It’s psychology, philosophy, history, and storytelling all in service of the GAME.

Quest Design (Narrative Work for ARPG Quest)
Quest Name: False Weight
NPC Quest Giver: Camille Clau
Reasons for this Quest: The Judicial Temple once was a symbol of balance and justice. Allowing for the scales of the court to weigh actions and give just consequences. The gods gave the temple an artifact that let the user perceive demonic influence from others. As the judges became prideful and arrogant of their status amongst the nation, their use of this artifact waned, and its knowledge faded to myth and rumors. Camille wishes to retrieve the artifact to use it to find a hidden demonic rift near her hometown, hoping to find her father who she believes was taken there.
Quest Item: Libra’s Blessing
This coin holds the blessing of Libra. Those who possess the coin will perceive demonic corruption in the soul of others around them.
Quest Offer Dialogue:
“Why am I hiding? Same reason you are not. We each have our strengths, lets adhere to them.”
“I need some help with something in that Temple. I’ve been hired to retrieve some cursed artifact. Normally I’d acquire it myself but with the amount of raft I’ve seen …well, that’s not my expertise.”
“If you could deliver the cursed piece to me, I’ll pay you a cut of my quoted reward.”
Deliver the item Libra’s Blessing to Camille Clau
Armor Pieces: Retrieved after defeating Corrupted Judge Pierre
Slain Court Ring: A small blood diamond inlaid in a gold ring with an inscription on the inner rim. “Fiat Justitia, Ruat Caelum.” Let justice be done, though the heavens may fall.
Coif of Poena: A chainmail coif. There are thorns woven into the crown. Wearing it must cause immense pain.
Dread Executioner’s Axe: Inscription on the axe pommel “This alone is what is asked of Justice, a moment for your plea, a swift sentence, and a clean axe.”

New Alexandria (Short Story set in the Pre-Established Universe of Halo)
“Command Three Five Actual. Convoy has halted on the 516 Highway. Requesting QRF!” Luke shouted into his intercom system.
The pursuing Phantom had turned port side to the halted convoy. Its plasma cannon fired into the front Warthog’s chassis, causing it to lurch onto two wheels momentarily. The Marine behind the mounted chaingun briefly lost his grip, jerking the gun up as he worked to regain his balance. Above them, the Phantom’s bay doors opened up.
