Questor Offer

They tell me that you are quite loyal to the temple. I need you to perform a vital task for us. [a god] has become angry with us. You need not concern yourself with why. Our only hope is to hold a rite of atonement. We need [ingredient] for the ceremony. My sources tell me that some can be found in [the dungeon]. Will you bring it to us?
