The Loa's Passage

event Sculpted Cave · Events (all zones)

Sculpted Cave Node You arrive at a cave with impressive carvings on it's entrance depicting several Loa. It appears that the carvings were once painted, but most of the color has faded over time. It is now impossible to determine whether the painted sections depicted the feats of the engraved Loas or those of lesser Loas. A humid breeze carrying a blend of cinnamon and bitterness emanates from the cave. The cave is the larges you have seen in the area and seems to extend deeper than initially anticipated. Do you dare enter this cave? ***This is a transition to the Sea Floor map***

"This is an important cave for the Sahti. To become an adult, a Sahti must come to this cave and choose a Loa to be their main one. In this cave are carved all the Loas that participated in the creation of these islands. It is a pity that some of the Loas represented here are barely followed by the younger Sahti, and thus their power is fading, along with their history. That's what the Sahti believe, but I think the Loa were made to protect something, though I don't know what." In silence, while Sigrun thinks about it, you reach a huge underwater cavern. Receive XP 152. Transition to Cave Entrance node.

He tells you that some of these Loa no longer have many followers, which has caused their power to wane.
