You say, 'Hail, The Great Hero Ezra'
The Great Hero Ezra says, 'Go away before you blow my cover! I can't be seen with outsiders until you prove yourself to the akhevans...and not the ones you are thinking!'
The Great Hero Ezra says, 'You! You only have two arms and are not stupid! That's almost EXACTLY what it is I need to get to the bottom of this [conspiracy].'
You say, 'What conspiracy?'
The Great Hero Ezra narrows her eyes, giving a fierce, scrutinizing look at you, 'Don't act like you don't already know! I've seen you wandering around this place clueless.' Ezra's eyes water as she snorts before saying, 'It wasn't too long ago that I, too, was a clueless mess, only to be mocked at when I wasn't looking by better adventurers...' She wipes the tears from her eyes. 'But no more! Today I will teach you how to rise up to be the [champion] you were meant to be!'
You say, 'Wait, I'm not here to be a champion...'
The Great Hero Ezra's face lights up as any suspicion she may have had about your intentions fades from her mind. 'That's the spirit! Let's be heroes together! But first, this conspiracy you brought up. Since I've been here, I feel like I'm being watched. Something or someone is trying to take control of Luclin and has been making some plays...or so I assume. Truth be told I have no idea what is going on here, but I'm glad your [curiosity] will help get to the bottom of this.'
You say, 'I'm sorry, MY curiosity?'
The Great Hero Ezra says, 'Exactly! You see, I need someone to look into what could be trying to claw its way out of this moon. I could swear that if you put your ear to the ground, you can hear it snarling and [scratching] its way out!'
You say, 'What scratching?'
You have been assigned the task 'What Dreams May Yet Come?'.
The Great Hero Ezra says, 'Bah! What do you know, you don't have a hero's ears! You don't have a hero's eyes! You don't have a hero's tongue! I bet you can't taste half the flavors only a hero can taste! But that's why I'm here, to whip you into shape! First thing I need you to do is get the courage to leave my side. The second thing I need you to do is investigate the outpost. There is a room within the main hall. This room has a bed in it, but the akhevans do not need sleep. This must be investigated! Work up the courage to go inside that room and figure out what it could be used for!'
