Hermit

darkgoldenrod>Hermit tells you, "Stranger! Hear my words." Hermit tells you, "Long ago I stumbled upon an ancient Falatacot tomb. In my foolish quest for riches I defiled the tomb only to trigger an ancient curse that causes my flesh to melt. Behold!" green>Hermit removes her hood to reveal a face that is half melted away. darkgoldenrod>Hermit tells you, "This melting of my body will continue until I die in twisted agony. My peace lasts but a moment as those accursed life stones will bring me back to life whereupon the cycle will begin anew." Hermit tells you, "My search for a cure has brought me here. Will you not help me find solace? The Thrungus within this cave possess a unique ability to process rocks by digesting them. Take these and feed them to the Thrungus. Bring me back a sample of the processed stones." green>Hermit gives you Bag of Life Stone Chips.

You allow Baby Thrungus to examine your Bag of Life Stone Chips. The Baby Thrungus eats some of the Life Stone Chips and then spits them out. The Baby Thrungus starts to cry.
