The parley
Quest Offering Political Dissident says, “Many of my fellow protesters have been captured and taken to the Justice of Khal for speaking out against the corrupt practices of the Port Authority. They are slated to be executed soon for the their [sic] so called ‘crimes’.” “I need you to hurry to the Justice of Khal along the road to the south. There, you must convince the guards that the political prisoners have been wrongfully imprisoned and should be set free. When you’re done, come back and let me know.” Prison Guard You ask, “Dangerous people? What crimes have they committed?” Prison Guard says, “I’m not sure, but they were sentenced to be executed, so their crimes must be heinous.” You say, “I happen to know what their supposed crimes are, and they are far from heinous.” Prison Guards asks, “Well, what is it that they have done?” You say, “They talked, and they expressed their opinion about a corrupt bureaucracy to the people around them.” Prison Guard says, “That’s it? Are you sure? That sounds pretty ridiculous to me.” You say, “Yeah, it is pretty ridiculous. These prisoners have wives and children who depend on them, and they’re going to be executed because they told the truth about something.” Prison Guard says, “Even so, not much I can do about it.” You say, “You could let them go.” Prison Guard says, “They keep records of all the prisoners and executions, that would never work.” You say, “Look around you. There’s a prison riot going on right now. One more free prisoner would never be noticed.” Prison Guard says, “Okay, okay, I guess I can let this one guy go. But only because he hasn’t done anything worthy of being executed.” Quest Completion Political Dissident says, “I cannot thank you enough for saving the lives of my fellows.” Political Dissident says, “Now that you have shown that you are willing to work against the corruption and villainy of the Port Authority, I can introduce you to people who know more about the various plots of the Port Authority.” “You will probably have to convince them of your genuine desire to bring about a new order in Khal. My word isn’t sufficient to earn you their trust. Go see Jalil Taleqani outside across the river near the mouth of the port.”
