Cantor Zanya Dialogue in Salt and Sacrifice

 Talking to her for the first time:

The others may have sought to harm you, but I am not your enemy.
I am Cantor Zanya, a Keeper of the Choir Hall.
You weren't meant to see this place... a second time.
But I cannot undo what is done. I must trust that you will keep secret what you have seen here.

Talking to her again:

Your persistence is admirable, but will yield nothing.

Second Time? (If the player has not imbibed the Divine Sight Elixir):

Did I say that? Why would something like that come out of my mouth?
Funny...

Choir Hall (If the player has not imbibed the Divine Sight Elixir):

The Choir Hall is a sacred place of learning.
The Choir is a collection of Altarstone Kingdom's most brilliant scholars, of which I am no exception.
The knowledge contained in these subterranean depths is too great for your comprehension, I am afraid.

Second Time? (If the player has imbibed the Divine Sight Elixir):

Yes. All Marked Inquisitors begin their journey here. But none remember it.
You surely remember drinking the Magebane, and speaking the words.
But a transformation took place here, before it was blotted from your memory.
You are a powerful asset to Altarstone Kingdom.
The curse of Vor Yuile runs deep in your veins, transforming your very essence into a horrible, profane thing, like a thousand blasphemies become flesh.
Mages may possess immortality through a spark of divinity, but you have the power to eat gods.

Choir Hall (If the player has imbibed the Divine Sight Elixir)

The Choir Hall is where we first began study of the blasphemous creatures we found in the Elder Copse.
To the outside world, the Elder Copse is an unknown, unknowable place whose secrets have remained undeterred for centuries.
But we of The Choir have long been aware of the place.
It is where we found the Curse of Vor Yuile. It is how we created the Marked Inquisition.
Arch Hierophant Anomolis has gifted you this secret. He must trust you greatly.

Leaving the conversation (Happens only the first time she's been talked to):

Before you depart, a gift: a blade suited for one who has spilled the blood of traitors, scholars and priests.
Player receives the Heretic's Bane weapon.
Do not linger here long.

Talking to her again.

Your persistence is admirable, but will yield nothing.

Leaving the conversation (subsequent times)

Do not linger here long.
