- I'd know. I serve the law, and the law demands your death.
- No, Emer: you demand it. Simply walk away and this ends now.
- It's far too late for that. The legions will have justice, for the good of true soldiers everywhere. I'll die before I turn my back on that.
- I salute your narrow-minded dedication, but I'm setting Vallus free. And I'll die before I let you take him back.
- I didn't want it to end like this. Emer was a great soldier, once.
- But too rigid to make a great leader. She'll be missed on the battlefield...but she made her choice, just like you made yours and I made mine.
- You'd better get going. We drew a lot more attention than I wanted. More guards will be here soon.
- I'm bad at good-byes, so I'll make it quick. I'll remember that you gave me this chance. Nobody else would have.
- I'm honored to be your sire, and to salute you as legionnaire. Once things settle down, I'll contact you—discreetly.
- I'll keep an eye out for you. Good-bye, Vallus...father. And good luck.
- I'm here to turn myself in. I helped the prisoner Vallus Smokemane escape from—
- Save it. I saw. And you'd be dead or in chains right now if I hadn't dug deeper into the matter.
- Emer's initial report omitted a lot of important details...which means I sent you into a situation neither of us fully understood.
- But you adapted. You took the initiative and got results. Ultimately you were there and I wasn't, so I'm trusting your judgment was sound.
- That's...I didn't...thank you, sir. It wasn't a choice I made lightly, but Vallus was—
- I still don't like deserters—I have my reasons—but I am starting to understand "extenuating circumstances."
- We've still got work to do, and I'm counting on your help. Dismissed!
- Rytlock
- Forktail didn't murder you? I hope that means you stopped the Flame Legion. Where's my prisoner?
- In Hero's Canton. We couldn't have done this without his help. I recommend we reduce his sentence to time already served.
- Forget it. Your sire's sentence is for life. I'll release him when he's dead, not before.
- That's not your call. If Forktail saved the tribunes and the imperator, I want to hear about it.
- Forktail risked his life for the citadel. We owe our success to him. And he's no longer a threat. I'd stake my life on it.
- Good enough. I authorize Forktail's release. You can give him the good news yourself, if you like. See to it, Seneca.
- I said "see to it," Seneca. Or you'll make me very angry. It's not easy to stand up for a betrayer. I know.
- You've proven your loyalty and your value to the Citadel once again, Legionnaire. I've got big plans for you. When they're ready, I'll send for you.
- Vallus Smokemane, mesmer of the Mane warband: you disobeyed direct orders. You stole from the High Legions. You deserted your comrades in the field.
- For these crimes, you are sentenced to die in this arena. I stand for the legions and will deliver their judgment.
- I did what I did for my warband. I chose a soldier's life over legion politics. I'd do it again.
- I respect your loyalty, but your ultimate duty is to the legions. Now, fight with honor like the soldier you are, and may we meet again in the Mists.
- Thank you, Legionnaire. Win or lose, live or die, I'm proud to be your sire.
- It's over, Tribune. Vallus Smokemane has been punished according to High Legion law.
- A hard job, but one you did well.
- Simply protecting the chain of command, sir. History shows it's our key to victory. Without it, we tear each other apart.
- Vallus let loyalty blind him to right action. In the attempts to save one soldier, he endangered many more of us.
- Yes. Some people will never understand that's what being a soldier means. But you get it.
- Now get your R&R. I'll be sure to call on you again when I've got a complicated situation that needs a swift solution.
- Look, Clement. Your own darling cub has returned to see you safely returned to your cell.
- Prisoner
- Reporting as ordered, Imperator. Forktail is back in a cage, where he belongs. Here's the legionnaire who discovered the Flame Legion's plot.
- It's not over yet, sir. Flarekin and his shamans are planning to attack these chambers with a deadly new magic.
- Let them. The day we run from the Flame Legion is the day we start forging wind-up toys instead of siege engines.
- We'll meet them head-on. Fight beside me, Legionnaire. You've earned it.
- You head through the door. I'll seal this little nightmare factory.
- If I don't see you on the other side, you have my thanks. For everything.
- I can't talk now, but I'll be back.
- Smodur the Unflinching
- Well done, everyone. The Flame Legion may have false gods, but they don't have a prayer.
- I'll add another commendation to your record, Legionnaire. It would've been bad here without your warning.
- It's an honor to protect the Black Citadel. And I'm glad to know my sire won't die a traitor.
