Halloween Party

If you speak with Brandon Mellus without completing any of Zhia Lian's quests, the following exchange will occur.

Uh, hi. Sorry. I'm pretty busy right now ...but hey, have you heard of Zhia Lian, the goddess of Whimsy? She's a great god! Would you like to go to a party in her honor?

Tell me more about this party
It'll happen in just a few days at a real casino! There's food, drink, music, ...you know, a party. And Zhia Lian herself is supposed to show! A party with a god is always fun. Especially a god of whimsy! It'll be unpredictable!
Sure, I'm interested in the party.
Here! read this! *Brandon hands you a batch of crumpled hand-written pages.* That's my last extra copy. I had thousands of pamphlets printed in Statehelm -- at an incredible expense I might add -- but they're lost in the desert now. This whole trip has been brutal...
I have to read all this for a party?!
Yeah. Zhia Lian has certain requirements before she'll attend a party. Everybody has to know the rules. So I need to ask you to read this and then answer a couple of questions. I'm really sorry. But the party will be completely worth it!
Okay... I'll read it and talk to you afterwards.
Boom! Already read it. What are the questions?
You read it? Just like that?
Yep. I'm a fast reader.
Ohhhh, right. I'm supposed to read it first! Be back later.
Okay, so I need to ask you a couple of questions on what you've read, and I can only ask you one time. If you get any question wrong, I can't invite you to the party! Here's the first question.

What is the main rule of the Cult of Zhia Lian?

- The undead are not your friends.
- The undead are totally your friends.
- Only summon Zhia Lian when you're super bored.
- Never ever summon Zhia Lian.
- Summon Zhia Lian on the night of the full moon and bring pancakes.
- Something about donkeys, I don't remember.
- Fomenting Evil Accrues Rewards (FEAR).
- Be predictably unpredictable.
- King Brandon whenever you see him.
- Actually, never mind. I'll be back later.

Never ever summon Zhia Lian.
Successfully answering the question will grant you an invitation to the party.
