You have found us ancestors. We thank you greatly, %PCName.

Your tribe has proven their good will. Thank you, outlander, I will become an ancestor of the Obainat.

Your Ashlander friends deemed me unworthy when I lived, now they want me to become their ancestor? Is this a mock? No, I will not agree, unless they can prove their good will to me.

Ulibabi has spoken with me. I will become an ancestor of the Obainat.

I will become an ancestor of the Obainat if they can prove their resolve to me. I died in the hands of the Hlaalu, and I want revenge. I ask nothing from you, since you are an outlander, but let someone from the camp come and meet me. Swear to me that they will help me revenge against the Hlaalu, and I shall be their ancestor.

Yes, I will become an ancestor of the Obainat. Tell Padus that I will not fail him again.

Padus told you about me? So young Padus is with the Obainat now, and Ulibabi, and Zasser. I died in regret, thinking that I failed my tribe; but maybe there is still hope for the lost Damanu yet, through its rebirth as the Obainat. Yes, I will become an ancestor of the Obainat. It gives me great comfort knowing that there are still things I can do for my tribesmen.

Why would I become an ancestor of the Obainat? I was the ashkhan of a lost tribe. I have my own tribesmen whom I should protect and counsel. Though they are now scattered, I will not abandon them, even in death.

Yes, I will gladly become an ancestor of the Obainat.

To become an ancestor of the Obainat? Why not! It is my honor to provide the tribe with whatever help they need. Yes, I will gladly adopt the Obainat and offer them my counsel.

I have scouted out the nearby tombs and caves on the wise woman's request. There are four possible spots: The cave Malumed is toward the northeast of the camp, at the foot of the hill; Maatumassu is a cave southwest of Savrethi Distillery, up the hill; Dunusi is located just outside Menaan, near the silt strider port; and there is Ravith Ancestral Tomb, on a small isle northeast of here, close to Mundrethi Plantation by the bank of the Thirr River.

I await your good news.

So be it, I guess this will be enough. But your work is not over yet, %PCName. It is now time to choose an ashkhan of the Obainat.

Very well. This is so much more than I've hoped for. You've done our tribe a great service, %PCName, but your work is not over yet. It is now time to choose an ashkhan of the Obainat.

Thank you for convincing the spirits to become our ancestors, outlander. Are these all the spirits you can find?

Have you talked to Padus? He can tell you where to find the spirits. Summon them with the spell I taught you and convince them to adopt our tribe. Also ask for their opinions on choosing an ashkhan of the Obainat.

Our scout, Padus Addinibi, knows places where ancient mer were laid to rest. Go talk to him for directions. I will teach you a spell for summoning the spirits. It would be enough if you can find us two ancestors, but the more the better. Ask them also how they would choose an ashkhan. Return to me when you find us ancestors.

Once, there was no Obainat. Instead, there were many other tribes, proud and ancient. Mine was among them. But we became lesser and lesser every year. Eventually, so few were left that we had to band and join the Obainat with the other lost tribes. Now we live a gloomy life, with no ancestors to call our own. You must find us spirits of the past and convince them to adopt us and guide us, so we can once more be proud.

Talk to the wise woman on these matters of spirits.
