Figure who must never receive the memorial crystal's secrets, per Emberus's updated quest to Carl.
Carl's quest update from Emberus states that Memorial Crystal: Apito has fallen from Osvaldo's hands into Prepotente's possession, and that Carl must retrieve it from him before he cracks the secrets and gives them to The Epicure.
The wording implies Prepotente is either working with the Epicure or would hand the secrets over willingly, which is why Carl plans to sit the goat down and explain everything — but later, when neither of them is keyed up, since he suspects Prepotente is going to be an ass about it.
Not seen; named only as the party who must not obtain the crystal's secrets.
