[edit] Dialogue
[edit] Initial dialogue
Count zu Heltzer
- "Danika speaks highly of you, <Player Name>. You might not be a Kurzick by birth, but you are fast proving yourself worthy of becoming an honorary Kurzick.
- "By the grace of the gods, we Kurzicks have found a way to create juggernauts. For years, they have proven effective in defending our forest from the Luxons, but recently, those heathens have begun overpowering our juggernauts. The redemptors have prayed on the subject for weeks now, and at last, they say the gods have spoken to them: we must develop new, more powerful juggernauts.
- "You must gather the three volunteers who are willing to become juggernauts, and escort them to the Eternal Grove, where the sacred transformation will take place. Head to Drazach Thicket to gether volunteers Klaus, Leiber, and Ex-Redemptor Berta. Then, take all three of them to the Eternal Grove. Do you think you can handle this task? I cannot stress enough that failure is not an option."
[edit] Intermediate dialogue 1
Klaus
- "Oh, hello. Are you here to escort me to the Eternal Grove? Well...I can't say I'm not nervous, but I know I'm making the right decision. This is the first time in my life I've ever felt so sure of myself."
[edit] Intermediate dialogue 2
Leiber
- "So, it's time is it? Very well, let me say my farewells to my wife, and we shall be off."
[edit] Intermediate dialogue 3
- Leiber: "Anya, they've come for me. It's time to say goodbye. You know that I'm not a man of many words, but please remember that I love you, and that I do this for our family."
- Anya: "Oh Leiber, I know that. I shall miss you so much, but I have never been more proud of you, and I shall make sure that our people never forget you and the sacrifice you have made."
- Leiber: "Remember me, but don't mourn me, Anya. I want you to find happiness again...."
- Anya: "Don't say that, Leiber! You'll always be my husband!"
- Leiber: "I need to know that you'll move on, Anya! I can't do this if I know you'll be mourning me forever. Please, promise me you won't do that."
- Anya: "I promise, Leiber. But know that I will always remember you. I love you...."
- Leiber: "I love you, too, Anya. Farewell.... Well, I suppose this is it, then. Let's go."
[edit] Intermediate dialogue 4
Ex-Redemptor Berta
- "You are here to take me to the Eternal Grove? Good. I am very eager to get on with this and once again gain the favor of the gods and my people. I shall find redemption and wipe away my sins...."
[edit] Intermediate dialogue 5
Sergeant Geinrich
- "Thank you for safely escorting these volunteers, <Player Name>. Leiber, Berta, Klaus...I am honored to meet all of you. The sacrifice that you made today proves that your souls are pure, and that you are worthy of walking among the gods. Forevermore, you shall be known as saints among your people. Let me know when you wish to enter the Eternal Grove. Baron Mirek Vasburg is waiting."
- Accept: "Let's go."
[edit] Cinematic dialogue
- Player: "It's been a long time since we bested Shiro."
- Brother Mhenlo: "I was thinking the same thing."
- Brother Mhenlo: "I fear his return will not be long in coming."
- Baron Mirek Vasburg: "You worry about things that will never come to pass."
- Player: "Shiro is still a threat. The Affliction will return."
- Baron Mirek Vasburg: "Nonsense. Shiro is gone once again, and with him the Affliction."
- Baron Mirek Vasburg: "You should know. You were there."
- Player: "Yes, but--"
- Baron Mirek Vasburg: "Shiro is in the past. We must be mindful of the present."
- Baron Mirek Vasburg: "The Luxons are the biggest threat to us Kurzicks, and it is to them we must shift our focus."

[edit] Reward dialogue
Baron Mirek Vasburg
- "<player name>, it is our duty as Kurzicks to keep the Eternal Grove secure at all costs. We've received word that Luxon raiders are on their way to this area. We must not let them destroy this grove and the Forever Trees. Do you understand? Make your preparations, and I will see you inside the grove. If we survive, you have my word that the Great Houses will do as you ask."
