🧍 Malukah only★ XP 124

The monkey is surprised to see Malukah's snake, and they begin to converse. You can't quite tell if they're on good or bad terms; it resembles a sibling squabble. When their discussion ends, the monkey lowers his head, and the entrance gradually opens. The snake informs you that her brother apologizes and won't attempt to take your blood again. She explains that he has always been the most mischievous in the family but isn't an evil loa. As you leave, the monkey even bestows a blessing upon you. You get: XP 124 Malukah gets: Clever

Before you leave, the monkey blesses his friend Bernard and wishes you all good luck on your quest! You get: XP 124 Bernard gets: Clever

[Velarion] "A blade? Hah… I need no weapon to spill blood."

🧍 Velarion only★ XP 124

Velarion raises his hand, crimson energy spiraling as he draws a measure of his own blood into the air. The ghostly monkey watches, then bursts into manic laughter. "So… you are no stranger to the gift of exsanguination. We are alike, you and I!" Velarion frowns at the monkey, while the rest of the party erupts in laughter. Still chuckling, the monkey bestows a blessing upon him before the entrance gradually begins to open. You get: XP 124 Velarion gets: Clever
