At least here we have the hope of stopping it, if we can reach Arylyra. Funny though, that you should use the word selfishness, as I would have thought selflessness would be more appropriate, considering our purpose here. Then, the ways of spirits are often a mystery, even to those of us who can see into their world.”“To answer your questions, no, no, and no, but the only power we have found which seems to hold back or even challenge the evil that is the darkness, is Arylyra’s. Well, except for the Great Shaman who was guardian of her shrine, and he was only was able to protect a single village and it’s graveyard from being corrupted by the darkness, by sacrificing himself and tying his spirit to his healing staff. Though the people there could not leave and their supplies were almost gone, before we brought them back to the copse around the shrine here. That was the only village within days of Arylyra’s shrine, which has not fallen to the darkness, including the one we were sent from to seek the source of the dark beasts they had seen, and we have no idea how much further it has spread past that, or even how long the Shaman can hold the darkness out. Do you know the nature of the darkness, spirit?”</blockquote>
