Charm

You step forward and begin explaining that you're not entirely sure why you're here. You went out seeking treasure, maybe, or possibly glory? You're not so sure anymore.

"Yeah, I get it," rumbles the lion guardian, "I used to be like that. Not sure where I was going. In the end, I was happy to settle down into a nice long-term position here. I guess the reliability is what I really enjoy. Well, don't be afraid to keep looking."

The two of you spend a while chatting, and the Lion lifts your spirits. Maybe you just need to keep trying things until you figure out what you're looking for? The lion gestures to the open cave mouth behind him.

"What the heck, kid. Have a little look around."
