The Rescue Drill/Plot Details
Script
The Rescue Drill - Gatehouse, San d'Oria San d'Orian Gate Guard: There's not much work in right now. I suppose you could go participate in the Temple Knight's rescue drills out in the La Theine Plateau. ("Tell me more.")
San d'Orian Gate Guard: Enter the forest beyond the Westgate and head southwest. You'll come out onto the La Theine Plateau before long.
San d'Orian Gate Guard: Once you're out on the plateau, keep going until you see the knights. The training grounds aren't far from there.
San d'Orian Gate Guard: That is all. You'll take the mission then?
("I accept.")
San d'Orian Gate Guard: It's all just a drill, so this should be easy compared to your usual fare. Just follow orders and you'll be fine.
The Rescue Drill - La Theine Plateau (You wander around La Theine Plateau speaking to the various Temple Knights.) Galaihaurat: Are you in the rescue drill?
Galaihaurat: Head to the other side of that valley over there. One of my compatriots will assist you.
Equesobillot: Head down here if you wish to take part in the rescue drill.
Deaufrain: They're conducting drills up ahead... At least, I think they are.
Vicorpasse: Greetings, I'm Vicorpasse, squad captain in the Temple Knights.
Vicorpasse: We are supposed to be conducting rescue drills, but one of our "injured" soldiers has gone missing. Your assistance is finding him would be appreciated.
Vicorpasse: The missing soldier is a new recruit by the name of Ruillont. I just hope nothing's happened to him...
Augevinne: One of the "injured" soldiers has gone missing! Well, don't just stand there! Help us search!
Yaucevouchat: Well? Find anything?
Tayula: No, nothing, sir!
Laurisse: Well? Any sign of him?
Narvecaint: Hey!
Narvecaint: Hey! Come take a look at this! Quickly!
Narvecaint: Look, a cave! Maybe he went in there!
The Rescue Drill - Ordelle's Caves (You enter Ordelle's Caves to find Ruillont hiding behind a cave formation.) Ruillont: An adventurer, are you? I am Ruillont of the Temple Knights. I came here without my sword, and now fiends have surrounded me.
Ruillont: As the "wounded knight" for our training, I was to lie near the entrance. But a swarm of fiends happened upon me, and I was forced to flee into this cave.
Ruillont: Since I had left my sword with a companion, I had to find a place to hide...and now I'm stuck here.
Ruillont: What? You've come to rescue me?
Ruillont: I must refuse!
Ruillont: Imagine, a knight rescued by some passerby! Why, my family would be mocked for generations to come!
Ruillont: Confound it! If I only had my sword, I'd cut through these fiends single-handedly...
The Rescue Drill - La Theine Plateau (You head back outside the cave to find which Temple Knight has Ruillont's sword.) Temple Knight: Ruillont's sword? Yes, I was keeping it for him during training.
Temple Knight: What, Ruillont's stuck in a cave? How typical of him to refuse your help...
Temple Knight: Yes, I believe you; I'm sure it's him. Take this to him in there, would you? We'll keep it between you and me.
The Rescue Drill - Ordelle's Caves (Upon trading Ruillont's sword to him.) Ruillont: My sword! You've brought me my sword!
Ruillont: This is just what I needed. I thank you, adventurer.
Ruillont: I'll be fine from here on out. Please let my captain know...
Ruillont: I'm going to stay here and observe the caves for a while. Watch out for those fiends, eh!
The Rescue Drill - La Theine Plateau Vicorpasse: What? Ruillont's in that cave? And he doesn't want us to send help, eh? That's my boy! He's an elite in the making, that one! Vicorpasse: Well, the rescue training was a wash, but you helped us find our lost soldier. I think you've earned this Rescue Training Certificate.
Vicorpasse: No, really. These drills are naught compared to venturing into one of those caves. Hand that certificate to the knight at the gatehouse, and you'll be done.
The Rescue Drill - Gatehouse, San d'Oria San d'Orian Gate Guard: You've returned! I hear the drill turned into something far more perilous. But real battle is the best drill for recruits, in my opinion. San d'Orian Gate Guard: Regardless, you've done well. I'll turn to you when there's work to be done, now.
