"Hey Proxxy, we'll trade you the key to your Sanctum Sanctorum in exchange for that useless blue majigger in your inventory."
//if(goodTrade==true); InvExchange(Electric_Key, Astral_Influx)

Try "Hey, you have my Loot-Light! I'll trade you your key for it." If she enquires further, it was one of the earliest pieces of loot we found and it's a handy light in a pinch.
That way we have an actual reason for immediately trying to trade for it. Much less obvious we know what (and how valuable) it is that way.

I forget, does Ciro know she is a sibling of Oric and Proxxy? or is that still to be found out by the in game characters?

Proxxy isn't a complete moron, and (IIRC) she was pretty savvy about the soul-stars when Cherish first met her. Calling the Influx a 'loot light' or 'useless thing' or whatever won't get us anywhere useful or persuade her to give it to us.
Besides, I'd rather not let her know she has another bargaining chip.
-1 to asking for Influx.
Just wait for more Plot goals exposition from Proxxy about this person / how to find them / etcetera

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

I think it's safe to say that Proxxy knows that we own the Astral Influx, and she probably also knows we want it back (or assumes we do, given that it is, y'know, our soul in a jar,) so mostly I'm hoping to assess whether the electric key has any value to her. Right now, Proxxy has all the things we want- Al and Riltia's location, the Astral Influx, very likely the Illborn Exchange, loads of information... and we've got basically nothing she wants. We need to increment our backs scratched counter.

Rubric Registrar, Menu Proxxy's Soul Star, then take the damned stairs down

-1 to asking (or using) the Influx yet.

Okay, +1 to this.

-1 to asking for the influx, Proxxy knows how valuable it is, and isn't likely to trade for it.

That said, I vote we ask Proxxy just what it is she's looking for. Right now I have no idea what it is she wants from us (aside from the vague notion that it's probably on DL3), and more exposition is always nice.

No. Don't go there. We want this suggestion to happen without FFS denying it because somebody decided to be creepy :/

Oh god I just realized what person lives on D:3 who might answer subversive questions about Oric and the Warrens. I feel really dumb for not seeing it earlier.

Cherish- Ask where Cool Crab went

Proxxy happily makes the trade.



Proceed to D:3

Rubric Registrar Proxxy, Menu Proxxy's Soul Star.  Ask Proxxy what that void is.  Examine pile of redstone or possibly Santa Hat near the floor hint.

She's not used to being an adventurer, is she? Let's give her a rundown of typical adventurer stuff as a crash course into her new life!

Also ask her what was up with that reaction with the soul star.

Wizard hat! TAKE IT TAKE IT TAKE IT TAKE IT TAKE IT TAKE IT

Also, do not stand in front of that X. The graffiti seems to indicate that the statue will shoot you.

Edit 2: Is that a trap door in front of the west exit?
