Heroes of Might and Magic III」の拡張パック「Shadow of Death」のキャンペーン「Unholy Alliance」の、Gelu とGem が主人公のシナリオ「Agents of Vengeance」をプレイしました。
Agents of Vengeance
You must capture Castle Crypthome to win the scenariio. However, if Gem or Gelu is defeated in combat, the scenariio is lost. The heroes are limited to level 33 but will carry their experience, skills and spells on to their next scenario.
Several days ago the AvLee Council of Elders commanded Gem and myself to avenge the deaths of Lords Falorel, Lord Fayette, the Dragon Lords and the other victims of the Necromancer's raids. At the border we encountered this... this horrific scene. The Deyjan lords must be destroyed before all of AvLee is harvested for their undead armies.
そしてゲーム開始後、以下の会話が行われます。
Gelu: After learning that Sandro was behind the plot to kill Lord Falorel, I did some more investigating and discovered the Dragon Lords I destroyed were not bandits. They were real AvLee Border Lords. I felt I had to explain personally to the AvLee Council of Elders and accept their judgment for my mistake. The Council was skeptical, but after consulting with their Oracle, they said I could best make amends by participationg in a punitive campaign against Deyja. I feel honor bound to accept their judgment, and I have taken a leave of absence from the Forest Guard.
Gem: The doll got to me. It looked just like the one my sister had right before she died. I remenber thinking she was the luckiest girl in the world to have a doll like that. Then the horde of skeletons killed everyone in my village. I was the only survivor. I'm GLAD the Council of Elders choose me as one of the pair to punish Deyja.
Lord Falorel やLord Fayette、それにDragon Lord たちに対するDeyja からの明確な敵対行為に対して、AvLee の評議会は、Gem とGelu に報復するよう指示を与えました。Sandro の暗躍があったとは言え、ふたりともその片棒を担がされてしまったわけです。その償いをするためにも、そして確かに存在するDeyja の脅威を防ぐためにも、Gelu とGem は戦場へと赴くのでありました。
