Dialogue

Black Spirit Dialogue

Were you really like that before?
By the look on your face, it seems like you remember.
Illezra...
How are you related to her?
I'm a little bit jealous, but that's okay. Hehe!
However, you must make a decision.
Either go back to your old ways
or keep your current ones.
You're not planning to get rid of me, are you?
You can try, but it's not possible. Hehe.
I'll respect your decision, so go ahead and decide.
However, it's a done deal once you decide. There is no going back!

Black Spirit Dialogue (Alt)

Either go back to your old combat style
or keep your current one.

Black Spirit Completion

There shouldn't be any regret as long as
you're convinced that you made the right choice.
I don't like Illezra, but I respect
whatever decision you make!
Complete the quest and open the Skill Window - Succession tab
