The insane Pharaoh has been overthrown again, and his accursed sanctuary may soon join him in the crumbling space beyond eterinity. You should report your triumph, and your betrayal by Orochi, to Temple Hall. The corporation's involvement here and on Solomon Island cannot be a coincidence.
Dialogue
Tier 1
- Richard Sonnac: Come in, come in, I do live for these little tete-a-tetes.
- Richard Sonnac: Don't fret over the betrayal.
- Richard Sonnac: If you absolutely must punish yourself, I think we have a wardrobe of hair shirts in here somewhere.
- Richard Sonnac: In that desert, you proved two long-held Templar beliefs.
- Richard Sonnac: One, we can trust no one outside of the establishment.
- Richard Sonnac: Two, the stain of unfinished business never truly fades.
- Richard Sonnac: Attempting to contain darkness is to bet on a losing game.
- Richard Sonnac: If there is a homicidal genie trapped in a bottle,
- Richard Sonnac: the only question is if, not when, it will be uncorked.
- Richard Sonnac: Oh, and by whom.
- Richard Sonnac: This Orochi Group, this... (sighs) this corporation.
- Richard Sonnac: In polite language, they pose a "delicate diplomatic situation."
- Richard Sonnac: Nothing like the Illuminati, where we can strike a balance between forced civility and open resentment.
- Richard Sonnac: That builds character.
- Richard Sonnac: No, the Orochi Group have...
- Richard Sonnac: lobbying power inside the secret world, inside the Council.
- Richard Sonnac: Their media empire could compromise everything we have worked for with one broadsheet cover, or 60-minute special.
- Richard Sonnac: (sighs) Our hands are bound.
- Richard Sonnac: We can react to a situation in Egypt or New England, but we must wait for fools to rush in first.
- Richard Sonnac: A role that Orochi seems keen to oblige.
- Richard Sonnac: So I couldn't possibly ask you to rummage around in their affairs.
- Richard Sonnac: Well. You look parched.
- Richard Sonnac: Perhaps you should stop by the Horned God for a drink.
Tier 2
- Zamira Vata: (To Konrad Engel) There is no way that was a fair fight. I'm telling you, it was bloody rigged.
- Konrad Engel: I may have little faith left in humanity, but I do have faith in the Council's rigid attention to rules.
- Konrad Engel: There is no chance in hell the game was rigged.
- Konrad Engel: You owe me a pint of lager.
- Zamira Vata: Rigged! Look, I lost the wager, all right? I won't argue about that. But it was still rigged.
- Zamira Vata: (To the bartender) Luella! Two more pints, please!
- Zamira Vata: (Noticing you trying to flag the bartender as well) I remember you.
- Konrad Engel: Ach, another one? Where do you find them, in a catalogue?
- Zamira Vata: Passed out on the street, yeah? The Fallen King should carry a warning sign.
- Zamira Vata: Well, look at you, all grown up and back from the front lines.
- Zamira Vata: Make that three pints, Luella love.
- Konrad Engel: Cheers, mate.
- Zamira Vata: So, what's Egypt like these days?
- Konrad Engel: I hear "Biblical" is the word. More importantly, how is Amparo Osorio?
- Konrad Engel: We used to work together on the Council. Lovely girl...
- Konrad Engel: stunning breasts.
- Zamira Vata: For fuck's sake, Konrad. Who cares about breasts at a time like this?
- Zamira Vata: I want to know what the Orochis think they're up to.
- Konrad Engel: In my experience, where the Orochi Group is concerned, the question is never if they are up to something, but rather what they are up to.
- Zamira Vata: What do you mean?
- Konrad Engel: Na, on the Council, we dealt with Orochi on a daily basis.
- Konrad Engel: Their operations were often in conflict with ours, requiring diplomatic attention.
- Konrad Engel: Of all their subsidiaries, Valí in particular caused us many headaches.
- Zamira Vata: Valí? Remind me.
- Konrad Engel: Officially...genetics, bioengineering.
- Konrad Engel: Unofficially, they are heavily invested in occult research.
- Konrad Engel: There were persistent rumours of experiments on human subjects,
- Konrad Engel: that they were...creating their own army of secret world soldiers.
- Konrad Engel: I was silly enough to ask questions, hm?
- Konrad Engel: And here I am, stripped of office and diplomatic status.
- Zamira Vata: Oh yeah, I thought that was 'cause of inappropriate behaviour?
- Konrad Engel: Mm...ja, that didn't help at the tribunal,
- Konrad Engel: but the Templars were never particularly bothered about political correctness.
- Konrad Engel: However, you were never supposed to speak of the Orochi Group.
- Konrad Engel: That was verboten.
- Konrad Engel: Em, there is an office right here in London. In the very shadows of Temple Hall.
- Zamira Vata: You serious? I never heard about that.
- Konrad Engel: Precisely.
- Konrad Engel: I find it very hard to believe that I know this, however, and our overlords at Temple Hall do not.
- Konrad Engel: But that is all I'm going to say on the subject.
- Konrad Engel: Now I will drink this beer and discuss the latest results from the secret war with Miss Vata, as is my wont.
Tier 4
- Callie James: Váli? Who's asking?
- John Galahad: Alarums and excursions! Oh.
- Callie James: Yeah, I know them. When Gran had me hospitalised.
- Callie James: Institutionalised.
- Callie James: Amity House smelled like dead fridges. Ozone. No plants, no windows. No mirrors.
- Callie James: So many pills, all the colours of a fake rainbow.
- Callie James: They told me they would make the voices stop, make my episodes stop.
- Callie James: And they were right. I never heard Gaia's voice all the time I was in there.
- Callie James: But it was all fun and games when the restraints came off. They would hook me up to a machine, tape my finger to a button.
- Callie James: Show me photos, survey maps, symbols. I tried everything.
- Callie James: Pressing it all the time, or not at all. When I was really doped up, I'd tap out the beat to love songs.
- Callie James: One day they just threw me out into the greasy rain.
- Callie James: Didn't care who I told, they knew no one would believe me.
- Callie James: God, I couldn't believe it. Even the bad guys didn't want me.
- Callie James: I was the wrong kind of freak.
- John Galahad: There, there, there.
- Callie James: This isn't because I"m upset....
- Callie James: I'm angry!
Tier 5
- Richard Sonnac: Never say we don't keep you on your toes.
- Richard Sonnac: An opportunity has opened for us in Romania.
- Richard Sonnac: Transylvania, to be exact, so you can guess the thrust of it.
- Richard Sonnac: Once the stomping grounds of the Wallachian prince Vlad Dracula.
- Richard Sonnac: His knightly order was loosely, very loosely, affiliated with ours.
- Richard Sonnac: Certainly he had the right ideas.
- Richard Sonnac: His methods however, were as extreme as the stories suggest.
- Richard Sonnac: I hazard that the man was demented in the end.
- Richard Sonnac: Whatever that end was, the creatures that bear his myth,
- Richard Sonnac: the vampires, outlived him, and have been throttling the life from the country ever since.
- Richard Sonnac: Now an army of the beasts have gathered in the Carpathian foothills.
- Richard Sonnac: An army unafraid of sun, of discovery, of the fact that their medieval reenactment is five hundred years out of date.
- Richard Sonnac: WE have been sanctioned by the Council to destroy them.
- Richard Sonnac: Actually, I'm getting ahead of myself. We expect to be be sanctioned. By the time it's over with.
- Richard Sonnac: Um, one more detail.
- Richard Sonnac: The Orochi Group has a project in the mountains, from which we understand
- Richard Sonnac: there has been a distress call.
- Richard Sonnac: I think it would be an act of chivalry to give it our full attention, don't you?
- Richard Sonnac: Happy hunting.
- Richard Sonnac: And pass my warmest regards on to Carmen.
