

I don't think that's the point.

Transitions like this are key. One doesn't simply become. Change is a necessary process.

How insightful. Transitions are indeed required for change. I wonder if I can prove that scientifically... with fire and some beakers, of course.

I wish you luck.

I transition things from alive to dead. No in-between there.

Wow. That's rather scary. You do have all the required external appearances the part though. Violence just radiates off of you.

Yup, that's me.

Good talking to you

During night

Aren't the stars just stunning? They must have unfathomable magical energy to shine so brightly all the time. If we could harness that power, the results would be phenomenal.

Shouldn't you be working or something?

Not particularly. There's nothing going on that they can't handle.

I don't think that's the point.

I'm sure a wise asura such as yourself could do much with that kind of power.

Finally, someone with vision. Most others don't understand my genius. Your support will not be unwarranted. One day I'll be great, just wait and see.

I'm sure you will. Take care.

True, but I think your ambition may be beyond your means.

My father used to say "results are only limited by one's ambition, intelligence, and resources." You may be right though. I'll need a plan.

Good luck.

They are very pretty. Good-bye.

During Defend First Haven from Risen

They just keep coming! Please don't tell anyone I'm up here. I don't want to die.

This is time for heroes. Take up arms and help us win the day.

I don't know. I'm not a fighter, but you're right. Something needs to be done. Hiding doesn't solve anything. They'll find me eventually.

Then join the fight. Show the undead that good, brave people still exist in Tyria.

I...I...yes. I can't hide forever. It's time to stand up to those shambling corpses. If I don't make it, remember me when you look at the stars at night.

I'm proud of you. Now, to battle!

Anytime.

Stay out of sight. Maybe they won't come up here.

During Recapture First Haven from the Risen

Is it over? I haven't heard any screams for a while. I think I may be the only one alive. Oh, I never thought it would end like this.

What happened down there?

The undead swarmed in from the swamp and killed everyone in the fort. It was a terrible sight. I should know, with my terrific vantage point up here.

You sat up here and watched them all get slaughtered? What kind of person are you?

One who would have been slaughtered just like everyone else. It's only a matter of time anyhow. They're bound to find me eventually.

Let me take care of the undead. You stick to your strengths with hiding.

Stay here. I'll check out the fort.

I'm sure no one did.
