Cutscene 6[]
Viktoria: "Garrett? It's Viktoria. I trust you made it back alive? You've done
well, Garrett. Come with me, and bring the sword. There is someone you have
to meet. It's time for the payment you've been promised."
Garrett: "Yes."
Constantine: "A refreshment, Mister Garrett? I'm in the possession of a superior
brandy, that has the most 'restorative' effect."
Garrett: "I prefer my payment in cash, not liquor, Mister...ahh..."
Constantine: "My apologies. I've been watching you, Mister Garrett.
So closely, in fact, that I'm afraid I'd forgotten we haven't
actually met yet. I am...Constantine."
Garrett: "All this time I thought you were going to pay me."
Garrett: "You've brought me here to kill me?"
Constantine: "But you have it all wrong, Mister Garrett. Would it surprise you
to know that it was I who hired you to steal my own sword?"
Constantine: "Yes. You see, Viktoria and I are..."
Viktoria: "Old associates."
Constantine: "Yes. You were being tested. Do you understand? And I must say,
you more than live up to your reputation. You are quite an extraordinary thief."
Garrett: "Testing me? What is it you want from me, Constantine?"
Constantine: "I am a collector, Mister Garrett. But there are some 'items', that are
not available for purchase. They must be acquired using other means.
In this case the item in question would be best acquired by thieving.
Not simple thieving...no. I need an artist. Like yourself."
Garrett: "What exactly IS this...item?"
Constantine: "It is the gemstone called The Eye, for it's unusual..."
Viktoria: "Appearance."
Constantine: "Yes. Kept hidden in the sealed cathedral deep inside the halls of
the scum Hammerites. Oh, but forgive me, you are, possibly,'friendly' with
the Order of the Hammer?"
Garrett: "No. Fanatics make unreliable friends."
Constantine: "Excellent. I am prepared to offer you quite a sum. A hundred
thousand, upon receipt of The Eye."
Garrett: "I don't see how I can refuse such an offer."
Constantine: "Marvelous. Viktoria can fill you in on all the particulars. And
Mister Garrett...the sword. Keep it. You have earned it. But also...
I believe you'll find it useful in your quest."
