Freed from the Hive

The pod splits opens some when you touch it, revealing a night elven male who is surprisingly still alive. He seems to be in good health, though deeply stunned. As you help him down from the pod, he stirs to life.

"Thank Elune - you've saved me, friend! I... I'm Raschal, and I awoke paralyzed inside this pod after these bugs overwhelmed me. Were you sent by the Stronghold?"

It would seem that you've found the missing courier!

You have something to report, <name>?

Welcome home, <name>. Raschal checked in just a little while ago and told me what happened.

I... no, the entire Stronghold can't even begin to thank you for your great deed; Raschal would have been dead without your timely aid, and your assistance came to us without even so much as the whisper of a mercenary's fee. You bear the mark of a true hero. Know that you will always have a friend in Ginro Hearthkindle.
