If I wished to meet with the leader of the Resistance, how would I get in touch with them?

...Don't tell me you're a monk. Because frankly, that just sucks, man.

Yeah, I got that part. What I'm slightly confused about is how you expect me to give up the location of the Resistance Leader on nothing but your typed words that you want to talk. No name, no face, it sure instills a lot of trust in me.

I'm not.

I don't expect you to. They would most likely not choose their current location as a meeting point anyway.

Then what's your excuse?

And choose another place, of which you'd have foreknowledge to entrap? I wasn't born yesterday, pal. I've been through one war, and as far as I'm concerned, this could be counted as another. Now unless I get orders otherwise, or you provide some good faith evidence that you only want to talk, you're not getting anywhere near the boss. Got it?

That which I care for most is not here, and I will do no disrespect to the the same.

You are not the only one in this place to have known the horrors of war. Nor are you the only one to consider this one, bloodless as it currently is.

What evidence would you have from me? Although it may not mean much from a faceless stranger, you have my word that I do not intend your leader harm.

Sorry about that, man. No offense to your lover.

You call this bloodless? Just because the suffering is done in silence and under secrecy makes it no less grotesque. Kidnapping, torture, disappearances. You've got one f*cked up notion of a bloodless war.

Why don't you try releasing those you guys took, for one? Meet with an emissary first, for another?

I do not have the authority to do the first. Nor have I personally been involved in the kidnappings.

However, the second I can do, should it be requested.

Personally, huh? So I guess standing around, doing nothing and watching counts you out of the blame. Why don't you just tell me where they are and I'll gladly retrieve them myself.

It'll be requested. As for who you'll meet up with, I'll let the boss decide that.

I never said that I did not deserve at least part of the blame. But not all of us are cruel-hearted as the stories would claim.

I would expect no less.

I dunno. You'll have to work hard to convince me on that one. It takes a special kind of breed to just stand by and watch a child be tortured. Know what I mean?

...Guess it's your lucky day, pal. The boss feels like sending someone. You've got five minutes. After that, I'm outta there. Meet me at the Ceu de Mouraria, alone. I trust you know where that is?

I do, although there is the matter of recognizing each other.

Don't worry about it, bub. I'll find you. I doubt it's all that hard.

Very well then.
