"An expert healer might be able to cut it out of him, but the embedded see is near the neck and backbone and doing so would pose other risks before even reaching the seedpod cyst. Stinging woodflies do not kill their hosts. He will be fine with the appropriate attentions and I can provide those."
A raven flies down onto the Guardian's shoulder and he seems to converse with it. Others come and flock near to him, then they fly off in a great cacophonous cloud of black birds.
He heads back down into the underground chambers to personally oversee the damage wrought. The rats have mostly fled, leaving the eyeless corpse of Bloodwhisker Gannu. After inspecting other chambers the Guardian says there was evidence of two large rats, each in their own breeding pits. Bloodwhisker and the unnatural rat corpses he wishes to see burned, while the other rats and goblins are left for scavenging reptilian and insectile beasts that answer the call of the Guardian.
After talking further with you about the pool at the bottom of the pit, the Earth Nexus as calls it, he wards it off for now as he works on restoring the fountain, the Water Nexus. It seems that water from the smashed fountain caused the maze corriodor to go muddy and spilled down to the Earth nexus where it contaminated the site at the bottom of the chamber. There is an acidic ooze creature residing at the Earth nexus now, possibly created as a side effect of the activation and use of the Eye of Night. It cannot climb up and the Guardian plans to study it for now to attempt to gain greater insight, or at least to not remove it until he needs access to the Earth nexus again.
He talks with NR4ZN about the ottotowans and the warzoders tale. He works with Weylan, preparing fungal decantations and decoctions for him as the cyst hardens. He listens to reports of ravens and sends them off again. He works with Inamar to have her get used to the staff and to prepare for the ritual to transfer his staff to her. For Inamar it requires binding with what he calls a geasa to the staff and its purpose of restoring guardianship of the Eye of Night. The ritual will require witnesses and participants, and the Guardian asks NR4ZN and Weylan to participate at the time of the ritual though it will require a minor geasa of them as well as participants to keep the secrets of this druid site.
