>Adler: She can only have her knives back if she behaves. Tell her to explain herself. How did she survive and what is she trying to do?
>Burnside: You missed most of the battle, to your shame and disappointment, even with how it ended. You fell down a hole into the catacombs and you've been trapped down there this whole time. You were able to survive by eating bugs and mushrooms. When you finally found your way out, you saw someone in the tower and came to investigate. If it was anyone else you would have made them into barbecue, but seeing as it's Adler, well, this is your idea of flirting.
>Adler: Does she still work for the Duchess?
>Burnside: No, she probably thinks you're dead. Which is a good thing considering she'd probably flay you alive for switching sides and working for Adler. You're still waiting for your reward for that, you know.
>Adler: She smells like death and cheap barbecue. She needs a bath before you can even think about that.
