Heart of Moon
Inside the dungeon of the Loures Castle is a white wizard named Marlin. He has lost his love, Bella and wants you to deliver messages to her. This quest is one of deep tragedy and drama.. oh, and dia naomh aite (holy protection that lasts 2 hours) and anywhere from 100k to 1.5 million experience. You may need a Beothaich Deum so have a priest make you one if you don't have one already.

Hello. What can I do for you?

[He casts his eyes down and sighs]
The tragedy of my imprisonment is that I miss Bella. Her coils of hair caught my heart years ago. It drives my dreadful dreams.

Bella is my love, from whom am I separated. My life depends on a ribbon of parchment between us. I sneak out letters to her. I have no more. But I have a message. Will you tell her something?

Bella? She's in Piet I assume. She is the barkeep of the tavern there. I haven't heard from her in over a season. Jean might know where to find her.

Thank you. The message is:

Dear Bella, The Chamber blackens. It's maze twists deeper into my mind. Each turn reveals darker creatures that I hadn't realized dwelt within. Save me from this sgriotic realm. - Your Love, Marlin.

Take it to her now.

Go back to the enterance of the loures castle. This time take the stairwell to the right. Follow to the end of the hall and keep going towards the back of the castle. From the throneroom with the king go left until you can go left no more. There is another white wizard there: Jean. Speak to him.
Hello. What can I do for you?

The Cycle of Becoming is the flow of one god into another, nominally beginning with Deoch and ending with Sgrios, although it is completely cyclical.

The new year is the transformation. It is the conjunction, where two gods are indistinguishable.

Almost all cultures celebrate it. Each recognizes the divine moment: the conjunction.

For example, the conjunction of Deoch's intoxication with Glioca's compassion is the birth of love. It is almost like a child. It seems so different from its parents, but it resembles their combined parts.

The transformation of Deoch's hot intoxication into Glioca's moonlit compassion reminds me of sweet Bella who used to visit me.

Bella walks, in deep consideration, at dusk and dawn in the garden.

She told me the silliest of things.

[He smiles]
She told me that on a twilight walk in the garden she met a faerie.

She waited until dawn or dusk just north of the Lover's Glade. She patiently walked through the woods until she came a clearing of the betony flower, where she saw a red silk scarf. She waited.

It was a faerie. She held conversation with the faerie, who revealed that between midnight and dawn she danced the there. Bella watched her dance several nights.

The transformation of Deoch's hot intoxication into Glioca's moonlit compassion reminds me of sweet Bella who used to visit me.

[He looks pensive but then edges closer and whispers]
I would burn down the world for her. I would do anything for her.

[He looks at the painting of faerie creatures]
I would release Marlin if Bella would bewed me. Gladly.

The transformation of Deoch's hot intoxication into Glioca's moonlit compassion reminds me of sweet Bella who used to visit me.
Leave the Loures Castle. Head over to the Eastern Woodlands. On the left path is the Enchanted garden. The far right corner of the enchanted garden is the lover's glade. Instead of entering the lover's glade, just head up near the edge a bit. There is a small open patch of betony flowers (white flowers). Walk along them until you get a pop-up with a faerie. There is a chance that you -may- need a Beothaich Deum. If you do, it will be consumed. Priests can make these if you don't have any.
You notice what appears to part of a silk red scarf.

[Note: You may be asked to set down a beothaich deum here. If so, click the option to set it down.]
*peeks* Are all the mundanes away?

[The faerie twirls]
She danced with me.

[She stops]
Dark, beating wings cluched her and carried her off!
Return to the Loures Castle Dungeon and speak to Marlin again.
Hello. What can I do for you?

[He looks intently into your eyes]
Did you give Bella the letter?

[He listens and gasps]
My dream is true. A black-hearted creature has stolen my love. Please help me find her.

In the same dream that begain with the black-winged creature swooping Bella away.

There is one more thing. Will you give her an additional message?

[He speaks slowly]
Dear Bella, Though age claims my bones, though this cell claims my life, though poisonous thoughts claim my sanity, my heart is eternally with you. - Love, Marlin.

[He nods softly]
Okay.. now a bit of navigation for you. The room before the jail cell is a weaponsmith. The room before that is vacant. The room to the left of that is a bedroom. Walk along the bed on the left and you will have Mor Cradh cast on you. When you find that spot, press [F5] repeatedly until you get the following pop-up.
A large pulse moves beneath the stone.
This will transport you into the Dark Maze. The dark maze has four different flavors depending on what level you are. Level 1-20 is Chamber I. Level 21-40 is Chamber II. Level 41-70 is Chamber III. Level 71-99 is Chamber IV. These chambers are a large never-ending square aptly named Chamber East, West, North, and South. For this test, I was in Chamber II. You need to walk to this spot in Chamber II - East to progress:
The other chambers' exits are in different areas but in the type of location. Walk along those outer edges of the enterance of each room until you find the stone. Walk across as many as fast as you can and constantly click "Feel the Stone" until you are transported to the next room.

Your partner will begin the quest by being the Heart of Fire. Have him walk into the center of the circle on the floor. He will enter your name in as the moon. As he does this, you will get a few pop-ups. When you have a decision between two, click any of the two I list here. Whatever path you choose the end result will be the same.
[You slip through on a pulse of soft light.]
There is an ancient Aosdic circle with inscriptions of two rituals. Which rite will you perform?

The Flame will begin the ceremony by stepping into the circle.

Whom shall you perform the rite with? One of you will begin as the Flame and the other will be the Moon.
I will perform the rite with [Input Partner's Name]
another Aisling.

Will you follow as the Moon in the Conjunction of the Flame and the Moon with [Partner's Name]?

[You begin the Rite of the Heart as the MOON]

You will now gain 100k-1.5 million experience and your legend mark. Congratulations! You're done with the quest. To get your Dia Naomh Aite at anytime that Naomh Aite is not casted on you, go to the Louers Dungeon and speak with Marlin:
Hello. What can I do for you?

[He smiles]
I had another dream of Bella. She was close to me, smiling. You told her. Even though you never saw her directly, you met her. I know I'll meet her again soon, too. You've given me vision, Aisling.
