“We’ll live in the mountains, far away. I’ll keep Arnon in chains if I have to!” - Earta - Festival of Heroes (GS-ADV1)

Festival of Heroes (GS-ADV1)
An Orc patient admitted to the House of Alarkus for his injuries from a Werewolf attack at the Festival of Heroes commends Earta's potioneering skill;
“You just missed her,” he explains. “Strange woman. Made me drink a potion that tasted like mud and earthworms. Not sure it did anything for my wounds, but it settled my stomach a bit.” - Festival of Heroes (GS-ADV1)
An Elf noble at the House of Alarkus also characterizes Earta as strange, reporting that she may even be staying at the Temple of Shintal;
When you mention that you are looking for a Human woman named Earta, the Elf’s eyes light up with recognition.
“She was here just moments ago,” he admits. “She’s not part of the Erthalian Order, but she insisted on treating the wounded. A very strange woman. I’ve heard rumors that she’s been living in the Temple of Shintal. ” - Festival of Heroes (GS-ADV1)
Later, you find Earta in the Temple of Shintal, mixing together herbs and spices in an attempt to cure her son Arnon. A confrontation with her and her son will transpire.
The Hive (GS-ADV3)
Exploring the Insectoid Hive, you may stumble upon Earta. She, like her son, has begun to transform into a Werewolf. Overpowering an Insectoid guard, she drags him into a dark tunnel. She begs you to spare her as she is convinced she has found a cure. - Explorer's Guide (GS-Guide-ADV3-1)
“I’ve almost found the cure,”she insists. “But it will take more than herbs to undo the curse. A sacrifice must be made to appease Ninik, god of the hunt.” - Earta - Explorer's Guide (GS-Guide-ADV3-1)
- Rescue the Insectoid. She escapes deeper into the cave.
- Help find a cure. In gratitude, she gives you a container of the foul smelling concoction.
