Bring in Nemesis Defector
The Horror of War
Part: One
Let's cut to the chase, Character. This is big. An officer of the Nemesis Army has contacted us. He says he wants to defect. He also said that he wanted to talk to you specifically. Knowing Nemesis, this could be a trap, but it's too good an opportunity to pass up. I want you to bring the defector in.
The defector's name is Captain Sherman. He wants out, and that's very interesting. The Nemesis Army rarely has any defectors, so it's almost too unlikely to be a trap. In either case, I doubt they'll be willing to let him go easily. Get Sherman to safety, then we may be able to find out more.
Mission Objective(s)
There have been few defections from the Nemesis Army. Or at least, very few successful ones.
- Bring in Nemesis Defector
- Lead Capt. Sherman out
Sherman went up in fire. Ironic.
Werfer Jaeger: I suppose it'll be the chopping gear for Captain Sherman, eh?
Dragoon: There's no room for traitors in the armies of Lord Nemesis.
Werfer Jaeger:
- The crime is treason against the Nemesis Army, and slander against the good name of Lord Nemesis himself!
Captain Sherman:
- Good name?
- You have no idea how ridiculous you sound.
Werfer Jaeger:
- Vile cur!
- You'd dare besmirch the name of a loyal automaton of the Nemesis Army?
Captain Sherman:
- If you knew even half of what I've learned...
Fake Nemesis:
- And that is why you must be silenced.
- The Sentence is death! To be carried out immediately!

Conference Attendee: Go away. I'm attending this very...bzzt...important conference.
- Serpent Drummer
Serpent Drummer: Character, good to see you. Let's talk a moment.
With his dying breath, Captain Sherman tried to tell you the explosive information that had caused his defection.
'Nemesis... It was all him. The war, the lies... The truth is at the Shadow Shard base. Take the coordinates. Learn the truth. The whole war, started by Nemesis! The Rikti were his dupes... It was... Nemesis!
I was Nemesis...
all...
along...'As the life left him, he handed you a bloodied piece of parchment with a set of dimensional coordinates and one word: 'Proof!'
The Lady Grey spoke well of you, and I can see why. The negotiations will continue, thanks to your efforts in coordinating the defense, but the Nemesis Army was not completely unsuccessful. We must now reverse their gains and recover our losses.
