Stephan the Watchman

I don't know what you are trying to get out of me, but I have nothing to tell you. If you want something, pay up. I'm not giving anything away for free.

You don't have any money? Then bring me items! The Battery is a valuable asset at the right market. Bring me 40 and we'll talk.

If you were to dismantle the Patrol Robot S machines, you could take the Battery right out of their circuit boards.

Have it your way. Just keep away from me.

You lived up to your end of the bargain. You want to know about the Black Wing officers? I'll tell you...

To mind your own business! You think you should even be let near one of the commanders? They would tear you apart with their laser beam eyes! That's only a euphemism, but I believe a few of them actually do have laser beam eyes.

Take my advice. Scrape together the small remaining fraction of wealth you have and devote yourself to making money. You'll find nothing with the Black Wings.

You wouldn't even find an officer or commander near Edelstein anyway. Anyone of any importance is off on their own missions, working to collect resources and artifacts.

In fact, the only person you MIGHT have a chance to run into is the founder of the Black Wings! I've heard he or she was working to extract a great deal of energy from Edelstein, but you'd have more luck finding a fairy under the rocks.

If you really want to continue your foolish search, speak to someone higher up, like Secretary Le Tierre. But do not let your guard down for a second. She is no more friendly than a cornered badger.

Our business will continue when I am holding a stack of Battery items.
