A knight's imprisonment

[stupidhonor]

[1, right after mission]
[If you open the captive Ankaian unit cockpit, you find its pilot to look like a completely normal human woman. People who hoped for more weird aliens will be disappointed.

She however is armed with a sword - and points it at you! But the sword is sheathed, and given hilt first.]

I yield. By my name I swear to act like a captive should, make no attempts to backstab nor escape unless let go willfully.

I am now at your mercy.

Yes? What comes now?

Torture, is it?

[Sitting in a cell, Sielje is ready to be interrogated. She actually behaves without causing trouble as promised so if you have questions, ask them and see if she answers.]

Torture isn't how we do things here. But... I do have a question.

[It might be a shot in the dark but she can't afford to not take the chance. Nothing to lose and all.]

I take it you'll give me the truth?

[stupidhonor]

Lies are dishonorable, especially if you are sworn to speak the truth.

[empress_without_a_throne]

Good. And my thanks.

But the way you arrived on the battlefield was similar to another enemy we've fought. An enemy force known as the "Indalph".

Does that name mean anything to you?

[stupidhonor]

No...

Now is the first time I hear it.

[So unlike the Shadow-Mirrors, they hadn't made connections with these knights just yet.]

Well that's a relief... they cause enough problems for us as it is.

[stupidhonor]

I see.

Those Indalph - who are they?

[empress_without_a_throne]

Interdimensional invaders, ones who spread conflict everywhere they can. Like your own people they just showed up out of the blue, using some sort of portal system.

[stupidhonor]

We are not like them! Ankaian people live by principle of honor and strength, not... conflict!
