Loic

Loic is one of the druids at the Emerald Grove during Act One. He is civil to visitors, but wary of guests who overstay their welcome.

Please leave. Our hospitality has limits - and they were crossed long ago.

Involvement

Act One

Loic passes his time in the Inner Sanctum, often arguing with Marcoryl about violence as a justification for peace. Their idle banter varies according to the outcomes of  Investigate Kagha,  Raid the Grove, and  Save Arabella.

If persuading Kagha to turn against the shadow druids, Loic becomes an ally in the subsequent fight (and afterwards, moves to the servants quarter). However, if failing to persuade Kagha to redeem herself, Loic becomes hostile and fights against the party alongside the Shadow Druids and Kagha.

Idle banter

If Kagha spares Arabella:
Marcoryl: Ridiculous. We just let her run off!

• Loic: She's a child.
  • Marcoryl: A devil child. One who tried to steal from us.
    • Loic: Yet she failed - that's what matters.

Loic: This will all be over, the ritual is almost finished.

• Marcoryl: What if they try to steal from us? Again?
  • Loic: We've shown them once - we take grove law seriously.
    • Marcoryl: By letting that child escape without consequence? We might as well have lain down on the ground and let them trample over us.

Loic: I don't want blood on my hands.

• Marcoryl: We have the right to defend our home.
  • Loic: So that's what you want? To kill innocents?
    • Marcoryl: I don't want to kill anyone. But I won't let the grove be harmed - not again.

Notes

• Despite being nominally a druid, Loic is in all gameplay measures a fighter. As the only druid of the Emerald Grove with the fighter class, it is likely that this is an accidental oversight dating all the way back to Early Access; before the addition of druid as a class, the druids of the grove were either fighters or wizards.
