The Call of the Ocean Lord

Othmir in the Sinking Sands You say , “Hail, Stissa”

Stissa says to you , “Greetings, friend. I am pleased that you sounded the beacon for us so that we might finally complete our long journey. Finally, the mighty Lodizal can rest.”

You say to Stissa , “Lodizal? Is that who this creature is?”

Stissa says to you , “It is. Lodizal was chosen by Prexus following the Age of Turmoil and infused with a piece of his power. He was to wait until such a time when he was called on by Prexus again, and thus, has waited in the waters of Iceclad for the call of the Ocean Lord ever since.”

You say to Stissa , “Who are you?”

Stissa says to you , “We are the othmir. Our Speaker, Nipik, was the one to receive the visions of Lodizal, to guide us to where he slept. It was our duty to watch over him, to ensure he is fed and protected, under the direction of the Speaker – the one who interprets the will of Lodizal himself.”

You say to Stissa , “How did you get here?”

Stissa says to you , “Lodzial has slept for as long as we can remember. When he awoke, it was up to us to help guide him, although we knew not where to go. Your clarion call beckoned him to his destination.”

You say to Stissa , “Here? What is he here for, then?”

Stissa says to you , “He is here for the destined ones. He is here to bring them to his home, to help them find their way to Velious.”

You say to Stissa , “Wait, he knows the way to Velious? He can take us there?”

Stissa says to you , “He can, and he will. He merely needs time now to rest. Once he is able, we will take the destined ones to the shores of his home.”

You say to Stissa , “Is there anything I can do to help him?”

Stissa says to you , “No. For now, leave him to rest. Soon though, he will be ready, and will begin the long journey home.”

You say to Stissa , “Very well. Then I wish him a swift recovery. Farewell to you.”
