You say, 'Hail, Archaeologist Certus'

Archaeologist Certus says, 'Oh are you here to help me? Thank goodness, someone finally has come. I've been elbow deep in work for...well...forever it seems. I just can't seem to get ahead.'

You say, 'Well, what do you need help with?'

Archaeologist Certus says, 'I don't even know where to begin. I just can't...I mean...I...'

You say, 'Easy there. Do you need a drink of water?'

Archaeologist Certus says, 'Oh yes, that would be perfect.'

Give Archaeologist Certus:

• Water Flask

Archaeologist Certus says, 'Oh, that was just what I needed. Thank you, <Player Name>.'

You say, 'So what do you need help with?'

Archaeologist Certus says, 'I thought you'd never ask. We are currently working on a massive project - and I do mean massive - to research the home planes of the Gods of Dalaya. I have been tasked with the home planes of Shiritri and Sivyana. If you could bring me something from either one of their lesser minions, it would be a great start.'

You say, 'How do you recommend I go about doing this?'

Archaeologist Certus says, 'I suggest using something with a point. Or trade them in rare gemstones. The important part is that you get the relic. I don't have time for the messy details.'

You say, 'What do I do now?'

Archaeologist Certus says, 'I bet that Marium could use some assistance. Or if you are feeling particularly adventurous, you could speak with Kered. You should also hang onto that gift I gave you.
