I have a dream that one day, men will be punched in the face not for the color of their skin, but for the awful content of their character.

"...Yes," Ianvasah says at last, "Yes I will."

<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

"It is customary to kneel at this point," Seira whispers to Ianvasah.

She summons a pair of chakram that draw all light to them like the darkest, deepest night; at times, a flash of purple can be seen within.

"I charge you and your chosen companion to take a chakram each and annoit them with sacred oils on the moon through securing a Lunatic's aid. A week later, the two of you are to each wield one chakram, and must work together to vanquish a Sharran powerful enough to challenge you on Ash. Capture him or deliver his soul to Shar to complete the quest."

Offering the chakrams, Seira warns, "For the duration of the quest, the two of you may only use these vile weapons in combat, and possessing them will weigh upon your souls, for until they are purified you will not be able to rest. Your dreams will be plagued by nightmares."

Spoiler: ShowHide
Original quest guideline:

To purify Dead Moons, the two chakrams must be placed on the living moon, anointed with holy oils and left there one week. Thereafter, they must be used in a quest to slay a creature of evil with both the fire subtype and at least 30 hit dice.

Ianvasah kneels. "Then I will," she says, "Are there any limitations on whom can come with me?"

"A deity will be frowned upon," Seira says dryly, before she gives a more serious answer. "The two of you must share a strong bond, one of sacrifice for each other but also the capacity for compassion and support. There is a time and place for tough love, but it is not here. Blind trust, too, would be invaluable."

A nod, "I know who I will ask," Ianvasah says, "I'll see that it's done."

"I will be at your side as you face your fears," Seira tells her quietly. "You will not be alone, so take comfort in that and prevail."

A flare of her divine power seals the matter, as she places her hope in Ianvasah!

Like that the quest is given, the bond made.

Anything else to add here while you're chatting with her, or would you like to move on?

She can pray to me for guidance later if she needs it, we can move to the Xera and Zariel show.

As everyone begins to leave, however, they find Vayley at the doorway bearing wrapped gifts, all smiles!

Emily pauses, calling back, "Mom?"

Elle smiles a little bit in the meantime.

"What's in the boxes?" Emily asks right back.

Seira picks one up ftom Vayley and unwraps it, revealing a snowman made of delicious frosting. Those with an arcane bent can see magic from within it, however. That magic comes from a scroll of Seira's newest spell, shielded from the confection via its wrapping.

So I know how to adjudicate it as needed, what's the plan here?

I'm using my 4,500gp limit to alter reality a present! A crafting feat cuts prices in half, so I can create scrolls costing up to 9,000gp ex nihilo.

The snowman isn't magical, it's just a delicious sweet to take home.

The scroll wrapping is similar to what is used to keep scrolls dry in water, nothing fancy.

Finally, the actual spell is one fitting these conditions. Ideally Uncursing, but it wasn't written up yet, and may end up going over the gp cap. Unless somwone is going to cast from the scrolls right now, I'd prefer to settle it later ooc.
