Quest Group: Chapter 4 - Mastering the Source
Starting Map: Reaper's Coast
To start this quest you should talk to Dorotya, The Decadent One in Effie's Emporium.
I spoke to someone named Dorotya in Effie's Emporium. She promised to grant me my deepest desire in return for a kiss. I must follow her to a quiet alcove in order to carry out the exchange. I should be on my guard...
Dorotya, The Decadent One
Reaper's Coast
Dorotya, The Decadent One (Spider)
Reaper's Coast
Dorotya will move to a new location - Dorotya, The Decadent One (Spider) and will be waiting for you there for some time. After some time she will return to her previous place. You have to come to her alone, leaving the rest of the team at the right distance.
Let her bite you if you want to receive Spider's Kiss talent - Spider's Kiss gives -2 to Constitution and +2 to Strenght.
Once we were alone, Dorotya revealed herself to be a werespider. She bit me and fed upon some of my blood. I lost some of my vitality, but gained something in return...
A drunk elf named Safa implied that she had some sort of liaison with a giant spider. Nothing but drunken ravings, surely...?
I have sailed from Reaper's Coast without learning more about the strange rumours that I heard in the Black Bull tavern.
