4	0	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSCHAK_000_000	There is still much to do before we can make our next move, and I am sure other duties yet demand your attention.
5	1	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSCHAK_000_001	If there is nothing else you wish to discuss, I will not keep you.
6	2	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSCHAK_000_005	The battle for Bozja has begun in earnest, Blade <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,2)/>. Already our forces have forced an imperial retreat and taken Utya's Aegis. Should you have time to inspect the camp, Sjeros can escort you.
7	3	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSCHAK_000_006	Before you leave, is there aught you wish to discuss?
8	4	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSCHAK_000_010	You have met the new Gunnhildr's Blades, yes? They are without question the finest of our soldiers, and under their leadership morale has never been higher. Victory is in reach, my friend. I can feel it.
9	5	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSCHAK_000_011	But I digress. If there is naught else, I will leave you to your duties.
10	6	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSCHAK_000_015	I was no stranger to Misija's grievances, and it was my belief they could be resolved once we reclaimed Bozja. Now... Now I do not know what to think...
11	7	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSCHAK_000_016	Ahem. But now is not the time to dwell on such things. Is there aught you need?
12	8	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSCHAK_000_020	Our next incursion will be into Castrum Lacus Litore. We must seize the fortress both to ensure Mikoto's safety and secure a foothold in Bozja. Failure is not an option.
13	9	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSCHAK_000_021	If you've naught to discuss, I will leave you to your preparations.
14	10	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSCHAK_000_025	Even now I struggle to understand what happened at the castrum. To lose Gunnhildr's Blades to the IVth Legion... It beggars belief.
15	11	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSCHAK_000_026	That this may have all been a ploy to afford them time to assemble reinforcements is quite concerning.
16	12	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSCHAK_000_027	Thankfully we have reinforcements of our own in the Dalmascan resistance, with more on the way from our Far Eastern allies.
17	13	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSCHAK_000_028	I but pray it will be enough to contend with this new threat. <sigh> For now, we can do naught but rest and regroup.
18	14	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSCHAK_000_029	I will not keep you, unless there is something you wish to discuss?
19	15	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_Q20_000_000	What will you say?
20	16	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_A20_000_000	Tell me about the IVth Imperial Legion.
21	17	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_A20_000_001	Tell me about Legatus Noah van Gabranth.
22	18	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_A20_000_002	Tell me about Castrum Lacus Litore.
23	19	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_A20_100_002	Tell me about Menenius rem Lanatus.
24	20	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_A20_000_003	Tell me about yourself.
25	21	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_A20_000_004	Tell me about Misija.
26	22	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_A20_000_0010	Nothing.
27	23	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_200	The initial invasion of Bozja was led by Basch van Gabranth. There would be a change of commander not long after, however.
28	24	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_201	Thirty years ago, during the invasion of Dalmasca, his health took an unexpected turn for the worse, and his son, Noah van Gabranth, oversaw the conquest to its completion. He was a mere twenty years old when he assumed full command.
29	25	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_202	The IVth Imperial Legion itself is rather unique compared to most, for the bulk of their forces are not native Garleans, their present leader included.
30	26	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_203	Both Noah and his father were quite quick to bend the knee to Emperor Solus, from what I have been told. Perhaps it was that ardent loyalty that helped them rise to such prominence.
31	27	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_204	But not all were such fervent followers of the Empire. Quite the contrary, I would hazard the greater part of their soldiers were like us, seeing little recourse but to serve lest they be put to the sword.
32	28	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_205	Though I suppose the unwavering loyalty of the IVth Imperial Legion is what serves to set it apart from the rest. Or to be more precise, its loyalty to Noah van Gabranth.
33	29	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_206	What's more, you will come to find they are not wont to rely on magitek armaments like most imperial soldiers.
34	30	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_207	Indeed, they seem to prefer fighting the old-fashioned way, employing arcane magicks, techniques akin to summoning, and all manner of feral beasts rather than depending on heavy artillery.
35	31	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_208	But I fear these will be the least of our concerns, for the battalions en route to Bozja are said to be led by Lyon sas Helsos.
36	32	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_209	He is a strategist whose cunning is matched only by his renown as a tamer of beasts, and it is rumored that he alone is worth more than a thousand rank-and-file troops. One might say he has history with the Resistance.
37	33	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_215	If reports from our spies are to be believed, his lust for battle and reckless behavior have earned him a demotion to Lyon <Emphasis>rem</Emphasis> Helsos, meaning Menenius has likely taken his place as commanding officer. I fear this may only encourage the famed tamer of beasts to spend more time in the field, which may ultimately prove to our detriment.
38	34	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_216	There is also the mage contingent led by imperial pilus prior Albeleo... The days ahead are fraught with hardship. Of that I have no doubt.
39	35	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_300	Ah yes, the leader of the IVth Imperial Legion, one of the youngest to ever take such a position. His father, Basch van Gabranth, served as legatus before him, claiming many a victory in the name of the Empire.
40	36	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_301	Basch was a knight of the Republic of Landis which, like so many other nations, was fast to fall at the hands of the Empire. Rather than die with dignity, he was quite quick to bend the knee to their conquerors, ingratiating himself with the Emperor and earning his place as a legatus.
41	37	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_302	This was quite a feat, given that he was not of Garlean blood. One can but imagine the lengths to which he went to earn their trust, but it is clear he labored hard to keep it.
42	38	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_303	His health took an unexpected turn for the worse during the invasion of Dalmasca, which afforded Noah the opportunity he needed to rise to prominence. And it was under Noah's leadership that Rabanastre would fall.
43	39	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_304	Then, when his father passed two years later, he was named the next legatus of the IVth Imperial Legion.
44	40	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_305	Many believe it was the conquest of Dalmasca that earned him the position, but some argue he was appointed on the recommendation of the Emperor, perhaps in recognition of his father's service to the Empire.
45	41	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_306	Regardless of the reason, Noah would continue in his father's footsteps. The IVth Imperial Legion would continue to be comprised primarily of foreign soldiers, and their loyalty to the newly appointed legatus was unfaltering.
46	42	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_307	One might expect such a legion to remain within the Emperor's good graces, but it would not be so when Varis took the throne. For several years he appointed them to the quelling of uprisings in remote provinces, as if to keep them at arm's length.
47	43	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_308	Perhaps he suspected an ulterior motive to the Gabranths seeking to gain such fervent adoration from the IVth Imperial Legion. I have no proof, of course, but one cannot help but wonder...
48	44	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_400	It was once known as Alermuc Fortress, erected in the hopes of deterring the Garleans. After the Bozja incident, it would be rebuilt and given a new name─Castrum Lacus Litore.
49	45	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_401	Its position to the north of Bozja will make it a critical strategic point in the battles to come. If we are to have any hope of reclaiming Bozja, we must first gain control of the castrum.
50	46	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_402	The location was originally chosen for its natural defenses. Being surrounded on all sides by steep cliffs made Alermuc Fortress all but impregnable. Assuming, of course, one had the wherewithal to defend it.
51	47	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_403	When the Garleans came, their magitek weaponry was unlike anything we had ever seen. A great many lives were lost in our struggle to hold the fortress, and in the end we were simply outmatched.
52	48	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_404	At present, the castrum is held by Legatus Gabranth's second-in-command, Menenius rem Lanatus. An interesting choice, to say the least.
53	49	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_405	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.
54	50	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_406	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.
55	51	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_407	Imagine the recognition they would receive for thwarting our attempts to take the fortress. You can be sure he will do all in his power to stop us.
56	52	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_410	I was so certain the castrum was ours... How could this have happened?
57	53	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_411	So many lives lost for the attempt, and we have naught to show for our struggles. Not even Gunnhildr's Blades...
58	54	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_412	Reinforcements will soon arrive from Dalmasca, but I fear even with their strength we will be powerless against Queen Gunnhildr.
59	55	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.
60	56	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.
61	57	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.
62	58	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.
63	59	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.
64	60	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.
65	61	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.
66	62	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.
67	63	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.
68	64	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.
69	65	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.
70	66	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_502	Some would call it a massacre planned by the Empire, but I am not ready to believe they would willingly kill so many of their own soldiers and engineers.
71	67	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_503	Having been raised under the Garlean doctrine, I realize that not all of them are the bloodthirsty monsters many of us would paint them to be. Though the Empire would seek to oppress us, I do not share the same animosity towards its citizens as my Resistance comrades.
72	68	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_504	But these are musings better left between the two of us, yes? I would not have the others think me a coward or a traitor to our cause.
73	69	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_600	Though we've few resources to spare, I have every intention of investigating Misija and her past, but it will prove a difficult endeavor. 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.
74	70	TEXT_REGOTH4MYCMARSCHAK_00658_MARSHAK_200_601	Should we learn anything of import, I will send word to you at once.
