Not my best work, but I'm really tired Clean up as you will! Oh, I left a 'XXX' incase you want to be blunt with Gregor's village.
Meldorac speaks in a strange language, ripping at his throat. A small medallion comes free, and he kisses it then brandishes it in the mage's face "The true god, with true power, power none of us will ever know!" Meldorac then giggles and cries, but pulls himself together. "He can do what he wants without care, it makes him strong! The rest of us, the rest of us must do what we can, what we have to, to get the only thing that matters to be free - money! A false freedom, but all we will ever get. True freedom requires too much power, is too terrible. They are coming for me!"
Meldorac seems to push at Gregor, trying to stop the mage from dragging him away. "You have no idea what I have had to do! What you need to do! Your magic has got you nowhere, only money will let you be truely free! Money and the brutality to use it! The Merchants guild know that well, that is why they want me to steal the Finger of Kai for them." Meldorac giggles again. "You should steal it, must steal it, be free! Use it instead! You Sommlending scramble like we all do. The things I have had to watch you people, you 'good' people, do! Help you do. Oh dear god, I remember a year ago, a stupid village called XXX. The things they did to that poor girl! The things I let them do for my pay that day!"
Meldorac scrambles his dagger free, as if to stab himself in disgust, or Gregor. "Trenton, he was a good man, and I used him. Look at what he had to do, who he had to group with, for the lack of money! A good man, dead for no reason, because he was powerless! Take his dagger, don't forget him! He had a brother he lost, couldn't protect. You have lost your charge! Bonnie torn apart by plague-riddled wretches. Only Owain and Aram will succeed, unless you get the Finger first! Do not trust Owain. Do not! He will be your rival! Steal the Finger yourself and be free, free your country with wealth and domination and fear! It is the only way! I cannot go back, I cannot. I cannot tell my parents the cost is too much for buy my freedom. Let me go!"
Meldorac collapses in hysterical tears again.
