Dialogue

Quest Acceptance

Lyse: Alphinaud said we were looking for a Roegadyn woman, right? And that we should answer her question with "courage"? I suppose we'll just have to strike up a conversation with every one of them until we find our contact. Let me know if you find her, and I'll do the same.

Young Hellsguard: ...Ain't seen you around before. Takes a certain kind of [man/woman] to walk into a place like this uninvited. 
What will you say? I will go whither the wild rose blooms. / One with courage, I suppose. / Times are tough, but so am I. ->  One with courage, I suppose. 
Young Hellsguard: ...Courage, you say? Well, that's in short supply these days. Better to keep your head down and go along to survive. Call me a coward too, if you like, 'cause I'll not speak on it more - at least not here. Outside Radiata, behind those barricades over yonder, on the other hand...

Lyse: Hey. Was that who I think it was? Well, that's a relief - or a trap. Either way, I'll find Alphinaud and Alisaie. I'll meet you there.

Meet with the contact outside Radiata

Young Hellsguard: Not followed, were you? Good. That all of you, is it? Let's get to it, then. Name yourselves.
Alphinaud: We are the Scions of the Seventh Dawn. Friends of Marshal Tarupin.
Stark Woad: Name's Stark. Stark Woad. The rest you know, or we wouldn't be here. This is about Specula Imperatoris and the cannon, isn't it?
Alphinaud: Just so. Can you tell us what happened?
Stark Woad: Aye. I overheard soldiers talking while working in the mes.s The ceruleum pipeline fueling the cannon was destroyed by an unidentified male insurgent, they said.
Alphinaud: One man single-handedly disabled the cannon? That beggars belief!
Stark Woad: Nevertheless, that's what they said. It took a while, but they've finally put the fires out, and the engineers have been working day and night to repair it. Wish I could tell you more, but the incident had everyone jumping at shadow and afraid to say much more. To make matters worse, the Ala Mhigan help have been sent home indefinitely.
Lyse: So the cannon could already be fully operational... We need to sneak inside Castrum Abania to ensure the cannon is no longer a threat to our troops. Can you help us?
Stark Woad: Aye, that much I can do. I've pieced together a map of the interior over the years, and I know for a fact that there are multiple points of entry.
Alphinaud: Impressive...If we split into several groups, that may improve our odds of reaching the fire control center. We may be few in number, but I have faith that we can see this through!
