(Erek, Nicolette)
So here we are,
two strangers thrown together,
by the hands of fate.
So here we are
two strangers torn by hatred,
brought, by this storm, face to face.
And if the soldiers who left us here to die were to have their way,
there would be no escape from this accursed place.
But what of you Young Erek?
You say you've slain a king,
yet Magnor his servant claims even now
his armies assemble to begin their defense of our Ruthengard.
You don't believe me, I'll prove it to you,
I've slain King Ivor.
Our Ruthengard lies in ruins, you'll see.
Rothgard was a prelude to our great cities demise.
I pray their fortress is reduced to rubble.
Their sins lay bare.
They will suffer at the swords of this foe as punishment for their inaction!
You have so much hate in your heart
There was nothing you could have gone to save your family.
It is not your fault that their spirits have ascended.
Nor can Ivor be blamed for the incursion.
After all you've done have you found peace?
Hatred is a prison, forgiveness can set you free.
We must protect what friends and family we have left.
Yes, we will protect what is ours.
I will fight for Ruthengard.
I cannot bare to lose the family I have left/
