Haunted roots

SUBJECT: Potential artifact in the Dales
PARTICIPANTS: Kostos, Pietro, Solas
DATE FILED: Now, late IC due to recent events and procrastination
STATUS: Complete
SUMMARY: Three mages wandered around an Orlesian village asking about a curse and getting doors slammed in the faces before zeroing in on a haunted stump and rehoming an angry spirit, like you do.

REPORT:
Solace 15-18, Roussillon, Orlais.

Not an artifact. Possessed tree roots.

Rumors of stillbirths and illness are likely true, but unless the Inquisition intends to stoop to weaponizing demons to cause miscarriages, which would be fucking abhorrent, further investigation into the connection seems irrelevant. If you disagree I would strongly recommend sending Orlesian humans to handle it.

The spirit was returned to the Fade to prevent someone from having too many feelings about it. Future rumors of people being thrashed to death in the woods by an angry tree will also be likely true.

You can have the stump.

NOTES & LINKS: Log. And he did indeed bring back the parts of the stump that could be dug up (though a lot of the roots were left behind) with all of the dirt still attached.
