Dialogue and Mail

Introduction

Upon speaking with Reth

Player

What's in that locked box?

Reth

I don't know and I don't want to know.

Zeki told me if I tried to pick the lock, I'd have to figure out how to do my job one handed.

As it turns out I'm kind of attached to both of my hands, so...yeah, I've left it alone.

Player

Doesn't sound worth it.

Reth

Glad we're on the same page here. I wouldn't want you going to look for the key...

Player

I'm not scared of Zeki!

Reth

Well, if you want to look for the key, it might be a challenge.

Player

Who needs hands? I'd rather know what's in the box.

Reth

Well, if you want to look for the key, it might be a challenge.

I heard he hid it where "no man can survive"...whatever that means.

Letters found in the locked chest

My dear Zeki-kins,

I know it's out of the ordinary for me to be writing you like this, but I just wanted to say I've been watching you from a distance and I'm proud of the Grimalkin you have become. Don't let that mess with Zed keep you down, I know you'll earn your fiscal freedom in no time.

- Ma

 ‹  1 / 3  › 

Thank you so much for writing me back. Again, I understand how unusual this relationship is, but it means the world to me. I've included some of the fishcakes you used to like as a kitten. Eat up, I know your journey to the valley will be a tough one. - Ma

 ‹  2 / 3  › 

This will be the last time I write to you. I am afraid my superiors are growing suspicious that I may still be attached to you. I suggest you burn our previous correspondences. I wouldn't want the Adders to think you aren't the self-made Grimalkin I know you are. - Ma

Conclusion

Upon speaking to Zeki

Player

Why did you hide those letters from your mom?

Zeki

Shhh! Don't say that so loud.

Grimalkins aren't supposed to keep talkin' to their parents after we're weaned.

Player

That's messed up!

Zeki

Maybe by your cultural standards...but not by ours. The separation is meant to prove we're independent.

Player

So you're dependant [sic] on your cartel then?

Zeki

Watch it...I'm not dependant on the Adders. I OWE the Adders. Everything they've given me, I'm payin' 'em back.

With interest.

Player

I couldn't do that. I'd miss my family too much.

Zeki

Yeah, well you're a Human. That kind of mushiness is to be expected.

Player

But you couldn't stay away from the fish cakes...

Zeki

My ma's fish cakes are pretty tasty...but it was never about that.

Between you and me, my mom's one impressive lady.

She's second in command of Mantis cartel. How could I not want to know her better?

I shoulda burned the letters like my ma said. But, I don't know, I liked the reminder she was proud of me.

Maybe I am weak. I don't know...

Here's some money to keep quiet. If this gets out, it would hurt my street cred.

Notes

• The box may reappear in the storeroom but can not be opened again.
