She will want to speak to you after collecting two of the souls, like
in Gorecci Street,
but nothing particularly hinges on the conversation itself.
She'll want to harvest souls from the dead husks at #2 in the Engwithan
Digsite, but she won't be able to.
You don't have to collect every last one of the souls mentioned in the
list. You can make progress by collecting enough of them. Xoti
will want to speak to you again once she's gathered enough souls in her
Lantern. Carrying around so many souls is causing her to have more
intense nightmares, and she wants your advice on what to do about it.
You have two basic dialogue choices. One is to tell her to "relight the
lanterns of Hel", which is implicitly the good choice. The other is to
"Embrace the Harvest, which is implicitly the evil choice.
Go to the Statue of Gaun at
#2. Xoti will now perform a
ritual.
She will have another conversation with you immediately after performing
the ritual. Note that asking her what would happen if she stopped
collecting souls will tend to lead to the "light" ending for the
question, even if you've previously encouraged her to embrace the
darkness. A good idea is often to end the conversation abruptly if you
want to preserve your previous choice.
Speak to her again afterwards on your own initiative. Her nightmares
are getting worse, and she's more desperate than ever to release the
spirits.
Encouraging her to release the souls will tend to lead to the "light"
ending, while encourage her to kill someone or to hold onto the souls
will tend to lead to the "dark" ending.
Finishing the quest now means finding a way for her to unload the souls.
One option is for her to find a Luminous Adra Pillar where she can
release the spirits. They include:
Another option is to go to Flaune Elette at #3 on the Rooftop
of the Spire of the Soul Seers. Flaune can take the souls from
Xoti for purposes of her animancy experiments.
However you do it, it will complete the quest and you'll gain a unique
item called the Luminous Adra
Mantle. It can be used to enchant Xoti's
shield, Xoti's Lantern.
The enchantment that becomes available depends on the dialogue choice
you made when Xoti first spoke
to you in earnest about her waking nightmares.
If you had told her to "relight the lanterns of Hel", she can only use
the Luminous Adra Mantle and
3,000cp to give Xoti's
Lantern the Light of the Dawnstar enchantment. That enchantment
increases Spell Resistance for allies within a 5m' Radius.
If you had told her to "Embrance the Harvest", she can only use the Luminous Adra Mantle and
3,000cp to give Xoti's
Lantern the Threshing Aura enchantment. The enchantment increases
damage inflicted by allies within a 5m' Radius.
