Save the Children - Gatehouse, San d'Oria
San d'Orian Gate Guard: Ah, the recruit's back again? I'm sorry, but I've not time for you today. San d'Orian Gate Guard: Oh, who am I fooling? Of course I could use your help! San d'Orian Gate Guard: Have you not heard? Orcs came and kidnapped some children! We think they're keeping them at their lair in Ghelsba. San d'Orian Gate Guard: Why, not long ago came ill news from the cathedral. A boy training to be a friar went near Ghelsba and did not return. His name was Tedimout. San d'Orian Gate Guard: The Royal Knights would march to his rescue, but Prince Trion is away in the north, and cannot give the order. San d'Orian Gate Guard: Prince Pieuje is in earnest deliberations over whether to send Temple Knights instead. It seems his efforts are focused upon saving the children, but... San d'Orian Gate Guard: But no matter. We need knowledge of the enemy. You must visit the cathedral and ask what this boy looks like.	(None)
Save the Children - Cathedral, Northern San d'Oria
Arnau: Oh, an adventurer. If you are here for the sermon on the Gates of Paradise, beseech the friar standing at the narthex. Arnau: You say you come on behalf of the Temple Knights? And you want to know about Tedimout? Arnau: Why, may Altana bless thee! Yes Tedimout was a friar in training. Arnau: Oft would he enter the woods of Ronfaure, in search of wild herbs for making of tea and medicines. Arnau: Ever did I warn him against going alone, for the trees can hide predators...and worse! Arnau: He claimed that the blue robes of the clergy would protect him. Arnau: But it seems his faith was ill-placed. I fear that Orcs took him! Arnau: The horror he must be facing now... Each morning and night I pray to Goddess of the Dawn to deliver him from their clutches! (Prince Pieuje and Papsque Shamonde approach.) Arnau: Why, Prince Pieuje! And, Papsque Shamonde! Pieuje: Vicasque Arnau, I've come to talk to you about the missing acolyte. It seems his disappearance may not have been the Orcs' doing after all. Shamonde: That is correct, Your Highness. I hear that Tedimout sometimes went into forest to look for herbs. Shamonde: Lets us not jump to conclusions. Perhaps Tedimout set out on his own...for an extended hike, for example! Temple Knights are sent out only in special cases. First we must know more! Pieuje: You speak the truth, Your Holiness. The citadel cannot be emptied of Temple Knights for so uncertain a cause. Arnau: I understand, of course. However... If it were true that Tedimout did happen to be kidnapped by Orcs, surely we could not simply let him die? Pieuje: No, of course not. I have decided to send an adventurer. If he finds that Orcs do hold the boy, then the Temple Knights will be there to claim him. Arnau: I understand, Your Highness. I am very thankful. Pieuje: By the way, who have you been talking with? Arnau: Your Highness, <Player Name> is here on errand from the knight at the gatehouse. He came to ask about Tedimout. Pieuje: Well, that's perfect. I shall order you to undertake this mission. Pieuje: Infiltrate Ghelsba, and determine whether they hold this Tedimout captive. I've heard they keep prisoners in a small hut somewhere. Pieuje: Once you know, notify a Temple Knight. Now, go! (Pieuje and Shamonde walk away.)	(None)
Save the Children - Orcish Hut, Ghelsba Outpost
(You approach the Orcish Hut when, suddenly, 3 Orcs appear behind you!) Fodderchief Vokdek: Smells like people... People! Get them! Throw into sheep hut!!! (After defeating the Orcs.) Fodderchief Vokdek: You think you won!? Fodderchief Vokdek: Your time soon end! Fodderchief Vokdek: Your days is numbered! Me say so! (Fodderchief Vokdek escapes and drops an Orcish Hut Key. As you attempt to unlock the door, Prince Trion and his two Royal Knights walk toward you). Trion: Wait! Trion: You are the adventurer that Pieuje sent, are you not? Trion: Bravely have you fought against Orcs. Well done! Trion: On behalf of my spineless brother, I thank you. Trion: He had not the strength to save one boy, and so sent an adventurer in his stead. Trion: Indeed he is dirt upon the name of House d'Oraguille. Trion: Well, enough blather. Lets us save the boy. Open the door! (Prince Trion enters the hut.) Trion: Is anyone here? Tedimout: Why, Your Highness! Trion: You are Tedimout? From the cathedral? Tedimout: Yes, it's me! Truly I am grateful you came, Your Highness! Trion: I am relieved he seems well. I will bring the boy back to San d'Oria. Trion: You have my thanks, adventurer. I will inform the guards of your deeds. Now, let us be off!	(None)
Save the Children - Gatehouse, San d'Oria
(After rescuing Tedimout and returning to San d'Oria.) San d'Orian Gate Guard: Prince Trion just informed me of your handiwork. You've done beautifully. San d'Orian Gate Guard: Due to your exemplary contribution, <Player Name>, San d'Oria hereby recognizes you as an adventurer of rank two. San d'Orian Gate Guard: But do not let it go to your head. This certificate is valid only in San d'Oria. San d'Orian Gate Guard: Work hard and better things will come, my friend. Someday your name will be know to our allies as well. San d'Orian Gate Guard: Oh, and one more thing. the vicasque of the cathedral said he wants to thank you on behalf of the boy.	(None)
Save the Children - Cathedral, Northern San d'Oria
Arnau: You have my eternal thanks for saving Tedimout! Tedimout: Thank you, <Player Name> Arnau: All I can do is pray for adventurers. Please, let me pray for you, too. Arnau: May light shine upon thy path, and may the Gates of Paradise open to you! (Papsque Shamonde looks down at Arnau and Tedimout from 2nd level of the Cathedral.) Shamonde: So, Tedimout has returned... Confound that meddling adventurer!	(None)
