Sitting at the top of Karkh's web of power is the Treasurer. In controlling taxes and extorting the merchants of Karkh, The Treasurer is succesfully funding the Order at the expense of the people's livelihood. Coveting a rare hairpin form the East, the Treasurer seizes the imports of any foreign artifacts at the harbor, causing great distress for various businesses. Having hidden themselves successfully in the shadows, the Treasurer's identity is known to few. It is time to draw back the veil.

*'''Basim:''' ''There is a rot in Karkh, Treasurer. Property stolen. Merchants extorted. Foreigns tormented. Corruption is rank, and everywhere ... but you are at its heart. Even now, your poison spreads along the East Road to lands untouched by the Order's venom. I hear you hunger for a hairpin, one up for auction at the Da'irat Al-mal. I will play the rival for your heart's desire and draw you from the shadows.''
[]
*'''Civilian:''' ''Refreshing to see the bazaar so lively. The traders only bring in the finest spices I want during the auction!''
*'''Civilian:''' ''It is a time to buy the exquisite, to mingle with elite, and to dress in your finest.''
*'''Civilian:''' ''Yet we still have persons dressed in a hood...''
[]
*'''Kong:''' ''Basim! Lái! (Come!)''
*'''Basim:''' ''Should have known you would be here, Kong.''
*'''Kong:''' ''Hah! You know me. Come, let us chat.''
*'''Basim:''' ''I do have something to ask of you... Do you have nay information about the Treasurer? Someone who works for the Caliphate.''
*'''Kong:''' ''The Treasurer? Hmm, I do have something but, you know, it hurts to give precious information for free...''
*'''Basim:''' ''What job do you need now?''
*'''Kong:''' ''Hah! Already know what is on my mind, eh? You see, little finch, the Da'irat Al-mal is not only an important event for the upper-class of Karkh, but also for the thieves.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Did someone take something of yours again?''
*'''Kong:''' ''A precious ceramic saucer. Luca has it. He has always been jealous of me.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Where do you think it is?''
*'''Kong:''' ''I knew I could rely on you, little finch! You should be able to find it in the crates near the stall.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Be right back.''
[]
*'''Civilian:''' ''Ceramics and textiles from the East! Took a while to get past the blockade but they made it for the auction.''
[]
*'''Civilian:''' ''I assume you hear about the commotion a few stalls down?''
*'''Civilian:''' ''Do not tell me it's Kong and Luca again...''
*'''Civilian:''' ''Oh, not them this time. Another pair of traders fighting to get a stall near the auction.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''This must be the stall Kong mentioned. Now, to find that plate...''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''Trust Kong to own a plate like this. Now, maybe he will tell me what he knows about the Treasurer.''
[]
{{IUNote|Title=Our Time to Shine|Text=Get yourself ready boys, the Grand Auction is finally here! The guards will be busy so this will be our time to finally reward ourselves with their gold. Join me on the roof and we commence ... unless you decide to run with your tails between your legs. Chicken.}}
*'''Basim:''' ''Hmm, suspicious activity on the rooftops...''
[]
*'''Merchant:''' ''Ahlan, Ahlan! (welcome, welcome!) Come upstairs and look at my wares, ya sadeeqi! Things you have never seen before in Baghdad! Exotic Chinese artifacts, here only! Nowhere else! Don't be shy! Come closer and be amazed at my selection upstairs!''
*'''Basim:''' ''As-salamu 'alaikum. You mentioned Chinese artifacts?''
*'''Merchant:''' ''Yes friend, welcome, welcome! You will surely find something of interest here!''
[]
*'''Merchant:''' ''Longing for the exquisite, ya sadeeqi? I have ornaments that hail from the far East on auction! Rare vases, delicate tea cups ... but the hairpin is my prize! One of a kind, a beauty even the Treasurer asked about!''
*'''Basim:''' ''Wait, the hairpin? Where is it?''
*'''Merchant:''' ''It's going to be up on auction! If you wish to purchase it, make sure to bring a good bag of coin!''
*'''Basim:''' ''A hairpin, from the East. This must be the item Al-Kullulu was after for the Treasurer. I must look out for it at the auction.''
[]
*'''Qabiha:''' ''Tardiness is not something the Treasurer appreciates.''
[]
*'''Perfume Supplier:''' ''... not something we can rush, ya sayyidati (my lady).''
*'''Qabiha:''' ''The Treasurer will not be happy. Neither will I.''
*'''Perfume Supplier:''' ''I know that. The perfume creation is complex. We are already doing our best.''
*'''Qabiha:''' ''Your best is not enough.''
*'''Perfume Supplier:''' ''Come, we talk elsewhere. There are ears in the walls.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''That woman mentioned the Treasurer. I should keep my ears close.''
[]
*'''Qabiha:''' ''The Treasurer is fond of the Qina', as you know. No one is more unhappy when three dozen bottles go missing.''
*'''Perfume Supplier:''' ''With the harbor witholding our supplies, production has been slow, ya sayyidati. Certain ... incidents there have also made our situation difficult.''
[]
*'''Qabiha:''' ''You are not telling me exactly what it is we are missing.''
*'''Perfume Supplier:''' ''The ... blood, my lady.''
*'''Qabiha:''' ''The blood is essential in the scent. It is what makes the Qina' perfume special. We must have it.''
*'''Perfume Supplier:''' ''I will talk to the Caliph, see what we can do. The Treasurer will have to wait for her supply.''
*'''Basim:''' ''This perfume on the Tax Collector's letters ... I thought it smelled like iron. Was it blood? This woman could be from the Caliph's inner circle. She knows the Treasurer ... I must speak to her.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''As-salamu 'alaikum, ya sayyidati.''
*'''Qabiha:''' ''Wa 'alaikum as-salam.''
*'''Basim:''' ''I could not help but overhear, sayyidati, about the perfume...''
*'''Qabiha:''' ''It is not courteous to eavesdrop. Seeing as you are an admirer, you are pardoned. My name is Qabiha, the woman behind the Qina'.''
*'''Basim:''' ''It has a unique scent.''
*'''Qabiha:''' ''Rose, honey, sandalwood ... and if you heard, a sliver of blood.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Blood ... I should have guessed. I had thought it might be iron.''
*'''Qabiha:''' ''Blood is born from iron, is it not? But because of that detail, it proves difficult to bring in large quantities.''
*'''Basim:''' ''If it is so exclusive it must be popular amongst officials I think I caught a scent of it near the Treasurer...''
*'''Qabiha:''' ''Ning uses the Qina'. She is quite taken with its rich mystique, as are many. Curious. You do not look like one who is interested in the art of perfumery.''
*'''Basim:''' ''It is unwise to judge someone by how they look.''
*'''Qabiha:''' ''Indeed. Did I not catch your name?''
*'''Basim:''' ''Basim.''
*'''Qabiha:''' ''Basim.''
*'''Basim:''' ''I must not waste any more of your time. I wish you a wonderful time at the Da'irat Al-mal, ya sayyidati.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''So, the Treasurer is a she ... and her name is Ning.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''Here.''
*'''Kong:''' ''Little finch delivers once again! Just the very thing I need to complete my set!''
*'''Basim:''' ''I thought this was yours...''
*'''Kong:''' ''It is now! Anyway, listen close... I was having my usual afternoon tea when I overheard two ladies speaking about an order they fulfilled for the Da'irat Al-mal. They made a beautiful robe for the Treasurer with intricate eastern embroidery. Open your eyes to that!''
*'''Basim:''' ''Eastern wear? Thank you, Kong.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''The Treasurer is likely a foreigner from the East.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''The auction should be starting soon.''
[]
*'''The Host:''' ''Marhaban, As-salamu 'alaikum, Yassas, ni hao, hello! It is the time of year again to fulfill your deepest yearning, to listen to your heart's desire and purchase what God has shown us! It brings me great joy to welcome all of you esteemed individuals to our annual Da'irat Al-mal!''
A woman walked on stage carrying an elephant statue and placed it on a table near the host.
*'''The Host:''' ''First on our exclusive, captivating list of exotic odds and ends, we have a stunning statue from India. Made of ivory and crafted by the finest artisans, it will be a perfect addiciton to any home!''
A man in the crowd raised his arm.
*'''The Host:''' ''Oh, what do we have! One bidder already.''
Another person raised their arm.
*'''The Host:''' ''No, two! Calling once, twice...''
Qabiha raised her arm as well.
*'''The Host:''' ''A third! Would anyone like to best that price? NO? Sold! This piece goes to the lovely lady.''
[]
*'''The Host:''' ''Next, we have a one of a kind ethereal beauty. This hairpin hails from the East, and look at the detail on the dragon! Perfect as a colletible, and even better as a gift for a certain lady friend you might have.''
The host noticed Ning had just arrived on a balcony overlooking the auction.
*'''The Host:''' ''S-so, what is this piece worth to you, ya asdiqa'i (my friends)?''
Ning whispered to one of her companions, who raised his hand.
*'''The Host:''' ''O-one! For the Treasurer who graced us with her presence.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Ning, the Treasurer.''
A man in black also raised his hand.
*'''The Host:''' ''Two! Any others?''
[RAISE A HAND (150)]
*'''The Host:''' ''We have a third, there!''
The man in black raised his hand again.
*'''The Host:''' ''Ho! Two owns it again! Number three, what will you do? How much do you want this, my friends! Reach into your heart, listen to your desire!''
[RAISE A HAND 500]
*'''Basim:''' ''No one? Then, sold! To the handsome bearded man! This hairpin belongs to you now, sayyidi. Now, for the third item...''
[]
*'''The Host:''' ''...and we thank you, once again, for making the Da'irat Al-mal a success! May your purses be ever full, and your hear ever longing!''
[]
*'''Cvilian:''' ''Did you see her? Her calmness, her grace ... like a lone, shining star against a sark night. If only I could speak to her.''
[]
*'''Rich Merchant:''' ''I have an appointment with the Treasurer. Move aside.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Apologies. My instructions were clear. No brooch, no entry.''
*'''Rich Merchant:''' ''Do you know who I am? I need to speak to the Treasurer! I was called, summoned!''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''As-salamu 'alaikum, I am here to see the Treasurer.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''On what business?''
*'''Basim:''' ''I have a gift for the Treasurer, if she will see me.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Only members of The Ivory Coin are allowed to enter. No brooch, no entry.''
[]
*'''Merchant:''' ''This is proof that I am of the Merchant's Guild! Look! See!''
*'''Spice Merchant:''' ''With respect, that does not entitle you to three bags of saffron, two of vanilla, and a bottle of honey without a single coin.''
*'''Merchant:''' ''Impossible! Bah, this is a waste of my time!''
[]
*'''Spice Merchant:''' ''Hello, spices for you?''
*'''Basim:''' ''Trouble with customers?''
*'''Spice Merchant:''' ''No more than usual. These people from The Ivory Coin think themselves touched by God himself.''
*'''Basim:''' ''The Ivory Coin?''
*'''Spice Merchant:''' ''I ... I should not speak about it. I do not know much, really.''
<tabber>
|-|(Offer token to Bribe)=
*'''Basim:''' ''Whatever you know can help me.''
*'''Spice Merchant:''' ''Well ... it will not hurt to tell you what I know. The Ivory Coin is an exclusive merchant's guild. They have a brooch that grants them access to certain places.''
*'''Basim:''' ''How do you obtain this brooch?''
*'''Spice Merchant:''' ''I hear only respected merchants are part of The Ivory Coin, and that you can only be invited by another member. They think their status gives them permission to take goods without coin. Hmph. Have you ever seen such vanity?''
*'''Basim:''' ''This is expected in Karkh. Thank you.''
|-|(Offer coin to Bribe)=
|-|Never mind.=
</tabber>
[]
*'''Soldier:''' ''No brooch, no entry. You know how this works.''
*'''Civilian:''' ''Yes, but I left my brooch in there! Do you not see the problem here?''
*'''Soldier:''' ''No brooch, no entry.''
*'''Civilian:''' ''La'anak Allah!''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''An exclusive union for the merchants of high society. I should have expected this to exist.''
[]
*'''Soldier:''' ''I do not care what you have to do! Burn them, or murder their dogs if you have to!''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Understood, sayyidi. We will retrieve your coin from the merchatn's stall on the morrow, at all cost.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Why not today? Gah. You lot are getting more incompetent by the day. Useless.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''This must be The Ivory Coin's brooch. Shiny.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''I have both trinkets. The guard will have to let me in now.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''As-salamu 'alaikum.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''You again. What is it now?''
*'''Basim:''' ''I have something that she wants. A Chinese hairpin, form the auction. I also have my brooch with me, here.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Very well. You may enter.''
[]
*'''Soldier:''' ''This way, sayyidi.''
*'''Basim:''' ''I have been looking forward to meeting the Treasurer. It is an honor.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Indeed, sayyidi. She is busy and her time only allows for a few rare appearances.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''I have never seen so many treasures in one place.''
[]
*'''Ning:''' ''This is of inferior make. I wonder if you really are the expert you claim to be.''
*'''Civilian:''' ''This plate is priceless, I swear it! Treasurer, Ning, if only you--''
*'''Ning:''' ''Go. Leave the vase, but get the plate out of my sight. Perhaps the dogs in the souq can use it for their meals.''
[]
*'''Civilian:''' ''Her standards are too high. One has to be careful not to get bitten in there.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Please refrain from speaking about the Treasurer inappropriately.''
[]
*'''Soldier:''' ''You may enter.''
[]
*'''Ning:''' ''You are a new face.''
*'''Basim:''' ''My name is Basim. New to Baghdad, but not to trade. I deal mostly in fine antiques and collectibles.''
*'''Ning:''' ''You must have a good eye for detail then. What have you brought me, Basim?''
*'''Basim:''' ''You know what I brought.''
*'''Ning:''' ''A man not to be toyed with. Come, show it to me!''
[]
*'''Ning:''' ''Exquisite. Ever seen something like this? So perfect, so delicate.''
*'''Basim:''' ''No, but I am surprised that you have not.''
*'''Ning:''' ''I do have a penchant for them. When I was but a child, my sisters and I would tie our hair with sticks, adorn them with stone. I pretended they were the rarest gems. We had nothing, but we felt that we had it all. There are many reasons why people see me. For advice, a taste of power, and most often to win favor. Why have you come, Basim?''
*'''Basim:''' ''As a fellow collector, I have heard much about you from others. Your extravagance, your taste. I wish to learn.''
*'''Ning:''' ''Did they say I was lucky? I loathe the word. When I first arrived in Baghdad I was one of many seeking my fortune. Now, I have even the East wrapped around my fingers. I clawed my way here when many gave up, preferring to spare their nails. But me, I don't mind a few scratches, a bit of blood.''
*'''Basim:''' ''Surely there have been connections, the people you met that helped you get where you are.''
*'''Ning:''' ''No matter what others say, you only have yourself. No one else.''
[]
*'''Ning:''' ''"Everything prospers when family is harmonious." Family? The word has no meaning. The notions even more so. Only the self hears the deepest whispers of your soul and accepts you whole.''
*'''Basim:''' ''No one lives alone.''
*'''Ning:''' ''But we die lonely. In the end, we are absolutely, simply, truly alone.''
[]
*'''Basim:''' ''The ... the jinni ... again... I ... I should return to the Bureau.''
[]
*'''Soldier:''' ''The Treasurer, she's dead! Guards, help! Someone killed the Treasurer!''

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.
