Rumors have it that Kayok the Slipperyquick has unlocked the secret to trap souls in gemstones.

The eyes of [[shissatissk|Shissatissk's]] statue have drawn your attention.  You find that the stones contain the soul of a [[leviathan|Leviathan]] that had hunted [[kaiika|Kaiika]], causing them to glow.

>//A soul preserved in stone! This is exactly the magic you wish to learn. When you press the priestess for more information, she urges caution: “This is dangerous spellcraft,” she tells you. “You should go to my hometown, Yulora, in the Frozen Expanse. You will find Kayok the Slipperyquick there. He can tell you more.”// - [[kaiika|Kaiika]] priestess - Servants of Azema (GS-ADV2)

The priestess presents you help along your journey.
  * You may commune with the [[leviathan|Leviathan]].
  * You may request a blessing from the priestess.

In both cases, you feel strengthened and ready to travel to the [[frozen_expanse|Frozen Expanse]].
==== The Frozen Expanse (GS-ADV6) ====

Using a compass and your spyglass, you manage to find the home of Kayok the Slipperyquick.  Making your way to his home, he invites you in for fish soup and some tea.

>//“What is it you crave?” he demands. “Beauty, power, or knowledge?”// - Kayok the Slipperyquick - The Frozen Expanse (GS-ADV6)

  * You ask for beauty.
  * You demand power. 
  * You request knowledge.

Kayok the Slipperyquick honors your request and you feel yourself beginning to transform.

A jeweler in your party is able to benefit even further from what Kayok the Slipperyquick has to offer.  He is aware of previous events and tests your abilities.  Upon collecting an orange cystral shard, he presents a difficult choice:

>//“Speak your name to the stone, and your soul will be bound to it forever,” says Kayok. “But, is that really what you want?”// - Kayok the Slipperyquick - The Frozen Expanse (GS-ADV6)

  * You speak your name to the stone and bond with it for eternity.
  * You choose to give up on your chance for eternal life.
