Thousands of souls cry out, unable to pass to the underworld and suspended in a state of agony and despair. You must find the source of this anathema, claim whatever artifact holds these spirits captive and offer them upon the altar so I may free them from their cage.	10
Proving your worth	World	You fed the flame, but a flame must have purpose and so must you. The flame can help shape, mould and temper metals. Use the flame and offer me proof of your craft, if it is worthy then I shall teach you how to refine your art.	1
Sanguis Celeste	World	Warrior! Your offerings strengthen my memories and I have need of you. Long ago I fought with Vulcan, I do not remember why but my blood was shed. Some fell to mortal lands. A crystal formed from this is in a dungeon nearby. Find it, return, offer it upon the altar. Do this before another takes it. Be quick and be victorious, warrior!	1
Significant Pursuit	World	Money is valuable. Knowledge is power. You'll need both if you ever want to be safe but you won't get that by waiting. Search, seek, discover, if you keep your eyes open you'll see what you need. What you can't find, money might buy for you.	1

The Malfomed Satyr Horn	World	The horn that you have found is most peculiar, its malformation is unique. Offer it upon the altar and I am certain I may use it to discover where it has come from. If we are lucky, this may reveal the way to Pyzifax and allow us to learn why the satyrs have taken up arms against Rome.	1
The Moonstring	World	You've proven yourself a true hunter, you act rather than wait. I have a hunt worthy of you. In a dungeon nearby, the Moonstring is hidden. Part of an artefact crafted by Vulcan's hands. Seek it out, offer it upon this altar. Do this and I will grant you knowledge of the land.	1
The Phoenix of Arabia	NPC	My hunt for the Phoenix of Arabia has led me to you and this volcano. It has come to lay its egg which means it shall stay in this place until the egg hatches to protect it, dying in the process so the next Phoenix may live. Another chance like this will not come for five hundred years! Its ashes would be perfect for study, evidence that may help us understand how it renews itself with every cycle of life and death. Do me this service, in turn I shall serve you faithfully.	—
The Scent of Memory	World	While many thought only of their own survival, it was you that saved me from oblivion. I owe you a debt, darling, but I would impose on your generous nature once more. I have lost much, but one memory plays in my mind again and again that I desire greatly. A scent, a promise of renewal, a perfume that is at the heart of who I am. Seek out the amor redivivus and offer it in my name and you will have more than just my favor.	1
The Workbench	Story	Craft a Workbench Place the workbench on the ground to start constructing your town. To place objects in the world you can either place them in your hotbar, or to begin placing in the world. When you're happy with the location, press to confirm and place the object.	1

Virgil's Poem	World	As my memories return, so do my powers. I sense that an ancient creature long buried has awoken, hidden beneath the desert sands. It is familiar yet I cannot place it, yet even in my diminished state I feel a searing hostility. Find it and offer a trophy upon my altar so that we may learn the truth of this, a tooth would be enough. Follow the road to the desert and look to the altars there for clues, they no longer offer devotion to the gods.	13
Weapons and tools	Story	Use the sticks and the flint shards to craft tools and weapons. The player crafting menu can be found in the inventory view. Equip items with or by dragging and dropping the item into the correct equipment slot.	4
Worshipping the Gods	World	You brought me back, but I am a single voice in a pantheon that has fallen silent. If they lost their powers and memories as I did, then perhaps they may be restored as I was. Make offerings upon the altar and, if I am right, you may receive signs that show signs of their favour. With enough faith and devotion, they may return to us.	—
