Rewards Dialog

You explain to Shah-hi what you found in the depths of the temple.

Shah-hi tells you, "Wow! That's more than we could've hoped for."

Shah-hi tells you, "You actually found and helped one of the four Sisters mentioned in the lore we've been researching? That's unbelievable."

Shah-hi tells you, "I have to relay this info to Popkin immediately. We'll have to begin looking for sites in the areas where the sacred materials were found."

Shah-hi tells you, "Thank you very much for your assistance. Here, let me reward you for your part in this."

You've earned 210,000,000 experience.

You've earned 20,000 Luminance.

Shah-hi gives you Legendary Key.

Shah-hi tells you, "If you're interested, my brother Kaltus has run into some problems with his dig site, just outside of the Canyons of Neftet, in the desert. I'm sure he'd love the assistance."

Shah-hi tells you, "For now, however, I'll send you to a place prepared for you to use that key. You may also find that where your going makes it easier to get to Kaltus."

You allow Popkin of the Gate to examine your The Sisters of Light.

Popkin of the Gate tells you, "Is that what I think it is?"

You hand over 1 of your The Sisters of Lights.

Popkin of the Gate tells you, "This is exactly what I was looking for!"

Popkin of the Gate tells you, "It's a much later period transcription of the lore we've been researching, so I'll need to crosscheck it against the older pieces in case the story evolved over time, but this still invaluable to our research here.

Popkin of the Gate tells you, "I hope this'll do for compensation for your skills and time. You've given us a great leap forward here."

You've earned 45,000,000 experience.

You've earned 5,000 Luminance.

Popkin of the Gate gives you Legendary Key.
Other Interactions

Lugian Miner tells you, "Greetings."

Lugian Miner tells you, "Did you see those things? I'm not going back in there."

Lugian Miner tells you, ""I've run into a lot of things in all my years, but a horde of elemental lizards trying to chew my face off is a bit much, even for me."
Giving Damaged Yalaini Tome to Bretself the Translator

You give Bretself the Translator Damaged Yalaini Tome.

Bretself the Translator tells you, "Well, what have we here? Where did you find this?"

You explain where you found the ancient tome.

Bretself the Translator tells you, "Fascinating. You know, this book isn't as old as its location may lead you to believe. This appears to be penned by one of the Adjanites, which were an order of Empyreans from Asheron's time, only a few thousand years ago. The story itself seems far older, though. She refers to it as coming from a Falatacot tribe. Very strange..."

Bretself the Translator tells you, "But I digress. You can see for yourself, and I won't keep you here any longer."

Bretself the Translator gives you The Sisters of Light.
Showing The Sisters of Light to Shah-hi

You allow Shah-hi to examine your The Sisters of Light.

Shah-hi tells you, "The whole legend... this is an amazing find. You should take this to Popkin of the Gate, near Cragstone. She's the one collating all of the lore. She'll reward you well for this, I'm sure."

Shah-hi tells you, "I'm stuck here dealing with angry Gromnies and even angrier miners..."
