- "{name}, these lands are like a forest. Everyone is hungry, and all keep constant watch on their predators and their prey. What you need is ears – by which I mean spies. We don't have any yet, but others do. They're planting them among us. I must stay in the shadows, so I can catch them. Don't tell anybody I'm your head of espionage. Simply tell them I'm a minister. Keep it simple."

- "A crowded caravan has arrived, the kind that often carries illegal goods. The guards searched the caravan and found a stash, but it didn't have potions or artifacts. It contained spying equipment. It's unclear who the spy is, but he's clearly experienced. He had fine tools."

And since we're but a quail among hawks, it's essential to be very careful. This is why I'm asking you to keep my doings secret. Introduce me as a minister. Simply a minister."

A guard discovered a stash for smuggled goods – and a spy's gear was inside. It included very curious mathematical ciphers from Ustalav. I must admit, they are very elegant."

- "We failed to identify the owner of the package. But judging from its contents, this specialist is dangerous. Our people are helpless against him. They can't even catch their finger before it finds its way up their noses! Trying to track down a spy is out of the question. But you can't torture all the caravan's members – the merchants wouldn't approve of it. So we must tread lightly. We should threaten to confiscate their goods and kick them out. Trust me, they'll give us their information in no time."

Back in Kyonin, intrigues are very carefully devised. They're intended to last dozens of years. The plots were elegant and lies exquisite."

- "Things are done differently here. For starters, spymasters publicly identify themselves as agents of espionage, all-seeing visionaries... They might as well paint a target on their foreheads. It's not a mistake I would like to make. For your subjects, I shall simply be a minister. You've come to power only recently, and the city is already full of murderers and spies. A guard recently found a stash while inspecting a trade caravan. It didn't contain any smuggled goods except some spying equipment and a few deadly toys. We could identify neither where the package came from, nor to whom it was going. But if you don't want such tools put to use, you must figure out who the spy is."

- "I could order the merchants to look for a stranger among their servants. But I don't trust money-bags traders. I'd rather charge my people with watching the merchants. Then again, why look for clues when the best proof is evidence by confession? If you bring me the merchants for a couple of hours, the problem will be solved! The rack will make the spy sing like a bird."

- "I think of it as everyone at once. All countries are tied together by a chain of intrigue. Some would send their agents because they're scared. Others would send them because someone else did. The third one sends spies to watch the other two. Everything is interconnected." Jubilost notices your facial expression and sighs. "We don't know who sent him yet."
