Price of Victory

Cinematic[edit]

Ogden Stonehealer: "That's a good day's fight!"

Vekk: "It would have been harder without the golems."

<Party leader>: "Gadd and Oola got everything working just in the nick of time."

<Party leader>: "Oola, I was just telling Vekk about your golems."

Oola: "Vekk, I have bad news. It's Gadd."

Vekk: "What's he upset about now?"

Oola: "He...He was trying to boost the power of the last golem."

Vekk: "What are you saying?"

Oola: "There was an explosion. He didn't make it. I'm sorry."

Vekk falls to his knees.

<Party leader>: "I don't understand. They hated each other. They argued all the time."

Oola: "Fathers and sons argue sometimes. That doesn't mean they don't care."

Vekk: "My father believed in the Eternal Alchemy. We are all part of a larger equation."

Vekk: "And so we commend Gadd's remains to that greater equation."

Vekk: "His ashes return to the universe, but his knowledge remains with us."

<Party leader>: "Vekk, we are all sorry."

Vekk: "He died the way he lived: focused on his goal, and consequences be damned. I tried to warn him."

Livia: "I know. I understand the need to protect the ones you love."

Livia: "Always remember, he gave us a great victory."

Vekk: "I don't know how many such victories I can stand."

Vekk's final line is reminiscent of Pyrrhus of Epirus' quote, "One more such victory would utterly undo me."
