Iona Riverborn
Quest Offering Iona says, "I will propose that he give a weekly report here at the council. During that time, he will be able to make request to us on behalf of Tawar Galan, and he will be given time to defend the porposal from our scrutiny." "In return, I would like for him to do something for me. There is a diplomat from Tanvu named Hido Kani Daylily. I don't know why he is here, but I think it is for the good of our people. He has a reputation for causing trouble. Tell Allegran to kick him out." Warden Allegran Warden Allegran looks at you eagerly and asks, "Well? How did it go?" You say, "Not quite as good as you had hoped." He looks dejected. "I should have known they would refuse me..." "They had concerns about the number of people already on the council," you say. "And that I wasn't competent," he says. "They... doubted your experience," you say, "but they also felt that you should focus on Tawar Galan." "Zephiria Wolveskin, in particular, believes that Tawar Galan is very important," you say. "Of course she would," says Allegran dryly. "But as my sister says, she is not truly loyal to our people." "She thinks more about the outside world than of the Glade!" he says, shaking his head. You shrug and say, "Someone must, I would think." Before he can protest, you continue, "Your sister had a proposal for you though." "Oh?" he asks, perking up. "What is it?" "You would be given a weekly opportunity to speak before the council on behalf of Tawar Galan," you say, "and you would be given the opportunity to defend any proposal you make from their doubts." "Hmm," he says, "that sounds like it could be beneficial..." "Iona implied that if you were to prove yourself, it might help carry you further," you say. "Excellent!" Allegran says. "I will agree to that, of course." "Iona wants you to do something though," you say. "Find out why Hido Kani Daylily is here, and make him leave. She does not trust his motives." "Oh," he says. "Well, I am very busy, and Hido Kani doesn't seem to like me very much..." He looks thoughtful. "But you seem to be a good talker! Could you determine his motives? Do you think that would work?" "Well," you say, "the ability to delegate is a sign of good leadership skills. So, yes, I think it would work for Iona if I was to extract his reasons for being here." "Then please do," he says. "As a final favor to me." Hido Kani Daylily You say, "Hido Kani Daylily, I hope you are enjoying your stay in Tawar Galan." He glances at you. You note a drawn expression on his face. "Oh, I am enjoying it fine," he says. "Is something wrong?" you ask. "Ah," he says, "it is not something to trouble yourself over..." You nod and say, "Can I ask why you are here?" He lets out a sigh and says, "As I said, my troubles are not your concern." "Perhaps I can offer advice," you say. "Very well," he says, "I am here looking for my brother-in-law." "Oh?" you ask. "Is that all?" He nods and says, "Yes, my brother-in-law is worth about that much concern." You say, "I don't mean to downplay the importance of finding him..." Hido Kani waves his hand dismissively and says, "Feel free to. He is not worth much to this world." "At least, to all of it but my sister," he says, "to her, he is the world. I must find him, for her sake. Though I would just as soon see her remarry a worthier man." Quest Completion Warden Allegran says, "He is just here trying to recover his brother-in-law?" He looks concerned. "Well, I wouldn't want to stop him from doing that..." "But if I don't, Iona and the other Wardens will never take me seriously." He takes a deep breath. "I suppose I must show mettle, and also prove that I can listen to the instructions of my elders." "I will be sure that he leaves."
