| - Negotiator Sah'Teece: We've been made! - has to be a bug
- Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, you find this. It was Captain Grool's next set of orders. It doesn't name the target, but from the location and amount of forces they're preparing, the only possible victim of the next assassination attempt must be Lady Grey herself!
- This batch of destroyed equipment was going to be the portal disrupter that the Renegade Swords were planning to use. If it had been assembled and triggered, it might have been able to break the interdimensional conduit between our world and the alternate reality the Rikti come from. Unfortunately, that would have also shattered the barriers between the two universes, collapsing them in on each other, or worse. You have to wonder just how often the entire universe is placed on the brink of destruction by something like this.
- Before combat: The prisoner swallowed a poison capsule? This is madness!
- At 50% Life: You fight well, but your cause is lost.
- This unfinished but well-researched report details one Agent Ikah's theories about recent Vanguard activity. Ikah lays out the probability of a renegade branch within the Vanguard and then analyzes their recent actions. His conclusion is that if they make an attempt on Lady Grey's life and fail, they'll likely take a desperate measure to cut off what they see as the source of all their problems at the source, and made an attempt to destroy the conduit between our world and the Rikti Homeworld. It sounds like a good idea, but as Ikah points out, the barriers between Earth and Rikti Earth are so weak right now, such an action could have unimaginably bad consequences.
- Capt. W.M. Dietrich: Even if you defeat me now, I'll still know the truth!
- If left behind: Character, We have lost track of you.
- There is a massive amount of data here, a record of every transmission made by a Vanguard Unit. It looks like they sorted them all by branch. There are even separate files for the Renegades' transmissions. The listening post must have assumed they were a new branch.
- All Vanguard personnel are to stand down!
:Vanguard soldier:
Can't you see? This is the only way!
- This laptop belongs to Lt. Ceres. It's full of mad, paranoid ranting about how the Vanguard has lost its way, and may now be too 'weak' to do the job that the writer feels must be done.
- Negotiator Sah'Teece: Protest: Innocence! Occupation: Diplomat! Prior Actions: Non-Hostile!
- After defeating a player: How did it come to this?
- At the mission exit: Sincere Expression: Thanks.
- BWAH-HA-HA! Let's fight, then!
- Before combat: You don't go any farther.
- But how could he believe you could be trusted?
- This handwritten letter is unfinished and discarded, probably an early draft. It's addressed to a woman named 'Martha", and attempts to explain the deep regrets the author feels regarding the harsh actions he and the rest of the Sword must undertake for the good of humanity. It's unaddressed and unfinished, so there's no way to know who Martha was, or if she ever recieved it.
- Lt. Ceres: Don't bother us with your petty concerns, Longbowman.
Lt. Sefu Tendaji: Ah, Character! Perhaps you can help me with your fellow Vanguard?
- Combat start: No one can stop the power of Flint!
- Combat start: So, it is down to this, then, is it?
- Combat start: This is your choice, then.
- After you met up with him, Lt. Sefu Tendaji took a moment to speak to you:
'I came here to find a missing diplomat. We discovered that he had been taken here by Vanguard agents. I thought that there would be no problems, but this is madness! I have fought alongside the Vanguard, I have even defended the Vanguard to my superiors, but to be attacked like this? It is even more troubling that you seem unsurprised.
Well, I know I can still trust you. Let us find the diplomat, together.'
- Defeated: We'll show you...
- Lt. Further: Come on, Men! Get Character!
:Captain Nin:
Captain Nin: There you are!
- Lt. Sefu Tendaji: ''We have tracked the missing diplomat here. Is there some reason I cannot meet with him?
- If refound: Emotional Status: Relieved.
- Lt. Further:
- Lt. Further: My triumph will be glorious!
- At 25% Life: Ms. Liberty has ordered Vanguard shut down, and Captain Dietrich will see it done.
- Once free: Let us finish this unpleasant business.
- Defeated: You won a good fight. Now let me tell you something.
- At the mission exit: An admirable performance, Character. We shall see you back at headquarters.
- Something's happened to that patrol!
- Su'Uul: Pondering: Hmmmm
- Technician Kan: Aaah!
- Technician Stoji: Aw, man!
- Vanguard Ranger: ''He's, uh, busy.
- Vanguard Ranger: How do we put this together?
- Vanguard Ranger: Non-hostile, he says!
- Vanguard Ranger: We've got to protect this!
- We're so close! Can't lose now!
- What must be done...
- You're too weak to do...
- Capt. W.M. Dietrich: Vanguard will be revealed for the traitors you all are!
- Captain Nin: Time for a little help!
:Colonel Toros:
Colonel Toros: Don't let them escape!
- Lady Grey: We are becoming most exasperated by these attempts on Our person.
- The Diplomat's name was Bill J. Wylde, a former astronaut and one of the chief proponents of opening talks with the Rikti Traditionalist faction. He was definitely killed by Vanguard weapons, from behind at close range. This was an assassination, and whether or not the people responsible were renegades, Bill Wylde's death is going to cause a lot of trouble with Longbow.
- Capt. W.M. Dietrich: What is your real agenda? You will answer me!
- You found some of the information you were looking for, but not everything, and you can't ask Captain Racer for more. He swallowed a poison capsule, opting to die rather than reveal his secrets to Longbow... Or you.
- If left behind: Character, we must stand together!
If refound: Thank you. Let us continue.
- Capt. W.M. Dietrich: Sefu was right, you are dangerous...
- If you weren't a member of Vanguard, this Cipher would take serious effort to decode. But with your training, it only takes a few moments to read the names of the negotiators and diplomats this squad has been assigned to murder. The evidence is plain, but leaves you with more questions.
- Before combat: Has there been any sign of Character?
Combat start: I was wondering when you'd show up!
