Heart of Artifice Temporary 2--Aethelus Alone

[Erekose13]

"Now that makes a lot of sense. Leywytch Jadishtai mentioned that I will not have a chance to meet the baron. Do you know what the purpose of our visit is?"

 

[Rystil Arden]

"We come seeking a dangerous and wicked madman, a Rogue Spark who seeks to slaughter the innocent. We are hoping that the Baron might be able to help locate this vile reprobate, as the lunatic was last seen in Spiras," the guard replies.

 

[Erekose13]

"That would make sense now, thank you. I hope that I'll be able to help in the search as well, should my talents be of any use."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"We will be glad for your help. A Spark as wise as you who venerates the good deeds of the Artifex Maximus should consider...you should consider accepting an appointment as a vassal of the Leywytch Jadishtai and ruling here--you would gain great power and great responsibility."

 

[Erekose13]

"An intriguing proposal indeed, hmm. Is the Leywytch a spark as well?"

 

[Rystil Arden]

"No, the Leywytch is not a Spark. She is merely a holy and selfless woman who has devoted her life to the service of the Holy One and all her might to the good of all the inhabitants of these lands, especially the common folk."

 

[Erekose13]

"I see, well that certainly makes sense. Are there many sparks in the lands of the Holy One?"

 

[Rystil Arden]

"No. Sparks are rare and special. That is why those who are good must use their special talents to help others. And those who are wicked...Rogue Sparks like the terrorist we seek...that is why they are so dangerous and must be stopped at all costs."

 

[Erekose13]

"Ah a rarety is indeed something to treasure. Let us hope that we can put an end to this rogue spark before too much is done. I imagine we'll find out more when we get to Spiras."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Indeed. Can I get you anything, or are you good to wait for us to reach the capital?"
