When returning the relic to the temple after using it to zap yon nasty beholder from the Eyeless Cult, something odd happened.

( Normal )
If you approach Argus outside the temple, a conversation is automatically triggered, followed by the return and destruction of the relic sequence, and you get your EXP reward and shield.

( What happened to my party )
My lead character was wearing boots of speed. I clicked on Argus to talk to him,
my character reached him and began a conversation before the auto sequence started. The auto sequence was triggered a few seconds later. The overall effect was to get two conversations overlapped with each other, two EXP rewards ( !! ) , and two shields ( !! )

I tested this out several times and could only get to work if the conversing character was wearing the boots of speed.

I'll be trying to see if I can use this to trigger double rewards in any other quests ...

Did this happen to anyone else?
