Zev gets jealous that Eustace is getting his older sister's attention and believes he has an ulterior motive to helping her. He tells Nava to lay down, which she does reluctantly.

The party awakens and finds themselves back at Nava and Zev's residence once again being taken care of by Nava. Zev tells Nava that he wants to speak with her in private away from the party's ears. He tells her that he is able to get Nava's medicine for her on his own and that she doesn't need to flirt with Eustace. Nava tells him that she isn't flirting with him. Zev storms off to talk to Eustace. Nava asks the party to go look for her brother to keep him from getting into trouble with Eustace. At the town pub, Zev confronts Eustace and tells him to leave his sister alone, to which Eustace replies that Nava is a grown woman and is more than capable of making her own decisions, causing Zev to run away again. | ||
Meanwhile, in the middle of town, a pink-armored warrior is causing a ruckus with the Soulstealer in a gambit to escape Pilgrim's Perdition. Strom and his cronies attempt to confront the warrior to prevent anyone else's soul from being stolen, but he runs off. The party and the others give chase in order to prevent any further chaos, finding more soulless bodies strewn about the town. They eventually find the warrior in a confrontation with Storm, Eustace, Nava, Zev, and the rest of the townspeople. The warrior manages to steal another soul, bringing him one step closer to gaining his freedom from the monsters. Strom tells Eustace to help him subdue the warrior, telling him he'll make it worth his while and the guard crosses swords with the Soulstealer-wielding man. Storm sentences the man to death for the chaos that he's caused, but the warrior attempts to escape since he's close to attaining his goal. | |||
The two are able to overcome him. The pink warrior decides to attack Nava so that she will become the fifth soul he needs to get out of Pilgrim's Perdition. However, Zev intercepts the attack. The attack is shallow so it doesn't take Zev's soul but it was enough to warrant the monsters taking the pink warrior out of the town. All of the people whose souls were stolen, including Zev, are taken to the mountain settlement of [[Precipice Pass]]. | |||
Nava is despondent because of the loss of her brother. Eustace decides that he will help Nava get back her brother. He tells the party that he knows that he is unable to help Nava by himself. He decides to ally himself with the party in order to save Nava's brother and Jacqueline. He tells the party to meet him in the cave west of Pilgrim's Perdition, the same cave in which [[Fingers]] had betrayed them. | |||
While they are traveling through the cave, Eustace gives Nava a hairpin as a gift. Afterwards, the group reaches the mountain settlement where all of the remaining priests reside, guarded by the people who were attacked by the Soulstealer. However, Zev isn't there in the settlement. | |||
There they find the Head Priest and Nava talking with Eustace. Eustace realizes it is his duty to help save the High Priestess. He decides to take Fingers and the party with him. Eustace tells Nava to stay here while they rescue Jacqueline. | |||
[[Image:DQVII Fake Nava.jpg|left|thumb|250px|Eustace and the party confronting the imposter "Nava".]] | |||
Zev returns out of the blue, muttering to himself. The old chief priest is nowhere to be found. Eustace notices that Nava doesn't have on the hairpin that he gave her before in the cave. Nava claims that she lost it but Eustace isn't convinced. She acts uncharacteristically rude to Fingers, causing Maribel to remark that she seems like she was replaced by a completely different person. Ruff also states that Nava has the stench of a monster on her. Unbeknownst to them, this is actually a [[Gobbler]] in disguise. The high priestess gives the party the Alltrades Key to be able to unlock the door to the abbey. The group splits up before heading to the [[Tunnel to the Abbey]] with Eustace taking Fingers, Zev, and "Nava" with him, telling the Hero that they'll meet back up at the locked door. When the two groups meet back up, Eustace finally confronts Nava, who tries to take the key away from the party. The monster then reveals itself and attacks the party, but it is defeated. | |||

Nava has taken up the Soulstealer herself, hoping for a chance to kill the pink warrior who hurt Zev. However, her illness, coupled with the dementia created by the Soulstealer has made her unstable and erratic. Zev tells Nava to give him the Soulstealer, saying that she will feel better. However a monster stops Zev, telling him that it is curious to see how far Nava will go in the tournament. Zev storms off to talk to the monster running the arena to sign up but because he is by himself, the monsters do not allow him to participate.

The party goes up against five other warriors partied with monsters. They defeat five of them until they take on Nava, the current champion. Nava comments that even her brother wants to kill her. Zev tells her that he will save her. The party, with Zev's help, are able to disarm Nava and return her Soulstealer into her body, knocking her unconscious. Zev wishes to attend to her, but with five victories and the defeat of the current champion, the monsters push the party and Zev away, saying that they have earned their freedom. Eustace watches as the party is taken by the monsters. Zev tells Eustace to take care of his sister. As the monsters escort them off the stage, Zev runs back, thanking the party for helping him. Should the party return, they will see that the people have revolted against the monsters. The riot had been started by Eustace while he was protecting Nava. The rebellion is successful when the party defeats [[Cardinal Sin]]. | |||
Zev talks to Nava several days after the party's victory over Cardinal Sin. He tells her about his plan to help her with her illness, taking on quests so that he can afford the medicine she needs. Nava is adamantly against Zev's plan, saying that he would put himself in danger. Zev tells Nava that they don't have to depend on Eustace anymore. However, Nava tells Zev that she doesn't want him or anyone else to make sacrifices for her. She doesn't want to feel like a burden. She tells her younger brother that she can take care of herself. Zev walks away, saying that he needs to get a sword as he is now a warrior. Nava doesn't realize that Zev has left her in Alltrades Abbey to find a way to help her with her illness. | |||
