10TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_010Though marauders are renowned for their raw destructive power, I prefer to focus my energies on developing effective stratagems.
21TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_011The doctrine of overwhelming force that many follow has not always been successful, you see. Ancient Nym, in particular, is said to have defended itself from numerous invasions, despite possessing only a token force of mariners and mages.
32TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_012Indeed, I believe there is much we can learn by studying the military tactics of old. I hope one day to persuade my brethren of this fact, so that we might grow as an organization.
43TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_000The Nymian tablets contain a veritable wealth of knowledge. Deciphering the remaining text may take an eternity\xe2\x94\x80but even if it does, it will be time well spent.
54TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_Q1_000_001What will you ask?
65TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_A1_000_001What do you do here?
76TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_A1_000_002What is a scholar?
87TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_A1_000_003Nothing.
98TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_020In that age of wonders more than fifteen hundred years ago, when rival nations brought earth-shattering magicks to bear against one another, scholars were instrumental in ensuring the survival of Nym.
109TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_021Though they were far fewer in number relative to the mariners, it is clear that these mages formed the backbone of the Nymian military.
1110TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_022One might describe their role as one which provides support, but that does not adequately describe their capabilities, as far as I am concerned.
1211TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_023Powerful restorative and enhancing magicks, well, those were hardly unusual in that day and age.
1312TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_024No, what set scholars apart was both the strength of their magicks, and the manner in which they employed them.
1413TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_025Aye, I speak of the faeries, those otherworldly creatures which the scholars learned to bind and control. Just how they managed to do so I have yet to discover, but I can only surmise that it required tremendous research and experimentation.
1514TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_026I suppose that is why I have taken to calling these mages \xe2\x80\x9cscholars,\xe2\x80\x9d though I confess that the description might seem incongruous with their military duties.
1615TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_030Such a pleasure to see you again, \x02,\r\xff\x07\x02)\x03\xeb\x02\x03\xff\x02 \x02\x03! I trust you and Lily have had many a grand adventure since last we spoke?
1716TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_031My friend, how fare you? I have devoted myself heart and soul to training in my every waking hour\xe2\x94\x80and dreaming of what I have learned every night.

2019TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_Q2_000_1What will you ask?
2120TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_A2_000_1How goes your research?
2221TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_A2_000_2What is a scholar?
2322TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_A2_000_3Nothing.
2423TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_100Quite well, and in large part thanks to you. Fighting by your side was an enlightening experience, to say the least.
2524TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_101However, as is often the case in academic research, it is the unexpected discoveries which prove the most fascinating. I must confess that I am tempted to broaden the scope of my studies. But that is a conversation for another day.
2625TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_103All I discovered in our last round of adventures has aided in my growth. I became the marauder I am today thanks to my long study of Nymian tactics and meeting you.
2726TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_104But all we have learned pales in comparison to what Surito Carito can yet teach us. This is a priceless opportunity to discover the secrets of Nym thought lost to the millennia, and to grow from their study.
2827TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_105Sergeant Tolga is a masterful teacher, though \xe2\x80\x9cgrueling\xe2\x80\x9d best describes his particular technique. But where there is no pain, there is nothing to be gained.
2928TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_106And what I have gained, my friend! The sergeant saw battle back when Nym warred with Mhach, and his experience shows in his instruction. Why, he has taught me more in a day than I could have learned from a tablet in a moon!
3029TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_107I am continuing to train under Sergeant Tolga. Though he has recognized I am worthy of the Royal Marines, he sees that I have not yet awakened to my full potential. However, I can no longer focus solely on my own progress.
3130TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_108There are many members of the Marauders' Guild who wish to learn Nymian techniques. They must be taught to defend the defenseless, and you and I must lead by example. To victory, my friend\xe2\x94\x80come hells or high water.
3231TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_110\x02\x08\xf2\x01o\xe4\xe9E\x1d\xff\x8bAre you teasing me? Look in a mirror! Or have you truly forgotten the most basic facts of the tradition which you yourself helped revive!?\xff\xf0\xdc...I see you are conducting yourself in a decidedly non-scholarly manner \x02\x08C\xe3\xe9\x0c\r\xff\x1e\x02\x08\x1a\xe3\xe9\x0c\x05\xff\rthis evening\xff\x06today\x03\xff\x1e\x02\x08\x1a\xe3\xe9\x0c\x12\xff\x06today\xff\rthis evening\x03\x03.

3332TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_100_110Hmmm... Now that we are working with Surito Carito, mayhap a review would not go amiss. However, I can scarce imagine I will tell you aught you did not know already...

3837TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_115Aye, I speak of the faeries, those otherworldly creatures which the scholars learned to bind and control.
3938TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_116However, as we saw firsthand on several occasions, that control is not absolute. And praise the Twelve that it is not, or we might have never learned the true nature of tonberries!
4039TEXT_JOBDEFSCH_00098_ALKAZOLKA_000_117Alas, I fear that revelation will do little to change how the tortured souls are treated. So long as the rancor drives the tonberries to violence, the people of Vylbrand will have no choice but to defend themselves...
