2	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Aye, officer." A woman in a rain coat stands on the quay, considering an overturned boat. A sword in a scabbard hangs from her hip.		131
3	None			180 416 466 344 323 473 28 27 26 113 29 4
4	You	"Be seeing you." [Leave.]
5	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Aye, the sea's gonna calm down soon. I can feel it. The wind is turning southeast." She nods. "What's on your mind, officer?"		3

8	Lilienne, the Net Picker		(Variable["village.netpicker_greeting_done"]) == false	2
9	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Sure is. *The Sun* I call her. Coated with a fresh layer of tar just yesterday. It'll take some time for it to dry, assuming the sunny days continue."		132
10	None			3
11	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Anything I can help you with?"		44
12	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"And go where? The fish are plentiful here and we get enough orders to get by. It's not great, but it's something."		111 110 112 115
13	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Unfortunately, the factory sold this one with a three-year warranty instead of a story." She smiles at her own joke. "It's to intimidate folks, mostly."		18 52 54
14	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"It's a regular mass-produced sword, like a shovel or an axe. Nothing fancy, just for intimidation."		53
15	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Sometimes I also walk the beach to see what the sea has given up. The sea is full of surprises."		738
16	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Wood. Pieces of glass. Every once in a while we see dead bodies -- human, animal, fish, other odd sea creatures. A mine washed ashore, once..."		97
17	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Don't have any," she replies with a shrug. "Those get cleaned out so fast even the local bums can only stand by and watch with watery mouths. Always by strangers too. Union folk don't stand this kind of stuff around here."		104
18	You	"Hold on... do you know how to use it?"		19
19	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Not really." She glances at the blade. "I know some basic moves and I know it sure as hell beats a knife, when you're in a tough spot."		492
20	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"From time to time people need a lesson in respect. That's just the way it is. Back in the day I caught the eyes of many men and believe me," she adds, tittering, "men need a lesson in manners from time to time."		56
21	You	"Why don't more women arm themselves if it's so effective?"		22
22	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"What makes you think we haven't?" She smiles. "Heh. The truth is that almost everyone in this life is scared and tired and stupid and too *dull* for that."		65
23	You	"Behold!" (Point to *The Expression* on your face.)		24
24	Lilienne, the Net Picker	Her eyes meet yours and suddenly she starts laughing. It's hoarse. As if she hasn't laughed in a while.		507
25	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Sure." Her face straightens. "It looks as if you could face-down any horror in the world with that same unchanging grin. It's like a shield."		510
26	You	"Nice sword." (Point at the sabre on her hip.) "Does it come with a story?"	CheckItem("sabre") == false	13
27	You	"What do you do around here?"	Variable["village.netpicker_village_one_question_asked"] == false	90
28	You	"That's my motor carriage in the sea by the way." (Point to the sunken vehicle.)	Variable["village.netpicker_reached_motor_hub"] == true and Variable["coast.sunken_dialogue_done"] == true	108
29	You	She needs to go on a date with *another* drunk. Badly.	Variable["village.netpicker_dating_counter"] >= 2	30

33	You	"Can I borrow that sword?"	Variable["village.netpicker_can_i_have_sword"] == false	34
34	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"No, I'm afraid not." Her eyes are smiling as her hand moves to the hilt. "Attempting to confiscate the blade I use to keep these animals in check? You would put me in an early grave."		89
35	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Gone."		88
36	You	"I've questions. The first is -- what's your name?" (Move on.)		290
37	You	"As always, I am... the Lawbringer."	Variable["reputation.the_law"] >=3	40
38	You	"That depends. Where are we exactly?"		46
39	Kim Kitsuragi	"You've graduated to *Lawbringer* now?"		284

43	None			44
44	None			37 38 36 48
45	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"The name is Lilienne. People call me Net Picker." She gestures toward the fishnets. "I think I have time for questions. What are the other ones?"		484
46	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"A fishing village. On the seashore." She looks around. "This place doesn't really have a name. It's sometimes called... *Illisible*."		288
47	None			44
48	You	"I'm good." [Leave.]
49	Lilienne, the Net Picker	She whistles quietly, picking at the fishnet at her feet. The wind ruffles her hair.		3
50	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Are you now?" She smirks. "There are a lot of lawbringers around Martinaise, but not a lot of law."		285
51	You	"This place looks bad. Why don't you leave?"		12
52	You	"It *is* imposing." (Nod.)		14
53	You	"Why do you need intimidation tactics?"		20
54	You	"Isn't that what guns are for?"		55
55	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Guns are expensive... and fragile. I think." She shrugs. "Besides, I got kids. Can't have guns around them and sometimes a sharp blade is enough to keep folks at bay."		493
56	None			57 33 21 58
57	You	"Figures. Typical patriarchal nonsense, mascu-venomosity."	IsTHCPresent("radical_feminist_agenda")	60
58	You	"So where are all the men now?" (Proceed.)		59
59	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Some went to patch their wounds, their lesson learned, others were more thick-headed..." She looks down. "And one of them I ended up marrying."		68 61
60	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Ugh... sure. Venomosity." She nods. "But boys will be boys and god knows we don't have many around. So far the sword has been enough to keep them in line."		494
61	You	"Where's your husband now?"		35
62	You	"Gone where?"		63
63	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"To the waves." Her eyes stop in yours. "The sea took him. It was a long time ago."		82
64	You	"I'm a proper man. Believe me."		66
65	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"That goes for men too, but they put on an act for us. Pretend like everything's good and living in shit doesn't bother them. Like anyone falls for that."		502
66	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Oh..." She shakes her head, smiling faintly. "Believe *me*, everyone here is a 'proper' man. Must be something about poverty that makes all the men *real*."		505
67	None			56
68	You	"Wait, why? If they're thick-headed..."		69
69	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Guess I enjoyed the way he bled." Her expression doesn't change. It's hard to say if it's a joke.		70
70	Empathy	If it is, then why the melancholy?		61
71	You	"Gone? Coward! I would never leave anyone."		78
72	You	"He disappeared? Sounds like a missing persons case."		73
73	Lilienne, the Net Picker			74 75
74	Lilienne, the Net Picker		IsKimHere()	76
75	Lilienne, the Net Picker		(IsKimHere()) == false	77
76	Kim Kitsuragi	"It absolutely does not," the lieutenant quietly interjects. "We are *not* going to look for him."		77
77	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"No, no. There's nothing to find. He's dead. Lost to the waves."		82
78	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Uh..." She raises an eyebrow. "Good for you. He, however, was lost to the waves. It's been quite a while now."		82
79	You	"That's bad... What happened?"		513
80	You	"Oh..." Say no more. Wait for her to continue.		514
81	You	"He died? Was he... murdered?"		83
82	None			79 80 81
83	Lilienne, the Net Picker			84 85
84	Lilienne, the Net Picker		IsKimHere()	86
85	Lilienne, the Net Picker		(IsKimHere()) == false	512
86	Kim Kitsuragi	The lieutenant shakes his head again.		512
87	None			56
88	Shivers	The harbour seawall endures the wash of the freezing waves. Many things wash up against it and onto the beaches of Revachol. Some inanimate, some just no longer alive... You shudder.		62 71 72
89	Authority	She refuses?! But your word is the *law*. *You* are LAW!		123
90	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Like I said, fish, mostly. Sail the waves, take care of the kids. Pick nets... right now I'm tarring a little skiff."		91 92
91	You	"What else?"		93
92	You	"Is that enough to make a living?"		15
93	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"I sell the fish to people in the Delta to serve at their fancy restaurants. Authentic Insulindian cuisine."		92
94	You	"Interesting. What have you found?"		16
95	You	"I never thought the sea brought in anything particularly interesting."		16
96	You	"Alright, I think I get it. Let me ask you something else."		550
97	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Bottles. Drugs, also. Lost cargo in general." She looks at the beach. "But most of the time, it's just wood and glass."		528
98	You	"I need to know about those human bodies."		100
99	You	"Drugs? I need info on this. Major narc." (Point to yourself.)		17
100	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Well, you're barking under the wrong tree then, officer." She shakes her head. "I have no interest in floaters. Seen enough of them in my life already. A very unattractive bunch."		544
101	You	"A mine? The RCM could use a mine. Where is it?"		103
102	None			98 101 99 51 114
103	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Well, the RCM has to wait for another one, cause some army folks came by, took it in the middle of the bay and blew it up." She spits over the railing. "The blast was surprisingly timid for such a huge spiky thing."		542
104	Electrochemistry	You could use a hit right about now. Any hit really. Feel that itch in your hands, the stiffness of your neck? That strange *restlessness* in your bones?		539
105	You	"Walking on the beach. Sounds quite... romantic."		106
106	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Oh, very." She laughs. "Finding pieces of glass, bits of wood. Every once in a while we get dead bodies -- human, animal, fish, other sea creatures. A mine washed ashore, once..."		107
107	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"What else?" She looks at the beach. "Bottles. Drugs, also. Lost cargo in general. But most of the time, it's just wood and glass. *Very* romantic."		528
108	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Oh..." she looks at the pointed direction. "That's good to know, I guess. Why is it in the sea?"		562
109	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"People imagine picking up and finding *something better* is an easy solution. But how is that supposed to work, when all your time and energy goes to staying alive? You have almost nothing to set aside to actually fight your way out."		531
110	You	"Anywhere with better opportunities."		109
111	You	"You just gotta follow the work, that's where the money sleeps."		116
112	You	"Just, somewhere..." (Close your eyes.) "Away from all this sadness."		109
113	You	"Is that your boat?" (Point at the overturned boat.)	Variable["TASK.investigate_sea_fortress"] == false and Variable["village.netpicker_skiffquestion_counter"] == 0 and (Variable["village.netpicker_clicked_skiff_orb"] == true or Variable["village.netpicker_janus_bote"])	9
114	You	"Okay. Enough about this place."		552
115	You	"I understand what you're saying. It could be worse elsewhere."		117
116	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Oh, but of course -- why didn't I think of that?" She rolls her eyes. "Look, I have mouths to feed and as much as I'd like a change, I... they need stability first."		109
117	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Exactly." She tries to smile and reaches in her net. "I don't mean to complain about my sad pauper life. We do manage alright. We're tough people here."		530
118	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"I don't mean to complain about my pauper life. We are warm and fed here and..." She smiles faintly and plucks some seaweed out of the net. "I don't know, there's just something about this shit hole."		119
119	Shivers	A sudden gust of cold air blows in from the sea. The waves flow and ebb, around you the fishing village takes its slow and steady breaths... its many wooden structures worn by bitter years of salt and storm.		124
120	Lilienne, the Net Picker			121 122

123	Suggestion	She's making a joke. Her voice softens.		495

127	You	Why would anyone like it here?		128
128	Shivers	It's home.		533
129	You	Shake off the stupor.		130
130	Shivers	Even at the worst of times, Revachol cares for its inhabitants.		533
131	Hand/Eye Coordination	Factory balanced... bakelite and stainless steel.		11

137	Lilienne, the Net Picker		(Variable["auto.is_snowing"]) == false	410
138	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Aye." She looks at the rain circles on the water. "*Sunny* days. You got a problem with that?"		142
139	You	"Sunny days?" (Put your hand in the rain.)		138
140	You	"Sunny days?" (Catch a snowflake in your palm.)		141
141	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Aye." She looks at the snow melt in the water. "*Sunny* days. You got a problem with that?"		142

144	Lilienne, the Net Picker		(IsKimHere()) == false	149 150
145	You	Say nothing.		146
146	Lilienne, the Net Picker	She looks at the boat dripping with slush and nods, proudly.		409
147	Kim Kitsuragi	"No, ma'am. We have no quarrel with sunny days."		148
148	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Good. 'Twould have been bad news had it turned out it wasn't a sunny day. Bad news for the skiff. Bad news for the nets. Bad news for the kids."		347
149	You	"No, ma'am. No problem."		148
150	You	"But... it's not a sunny day."		151
151	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Sure it is. 'Twould be bad news for the skiff if it weren't. Bad news for the nets. Bad news for the kids."		347
152	Lilienne, the Net Picker	There's a moment's silence. She looks at the slush-like rain-thing melt on the yellow belly of the boat.		553
153	Authority	She sounds almost disappointed with you. *Reprimanding* you for falling and hurting your knee.		163
154	You	"I got shot in the foot. It was pretty bad-ass. You would've liked it."		169
155	You	"I'm a cop. I don't merely exist in *this* world -- I live in the *between* life and death."	Variable["village.netpicker_concpet_lifeanddeath"]	161
156	You	"Some people hurt me."		169
157	You	"I wanted to talk to you about something else -- your boat."	Variable["TASK.investigate_sea_fortress"]	169
158	You	"You seem angry. Why?"	Variable["village.netpicker_auth_reprimanding"]	159
159	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Look at you, you can barely walk!"		197 154 155 156 157
160	Conceptualization	You're not *limping*. You're *you*.		153
161	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Everyone does that, in a way. You don't have to get shot for that." She waves her hand dismissively.		162
162	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"What happened to you anyway? We heard gunshots from the town. They were closer than usual."		170
163	None			158 154 155 156 157

168	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Officer Harry... you're wounded. Why are you wounded? You look terrible."		160
169	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Is this from the shooting in town?" She's not letting it go that easy. "We heard gunshots. Not that we don't hear gunshots all the time, but they were closer than usual."		170

172	Lilienne, the Net Picker		(IsKimHere()) == false	750
173	Kim Kitsuragi	"There was an exchange of fire on Rue de Saint-Ghislaine. It's nothing to be worried about, ma'am."		750
174	Kim Kitsuragi	"Of course, ma'am. It's only for a day or two -- official police business."		227
175	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"That won't be a problem. It's windstill -- and the tar just dried." She points to her skiff next to the jetty. "We've got two days of *relative* sunshine ahead."		176
176	None			177 235 178 253 239 179
177	You	"Can I borrow your boat?"		223
178	You	"What's on that island?"		236
179	You	"Thank you, I'll use your skiff to get there then."	Variable["village.netpicker_asked_skiff_from_her"] == true	259
180	You	"I need to get to that island." (Point to it.)	Variable["TASK.investigate_sea_fortress"]	175
181	None			182 183 184 185
182	You	"I dodged the second shot. I can also get *not shot*."	Variable["village.netpicker_reaction_evaded"]	188
183	You	"I also got shot in the chest." (Point to your chest.)	Variable["plaza.tribunal_shoulder_wound_suffered"]	199
184	You	"You should see the other guys. They're all dead."		207
185	You	"I have a question for you." (Conclude.)		215
186	None			139 145
187	None			140 145
188	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Well, good for you." She smiles.		204

190	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Officer, what happened? You're wounded. Why are you wounded? You look terrible."		160

197	You	"It's nothing."		198
198	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Doesn't look like nothing. Looks like you got banged up real good."		162
199	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"That's nothing to brag about, officer."		201
200	Kim Kitsuragi	"It's not serious. He'll be okay."		205

205	Endurance	You feel the ligament move on your left shoulder. And a small, warm drip of blood. It's nothing.		206
206	None			181
207	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"So you're a killer." She nods solemnly. "That's good, I guess. I guess... Better than being dead."		208 216 209 210
208	You	"Most cops are killers."		211
209	You	"I'm not a killer, I'm a cop."		212
210	You	Scoff in a masculine manner.		213
211	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Aye, I bet they are. The good ones at least."		214
212	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Aye, I guess you are." She nods. "I understand that's how it goes."		214
213	Lilienne, the Net Picker	She just looks at you, her tea-length skirt flapping in the wind.		214
214	None			181
215	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Of course. Can I help you with something?"		346
216	You	"I was a killer long before this happened."		218
217	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Aye." She nods solemnly. "Not a lot of RCM men who aren't killers."		399

221	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Aye." She nods solemnly. "I've always taken you for one, that's for sure. Not a lot of RCM men who aren't killers."		616
222	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"I'm sad to hear that. Take care of that with ether, will you? Don't get too many RCM men around here. Be sad to lose the first one."		753
223	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"If you promise to bring it back. And no scraping the hull -- I just got it nice and yellow. And *no* drinking on the boat." Her eyes narrow. "And no joyriding, either."		224

227	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Aye," she nods.		228 229
228	You	Nod along attentively.		231
229	You	"What if I wanna rock?"		230
230	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"See, that makes me not want to lend you my skiff. On a boat, *rocking* leads to capsizing. That there is an absolutely one-hundred percent *rock-free* skiff, you got that?"		232
231	Lilienne, the Net Picker	The crow's feet disappear from the corners of her eyes, as she smiles at you.		232

522	Empathy	This is neither a touchy nor a very interesting topic for her.		523
523	Electrochemistry	She looks like she's ready to go on a date with another -- better! -- drunk. Ask her. Both of you could need some action.		732

576	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Hm, an installation?" She raises her eyebrows. "Us poor people are stupid and don't get 'installations'. All I see is a heap of trash. This actually calls for a funeral, I think."		579

639	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Funny. Funny sailor jokes." She nods, without smiling. "Sorry if I'm not laughing out loud, but the comedy has worn thin over the years."		640
640	Empathy	Great, now you reminded her of the husband.		641
641	Suggestion	It's okay, she just hasn't figured out how these things work between the sexes. Keep at it. She'll come around.		642

645	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"I have and I don't really..." She hesitates.		652
646	You	But *what* do I do then?!		647
647	Suggestion	What if I told you... it is actually possible to go on a date sober?		648 649 650
648	You	I'm listening.		651
649	You	Get out of here with your crazy fringe theories!		651
650	You	What you're suggesting is highly experimental. Possibly dangerous.		651

652	Reaction Speed	Now! Go for it!		653
653	Rhetoric	You just wanna go for a walk. What kind of a *monster* doesn't wanna go for a walk? Walks are innocent.		747

695	You	"It's gonna be weird with the three of us. Let's just drop it." (Waive the date.)		697
696	You	Smile and nod.		702
697	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Fine," she replies with a shrug. "The date is dropped. Now what else can we discuss?"		724

702	Kim Kitsuragi	"I guess I can come along for a quick stroll..." The lieutenant looks at you apologetically. "I mean if the ma'am insists, of course."		705
703	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"I do, yes. A stroll on the beach sounds nice, doesn't it?" She nods. "Alright. I'll see the kids haven't killed each other and we'll meet at Land's End in... fifteen minutes?"		693
704	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"I do, yes. A stroll on the beach sounds nice, doesn't it?" She nods. "Alright. I'll see the kids haven't killed each other and we'll meet at Land's End in... fifteen minutes?"		693
705	Esprit de Corps	I'm really sorry.		699
706	You	"I understand *nothing*."		717
707	You	"Something could happen..."		709
708	You	"Just a good old fashion walk. I like it."		721
709	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Yes," she replies with a smile. "*Someone* could get pushed in the water. Maybe even get laughed at. But I'm sure that's not gonna happen."		712
710	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"A stroll on the beach sounds nice." She nods. "Alright, I guess I'll be seeing you at Land's End in the evening. When it gets dark, alright?"		693
711	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Alright. I'll go put the kids to bed and we'll meet at Land's End in... fifteen minutes."		693

715	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Charming. My man was like that too. Had to knock two of his teeth out to establish a good relationship dynamic." She chuckles. "I'll see you at Land's End in the evening. Be there after dark, alright?"		693
716	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Charming. My man was like that too. Had to knock two of his teeth out to establish a good relationship dynamic." She chuckles. "I'll see you at Land's End in... let's say fifteen minutes."		693

721	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Me too," she replies with sudden sincerity. "It's been ages since I just had normal conversation with one of you guys."		722
722	Rhetoric	She means men.		712
723	You	"Lilienne, walk with me."		654
724	Empathy	You made her sad. She actually really wanted to go.		698

726	Logic	Indeed. You're always confused as to your whereabouts.		484
727	You	"True. Most people I've met are scared."		728
728	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Aye. No one wants to talk about how frightened they are. But only frightened people are *really* dangerous -- and *plenty* of them are dangerous."		729
729	Half Light	*She's* not afraid, however. Does that make her not dangerous?		67
730	Electrochemistry	She really liked those muscles though. It's in the way she pronounces 'sinewy'.		516
731	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Life didn't really change that much for me and the kids..." She glances at the village where two little kids are playing with what look like rocks.		522

744	Drama	Sire, she doth not believe it wasn't you.		579
745	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"Why odd? Our things are a part of our life-world. They're made with human sweat and they share human history. We should care about them as we care about humans, to some extent at least."		746
746	Conceptualization	Life-world? Someone's been reading up on last century Gottwaldian philosophers. Play it cool now.		275 276
747	Endurance	Walks are fucking *great* cardio. Very stable fat-burner. Aerobic exercise.		644 723
748	Lilienne, the Net Picker	"You need to understand that *nothing* is going to happen. We're just walking. That's it. Understood?"		687

754	Encyclopedia	This must be one of the many fortifications that was used in the dying days of the Revolution. Against Coalition forces -- before they took this city.		246
755	Interfacing	Aye-aye, captain.		252
