*'''Ali:''' ''Basim!''
*'''Basim:''' ''Ali.''
*'''Ali:''' ''Are you ready? We must go.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Let us go.''
*'''Ali:''' ''We must leave for Jarjaraya!''
[]
*'''Ali:''' ''You Hidden Ones are strange. You give weapons you don't want me to use, then give me credit for your victories.''
*'''Basim:''' ''War would be bad for everyone, especially you.''
*'''Ali:''' ''That is your masters speaking.''
[]
*'''Ali:''' ''Does it not bother you that those you obey are the same ones who make the rules demanding your obedience?''
*'''Basim:''' ''They do not control me, I am free. I fight so that others are free as well.''
*'''Ali:''' ''Everything you do serves the Hidden Ones. That is a strange kind of freedom.''
*'''Basim:''' ''The Hidden Ones are my family. There is no contradiction.''
*'''Ali:''' ''If you say so.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Once, I lived on the streets and answered only to myself. But I was not free.''
*'''Ali:''' ''Now that others tell you who you are, are you any freer?''
*'''Basim:''' ''You could not understand.''
*'''Ali:''' ''I understand better than you.''
[]
*'''Civilian:''' ''There's another one. Who is he? I've never seen him before.''
*'''Civilian:''' ''Where are all these strangers coming from? Jarjaraya isn't safe anymore.''
[]
*'''Civilian:''' ''Ali, you are here! Alhamdulillah.''
[]
*'''Civilian:''' ''Ali, I know you will avenge us!''
[]
*'''Ali:''' ''If you are truly free, why the struggle within?''
*'''Basim:''' ''What do you mean? There is no struggle.''
*'''Ali:''' ''I see that what you think is at war with waht you feel. You will never find truth if you are not first truthful with yourself.''
*'''Basim:''' ''No man can see what another thinks.''
*'''Ali:''' ''No normal man. But look at me. I obey no one, I am ruled by no one. I am free.''
*'''Basim:''' ''I want to look around before Beshi arrives in Jarjaraya with the bodies.''
*'''Ali:''' ''That would be wise. People here are already angry. Things will be worse after the burials. There is a teahouse nearby. Tea drinkers talk. You might hear something there about who is taking our men.''
*'''Basim:''' ''What will you do?''
*'''Ali:''' ''I have my own inquiries to make. Meet me back here if you discover something.''
[]
*'''Tea House Owner:''' ''Marhaban! (Welcome!) Please, find a seat. Or perhaps view my unparalleled selection of teas. The finest in all Baghdad!''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''This looks like the teahouse Ali mentioned.''
[]
*'''Civilian:''' ''How is your tea, ya sayyidi?''
*'''Elder:''' ''This is cold! Get me another, and heat it this time!''
*'''Civilian:''' ''Yes, sayyidi. A thousand apologies.''
*'''Elder:''' ''Perfectly good Zanj slaves go missing, yet incompetents like you remain. No! Stop talking. Just get my tea!''
[]
*'''Civilian:''' ''You work and work and what do you get? Nothing! Damned slaves! I treat them well, I pay them well, I feed them ... and then they disappear. And no one's left to work!''
*'''Basim:''' ''He might talk ... if I can sober him up.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''Time to sober up.''
[]
*'''Civilian:''' ''Enough! I'm better!''
*'''Basim:''' ''A teahouse is a dangerous place to be drinking. You could have been arrested.''
*'''Civilian:''' ''I've just had a lot of trouble lately.''
*'''Basim:''' ''You said some of your slaves have gone missing.''
*'''Civilian:''' ''Did I? I don't remember. Not just missing, they disappeared!''
*'''Basim:''' ''People do not just disappear.''
*'''Civilian:''' ''These did! Last night two of mine did not come back from the fields. No one saw anything. They just disappeared. Poof!''
*'''Basim:''' ''So you thought you would get drunk in a public teahouse.''
*'''Civilian:''' ''Well ... yeah. Oh, my head. Look, do not tell anyone. I have to go home and fall over.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''Someone who loves tea would find this irresistible.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''I overheard you mention that slaves have gone missing.''
*'''Elder:''' ''What? Who are you? How dare you talk to me. Go away!''
<tabber>
|-|(Offer gift to Bribe)=
*'''Basim:''' ''You are obviously a man of taste. I would be willing to part with a brick of tea for a moment of your time.''
*'''Elder:''' ''I thought I .. wait, tea? All right, but be quick, before anyone sees me talking to you.''
*'''Basim:''' ''You mentioned Zanj slaves have been going missing.''
*'''Elder:''' ''I don't see what it has to do with you, but yes. A stranger, one of those rebels, has been disturbing the slaves. After he spoke with them, they disappeared. No doubt he's an acquaintance of that troublemaker Ali ibn Muhammad. That's all I know. Now leave before someone who matters sees me talking with someone like you.''

*'''Tea House Owner:''' ''Hey! Over here! This way!''
Basim approached the man.
*'''Basim:''' ''Did you want something?''
The teahouse owner whispered to Basim.
*'''Tea House Owner:''' ''Not here, there are too many ... ears, if you take my meaning.''
Projecting his voice, he continued.
*'''Tea House Owner:''' ''Ah, yes sayyidi! Our special teas are kept in the back. This way, watch your step!''
He began leading Basim away from the open courtyard.
*'''Tea House Owner:''' ''Follow me. Act casual.''
[]
*'''Tea House Owner:''' ''All right. It's clear.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Well, we ... seem to be alone. What did you want?''
*'''Tea House Owner:''' ''Sorry for the melodramatics, but you never know who is watching. And this sneaking about is all rather exciting! I saw your red sash and heard you talking about missing slaves. Another has disappeared form a farmhouse near here.''
*'''Basim:''' ''how do you know of this?''
*'''Tea House Owner:''' ''I am friendly with the family. The husband was one of those executed. Now the son has gone missing as well. His mother is beside herself with worry. I thought you might be able to help her.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Tell me where this farmhouse is.''
*'''Tea House Owner:''' ''A little to the west. Slaves don't trust easily, but if you can do anything for her, I would consider it a personal favor.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''I should return to Ali and tell him what I have discovered.''
[]
*'''Ali:''' ''Did you know I can hear what men think?''
[]
*'''Beshi:''' ''We should not do this. It will only make more trouble for us.''
*'''Ali:''' ''More trouble than executions?''
Ali slapped the bound man.
*'''Ali:''' ''They slaughtered our brothers. How do you not understand?''
*'''Basim:''' ''Ali, what is this? This is not what we agreed to.''
*'''Ali:''' ''I do what must be done. I do not need your approval. Did you discover something?''
*'''Basim:''' ''Slaves are disappearing from all over Jarjaraya, one from a nearby farmhouse. I will go there, and see what I can find.''
*'''Ali:''' ''Good. Our friend here has been spending his mornings at the harbor, meeting with one we think is informing for the Caliph. You could find this informant and follow him. See where that leads. Meanwhile, Beshi and I will loosen our friend's tongue.''
*'''Beshi:''' ''This is a mistake, Ali.''
*'''Ali:''' ''Let us see...''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''I should look for the informant, and help the widow find her missing son.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''This is the harbor. The informant is here somewhere.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''There is the mark. Now to keep them in my sights, and avoid unwanted attention.''
[]
*'''Informant:''' ''Hmph. No notes today. I should get going. It's almost time.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Time for what, I wonder? I should follow him, but I cannot let him see me. ''
[]
*'''Informant:''' ''I've got new information.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''What have you got for me?''
*'''Informant:''' ''Apart from that slave kid I already told you about, someone's been sniffing around Jarjaraya, asking questions.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Is it the one we reported last time, that troublemaker Beshi?''
*'''Informant:''' ''This one is new. No one seems to know anything about him.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''What are you doing then? I'm carrying letters for the boss, and you're wasting my time! Come back when you've got a name.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''These two were gathering information for someone called Dogan bin Arslan. I must find this Dogan, but first I should help the widow with her missing son. Perhaps it is connected.''
[]
["Like Father, Like Son" takes place]
[]
*'''Ali:''' ''You return at last.''
*'''Basim:''' ''What have you done?''
*'''Ali:''' ''What I had to do.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Is this what your freedom looks like?''
*'''Ali:''' ''I do not follow your creed, nor do I answer to the Hidden Ones. This is the price of war.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Beshi would disagree...''
*'''Ali:''' ''Beshi does not lead this rebellion! He does his part, and I do mine. But enough. What have you discovered?''
*'''Basim:''' ''The missing slaves were taken at the order of one called Dogan bin Arslan. Something big is happening soon. I do not know what.''
*'''Ali:''' ''I do. This one said my men are being interrogated, and are to be executed by their leader afterward at the villa.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Ali, the informant mentioned Beshi by name. They are looking for him.''
*'''Ali:''' ''Let them look. Go free my men. I will prepare our attack on the villa. Meet me near the farm when you are done.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''This looks like the farm where Ali's men were being held.''
[]
*'''Soldier:''' ''These stupid slaves are going to be sorry they didn't just do their work.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''The boss won't go easy on them. He loves his work.''
[]
*'''Rebel:''' ''Alhamdulillah! We thought we were dead.''
[]
*'''Rebel:''' ''Get me out of here.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Ali is waiting just outside the farm. Go quickly.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''The widow's son is not here.''
[]
*'''Soldier:''' ''I heard the kid is the son of one of those executed rebels. He came looking for his father's killers.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Well, he found them, didn't he? He'll go the same way as his father now.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''Your mother is waiting for you.''
*'''Widow's Son:''' ''I'm not going back yet. They killed my father. I will fight with the others!''
*'''Basim:''' ''You are brave. Fine, meet Ali outside the farm.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''That is all of them. I should meet with Ali.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''Is everyone here?''
*'''Ali:''' ''Dogan bin Arslan dies now. We wait only for you.''
(Accept - Let's begin the assault)
*'''Basim:''' ''I am ready. Let us go.''
[]
*'''Ali:''' ''They stole you from your homes when you were free, and brought you here to die in their fields as slaves. They slaughtered our brothers like dogs in Sharqiyah. Now they have taken more of us.''
*'''Rebel:''' ''No!''
*'''Widow's Son:''' ''No more!''
*'''Ali:''' ''I promised you a new life. I gave you my word. More join us every day, from the least in Baghdad to the greatest. Allah is with us. Our cause is righteous. Our justice is destined. God is great! God is great! There is no God but God, and God is great!''
*'''Rebel:''' ''There is no God but God!''
*'''Ali:''' ''There is no judgement but by God!''
[]
*'''Dogan bin Arslan:''' ''You rebels need to learn your place!''
[]
{{IUNote|Title=Dogan's Orders|Text=Dogan,<br><br>I want a full report of your progress this week. AI-A'eshma in particular has questions about the stranger nosing around Jarjaraya recently. I suggest you make extra effort to provide answers - for your own sake. Al-A'eshma, more so than me, does not like to be disappointed.<br><br>We will expect you at the Officers' Club in Shargiyah, as usual.<br><br>- Al-Rukh
}}
[]
*'''Ali:''' ''When word gets out of this victory, many will join our cause.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Dogan bin Arslan was carrying orders. He was to report to superiors at the Officers' Club in Sharqiyah.''
*'''Ali:''' ''Those superiors may be who ordered the executions. Does it name them?''
*'''Basim:''' ''It uses codenames. Al-Rukh and Al-A'eshma. Only the Order uses such names. I will go to this club and see what I can find.''
*'''Ali:''' ''I wish you luck. I must return and wait for Beshi.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Be careful, Ali. The Caliph will be hunting you both after this.''
*'''Ali:''' ''There are things we cannot hide from if we are to be truly free.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''I should go to the Officers' Club in Sharqiyah.''
[]
=====Like Father, Like Son=====
[]
*'''Zanj Widow:''' ''Not my son as well! I cannot lose him like his father!''
*'''Civilian:''' ''Maybe he's safe somewhere. He could be lost.''
*'''Zanj Widow:''' ''No. He is gone. I haven't even had a chance to gather flowers for my hisband's funeral and now my son is gone too.''
*'''Basim:''' ''This must be the place. Excuse me.''
*'''Zanj Widow:''' ''Who are you? What do you want?''
*'''Basim:''' ''Forgive me, I did not mean to startle you. The teahouse owner told me of your trouble. Perhaps I can help.''
*'''Zanj Widow:''' ''I do not see how. I don't know you.''
*'''Basim:''' ''You need flowers for your husband's burial. I too once lost those close to me, but could not bury them. It would be an honor if you let me do for you what I could not do for my friends. I will gather these flowers.''
*'''Zanj Widow:''' ''My husband often brought some White Savory to me. If you bring me some, I will leave them at his grave once he is buried, as my final gift.''
*'''Basim:''' ''It will be done.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''The flowers will be nearby. I should look around.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''These look like the flowers I need.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''These are beautiful flowers. My friends would have approved.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''I brought the flowers, with my sympathy.''
*'''Zanj Widow:''' ''They are such elegant flowers. My husband loved them. Thank you. Is there something I can do for you?''
*'''Basim:''' ''I am trying to find who is taking slaves from Jarjaraya. I know your son is missing.''
*'''Zanj Widow:''' ''Yes. I lost his father. It would be more than I can bear if I lost him too.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Can you tell me what he was doing before he went missing?''
*'''Zanj Widow:''' ''When his father was taken, he became very unhappy. He started going out at night. Last night, he never returned.''
*'''Basim:''' ''I will look around. There might be something here that tells what happened.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''I could pick up her son's tracks around here.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''There are a lot of tracks here. The tracks lead to that small building. I need to find a way inside.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''The oil is low. He was working late.''
[]
{{IUNote|Title=Son's Letter|Text=I have seen mercenaries go in and out of that farm. They must be the ones who took Father and the others. | am going tonight, and will see what I see.<br><br>I leave this note here, in case I am taken as well. I am sorry to disobey you, Mother, but Beshi is right. We must fight.}}
*'''Basim:''' ''A letter! He mentions a nearby farm. I should let his mother know what I have found.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''I found a letter from yuor son. He was looking for the men who took his father.''
*'''Zanj Widow:''' ''That foolish boy!''
*'''Basim:''' ''He mentioned a nearby farm. Do you know what he was talking about?''
*'''Zanj Widow:''' ''Oh no. That is Dogan's farm. It is crawling with mercenaries. If he went there... Please! Find my son!''
*'''Basim:''' ''If he lives, I will send him back to you. You have my word.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''Dogan's farm will be heavily guarded. I should return to Ali and discuss the next move.''
[]
=====The Raptor and the Demon=====
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''The Officers' Club. Now to find a way inside.''
[]
*'''Soldier:''' ''They trust me with the key to their special room. That's something, right?''
[]
*'''Al-Rukh:''' ''Did you see that woman whose husband we took?''
*'''Al-A'eshma:''' ''It is not unlawful to make her your slave. Oh dont look at me like that! Allah has favored us, Jasoor. Or should only the mighty Al-Mardikhwar enjoy such blessings?''
*'''Al-Rukh:''' ''Do not speak his name, not even here! Of all of us, he scares me the most. You know what he is like. If he learns of my past and finds fault, where can I run? I do not have the luxuries of your ships, Nadir.''
*'''Al-A'eshma:''' ''You may have taken liberties with truth in the past, but you have proven your loyalty many times. You executed those rebels, recently. That was a task more cold-blooded than his ordering of it. Perhaps he shoud fear you.''
*'''Al-Rukh:''' ''It is your voice I hear, but the words are those of the Shaytan (Devil) himself. Do not jest. I want no trouble when he returns.''
*'''Al-A'eshma:''' ''Shaytan! That is high praise coming from you! It is as I told you. We are favored, and need not fear anything.''
*'''Al-Rukh:''' ''Where is Dogan? He is late.''
*'''Al-A'eshma:''' ''As always, my friend, you worry too much. Which is why you are merely Al-Rukh, and I am ... Al-A'eshma.''
[]
*'''Soldier:''' ''My apologies, Generals. Dogan bin Arslan has been murdered, and we fear there is an intruder. We must get you to safety.''
*'''Al-Rukh:''' ''I knew something was wrong! Dogan is never late.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''Those two are with the Order, and they serve a third they call Al-Mardikhwar. But now, I need to find a way out.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''I am safe. I should return to Fuladh.''
[]
=====The Hunt=====
[]
*'''Fuladh:''' ''Good, you are here. You have kicked many nests. Mercenaries are everywhere, like angry ants.''
*'''Ali:''' ''It explains Beshi's absence. He's avoiding the mercenaries.''
*'''Fuladh:''' ''I hope the trouble was all worth it?''
*'''Basim:''' ''I have discovered two of the officers are working with the Order. And there is another, their leader.''
*'''Fuladh:''' ''Three! That would explain the Order's reach in Sharqiyah.''
*'''Basim:''' ''The first two go by the names Al-Rukh and Al-A'eshma. The third, they call Al-Mardikhwar.''
*'''Ali:''' ''They hide behind pompous names like prideful children!''
*'''Fuladh:''' ''Do not mistake the Order's vanities for childishness. They are the real power behind the Abbasids. Did you discover anything that would identify them?''
<tabber>
|-|Discuss Al-Rukh=
*'''Basim:''' ''The one named Al-Rukh was called Jasoor by his companion. He is hiding from his past, and lives in fear because of it.''
*'''Fuladh:''' ''Jasoor, yes. That must be the Arab General Jasoor ibn Basil.''
*'''Ali:''' ''I know of him ... a coward who stole credit for victories on the battlefield won by others.''
*'''Fuladh:''' ''A past he has gone to great efforts to hide. Jasoor has a villa at Qasr Salih to the west. You could look for him there.''
|-|Discuss Al-A'eshma=
*'''Basim:''' ''The one called Al-A'eshma, his real name is Nadir. He has command of ships, and is not timid like his companion. Arrogant, in fact.''
*'''Fuladh:''' ''Nadir...''
*'''Ali:''' ''That must be Admiral Nadir ibn Havid. A boastful fool, concerned more with his ships than his own man.''
*'''Fuladh:''' ''Ah yes, the Admiral. Boastful, perhaps, but brilliant. He has created several new warships for the Caliph. The Order's reach has grown if they have recruited Nadir. You should look for him at the Lower Harrbor, to the north.''
|-|Discuss Al-Mardikhwar=
*'''Basim:''' ''As for their leader, Al-Mardikhwar, I learned only that he is away from Sharqiyah, and expected to return soon.''
*'''Fuladh:''' ''This one I do not know. It is the first time I have heard the name.''
*'''Ali:''' ''If he is their leader, he ordered the death of my men. He's the one you must find.''
*'''Fuladh:''' ''Yes, and for other reasons besides. Our best hope of finding him is through the first two.''
*'''Ali:''' ''Find this Al-Mardikhwar, Basim, as we agreed. I will wait for Beshi.''
</tabber>
*'''Ali:''' ''I am grateful for your help freeing my men. Take this token, with thanks.''
Ali left.
*'''Basim:''' ''I will find Jasoor and Nadir, and unmask their leader.''
*'''Fuladh:''' ''They will be wary now, protected within their strongholds. You may have to lure them out. Thread carefully, Basim. These are dangerous men.''
*'''Basim:''' ''So am I.''
[]
=====Bird Trap=====
[]
*'''Civilian:''' ''What is happening? Why are the soldiers patrolling?''
*'''Civilian:''' ''There was an attack in Sharqiyah. Everyone's on edge.''
*'''Civilian:''' ''Sounds like trouble. Let's go home.''
*'''Basim:''' ''The whole area is on high alert. I am expected.''
[]
*'''Soldier:''' ''What's wrong with the General? He's in a panic, screaming for reinforcements we don't have.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Something that happened in Sharqiyah has him worried... More than usual, I mean.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''A key. There must be a door it opens.''
[]
*'''Al-Rukh:''' ''Stay alert! They broke into the Officer's room. If they break in here, it is all your heads!''
[]
{{IUNote|Title=Short Letter|Text=Al-Rukh,<br><br>I've heard troubling rumor that your celebrated past accomplishments were somewhat exaggerated. It seems you have been telling lies.<br><br>I expect you at the Great Garrison when I return. We have much to discuss.<br><br>-Al-Mardikhwar}}
*'''Basim:''' ''There is a note. Al-Marrdikhwar had questions about our friend's past. Smart. He was ordered to a meeting at the Great Garrison.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''One down. Now to deal with Al-A'eshma.''
[]
=====To Catch a Demon=====
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''This is the harbor. Now to find Admiral Nadir.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''This is a detailed diagram of a strange-looking ship.''
[]
{{IUNote|Title=Shipment Notice|Text=Shipments bearing the Warlord's insignia are to be sent directly to the camp south of River Tigris. No exceptions.<br><br>- Admiral Nadir}}
*'''Basim:''' ''A note directing all shipments to a location just south along the river Tigris.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''This shipment is headed outside the city.''
[]
*'''Soldier:''' ''It's just my luck to be sent to the biggest dung pile in all of Sharqiyah.''
[]
*'''Soldier:''' ''This camp is the worst I've ever seen in all my years as a soldier. Rats live better.''
[]
{{IUNote|Title=Guard Orders|Text=No torches are to be taken near the prototype. Any man found doing so will not only lose a month's wages, he will spend a week in the Great Garrison at the pleasure of the Warlord.<br><br>- Admiral Nadir}}
*'''Basim:''' ''Admiral Nadir is very concerned about keeping fire away from his prototype ship.''
[]
*'''Soldier:''' ''The admiral is all talk. I've never heard bluster so much and do so little. Not even you.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Shut up! If the Admiral doesn't beat you to stop your complaining, I will.''
[]
*'''Soldier:''' ''The Admiral cares more for tis precious model ship than his own men, and look at it. I'm surprised it floats.''
*'''Basim:''' ''It would be a pity if that little ship caught fire.''
[]
*'''Soldier:''' ''No, no no! Put it out! Hurry! He'll take our heads!''
[]
*'''Al-A'eshma:''' ''Guards, lock down the camp! Find the one responsible! No one who dares raise their hand against me escapes. I didn't survive a hundred ocean battles to suffer insult! I want the dogs found! Bring them to me, or you'll feel the bite of my lash yourselves!''
[]
{{IUNote|Title=Angy Missive|Text=Al-A'eshma,<br><br>Yet another shipment of military supplies has gone missing. That is the second time in as many months. I do not need to tell you what the consequences would be if the Caliph were to discover the contents of those shipments.<br><br>The harbor and everything in it is under your control. | hold you personally responsible for what passes through it. I expect a full accounting of everything that has gone in and out of Sharqiyah in the  past year on my desk when I return. <br><br>Do not test me on this.<br><br>- Al-Mardikhwar}}
*'''Basim:''' ''A letter from Al-Mardikhwar about missing shipments belonging to the Turkic mercenaries. The Admiral was stealing.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''That is two down. I should return to Fuladh.''
[]
=====The Chase=====
[]
*'''Fuladh:''' ''Wait, Ali. Let us hear from Basim, first. Were you successful in your tasks?''
*'''Basim:''' ''General Jasoor and Admiral Nadir are dead.''
*'''Fuladh:''' ''Did you find anything to identify Al-mardikhwar?''
*'''Basim:''' ''Not exactly. General Jasoor was commanded to meet Al-Mardikhwar at the Great Garrison. It seems his past finally caught up to him. Admiral Nadir was questioned about missing supply shipments meant for the Turkic military. Al-Mardikhwar was not happy.''
*'''Fuladh:''' ''So ... Al-Mardikhwar is at the Great Garrison, overseeing supplies for the Turkic mercenaries. There is only one officer of sufficient rank who fits. Warlord Wasif al Turki.''
*'''Ali:''' ''Wasif! This makes sense. There are few others who could have taken Beshi.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Beshi has been taken?''
*'''Ali:''' ''He never came back.''
*'''Fuladh:''' ''Wasif just returned from an excursion for the Caliph, and is at the Garrison. If he has Beshi, that is where he will be.''
*'''Ali:''' ''Then that is where I am going.''
*'''Fuladh:''' ''Wasif controls half of Baghdad. If we challenge him and fail, it could start a war that reaches even Alamut. You need Basim.''
*'''Ali:''' ''Fine. I will meet Basim near the Garrison before I move. But do not take long. I am finished waiting.''
Ali left and Fuladh gave Basim a feather.
*'''Fuladh:''' ''Enter the Great Garrison and kill Wasif. He must not escape, and it must look like Ali did it. The safety of Alamut depends on it.''
*'''Basim:''' ''It will be done.''

The Exile's Plan

[Memory description:] Modu's identity is enough for you to find out the situation outside the city, and you decide to start with the Frontier Village.

  • Wei Yu's disciple: Prince Modu said these men were slavers. I won't hold back when I meet them.

[goes to the Frontier Village]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: The village is under attack! No doubt these are Touman's men.

[fighting begins, finds their leader, whose name keeps changing between Wulei and Wuleidihou, and will use Uluyjoti in a scene further along]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: If I can take down their leader, this raid will end faster.

[boss fight]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: You people are giving the Xiongnu a bad name. You enslave your own kin and even attack those you collude with? Where is your honor?
  • Wulei: You dare attack me? Do you know who I am? I'm Wulei, the Xiongnu prince!

[defeats dude]

  • Wulei: Please, don't kill me! I-I'm a prince! My life has value!
  • Wei Yu's disciple: I heard you the first time, prince. Tell me, are you the son of Touman Chanyu?
  • Wulei: Yes! Yes! You've heard of my father? If you let me go he'll be in your debt.
  • Wei Yu's disciple: I doubt he will honor that. He sent you to attack this village even though he claims to be friends with the Qin. I am also aware that your father enslaved his own people for profit.
  • Wulei: Who... Who are you? How do you know that?

[to themselves]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: I should let this rat go and follow him back to his hideout.

[frees him]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: Tell your father that his reckoning is at hand, that the Youxia are here to exact justice.
  • Wulei: Y-Youxia? I'll be sure to deliver that message!

[gets up and starts to leave, with the protag following them]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: I'll have to keep up while maintaining my cover.

[protag tails them, eavesdropping a few times, when Wulei stopped to talk to other Xiongnu]

  • Xiongnu scout: My prince, there you are! We thought we had lost you. We sent a few search parties to no avail.
  • Wulei: Your concern is appreciated, I wasn't sure if I could make it back alive...
  • Xiongnu scout: You are safe now, my prince. We will stay here and guard the perimeter.

[continues following them]

  • Xiongnu hunter: My prince, you are back! I am just about to hunt, would you care to join?
  • Wulei: Perhaps another time, I am exhausted today. But my father and I are grateful for the game you always provide.
  • Xiongnu hunter: You are too kind, my prince. Please, rest well.

[continues following them to where the clan is camped]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: Hmmm, so this is where Touman Chanyu resides. I'll need to find proof of their collusion with the Qin. Perhaps I can infiltrate the camp as a passing merchant.

[overhears a conversation between two herders as the protag enters the camp]

  • Prudent herder: Haven't seen this merchant before...
  • Proud herder: Another Qin merchant? They don't know when to quit.
  • Xiongnu guard: You! Where do you think you're going? You walk into our camp without wares and a weapon on your back, are you asking for an early death?
  • Wei Yu's disciple: I'm a peddling merchant... and I'm here to collect furs for trade. That is why I came empty handed.
  • Xiongnu guard: We weren't informed of any collection today. Who sent you?
  • Wei Yu's disciple: Duanhe, the Qin officer, sent me... Surely, you've heard of him? He works with Touman Chanyu.
  • Xiongnu guard: Duanhe? Why didn't you say so earlier? Go on then, but any funny business and you're out of here.

[protag goes to enter the main tent, only to be met with Wulei walking out of it]

  • Wulei: That- That is the Youxia! You dare enter my father's camp after what you did?

[escaping begins]

  • Xiongnu guard: You heard the prince! Kill that scoundrel! Don't let that Qin snake near our Prince!

[runs out of the village and into safety]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: I can't take on a whole village by myself. I should return in the evening when they are asleep.

[finds an abandoned camp]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: They've stopped pursuing. This seems like a good place to stake out until the sun goes down.

[time passes]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: Under the cover of night, they are less likely to spot an intruder. Grand General Meng Tian is counting on me to find evidence of their collusion with the Qin.

[returns to the camp, eavesdrops on a couple of herders]

  • Timid herder: We can't keep living like this. You promised me a good life! We're no better than slaves here.
  • Prudent herder: Shut it woman, do you want us dead?

[to themselves]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: None of them are safe even from their own people.

[overhears another conversation]

  • Proud herder 1: How are we going to overcome the Qin empire when we fight among ourselves? Why do we enslave our own people?
  • Proud herder 2: We pledged loyalty to Touman only because he's the strongest and we'll never be made slaves.

[infiltrates main tent, finds note]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: Touman Chanyu has ordered all the scattered tribes to gather here... This is bad, he's gathering forces.

[goes to another tent, overhears stuff and takes letter from tent]

  • Xiongnu guard: Hah, of course, you don't have to worry.
  • Purple soldier: If Touman keeps up his end of the deal, the next batch of supplies will be coming soon. And don't forget to hand him the missive in the tent. That letter is from my boss, Duanhe.
  • Xiongnu guard: Don't you worry, I will pass the message on if you keep those taels coming.
  • Purple soldier: Good, I'm meeting my boss at the western camp. You keep an eye on Touman and make sure he sticks to the plan.

Yang Duanhe's Secret Letter

Gather your forces on the west side of the wall. I'll personally create an opening for you to pass through.

-Duanhe
  • Wei Yu's disciple: An official agreement between the Qin Department of Immortality and Touman Chanyu! Signed, Duanhe. This is it. I need to get this to Grand General Meng Tian...

[leaves camp]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: I have the evidence for the Grand General, but this might be the only chance for me to catch Duanhe... There's no time for second guessing! For Chu Huan's sake... I'll end Duanhe myself.

[heads to the western camp] As you approach the western camp in search of Yang Duanhe, a group of Xiongnu raiders appear from the roadside, hoping to ambush a lonely traveler. [starts to fight off ambush]

  • Xiongnu raider: What luck, an easy target! Hand us everything you've got, even your clothes.
  • Wei Yu's disciple: Sorry, I'm not in a giving mood today.
  • Xiongnu raider: There's no one out here to save you, so be good, and we'll let you go easy.
  • Wei Yu's disciple: You raiders are persistent. I'll give you that. But I won't give up just yet...

[protag keeps killing the cannon fodder, but more keep arriving]

  • Xiongnu raider: You really think you can take on all of us?
  • Wei Yu's disciple: How many of them are there? They just keep coming. I can't... keep up...

You clear another wave of Xiongnu warriors, but it seems endless. As fatigue catches up to you, a sudden hail of arrows takes out the oncoming warriors. Modu and his men arrive. He tells the survivors to bring word back to his father that Prince Modu has returned. As they flee, he comes to speak to you.

  • Modu: I have important news. Our scouts have confirmed that the Qin forces have gathered our tribes to the west.
  • Wei Yu's disciple: The west is where I am headed as well. I found evidence, solid evidence, that will get the Grand General on our side.
  • Modu: Good, but you may not make it back in time to your General in time. If my scouts are right, they will attack the wall soon. Seems to be a distraction, to lure your General out. For what reason, I do not know. And I fear my father cares little for their true intent if he can fatten his belly and grow his fortune. Get to Tulu pass [sic] as soon as you can. I have also sent word to your friend, she will be on her way to meet you.
  • Wei Yu's disciple: Thank you, Prince Modu. You have saved my life and guided me through your lands.
  • Modu: It was you who saved my life first. Now you can tell your friends that you have a Prince in your debt.
  • Wei Yu's disciple: You are no mere prince. It would do the Xiongnu good for you to become their next King. I pray we meet again.

Battle at the Wall

[Memory description:] Yang Duanhe is in Tulu Pass, between the Great Wall and the Frontier. For Chu Huan, for Jade Spring, you must settle the score with him... [protag arrives at Great Wall Junction]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: Prince Modu said he sent Yingying this way as well, she should be nearby.

[approaches her]

  • Yu Ying: It seems that heir collusion goes way back...

[she notices protag]

  • Yu Ying: There you are! I've been searching for Jingjing but she's proven to be rather elusive.
  • Wei Yu's disciple: She said she didn't want to get involved with us. Maybe we should leave her be.
  • Yu Ying: I'm just worried... either way, Modu sent me a message to get here, and I found something way worse... That man, Duanhe, he's here. And they've smuggled a hill's worth of oil barrels to blow up the wall.
  • Wei Yu's disciple: These people know no loyalty. A Qin soldier blowing up the wall, and colluding with the Xiongnu...
  • Yu Ying: Whatever it is they've planned isn't good. We have to stop them.
  • Wei Yu's disciple: What they did to our village, we can't let that happen again.

[goes to destroy the explosives at Tulu Pass, sees Qin soldiers and Xiongnu fighting there.]

  • Qin soldier: You will never strike us down! The Qin will defend our territory.

[enters a warehouse and destroys some of the explosives] [helps the Qin]

  • Qin soldier: Barbarians! Strike them down!

[destroys some more]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: They've already transported some barrels to the wall. I should destroy those as well.

[climbs up, destroys those, but hears/sees an explosion]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: Was I too late? Yingying might be in trouble.

[goes to the source, finding Yang Duanhe messing with the explosives] As you approach Yang Duanhe, he recognizes you and promises to kill you as he killed Chu Huan. He throws an explosive your way but before it reaches you, Yu Ying appears from above and kicks it away, endangering herself as it explodes. In the smoke, Yang Duanhe flees and an injured Yu Ying implores you to follow him. [jarring scene transition to an exploded section of the wall, where the protag goess to fight Yang Duanhe]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: I swear, on the memory of my brother, today will be your last.
  • Yang Duanhe: Big talk for someone who lost to me before. Let's see how you fare against my bombs, I've been itching to test them.
  • Wei Yu's disciple: Why did you attack our village? Who do you serve?
  • Yang Duanhe: Hah, and why would I tell you anything? You are but an ant in the grand scheme of things.
  • Wei Yu's disciple: You will regret messing with the Youxia.
  • Yang Duanhe: Oh here we go again, with the righteous talk. You people are sickening.
    Disgusting worm, don't you know when to give up? Stop getting in my way.
  • Wei Yu's disciple: Quit running, you coward! I will chase you till the ends of the earth even if I have to.

[he escapes, protag climbs up the wall after him, having to deal with guards along the way]

  • Purple sergeant: Stay back! Come no further!
  • Wei Yu's disciple: Your purple garments only fuel my anger. I remember how you slaughtered the weak.

[keeps going towards Duanhe]

  • Purple sergeant: Don't you know who you're up against?
  • Wei Yu's disciple: This is for what you did to my village!

[keeps going towards Duanhe]

  • Yang Duanhe: Argh... I can't... anymore...

[i think there was another voice here, but it all mixes together and there's no subs for that]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: The Fox huh, seems like even Duanhe answers to someone.

You overpower Yang Duanhe and drive your blade through his chest. As Yang Duanhe brethes his last, a figure in a fox mask attempts to assassinate you, but quick reflexes allow you to parry the incoming blade, giving you the chance to engage them in combat. [fight begins against the "Masked Person"]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: So, you're the one in charge... the one pulling the strings under the Grand General's nose.
  • Fox: Hmph. What do you know? You're just a pathetic Youxia. Stay out of my way.
  • Wei Yu's disciple: You pit the Qin and Xiongnu against each other, for what end? We are not your pawns!
  • Fox: There are only two types of people in this world, the sheep or the slaughterer. What are you?
  • Wei Yu's disciple: I'm your slaughterer!
  • Fox: A slaughterer takes. A sheep gives. You, who so boldly claim to take, are no better than the rest of us. Do not act righteous when your hand are soaked with the blood of a thousand sheep.

Your next move knocks the Fox's mask off, revealing Nie Jing's face. Yu Ying and Meng Tian arrive and Nie Jing pulls out the stolen treasure from Yangzhou Palace. A magical shield deflects your blades, shattering and dazzling you. When the stars fade from your vision, she's gone. [protag follows Meng Tian and Yu Ying, while Cyf does not stop opening the menus to make my work harder]

  • Wei Yu's disciple: My search has led me to believe that the Department of Immortality has been manipulating the Xiongnu. I found a written agreement between Toumman Chanyu and Yang Duanhe.
  • Meng Tian: An agreement signed by Duanhe is not enough evidence to persecute the court official in charge. I have looked outwards for far too long... and now the foundations of our empire crumbles. But I won't stay idle, not when my family's position is threatened at court and this country rots from within. I have news that the Department of Immortality has dealings in Shangjun. I seek an eagle. A swift and wary hunter to keep track of a fox that has long evaded my sight.
  • Wei Yu's disciple: Then an eagle I shall be, and I will not stop until the fox [sic] has paid the price of betrayal.
  • Meng Tian: Good. Head to North Shangjun Garrison and Fushi Clay Mine. Find out whatever you can.
