Dialogue > Conversations with Gash

{--- Gash asks for a ride across the Desert ---}

Crossing the Garil Desert

{Skiad Ops Gash} Cross the desert underground...
{Skiad Ops Gash} That's what we do.
{Skiad Ops Gash} All the monsters indigenous to
{Skiad Ops Gash} the desert live on the surface.
{Edge} Underground? How?
{Skiad Ops Gash} There are many ways.
{Skiad Ops Gash} Worm tunnels, subterranean
{Skiad Ops Gash} waterways...
{Skiad Ops Gash} We just have to search.

Crossing the Garil Desert

{Skiad Ops Gash} Anyway, we'd better find an
{Skiad Ops Gash} underground passage.

About the Oasis

{Skiad Ops Gash} Most of the ruins that we've
{Skiad Ops Gash} seen have a body of water nearby.
{Skiad Ops Gash} Look for something like an oasis
{Skiad Ops Gash} If we can find some way to
{Skiad Ops Gash} drain the water...
{Skiad Ops Gash} We can use the underground
{Skiad Ops Gash} streams as passageways.

About the Oasis

{Skiad Ops Gash} If we flush the water out of an
{Skiad Ops Gash} oasis, we can travel underground.

About the Worm Tunnels

{Skiad Ops Gash} The monsters in the deserts are
{Skiad Ops Gash} very dangerous...
{Skiad Ops Gash} Except for the worms.
{Skiad Ops Gash} They won't attack us, and they can
{Skiad Ops Gash} open passageways to get underground.
{Edge} How do they do that?
{Skiad Ops Gash} They circle around the desert, and
{Skiad Ops Gash} dig tunnels. We can use their
{Skiad Ops Gash} tunnels to travel underground.

About the Worm Tunnels

{Skiad Ops Gash} They're passages dug by the worms.
{Skiad Ops Gash} They are all over the desert.

About the Underground Ruins

{Skiad Ops Gash} They are
{Skiad Ops Gash} the remains of ancient ruins.
{Skiad Ops Gash} We can use them
{Skiad Ops Gash} to avoid the monsters.
{Edge} Ruins? Aren't they dangerous?
{Skiad Ops Gash} Not at all.
{Skiad Ops Gash} Only the entrances above the ground
{Skiad Ops Gash} still have any life left in them.

About the Underground Ruins

{Skiad Ops Gash} If we can find an entrance to any of
{Skiad Ops Gash} the empty caves, we should be able
{Skiad Ops Gash} to get through this desert safely.

About Craymen

{Skiad Ops Gash} That man you're after... Craymen.
{Skiad Ops Gash} You said he commands
{Skiad Ops Gash} the Black Fleet, right?
{Edge} What do you know about them!?
{Skiad Ops Gash} That fleet has plagued
{Skiad Ops Gash} the seekers for a long time.
{Skiad Ops Gash} We know they've been very
{Skiad Ops Gash} interested in those ruins.
{Skiad Ops Gash} If he's the commander of that fleet,
{Skiad Ops Gash} I hope you kill him slowly.

About Craymen

{Skiad Ops Gash} He's the commander of the Empire's
{Skiad Ops Gash} special fleet that has
{Skiad Ops Gash} slaughtered countless seekrs.

About the Empire

{Skiad Ops Gash} It is a nation built on fear.
{Skiad Ops Gash} They've amassed an enormous fleet
{Skiad Ops Gash} created with the ancient technologies.
{Skiad Ops Gash} At first, they
{Skiad Ops Gash} defended us from the monsters, but
{Skiad Ops Gash} they soon turned
{Skiad Ops Gash} their attention to world domination.
{Skiad Ops Gash} Many nations
{Skiad Ops Gash} have already fallen to the Empire.

About the Empire

{Skiad Ops Gash} Recently, there have been rumors
{Skiad Ops Gash} of a rebellion
{Skiad Ops Gash} within the Empire.

About the Dragon

{Skiad Ops Gash} In some regions,
{Skiad Ops Gash} dragons are called
{Skiad Ops Gash} the Messengers of the Gods.
{Skiad Ops Gash} But the Empire fears them.
{Edge} Why?
{Skiad Ops Gash} Dragons
{Skiad Ops Gash} have attacked the Empire before.
{Skiad Ops Gash} It is believed
{Skiad Ops Gash} that the Capital was leveled by
{Skiad Ops Gash} a lone dragon long ago.

About the Dragon

{Skiad Ops Gash} Be careful who sees your dragon.
{Skiad Ops Gash} If the Empire finds out,
{Skiad Ops Gash} they will come after you.

About the Ancient Age

{Skiad Ops Gash} Ancient Age...
{Skiad Ops Gash} In the bordering nations,
{Skiad Ops Gash} they call it the Age of the Gods.
{Skiad Ops Gash} I don't know if I agree with them.
{Skiad Ops Gash} Think about it for a second.
{Skiad Ops Gash} The monsters and weapons of
{Skiad Ops Gash} the Empire were all created by
{Skiad Ops Gash} the ancient ones. Would any God
{Skiad Ops Gash} bring such horrors to its people?

About the Ancient Age

{Skiad Ops Gash} It was a time when mortals
{Skiad Ops Gash} controlled god-like powers.

About the Ruins

{Edge} I was only a guard on the
{Edge} excavation site, so I don't
{Edge} know much about the ruins.
{Skiad Ops Gash} The Empire underestimates the danger
{Skiad Ops Gash} of what they're digging up.
{Skiad Ops Gash} They could awaken a great evil
{Skiad Ops Gash} that could destroy us all.
{Edge} What are you talking about?
{Skiad Ops Gash} If the ruins reactivate, who
{Skiad Ops Gash} knows what horrors will be
{Skiad Ops Gash} unleashed upon us.
{Skiad Ops Gash} Their power could obliterate a nation.

About the Ruins

{Skiad Ops Gash} Huge buildings... no, they're actually
{Skiad Ops Gash} ancient machines...
{Skiad Ops Gash} Who knows why they were created?
{Skiad Ops Gash} To us, they're treasure troves.

About the Monsters

{Skiad Ops Gash} They're all
{Skiad Ops Gash} that's left of the Ancient Age.
{Skiad Ops Gash} They were scattered
{Skiad Ops Gash} throughout the world.
{Skiad Ops Gash} They may regroup in the forest,
{Skiad Ops Gash} near the ruins.
{Edge} Why are they attacking humans?
{Skiad Ops Gash} Perhaps they were ancient weapons,
{Skiad Ops Gash} or maybe our wars
{Skiad Ops Gash} angered them.

About the Monsters

{Skiad Ops Gash} Those monsters are from the
{Skiad Ops Gash} Ancient Age.
{Skiad Ops Gash} For some reason,
{Skiad Ops Gash} they now thirst for human blood.

About the Seekers

{Edge} Just who are the seekers?
{Skiad Ops Gash} Well, you can just call us thieves
{Skiad Ops Gash} if you don't mind offending us.
{Edge} I apologize for that incident
{Edge} when we first met.
{Edge} My captain told me you were thieves.
{Skiad Ops Gash} It's all right, kid.
{Skiad Ops Gash} We're outcasts, I'll admit that.
{Skiad Ops Gash} They say the Gods will punish us
{Skiad Ops Gash} for disturbing their sacred ruins.
{Skiad Ops Gash} That is far from the truth, you know.
{Edge} What?
{Skiad Ops Gash} Almost everyone believes that the
{Skiad Ops Gash} Ancient Age was the age of
{Skiad Ops Gash} the Gods. If that were true,
{Skiad Ops Gash} then our own Gods are more
{Skiad Ops Gash} frightening than the Empire.

About the Seekers

{Skiad Ops Gash} Well,
{Skiad Ops Gash} I don't really care what
{Skiad Ops Gash} the world thinks of us.
{Skiad Ops Gash} We do what we must...

{--- Edge is rescued from the Empire by Gash ---}

About Craymen

{Edge} Craymen is looking for the Tower.
{Skiad Ops Gash} Tower?
{Edge} The commander of the Imperial
{Edge} forces told me that the Tower
{Edge} was responsible for the fall
{Edge} of the Ancient Age.
{Skiad Ops Gash} Craymen wants the most devastating
{Skiad Ops Gash} weapon this world has ever seen.
{Skiad Ops Gash} No wonder they're so ruthless.

About Craymen

{Edge} The Tower houses
{Edge} unimaginable destructive power.
{Edge} I think that's what Craymen wants.

About the Empire

{Edge} The Empire wants the dragon too.
{Edge} I wonder why?
{Skiad Ops Gash} To battle against the Black Fleet.
{Skiad Ops Gash} They've started digging for
{Skiad Ops Gash} another dragon too, you know.
{Edge} Yeah, I've fought against them once.
{Edge} That girl was riding the dragon.
{Skiad Ops Gash} You mean that girl you
{Skiad Ops Gash} saw at the excavation site?
{Skiad Ops Gash} I wonder who she is?

About the Empire

{Skiad Ops Gash} They must really want that
{Skiad Ops Gash} Black Fleet destroyed.
