	The Patrons will herald the end of humanity if we let them.
	I'm duty-bound to fight.
	If I die, so be it.
	The stakes are high, and I will rise to the occasion.

		Holliday: Works for me!
Lady Geist	No	Lady Geist: Then why are you fighting on their behalf?
		Lady Geist: You're a rather dour bastard, aren't you? Lady Geist: Boring people may say that I'm aloof, but at least I know how to have a good time. But you... you just look... perpetually miserable. Lady Geist: Whatever you say.
		Lady Geist: Don't worry about me, Warden. I know what's at stake.
