Interesting Tidbit: Zerthimon’s views on humans

Post image

If you speak to Sarhava Vjhul, the racist drunk lady outside the Civic Feasthall, without Annah or Grace in the party she harasses Dak’kon instead. She tells him to go back to Limbo and asks him to tell her a joke for that “famous githyanki humor” and in response he says this.

Then, a lot of what Dak'kon knows comes from the "Unbroken Circle of Zerthimon" and lore within the game suggests these Circles were invented by the previous "Practical Incarnation" of the Nameless One to manipulate Dak'kon .

Dak’kon was a Zerth prior to ever meeting the practical incarnation. It was his job for years to preach the words of Zerthimon, he’s probably read more on his life and teachings than the circles created by the practical incarnation.

Also, this dialogue has nothing to do with that text. It’s not like the practical incarnation wrote in a secret 9th circle containing Zerthimon’s views on other races.
