Mission:A Hero's Epic - Part Nine: Find Positron

Part Nine: Find Statesman

Briefing

Diabolique is Emperor Cole's personal ghost. She's bound to him and has no free will of her own, if she's involved then Emperor Cole is defintely pulling the strings. The Praetorian Infernal acts as her bodyguard on occassion, if they have Statesman, it's going to be a tough fight. I need you to get to Infernal's Lair and see if they have him.

Infernal keeps his lair in the tunnels system under Praetoria. You'll likely encounter Resistance as well, and they tend to shoot first and ask questions later.

• Search Infernal's lair for any sign of Statesman

Statesman is one of the greatest heroes I have ever met, and I've made the acquaintance of quite a few.

I'll call around and try to get you some backup.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Statesman may be in Infernal's torture chamber right this minute.

Notable NPCs

• Ms. Liberty (Vindicators, Hero, Ally)
• Infernal (Archvillain)
• Diabolique (Archvillain)

	Infernal Taunting
	Infernal taunted you throughout the battle with him. He mentioned that Statesman was in the hands of Dominatrix and Emperor Cole was extracting 'codes' from him. Also that Vanguard would be of no use. Perhaps this has something to do with the Vanguard code that was stolen?

Resistance dialogue

Resistance 1: My heebie-jeebies have totally hit eleven... Why are we here again, slammer?
Resistance 2: Don't be a squeakbeast, chomper! Remember... Be the lion, not the squeakbeast!
Resistance 1: Be the lion... Be the lion...

Combat with Infernal and Diabolique:
Before Combat:

Infernal: Emperor Cole will be pleased with our progress. Infernal and Diabolique have what they need.

Diabolique: Yes, my Master.

Combat Start:

Infernal: How dare you bring that woman in here!

Diabolique: Master declares your lives forfeit!

Diabolique: Your attempts are futile!

Diabolique: I find your power amusing

Diabolique: Death will come to all!

Infernal: The last stage of Emperor Cole's plan is underway!

Diabolique: I can not die again!

Infernal: Your precious Statesman is in the hands of the Dominatrix.

Infernal: She and Marauder will get the codes out of him.

Infernal: Your Vanguard will be of no use!

Ms. Liberty: Infernal may have given us just the info we need. When we get back to Primal Earth, I will talk to Vanguard and figure out what is going on.

After Defeating Diabolique:

Diabolique: Will I finally be free?

Ms. Liberty: That ghost was creepy.

Debriefing

If Statesman is in the hands of Dominatrix and Marauder, we have to make haste to rescue him. I will follow up with Vanguard on what Infernal might have been talking about.
