North Kryta Province

 * Inquisitor Bauer:  DAMN IT, we don't have time for this! Tell me where the Shining Blade is hiding.
 * Farmer Dirk:  I don't know anything! I'm just a simple hog farmer!
 * Inquisitor Bauer:  You're going to tell me what I want to know. It's just a question of how much it's going to hurt you.
 * Peacekeeper Marksman:  Careful boss, you can't keep killing all of our leads...
 * Inquisitor Bauer: Don't question my methods!
 * Inquisitor Bauer: That sure is a nice pig you have there. If you tell me what you know, I'll make sure nothing bad happens to him.
 * Peacekeeper Marksman: Ummm... Boss?
 * Inquisitor Bauer: Don't interrupt me while I'm interrogating a suspect!
 * Peacekeeper Marksman: But...don't those guys over there look kind of familiar?
 * Inquisitor Bauer: I don't have time to follow your ignorant hunches, I'm a professional!
 * Peacekeeper Marksman: Uhhh... Ok, you're the boss...
 * Inquisitor Bauer: Do you see this pine cone? Do you know what I could do to you with with this pine cone?
 * Peacekeeper Enforcer: Mmmmphy eees ellphin ehh ruuuph.
 * Inquisitor Bauer: What? I can't understand a word you are saying! Why don't you take that stupid thing out of your mouth!?
 * Peacekeeper Marksman: He said "Maybe he's telling the truth." He has a point... maybe this farmer doesn't know anything.
 * Inquisitor Bauer: Impossible! Look, farmer, tell me what you know or things are going to start getting messy!
 * Farmer Dirk: Fine, fine... the Shining Blade is hiding in... umm...
 * Inquisitor Bauer: Out with it! We're running out of time!
 * Farmer Dirk: They're in Scoundrel's Rise! Yeah, that's it! I mean... where else would scoundrels like them be?
 * Inquisitor Bauer: Of course! You men stay behind and see if you can get any more information. 
 * Inquisitor Bauer: I'm going to Nebo Terrace to gather my "interrogation supplies" so I can be first to reach the traitor's camp.
 * Inquisitor Bauer: I need to get there with haste! I don't want my suspects pre-beaten when I start my work!
 * (Inquisitor Bauer runs off)


 * Peacekeeper Marksman: So what do you people know about the Shining Blade?
 * : The Shining who? Never heard of them.
 * Peacekeeper Enforcer: mrrrmph ummmph huphin braaph?
 * Peacekeeper Marksman: I agree, my hulking accomplice. Perhaps we should jog their memory.
 * (All Peacekeepers turn hostile and attack you)

Scoundrel's Rise

 * Camryn Jamison [Collector]: Like I said to the others, "A Shining Blade camp? Around here? Ridiculous!"
 * Inquisitor Bauer: Impossible. I have infallible intelligence that proves the Shining Blade is working out of this area!
 * Peacekeeper Enforcer: Ummph emphaaarrool eemmph?
 * Peacekeeper Marksman: Don't worry, I don't think he knows what infallible means either... 
 * Camryn Jamison [Collector]: Look, this entire area is infested with Skale and Mergoyles. Even the Shining Blade wouldn't set up in the middle of that.
 * Inquisitor Bauer: Dammit!
 * Peacekeeper Marksman: Don't worry boss, you can't be right all the time... 
 * Inquisitor Bauer: No, you idiot! Clearly this means the Shining Blade have forged an alliance with the Skale and Mergoyles!
 * Inquisitor Bauer: We'll need to interrogate the beasts one at a time. Hop to it!
 * Peacekeeper Marksman: But... they can't talk! 
 * Inquisitor Bauer: Ha! The great Inquisitor Bauer can make anyone, or anything, talk!
 * Camryn Jamison [Collector]: Is this guy serious? 
 * Peacekeeper Marksman: Honestly I don't... wait... Boss, there! Shining Blade operatives!
 * Inquisitor Bauer: Ah ha! You thought you could hide among your beastly allies. No one hides from Inquisitor Bauer.
 * : Blast! You know of the great Mergoyle accord. The rest of the White Mantle cannot know about this.
 * Inquisitor Bauer: Take them alive. Start with these insolent fools!

(Entire group turns hostile and attacks you)


 * Inquisitor Bauer: Dammit, we don't have time for this. I need back-up!

(Inquisitor Bauer runs off)
