Heart of a Volcano

Miss_Behaviour

Oi cutters,

Just making a file for this reagent.

Currently Valloth is helping come up with a rig for this. Updated her file for it.
She wants to meet the company with business hats on to pitch the ideas and her price.

Otherwise, our options are a trek up to a volcano north of the Stormhorns, which might be a cakewalk, or accepting the Mystran's aid tickling a magma elemental to pull it outta a lake of lava.

When does she want to meet?

//Think the meeting needs @SpiffyMeister to decide as I'm told Seter got approval to speak to the NPCs?//

Facilitated a meet twixt Gill and Valloth.
Had three rigs rattling round her idea-pot.

Option 1:
Trek up to the dormant volcano in the Stormhorns. Heart might be weak and might affect the surrounding area if we wake it up.
Easiest to get to. Safest to extract it. But we need a distraction so the lemons don't follow us.

Adra, Valloth wants you using your brainbox to come up with some kinda barrier in case we prod the rock and make it erupt. Speak to her if you need help coming up with something. She's happy to help.

I'll speak to the puppet of Gondegal. The basher that was apparently throwing fire at the Factions here last cycle. I'm sure I can convince him to make a distraction.

Option 2:
Some bad blood volcano up in the Crags. Ful powerful. Has a mirror of it in the plane of shadow. Is stopping a major river from icing over.
Far away, harder to get to, harder to extract, but won't cause issues closer to home.

Option 3:
Shadow plane version of option 2. Too much effort. Too much danger.

We're going with option 1 unless we find out the heart's too weak.
No sharing this dark. No negotiations. No meetings. It ain't gonna hurt anyone, so no feeling bad.

Valloth's price is tracking down her ancestor in the whistles so we can deliver the mail and let her have the heart. Don't know the plane, layer or tag, but we'll work that out. I said no if it's Carceri.

So for now, Adra, make a rig for a barrier. Talk to Valloth if you need help.
I gotta talk to a gnome.

I spoke to the gnome. He's happy to create a distraction.
In exchange he wants help dealing with the gangs in the "Free District".

Trolley-whomping some cross-traders and thugs taking advantage of the quippers and poor bods sounds like an easy ride for the payoff we want.
Flip, I figure this is a ride that you'd want in on.

Volcano Heart acquired.

We blew the volcano up in the process. Got a Fire Drake heart too. Might be worth a few bars to the next berk trying some fire dazzles.

Flooding affected the saltheap & stonelands.
Ash and lava affected the stormhorns & frozen river.

Nela, the spore druid, is probably foamed up. Careful of her.
I'm pinning the blame on the berk with the bow "sodding up Gills ritual".

Bodies that helped us were Bells, Valloth, the bow berk, some addled banite chit, and I think one more, but I forgot.
