- Well, dancer with death, have you danced your last dance? Tell me who you are and why you attacked me, or I swear by all the powers of Ashan, I'll send you on a date with your dance partner!
The elf was silent for the first few seconds, and I thought he was mute, and I was afraid that I would really have to send him to meet his dance partner in fulfillment of my oath, but then...
-Why not? Why did you attack?
-I was ordered to...
-Who?
-It doesn't matter... I was told that you are a minion of demons, that you came to us for a reason...
But something in the words of the Dancer didn't seem right... It was as if he was reciting a pre-prepared speech or someone was controlling his mind... Exactly!! How didn't I think of that before! But that could only be done by a very skilled mage... and there were none nearby... But maybe this is related to the missing censer? The priest told you that the censer has unusual properties that not many people know about... And if an evil sorcerer takes possession of it, it could be very, very dangerous.
That's why the priest said that only an outsider could have stolen the censer... he just didn't know! The mage was controlling the Dancer's mind - and he did all the dirty work...
But now the task has become more complicated - it is necessary to find the mage. You have a clue - the Dancer was wearing a strange amulet around his neck - a hydra enclosed in a hexagon.
So, take action!
