That was impressive. Impressive indeed. [k] @Cursed Arm The great founder would behead me if I were to let such a formidable force go. He would say, “A blind man has no need for a skull.” [k] [charaFace E 0] @Cursed Arm [%1], Lady Mash, Sir Bedivere... [k] @Cursed Arm Let me be the one to ask you. Would you please fight alongside us? [k] @Cursed Arm I can't promise any rewards... But on my honor as an Old Man of the Mountain, I swear to take you to the Lion King. [k] ?1:The pleasure is ours. ?2:That'd be the best reward! ?! [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaTalk H] [charaFace H 0] [charaFadein H 0.1 1] @Arash Then it's settled. I thought we were already buddies at the point when [%1] came to the village, but... [k] @Arash We've each got our positions to protect. Especially Hassan, who's an Old Man of the Mountain. [k] [charaFadeout H 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Cursed Arm Let me introduce myself properly. I am Hassan-i Sabbah. [k] @Cursed Arm I became the leader of the religious sect born in this land, but assassination is my occupation now. [k] @Cursed Arm The heads of our sect are all given the names “Hassan” and “Old Man of the Mountain.” We succeed our great founder's name. [k] @Cursed Arm There is usually only one Hassan per era, but in the current situation, other Old Men of the Mountain have been summoned. [k] @Cursed Arm We've abandoned our pride as assassins and revealed ourselves, protecting each of our villages as leaders. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 1] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Mash I see. Thank you for explaining. [k] @Mash I'm Mash Kyrielight. It's nice to meet you. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 4] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Bedivere Bedivere, Knight of the Round Table. [k] @Bedivere [line 3]Thank you, Lord Hassan, for trusting someone like me. [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 4] [charaFadein E 0.1 0] [charaFace D 4] [charaFadein D 0.1 2] @Cursed Arm ...It's fine. If anything, I shouldn't have been so stubborn. [k] @Cursed Arm You fought for our people at the gates of the Holy City, [k] @Cursed Arm even abandoning your objective of closing in on the Lion King. How can I not trust such an act? [k] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 3] [wt 1.0] [charaFace D 1] @Bedivere Thank you, Hassan-i Sabbah. O righteous Old Man of the Mountain, you give me too much credit. [k] [charaFace E 2] @Cursed Arm Hahaha. No need to thank me. After all, I'm the only one who trusts you, Sir. [k] @Cursed Arm I can't guarantee what the other Hassans will think of you.

[k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [communicationCharaClear] [wait communicationChara] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Cursed Arm Well then, let me take you to our headquarters. [k] @Cursed Arm It's quite deserted now, but my fellow Hassans will be coming in from all over within a few days. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaTalk H] [charaFace H 0] [charaFadein H 0.1 1] @Arash Yes. They are few, but they are elite, able fighters. Not nearly enough to recapture the Holy City, though. [k] [charaFadeout H 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace H 0] [charaFadein H 0.1 0] [charaFace D 4] [charaFadein D 0.1 2] @Bedivere ...Former militia, actually. But still humans nonetheless. [k] @Bedivere Against Enforcement Knights receiving the Lion King's protection, let alone Knights of the Round Table[line 3] [k] [charaFace H 4] @Arash Yes, they can't hope to win. It'll be up to us to do something about that. [k] @Arash Servants for Servants. Right, Cursed Arm? [k] [charaFadeout H 0.1] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Cursed Arm Naturally. That's why I have been trying to gather as many Old Men of the Mountain as I can, but... [k] @Cursed Arm Hassan of the Trembling Pipe lost to Lancelot, and Hassan of the Peeling Shadows lost to Gawain. [k] @Cursed Arm I hope the best assassin among us, Hassan of the Intoxicating Smoke, will answer the call... [k] ?1:There really are a lot! [charaFace E 1] @Cursed Arm Of course. We Old Men of the Mountain are a religious sect that spans eighteen generations since our great founder. [k] ?2:...By Intoxicating Smoke, could it be... [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 4] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Mash ...Hassan. Um, during our journey here...

So that's what happened to him... [k] @Cursed Arm “This will be a war of attrition. Do not stir up trouble with the Lion King.” [k] @Cursed Arm Those were his words as he parted with me, but... To think that he'd name me at the end... [k] @Cursed Arm ...You have my thanks, [%1]. I won't let his regrets die in vain. [k] ?! [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_25 0.7] @G:Refugee Man Boss! Boss!

[k] @Arash [line 3]A red dragon, and red lightning severing its head[line 3] Do you recognize this crest, Lord Cursed Arm? [k] @Cursed Arm Oooooooh! This is bad! They'll be slaughtered!
