Zeldine: "Who, Unstoppable Kon? What are you worried about him for? I know he's deployed to the Final Pursuit. I haven't heard from him, but I'm confident he's fine."

The Refugee

Level 62
Quest Giver Sandstorm Varracht
Briefing Varracht: "Some time ago, a fella named Rake came looking for me. He told me he broke from the Kartels, same as I did. I could see that look in his eyes, that desperate look men get when the Kartels push them too far. So, I helped him out. He wanted to know where the battle had moved to... said he wanted to pay the Kartels back himself. I knew Zeldine wouldn't trust him, so I told him where to look. From the sound of things, the battle has devolved into chaos, and I'm concerned about him. I'd like you to go find Rake, and make sure he's all right."
Objectives Defeat Gizel after meeting Rake on the Final Pursuit on Medium or a higher level.
Dungeon Dialogue *Upon encountering Rabble Rouser Rake*

Rabble Rouser Rake: "Huh... You're late, buddy. Did Berik send you? *You glare at him threateningly* Hey, what's that look for? You don't trust me? I'm undercover! Look, even if you don't trust me, we need to get going."
Upon Completion Varracht: "What? Betrayed? That son of a...! I must be getting soft with age, trusting scum like that. Never again."

  • Goldicon.png 9,288 Gold
  • Firebomb.png Firebomb

Betrayal Repaid

Level 62
Quest Giver Sandstorm Varracht
Briefing Varracht: "Traitors like Rake are why Zeldine still doesn't trust me. I'll never forgive that coward. I'd love to go put a bullet in his head myself, but helping the war effort takes priority. You understand how I feel, right? I would appreciate it if you did bring that rate to justice for me."
Objectives Defeat Traitor Rake on the Final Pursuit on Medium or a higher level.
  • Rabble Rouser Rake: 0/1
Dungeon Dialogue *Upon encountering Rabble Rouser Rake*

<Player>: "I finally caught up to you, you traitor!"

Rabble Rouser Rake: "Me, a traitor? Who are you to judge me? Some low-life mercenary, fighting for rewards. You of all people should understand that survival is more important than principles. Even the Imperial Army knows... They're just as guilty."

<Player>: "What are you talking about? The Imperial Army...?"

Rabble Rouser Rake: "Sure, pretend you don't know. Makes it easier for you to judge others, doesn't it? Enough talk. If you came for a fight, I'll give you one!"

*Upon encountering Laini*

Laini: "Uh... Who's there...?"

<Player>: "Great, another monster?"

Laini: "Monster? Do I look like a monster? I'm here to... do... something. Can't remember..."

<Player>: "Lost your memory, did you?"

Laini: "What... happened to me? What am I doing here?"

<Player>: "This will never do. We'll have to work this out once the area is secure."
Upon Completion Varracht: "Thank you. That rat was on the run as well, eh? I hope he learned his lesson. He was lucky you faced him instead of me."
Rewards

The Nameless Woman

Level 62
Quest Giver Zeldine Schneider
Briefing Zeldine: "So, let me get this straight. While on an unauthorized mission from Varracht, you encountered an unknown soldier in our operation area?"

Varracht: "I can't find any record of her name or anything, really. It's like she doesn't exist. Could be a traitor... wiped her records to throw us off. After dealing with Rake, we really can't be too careful."

Zeldine: "Varracht? What are you doing over here?"

Varracht: "Easy there, ma'am. It's still a free city on this side of the wall. And I would appreciate it if you could drop the suspicious tone."

Zeldine: "Um... That is... We should discuss this later. I am very concerned about this person present during our operations. Dungeon Fighter, I need you to keep an eye on her, and report anything suspicious."

Varracht: "That's a good idea. And if she turns out to be a Kartel spy, I'll shoot her myself."

Zeldine: "You would do that? The infamous Sandstorm?"

Varracht: "Heh. No comment, ma'am..."
Objectives Find the mysterious female gunner on the Final Pursuit on Medium or a higher level.
Dungeon Dialogue *Upon encountering Laini*

Laini: "Thank you for deciding to help me. Let's get going."

*Upon encountering Rabble Rouser Rake*

Rabble Rouser Rake: "Hey there, loser! We meet again! And you brought... You?! Are you...?"

Laini: "What? Do you know me?"

Rabble Rouser Rake: "How are you still alive? I remember Gizel finishing..."

Laini: "What are you talking about? Gizel? Do you know who I am?"

Rabble Rouser Rake: "Ah. A-ha! Hahaha! I get it. You survived, but your memories are gone. Makes sense, after what Gizel did to you."

Laini: "Do you know what happened to me? Tell me!"

Rabble Rouser Rake: "Hmph! Quite the temper for a traitor. You really don't know what you did? Oh, that's rich. Ha ha ha ha! Gizel can answer your questions. That is, if you can get through me. Bring it!"

*Upon defeating Mecha Gizel*

<Player>: "He got away..."

Laini: "Hmph, I had questions, but..."

<Player>: "Well, nothing we can do now. We should get back to Zeldine."
Upon Completion Zeldine: "Rake said what? So... Gizel knows something about her..."

The Past Revealed

Level 62
Quest Giver Zeldine Schneider
Briefing Zeldine: "You think that by confronting Gizel, you can find out about this woman's past? As long as this doesn't interfere with our plans, I have no problem with that. See if you can take out Gizel, while you're at it."
Objectives Return to the female gunner on the Final Pursuit on Medium or a higher level.
Dungeon Dialogue *Upon encountering Mecha Gizel*

Mecha Gizel: "Have you not learned when to quit? I have had it with you!"

Laini: "Gizel!"

Mecha Gizel: "What the...?"

Laini: "Do you know who I am?"

Mecha Gizel: "You? Laini... You're that traitor Laini! I thought I killed you!"

Laini: "Laini? Is my name Laini?"

Mecha Gizel: "Who cares what your name is? You lied to me, betrayed the Kartels. I'm insulted you even though you could trick me!"

<Player>: "Wait... Laini? Are you the spy the Imperial Army got into the Kartels?"

Laini: "It would seem so..."

<Player>: "So, you must have lost your memory when Gizel tried to kill you."

Mecha Gizel: "So I didn't kill you the first time. Well, I can fix that! And I'll kill your little friend while I'm at it! You were an idiot to come here at all. Prepare to die!"
Upon Completion Zeldine: "I'm relived to know she wasn't a spy. At least, not a Kartel spy. I had no idea the Imperial Army ran ops like that..."

Marlene: "Did I hear you right? Laini is alive?"

Zeldine: "Oh, do you know her, Marlene? Can you explain?"

Marlene: "Ah... Laini. Thank goodness. Yes, I can explain. Laini was part of the Imperial Princess Garden. On orders from the princess, she went undercover among the Kartels. We lost contact with her, and heard through other channels that the Kartels had disposed of a spy. We feared the worst... But, I am so happy she survived. It truly is a miracle."

Zeldine: "I see. Well, I'm glad everything worked out, at least. She has joined the Imperial Army, and is already proving to be valuable. Good news all around."

Quest Giver Zeldine Schneider
Briefing Zeldine: "Our retaliatory operation is coming to an end. We have mopped up most of the straggler and broken units. However, the main detachment of the Kartel forces remains in Final Pursuit. We cannot let this opportunity pass. We have to end this, once and for all. Take out anyone you can find."

Dungeon Dialogue *Upon encountering the Imperial Defenders*

Imperial Defender: "We have everyone we need. Begin the assault!"
Upon Completion Zeldine: "It... It's over. It's finally over. We drove them from the city, and scattered them to the winds. I have no doubt they'll pop again from time to time, but they can never mount a full offensive again. The Kartels are broken, and it's all thanks to you. The entire city... the whole Empire owes you a debt we can never repay! And me, as well. Perhaps my brother can finally rest in peace. Thank you for everything. Truly."
