She was introduced as Gikka Winbelburrough at the next inn. Given good warm food and some relaxing tea. And a very confusing conversation.

"You don't remember me," said Wraithvine the Eternal. Ze was digging in hir pockets for something. It was a pair of smoked-glass lenses[1] made to fit a Kobold's draconic face. The craftsmanship was exquisite. Made to last more than one lifetime.

Gikka wanted to lunge forwards and claim it as hers. She was further shocked when Wraithvine put them in her paw and said, "I'm sure they'll fit."

They find a necromancer willing to make a new body for the poor idiot. But the person will lose all their magic and have to learn everything back from square one. Maybe learn better manners and respect as well.

Can we have a story about Wraithvine having to teach this doofus to be a "mini me" of him as it were? That is, since he was begging to follow hir around and basically learn to be just like them?

Kobolds, like Goblins, are remarkably prolific. Considering that their usual destiny is to end as a brief and crunchy squeak, this is entirely understandable. If they didn't breed like flies, there would be none of the species left. Whilst the Goblins have a complicated labyrinth for their departed souls, the Kobolds

"Oh I'm going to hate this" muttered Wraithvine as they entered the town to drop off Slippery Sam. Amatu put the bell back in a pack that Wraithvine enchanted so only Amatu could open it, and, to avoid thieves, a curse on the pack so only those that had no intention on stealing it from Amatu could touch it without getting their hands proverbially "slapped".

Poor Wraithvine was going to endure a lot of discomfort while they researched why the bell did

As they hug Wraithvine, they whisper into the ear, softly, carefully, "I've likely been around almost as long as you have, though my immortality was accidental, a spell gone haywire.
