Knight ranks

Listen, {username}… Don’t you think this has all gone too far?
I do! What are those bastards up to? They fly around here like they own the place and do whatever they want. I can’t stand it any longer!
Besides that, they ended up setting up base in the Crooked Outpost... which would have been a great place for Catherina’s plans for you and your business. That gang is out of place there. Perhaps it’s time to ask our guests to leave.
First, we need to gather the troops. We have a few more Clockwork Knights here, but those goblins managed to break them... Luckily, they are easy to fix using the artifact I give you.
But be careful. This is meticulous work, not some Empire junk you can fix with a hammer and file. If you break anything – I will personally make you pay up. Outright, in crystals.

Where is number five? I definitely remember the north was guarded by five knights, but only four returned. Was one beyond fixing? Or did you manage to fully break it?
Ah, here’s what happened, the Spark’s depleted... Technology isn’t as reliable as we thought. Too bad, we lost a good soldier. Now where do we find a new Spark for it without executing some local nobles again...
