Dialogue
Accepting the Quest
Faillicie: I seek a certain adventurer for a cause most just. Are you not [Forename]? Ha! I thought you had the right aspect! Faillicie: 'Twas you who played the thief in the night at the Stone Vigil! The dragons guard their keep jealously, it's said, yet you slipped unseen into the cloudy fortress... Faillicie: 'Twill not be their keep for much longer, however. The forces of Ishgard amass by the Sea of Clouds. Now, this is for your ears only, but the blockade is but a prelude to an attack. Faillicie: Lord Drillemont commands the siege, and he would have your counsel. I am but one of many who seek you at his behest. Faillicie: You must be a woman/man of rare quality. The proud knights of Durendaire are not accustomed to taking, let alone seeking, outside help. Faillicie: Ishgard's is the cradle-air I breathed, and I yearn to see the Stone Vigil reclaimed from the Dravanian Horde. Will you not go to Whitebrim Front and aid Lord Drillemont? (Optional) Faillicie: Lord Drillemont awaits you at Whitebrim Front. The Stone Vigil shall be stormed, with or without you—but by the salt and the snow, the knights will bleed for the lack of your aid.
Speaking with Drillemont
Drillemont: [Forename] [Surname]. You have come to lend us your strength? House Durendaire is in your debt. Drillemont: You will rejoice with us to know that the battle for the Stone Vigil has finally begun. The first wave has already breached the outer defenses and entered the keep. Drillemont: As depraved a fow as the Dravanian are, they have a certain...cunning. The place teems with unbelievers who gladly embrace death merely to deny us a fulm of advance. We came to slay dogs and are bled by nits. Drillemont: There are graver matters still. After our first wave stormed the keep, the enemy sealed the breach behind them. The Vigil Headgate is now a welter of molten iron and stones sharp as a headsman's axe. We can no longer send reinforcements by land. Drillemont: The danger is great, but we must go by air. I shall lead the second wave, and would have you join your strength to ours. Drillemont: Ser Nathelain awaits you near the Stone Vigil itself. I shall join you as soon as I have seen to the airships.
Speaking with Nathelain
Nathelain: Hail, [Forename]! Lord Drillemont's sent word. The airship will not be long in coming, and then...then we charge! Nathelain: All Whitebrim Front knows your name. [Forename] [Surname], who penetrated the Stone Vigil's defenses! Why, to this very day I remember the cheer that rang out when we'd heard you'd laid Isgebind low. Your presence here is tonic—pure tonic—for the troops. Nathelain: Too long have the damned dragons desecrated our keep. Halone willing, the Stone Vigil shall return to Ishgard before this day is out!
Reporting to Drillemont
Drillemont: [Forename], I am glad to see you safely returned. By the grace of the Fury and the aid you have given us, we have taken back what is ours. Drillemont: Yet surely you saw what the Dravanians left in their wake: a ruin. A blood-crusted eye in need of much physicking before it can resume watch over the dragons... Drillemont: It will be long and hard work to rebuild the Stone Vigil. Long and hard. Drillemont: One battle ends, another begins. Our war is a holy one, and there is no rest for the pious, except in the arms of the Fury Herself. Drillemont: Never shall be depleted the ranks of Ishgard's glorious dead. Never shall the prayers of the righteous be in vain. The dragons will perish—this I swear, by swords whole and broken.
