40TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_001Find another table. This one is taken.
51TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_005Tread softly, friend. The Temple Knights are always watching.
62TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_010If you've questions to ask, then by all means.
73TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_Q1_000_050What will you ask?
84TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_A1_000_051Tell me about yourself.
95TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_A1_000_052What is a dark knight?
106TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_A1_000_053Nothing.
117TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_060...There is rather little to tell.
128TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_061My master was an accomplished dark knight who saved countless lives─including mine own.
139TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_062I owed him my life, and so I pledged it to his cause. I begged him to teach me the dark arts, and he agreed, making me his first pupil. Fray would become the second shortly thereafter.
1410TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_063Heh, how different we were. I recall our master once likened me to a smoldering campfire and Fray to a frozen lake.
1511TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_064...We knew the risks. We swore that we would have no regrets. And I...I have none.
1612TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_065All that remains is to finish what we started.
1713TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_070Recall the story of the first, who was that rarest of knights─one who held his vows sacrosanct and strove ever to walk in the Fury's grace.
1814TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_071This man good and true did what no one else had the courage to do. He passed judgment on a vile beast who had used his position in the clergy to commit unspeakable crimes.
1915TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_072To wit, he cut down the clergyman before the eyes of gods and men, ensuring that the bastard would never harm another child of the Brume again.
2016TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_073The Holy See could not abide such action, of course. He was detained and delivered unto the Tribunal. Though he won his freedom through trial by combat, he was later stripped of his titles and denounced for his deeds.
2117TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_074But rather than lament his poor fortune, he embraced it. If they would condemn him as a dark knight, then he would take it as a title.
2218TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_075He forsook the trappings of his past life, including his sigil and the shield which bore it. In its place, he came to wield something far more potent: a power born of the abyss which lies at the heart of us all.
2319TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_076A darkness which can grant us great strength...at a price.
2420TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_100You look to be in good health, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>. Something we can do for you?
2521TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_101Oh, don't you worry about me. I'll be right as rain soon enough. Ugh... Was there something you wanted to discuss?
2622TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_102Trouble seems to follow you wherever you go, doesn't it? And when it doesn't, you can't help but conjure it up... Anyway, how goes it?
2723TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_103Saved any more parallel worlds lately? I jest, I jest. Still, you can't blame a man for viewing such incredible claims with a measure of skepticism, can you?
2824TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_104Well, aren't we a creature of habit. Not much reason to call on us these days, yet here you are, curious to see how we're getting on.
2925TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_Q2_000_150What will you ask?
3026TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_A2_000_151How fare you and Rielle?
3127TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_A2_000_152What is a dark knight?
3228TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_A2_000_153Nothing.
3329TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_A3_000_154How fare you and Rielle?
3430TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_A3_000_155Have you any thoughts on Myste?
3531TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_A3_000_156Tell me again about Fray.
3632TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_A3_000_157Any thoughts on the Final Days?
3733TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_160It would seem that the countess's crusade died with her. No one has sought us out since that day.
3834TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_161Even so, I do not expect these peaceful days to last. So long as there are those who prey on the weak and helpless, there will ever be a need for knights such as we.
3935TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_162But I worry for Rielle. I cannot abandon her, yet I would not have her be a party to what will come...
4036TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_163<Emphasis>Her</Emphasis>, walk the path!? I... But she's just a...
4137TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_164...Her life is her own, to make with it what she will. If that is her desire...then we shall discuss it.
4238TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_170I should think you know as well as I─perhaps even better. Nevertheless, if you wish to hear the tale once more, I will oblige.
4339TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_171Recall the story of the first, who was that rarest of knights─one who held his vows sacrosanct and strove ever to walk in the Fury's grace.

4541TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_173To wit, he cut down the clergyman before the eyes of gods and men, ensuring that the bastard would never harm another child of the Brume again.
4642TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_174The Holy See could not abide such action, of course. He was detained and delivered unto the Tribunal. Though he won his freedom through trial by combat, he was later stripped of his titles and denounced for his deeds.
4743TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_175But rather than lament his poor fortune, he embraced it. If they would condemn him as a dark knight, then he would take it as a title. He forsook the trappings of his past life, including his sigil and the shield which bore it. In its place, he came to wield something far more potent: a power born of the abyss which lies at the heart of us all. A darkness which can grant us great strength...at a price.
4844TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_176I once thought I understood this power. But then I met a band of singing moogles, and...well, I wouldn't say I'm <Emphasis>conflicted</Emphasis>. I'm rather certain that I have a greater understanding of the darkness within than some furry little shites. Still, I...I'm not quite sure what to think.
4945TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_180I try not to think about that strange boy and whatever he might have been. No one truly understands the nature of soul crystals. Not just ours, mind─I heard a rumor once upon a time about paladins and “establishing dominance.” Bollocks, eh?
5046TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_181Anyway, the one thing we know for certain is that the beings he conjured with his magick were not the spirits of the dead, but simulacra born from the memories of the living.
5147TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_182A memory is hardly a perfect accounting of past events and people. Be it consciously or subconsciously, our perceptions and feelings distort the truth.
5248TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_183Take that woman, the cousin of Ser Ignasse. She wanted to make him proud, and so he praised her efforts. Lowdy's husband and Gallien's friend were similarly shaped by the desires within their own hearts...
5349TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_184...And no, I would rather not discuss the implications of my master soundly defeating me, yet somehow letting you win.
5450TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_185The point is, those shades spoke not the words of the dead, but the truth of our own hearts. What we bore witness to were conversations with one's self.
5551TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_186At least, that's what I'm inclined to believe. But like I said, who knows? Soul crystals are strange little things. Perhaps it's best not to dig too deep.
5652TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_190Keen to take a stroll down memory lane? I'm not sure what's prompting this, but if you insist...
5753TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_191Fray was the second pupil Ser Ompagne took after me. In our master's words, I was the smoldering campfire, whereas Fray was the frozen lake.
5854TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_192He had an unquenchable thirst for knowledge, and pursued the study of conjury in addition to our dark arts. It is well he did, for otherwise he might not have been able to sense Rielle's potential and train her as a healer.
5955TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_193"Why conjury, of all things?“ I once asked him that...
6056TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_194Fray shrugged and smiled in that way of his, and said, “When you're coming apart at the seams, who else will make you whole again?”
6157TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_195That was who he was to me. Who he was to you, though... Well. You'd know better than me.
6258TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_200Ah, that black business. I've heard the same as everyone else, which is to say not much. You and yours have been involved, I trust?
6359TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_201To the edge of the great expanse and beyond... I won't pretend to understand how any of that was even possible, but I've no doubt it played out exactly as you said.
6460TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_202And so, having saved life as we know it from oblivion, you return to your dark knight stamping grounds to see if there are any less-cosmic villains in need of a firm rebuke?
6561TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_203No rest for the righteous indeed... You'll be disappointed to hear that things are fine for the most part. Likely due to you going about playing hero.
6662TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_204Aye, not much has changed, to the frustration of many it seems. Like Rielle and her height. I swear, every day she's trying some new trick she learned about from a friend's sister's cousin.
6763TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_205Children are always so eager to grow up. I was too, I suppose. Like everyone else once was.
6864TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_206...Listen, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>. I don't know if you came back hoping I had some final pearls of wisdom to share─something to put it all in perspective─but if you did, you were wrong. You know everything you need to know already.
6965TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_207You bear the sword and the promise. Memories and dreams of your own and of others. You stand for those who have no one else. That's all there is to it.
7066TEXT_JOBDEFDRK_00300_SIDURGU_000_208There's no path to walk or guide to follow. What strength and meaning you derive from the struggle is yours alone to find. No one else was ever the writer─it's always been your story. So go and live it.
