I am Frederick Gustavus Burnaby, of the red captains of Mars. I am searching for my friend, Alonzo Quinton Freemerchant. He is also a member of the red captains. Freemerchant was last seen in this area. If you can discover him or bring me proof of his whereabouts, I will be very grateful and will reward you accordingly.
Gooday mate, perhaps you could help out an ol' game hunter. I've hunted on Mars a number of times, but I've never bagged a bloomin' steppe tiger. I've heard about a legendary "she-devil" of the desert who travels with two tigers constantly at her side. Could be easy picking, eh? Whadda ya say?
I've been told that strange things have been occurring around here - bizarre tales of ghosts and strange sightings of monsters. Can you believe how ridiculous these stories are? They're just ancient tall tales that have been concocted to protect the remaining monuments that still stand.
