Dialogue[]
| “ | Many of your horses <are wracked with/shriek in> pain <and have stopped eating/whenever they are given food>, <even our carefully hoarded grain/as if they wish to die/have become spavined and lame>. <Except for a few who have begun eating other horses/They no longer try to graze, as if they wish to die>. <Dresta> says that fragments of Chaos have lodged in their bones, and sometimes shrink or <stretch/expand> them. | ” |

Consequences[]
If you opt to seek the aid of spirits, taxing them may result in spirits successfully coaxing out the Chaos from the horses, the people praising Dresta for this. Mood may improve, but a blessing from Beren and Redelda may disappear.
If you successfully invoke Redalda, the horse goddess, the horses may indeed be cured of whatever ails them and Mood will be increased. This is easier if a Redalda worshipper, like Reda, is on the ring.
