You say, 'Hail, Jin Master Sergug'
Jin Master Sergug says 'Welcome back, young Jin. I hope your training is going well. Unfortunately, I have been unable to keep up to date on your progress, but should you need advanced training in any individual skills, for I am never too busy to enlighten one of my kin. You may have chosen a life of adventure, a life that will take you far from our home, but never forget your duty to your blood. The Guktan Army needs your growing powers. To remind you of this and school you in the way of our people, I will tell you something of [this place].'
You say, 'what about this place?'
Jin Master Sergug seems to be in deep contemplation of the matters at hand, but then sighs and speaks with Vierganku.
Jin Master Sergug says 'The fetid land we now live on of holds many evils. Trolls and other evil ilk still wander the Innothule Swamp, ready to feast on Froglok flesh. Their allies, the ogres, infest the Feerrott to the south, vying with the cursed Lizard men in a lasting contest of evil. Our lands stand distant from the other good races, separated by wastelands and deserts. Our army is our only defense. But that is enough. I am the teacher of young [froglok wizards].
You say, 'I am a froglok wizard'
Jin Master Sergug keeps a steady watch, eyes roving even as the conversation with Vierganku unfolds.
Jin Master Sergug says 'That is your path? Good. Then we must begin immediately for time is short. The arcane path ahead of you is fraught with dangers, many of them of your own making. I will guide you as I can, so[listen well].
You say, 'I will listen well'
Jin Master Sergug seemingly ignores Vierganku, while reveling in the miracle of Marr's, blessing then turns to listen.
Jin Master Sergug says 'This Arcane Crucible will allow you to combine [various components] to form a basic magical mesh. This mesh, when combined with the proper mold and worked in a forge, will allow you to create your own Armor of the Jin Initiate.
You say, 'what various components?'
Jin Master Sergug looks around at comrades of all walks of Guktan life, appearing content with his duty, takes a moment to speak to Vierganku.
Jin Master Sergug says 'These are not the usual components used in spells. Look instead in Innothule Swamp for your pieces. The many enemies and vermin that stalk that bog hold items which are only trash to others. But to you they will eventually become treasures. When you are ready to attempt making your armor, return and tell me what you [wish] to make and I will instruct you. I can teach you the recipes and give you the proper molds for the Armor of the Jin Initiate [Headband], [Vestment], [Armwraps], [Bracer], [Handwraps], [Leggings], and [Sandals].
You say, 'I wish to make a headband'
Jin Master Sergug engages in a conversation with Vierganku on how to craft the initiates headband, and what materials are needed.
Jin Master Sergug says 'Wise. Your mind is your greatest weapon and you must protect it. You'll need a Malleable Bleeder Skin, a Pristine Bleeder Skin and two Mushroom Spores. Combine these components in your crucible. When you have the proper basic mesh in hand, take it to a forge along with this mold to finish your Headband of the Jin Initiate
You say, 'I wish to make a vestment'
Jin Master Sergug engages in a conversation with Vierganku on how to craft the initiates robe, and what materials are needed.
Jin Master Sergug says 'The true mark of an initiate and a banner to the world of our growing might. To make it you'll need a Pristine Bull Alligator Hide, Bull Alligator Spines, a Giant Moccasin Eye and some Spiderling Silk. When you have the proper basic mesh in hand, take it to a forge along with this mold to finish your Vestment of the Jin Initiate. There is a [final lesson] you must learn.
You say, 'I wish to make a armwraps'
Jin Master Sergug engages in a conversation with Vierganku on how to craft the initiates sleeves, and what materials are needed.
Jin Master Sergug says 'Gird yourself completely. To craft these you'll need a Bleeder Wing, an Undead Froglok Talisman, some Moccasin Eggs and a Water Moccasin Tail. Combine these components in your crucible. When you have the proper basic mesh in hand, take it to a forge along with this mold to finish your Armwraps of the Jin Initiate.
You say, 'I wish to make a bracer'
Jin Master Sergug engages in a conversation with Vierganku on how to craft the initiates bracer, and what materials are needed.
Jin Master Sergug says 'This bracer will be a compliment to your other armor. You'll need a Blackened Fungus, Airborne Spores, a Bleeder Carapace and a Cracked Crab Spider Legs. Combine these components in your crucible. When you have the proper basic mesh in hand, take it to a forge along with this mold to finish your Bracer of the Jin Initiate.
NOTE Bracer Molds are NOT LORE. BRACER MESH may be, so beware.
You say, 'I wish to make a handwraps'
Jin Master Sergug engages in a conversation with Vierganku on how to craft the initiates gloves, and what materials are needed.

Combine these components in your crucible. When you have the proper basic mesh in hand, take it to a forge along with this mold to finish your Handwraps of the Jin Initiate.
You say, 'I wish to make a leggings'

Jin Master Sergug says 'What better to protect you from all that lurks beneath the swamp's murky waters? You'll need a Kobold Talon, a Ball of Pulpy Fungus, a Kobold Liver and a Giant Moccasin Fang. Combine these components in your crucible. When you have the proper basic mesh in hand, take it to a forge along with this mold to finish your Leggings of the Jin Initiate.
You say, 'I wish to make a sandals'

When you have the proper basic mesh in hand, take it to a forge along with this mold to finish your Sandals of the Jin Initiate.
You say, 'what final lesson?'
Jin Master Sergug seems to be in deep contemplation of the matters at hand, but then sighs and speaks with Vierganku.
Jin Master Sergug says 'It is said, with power must come mercy or only tyranny can result. Well there is one in need of mercy, the mercy of death. A former student of mine, Initiate Xabbis, tried his skills against the ghouls of the swamp. But he only became one himself. Now, he wanders near the broken tower, his soul a toy for the evil gods. I beg you, go free him. Go . . .[slay him].
You say, 'how shall I slay him?'
Jin Master Sergug appears to be daydreaming about past victories in war and peace, when suddenly interrupted by Vierganku's inquiry.
Jin Master Sergug says 'Yes. It is the only way now. But once he has fallen, look in his possessions and see if you can find a Tattered Codex. It was my last gift to him. Return it to me along with two Burly Kobold Ears and a Larvae Skin and I shall use my own crucible to repair it. You are certainly worthy of it.
