Ravoth Has Sworn to Help Me
I must travel to Vril and only Ravoth knows the way. I must trust that he will not lead me astray. He has given his word that I will not come to harm by his hand.
| You helped Philima put Enrick's remains to rest a short while ago. It was a somber event, but you pushed through. Since then, Philima has called you to her hall of council to discuss what she claims is a most important matter. You arrive in the long, white, marble corridor now as the waning afternoon sun floods through a high window. Philima sits at a wooden table with a large tome laid open in front of her. Upon hearing your footsteps, she turns and waves you to her side warmly. | |||||
| Seeker, I've been waiting for you. I know you are just now beginning to come into your own and I wish we had more time to discuss these things. You are still just a sapling being forced into the harsh winter of reality, but all must be risked for the sake of freedom or all will be lost.
I have been studying this text for months now and it is the only thing I can think of that might give us a hope against Zeruul. It speaks of the icy caverns of Vril. The Vrilya are said to be an ancient race and according to this, they hold all the secrets of the Levyn. It is to Vril you must go to learn how to defeat Zeruul once and for all. I know of this land from my books, but I myself have never seen their glowing metropolis. I would be of no assistance to you on your travels there. There is one who has gone to Vril and came back again, though. He was unwilling to help at first, but he was swayed when I told him of the Nayavi Enrick entrusted to you. |

| Philima looks to the corner before nodding her head to what you now recognize to be a person in shadows. The figure emerges and is none other than the Scarred Man himself. You look at Philima in shock, but this all seems to be as she intended. The Scarred Man begins to explain. | |||||
| There is much that you have yet to learn. Time is of the essence and cannot be wasted on a discussion here. There will be opportunity to reveal all on our way. You have only to trust that I will not lead you astray. I swear on my name, Ravoth Rihn, that no harm will befall you by my hand. | |||||
