• A friend? Oh, do you mean Lord Faren?
• Assuredly. Why, he's been my stalwart companion in all kinds of adventures!
• I know he seems slicker than a Delavan eel, but he's got a good heart.
• I might have been too harsh with the gentleman. Please, will you give him my regards?
• I'll do that right now.
• Truly? So, he did bravely follow you into the bandit cave as he claims? Remarkable. Would you be so kind as to give him my regards?
• I wonder. Your friend Faren is a dashing fellow, but I have heard such stories about him...
• Mere conjecture, I'm sure. Good day.
• I promise I've got something truly epic to tell you! Just speak with Baroness Jasmina first—please? She's right over there!
• Very well.
• I saw it—Kormir strike me if she didn't look impressed! You're a true friend!
• Right, right. Now tell me that important thing, and give me the short version.
• Think nothing of it. So what was it you wanted to tell me?
• Recall our escapade in the bandit cave, and your suspicion that a minister might be pulling their strings? You're in luck, because I've confirmed said suspicion.
• How did you manage that?
• I believe it's Minister Zamon! I was out with a, ah, lady friend, and I saw him leaving the woods near Gibson Portage. Alone! And most suspiciously!
• Those woods are infested with ruffians and criminals. You're certain he was alone?
• Certain enough to testify! He was dressed for a dinner party and sauntering through the woods like he was at a ball. Might that help your investigation?
• It definitely does. Thanks, Faren. I'll find you later.
• I'm confident, old friend, that you'll see the dog Zamon get his comeuppance!
• Indeed, he will.
• Oh, hello. I don't believe I've had the pleasure. I am Lady Madeline Zamon.
• I believe you were at Lord Faren's party, were you not?
• Most excellent to meet you. I presume you are Minister Zamon's sister?
• Pardon me a moment—I must depart.
• Yes, I was! A delightful gala. Before the bandits, of course. I do not get a chance to attend many events like that...or this, come to think of it. It's a little overwhelming for me.
• Are you new to the city?
• Not specifically. My brother Julius and I were born here, but I've moved to the countryside to aid Mother. Do you know the Zamon estate?
• Minister Julius Zamon is your brother? You must be proud of him.
• Yes, but I wish that...ah, forgive me. I shan't burden you with my worries. Our mother is in poor health and I am concerned for her.
• Not to be crass, but I heard tell you and he had a fight earlier. May I ask why?
• It sounds as if your relationship is a little strained.
• I'm sorry to tell you this, but I have reason to believe your brother is a traitor.
• Gods, I knew it would come to this! He was visiting mother when a strange man came by. Julius gave him some papers, but he wouldn't say what they were, even when I asked.
• Do go on.
• It got worse. Julius left more packages at our mother's house for suspicious characters to pick up. I came here to confront him, but he refused to discuss it and stormed off.
• Would you be willing to testify on this matter at a trial?
• A trial? Oh, Julius, what have you done? May Kormir guide and Dwayna protect me—yes, I will testify. I cannot allow Julius to dishonor the family, or disrupt Mother any further.
• Thank you, my lady. You are doing a great service to all Divinity's Reach.
• Did that cretinous cook tell you that? It's sheer gossip, nothing more! Why, I should—I'm sorry. Please ignore that outburst. I fear I need a moment to collect my thoughts.
• I apologize, Lady. I'll talk to you later.
• A traitor? That can't be. He wouldn't...no. I'd like to believe he wouldn't, but...
• I beg you, Lady, tell me what you know. Lives could be at stake!
• I heard you and he had a fight earlier. Do you mind telling me what that was about?
• Is there something you're not telling me?
• Pardon me a moment. I must depart.
• Lives? What about my mother's life? What if she found out her only son was a traitor? What then?
• We must consider the greater good, my lady.
• I think she would be proud her daughter helped to save lives.
• Why, yes. He and I were born here, but while he does business with the Ministry, I moved to the countryside to aid mother.
