| Naming Notes | Soot sprites hang around houses that are unoccupied, leaving a mess wherever they go. They don't like to be seen and run away as fast as they can. They'll judge your character to see if you're worthy of the house. If you are worthy, they'll swiftly depart leaving you the house. It took a while for us to find phage, perhaps the phage was judging our character, waiting to see if we are worthy. |
