Callo Merlose:
[discussing Sydney’s intentions] It is sad…

John Hardin:
What is?

Callo Merlose:
Even if he can see the past and clasp the truth, how are we to know if he speaks it? If he can push us to believe anything, how do we tell truth from falsehood?

John Hardin:
Why single him out? Everyone lies, surely you know that. Whether they are Dark sorcerers or corrupt clergy, they all lie, and we believe. Am I wrong?

Grissom:
Please, a moment. My body is not… cooperating.

[he sees Ashley]

Grissom:
Y-you!

Tieger:
I am sorry, Brother. We cannot help you now.

Grissom:
What… what is happening?

Neesa:
Grissom, you have left this coil. The Dark has filled you; you have joined the cold ones!

Grissom:
[begins to tremble] An ironic fate. I suppose it is better than the endless wand’ring… but to happen upon your own corpse!

A Voice:
Kill… Kill them all.

Grissom:
Wh-who speaks?

A Voice:
It is bitter…lonely… They must join us… Kill them!

Grissom:
The walls! The walls speak?

A Voice:
Your friends, they dream of killing you. They would steal your body! Kill! Kill them, Grissom!

[at that, Neesa and Tieger move towards Grissom, weapons drawn]

Grissom:
My flesh… is mine, and mine alone!

[Grissom suddenly leaps over their heads and runs out the door]

Neesa:
[running after him]

[shouts]

Neesa:
Grissom!

[Ashley tenses as Teiger decides whether to deal with him or run after his brother, but then follows Neesa out of the Undercity. Ashley relaxes.]

Where did he go?

Ashley Riot:
Rosencrantz, was it? Your words bear much meaning.

Jan Rosencrantz:

Ashley Riot:
Yet, you have no evidence.

Jan Rosencrantz:

Ashley Riot:
[turns to walk away] I will cut you, next we meet. Leave the city before sundown if you value your life.

Romeo Guildenstern:
The Dark is formless and invisible. It invades the body like a plague, an unseen visitor. Yet those it taints become… undying.

Commander Samantha:
“Undying?”

Romeo Guildenstern:
Yes. They do not die.

Commander Samantha:
But… he did die. Turned to dust. Leaving no trace. Did he not?

Romeo Guildenstern:
What is death? Is it the ruination of the flesh? Surely, that is death, but it is only one facet of the truth. True death… is the death of the soul.

Commander Samantha:
And theirs is not a true death?

Romeo Guildenstern:
Even should their flesh crumble to decay, their souls will wander eternally. The undying of Leá Monde do die. But, it is… an incomplete death.

Ashley Riot:
[listening from afar] “An incomplete death”…

Romeo Guildenstern:
Trapped in purgation, they yearn for life. Thus, they seek bodies without souls. And the “corpses that walk” are born. They say the howl of the north wind is the cry of the wandering souls.

Ashley Riot:
Reinforcements? I am the reinforcements.
