Shadowheart
- Your head spins as you gather yourself. Fresh air and firm ground feel almost alien to you.
- But not as alien as the creature hiding deep inside your head. You must get rid of it.
- The artefact. You need to make sure it's secure.
- It's safe with you - Lady Shar's mission can still be fulfilled.
- But only if you can find a cure first. The tadpole must be evicted - be it by blade, magic, or any other means you can find.
- Offer the Dark Lady silent thanks for your survival this far. Beg her for guidance.
- You feel nothing. But of course, Lady Shar is no crass teacher, bludgeoning you with her instructions.
- She wants you to solve this on your own - prove yourself to her. First the parasite, then the mission. You are on the right track already.
Shadowheart will only run into 2 Intellect Devourers instead of 3 as she has no companions available in the beginning.
