Convince Martin to join the Shornhelm Guard.

Dialogue[]

The Wayward Son[]

When first speaking to him:

"If you've come to poke fun at the prisoner, you'd better think twice. I'll be out of these stocks soon, and then you'll have to watch your back. They may not have enough evidence to hold me, but that doesn't mean I'm not a dangerous criminal."

What crime are you accused of? "They say I broke into Jerine's Ironworks and robbed the place during the night, but they haven't got any proof. Besides, my friend is going to come forward and vouch for me. I was at his house drinking mead all night."
Whatever the case, joining the Shornhelm Guard might be a good idea. They could use you. "And get myself killed? I can't do that. My father went back to the dirt fifteen years ago and my family needs me around. My mother would fall to pieces and my sister doesn't make enough coin to support herself, let alone the both of them."

After speaking with Olivier Serene, Aubrey Dathieu and Serine Dathieu:

"They are going to release me, aren't they? Has Olivier really not come forward? He will. I know he will."

I really think you should enlist, Martin. "Why? Olivier's not going to vouch for me, is he? That backstabbing arse-hole! I can't enlist though. I just can't. I'm just not cut out to be a soldier, and my mother and my sister need me here."
Your father was a hero. You should follow in his footsteps. [?]
Your sister says if you enlist, the steady income would help the family most. "Really? She said that? I guess it's true. My plans for making gold haven't really panned out, have they? My poor mother, she's been wearing the same shawl for eight years …. All right. If this is the best way I can help my family, I'll enlist."
Olivier's betrayed you. Enlisting is your only choice. [?]
