“In a way,” the man said. “Right now the Talisman is not in this world. But it will be. And in order to combat the Hounds which will surely come with it, we must act quickly to build an army that can stand against them. That way we will send a clear and precise signal to the enemy that we're willing to fight.”
“Alright, how do we know these organizations will listen to me?” V asked.
“The Order is among one of the few organizations which has the Right of Conscription on any world,” the man replied. “Even if the heads of the organizations refuse to aid you, others will recognize our banner and realize the true extent of the danger they face. You may use such allies in place of the proper treaties if it comes to that.”
“So where we goin’ then?” Grim asked.
The man handed V a scroll with a symbol which looked like a star with four points on it. It almost looked like what would be on a compass, but V recognized it as the Star of Saradomin. “The City of Falador is home to the White and Temple Knights,” the man said. “It’s directly south of our position, so you may wish to start there.”
The man handed V another scroll with a bat symbol on it. “This contract is for House Drakan,” he said. “This may prove to be the hardest ally to rally to the banner, so I advise extreme caution when dealing with them.”
The man presented V with yet another scroll, this one depicting a purple equidistant cross encased in a circle. “This is for the Zarosian Empire,” the man said.
“But they’re gone,” V replied.
“That may be true, but their servants yet live,” the man said. “They may be few in number, but rest assured that they of all people will flock to the banner.”
The man gave V one last scroll. The symbol on it depicted both a diamond shape with an empty square in the middle of it, and a moon surrounded by three stars. “This contract is twofold,” the man said. “One is for the elves who worship Seren, and the other is for a branch of mages known as the Circle of Hecate.”
