Kai speech bubble

[superlloyd]

There is a funny symbol looking like a stylised cloud on the bottom left of my screen.
I assume it means Kai wants to talk to me.. but I just can't make that happen!

What is this icon abut?

Note: I recently started the game and just exploring Pardis with the new companion (i.e. Kai)

Go to camp and talk to him there. If you just starting out, your first campsite is due north of the docks in the first area.

Gotta talk to them in camp. I mostly just ignored them and never talked to any companions though, lmao.

Aside from some lore and some very minor changes to the ending cutscenes, all you missed was two quests.

Oh... just fond a glowing stone that said "it was my camp" and now.. talking to him!
Thanks guys!

I take it (will find out after that) that one craft or upgrade gear in camp as well?!

Yes, that's where you'll do the upgrading and enchanting of unique weapons, where you would do cooking at the camp fire, and where you're gonna place your God totems.

That symbol means companion quest. Dialogue in camps progress those quest lines.

Ehhh...

I wouldn't call the conversations with the others 'quests' by any means. They all have something to say after most decisions, but Kai's is the only one that leads to a quest. The dwarf has a quest that I found while exploring, and the other two don't have companion quests at all outside the main story.
