Active Quests - Day 9
A Pact of Pleasure (Updated)
Graz'zt intervened directly for the first time in the field—flooding Minthara's mind with lust the instant she pressed into yours, corrupting her without a single touch. His power is growing, and so are his expectations.
Find a Cure (Updated)
A shared vision hit the whole party at once, stopped only by Shadowheart's mysterious relic—three figures loomed in the psychic storm, names only you recognized. Ketheric Thorm. Gortash. Orin. Whatever's coming, it's bigger than goblins.
The Githyanki Warrior (Updated)
She dressed for you tonight, whether she'd admit it or not, and for the first time pulled you into her tent wanting instead of enduring. "You have had yours and I have had mine"—the closest thing to intimacy she knows how to offer.
Daughter of Darkness (Updated)
Her relic saved the whole party from a psychic onslaught, and Lae'zel's suspicion of it nearly started a fight. That night she asked for somewhere private, just the two of you, next time—an invitation, not a ritual.
The Unwritten
Withers claims to have no records of you in his books—no fate to follow, no soul to return should you fall. He won't interfere. But he's watching.
Our Fiery Friend (Updated)
The vault raid paid off—infernal metal now sits in your pack, the last piece Dammon needs to fix Karlach's engine for good. She's also started asking what you'd do for her without the rituals at all, and the answer mattered more than either of you expected.
Get Help from Auntie Ethel
A bargain struck: Mayrina's whole grim operation moves to the Grove in exchange for a clean youth potion, her petrified dwarf, a strand of hag hair, and her cauldron. Ethel expects her end kept in four days—or there'll be a reckoning.
Kindred Schemer
The note is in hand—proof of Kagha's pact with the Shadow Druids to strangle the Grove from within. Leverage, ready to be spent the moment it's needed.
The Blasphemous Rite
Birth, Growth, Decay, Death, Rebirth—the Oak Father's sacred cycle, and somewhere in it, a way to make blasphemy stick. The seed is planted in your pocket. The ritual isn't planted in your head yet.
The Blade Declined (Updated)
Wyll's fully embedded now—cooking dinner, trading recipes, first in line for the ritual, and clearly hiding something of his own.
Unlocking the Black Art
A humming purple gem pulled from the wreckage of the Matriarch's lair—recognized on sight as the key to something specific. For now, it just rides in your pack.
The Drow (New)
Minthara marked the tadpole in you as kinship, then Graz'zt marked her with something else entirely. Five days until she reaches the grove—Whether that makes her an asset, a weapon, or a liability yet to detonate is still an open question.
Devil's Advocate (New)
Wyll speaks of a reckoning, a pact, a veil about to lift—Karlach isn't the only one with hellfire waiting on a debt. Whatever he owes, and to whom, hasn't surfaced yet.
