a lopsided stone hut with a ragged animal hide covering the door, [Map Room #18], Lich# 26874, go stone hut

Untamed Spirit

[Untamed Spirit -]
Dampness clings to the cracked stone walls of this lopsided hut, making the enclosed space perpetually moist and musty. Guttering candles, their flames a sullen blue, are scattered around a central stone altar, the various items arrayed on top of it subtly reflecting the eerie light. Hammered crookedly into one wall are some rusted iron hooks, the wares on them hanging precariously above a rickety shield rack. Wind constantly seeps into the area, sending the ragged animal hide over the door fluttering every so often. You also see a dark opening.
Obvious exits: out

chipped stone sign

The weapons and shields in this room contain the trapped spirit of an animal.
Be warned - they are wild and untamed, often lashing out in anger at those they do not know.
Tame them and partner with them, however, to soothe the wild spirit within.
Attack with them and their bestial power will be unleashed on your enemies in the form of Animalistic Fury flares, the strength of them increasing as the spirit's trust in you grows.
Visit the shrine through the opening to unlock their further potential.

On the rickety shield rack you see: a wide orase aegis banded with thick strips of iron, a smooth rolaren pavis rippled in bands of black and gold, a round vultite buckler etched with a trio of thin slashes and a sturdy faewood parma edged in a complex knotwork design.

Untamed Spirit, Shrine

[Untamed Spirit, Shrine -]
Little light filters into this tiny alcove, making the only illumination the various blue-flamed candles set into various nooks along the uneven walls. There is not much room for anything besides a squat stone shrine, which stretches across the entire space. Abandoned offerings of feathers and animal bones litter the floor, creating a narrow pathway of treacherous footing. The overwhelming scent of mold, mixed with a faint aroma of incense, permeates the damp air.
Obvious exits: out
