Cruel Intentions

---

We must find Shourloth the Cruel, if we are to get the Divine Word of Suffering from him. Perhaps this was Carlliazidajjala plan all along? To hoodwink us into sundering Mount Pyre so she could treat with this dragon and bargain away the Divine Word? It is said that when a dragon is injured it will return to its lair, the dragons of Mount Pyre have not had the chance to conquer lairs of their own. If we can lure one in, then wound it, we can follow it back to where it emerged from. Then we may lie in wait for Shourloth, if he hasn't already emerged, that is.

You have the Crown of Eblius, [%NAME]. You are a Duke of Flame in your own right. We now have the the means to breach the defenses of Arcarax's Fortress of the Apocalypse. We also have Carlliazidajjala's loyalty once more. I remember when she was a messenger, she was the most passionate about the fates her goddess spun into creation, she defended them against all who would seek to break them. It was this devotion and passion that caused the rift between her and the gods after the mortal realm emerged. With you in possession of Word and the Crown I doubt she will betray us again. At least until we defeat Arcarax. As we continue with this quest to avert the Apocalypse, each step brings us closer to her betrayal. We must be vigilant.
