Okay, it's nice to have a definite job now,
but...
#
I have no idea where I'm supposed to be going.
#
<sprite "ta09a000.agf" 4 4 11>
<name "Rakia" "!EA0011">
"Do you need help?"
#
<name "Darx">
"Huh? Yeah.
 You're sharp."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0012">
"I've been doing this for a long time.
 This way."
#
...?

She takes me to a strange place.
#
<name "Darx">
"Where are we?"
#
It's a room full of doors, although it's a 
little big to be called just a room.
#
More like a world of doors.
#
<sprite "ta09a004.agf" 4 4 11>
<name "Rakia" "!EA0013">
"This is called the Room of Travels.
 These are Doors of Travel.
 They're for just what their names say."
#
<name "Darx">
"If I had to guess then..."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0014">
"Yes. They're for traveling to and from the
 various dungeons in Forzelotte's Shrine, what
 you humans call The Forest of the Overlord."
#
<name "Darx">
"Wow! That's really useful."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0015">
"No, it's actually not."
#
<name "Darx">
"Huh?"
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0016">
"The fundamental thing is that most of the
 doors go in one direction only."
#
<name "Darx">
"You can go through, but no coming back?"
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0017">
"Correct. If anybody could come here from the
 other side, intruders would very easily reach
 this place."
#
<name "Darx">
"Yeah, good point."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0018">
"That's why they only allow travel one way."
#
<name "Darx">
"Meaning that you can go through, but you've 
 got to find your own way back, huh?"
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0019">
"Correct, but there are also doors specifically
 for returning set up in various places."
#
<name "Darx">
"Just for coming back?"
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0020">
"Yes. You can use those doors only if you have
 the right item and know the appropriate 
 cantrip."
#
<name "Darx">
"Ooh."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0021">
"The doors for coming back are all over, 
 but they all come back to a single place."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0022">
"That room over there."
#
She points at a particularly large door.
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0023">
"That's not a Door of Travels. It's just a
 regular door.
 There's a very large room on the other side."
#
<name "Darx">
"A holding area?"
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0024">
"Yes. It is guarded by the elite of the elite."
#
<name "Darx">
"...Against anybody who might somehow find 
 their way in?"
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0025">
"There are a number of devices in that room to
 protect against unwanted guests, so mind 
 yourself as you come through."
#
<name "Darx">
"I'm a human among demons here..."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0026">
"You'll be fine so long as you do behave
 yourself."
#
<name "Darx">
"Hahaha."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0027">
"The signs and the map will help you understand
 which door leads to where."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0028">
"Be careful the first time you go anywhere."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0029">
"In most cases, the door back will be near 
 where you arrive, but depending on the place,
 it may be far away."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0030">
"Completing your job is important, but make
 sure you know the way out until you've gotten
 used to what you're doing."
#
<name "Darx">
"Yeah, got it.
 Thanks."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0031">
"Not at all.
 Ah, here. Please take this."
#
<removesprite -1 11>
She holds out a little charm bag.
#
<name "Darx">
"For good luck?"
#
<sprite "ta09a000.agf" 4 4 11>
<name "Rakia" "!EA0032">
"No, this is for communication."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0033">
"You can contact me using it no matter where
 you are."
#
<name "Darx">
"Wow. This is great too!"
#
<removesprite -1 11>
The demons have this kind of stuff?
#
I'm seriously impressed.
#
<name "Darx">
"I'll give you a call if I'm in danger."
#
<sprite "ta09a004.agf" 4 4 11>
<name "Rakia" "!EA0034">
"No, that's not what it's for."
#
<name "Darx">
"Huh?"
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0035">
"Use it when you're in a dungeon and you need
 something."
#
<name "Darx">
"Like I said, if I'm in danger, I'll..."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0036">
"Unfortunately, Gunguskar will not engage in
 any direct martial actions."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0037">
"That's our company rule. I will not break it."
#
<name "Darx">
"Fine."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0038">
"Of course, it's a different matter if one of
 us is attacked, but if given the option, 
 we will retreat, not fight."
#
<name "Darx">
"So what do you mean by requests then?"
#
What else is there that someone would need in a
dungeon if not being rescued?
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0039">
"Mostly delivery of supplies, but there is also 
the matter of collection."
#
<name "Darx">
"Aah, I get it!"
#
<removesprite -1 11>
Being able to call up for what you need will
make dungeons much easier to handle.
#
<sprite "ta09a005.agf" 4 4 11>
<name "Rakia" "!EA0040">
"Unfortunately, our services are very costly.
 I'm sorry, but right now, there is simply no
 way you can afford it."
#
<name "Darx">
"...Huh?"
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0041">
"It does require going somewhere very 
 dangerous."
#
<name "Darx">
"Mm. You've got a point."
#
If you asked an adventurer to deliver something
into a dungeon for someone, they wouldn't do it
for loose change either.
#
<name "Darx">
"So, what's the collection you were talking
 about?"
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0042">
"The Overlord made a request that we take care
 of a collection of a certain thing for you in
 particular."
#
<name "Darx">
"And what's this certain thing?"
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0043">
"Women."
#
<name "Darx">
"..."
#
<removesprite -1 11>
She gave me Shia to get rid of the magic in my
body, but is she not going to be enough?
#
I don't remember her ever saying so.
#
Does this mean I need to regularly have sex
from now on or something's going to happen to
me?
#
Well, I would anyway, so whatever.
#
<sprite "ta09a004.agf" 4 4 11>
<name "Rakia" "!EA0044">
"If you defeat an intruder you fancy, please
 contact me. I will have my employees escort
 them into the prison."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0045">
"They will be taken care of and have their 
 injuries treated."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0046">
"When you feel like it, you can enjoy yourself
 with them."
#
<name "Darx">
"That'd be great."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0047">
"However, this will be for only those you 
 defeat yourself. Please remember that and so
 that other demons do not take your prizes from
 you."
#
<name "Darx">
"Rough."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0048">
"Haha. The Overlord does not want you to become
 spoiled."
#
<name "Darx">
"Hmph. As long as we win, I'm fine with not
 getting any bonus prizes."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0049">
"I see. That's fine."
#
<name "Darx">
"All's good then."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0050">
"Oh, I have to tell you something ahead of 
 time as well."
#
<name "Darx">
"Hm?"
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0051">
"There is a rental fee for the use of the rooms
 you will need for such things. Thank you in
 advance for your patronage."
#
<name "Darx">
"..."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0052">
"She does not wish for you to become spoiled."
#
<name "Darx">
"Urgh."
#
<name "Rakia" "!EA0053">
"Please work hard.
 Gunguskar looks forward to doing business
 with you."
