Dialogue
Defendant Marssen
Listen, it's true I make weapons. I'm a weaponsmith! Just like my father, and his father before him. But I don't sell them to known murderers and pirates!
Defendant Marssen
I sold a remodeled cannon, but it was to an Austeran city guardsman! Not the pirate Morpheus! I'd never have dealings with his lot!
Defendant Marssen
I got a letter complaining about having trouble with the cannon; the writer wanted to meet outside the city, but didn't give a name. Before I could refuse, I was arrested.
Defendant Marssen
Jura knew his way around a blade, so he offered to spy on the meeting place and try to find out who'd sent the letter. Whoever was at that meeting must've killed him!
Defendant Marssen
Even if I'm put to the death for this, I don't want to go to my grave knowing I caused my friend to die, as well. Can you see what's going on? And avenge Jura's death if possible?
Defendant Marssen
If you can find the |nn;@NPC_NAME(6402)|r or the |nn;cannon|r I sold him, there must be some kind of evidence there.
Defendant Marssen
You found the engraving? Then I can't hide the truth. My father taught me never to carve a name on a weapon; it's a jinx. I sold Morpheus that cannon because I'd carved his name in it. I knew it would malfunction, and wanted to kill him.
