Sylvia let out a quiet chuckle and she commented on the aphorism, "Earth has that saying too," before letting Pylia continue with her thoughts. Sylvia had to admit, she hadn't even thought of his words that way. She listened to Pylia, and when she asked about the dagger, Sylvia nodded and answered "Yeah. I saw it," She looked to Buddy and read his answer to Pylia regarding what he remembered in the cave. She nodded and commented "It'll be really difficult to look into anything Erendal did right now, considering what happened today. But still, we should definitely keep that in mind," 

She smiled at Pylia, "I'm glad I asked. I honestly hadn't thought of his words that way,”

She continued, "I could be wrong, but I thought over his words, and I had a feeling that there was no way that those ideas could just come from narcissism and his upbringing. A magic item could certainly be part of it, but I don't think it would be enough to make someone believe they could bring prosperity and would become a legend. I think someone put those ideas into his head in order to enlist his help, and that person gave him that dagger,"

She then finished, "So, to sum it all up, I think a cultist or cult might have something to do with Erendal's actions, thoughts, and behavior," She then asked Pylia, Shortfang, and Buddy, "What do you think? Too far-fetched?"
