The Vase of Katzu Part 7

The Vase of Katzu Part 7
The first door on the right is locked, but once opened leads into a small study.  There is large, mahogany desk, bookshelves, beautiful tapestries, candle holders and fine rugs.  Strangely, they are all in fine shape, as is a young woman who wakes up at their approach from where she sits in the chair behind the desk.  She speaks at your entrance.

"You can not break the curse that father brought upon this family and killed the lovely city of Katzu without killing us all.  He always wanted too much.  If you don't, you will become our source of power or become part of the curse."  She pauses and sighs sadly.  "Or both.  I don't know which is worse.  I've lived too long like this.  I want it all to end."

For the GM, Sarah Katzu appears to be in her mid thirties, though clearly she is centuries old.  She is the youngest of five children born by Kasey Katzu and her husband Theodore Katzu.  They are the ones who brought about the curse to save their oldest son.  It only affected their oldest son, Sam, at first, but eventually the whole family was brought into the curse as the dark power grew.  Sarah will answer any question the party asks honestly, for she truly does want the curse to end and the natives to be able to reclaim their island without fear.
