Can we have the full explanations for all the quests? I wonder what self-discovery is for.

Arc Quest: Save Al and Riltia: Reunite with your old friends!
Context Quest: Self-discovery: Figure out who you really are and what your connection to this place is.
Context Quest: Build Proxxy's Trust: Proxxy says she'll help you if you can prove you're not going to betray her trust.
Sidequest: Remove D:4 Banners: Oric will pay you 200 Pence to remove some gaudy banners from Dungeon Level 4.
Arc Quest: Essence and Binding: Polydectes wants you to bring him the Binding and Essence of an Illborn's old Soul Star.

Anyway, assuming we're done here we should head back to 5,2 and grab that Bag o' Slot (give it to Cherish and have her store the Pence in it to make room,) then use that SP fountain to restore everyone to full everything.
Wonder what happens when the last quest slot fills up.

Double-check: "You say you have one of these on every level, somewhere?"

No, we heal first, in case it's ANOTHER TRAP.

+1 to fully healing first.

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

Polydectes hands you a piece of paper.
So, uh... Was the fact that his example Illborn looks like Slog a coincidence?

Probably not.

Either it's the first/simplest doodle that came to freeform's mind, or Slog is one of the few Awesome-essence'd Illborn in existence.

That or Polydectes is far creepier than he first appears.

What does having an awesome (that's just a way to call "holly") essence have to do with it being wanted? Polydectes never asked for an awesome essence

And yet...well...it's awesome. And probably rare. I wouldn't be surprised if Poly wanted to see what happens.

Hey, the sky is blue.
I just mentioned that to you, which is proof that you didn't know that beforehand!
Seriously, though, if awesome essences are that...awesome, Polydectes might well keep track of Slog and other Awesome-Essence'd Illborn (or at least know of them).

Not with any significant degree of specificness, and certainly not specifically enough for him to then draw a picture of him and his essence.

Without seeing if his pupils are looking in the same direction, it's hard to tell if it's a slime or a Slog.

Also, we don't know if the First Slot is the essence slot or the Illborn slot- he might get bonuses to being upgraded, not being used as an upgrade.

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

It's not Slog or a regular slime. It's clearly Polydectes' head seen from above! :P

Anyways, yes, we should get that Awesome Essence from where it was left floating in a tank. While we're up there, we might also want to see about purchasing some essences from the market area.

Of course, that all predicates on us being able to get back to DL2, which probably means we need to hunt down a Save/Warp point.

If the Illborn Exchange is in Storage, might I suggest we take a look at it? It may very well be that CoolCrab is still registered in it, and that means we may be able to summon him, or as the name 'Illborn Exchange' suggests, use it to freely switch him and Goombess.



Bonus:

I did this a while back when I suggested combining Slog with a Searchbot:
