If anything but the second option | If a non-Githyanki character is speaking and selects anything but the second option, the githyanki become hostile. Otherwise, Voss will command Lae'zel to go to the crèche and aid the search for the artefact. If Shadowheart is in the party, she becomes incredibly nervous, as she knows she possesses the artefact they're seeking. | ||
If Shadowheart was killed and the only party members present are Githyanki, the narrator's lines are still roughly the same, but instead of Shadowheart being nervous, some of those nerves are passed on to the player-character. | |||
===Githyanki Character Speaks with Voss=== | |||
''Note: This may have different outcomes for a Githyanki Origin character, vs. a Character disguised as a Githyanki.'' | |||
If Lae'zel is in the party, her usual preamble will still happen. Players will need to select options that equate to "I will speak for her" for this sequence to trigger. | |||
Voss will tell the player that they are unknown to him and ask for an explanation. Available responses are all as follows, with a [Githyanki] prefix displayed next to each one. | |||
# ''Show deference.'' Bow and explain that you are lost. | |||
# I am no crèche hatchling. Do not speak to me as one. | |||
# ''Tell him about your parasite and ask for help.'' | |||
# Indeed. I came from the crèche. | |||
Voss will be the friendliest to the player if they choose the 2nd option. | |||
If the only characters present are Githyanki, and the player carries the artefact, the narrator will say a few lines to indicate that the Artefact is what Voss is seeking. | |||
The following options are available with no [Githyanki] prefix attached. | |||
# I need to know more. What is its appearance? Its purpose? | |||
# I don't know of such a weapon. | |||
# ''Produce the artefact. Ask him if this is what he seeks.'' | |||
Selecting option 2, then 3, will cause Voss and his Githyanki to depart. | |||
