Lizard's Treasure

The **Lizard's Treasure** event starts when The Curse of Lust event ends.

## Steps

 16. Visit the Ruins to participate in the celebration (requires: three days after conversation, between 6:00 and 16:00, day at least 92.)

## Plot

### Encounter Nauxus

Before everything starts, you will have to meet Nauxus, a lizardman who got lost in the Misty Abyss. For more information about Nauxus, see Between Worlds event.

### Bareshade, meet the Lizards

One the Between Worlds event ha ended, start by talking to Roushk about going to Bareshade. The topic *"Bareshade"* that sends the lizardfolk to Bareshade will only appear once the player completes *Bernard's Sickness*, *Full Moon*, the time is in the hour range of 6:00 to 14:00, and spoke to Roushk about the *"Cleansing"* after freeing him from the curse of lust. Him, Othra and Rhot will travel with you to town. While traveling, you encounter Lizardfolk still under the effects of the curse. If you listen to Roushk and let Rhot handle the enemies, Rhot will like you more. On the track, you can either join Othra and Roushk or Rhot. If you join the chief and the priestess, Roushk will like you more. If you join Rhot, he will like you more.

Upon your arrival in Bareshade, Rose rushes towards your guests and introduces herself. Othra goes with her, and you take Roushk to Bernard. Rhot decides to guard the shop's entrance. You can stay inside, earning you a like from Roushk, or you can wait outside with Rhot. Rhot tells you about the Curse, he says warriors are affected, but since Othra is afraid of contaminating the water, they can't be cured. You can continue talking with him about that, earning you a like from Rhot, or help him take care of his needs behind the shop, also earning you a like.

Next stop: Blake's. He will craft weapons for the tribe. When you leave Blake's place, Othra comes back with a package from Rose. The Lizards are quite happy with their visit. You can take them back or let them leave. Nothing special happens either way.

### Dreams

Back in the Ruins, attend a sparring between Grushk and Rhot after 6:00. The tension between those two is palpable... Rhot wins and comes see you. If you praise him, he will like you more. If you say you were just passing by, he will like you less.

After the fight, rest in your chambers in the Ruins (Visit the shrine, Rest) at night. Nothing but blood and death in the Ruins. Everyone you knew here died. Some strange voice wants you to thank him for the death of everyone, as you can now ''focus on important tasks''... Try as you might, you will have to thank him. He is stronger than you.

It was nothing but a dream... For now. Speak with Roushk about what you saw. He's starting to be more relaxed around you, so he caresses your cheek to comfort you, then takes back his hand, embarrassed. If you take his hand, his behaviour will change from now on (Editor's note: At least I think this is the trigger). You will have other opportunities to share some intimate moments later. If you shrug it off, everything will go back to the way it was.

Go back home and sleep (at night). You will have another dream in which Korg (or Rhot if you didn't meet Korg yet) attacks you. You understand that some unseen power controls him. In exchange for your safety and the safery of the ones you love, the stranger wants you to steal the Lizard's gem and give it to him.

### The Gems

It's time to do something about this. You can either steal the gems or inform Roushk about the situation. While thinking about what to do, go see the young Witch and the old Witch and ask them how to protect your mind from the Nameless. The young Witch will use her magic to protect you. The old Witch will ask you for a favor. Decline and you won't get her protection. If the player chooses to speak to Roushk, then the combined likes from Roushk, Othra, Rhot, and Grushk have to be at least 125 for a diplomatic option to be available.

WIP

#### Warn Roushk

In order to tell Roushk, you first have to gain the lizards' trust. When you have a combined like of 125 or more with Roushk, Othra and Rhot, the option will be available. To get more likes, watch sparring with Rhot and Grushk then praise Rhot, meditate with Othra or spar with Roushk. If you go back to the temple the next day, Roushk and Othra will give you the 2 gems they had.

The dream you will have that night while sleeping in your house will make you see the Nameless for the first time. Toss him a gem. The next morning, go back to Roushk. You can return the second gem. Seems like the Nameless didn't know the Lizards had two of them after all. Or keep it: Roushk doesn't know the Nameless took only one...

##### Return the gem

Upon returning the gem, the Lizards will throw a feast in your honor. Go back to the ruins between 6:00 and 16:00, at least three days after the conversation. Upon arriving, you meet Grushk who is tasked with protecting the tribe while everyone else feasts. Upon joining Othra and Roushk in the seat of honor, your brave fame increases in the Ruins. You can then talk with the others:

* Chat with Rhot: if you say he has an important role in the tribe, he will like you more. If you say his job can be done by anyone, he will like you less.
* Spend some time with the acolytes: WIP in game.
* Join the group of warriors: chat with them a bit.
* Talk with Xeroth: if you say his potion helped you, he will like you more.
* Check on what Grushk is doing: you find him masturbating. If you show yourself, then reassure him, he will like you more. If you offer your help, he will be offended and will like you less, since he doesn't really want to be aroused in the first place.

After chatting with people in the tribe, join back with Othra. As a sign of her gratitude and as a sign of trust, she will give you the Lizard's gem that you returned after your encounter with the Nameless. She will then ask you about your feelings for Roushk:

* Say you admire him: she will then ask you if you find him attractive. If you say yes, you will gain Roushk's first **heart**. The event is now over.
* Say you support both of them: she will ask you if you find them attractive.
	+ Yes, both: gain her first **heart**. Later, gain Roushk's first **heart**, then finishes the event.
	+ Only Roushk: later, gain Roushk's first **heart** then finishes the event.
	+ Only her: gain her first **heart** then finishes the event.
	+ No: finishes the event.
* Say you prefer her: finishes the event.
* Avoid the question: finishes the event.
