Nkaw |
|
YOU: You look a bit troubled. |
|
Nkaw: I am! |
Nkaw: There is something that has been troubling me ever since I joined the Shadow Squadron. |
Nkaw: Polyuntri Stevald is second in command of our troops here. |
Nkaw: Since he is my immediate supervisor, it is important that I have a good relationship with him. |
Nkaw: Unfortunately for me, he is quite invested in worshipping Laanx and it influences many of his decisions for promotions. |
Nkaw: It is unfortunate because I fell out of favour with the Laanx temple in Hydlaa as a child. |
Nkaw: Menlil caught me stealing candle holders and I was told never to return. |
Nkaw: There must be some way of getting back in the temple's good graces. |
Nkaw: Will you speak to Menlil about what must be done to mend this rift with the Temple of Laanx? |
|
YOU: Yes. |
|
Nkaw: Thank you. |
Nkaw: Go and ask him if he remembers me; if needed, remind him of the candlesticks. |

Menlil Toresun |
|
YOU: Hello, do you remember Nkaw? |
|
Menlil: Hmm, the name does sound familiar…can you tell me something more that might help me remember? |
|
YOU: He stole some candlesticks when he was a child. |
|
Menlil: Ah yes, now I remember the lad. |
Menlil: Youngest person ever to be restricted from access to the temple. |
Menlil: And he sent you to try and make amends did he? |
|
YOU: Yes, Nkaw wants to make amend. |
|
Menlil: Good. |
Menlil: It is always good to hear someone displaying their contrition for disturbing the temple. |
Menlil: Laanx is very sensitive to the goings-on in the temple and does not forgive easily. |
Menlil: For Laanx, the tasks one must perform to atone when they have wronged the temple are always greatly disproportionate to the initial crime. |
Menlil: Of course, I do not administer absolution. |
Menlil: You must speak to Sharven about contrition. |
Menlil: May Laanx frighten the shadow from thy path. |

Sharven Xant-Areth |
|
YOU: Do you know anything about contrition? |
|
Sharven: Yes, who is it that seeks contrition? |
|
YOU: Nkaw. |
|
-Sharven takes hold of his holy symbol and closes his eyes and concentrates. The holy symbol begins to glow.- |
|
Sharven: Oh Laanx, by your might, how can Nkaw give thanks and be redeemed in your sight? |
|
-Sharven's holy symbol glows red and he seems completely entranced.- |
|
-This continues for the next few moments until the symbol and Sharven both return to normal.- |
|
Sharven: Laanx does not forget or forgive so easily as us. |
Sharven: My feeling is that Laanx is still very angry with Nkaw even though his transgression is two decades old. |
Sharven: He should do some tasks in a show of good faith to Laanx, but as I said Laanx is not favorable to him. |
Sharven: I suggest for him to ask someone else to amend for him. |
Sharven: You look like a possible candidate. |
Sharven: Will you be working for his atonement? |
|
YOU: Yes, I will work towards his atonement. |
|
Sharven: Praise be to Laanx! |
Sharven: It is always good to see someone tend to the needs of others with greater goals in mind. |
Sharven: First, you must be anointed: you cannot seek atonement without anointment. |
Sharven: In order to do so we will need pure water, one gold ore, and an Oil of Prayers. |
Sharven: You can speak to some folks and find these things, or dig them out of the earth as needed. |
Sharven: I know the Oil of Prayers is very rare and I think only one of the many alchemists makes this concoction. |
Sharven: When you return, have all three at the ready, and give them to me. |
Sharven: Now go, and may Laanx frighten the shadow from your path. |

Jardet Forsill |
|
YOU: Hello, I'm looking for pure water. |
|
Jardet: Pure water? |
Jardet: Well you came to the right place. |
Jardet: The mystical waters of this fountain are a blessing from the depths of Yliakum meant to renew our hearts. |
Jardet: Of course, if you want some you are going to have to find and empty potion bottle in order to capture some. |
Jardet: I suggest speaking to a cook to get an empty bottle if you haven't one with you. |
Jardet: I will fill it for you on your return. |

|
YOU: I need an empty bottle. |
|

|
-Reffitia takes a bottle from an old barrel with many more inside, sneezing at the dust on it.- |
|
Reffitia: Phew, dusty old thing. |
|
-Reffitia hands you the bottle and then dusts her hands off.- |
|
Reffitia: Glad to help! |

Charisa Malod |
|
YOU: What can you tell me about the oil of prayers? |
|
Charisa: Oh, Oil of Prayers? |
Charisa: Normally I'd be happy to help someone atone and return to the embrace of Laanx, but I cannot now. |
Charisa: One needs to be in a good frame of mind to work in Alchemy. |
Charisa: I am far too despondent over the lack of word from the Bronze Doors about my husband Alekial to even pick up my mortar and pestle. |
Charisa: If you can get me word from Aerayau Strongwill about my husband, I might be able to gather the focus to aid you. |
|
→ Go to
Aerayau Strongwill |
|
YOU: Charisa sent me to get word of her husband, Alekial Malod. |
|
Aerayau: I would imagine that Mrs. |
Aerayau: Malod is dismayed that Alekial has been gone so long. |
Aerayau: However, he did sign an extended duty contract inside the Stone Labyrinths. |
Aerayau: He's serving with Barl Prestis in there, so he's in good hands. |
Aerayau: Here. |
Aerayau: Allow me to write up a note to Charisa to ease her fears. |
|
-Aerayau takes a quill and parchment, then quickly writes a note and seals it.- |
|
Aerayau: Ensure this gets to her post-haste. |
|

Charisa Malod |
|
YOU: Aerayau gave me this letter to give to you. |
|
Charisa: News, so fast? |
|
-Charisa unseals the letter and reads it.- |
|
Charisa: Signed an extended duty contract… |
Charisa: alive and well… |
Charisa: misses me and hopes to see me in a few months? |
Charisa: Oh, that's such a relief! |
|
-Charisa holds the letter to her heart for a moment and takes a deep breath.- |
|
Charisa: Very well, you wanted some Oil of Prayers. |
Charisa: I believe I have the ingredients to make them; one moment please. |
|
-Charisa enters her house and re-emerges shortly afterward.- |
|
Charisa: Well look at this! |
Charisa: I looked and I still had some already made! |
Charisa: Thank you so much for helping me. |
Charisa: I hope this brings peace. |
|
-Charisa carefully lowers a small flask to you.- |

Sharven Xant-Areth |
|
YOU: Here are the items you need, pure water, a gold ore, and the oil of prayers. |
|
-Sharven pours the water into the magical brazier to his side.- |
|
Sharven: Laanx, may this water purify the soul of the contrite Nkaw. |
|
-Sharven melts the ore in the brazier.- |
|
Sharven: May the melting of this ore to pure gold symbolize the melting of the impurities from Nkaw's heart. |
|
-Sharven heats the flask over the brazier until the liquid inside starts bubbling.- |
|
Sharven: This we ask in the name of Laanx. |
|
-He uses a Cold glyph to cool the oil back down, then pours it on your head.- |
|
Sharven: Be anointed, Nkaw. |
Sharven: You are cleansed and once again pure in the eyes of Laanx. |
Sharven: You may want to tell him now that he is cleansed. |
Sharven: I look forward to seeing Nkaw back in the Temple once again. |
|
→ Go to
Nkaw |
|
YOU: You have been cleansed. |
|
Nkaw: And you smell like oil. |
|
-Nkaw smiles and makes a small bow to you.- |
|
Nkaw: Polyuntri is sure to look upon me more kindly and think of me for promotions now. |
Nkaw: Thanks! |
Nkaw: This ought to cover your trouble. |
|
-Nkaw gives you some coins.- |
