Power Games

When we first met at the Kalis Parliament, I could see in your eyes that you were not one to deceive. Isobelle really was wounded, wasn't she? All of the other families probably believe what you've told them to be the truth as well. But, you must remember that this is Calpheon though. This is a place where constant power struggles occur from behind the scenes. You will quickly fall prey to the endless backstabbing and scheming if you show any sign of weakness. ...It is no secret that there are many who do not like the idea of someone like me sitting in the Parliament. Someone who wasn't born a noble, yet has managed to amass such power within the family. ...Much time has passed since Guy Seric's reign ended. The Republic will not last forever. With everyone vying for top positions, the weak will never stand a chance. They will be the first to go. ...So, what do you think, hero of the Xian Merchant Guild? Do you really suspect we House Encarotia to be responsible for funding the Grand Chamberlain of Heidel?

It seems as if you've spent time exploring many places. Go to the Central Church as your last place of visit.

I do not wish to deny your words or that of Enrique. However, it seems all suspicions have been pointed towards the Xian Merchant Guild. [Character name], there is a possibility you may not be forgiven for your recent undertakings. This is in regards to having helped House Encarotia and spending time with Lady Isobelle. I wish to make a proposal. Henceforth from this moment on, I want you to become a member of the Leight Merchant Guild and forgo your ties to the Xian Merchant Guild.
