Synopsis:
After fighting the Bhaal Cultists, the Netherbrain has a chat with the player via a tadpoled Flaming Fist Runner in case Captain Edenosa died to the cultists. The Netherbrain explains why it got one of its tadpoled minions to intervene and that it is trying to break through the netherstones restrictions. The conversation is clearly causing a lot of strain to both the Netherbrain and to the Flaming Fist.
How to trigger:
If Captain Edenosa is dead after the end of the Bhaal cultists ambush in the Lower City Park, a Flaming Fist Runner spawns off screen and runs towards the players. When it spots one, it starts this dialog.
