Though the Empire would seek to oppress us, I do not share the same animosity towards its citizens as my Resistance comrades. I was so certain the castrum was ours... How could this have happened?

I would not have the others think me a coward or a traitor to our cause. So many lives lost for the attempt, and we have naught to show for our struggles. Not even Gunnhildr's Blades...

Much like me, she has no living relatives, so it will take time to determine what, if any, close acquaintances she had within the Resistance. Reinforcements will soon arrive from Dalmasca, but I fear even with their strength we will be powerless against Queen Gunnhildr.

77 73 TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_450 At present, the castrum is held by Legatus Gabranth's second-in-command, Menenius rem Lanatus, or I suppose I should say Menenius sas Lanatus, if our intelligence is to be believed. It would appear he was recently promoted to commanding officer of the legion's forces.
78 74 TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_451 Lanatus is a well-known family with a long and august lineage. That is, until they incurred the ire of the Emperor, tarnishing their name and robbing them of their position in Garlean society.
79 75 TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_452 And yet Basch van Gabranth would choose members of their family to serve under him. Mayhap he sensed their desperation to redeem their honor. If that is the case, the road to redemption is long indeed, for two generations of Lanatus have served under the Gabranths.
80 76 TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_453 A curious state of affairs considering the information recently pried from one of our prisoners. You see, Menenius is not of Garlean descent─he is an Elezen. Adoption of a non-Garlean by nobles is unprecedented.
81 77 TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_454 Only the gods know what inexplicable twist of fate would drive them to do such a thing, but I can understand why they would remain at the side of one who seeks the discarded and otherwise undesirable.
82 78 TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_455 Menenius serves as their chief intelligence officer, and as you might imagine, the greater part of his time is spent recruiting and dispatching spies, plotting how best to subvert their enemies.
83 79 TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_456 It yet remains to be seen if Misija was a spy from the start, or if they persuaded her to turn against us, but I have no doubt that what has happened was all according to his plans.
84 80 TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_457 What I find more concerning, however, is how they are still able to recruit more soldiers to their cause with their empty promises of a new nation.
85 81 TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_458 We would do well not to underestimate them, Blade <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,2)/>. There is no telling what they may attempt next to thwart us.
86 82 TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_500 I serve primarily as liaison 'twixt the Bozjan Resistance and our allies. I'll not deny there is still much for me to learn, but I will do everything within my power to see Bozja free of the Empire. If that should mean my life, then so be it.
87 83 TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_501 You...wish to know of my past? It is no different than most, I would imagine─conscription by the Empire, which is the only reason I was not present in the citadel to die alongside my kin in the Bozja incident.
