I randomly overheard the Shulacks whispering to one another.

And I very clearly heard the name Dorkin being mentioned.

You have to find the Shulack in Taloc's Hollow.

You end the conversation.

Who... who are you?

Please... spare me!

I've done nothing wrong. I'm just hiding here.

Don't chase me away.

You ask why he's here.

It... it just turned out that way. T... to be honest, I've been banished.

(Holds his head as if in pain.) It's all my fault. I did something unforgivable.

My son Seikin... I heard he was chased away too. All because of me... All my fault... I really hope he hasn't gone hungry.

You say you will check on Seikin.

Really? (Gulps.) Thank you. You're different from the other Daevas I've met before.

By way of thanks, I'll tell you what I observed.

A long time ago, I came across this Research Journal when I was looking for something to eat.

Although it's very old, it still looks new. It can't be any old book.

It's meaningless to a Shulack like me, but it might be useful to a Daeva.

You end the conversation.

Have you met Dorkin, Daeva?

You hand over the Taloc Research Diary.

These are records made by a Daeva who investigated Taloc a long time ago.

Here, take them. Continue his investigations.

You keep listening.

You have a good heart. Saving even the smallest life is the same as saving a world, Daeva.

The Shulack will surely never forget your kindness.

Thank you for what you did, Daeva.

Completion:

Lothas told you that a down-and-out Shulack was roaming around Taloc and asked you to listen to his story.

You found the Shulack Dorkin and questioned him. He said he had committed a crime and was now in hiding as he was being pursued.

Dorkin thanked the Daeva of Life and you for caring for him and his family and told you about the Research Journal in Taloc's Hollow.

You found the Research Journal and took the Taloc Research Diary it contained to Lothas.
