A bunch of smoke enters the room through cracks in the ground, and Phlegna appears, fully formed.
"So, you need help with your little totem? Its Old Magic is all but spent. But I like cracked thing, broken things, things that no longer should work... but do. If you want to charge back your totem, you must perform... a sacrifice!"
"I'm not killing anyone, Phlegna.", you say and walk away.
"No, not like that!", she makes a tired face, turns to smoke and reappears in front of you, blocking your path out of the room.
"The mages will ask you to hunt an iron boar to substitute the broken totem. All that I'm asking is that you give.... a little something... to one of my Creatures... you may find it worth your while!"
"What creatures?"
"Oh, you'll meet them... in the forest. They will be Following you... To make sure you'll be okay, of course!"
