• (An infernal circle near the rat altar in Gauntlet of Shar, Arcana check):
  • (Successful): “The hallmarks of a ritual... but not one I am familiar with.”

  • (Knowing its purpose): “That gem looks like it belongs upon the altar from earlier.”
• (After finishing other GS Trials, spotted a gem, not knowing its purpose): “Another gem. They must have some significance.”

    • (Responding remark): “Ketheric Thorm shall be vulnerable now. The time to strike is upon us.”
  • (Playing as Shadowheart): “You chose well, Shadowheart. You may have angered your goddess, but now we have an aasimar as an ally.”
    • (Responding remark): “Ketheric Thorm shall be vulnerable now. The time to strike is upon us.”

• (Killed her):
  • (Having Shadowheart in party/Playing as Shadowheart): “A sorry outcome.”
