- Shoba is on his way to the Castrum. Well done. This could be the edge we need to finally oust the Flame Legion from the Castrum.
- Got it.
- That's great news. Bye.
- I have to stay here and keep the harpies out of the Tarstar tribe's territory. Shoba refused to go unless I promised.
- The Eye of God! It burns! Hot! The cat-shaman hears it. He tells Nrocroc family about the Eye's procle...procla...proclamiss...ugh...commands.
- The Eye changed. It speaks with a new voice now.
- Whose voice?
- The voice of Moop! Moop speaks to God. Sees through the Eye! Moop!
- A rogue Flame shaman named Scaldmaw has been using cheap tricks to bend the grawl Nrocroc tribe to his will. They worship the Eye. If I gave them a display of power, perhaps they'd bend to my will instead.
- The Eye?
- Display of power?
- What do you need me to do?
- Scaldmaw is trying to impress smaller minds with simple pyrotechnics. The grawl don't know any better. If he were dead, I could do an impressive switcharoo on the Eye, and they'd revere me instead. The Moop would be a god.
- What was that about an eye?
- Hmm? Oh, right. Don't worry. I'm focused on the goal. We must convince the grawl to help us at Atrox Castrum. We must convince the grawl to help us at Atrox Castrum. We must...
- Just watch yourself.
- An Asuran experiment gone haywire landed some tech and junk nearby. It resembles an eye to the less discerning of world. Naturally, the grawl revere it as their god.
- What was that about a display of power?
- I will. I'm as eager to figure this out as you are. And eventually, you'll need to share some details about this "long-range plan" of yours.
- I have no time for this.
- I can't work my hypnotic charms until that flaming bitumen is crushed. Hit Scaldmaw with everything you've got. Once he's out of the way, there'll be no stopping me.
- No time for that.
- "Get those grawl on our side," they said, like it's as easy as reconfiguring a paramagical fan. Pfah! They may as well have asked me to herd rats.
- The Nrocroc tribe utilizes primitive magic that actually manages to be somewhat effective. It has my superiors all in a tizzy about getting the grawl to zap the Flame Legion for us.
- I remember, but I can't wait for this to be over so I can start forgetting.
- Culi and his fellow shamans have learned to counteract certain Flame Legion effects. It's remarkable, really. I wouldn't have expected such innovation from anyone other than an asura.
- I have to see that. Bye.
- Don't suppose you're going my way? I'm trying to get this marmox through those caves.
- What's through the cave?
- The grawl worship a giant stone head on the other side. If I can get this marmox, or more precisely, the fuel it's carrying up there, I can put on quite a show. Should be enough to convince them to help fight at the castrum. So, what do you say?
- Have you kids ever heard the tale of the Raven Witch?
- Did you bring the fuel I need?
- Swashbuckler's Cove
- Uh, no.
- Oh. I thought you had something for me. I guess it's still on the way.
- What are you expecting?
- Can I get some backup?
- I'm waiting for a shipment of fuel to feed into that chunk of stone the grawl call "God's Skull."
- Why would you do that?
- Oh. I see.
- They revere that thing, and if you can make them think it's talking, you can influence them. I figure with a bit of fireworks, I can get them do just about anything.
- And what did you have in mind?
- I'm trying to get their shaman to join the fight at Atrox Castrum. He knows spells to counteract Flame Legion lava magic, and we need that right now. Badly.
- An interesting plan. I hope it works.
- It worked! Yeah! Did you see that? Flames practically shot out the Skull's nose! Kroot's off and running, headed for Atrox Castrum.
- Where did he go?
- I should see what he's doing.
- He's gone up to the Castrum to extinguish some of the Flame Legion magic for us. This is a huge benefit to our fight.
- A fight I should be a part of. Bye.
- I still have plenty of fuel. I'll stay and maintain an influence over the tribe. Last thing we need is one of them to go drag Kroot back.
