Word of Honor

Promise Maria Zavetina that you will not use this new knowledge for evil.

Greetings. I did not think that I would be able to say this. But today I am glad that you are here with us, a hero whose fate is somehow so deeply intertwined with the fate of our world.

Your efforts could change the world. It's too bad you're not on our side. We - all of us - have made so many mistakes. There is a vast misunderstanding between us, Sarn's true children, and you, the heroes scrabbling about in the dust for the remnants of the old world. It will take a great deal of effort to mend this gap...

But now I quite simply have no one else to turn to. What's happening here on the Wandering Island is frightening. I do not hide that I am afraid. I beg you, promise me, before I put my faith in you, promise me that even if our paths part once again, that you will never use the knowledge we have given you for evil.

Fine. I... I believe you, although you are no friend of ours. My heart tells me that you are a creature of honor and that I can take you at your word.
