Player! Is that an Siel's Supreme Orb?

I admit that items of that sort are not my specialty, but even a blind Shugo would recognize that just from its aura of power.

Where did you get it?

Player: "It's a long story...."

Fascinating! May I take a look at it?

It's wonderful! Just look at the...oh, no.... That's too bad. The orb seems to have been seriously damaged at some point in the past. Did you drop it? See this crack here?

If you could restore this, you'd have yourself a truly outstanding orb. Would you be interested in doing that?

Player: Accept.

I don't know the first thing about fixing orbs, Player, but I know who might.

In Rhonnam Refugee Village there is a...person named Tataka. He's a Kobold who fancies himself a cook, but I happen to know he's also a talented blacksmith.

If anyone can fix this orb, it'll be him.

Player: "Thanks for the tip."

Daeva? Here? Uh-oh. Tataka swear it was not him. Tataka does not know where old woman went. Tataka has strong alibi...was here cooking stew all day. All day!

Oh, you not here about that? Never mind then, not important. What you need then? Tataka will help if he can.

Player: "It's about this Orb...."

That an Siel's Supreme Orb! Tataka know of this. Siel's Spear Legion, ancestors of Reian Tribe, used this. This ancient!

It also look ancient. You find at a rummage sale? Look at scratches and cracks. Pffff. Shame.

Tataka could help restore its powers, though. Maybe. Let him think.
