A once-stable automa is showing signs of unusual dysfunction, attacking Enlightened along the road outside of Pilgrim's Grace. It is essential that the roads remain safe for our pilgrims. Rafiq has designated the elimination of this threat to be of the highest priority.

As a warlock I was struggling with this due to his heal. Your mention of fear was something I had never thought of using before. Thank you :-)
