Involvement

Act Three

Vistra is in Bloomridge Park lamenting the state of the Flaming Fists to  Avourel,  Eldaernth, and  Thokki. She believes the Fists are too reliant on the Steel Watch and no longer know how to properly fight.

Idle banter

• Vistra

  'Absolute' this... 'end of the world' that... These young folk've no idea how good they've got it.

• Eldaernth

  Come off it, Vistra. You've been doing this same rant for years.

• Avourel

  Yeah, the first lot of young folk you said it about are old folk now!

• Vistra

  Piss off, the lot of youse.

• Eldaernth

  You're remembering the past pretty fondly, Vistra. Bit too fondly.

• Vistra

  What d'you mean?

• Eldaernth

  You telling me you'd have refused the Steel Watch's help on Returning Day a decade ago?

• Vistra

  You'll, uh... remind me?

• Eldaernth

  Big horrible beast? Slaughtered Duke Adrian? We could do bugger all about it?

• Thokki

  Lost a lot of good men that day.

• Vistra

  You make a good point, Eldaernth.

• Eldaernth

  You've known me long enough, Vistra. When haven't I?

• Vistra

  We could've used the Steel Watch back in the day. But that's because we fought actual threats. Back when the Fists were real Fists. Not bloody...

• Avourel

  Limp gloves.

• Eldaernth

  So, Vistra. You reckon we'd still be better Fists than the current cohort?

• Vistra

  Peace of piss, mate. Easy. Yes.

• Eldaernth

  Great. So let's get you out of that chair and into your chain mail, then? Show the young lot how it's done?

• Vistra

  Uh... Well...

• Thokki

  My armour's not fit for years.

• Avourel

  Yeah, to be honest? Thought of holding a pike makes my back ache.

• Eldaernth

  It's a young man's game. Right, Vistra?

• Vistra

  'Spose.

• Vistra

  Look, all I'm saying is they've got it easier these days.

• Thokki

  Yeah, we didn't have these big metal bastards running the streets back in my day.

• Eldaernth

  Thanks to the bloody Iron Crisis we barely had any metal back then.

• Vistra

  You're right, you're right. We Fists had to proper fight back then. We knew how to watch each other's backs.

• Eldaernth

  Helm give me strength.

• Eldaernth

  Not seen action like that in a while. (After the ambush in Bloomridge Park)

• Vistra

  Those cultists are lucky they were on the other side of the park. Lucky.

• Avourel

  You'd have taken them, would you, Vistra?

• Vistra

  Reckon so.

• Eldaernth

  Bollocks. These days we'd sooner throw our backs than a proper punch.

• Thokki

  Well, I, for one, count my lucky stars it happened elsewhere.

• Avourel

  Same here. My knees are buggered already, never mind running after cultists.
