Annalisa Hatches a Plan

You say to Priestess Annalisa Swornlove, "Shouldn't we speak with your brother about this?"
Priestess Annalisa Swornlove says to you, "No! Uh...I don't think we should get their hopes up, Cyleana. Let's just wait and see if it works. If it doesn't so, be it. But if it does, they'll be overjoyed!"
You say to Priestess Annalisa Swornlove, "Alright. Let's do this."
Priestess Annalisa Swornlove says to you, "Excellent! We will have to craft an Empyrean Hammer to break the magical encasement. We'll need physical bits of Love's planal power and a hammer of opposing power to bind it with."
You say to Priestess Annalisa Swornlove, "I'll get what we need to craft the hammer."

You say to Priestess Annalisa Swornlove, "Shouldn't you be the one to wield it?"
