The Path of the Executioner was one that came with great strength but at the cost of low Luck. Cassarae must have been particularly favored because the Quest gave her the ability to offset that poor Luck out of the gate.
Unfortunately, that treasure was stolen away, taken by Lauren, who now had the number one spot on the Merit Leaderboard all to herself. And according to Cassarae, her rewards for the Common Quest Leg were actually far less than what she received for the Fragmented part of the Quest.
Sylas hadn't really considered this aspect of things before, but what if the use of the necklace wasn't to give Cassarae great Luck, but to instead place her on a level playing field with everyone else?
Although everyone was facing problems of their own, Cassarae's seemed to be outsized.
