<string
id="prebackstory.spc_wanderer_sturgia_5"
text="{=E7z7aoQo}Look, friend, I'm here to drink, not talk. But if you really want to know, I'll give it to you in brief." />
<string
id="backstory_a.spc_wanderer_sturgia_5"
text="{=Zu4uBSxk}We Sturgians have a tradition. If two people have a dispute, and there's no witnesses, so it all comes down to one man's word against another's, then we let them settle it with swords. If one man doesn't like to fight, he can hire someone else to do the fighting. That's how it works with us. Probably other people do the same, because it's a good tradition." />
<string
id="backstory_b.spc_wanderer_sturgia_5"
text="{=r8ga8i93}I like to fight, so I made it known that I'd fight for anyone if the price is right. Shed a little blood, make a little coin, drink it away, make a little more, all in the cause of justice. Not a bad life, eh?" />
<string
id="backstory_c.spc_wanderer_sturgia_5"
text="{=ExBNUPTm}Well, I guess I showed myself a bit too eager. The councils stopped accepting me as champion. Told me I sold my sword too cheaply, they said. What can I say? I have to look for other work now. It's a damn shame. I like duels - you don't worry about arrows, or someone coming up from behind. No need to stay sober for hours on end waiting for a fight that never comes. Just a few minutes of trouble, a bit of blood, and then usually a good meal afterwards." />
<string

text="{=AlZlPv4b}Councils these days. Always making changes..." />
<string
id="response_2.spc_wanderer_sturgia_5"
text="{=Fgsd3jBn}You call that the cause of justice?" />
<string
id="backstory_d.spc_wanderer_sturgia_5"
text="{=2UEpvIIV} But look - I'd still be a fine addition to a fighting company. I know how to swing a sword and an axe, and know a thing or two about forging them and keeping them sharp as well." />
<string
id="generic_backstory.spc_wanderer_sturgia_5"
text="{=IVIIkCaY}I was a sword for hire. Specialized in duels - you know, when there's a trial, and you can't work it out any other way. But you can run that racket too long - eventually the councils start banning you from fighting - so now here I am." />
