Burning Out

Find Solarys's siblings in the Smoldering Copse.

• Find Lyandris Thorngale
• Find Thaeldus Thorngale
• Find Kery'nael Thorngale
• Return to Solarys at the Central Encampment.

Please, I know how this looks, but we are on the same side!

My siblings and I intended to defect from the Flame together. However, none of them have escaped or met up with me since I left, and it's been days! I fear the worst.

Do you think I would be begging for aid, alone and unarmed, if I was not honest? Please, find them. They are all I have left.

You will receive:

Whatever you need from me, just find them, please!

<Solarys's face falls, clouding with grief at your explanation.>

Finite moments with my family are worth more than an eternity of regrets. Life itself is worth more than that, but my pleas fell on deaf ears.

Thank you for saving what little of my family is left.

Head to the Smoldering Copse and find the corpse of Lyandris Thorngale at :

• <This young druid lays still, cauterized lacerations covering her body.>

• <Drying tears cut through the soot staining her cheeks. She is curled around a journal protectively, even in death. Prying it from her fingers reveals a name in neat script on the inside cover: Lyandris Thorngale.>

Next to the body is Singed Leaflet which starts A Passed Torch. Continue to the cave at to find Slain Lunarwing Darters and Thaeldus Thorngale, meditating:

• Leave me be. I am in no mood for interruptions.

Continue to to find Kery'nael Thorngale surrounded by more Slain Lunarwing Darters and kneeling by a Singed Lunarwing Juvenile and a Innocent Lunarwing Hatchling.

Speak with him:

• Must we sacrifice innocent life to prolong our own? Is this truly druidism, or just madness?
• Solarys is alive? Thank goodness! She disappeared days ago.

• She told us that the Flame was just using us, that there was nothing for us with them. She wanted us to escape, but Thael argued we'd be abandoning our only chance at a new home.

• Would a new home require us to burn innocent creatures? Solarys was right. This is no family. This is a cult.

• Kery'nael runs away and the two fey hatchlings follow him.

Return back, Solayr and Kery'nael are now further in the encampment. Kery'nael has a new gossip:

• After all that has happened, I am admittedly struggling with what comes next. Where do we go from here? Who could possibly forgive the things we've done?

So does Solarys:

• Everything I've done, I've done to protect my family.
