a sunken stone edifice decorated with animal bones, [Map Room 18], Room# 8214518, Lich# L26874, go stone edifice

Wild Instinct, Entry

[Wild Instinct, Entry - 8212727]
With much of the exterior structure partially buried in the ground, the cracked stone walls of this edifice are covered in a mixture of clinging dampness and dirt that stain them a murky brown. Guttering candles, their flames a livid green, are scattered around a cracked stone altar and the armor stand next to it, the eerie light glinting off the items arrayed on top of them. The air is stuffy and still, the accumulated dirt and mold creating a musty smell that clings to everything. You also see a chipped stone sign and a dark opening.
Obvious exits: out

In the Common language, it reads:
The armor in this room contains 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.
When you are hit in combat, the spirit within will lash out defensively with Animalistic Instinct flares that will disorient and knock down your attacker, the spirit's bestial power increasing as its trust in you grows.
Flare changes can be found at the High End Scrip Shop.
Visit the shrine through the opening to unlock their further potential.
In the shop next door, you will find weapons and shields to pair with these items.

On the armor stand you see: a fitted vultite chain shirt accented with feather designs, some silk-lined vultite chain body armor with delicate links, a polished vultite breastplate embossed with curled ram horns, a long chain haubergeon covered in overlapping vultite scales, and a suit of vultite full plate dyed in stygian black tones.

Wild Instinct, Shrine

[Wild Instinct, Shrine - 8212728]
Little light filters into this tiny alcove, making the only illumination the various green-flamed candles set into several nooks along the uneven walls. There is not much room for anything besides a flat 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 moist earth, mixed with a faint aroma of incense, permeates the damp air. You also see a cracked stone sign.
Obvious exits: out

In the Common language, it reads:
Unlock the further potential of the spirit within your armor.
* Animalistic Instinct flares
Reacting defensively to being hit, the spirit within sends out a sonic attack to disorient and knockdown your attacker.
Using the provided papers raises the power of this attack, as well as how long attackers can remain disoriented.
* Revenge flares
Unlock a chance to unleash Animalistic Instinct flares on a successful evade.
NOTE: You must be in forward or greater stance, as well as be an active participant in combat to properly enrage the spirit to retaliate.
* Bestial Barrier
When unlocked, the spirit can shroud you with a barrier whenever Animalistic Instinct flares hit defensively.  This increases your physical defenses for 30 seconds or until the next creature attacks you.  The more powerful your flares, the better this barrier will become.
* Untamed Vitality
Draw upon the power of your spirit to increase the regeneration of your mana, health, and/or stamina for 15 minutes every hour.  Unlock only one or go for all three, but choose which benefits you the most by choosing the appropriate slips.
* Feral Whirlwind
Once unlocked, gain access to unleash Animalistic Instinct flares offensively once an hour against 3-5 creatures in the room with you, knocking them down and disorienting them.
* Fluff Actions and Spirit Change
Unlock the tricks your spirit can do, or the tricks you can do with your armor, with the provided scrolls.
As well, you can change the type of animal in your armor with the provided note (TURN to find the one you like), which will morph the spirit within.

On the flat stone shrine you see: a small flare paper, a medium flare paper, a large flare paper, a spirit change note, a slim fluff scroll, a wide fluff scroll, a health Untamed Vitality slip, a mana Untamed Vitality slip, a stamina Untamed Vitality slip, a tattered Revenge certificate, a sturdy Bestial Barrier certificate, and a twisted Feral Whirlwind certificate.
