A Warden’s Best Friend
Turlum
Rook finds Davrin in his room.
Assan: (Unhappy squawk)
Davrin: What? You’re hungry? I found a yam in the kitchen.
Assan: (Squawk)
Davrin: Stubborn just means you’ll starve.
Rook: Trouble settling in?
Davrin: Doing the best I can. My job was to keep the griffons safe, not fix their dinner.
Rook: I meant Assan.
Davrin: Oh. I guess we’re both adjusting.
Dialogue options:
- Investigate: What’s the griffons’ history? [1]
- Investigate: Where does Assan come from? [2]
- He’s welcome here. [3]
+ Davrin Approves - He’s had it rough. [4]
- Make sure he behaves. [5]
1 - Investigate: What’s the griffons’ history?
Rook: I’ve always wondered about our history with griffons. Their emblem is everywhere.
Davrin: I could swear Assan knows it, too. Gives him a big head.
Assan: (Squawk)
Rook: What’s the history between Grey Wardens and griffons?
Davrin: Back in the day, Grey Wardens raised them as aerial cavalry. When a Blight got going, Wardens rode them into battle. Eventually, war took its toll. They died out.
2 - Investigate: Where does Assan come from?
| Grey Warden Rook | Non-Grey Warden Rook |
|---|---|
| Rook: How did Weisshaupt find Assan and the others?Davrin: I only got involved in this a little while ago. Most Wardens are still in the dark. | Rook: Then where did Assan and the others come from? |
Davrin: Way I heard it, someone found a journal a few years back that mentioned a secret clutch of eggs. They’d been hidden for centuries, protected by a ward. Started hatching, and out came thirteen talkative griffons. Now down to just one.
3 - He’s welcome here.
Rook: Well, a confused griffon should fit right in around here.
Davrin: Appreciate it. There’s no training manual for them anymore.
Rook: I guess we’ll figure it out together.
Assan: (Happy squawk)
Davrin: Griffons don’t trust easily. Lancit and Remi had to work to win them over.
4 - He’s had it rough.
Rook: Even for a griffon, it has to be hard losing your brothers and sisters.
Davrin: They’re a talkative bunch. Always squawking at each other. Maybe it means something?
Assan: (Squawk)
Davrin: Lancit and Remi would know what to do.
5 - Make sure he behaves.
Rook: As long he doesn’t get out of hand.
Davrin: No promises.
Assan: (Squawk)
Davrin: Griffons are a stubborn bunch. Lancit and Remi were the real experts.
6 - Scene continues.
Return to previous tree.Davrin: They said a Warden and griffon have to move as one, think as one. They called it “turlum.” A sort of unity. But now they’re both dead.
Rook: Why’d the Gloom Howler attack the aerie?
Davrin: I intend to find out. First it stalks Wardens, now it’s after the griffons.
Dialogue options:
- Affable: We’ll find them. [7]
- Sarcastic: We understand trouble. [8]
- Stoic: We’ve seen worse. [9]
- Sad: They deserve better. [10]
7 - Affable: We’ll find them.
Rook: Don’t worry—you and I have a deal. We’ll find them.
Davrin: Appreciate that. Though it sounds like you’ve got your hands full ‘round here.
Rook: Just a tad.
8 - Sarcastic: We understand trouble.
Rook: Trouble’s our specialty. No shortage of it around here.
Davrin: I’m getting that.
9 - Stoic: We’ve seen worse.
Rook: It’s not the worst thing we’ve fought.
10 - Sad: They deserve better.
Rook: Doesn’t seem right that they’d go extinct twice.
Davrin: Not if I have anything to say about it. You sure you’ll have time to help? You’ve got a lot on your plate.
11 - Scene continues.
Return to previous tree.Davrin: Elgar’nan and Ghilan’nain. Hard to believe.
| Elf Rook | Non-Elf Rook: |
|---|---|
| Rook: Our very own elven gods are ending the world.Davrin: That’ll endear us to the rest of Thedas. | Rook: Can’t be easy hearing that your own gods are ending the world.Davrin: Elves have enough trouble. Don’t need this on our heads, too. |
Davrin: But I have to say—killing a monster is one thing… Taking down the goddess of all monsters… and the god of vengeance while you’re at it…?
Dialogue options:
- Sarcastic: It isn’t so bad. [12]
- Stoic: It’s us or them. [13]
+ Davrin Approves - Afraid: It scares me. [14]
12 - Sarcastic: It isn’t so bad.
Rook: I know. Our problem around here is we think too small.
Davrin: Okay, then. Good to know the boss can laugh about it.
Rook: Not really. But dwelling on things won’t help.
13 - Stoic: It’s us or them.
Rook: Every life in Thedas depends on it.
Davrin: Fair enough. Always good to know where the boss stands.
Rook: Pretty much at the world not ending.
Davrin: I can get behind that.
14 - Afraid: It scares me.
Rook: I’m not blind. It keeps me awake at night.
Davrin: Just making sure you know what you’re in for.
Rook: We’re all in for it.
Davrin: Well, I’ve been in a staring contest with death most my life. Haven’t blinked yet.
15 - Scene continues.
Return to previous tree.Assan: (Hungry squawk)
Davrin: What? I told you—it’s yams or nothing.
Assan: (Unhappy squawk)
Rook: Or maybe you need a new menu?
How to Train a Griffon
Parent is a Scary Word
Rook walks into Davrin’s room.
Rook: It looks like our boy Assan is feeling his oats. Or… whatever griffons feel.
Davrin: He’s getting the hang of it. When he listens.
| Pre-Weisshaupt | Post-Weisshaupt |
|---|---|
| Rook: He seems to be able to handle himself so far.Assan: (Proud squawk)Davrin: You got lucky the Gloom Howler didn’t tear you to pieces, boy. You wait for my command, we attack together—then we can kill stuff like that. | Rook: He didn’t back down at Weisshaupt.Davrin: Can’t tell if he’s brave or doesn’t know any better.Rook: There’s a difference?Davrin: I don’t want to throw him into the fire like that. |
Rook: At least he’s learning.
Davrin: The instincts kick in. Griffons see darkspawn, and it’s a fight to the death. Like wolves hunting deer. Just need to corral it.
Dialogue options:
- Affable: He looks so tame. [1]
- Sarcastic: Glad I’m not a deer. [2]
- Stoic: He’s a perfect Grey Warden. [3]
+ Davrin Approves - Afraid: Unless he loses. [4]
1 - Affable: He looks so tame.
Rook: You’d never know it to look at him. Seems friendly enough.
Davrin: As long as he likes you.
Rook: So what I’m hearing, Assan, is… gingerwort truffles for life?
Assan: (Happy squawk)
2 - Sarcastic: Glad I’m not a deer.
Rook: Never be a deer. Good to know.
Davrin: He’d probably leave them alone.
Rook: “Probably?”
Davrin: You and I see a deer. Maybe he sees venison soufflé?
3 - Stoic: He’s a perfect Grey Warden.
Rook: Sounds like the perfect soldier. And he even flies.
Davrin: Aerial cavalry. A full-grown griffon is a force of nature.
4 - Afraid: Unless he loses.
Rook: Deer don’t bite back. Darkspawn do.
Davrin: But darkspawn can’t fly.
5 - Scene continues.
Return to previous tree.Davrin: Every muscle in him—every talon, every feather—honed into a killing machine. Assan’s ancestors took on Archdemons.
Asssan: (Proud squawk)
Rook: Like his name says: he’s an “arrow”.
Davrin: Half-lion, half-eagle, with the instincts of both. Griffons will always be hunters.
Rook: Just like his daddy, Davrin.
Davrin: Heh. I suppose we are our nature.
Rook: Not sure about that?
| Pre-Weisshaupt | Post-Weisshaupt |
|---|---|
| Davrin: Most my life I’ve hunted the darker things in the world. But caring for a griffon? What do I know about that? Yet here I am.Rook: That’s not so bad, is it?Davrin: Not the path I expected. Makes me wonder. About Assan. His brothers and sisters. Still young. Pure. | Davrin: I was, right up until we killed Ghilan’nain’s Archdemon. Then my life’s purpose vanished, and I have to find a new one. Who knew it’d be griffons?Rook: That’s a good thing, isn’t it?Davrin: I want it to be. Can’t help but wonder about him, about his brothers and sisters. Still young. Pure. |
Rook: You’re worried?
Davrin: I’m responsible for the future of every griffon alive. I want it to be a good one.
| Pre-Weisshaupt | Post-Weisshaupt |
|---|---|
| Davrin: These animals live to fight—but I wonder if there’s another path for them? | These animals live to fight—but I wonder if there’s another purpose for them, too? |
Dialogue options:
6 - Don’t go against their nature.
Rook: I don’t know. That’s like asking a fish to crawl on land. It might work at first, but it’s not going to end well.
Davrin: Fair point. Griffons are darkspawn hunters at heart.
Rook: This one sure takes after his dad.
7 - Give him time.
Rook: It’s still early. Assan’s just a kid. Let him test the waters, see what shakes loose.
Davrin: You mean like a parent.
Rook: Yep.
8 - There is for everyone.
Rook: I’d like to think everyone can find a new path. Even griffons.
Davrin: Just wish I knew what it was.
Rook: Doesn’t every good parent?
9 - Scene continues.
Return to previous tree.Davrin: “Parent’s” a scary word. I’m supposed to be his bodyguard.
Rook: What do you think you’ve been doing this whole time?
Davrin: Trying to ignore it. If I get myself killed by a hurlock, that’s on me. If it’s Assan… I just don’t want to mess it up.
Rook: I think that’s where trust comes in. That “turlum” idea you keep talking about. Trust Assan to find his way. Don’t force things.
Davrin: He’s headstrong.
Assan: (Indignant squawk)
Rook: Good thing you are, too.
Davrin: (Chuckles) Right. Thanks for the chat.
+ Davrin Approves
Monster Carving
Rook walks into Davrin’s room to find him whittling.
Rook: Carving monsters, huh? Didn’t figure you for an artist.
Davrin: This? It’s by necessity. If you know your enemy, their weak spots, maybe you live another day.
Dialogue options:
1 - Affable: Impressive.
Rook: You’ve got a flair for the dramatic.
Davrin: Nothing scarier than the real thing.
Rook: What will you do with it?
2 - Sarcastic: Safe from tiny monsters.
Rook: Well, when the army of miniature monsters invade, we’ll know how to beat them.
Davrin: Size is nothing. A rygar can ruin your day with one bite. The poison swells your brain.
Rook: That could explain Solas.
3 - Stoic: I prefer big weapons.
Rook: Or you could just bring along a really big sword.
Davrin: Only if you know what to do with it. You hit a rageling in the flank, you’ll just send him into a frenzy.
Rook: And these will help?
4 - Scene continues.
Return to previous tree.Davrin: Standard bestiaries are always some mage drawing things they’ve never seen, taking the piss out of it. They don’t understand how when the hunt ends, and you come nose to nose with an ogre… someone’s going to die. So I’m making the real monster hunter manual.
Dialogue options:
- Investigate: Who’s it for? [5]
- Flirt (have not flirted before): I like your determination. [6]
- Flirt (flirted before): A hunt should be challenging. [7]
- Affable: I’d read it. [8]
- Sarcastic: Just spell my name right. [9]
- Stoic: I can hunt monsters. [10]
5 - Investigate: Who’s it for?
Rook: Who you doing it for?
Davrin: Balmor, that imbecile in Tevinter. Lecturing on things he doesn’t know about. And Ludrik over in Rivain? Thinks taking a rock wraith down with a lucky shot makes him a champion?
Dialogue options:
11 - Affable: He’s so egotistical.
Rook: Yeah. Ludrik and his ego.
Davrin: You ever met Ludrik?
Rook: Well…
Davrin: Because he’s been dead three hundred years. Living off the legend of one fluke arrow.
Rook: Oh. I just wanted to make you feel better.
Davrin: (Chuckles) My reward is showing these idiots how it’s done.
12 - Sarcastic: Sculpting toys does.
Rook: You’d think he’d know better: it’s sculpting toy monsters that makes you a champion.
Davrin: That’s right. He never understood—You’re a funny one.
Rook: I couldn’t help it.
Davrin: Okay, maybe I’m taking this a little far. But if you say you’re an expert? Show me some expertise.
13 - Stoic: Who cars?
Rook: What do you care? Jealous?
Davrin: ‘Course not. I just think the “experts” should have some actual expertise. Taash could learn a thing or two.
Rook: Ouch.
Davrin: I get it. [She knows/They know] dragons. But what about fighting a sylvan? Or a dartmonger? Don’t tell me I’m using the wrong blade.
6 - Flirt: I like your determination.
Rook: I like your passion.
Davrin: If you’re going to do something, be the best at it.
Rook: Is that just for work, or…
Davrin: In all things.
Rook: Noted. So where’s the Gloom Howler in all this?
7 - Flirt: A hunt should be challenging.
Rook: I like a hunt with some challenge to it.
Davrin: What’s your quarry?
Rook: I’m thinking… a Grey Warden. Maybe an elf. Maybe both. I can’t decide.
Davrin: That too much to handle?
Rook: It’s best if you keep them guessing.
Davrin: Well, you’ll need special bait to lure that sort out. Doesn’t just fall for anything.
Rook: Noted. So where’s the Gloom Howler in all this?
8 - Affable: I’d read it.
Rook: Sounds like a fun read. I’m in.
Davrin: You have to buy it first.
Rook: Where’s the Gloom Howler?
9 - Sarcastic: Just spell my name right.
Rook: Just remember it’s spelled “R-O-O-K.” “The [heroine/hero/one] who took down the gods.”
Davrin: That chapter’s going to be mine.
Rook: Where’s the Gloom Howler?
10 - Stoic: I can hunt monsters.
Rook: You want pictures of monsters? I can provide some corpses.
Davrin: A corpse? Nah. Now, if you pose next to a varterral still breathing down your neck, I’ll think about it.
Rook: Where’s the Gloom Howler?
14 - Scene continues.
Return to previous tree.Davrin: Can’t carve it ‘til I know what it is.
Assan: (Angry squawk)
Davrin: You want a piece of the Howler, boy?
Rook: Is he ready?
Davrin: Was I ready the first time I fought a hurlock?
Rook: Well, you’re still alive…
Davrin: I got my ass handed to me. Broke four ribs and cracked my jaw. Then I got back up and drove a blade through its skull. In this line of work, Assan and I are only as strong as the quarry we hunt.
Dialogue options:
- Go easy on him. [15]
- You learn by doing. [16]
+Davrin Approves - That’ll get you killed. [17]
15 - Go easy on him.
Rook: Maybe, but go easy on him. He’s still getting the hang of things.
Davrin: He runs into an ogre, it won’t care. It’ll eat him for lunch.
Assan: (Excited squawk)
Davrin: I didn’t mean your lunch.
Rook: Too late. You said the magic word.
16 - You learn by doing.
Rook: Makes sense. He’ll learn to fight by fighting.
Davrin: I don’t know another way. Out there in the world, you sink or swim.
Rook: Can a half-lion, half-eagle swim?
Davrin: Don’t know. Assan?
Assan: (Squawk)
Rook: Which half was that?
Davrin: Search me. Both halves share the same stomach.
Rook: Right.
17 - That’ll get you killed.
Rook: It’s also a good way to get yourself killed. You got lucky with that hurlock.
Davrin: Hunting truffles won’t sharpen Assan’s talons.
Rook: It keeps him safe.
Davrin: Til he meets an ogre.
Rook: Right.
18 - Scene continues.
Return to previous tree.Rook: See you ‘round.
Something Wrong
The Wrong Sort
Davrin: (Humming)
Rook: Sorry, didn’t mean to interrupt.
Davrin: Please do. I need to hear an actual voice now and then.
Assan: (Squawk)
Rook: Can’t imagine why.
Davrin: I’m starting to dream that I’m a griffon.
He looks at Assan.
Davrin: (Squawk)
Dialogue options:
1 - Affable: Nice parenting skills.
Rook: Well, you get high marks for effort.
Davrin: He’s toying with me.
2 - Sarcastic: Dream big.
Rook: Keep dreaming. It’s good to have goals in life.
Davrin: The real dream is getting him to take a nap.
3 - Stoic: Don’t be rude, Assan.
Rook: Assan, it’s bad manners to not answer someone.
4 - Scene continues.
Return to previous tree.Davrin: Right. So what brings you by?
Origin dependent dialogue:
Rook: Nice to have a fellow Warden on the team. Our paths may not have crossed at Weisshaupt, but we have one experience in common…
Davrin: Ah, the Joining.
Rook: The moment they handed us a chalice with Archdemon blood…
Davrin: And the moment we took a sip…
Rook: What were we thinking?
Davrin: (Laughs) My head was exploding. You tell me.
Dialogue options:
- Affable: “It’s an honor.” [5]
- Sarcastic: “I thought this was ale?” [6]
- Stoic: “This is too easy.” [7]
- Afraid: “I’m dead and don’t know it.” [8]
- Angry: “Are you insane?” [9]
5 - Affable: “It’s an honor.”
Rook: It was nasty, but it was an honor. I was thinking, “I’ll carry the Warden standard with pride.”
Davrin: I was thinking that I might puke all over the standard.
Rook: An exemplary Warden in the making.
6 - Sarcastic: “I thought this was ale?”
Rook: I was thinking, “Wait… I thought this was ale?”
Davrin: Guess somebody wasn’t paying attention in class.
Rook: I thought the Joining was some prank they pulled on new recruits.
7 - Stoic: “This is too easy.”
Rook: I was thinking, “This is too easy. When does it get hard?”
Davrin: I don’t believe that for a second. Archdemon blood taking hold of your brain?
Rook: Hey, this Warden plays to win.
8 - Afraid: “I’m dead and don’t know it.”
Rook: I was thinking, “What’s happening? I’m dead and don’t know it!”
Davrin: I did know it. And I was pissed. If I was going to die drinking, why couldn’t it be hundred-year-old brandy?
Rook: The First Warden drank it all.
9 - Angry: “Are you insane?”
Rook: I was thinking “Are you all insane? I’m supposed to drink that?”
Davrin: What was their answer?
Rook: “Bottoms up, rookie!”
10 - Scene continues.
Return to previous tree.Davrin: Good times.
Rook: Yeah. Though I can’t say I’ve got it all worked out, being a Warden.
Davrin: Feeling lost?
Dialogue options:
- Investigate: Thinking about the Calling. [11]
- Investigate (Pre-Weisshaupt): What about the First Warden? [12]
- Investigate (Post-Weisshaupt): Who’s in charge? [13]
- Investigate: You get to play with griffons. [14]
- Affable: Still learning. [15]
- Sarcastic: It’s nothing new. [16]
- Stoic: The First Warden lost me. [17]
- Sad (Post-Weisshaupt): Weisshaupt was rough. [18]
- Angry (Pre-Weisshaupt): We should be doing more! [19]
11 - Investigate: Thinking about the Calling.
Rook: Sometimes I think about the Calling. You hear stories about other Wardens who’ve left for theirs.
Rook: Here Warden, thanks for your long service. Now enjoy the creepy sound in your head.
Davrin: But don’t worry, that’s just an Archdemon calling out to darkspawn.
Rook: And before you succumb to that nasty blood you drank way back, how about you spend your final days in the Deep Roads?
Davrin: And take a few darkspawn out while you’re at it.
Rook: Nice knowing you!
Davrin: (Laughs) Can’t imagine why you’d be feeling lost.
12 - Investigate: What about the First Warden?
Rook: What’s the problem with our illustrious leader? Is the First Warden always a pain, or is it me?
Davrin: A bit of both. You know he’s all about discipline.
Rook: And I’m not?
Davrin: Well…
Rook: Okay, so maybe I like to keep things loose.
Davrin: And the First Warden wants everything lashed down tight. I can see why you might feel a little lost.
13 - Investigate: Who’s in charge?
Rook: Who runs the show now?
Davrin: Well, Evka came through at Weisshaupt.
Rook: Yeah. I wouldn’t mind her calling the shots.
Davrin: We could use some fresh blood at the top. Things got too rigid.
Rook: Just hope they have the strength to rebuild.
Davrin: I can understand you might feel a little lost.
14 - Investigate: You get to play with griffons.
Rook: Well, I find out we’ve secretly raised griffons this whole time, and you get to play with them. How did I miss that meeting?
Davrin: Nothing personal. I only got called in when the Gloom Howler showed up.
15 - Affable: Still learning.
Rook: Nothing like that. Just trying to learn the ropes.
Davrin: I’m not sure anyone’s really figured it out. What Wardens do for a living—it’s damned weird.
16 - Sarcastic: It’s nothing new.
Rook: I can’t say I’ve ever been found.
Davrin: (Laughs) Wouldn’t be a Grey Warden if you were. We’re all looking for somewhere to fit in.
17 - Stoic: The First Warden lost me.
| Pre-Weisshaupt | Post-Weisshaupt |
|---|---|
| Rook: More like our esteemed First Warden is an impossible ass.Davrin: Let him be. You and I will sort this ourselves. | Rook: Feeling let down. If the First Warden had just listened in the beginning…Davrin: We still did the Wardens proud, all things considered. |
18 - Sad: Weisshaupt was rough.
Rook: Isn’t every Warden a little lost now? Weisshaupt’s gone. All we’ve known for a thousand years is out the window.
Davrin: You and I are still in the fight.
19 - Angry: We should be doing more!
Rook: The biggest fight we’ve ever seen is headed our way and the Grey Wardens are on the sidelines.
Davrin: You and I are in the thick of it.
20 - Scene continues.
Return to previous tree.Rook: Not exactly the army of legend.
Davrin: Legend in the making. You go to war with the army you have.
| Pre-Weisshaupt | Post-Weisshaupt |
|---|---|
| Davrin: Weisshaupt will come through. | Davrin: Evka. Antoine. There’s still good Wardens left in the world. |
Davrin: Along with a very noisy griffon who’ll squawk the enemy to death.
Rook: No armor can withstand that.
Assan: (Shrieking squawk)
Davrin: Don’t encourage him.
Rook: Won’t happen again. See you two around.
Rook: Just curious, really. Wondering what it’s like being a Grey Warden. They’ve always been these legendary warriors living apart from the world.
Davrin: Don’t know about that. I spend time with people who were bad right up ‘til they took their vow.
Rook: How so?
| Pre-Weisshaupt | Post-Weisshaupt |
|---|---|
| Davrin: Weisshaupt is the last stop for the wrong sort. | Davrin: Weisshaupt was the last stop for the wrong sort. |
Davrin: If you’re facing prison or worse, you can always join the Grey Wardens and take your chances with the blight.
Dialogue options:
- Investigate (Pre-Weisshaupt): Why is the First Warden Angry? [5]
- Investigate: Who are the wrong sort? [6]
- Investigate (Pre-Weisshaupt): Tell me About Weisshaupt. [7]
- Flirt: You’re not like that. [8]
- I’d join the Wardens. [9]
- I prefer prison. [10]
5 - Investigate: Why is the First Warden Angry?
Rook: Has your First Warden always been, well…
Davrin: A stubborn bastard?
Rook: One way of putting it.
Davrin: He means well, in his own way. He’s old-fashioned. Tradition is everything. Keeps us disciplined. We never deviate from it.
Rook: He’ll have to. Elgar’nan and Ghilan’nain won’t play by his rules.
Davrin: If he even believes in them. The man doesn’t have much imagination. Even the right sort can be the wrong sort.
6 - Investigate: Who are the wrong sort?
Rook: And just how, uh, wrong are the wrong sort?
Davrin: Thieves, brigands, pirates, and the odd murderer now and then.
Rook: Sounds fun right up to the murdering.
Davrin: At least now they’re murdering darkspawn.
7 - Investigate: Tell me about Weisshaupt.
Rook: I’ve heard about Weisshaupt. Never been there.
Davrin: It’s a giant fortress, and home of the Grey Wardens. It’s been standing for as long as anyone remembers. At least since the First Blight.
Rook: Does it have floating buildings like the Lighthouse?
Davrin: No, but things float up from the latrines.
Rook: Fun bunch you hang out with.
Davrin: The wrong sort have their charm.
8 - Flirt: You’re not like that.
Rook: You don’t seem the wrong sort.
Davrin: No one’s born a hero.
Rook: You’re really selling it.
Davrin: It gets better.
9 - I’d join the Wardens.
| Pre-Weisshaupt | Post-Weisshaupt |
|---|---|
| Rook: A hot meal and warm bed in Weisshaupt is better than rotting in some dungeon.Davrin: It would be. But the food’s always cold and Weisshaupt’s drafty in the winter. | Rook: A hot meal and warm bed is better than rotting in some dungeon.Davrin: You’re giving our cooks too much credit. |
Rook: You’re really selling it.
Davrin: It gets better.
10 - I prefer prison.
Rook: I’d rather take my chances in prison.
Davrin: Eh, it’s not all bad.
Rook: When does it get good?
11 - Scene continues.
Return to previous tree.Davrin: When darkspawn threaten a village. When innocent people are in danger. Then we swoop in, swords held high, armor gleaming, while a hundred faces look to us for salvation. And they all live to see the sunrise because of what we do.
Rook: Okay, now I get it.
Davrin: Best part is the Warden fighting alongside you. Maybe they’ve done some bad things in the past. But after that day, it’s different. There’s some honor in their life where there wasn’t before. Nothing like seeing redemption happen before your eyes.
Dialogue options:
- Everyone deserves that. [12]
+ Davrin Approves - I hope it lasts. [13]
- Criminals are criminals. [14]
12 - Everyone deserves that.
Rook: We all need that chance. Put past sins to right.
Davrin: It makes the Wardens stronger to have people in our ranks who’ve lived in the shadows.
13 - I hope it lasts.
Rook: But do people really change, deep down? Or do they return to their old ways?
Davrin: Maybe we need a bit of both.
14 - Criminals are criminals.
Rook: Once a thief, always a thief.
Davrin: Yeah? Is that experience talking?
Rook: I’m just saying I’d watch my back if I was a Warden.
15 - Scene continues.
Return to previous tree.Davrin: When the storm comes, you don’t want farmers and florists fighting Archdemons. It takes the wrong sort to put the world right.
Rook: Kind of like us, I suppose.

| Davrin: Sure, with about a thousand more years of training and five Blights under our belt.Rook: (Chuckles) Right. I’ll let you get back to it. | Davrin: Minus the skeleton butler.Rook: I don’t know—Manfred the Warden. Has a ring to it.Davrin: (Chuckles) How about we quit while we’re ahead? See you ‘round. |
