The Amell Legacy: Transgressions

[NPCs]

"Agreed," Dau replies easily, moving smoothly over to touch a thin and disproportionately long finger against Carver's knee. "Ah. The shell is female. That is incorrect."

[Carver Amell]

"C-can you f-fix it?" he whispers. 

[NPCs]

"Yes. It is a great expenditure however. Your path has not earned such a gift so it must be barter," Dau says, tone faintly apologetic. "Even in Father's Domain, there are limits and rules to what the divine might do."

[Bethany]

Bristingly, Beth steps forward and demands, "what kind of barter?" Carver would sell his soul for this and I'm not letting him be taken advantage of! Not again!

[Haliel Lightsong]

"He means a quest, don't you?" Lightsong says, nodding. 

[NPCs]

"Yes."

[Marian Hawke]

"A quest -- we can do that. What do you need done?" asks Marian, quickly. 

[NPCs]

Dua goes silent, then hums softly. "Give'em a minute, he's communing with the whole family to ask around for the right task that needs doing. Given the folks you have with you boyo, I suspect it'll be more than cleaning the grottos or the like."

[Tethras Clan]

"Given the- oh. I suppose it would be silly to think you were unaware of our entire group," Lighstong realizes.

[Helene Dakesh]

Helene nods. "Divine beings like The Eldest Oak can sense when anyone enters close proximity to their domain. The Eldest Oak was most assuredly aware of our presence long before we reached the town named for His mortal conduit."

[NPCs]

"Yes," Dau says abruptly. "Your group was of great interest. Very interesting. Many of the Daughters are hoping to be called to speak with you." Shifting so the 'head' of the golem form is facing Lightsong, he continues, "there is a pestilence deep in the earth, clinging to the deepest tips of Father's roots. We shall heal and guide the two in exchange for cleansing this irritant and preventing a reinfection."

[Haliel Lightsong]

"A.. pestilence?" Lightsong asks slowly. "I can cure disease, in small doses but..."

[NPCs]

"Your blade is sufficient instrument for curing this pestilence," Dau informs her politely.

[Helene Dakesh]

"Which two?" asks Helene, cool as a cucumber. 

[NPCs]

"Carver and the shaman-that-should-be."
