L96. The Oracle of Shangri-La IV

Npc : Scholar of the Classics Thorkin
🗺️ : Dazzledell Hollow (x:429 y:530)

Thorkin takes out the mysterious shimmering stone.

"Please give this to Jennifer, our head scientist..." Thorkin's tone of voice conveys a sense of trepidation and hesitance.

"Please tell her that the future of the Myriglia Tribe is at stake, and ask her to try and decipher the illegible writing on the stone."

"And remember to be extra courteous with her, OK?" Thorkin shudders slightly as he says the words, and looks at you with an expression of pity written on his face.

"Humph! It's been ages since Raum and Thorkin have been to see me!" Jennifer declares bitterly.

Npc : Head Scientist Jennifer

As Thorkin instructed, you politely tell Jennifer about the situation and about the appraisal of the stone.

Typical! Why can't Thorkin do his own dirty work?" Jennifer continues to glare at you, mumbling about Thorkin under her breath. You think you make out a few Myriglia curses.

Thorkin was right to worry. Jennifer seems like the impatient type.

You plaster an innocuous smile on your face, telling yourself you'd better be wary if you want to stay on Jennifer's "good side", (if indeed, such a side exists.)

"Okay whatever, this is important after all. Give me that!" Jennifer snatches the stone from your hand, and gets to work.
