There are strange...energies in the Deathsong Forest.

I walked out there...to learn more...and I found a strange...substance.

It tasted...like fertilizer...but like no fertilizer I've ever...tasted before.

Player: "Interesting...."

We should ask...Trajanus for advice. He is the wisest...perhaps he knows...what this substance is.

Player: Accept.

I believe this may be what...is creating the Rotrons...but I could not say for sure.

Player: "Trajanus will know, I hope."

Yes...this substance is...strange. Strange and...dangerous.

Player: "Could it be creating the Rotrons?"

That is...my suspicion. But what...or who...is causing this?

Trou...is knowledgeable in things that I...am not.

Perhaps he...would have an idea.

Player: "I'll confer with him."

Blessings of Aion upon you.

Player: "What do you make of this substance?"

If it is artificial, it could be the work of the Lepharist heretics.

A Sentinel named Aiokina passed through here. She said she was being assigned to a post watching the Lepharists in the jungle.

If they're up to something, she should be told.

Player: "I'll tell her."

Hail. Have you business here?

Player: "The Lepharists are up to something."

Well, of course they're up to something. That's plain to anyone with a lick of sense.

This is the first I've heard about them being involved with the Rotrons, though. Thanks for the tip--I'll look into it.
