Proof

Here, take the glass marble and bring it to Sakgoth. It is proof of your deeds and signals you as his equal. Be ever vigilant and remember what you learned. I am excited to witness your further growth!

Just what happened up there? It smells like burned flesh in there.

The master is an enigmatic man, and I will most likely never fully understand the ways of his mind. Luckily that's not what we are here for, right?

This pearl you brought, truly something else. Every student of the master's receives a personal gift from him - and technically me - as proof of their accomplishments. Mine is the stinger of a scorpid I've slain in the Thousand Needles. And for you... what do you think of a pendant?
