Hallucination Caves Altar

It was a long walk from their corner of Auster to these caves in the opposite end of Auster, but he had a strong desire to get away from Elysium for a few days at least and with the slip up he had with Ikigai he felt like he owed her something as an apology. He wasn't sure what that something was just yet, but he was certainly on the look out for it. In the meantime, he took his mate for a bit of a trip, packing a few gifts and supplies so that they could go see this mysterious alter that the others had been whispering about. Apparently there were several from what he had heard, but he didn't exactly want to take Ikigai to the one surrounded by pools of blood or the one that seemed all about war and violence. That didn't really seem like something his poised princess would want to see. Instead they made a trek down to Auster, finding this statue that looked mystical and lavish.
The haze in the air gave everything an odd feeling and when he looked up toward the ceiling it was as if they had suddenly stepped into a cloudless, star-filled night. He made a soft hum at Ikigai's side, keeping her close as they approached the statue together. The feeling he got from this place made him nervous and it made him edge closer to Ikigai, keeping her close protectively just on the off chance that the tension he felt from the statue's attendants turned into something more violent.
He placed a basket of items on the base of the statue that he had gathered from the pack before they left that contained a snow leopard pelt that lined the basket, a white candle that was was swirled with violet inks, a bottle of sweet wine, and several geodes that had been broken open to reveal glittering, sparking amethysts within. The basket itself was made out of woven branches, but between the branches was strands of purple ribbon woven between them. He took out a flint and steel to light the candle, the soft glow of the flame making the amethysts shine even more with purple, glittering light. With his offering presented to the statue and its attendants, he took a small step back, waiting for Ikigai to give her gift before he walked away with her in tow.
Using this date night kit as his statue offering
NPC:
The large man gifts a kit of this and that. What good does a statue have with a date? The man did not even stay for said date, instead walking away with his lover in tow. The kit would have been better used with his wife, but it is not unpleasant overall.
As you leave, you find an item beneath your paw. Convenient.
You have received:
Small Unfleshed Thought
Staff: note when claimed
