NPC:/fact The goddess of the sea put a poweful curse on that crystal. You want to be cautious with it. That kind of curse can transform a living person into a walking drowned corpse.

NPC:/talk The more devoted a minion is to the sea goddess, the stronger her curse on that creature. The elemental you killed at Sunken Bay must've loved the sea goddess deeply to be so greatly cursed.

NPC:/contend But don't worry. The Malika are talented in breaking such curses. Just perform a quick ritual in front of that Holy Malika Totem over there.

NPC:/dialogue The Malika have a great respect for nature and draw a great deal of power from it. Even the might of the sea goddess is no match for them.

NPC:/dialogue That crazy inventor didn't damage the crystal in any way, did he? You see, we're trying to create a number of compasses to help us navigate to Auroria.

NPC:/excuse Crystals like these are a key component. But all of this nonsense about curses--hogwash! Inventor Polonius must not be as intelligent as a I thought, believing in such faerie tales.
