>listen, if you've been on this job months then a few hours or even days won't make much of a difference. so could you explain why your god needs the harp and what it is?
> Explain why the God of Lanterns needs the harp, and why they sent someone to--and this is probably the rude way to say it but, uh--steal it.

Fin: Why would your deity need this harp though? I can't just hand it to you without knowing at least that.
Trick: Oh fine, alright, I guess it doesn't sound like a good deal if you don't even know anything about Wick. Alright, so Wick, God of Lanterns really likes lanterns as you might imagine, and his main deal is that the flames from his lanterns grant protection to travelers on the road. I don't know if you've stepped foot outside of this place yet, but its rough out there. Monsters, man eating deities, Orators ready to swoop in and tell you about the history of a tree stump, people are in all sorts of danger if they can't handle a blade.
Now, he used to have a modest operation out of an atelier, providing lanterns to travelers and merchants, but as he gained more followers he saw that just his lanterns weren't enough and needed to stop bad stuff from happening before it got too powerful.
This is why I'm here! To grab that harp because it's too powerful to leave around here. If you haven't caught on yet, you're a squatter on another deity's church. She put the essence of one of her Songs in that harp before she passed. That probably sounds useful to an up-and-comer like yourself but um... no offense... from my perspective you'd be super easy to beat up and steal that harp from.
But! That's why you might want to get on his good side. He knows some good humans and good deities and will offer some protection on your little operation here.
>see if she would be willing to answer some questions before you decide, we are new to this whole "Existence" thing and it would be good to get a basic sense of the world, and she works for a god so perhaps she might know a bit about how gods work too... the important question im getting at is, is Trick our mom?
Trick: Uuuuuuh, I guess I'm the right person to ask that since I did say I went to Alchemy college. Like, I don't want to start a theological discussion here but people think that Gods are born from the emotions of humans, and others thing Gods are the awoken creators come to reassess their creations. Either way maybe me being here caused you to wake up, but don't be weird about it.
>DISCERN Lantern
True to what Trick said, the lantern she's holding definitely has a lot of Song energy inside of it. The energy is radiant and fills a lot of the room wherever the light touches actually, but you're not sure how it works if it's really a protective barrier as she says. You're standing in its glow but don't feel it doing anything in particular.
Trick: Are you happy now? Do we have a deal?
