- Mr. Cluckers proved that the crystal fragments remain connected and are drawn to each other.
- If we can find the original source of this crystal, Fionna's reagents can nullify it, and we should be able to shut them all down.
- Excellent work, especially in the face of an army of shades and an undead chicken. Now, how do we find the original crystal to nullify it?
- I believe we can cobble together a locator device, synched to the crystal's energy, that would lead right back to the original.
- Do it. We need to find the source...and I need to find my dead warband mate. Thank you, Scholar. Yahala, let's report back to the citadel.
- The Inquest did their crystal research in that dredge mine. They're down there now, sterilizing the site to remove any trace they were ever here.
- The Inquest got where it is by stealing others' research and murdering the competition. Ready to give them a taste of their own medicine?
- I'm ready for anything that will settle this amulet business and lead me to Howl. Nobody messes with my warband, not even after they're dead.
- Your fallen comrade is already a part of this case, so solving it will tell us what happened to him. Shall we begin?
- I've found something. Are these the research results we were after?
- Let me see. Yes, you found them. There's quite a bit of useful information here—and a few Inquest secrets that my "blacksmithing" friends can put to good use.
- What else do they say?
- Not here. I'll fill you in back at the citadel. With these results and the help of the other orders, we should be able to wrap this up.
- Eager to hear your report, Centurion. We're seeing an increase in undead attacks all over the region. Safe to say Rissa's amulets are responsible?
- We've learned that they're connected to the Orrian dragon. They turn their owners into undead and draw other undead to them.
- The Vigil has one of the amulets stashed in our HQ. Are you saying that my people are in danger?
- You militant types ought to be used to that by now. With so many innocents at stake, the Vigil can defend itself.
- The Priory is working on a way to detect the amulets. We'll use our device to stop the next outbreak before it starts.
- And if the Vigil falls, who will defend all those innocents it already protects?
- This place looks ready for war, Gahn. I'm impressed.
- After all this preparation and building up of our defenses, I'll be disappointed if we're not attacked.
- The plan is simple: the ramp you just came up is the only way in. We've set up barricades to slow down and thin out attackers.
- You can also use those cannons to welcome our undead visitors. If they get through all that, we fall back to the keep.
- That means you, too, Centurion. Our house, our rules; we want live soldiers, not dead heroes. If the Vigil falls back, you fall back. Clear?
- Clear. Is there anything I should do in the mean—
- Scorch me. What were those things?
- Zhaitan. And we're going to keep seeing more: more undead that are more dangerous than usual, more often.
- They weren't playing around, were they? Is it just me, or are these amulets getting stronger?
- It's definitely getting worse. And if an amulet isn't even safe inside a Vigil fortress, it's time to re-think our approach.
- Wait until you see our locator device in action! My colleagues really outdid themselves.
- How does it work?
- Simple. I activate the device to send out a wave of energy that resonates with the dragon crystal's magic in the amulet.
- Any undead the wave encounters will show up on the readout. Remember, one of them will be wearing Rissa's trinket.
- The effect doesn't last very long, but if we lose sight of the enemy, we can always send out another pulse.
- Sounds good. Let's field-test this little gem and see if it works like it's supposed to.
- Now that's how you deploy new technology! Let's see the Vigil call out enemies they can't even see!
- I can't deny that it worked well, but there are other amulets out there...and Howl the Brazen.
- True, the case is far from closed, but our success here brings us that much closer to the source of the problem: the original dragon crystal itself.
- Let's take this amulet and the detector back to the citadel. Rytlock and the other orders need to know what we've achieved.
- Of course, though between the detector and the reagents Scholar Vivian's team provided, the Priory has this matter well in hand.
- Let me take care of a few final details here, and then I'll join you and the others.
- The orders disagree on how to proceed. So I have a plan: You choose which one we'll help. In return, I've arranged for you to permanently join that order.
- You'll still be a centurion of the High Legions, but you'll also be a link between us and your chosen order. Your warband will continue doing Citadel business while you're gone.
- I understand. Howl's involvement made this personal, but the Orrian dragon is a global threat. We need strong, reliable allies against it.
- Okay, people. Time to decide. We have the means to find the necromancer's dragon crystal, and to destroy it.
- All thanks to the Priory. We know what we're doing, so now let us destroy the crystal without interference. We work better that way.
- There's no way I'm leaving a vital search-and-destroy mission to a bunch of academics. Wait for Vigil support before you make a move.
- Either way, the Order of Whispers will do what we always do: let you draw their attention, then strike from the shadows.
- It's your call, Centurion. But remember that you're not just helping out, you're joining the order you choose.
- Welcome aboard! This marks the start of a long and prosperous partnership between you and the Durmand Priory.
