Zavien may have only brought a few sprigs of his budding lavender, but the space around the shrine will fill with the gentle scent of it as Vi arrives, the small buds blooming and stretching towards the sunshine overhead. Clearly the location isn't ideal - not for the dragoon and not for the deity, but nevertheless Vi appears, radiating a warm light that filters beautifully through the stained glass offering he has brought.
"It is never easy, to make a sacrifice for what is good and what is right," he says, his voice low and rich as the soil that sits between them. And if Zavien looks closely, that very soil will appear to shift ever so slightly through their conversation. "But nothing worth doing is ever easy. You will emerge from this stronger than you expected, and with a renewed appreciation for all that you have."
Something emerges from the soil, sprouting dark and creeping slowly upwards, its stem rising up towards Zavien. Golden thorns push out and glimmer in the light, and a crimson bud forms, unfurls and blooms into a rose before him. Power radiates from the rose, begging the dragoon to reach out and pluck it from the earth.
Zavien has completed his quest and has received the following!
Vi's Roses (rare): A beautiful crimson flower with thorns of deep gold, it is rumoured that these roses are coloured with Vi's lifeblood. When planted, they have the ability to cleanse the area around them.
