Message: <blockquote data-quote="Phoenix" data-source="post: 2332819" data-attributes="member: 16166">Vulgarth's face looks up from the crowd of children as Taran calls his name, his wise old face calmly looking at the halfling and his ward as they scurry down the ladder from up high.  Taran's eager blurting of recent events is almost spat out into his lap, and as the tale is told Vulgrath barely pays attention as he lifts the small child into his arms.With one hand slowly drifting over her frightened face, Vulgarth intones an ancient spell and concentrates intently on the child.  His eyes glow softly for a moment before his hand wavers across her face a second time, her eyes close, and she sleeps."You cannot help this child Taran."  The old man's voice was obviously once powerful and commanding, however even the passing of years can effect the majesty of an elf, for now it wavered and crackled.  "Her soul has been taken from her body, harvested as were her teeth, blood, hair, fingernails, retinal fluid and even one of her kidneys.  It seems that she has fallen victim of organ farmers, though not like any I have heard of before."He mutters something under his breath, placing the child down away from the bubbling vats nearby before continuing.  "Most organ farmers do not have the necessary equipment to extract somebody's soul and still leave them alive and walking.  It is a very dangerous act, one which many ancient sorcerers have tried to master and failed for years.""Taran, we can look after her here, you do not have to take this any further.  But if you truely want to help this girl....you will have to go to the surface, to find whatever manner of creatures would do something like this."</blockquote>
