Unexpected visitor (7) - Quest accepted
Giving in, Eldrian agreed to play along with Skepsi's wiles. He even asked if she didn't want to up things to a multi stage quest. After all, he doubted just once would allow him to break through the crystal (as Skepsi had put it).
As Eldrian had analyzed it, he needed repeated forging to reach the peak. This was a truly common view. The stakes were simply far too high, making this absolutely basic subject a deadly thing to consider.
'It feels lacking. But people have died because of less,' Eldrian thought as he reviewed the details of the quest. Not having received one in a long time (and most of his old quests having expired) Eldrian was feeling somewhat nostalgic.
Of course, he had his quest to unlock his bloodline, but other than telling him to get the different elements, it was useless. It didn't even tell him what to do with them once he got them.
