shift parasite

You begin to turn all of your thoughts in on themselves and feel your body
begin to shrink...

Your whole being seems to implode though your mind feels as though it is
getting ripped apart.

You momentarily pass out and when you come to you have changed your form into a
parasite.

Liam Sunmist says: If you 'ask' me I can tell you information, important to our
                   young priests.

There is a mighty trembling as an ancient force of nature is awakened.
You latch onto Lindle and partly embed yourself in the tissue.  Once settled
in, you begin releasing your eggs into Lindle's bloodstream.

City of Stormfront:  Taniwha Temple Sanctuary

   As soon as you push aside the curtain and enter the sanctuary, you are
almost overwhelmed with the beauty of it.  The floor is covered with a soft,
pink carpet.  The walls are bright yellow at the base and fade to deep red near
the ceiling.  The ceiling is the same deep red of the top of the wall.  The
real magnificence is in the windows.  Each are stained glass of pastel reds,
pinks, oranges, and yellows.  At night, faerie fires highlight the colors, but
during the day, the sun refracts through them to make a truly spectacular
scene.  The window on the east wall is the most amazing.  It totally consumes
the length and height of the wall.  The pink disc, the symbol of the
Morninglord, is in the center of it.  The same symbol is carved on the side of
the pews that line most of the floor.  On a raised section of the floor, stands
the pulpit.  Much of the time the faithful of the temple kneel around the edge
of this raised area which seems to serve as an altar.  Aside from the windows,
six orbs of "continual light" provide a briliant golden glow for the sanctuary.
Lastly, a sign on the west wall, next to the red curtain, through which you
entered, is a sign with important information on it.

There are two obvious exits : west and south.
Lindle and Liam Sunmist are here.

You finish infecting Lindle, and break away without her noticing.  The entire

shift gargoyle

You become very quiet and rigid, and your insides feel as though they are
becoming clogged and hard, almost like stone...

You have been noticed.
