Do I or Don't I? Malefactor....

[Caira Ayryn]

If you are trying to play it safe, don't bring it.

But if you do bring it you will have a significant advantage. Not to mention you can always steal it back. You could even win a better artifact because you ended up bringing it.

I like the idea of bringing it because you might have more fun in the competition, as well as add a surprise variable to DA. It's not as fun to hold back in a fight but there will be those who try and steal it from you. It's a great challenge and its a nice incentive to not loose the competition and also have Retane himself grow stronger.
