The Tarantellists conduct dances to protect the world from untoward powers.

Cipagauta witnesses the Tarantellists beat their instruments to conjure an echo of the Thunderskin’s song, but as their dance intensifies, the cavern rumbles and forces him to escape to the surface. ‘They woke the earth in trying to protect it. Any further and they would bring it down upon themselves. I can’t help but wonder if they are the reason Calabria so often quakes.’ Effect: Cheerful Ditty
