33 = "Marh-Tel approaches you. _We will march ahead, clearing away resistance and opening barriers. The tunnel to the Empire lands is to the west. Pass through it. From there, the ziggurat will be south, then west._";
34 = "_We will hide near the ziggurat as long as we can, and then attack. You must catch up with us by then if you are to profit from our distraction. For sure, we won't be able to hide for more than a day._";

45 = "He stands and moves towards you, clearly nervous and ready to draw his blade. He gives you the briefest of half bows, and says, _I hear you have orders from the Council._";
46 = "You show him the orders. He reads them, then reads them again carefully. Then he casts a brief spell on them, looks surprised, and reads them again. Then, he looks up at you, his face twisted in horror and shame.";
47 = "_You really are from the Council! And we ... we thought ... we tried to..._ He falls back in his chair, overwhelmed. _I'm sorry. I am so sorry. We were sure you humans were trying to trick us again._";
48 = "He takes a minute to regain his dignity, and then he stands again. _Fort Haledon is now at your command, as per these orders. We will attack Ornotha Ziggurat, giving our lives if need be to help you enter and obtain the Crystal Soul._";
49 = "_When you are ready, go to the entrance of the fort to give the order. The moment you are ready, we will be too._ ";
