Dialogue[edit]

When you first arrive at the camp, he'll be writhing on his cot, semi-delusional:

"Talia … Talia? Is that you? I-I'm … so dizzy …."

Morwha's Curse[edit]

After helping his daughter, Talia at-Marimah, to gather ingredients for a hopefull cure for Marimah, approach his tent and you'll overhear:

Talia at-Marimah "Please, Father! There must be some way!"
Marimah "You must accept this, Talia. My time has come. Go prepare the potion. I must speak with our guest."
Talia at-Marimah "I do not like this, but I will do as you say, Father."

Speak to him after his daughter leaves and he'll say:

"You are welcome to our camp.
We are usually generous hosts, but … under the circumstances, I hope you understand."
Of course I understand.
"You have seen, of course … the tribe is weak, and I am soon to return to the sand.
Another must fulfill the sacred duty of the Ash'abah … that other is you. It has been foreseen."
Me? I have to fulfill the duty of the Ash'abah?
"Yes. There can be no doubt. The Withered Hand … we have never faced such a threat, but it is our duty to stop them.
You … you must become one of us, you must become an Ash'abah. Then you must stop the Withered Hand."
How do I become an Ash'abah?
"There is a ritual. My daughter … I told her the ingredients were for an antidote, but she knows now, they are for your initiation.
There is not much time. You must decide … are you willing to join us, to become an Ash'abah?"
Yes. I will join the tribe. / That sounds reasonable. I'll join.
"Thank you. You move a great weight off of the heart of a dying man.
The future of our tribe … our honor … depends on you fulfilling our duty and fighting … the Withered Hand."
I must know more before I can commit.
"I understand your hesitation, but … whether you join us or not, defeating the Withered Hand is your destiny.
By becoming Ash'abah … you are simply fullfilling our duty by doing what you are already destined to do. Nothing further is expected."

If you exit out of the conversation before completing the quest, he will say:

"Please…there is not much time.
First, you must decide…are you willing to join us, to become…an Ash'abah?"
Yes. I will join the tribe. (Leads to quest completion dialogue)

The Initiation[edit]

Continue to speak to him and he'll say:

"My daughter is … not happy right now. She is as stubborn as her mother was, but … death will not be stayed.
Be assured though, initiate … after you complete the trial, she will help you fight the Hand if you wish."
I'm ready to face the trial.
"That is good. I believe she has finished … mixing the potion for your initiation. Speak to her when you are ready to begin the trial.
May Tu'whacca guide your path, initiate … always."
Thank you. I will speak with Talia.

Speak to him again and he'll only repeat:

"I believe Talia has finished … mixing the potion for your initiation. Speak to her when you are ready to begin the trial.
May Tu'whacca guide your path, initiate … always."

When you return from the initiation, Marimah will have passed away from the poison, still tended by the healers.
