Trial of the SpiritEdit

As you approach, you'll hear him praying to Kyne inside his tent:

"Kyne, bless these drunkards. Don't let them crack their skulls."

Speak with him to begin his trial. You will need to drink poisoned mead as part of a race:

"Ho there, friend! Welcome to my little shrine to Kyne.
I can sense a force, a spirit, radiating from you. You're here to take the Trial, right?"
Yes. What's involved?
"So glad you asked! In a word: poison. Well, poisoned mead. Well, over-fermented mead.
Here, just take this brew. It's the key to the door you're about to open."
Poisonous mead is a key. To a door?
"Yes! To your inner spirit. The brew enables your unleashed spirit to see fires, gifts from Kyne herself!
Follow the path of fire. But mind the scum weed; it'll slow you down."
If you say so, Widulf.

You can ask further questions about the trial which you will see fires while you are racing:

"Drink up, now. Outside the tent, if you don't mind. Don't want a mess if … Well, just drink it outside.
And remember: run really fast!"
This all seems a bit strange. Can I ask you a few questions about this Trial? / This all seems a bit strange. Ask you a few questions about this Trial?
"Oh, of course! If someone asked me to drink some kind of poisoned mead, I'd have questions too!"
Why do I have to drink the mead?
"I'd have thought that was obvious. Without the heart-racing, vision-blurring effect of the mead, you wouldn't be able to see the fires.
You can't run the Trial if you can't see the fires!"
What are these spirit fires you mentioned?
"Well, I'll tell you. I've heard some of the scholars say they're naturally occurring. Some kind of vapor rises up from the ground and the lake. Something like that?
Me, I think they're gifts from Kyne herself!"
Why is a priest of Kyne proctoring this Trial?
"Why wouldn't I? I love going out to these fests, and Vofknir always puts out a good spread. Nothing in Kyne's teaching prohibits strong drink!"
Fast? Why did you mention I have to run the path quickly? / You mentioned running fast. Why?
"Oh, no reason. Look, you seem very healthy. If you take too long I'm sure the mead will just wear off. And you'll have to come back and start again.
Pretty sure. Almost definitely sure. Yeah."

Speaking to him after you drink the mead:

"Wha? What are you doing talking to me? Get going!"

If you didn't make time, he'll merely repeat his instructions from before.

If you did make time, he'll meet you by the end of the finish line to congratulate you:

"You did it! Congratulations!"
Thank you, I think.
"Oh, aye. You did great. Just great!
I'll let Vofknir know about your luminous inner spirit. Good luck in the rest of your journey!"

After the quest:

"Truly Kyne guided your steps. An achievement to be proud of!"
