Chat Log with Adso (05/04/2006)

Adso says, "My Master and the Black Knight sent me because of the difficult you have had in felling Kurth.

Adso says, "However, I will not be able to help you beyond this. You must come up with your own means of defeating Kurth.

You say, "how are we to do that? hes hard to defeat"

Adso says, "You must take counsel with the rest of the Whispering Blade and devise new, more effective strategies.

Adso says, "I do not have the answers - I am here to prod you toward devising the answers for yourselves.

Adso says, "I'm just an assassin.

You say, "what are his weaknesses?"

You say, "as an assassin you should know"

Adso says, "You would know better than I, having fought him. He's a larger than normal Viamontian Knight.

You say, "nothing like him though"

Adso says, "I would recommend comparing notes with the rest who fought to defeat him - see what worked and what was not as successful.

You say, "my lightning sword can cut down the best of the knights but barely scratches him"

Adso says, "Also, it seems that your forces were disorganized."

Adso says, "At one point, I was chased off by three or four who thought to slay me."

Adso says, "Some were Viamontian loyalists, it is true - but I believe some may have just been mitaken."

You say, "yes very but when he can cut through a group like butter everyone scatters"

Adso says, "So you must either devise a strategy that can survive Kurth cutting through it, or one which helps you survive his attacks and not break your formation."

You say, "i'll talk to others with the whispering blade to see what we can come up with"

Adso says, "Dardante is dealing in magics he doesn't understand. That's why my Master has asked the Black Knight to take an interest in the Rossu Morta."

Adso says, "Good."

Adso says, "And beward of infiltrators."

Adso says, "The Viamontian loyalists appear to be crafty, as far as pretending to not be what they really are."

Adso says, "There was one, a Matt Heafy, whose alliance was not known to me."

You say, "this war is tearing friends apart with 3 factions and everyone wants the same goal"

Adso says, "First he asked me to protect him, and when I told him that it was not my job to protect him, he stood near me, and as Liquid Ghost approached, he cast a war spell upon me."

Adso says, "I would not worry about Fort Tethana, if that if the third faction you refer to. Their interests are limited to their fort."

You say, "yes because their fort wasnt protected dont you think the only way for them to join with whispering blade would be to promise protection for the good of dereth?"

Adso says, "The Whispering Blade merely stands for opposition to Varicci. If those of Fort Tethana want to join us, so be it, but we do not have the manpower to protect the fort."

Adso says, "That's for Elysa."

Adso says, "You don't need to love Elysa to be a member. Merely hate Varicci."

You say, "thats part of it though, varicci promises protection, in his twisted ways where elysa dont"

Adso says, "Honestly, it's not even necessarily Varicci that I and my Master are concerned with. But he brought the war, and the madman, to us."

Adso says, "Dardante is my chief concern."

Adso says, "He is dabbling in powers he does no understand, and he risks all of us."

You say, "grael"

Adso says, "Speak to me of Grael. I've heard legends of an ancient, Bael'zharon-like power, but nothing more."

You say, "i dont know much about grael only what i have come across on my travels, there are powers there that need not be tapped"

Adso says, "I agree. Some powers are not safe for us to tap, at least without fully understanding them. And Dardante doesn't fully understand much of what he works in."

Adso says, "In any event, my time here is passing quickly and I must perform another mission for my Master."

You say, "then wouldnt it be wise to put a price on dardante's head?"

Adso says, "No one would be able to claim it."

Adso says, "Or at least very few, but Dardante has his own protections. Plus, of course, the protection of Asheron, as most of you do."

Adso says, "My Master does not want to go up against Dardante directly, nor does he want me to."

You say, "that protection has been gotten around before........."

Adso says, "In unusual circumstances, and Dardante is...different."

You say, "hes a man as any other, all have thier prices and all have weaknesses"

Adso says, "Tell me...were you at the fight?"

You say, "yes and took many trips to the lifestone"

Adso says, "What do you feel was the biggest problem the forces faced?"

You say, "we were greatly underpowered to that blade kurth carried"

You say, "along with the enchantments hes been given to raise his strength and general health"

Adso says, "I must go. Recruit more, and organize better. I will not be able to help you next time."

You say, "thank you for your time and guidance"

Adso says, "Be careful to whom you disclose my advice."

Adso says, "We need not inform the enemy."

You say, "of course"

Adso says, "Good fortune to you."

You say, "and to you"
