Dialogue[]

Show: The Lady of Paranoia
In Crucible:

"It's gone... all of it, gone! Have you seen any of it? Any of my things? The others... they think I'm stealing, but I just want my things back."

Conspiracy "I'm afraid I have no idea what you're talking about."
Liar. Herdir, torture him! "Please, no!"
I don't care. Herdir, torture him. "No, please no...."
"You may continue to do your worst, Inquisitor, but unless you have some evidence of this preposterous conspiracy, you'll get nothing from me."
Conspiracy "I've told you, I don't know anything. You can't prove a thing!"
Very well. You shall be spared. "Thank you."

If caught while in conversation with Nelrene:

"What... what are you doing here? There's nothing going on. Leave me alone!"

If not caught in conversation with Nerlrene:

"Ah, you again. Have you seen any of Ma'zaddha's things? A shiny spoon, or a broken bottle? I can't find them."

Conspiracy "I've told you, I don't know anything. You can't prove a thing!"
I heard you talking to Nelrene. "What? I... I... It's for the good of Crucible! You must see that! Please, spare me! I'll do anything!"
Why are you trying to kill Lady Syl? "You don't know, do you? She's kept it a secret even from you! She and Thadon... they've been meeting in secret. They've been doing things together. Consorting. You understand me? It cannot be permitted! She must be stopped!"
Who else is involved? "I don't know, besides Nelrene. She's taking orders from someone, but won't tell me who. If I find out, will you promise to spare me?"
I'll make no such promise. "Okay, okay. I'll get the names, and then you'll see. It will be worth it, I promise you! Meet me in my house tomorrow at midnight. I'll have information for you. Just please spare me."
Very well. Bring me names. "Thank you, thank you! You are too kind. I shall bring you names, I promise. Meet me in my house tomorrow at midnight. I'll have the information for you."
Conspiracy "I've agreed to help you already. Torturing me further will do you no good!"

"Keep an eye out for my things, won't you?"

Conversations[]

The Lady of Paranoia, failed

Nelrene: "Have you made any progress? Will Anya assist us?" Ma'zaddha: "Ssh! We are not alone! It's not safe to speak. Go, before someone sees us."

The Lady of Paranoia, succeeded

Nelrene: "Have you made any progress? Will Anya assist us?" Ma'zaddha: "No, that blasted Inquisitor got to her. We'll need to find someone else." Nelrene: "See that you do so immediately. This is the one task which you were assigned. If you cannot complete it, you will be removed. Are we clear?" Ma'zaddha: "I will, I will! I want to see Syl dead just as much as you do. She cannot be allowed to survive, after what she's done. It's despicable." Nelrene: "Good. I shall expect a progress report soon. And keep your head down; the Inquisitor must not become involved."

Trivia[]

  • If Ma'zaddha dies, his tombstone in New Sheoth Graveyard will read, "Mazaddha found that which he did not seek -- the sharp end of a blade."
