The General's Secret

Curilla: You are an adventurer in good standing, are you not? I have a request for you, if you've the time. Listen to Curilla's request?

  • Listen.
    There is a spring atop Horlais Peak from which the sweetest water flows. I want you to bring me some. I could have one of my knights bring it, but...I would like to keep this an outside job.
    Why? I have my reasons. Tell me, will you do it?
    Accept Curilla's request?
    • Accept.
      Then, good luck! Use this to draw water from the spring atop Horlais Peak.
    • Decline.
      That is unfortunate. I'll ask somebody else.
  • Not now.
    That is unfortunate. I'll ask somebody else.

Curilla: I knew I had judged you well. Thank you for this.
What will I use it for? The spring water is good for my eye, you see. I suppose I can tell you...
Once, long ago, I faced Prince Trion in the tourneys. But I lost an eye in exchange for the championship.
The honor of best sword of San d'Oria was mine...but the eye that I lost still pains me. I consider it punishment for yearning to hear the crowd cheering my name...
Please, tell no one. Many knights would seek to take my place if they heard me say such things.
I tell you because I judge you an honest man/woman. Please do not tell me I have erred!
Thank you, and I will think of you again, next I have need for something.

Trust: San d'Oria

Curilla: What do you wish today?
Oh, you have San d'Oria Trust permit? I see...
So you have succeeded in drawing forth Trust magic, then.
No, I cannot admit to being surprised. A man/woman of your talents is capable of much in these dark times.
Let me guess--you wish to see if you can summon my alter ego, do you not?
Attempt the ritual with Curilla?

  • Yes.
    Both Prince Trion and the Jeuno Institute of Magical Studies had the same words for me when this experiment began.
    "Think of the glory, Curilla." Yet to be honest, I am quite unsure of myself.
    I fear my skills are yet inferior. What good can an alter ego be when the original remains weak?
    Try as I might, I cannot help but picture people pointing and laughing as I falter. A leader who cannot command respect is no better than a king with no country.
    And further, I have never been one to fight for fame or personal gain. Not since I lost my eye in exchange for victory in the tourneys.
    I recall discussing this with you when I asked you to bring me water from the spring atop Horlais Peak.
    You proffer that I should think not of glory, but of...helping others?
    ...You are correct, of course. Yet another sign that I have much to learn.
    Anyway/A-anyway, let us return to the subject of Trust. I will consent to engaging in this ritual with you.

Please, close your eyes...

  • No.
    I must confess, my heart is not in this, either. Prince Trion insisted that I participate, though, and I cannot deny him.

Curilla: A grand success! Perhaps now I can repay my debt to you and the citizens of this great nation.
May our paths cross again and our friendship deepen further.
