[07:20] Ah, yes.
  Ah, sí.

[07:20] Yes, I I think so.
  Sí, creo que sí.

[07:20] Wait.

[07:25] One of the others had a portal scroll, but we couldn't reach it.
  Uno de los otros tenía un pergamino de portal, pero no pudimos alcanzarlo.

[07:44] [Music]
  [Música]

[07:47] You know, I didn't thank you properly, friend.
  Sabes, no te agradecí adecuadamente, amigo.

[07:49] I'm Corin, the village's blacksmith.
  Soy Corin, el herrero del pueblo.

[07:53] If you need to improve your armor or weapons, please see me.
  Si necesitas mejorar tu armadura o armas, por favor visítame.

[08:24] My eyes upon you.

[08:29] Weep and despair for the sin of your existence will be bled away.

[08:57] We are not bereft of hope yet.

[09:02] Ah, hello friend.
  Ah, hola amigo.

[09:02] My name is Decard.

[09:08] Kain. I'm a bit of a traveling scholar, one might say.
  Kain. Soy un erudito viajero, se podría decir.

[09:12] Lyra here mentioned you saved Corin from the cultists before that sudden commotion in the square.
  Lyra mencionó que salvaste a Corin de los cultistas antes de esa repentina conmoción en la plaza.

[09:21] Please tell me everything.
  Por favor, cuéntamelo todo.

[09:26] It seems dark forces have set their eyes upon Woreram.
  Parece que fuerzas oscuras han puesto sus ojos en Woreram.

[09:30] The cultist's leader mentioned a lord of damnation.
  El líder del cultista mencionó a un señor de la condenación.

[09:35] Said he was seeking some prize.
  Dijo que estaba buscando algún premio.

[09:40] That face wreathed in flame could only have been his.
  Esa cara envuelta en llamas solo pudo haber sido la suya.

[09:43] Lord of damnation, things are far worse than I imagined.
  Señor de la condenación, las cosas están mucho peor de lo que imaginaba.

[09:50] The forces of hell are seeking a shard of the world stone.
  Las fuerzas del infierno buscan un fragmento de la piedra del mundo.

[09:58] An artifact with the power to create entire realities.
  Un artefacto con el poder de crear realidades enteras.

[10:03] 5 years ago, the demon lord Bale nearly brought all of humanity under his thr
  Hace 5 años, el señor demonio Bale casi sometió a toda la humanidad bajo su do

[10:10] Using that stone.
  Usando esa piedra.

[10:12] If the demons were to obtain even a shard of it, the result would be catastrophic.
  Si los demonios obtuvieran siquiera un fragmento de ella, el resultado sería catastrófico.

[10:20] We cannot allow that to happen.
  No podemos permitir que eso suceda.

[10:24] Adventurer Kane, the cultists are attacking the Western Gate.
  Aventurero Kane, los cultistas están atacando la Puerta Oeste.

[10:27] We need help holding them back.
  Necesitamos ayuda para contenerlos.

[10:43] [Music]
  [Música]

[10:52] Your unworthy flesh will there must be another stronghold there.
  Tu indigna carne tendrá debe haber otro bastión allí.

[10:58] Don't worry about the town.
  No te preocupes por el pueblo.

[11:01] Go show those cultists no
  Ve y no muestres a esos cultistas

[11:26] Mercy.
  Misericordia.

[11:26] Heat.
  Calor.

[11:26] Heat.

[11:26] Heat.

[11:59] I must wait.
  Debo esperar.

[12:08] He's patient.
  Él es paciente.

[12:12] Finally.
  Finalmente.

[12:12] No.
  No.

[12:12] The endless

[12:33] Rafma blesses his own.
  Rafma se bendice a sí mismo.

[13:17] Thank you.
  Gracias.

[13:28] [Music]
  [Música]

[13:34] Heat.
  Calor.

[13:34] Heat.
  Calor.

[14:00] Lord Scan, the shard is ours and the right is nearly finished.
  Lord Scan, el fragmento es nuestro y el derecho casi ha terminado.

[14:04] The way will open.
  El camino se abrirá.

[14:08] You are not alone.
  No estás solo.

[14:12] Substitute.
  Sustituto.

[14:12] Slay the intruder in my name.
  Mata al intruso en mi nombre.

[14:25] Still recharging.
  Todavía recargando.

[14:31] I must wait.
  Debo esperar.

[14:31] It seems
  Parece

[14:45] That.
  Eso.

[14:58] Ability I'll come for you.
  Habilidad, iré por ti.

[15:28] Heat.
  Calor.

[15:31] Heat.
  Calor.

[15:31] Heat.
  Calor.

[15:31] Heat.
  Calor.

[16:31] I think by Wrathma, an endless sea of souls have perished because of this stone.
  Creo que por Wrathma, un mar interminable de almas han perecido por esta piedra.

[17:02] It is a beacon to life and death.
  Es un faro para la vida y la muerte.

[17:06] Kane will know what to do with it.
  Kane sabrá qué hacer con él.

[17:26] [Music]
  [Música]

[17:44] Hey, hey, hey.
  Hola, hola, hola.

[17:58] What you've accomplished is miraculous, my friend.
  Lo que has logrado es milagroso, amigo mío.

[18:01] To face such foes and live to tell the tale simply astounding.
  Enfrentar a tales enemigos y vivir para contarlo es simplemente asombroso.

[18:11] We were lucky I arrived in time.
  Tuvimos suerte de que llegara a tiempo.

[18:15] The cultists were summoning demons.
  Los cultistas estaban invocando demonios.

[18:18] Their leader called out to the Lord of Damnation, a demon Scarn.
  Su líder invocó al Señor de la Condenación, un demonio Scarn.

[18:21] I have never heard of this name before.
  Nunca antes había oído hablar de este nombre.

[18:25] And as far as I know, there is no demon lord of damnation.
  Y hasta donde sé, no existe ningún señor demonio de la condenación.

[18:28] Most troubling indeed.
  Realmente preocupante.

[18:36] And there's the matter of what we do with the shard.
  Y está el asunto de qué hacemos con el fragmento.

[18:39] This sort of power does not belong in mortal hands.
  Este tipo de poder no pertenece a manos mortales.

[18:45] Agree.
  Estoy de acuerdo.

[18:49] You see, I did not come to Woreram by chance, my friend.
  Verás, no vine a Woreram por casualidad, amigo mío.

[18:52] A herodric ritual allowed me to divine the location of several world stone shards.
  Un ritual heródrico me permitió adivinar la ubicación de varios fragmentos de la piedra del mundo.

[19:03] One was here in Woreram.
  Uno estaba aquí en Woreram.

[19:07] The other lies somewhere in the nearby cemetery of Ashwald.
  El otro yace en algún lugar del cercano cementerio de Ashwald.

[19:10] I came here hoping to obtain the shards and destroy them, if possible, before calamity descends upon us all.
  Vine aquí esperando obtener los fragmentos y destruirlos, si es posible, antes de que la calamidad descienda sobre todos nosotros.

[19:26] Be not alarmed, my old friend, for these frail bones come to you with an urgent request.
  No te alarmes, viejo amigo, pues estos débiles huesos acuden a ti con una petición urgente.

[19:33] My apprentice, Lethus, through foul means acquired a shard of the world stone.
  Mi aprendiz, Lethus, por medios inmundos adquirió un fragmento de la piedra del mundo.

[19:39] In her pursuit of power, she has brought ruin upon
  En su búsqueda de poder, ha traído la ruina sobre

[19:46] Ashworld.
  Ashworld.

[19:48] The dead rise from their graves, and the balance teeters on the brink of disruption, much like I, you cannot have forgotten the significance of that stone or the sacrifice it took to end its threat.
  Los muertos se levantan de sus tumbas, y el equilibrio se tambalea al borde de la disrupción, al igual que yo, no puedes haber olvidado la importancia de esa piedra o el sacrificio que costó acabar con su amenaza.

[20:03] So I beg of you to lend your aid however you can.
  Así que te ruego que me prestes tu ayuda como puedas.

[20:12] Darkness is spreading once again.
  La oscuridad se está extendiendo una vez más.

[20:17] And it seems I must ask the impossible of you.
  Y parece que debo pedirte lo imposible.

[20:21] Will you help me collect these corrupted shards and save our world from oblivion?
  ¿Me ayudarás a recolectar estos fragmentos corruptos y a salvar nuestro mundo de la perdición?

[20:31] The infinite power of creation held by a being who would claim dominion over damnation itself.
  El poder infinito de la creación en manos de un ser que reclamaría el dominio sobre la propia condenación.

[20:40] I can think of no greater threat to the balance from the depths of my heart.
  No puedo pensar en una mayor amenaza para el equilibrio desde lo más profundo de mi corazón.

[20:49] Thank you, friend.
  Gracias, amigo.

[20:52] Believe I have a few gifts for you.
  Creo que tengo algunos regalos para ti.

[20:55] The first of which lies here on the altar.
  El primero de los cuales yace aquí sobre el altar.

[20:58] While it may be simple, a good map is of vital importance.
  Aunque pueda ser simple, un buen mapa es de vital importancia.

[21:02] It will surely aid you upon your travels.
  Seguramente te ayudará en tus viajes.

[21:05] This is sanctuary.
  Este es el santuario.

[21:18] To protect it, you must cross many lands where forgotten evils linger.
  Para protegerlo, debes cruzar muchas tierras donde acechan males olvidados.

[21:28] [Music]
  [Música]

[21:30] Yet you must go without fear into the heart of the unknown.
  Sin embargo, debes ir sin miedo al corazón de lo desconocido.

[21:33] This burden falls to us.
  Esta carga recae sobre nosotros.

[21:37] A chance to fight the darkness to ensure our home's survival.
  Una oportunidad para luchar contra la oscuridad y asegurar la supervivencia de nuestro hogar.

[21:52] For a new evil covetss the world stones power.
  Un nuevo mal codicia el poder de las piedras del mundo.

[21:56] If a shard falls into hell's clutches, our world will burn here.
  Si un fragmento cae en las garras del infierno, nuestro mundo arderá aquí.

[22:09] This portal scroll has been specially attuned.
  Este pergamino de portal ha sido especialmente sintonizado.

[22:15] Once you have reclaimed the world stone shard from Ashworld, you can use that scroll to open a portal to West March.
  Una vez que hayas recuperado el fragmento de la piedra del mundo de Ashworld, puedes usar ese pergamino para abrir un portal a West March.

[22:25] There we will find a means to destroy the shards forever.
  Allí encontraremos un medio para destruir los fragmentos para siempre.

[22:29] Very well.
  Muy bien.

[22:33] I will meet you as soon as I am able.
  Te encontraré tan pronto como pueda.

[22:37] Be cautious on your journey to Ashworld, my friend.
  Ten cuidado en tu viaje a Ashworld, mi amigo.

[23:46] Not yet.

[24:04] Rafma blesses his own.

[24:11] [Music]

[24:33] Please,

[24:34] no, don't hurt me.

[24:43] Thank Gakarat for your help. But my

[24:45] husband, he's still in danger. Our home

[24:48] is to the northwest. He's all alone with

[24:50] those bandits. Please don't worry about

[24:53] me. Help him.

[24:56] [Music]

[25:08] My wife and I are a simple focus. We

[25:10] don't have anything of value.

[25:13] [Music]

[25:17] A thousand blessings upon you, friend.

[25:20] Ashworld's always had the occasional

[25:22] bandit, but nothing like this, though.

[25:26] What luck brings you to my door?

[25:30] I have my reasons. It seems Ashwald has

[25:34] become overrun with the

[25:36] undead. Do you know anything about that?

[25:40] I The whole guard's been fighting them

[25:43] for weeks. My son joined up at the Crypt

[25:45] of Honor Dead just this morning. If you

[25:48] find him, I'm certain he can tell you

[25:50] more.

[25:55] Yes, things are clearer now.

[26:40] [Music]

[27:10] Stop.

[27:11] Wasting my time, you peasant. I know her

[27:14] body was buried here. Where is Ailla's

[27:18] tomb?

[27:20] The queen's tomb was hidden. The dead

[27:24] deserve their rest. Wrong answer. The

[27:27] dead serve me. A fact you will learn

[27:31] soon

[27:34] enough. You. It's your turn. So, I

[27:37] suggest you speak quickly. Where is the

[27:41] tomb? I don't know. None of us do. Only

[27:45] the queen's handmmaid its location. I

[27:47] swear.

[27:50] Let us stop this. Your want and

[27:53] disregard for life ends here. You will

[27:57] be brought to justice.

[28:02] How I tire of your jealous attempts to

[28:05] suppress my potential. No. Now, with the

[28:09] power of the world stone at my command,

[28:12] I will obtain true dominion over the

[28:15] dead, your entire lethargic order will

[28:19] be swept away and replaced by one with

[28:22] the ambition to reshape this corrupt

[28:25] world. You are a relic, old man, and you

[28:29] are no longer needed.

[28:33] [Music]

[28:49] is another priest of Wrathma. I assume

[28:53] the order is growing impatient then.

[28:56] Well, I assure you I shall detain my

[28:58] former student. If you wish to be of

[29:01] help, perhaps you should start with that

[29:04] guard.

[29:10] What a day. Certainly didn't expect to

[29:12] get choked by some death mage when I

[29:15] left thestead this morning. Necromancer,

[29:18] not a mage. And she isn't past killing

[29:21] for the information she seeks. You just

[29:24] gave her a target. A silly's

[29:27] handmaidaiden. I need you to help me or

[29:31] that girl is as good as dead. Lights

[29:34] mercy. You're right. Wait, I know.

[29:37] Captain Amir at guard's watch. He knows

[29:40] the maid. If you head there right away,

[29:44] there may still be time.

[30:30] Not yet.

[31:10] Oh

[31:11] god. Just a stranger passing by. Are you

[31:15] all right? Is there a way I can help? A

[31:18] whitehaired woman. She asked me where

[31:22] she could find the crypt of the honored

[31:25] dead. I led her here. I didn't think

[31:28] anything of it. She slaughtered my

[31:31] friends. The town's folk. People died

[31:34] for my mistake. How was I to know she

[31:37] would kill them? Listen, no one blames

[31:40] you. Her actions are her own. But you

[31:43] need to return to God's watch. It isn't

[31:46] safe here. No. No. I won't go back.

[31:51] Please don't tell anyone you found me.

[31:54] All

[32:07] right. Give it more time.

[32:11] [Applause]

[32:19] That ability must

[32:26] recharge. Recharging.

[32:44] He my

[32:57] call. Right.

[33:18] Not

[33:27] yet. Heat. Heat.

[34:01] No, not yet.

[34:25] Recharge. Run if you

[34:30] like. No, not

[34:43] yet. Heat. Heat.

[35:13] Fear not the end.

[35:25] [Music]

[35:41] You'll be sitting

[35:45] down. Another day of the

[35:48] harp. You'll be sitting down.

[35:53] Whatever

[36:17] deep

[36:19] [Applause]

[36:32] Heat. Heat.

[36:50] Raf. So, you're the one who took care of

[36:53] the undead at our gates. Thank you for

[36:56] that. It's been a while since any

[36:58] visitors been able to walk through them.

[37:01] But I won't lie. We are in dire straits

[37:04] here. My men's weaponry won't survive

[37:06] another round like that one. Talk to

[37:09] Paulie, the blacksmith, and bring me

[37:11] what he's got finished. Then we can

[37:14] talk.

[37:17] Need something reforged, salvaged,

[37:19] maybe? H back to work then.

[37:38] [Music]

[37:51] What could I do for you? Let me guess.

[37:54] Asmir sent you. He knows I can see him.

[37:58] Yeah. Well, like I told the last guy,

[38:01] weapons take time to forge. I'm working

[38:04] as fast as I can and that's fairly fast.

[38:08] All

[38:09] right. I'm sorry. The stress is eating

[38:12] everyone alive. Here, I've got half the

[38:15] lot done. Just take them to the man.

[38:19] Hopefully, that will hold them for a

[38:21] little while longer. No. Well, good luck

[38:25] out there. You're back and with half the

[38:28] order, no less. I I wish this were

[38:31] enough, but more and more these undead

[38:34] are rising, and my men are tired. Still,

[38:38] thank you. We will make

[38:41] do now. I'm certain you didn't come all

[38:44] this way to deliver me a bundle of

[38:46] swords. What brings you to God's Watch?

[38:49] I'm looking for Queen Ailla's former

[38:51] handmaidaiden. The girl's life is in

[38:54] grave danger.

[38:56] The handmaiden? Gods? I didn't know. Her

[39:00] home isn't far. Just up the trail from

[39:02] here beyond the graves. I'd join you if

[39:04] I could, but it's all right. I

[39:07] understand. Don't worry. I will find

[39:10] her.

[39:14] Need something

[39:21] reforged? Most appreciated.

[39:43] More time.

[39:57] My wounds men.

[40:36] Wow. Ow.

[40:43] Your corpses are mine.

[41:16] each

[41:16] other. I need

[41:19] aid. I am in need.

[41:52] Wait, let's do each other.

[41:56] [Music]

[42:09] Heat. Heat.

[42:34] [Music]

[42:43] charge. I must wait.

[42:50] The undead have nearly overrun her

[42:53] home. That cannot be

[42:56] good. Finally, a little light.

[43:00] Wait, that's blood.

[43:13] [Music]

[43:49] I'm too late.

[43:58] Not yet.

[44:05] The familiar sight of

[44:08] death. The girl was killed before I

[44:12] arrived. Tortured by your apprentice, I

[44:15] assume. Yes, this does look like her

[44:18] handiwork. The body is still warm,

[44:23] too. I believe a reanimation is in

[44:26] order. Watch carefully. This right is

[44:30] usually shown only to masters.

[44:46] Rathna, guide my voice to the soul of

[44:49] the recently slain. Return to us, child.

[44:54] We have one final task for you.

[44:59] No, no. Stop torturing me. I didn't do

[45:03] anything. I told you everything. It's

[45:07] all right. No one can hurt you anymore.

[45:11] You are safe now. That woman, the one

[45:15] who hurt you. What did she

[45:20] want? She wanted the location of the

[45:23] queen's tomb. I told her I didn't want

[45:28] you,

[45:30] but she made me.

[45:34] They buried the queen in the old garden,

[45:38] hid her tomb underneath so no one would

[45:41] ever just have her

[45:43] rest. I failed, Estella. I failed my

[45:48] queen.

[45:54] Po girl, I'll stay here. Ensure she's

[45:59] properly entered. You however need to

[46:02] get to that tomb. Do not let Lethus near

[46:05] the queen's

[46:08] body. Rathma blesses his own.

[46:34] [Music]

[46:38] Heat.

[46:45] Heat. Heat.

[47:20] Wow.

[47:52] Without a corpse.

[48:21] More of these disgusting

[48:24] spiders.

[48:28] More time.

[48:57] The queen's spirit will lead the way to

[48:59] the black king.

[49:10] Leoric master will have his wretched

[49:14] soul and the damn shall bow before their

[49:19] new monarch.

[49:25] Heat. Heat.

[49:48] to reach the mana. Her task will not be

[49:53] halted. Is underway.

[49:59] The mansion can only be to the north. I

[50:02] have to hurry.

[50:08] Still recharging.

[50:53] He must recharge. How do you do it,

[50:56] adventurer? How does one live like this?

[51:00] One day everything's peaceful and the

[51:02] next you're fighting off a corpse that

[51:04] looks like your friend. I've nearly

[51:05] struck down a hundred of these rotten

[51:07] things. Seen my brothers in arms die to

[51:11] them. All because of some

[51:14] necromancer. Tell me, how do you keep

[51:17] fighting when it eats at your soul? It

[51:21] is not easy. Yet some of us have the

[51:24] strength to fight back. We must do so

[51:28] for those who cannot. You're right. I

[51:31] think it's time I headed back to camp.

[51:33] Captain Esme is going to need everyone

[51:35] he can get. No sense giving in to

[51:37] despair, eh? Thank you, friend.

[52:12] [Music]

[52:16] Earth balance.

[52:32] Heat. Heat.

[52:51] Wait.

[53:17] Ah, hello again. I assume you followed

[53:20] the surge of energy here as well.

[53:23] Lethus, come. We must find the source of

[53:26] this profane right. At its apex, we will

[53:30] find my wayward apprentice.

[53:51] I need a corpse for that.

[54:07] A necrotic barrier. Quaint. Well, there

[54:11] are always three of these rituals. Go

[54:14] and put an end to the others. In the

[54:17] meantime, I'll go and keep let occupied.

[54:20] For my sake, do try to be expedient.

[54:26] [Music]

[54:44] Heat. Heat.

[55:09] You

[55:15] rot my

[55:18] inside. Heat. Heat.

[56:01] Wait. All I was

[56:25] [Music]

[56:35] I

[56:54] [Music]

[56:59] Good

[57:01] job.

[57:19] Heat. Heat.

[57:25] [Music]

[58:16] damn you su always so persistently

[58:20] afraid of my talent. Well, no more. I'm

[58:25] beyond you

[58:27] now. Soon theoric soul will be mine. And

[58:31] with it, I will be the greatest

[58:34] necromancer alive. Drathma himself will

[58:38] fear my name. And

[58:41] you, your suffering begins now.

[59:05] My wound is men.

[59:20] Yes, it is done. The breach is open. You

[59:25] cannot stop it.

[59:27] And I don't intend to. You are my

[59:31] target, Lethus. My failure to put down.

[59:40] Please, you can no more put me down this

[59:43] time than you could the last.

[59:51] The rift is drawing strength from the

[59:54] skeleton king's essence. You must go

[59:56] inside and break the tether that

[59:58] connects them. Are you actually

[01:00:00] suggesting that I physically enter the

[01:00:03] realm of the dead and quell the Mad

[01:00:06] King's spirit? Uh, yes. Lethus desires

[01:00:11] dominion over the undead. The power

[01:00:13] Diablo left within Leoric's blackened

[01:00:16] soul. Put his soul to rest and the rift

[01:00:21] will go inert.

[01:00:54] Let us face the darkness as one.

[01:01:03] [Music]

[01:01:16] We grow ever stronger.

[01:01:29] Oh, the things we shall accomplish

[01:01:41] together. I was cast

[01:01:44] aside, but I found the

[01:01:48] shard. I

[01:01:50] found purpose.

[01:01:53] The queen's

[01:01:54] spirit would lead me to

[01:01:58] Leoric and the power to rule over the

[01:02:03] dead. I will be

[01:02:07] vindicated. Leoric's soul is the key.

[01:02:17] Leoric's throne lies somewhere in this

[01:02:20] haunted realm.

[01:02:21] It's time to put his wretched soul back

[01:02:24] to

[01:02:44] rest. Have we not suffer enough?

[01:03:15] Heat. Heat.

[01:03:26] Death is

[01:03:41] inevitable.

[01:03:51] Heat.

[01:04:25] Yeah. Heat.

[01:04:59] Wait, it seems

[01:05:29] Death is inevitable.

[01:05:34] Just

[01:05:52] patience.

[01:06:04] Heat. Heat.

[01:06:40] The walk of life has no place among the

[01:06:51] Heat.

[01:07:05] Yeah. Heat.

[01:07:27] I

[01:07:28] shall pass how the living will suffer

[01:07:32] for

[01:07:39] your

[01:07:43] k worthy hands have shaped your steel.

[01:08:01] Lethus got

[01:08:03] away. She was right. I couldn't do it. I

[01:08:07] couldn't kill her. But you you can still

[01:08:11] catch her if you're quick about it.

[01:08:13] You're wounded. Let me help you. No. You

[01:08:18] swore an oath to protect the balance.

[01:08:21] Honor it and stop her.

[01:08:54] [Music]

[01:09:23] Drathma blesses his own.

[01:09:48] [Music]

[01:10:31] It is done. Lethus, you will answer for

[01:10:34] this abuse of power. Sanctimonious to

[01:10:38] the end. Just like the rest of your

[01:10:40] rotten brethren. You want to see power?

[01:10:44] Very well. Allow me to demonstrate.

[01:11:16] Heat.

[01:11:34] Heat.

[01:12:00] [Music]

[01:12:02] So, Lethus escaped then. She never was

[01:12:06] the type to put her life on the line.

[01:12:09] Another simulacrim. Although this one

[01:12:12] was far more convincing than the last. I

[01:12:15] suppose having a chunk of the world

[01:12:17] stone in its possession helped. I'm glad

[01:12:20] to see it safely in your hands. Yes, I

[01:12:25] know what that is. Although it's quite a

[01:12:27] bit smaller than the last time I saw

[01:12:31] it. I will have to follow after her.

[01:12:34] Regardless, I must thank you for your

[01:12:36] aid, my friend. Blessings of Wrathma

[01:12:39] upon your journey wherever it may take

[01:12:42] you. One last thing. When you return to

[01:12:45] Cain, it would be wise to have him

[01:12:48] examine that weapon you found. He may

[01:12:51] not look it, but that old scholar always

[01:12:53] had a knack for

[01:12:55] identifying hidden potential.

[01:13:01] All of this suffering over a single

[01:13:03] shard.

[01:13:04] Hopefully Elder Kane. Now let's see if

[01:13:07] this scroll of West Mount

[01:13:40] [Music]

[01:14:01] All there A moment, stranger. We're

[01:14:04] speaking with all new arrivals seeking

[01:14:06] asylum. H you don't look like one of

[01:14:09] these refugees from Ashwald. What brings

[01:14:12] you to West March? I'm supposed to meet

[01:14:15] someone in the city.

[01:14:19] Another tight-lipped adventurer. You're

[01:14:21] not the first to step through these

[01:14:23] gates on

[01:14:24] business. All right, everything checks

[01:14:27] out. Move along and keep the peace.

[01:14:29] Understood.

[01:14:34] [Music]

[01:14:40] adventurer. Huh? I knew it had to be

[01:14:42] you. Been waiting a while for you to

[01:14:44] show. Chie would have stayed, but you

[01:14:47] know she's got business to run. Huh? I

[01:14:50] knew it had to be you. Been waiting a

[01:14:52] while for you to show. Chie would have

[01:14:54] stayed, but you know she's got business

[01:14:56] to run. I'm sorry. Who is Chi? How do

[01:15:01] you know me? Oh, forgive

[01:15:04] me. I got a little overzealous there.

[01:15:08] Let's say we all have a mutual friend, a

[01:15:11] certain scholar who arrived before you.

[01:15:15] Our friend asked us to greet you when

[01:15:17] you arrived. Listen, Charles is the one

[01:15:20] you want to speak with. Find her at the

[01:15:22] blacksmith and she'll guide you further.

[01:15:25] Welcome to West March. Good luck.

[01:15:46] [Music]

[01:16:19] I hope that can help.

[01:16:23] What do you need, friend?

[01:16:40] [Music]

[01:16:52] I hope that can help. What do you need,

[01:16:54] friend? Excuse me. Are you

[01:16:56] Chassi? A man on the bridge implied you

[01:16:59] could help me find Decard Kain. It's

[01:17:02] you. You're here. Kane is going to be so

[01:17:05] happy you arrived. Well, let me be among

[01:17:09] the first to welcome you to West March.

[01:17:12] Isn't it as grand as the stories say?

[01:17:15] Yes. West March, a city that has never

[01:17:19] been a true friend to the priests of

[01:17:21] Wrathma. I would like to reach Elder

[01:17:24] Cain quickly if possible.

[01:17:27] Oh, right. Of course, Kain has a

[01:17:31] workshop over to the left of the central

[01:17:33] square, just beyond the fountain. You

[01:17:35] know, once I finished up here, I'll join

[01:17:38] you two. Give you a proper introduction

[01:17:40] to the

[01:17:41] city. Be safe. All right.

[01:17:52] [Music]

[01:18:30] Ah, welcome friend. Welcome. I am glad

[01:18:34] to see you made it here safely. And with

[01:18:38] the shard of the world stone, I

[01:18:42] hope indeed. With every step, I have

[01:18:46] felt its power tug at my

[01:18:50] soul. I am glad to be rid of it. Well

[01:18:53] done, my friend. I am certain it was no

[01:18:58] easy task to acquire this shard.

[01:19:01] Sadly, there is no simple answer on how

[01:19:05] to destroy an object this

[01:19:07] powerful. For now, it must be kept out

[01:19:11] of

[01:19:21] sight. You may recall I spoke of a

[01:19:24] ritual that revealed the world stone

[01:19:27] shards in Woreram and Ashworld.

[01:19:30] Well, while you were busy, so was I. And

[01:19:34] Tal Rash's ritual has revealed a third

[01:19:38] stone to

[01:19:43] me. You see, the ritual cannot simply

[01:19:47] find all the shards across the world.

[01:19:50] No, it reveals those that are being used

[01:19:54] in some form.

[01:19:55] [Music]

[01:19:57] It seems the magic of the world stone

[01:19:59] emanates from the dark wood. A place of

[01:20:03] great and ancient

[01:20:08] evil. So the shard is already in

[01:20:11] someone's hands then.

[01:20:15] Unfortunately, yes. You must expect that

[01:20:18] the darkness is already moving against

[01:20:22] you. But you are not alone. In fact,

[01:20:26] Charie should be here soon. I can think

[01:20:29] of no one better to help you find the

[01:20:32] strength you will

[01:20:38] need. I see. Well, if we have time,

[01:20:42] there is another

[01:20:43] matter. Zul mentioned you might be able

[01:20:46] to help me with a weapon I found. He

[01:20:49] said it had hidden

[01:20:51] potential, whatever that meant. Really?

[01:20:55] Let me see it. I used to be quite adept

[01:20:58] at revealing the properties of magical

[01:21:01] equipment, you know. Ah, yes. The

[01:21:04] grooves of this weapon function as

[01:21:08] sockets. Some rare armors and weapons

[01:21:12] can be befitted with gems of legendary

[01:21:17] power. There's research on it around

[01:21:20] here. If you can find it in the

[01:21:25] mess. I'll have a look

[01:21:45] around. These so-called legendary gems

[01:21:48] seem very useful.

[01:21:50] How would one go about acquiring them?

[01:21:53] Well, the writings I've seen speak of

[01:21:57] the Elder Rift in the same breath as

[01:22:00] these gems. Legends upon legends, it

[01:22:04] seems. Still, I believe the royal mages

[01:22:08] recently made a breakthrough involving

[01:22:10] something called crests. That reminds

[01:22:15] me, wasn't Chari supposed to arrive

[01:22:18] shortly? If anyone would know more of

[01:22:22] these rumors, it would be her. No one

[01:22:26] has a finger upon the pulse of West

[01:22:28] March like she does.

[01:22:36] Oh, you're done already. I would have

[01:22:39] thought destroying world stone shards

[01:22:40] would take more time than that. You're

[01:22:43] not wrong there. And it appears I must

[01:22:46] find another in the dark wood.

[01:22:49] Kane mentioned you might be able to help

[01:22:51] out the Dark

[01:22:54] Wood. You know, I grew up not far from

[01:22:56] there. If you're heading to a place like

[01:22:59] that, you're going to need some better

[01:23:00] equipment. Well, Kane mentioned

[01:23:04] something called an elder rift. His

[01:23:07] research claims it could be the key to

[01:23:09] harnessing the power of the legendary

[01:23:11] gems. Do you know anything of it? Of

[01:23:14] course. The rift stones are just inside

[01:23:16] Palace Square. I bet we'll find someone

[01:23:18] who can help up

[01:23:20] [Music]

[01:23:33] there. That man was speaking with the

[01:23:35] court mages earlier. Let's see what he

[01:23:37] knows.

[01:23:49] [Music]

[01:23:56] Excuse me. I had heard a rumor that

[01:23:58] there's been a breakthrough with the

[01:24:00] Elder Rift. You strike me as someone who

[01:24:03] might know a thing or two about it.

[01:24:05] You've got a sharp eye,

[01:24:07] adventurer. The court mages have been

[01:24:09] testing out various crests of power for

[01:24:12] a while now. We've just been given

[01:24:16] permission to start selling

[01:24:18] them, only to qualified individuals, of

[01:24:22] course. From the look of you, I think we

[01:24:26] might be able to do business, friend.

[01:24:28] What do you say? The first crest's on

[01:24:31] me. We have an accord, then. Head over

[01:24:35] to the pedestal and place that crest

[01:24:37] into one of the recesses there. From

[01:24:40] what the mages tell me, that should

[01:24:42] activate the Elder

[01:24:44] Rift. Good luck in there.

[01:24:49] A legendary crest. Oh, how fancy. I'll

[01:24:53] be waiting here when you're

[01:24:55] [Music]

[01:25:03] done. Hallelujah.

[01:25:07] [Music]

[01:26:54] Give it more time.

[01:27:16] Heat. Heat.

[01:27:30] Not yet.

[01:27:44] I'm

[01:27:51] here. Death is inevitable.

[01:28:15] I am renewed.

[01:28:44] Die and

[01:28:53] rot.

[01:29:09] Heat. Heat.

[01:29:28] must

[01:29:30] recharge. Your grave

[01:29:42] beckons. Heat. Heat.

[01:30:11] Your hores

[01:30:15] are spirit.

[01:30:37] Heat. Heat.

[01:30:47] I will not get.

[01:30:52] There is always more to comprehend.

[01:30:56] [Applause]

[01:32:05] [Music]

[01:32:13] Yo,

[01:32:14] back. Oh, thank the high heavens.

[01:32:17] Someone finally

[01:32:20] survived. I knew you were the right one.

[01:32:23] And tell me, what was it like in there?

[01:32:26] Mazeike corridors filled with untold

[01:32:28] horror. As expected, I did find a few

[01:32:30] valuable things. Hold on. Did you say

[01:32:35] finally survived?

[01:32:37] Valuable things? Huh? Oh, I like the

[01:32:40] sound of that. Business is going to be

[01:32:42] booming once rumor of ancient treasures

[01:32:45] starts to circle around the city. Here,

[01:32:48] you more than earned these, friend. Have

[01:32:50] a few more crests on the house. Who

[01:32:53] knows what you'll find in there next

[01:32:55] time, huh? Hells, if you find something

[01:32:57] nice enough, you might even be able to

[01:33:00] make some decent platinum at that market

[01:33:02] in Raka Square to the south. Take a

[01:33:05] gander if you get the chance. It'll be

[01:33:07] worth it. All done. Oh, before we head

[01:33:10] out, let me show you something you'll

[01:33:15] like. That is the bounty board. The city

[01:33:18] guard puts up tasks from various

[01:33:20] patrons, and adventurers like you take

[01:33:22] care of them. It's a good way to earn

[01:33:24] the gold you'll need to buy better

[01:33:26] equipment. But enough of that. I want to

[01:33:29] hear more about the legendary gems. How

[01:33:32] did things go in the rift? Did you find

[01:33:34] what you were looking for? That I did.

[01:33:37] Kane's research proved accurate once

[01:33:39] again. The legendary gems are hidden

[01:33:42] within those

[01:33:43] rifts. Now we just need to find a way to

[01:33:46] use them. Jewelry is not my specialty.

[01:33:50] If anyone's going to know how, it's Vic.

[01:33:52] He's a master jewel crafter. Been

[01:33:54] working with gems for years. I'll show

[01:33:57] you the way. Why don't you grab a bounty

[01:33:59] off the board before we leave?

[01:34:02] The guard refreshes the bounties every

[01:34:04] day, so make sure to keep a lookout.

[01:34:06] [Music]

[01:34:09] Vic's shop is just to the west of my

[01:34:11] smithy.

[01:34:12] [Music]

[01:34:30] So

[01:34:34] [Music]

[01:34:39] Help,

[01:34:45] thieves. I'll kill these two before

[01:34:47] anyone else shows up.

[01:34:51] [Music]

[01:34:57] Are you all right? Can you walk?

[01:35:01] Well, yes. I think I'm fine. Thanks to

[01:35:04] the both of you. I may need some help

[01:35:06] getting back to my shop. However, we've

[01:35:08] got you. Vic shop isn't too far from

[01:35:11] here. Aarat, bless the both of you.

[01:35:14] Adventurer, I don't think it's a good

[01:35:16] idea for me to carry these gems any

[01:35:19] longer. Please take them to my workshop

[01:35:22] and let my apprentice know we'll be

[01:35:24] there soon.

[01:35:28] [Music]

[01:35:54] She help.

[01:36:02] [Music]

[01:36:13] Children.

[01:36:16] [Music]

[01:36:36] Hey,

[01:36:39] [Music]

[01:37:12] Come on.

[01:37:19] [Music]

[01:37:41] Huh? Help.

[01:37:48] [Music]

[01:38:36] Heat. Heat.

[01:39:08] [Music]

[01:39:13] Heat. Heat.

[01:39:26] [Music]

[01:39:31] Yeah.

[01:40:04] Time.

[01:40:06] Heat.

[01:40:23] Heat.

[01:40:39] Not

[01:40:40] yet. I'm healed.

[01:40:49] [Music]

[01:41:54] Oh.

[01:42:11] Heat. Heat.

[01:42:31] [Music]

[01:42:34] Jesus.

[01:42:39] [Music]

[01:43:35] Oh, hello at combining socketing polish.

[01:43:38] fishing. We do it all. Nothing else that

[01:43:40] can help. Hello, Master Vic. Is he all

[01:43:43] right? Usually his card has arrived by

[01:43:46] now. He was attacked, but he's going to

[01:43:49] be fine. Charie is bringing him here

[01:43:51] now. He asked me to guard these gems

[01:43:54] until he arrived. Oh, the shipment's

[01:43:56] safe. Thank the high heavens. We would

[01:44:00] have been in a lot of trouble if that

[01:44:02] hadn't arrived. You're a real lifesaver,

[01:44:04] friend. I will tell you all I have never

[01:44:10] been glad to be home. Thank you, Chie.

[01:44:14] And you, my new

[01:44:16] friend. The both of you are welcome in

[01:44:19] the shop anytime. Ah, I see you met with

[01:44:22] my apprentice, Sarah. Good. If you ever

[01:44:25] need to suck at gems or craft more

[01:44:27] powerful varieties, come here and she

[01:44:30] can help you out for a small fee. Well,

[01:44:33] it's time we got

[01:44:37] going.

[01:44:43] Hello. Nothing else I can help you

[01:44:47] with. Oh, hello. Combining, socketing,

[01:44:51] polishing, we do it all.

[01:44:55] [Music]

[01:45:00] Nothing else I can help you with. Oh,

[01:45:02] hello. That combining?

[01:45:05] Well, that got a little scary there for

[01:45:07] a moment. Still, it sounds like Zerald.

[01:45:10] What do you say we head back to the

[01:45:11] smithy? Fancy jewels aren't the only

[01:45:14] [Music]

[01:45:19] way. Oh, hello. Combining. Oh, hello.

[01:45:23] Combining, socketing, polishing, we do

[01:45:26] it all.

[01:45:33] I've been itching to put the malice to

[01:45:35] good use. Be safe. All right.

[01:45:41] [Music]

[01:45:53] You do the fighting. I'll do the What do

[01:45:55] you need, friend? A few spare materials

[01:45:57] and some magical essence can do a lot in

[01:45:59] the right hands. If you're remember when

[01:46:02] I said I grew up around there? Well, I

[01:46:04] used to belong to the Sisters of the

[01:46:06] Sightless Eye. They have a monastery

[01:46:09] nearby. It's only been a few years, but

[01:46:12] it feels like a lifetime since I've seen

[01:46:14] my

[01:46:15] sisters. High Priestess Aara gave me

[01:46:18] this amulet when I left. Said it would

[01:46:20] open a portal in case I ever needed to

[01:46:23] find my way home. If the World Stone

[01:46:26] Shard is there, they're going to need

[01:46:29] help.

[01:46:31] I pray nothing bad has happened. Thank

[01:46:33] you, Chie. You were right. Goodbye.

[01:46:38] [Music]

[01:47:17] Yeah.

[01:47:21] [Music]

[01:47:49] Finally.

[01:47:53] Heat. Heat.

[01:48:14] [Music]

[01:48:29] Yeah, heat.

[01:48:43] [Music]

[01:48:47] It is not my time. It seems

[01:49:16] The balance is

[01:49:23] preserved.

[01:49:34] Heat.

[01:49:56] Heat.

[01:50:22] Your grave beckons.

[01:50:32] [Music]

[01:50:45] Heat.

[01:50:53] Heat.

[01:51:08] Heat. Heat.

[01:51:31] the

[01:51:48] front. He

[01:51:50] has reforged that which is broken in

[01:51:55] you.

[01:52:02] [Applause]

[01:52:18] I got to know.

[01:52:25] [Music]

[01:52:38] My insight

[01:52:40] [Music]

[01:52:51] grows. Oh, hello.

[01:52:55] [Music]

[01:53:09] Heat. Heat.

[01:53:12] [Music]

[01:53:46] Heat. Heat.

[01:54:02] [Music]

[01:54:16] Thank you. And come again.

[01:54:20] [Music]

[01:55:17] An evil air permeates this forest.

[01:55:21] Help! Get this free of me!

[01:55:35] Mike, I will try. Can you tell me what

[01:55:39] happened here? These women, him and

[01:55:42] Black Armor, they attacked the town.

[01:55:44] They summoned these terrible

[01:55:46] fights here.

[01:56:07] [Music]

[01:56:24] A blood trail. Please don't be the girl.

[01:56:45] I must

[01:56:50] wait. Too old to be the man's daughter.

[01:56:54] The body is cold, drained of blood. What

[01:56:58] could have done this so quickly?

[01:57:06] The vine was feeding on the

[01:57:10] corpse. They're draining this village of

[01:57:13] its

[01:57:14] blood.

[01:57:18] Why? Discarded

[01:57:21] clothing and another emaciated body.

[01:57:28] Someone help, please. I can't open the

[01:57:31] door. Father,

[01:57:38] who's out there? Alyssa, I'm going to

[01:57:41] get you out of there.

[01:57:45] Who are you? Where is father?

[01:57:49] I'm a friend. Your father, he

[01:57:53] didn't listen. Your village is under

[01:57:57] attack. We have to get you out of here

[01:57:59] now.

[01:58:02] Leave. No, I'm not leaving. My father

[01:58:06] told me to stay hidden. He promised to

[01:58:08] get me to safety. He's going to come

[01:58:10] back. He has to.

[01:58:13] Alyssa, your father is dead. His last

[01:58:18] request was for me to save you and to

[01:58:22] deliver this letter to someone called

[01:58:23] Kashia. You You really did see him,

[01:58:27] didn't you?

[01:58:32] All right, but stay close. The camp is

[01:58:35] this way. Follow me.

[01:58:41] [Music]

[01:59:02] Two more of those peasants. They're

[01:59:04] fleeing from the village. Alyssa, get

[01:59:07] back. Let me fight

[01:59:09] them. Not yet.

[01:59:16] Are you all right? Did she hurt you? No,

[01:59:20] no. I'm okay. I'm sorry. I didn't know

[01:59:23] what to do. They killed my father,

[01:59:26] everyone in my village, and then she was

[01:59:29] standing right there taunting me like I

[01:59:33] was nothing. You are not nothing. We

[01:59:37] will ensure those women paid for what

[01:59:40] they did. Help. Goodbye. Help me.

[01:59:44] Do not fear. We will fight back these

[01:59:47] traitors together.

[01:59:54] No time to rest yet, stranger. More are

[01:59:57] coming.

[01:59:59] Not yet.

[02:00:21] [Music]

[02:00:24] Is that all of them? Yes, but remain

[02:00:28] alert. We are close to their den. My

[02:00:31] rogues and I will continue the pursuit.

[02:00:37] Stop her.

[02:00:41] A cruel fate for one so

[02:00:44] young. I knew the girl's father, and

[02:00:47] since you were with her, I take it he

[02:00:50] did not survive

[02:00:53] either. You are no

[02:00:55] villager. Who are you? Why are you here?

[02:00:59] I am a priest of Wrathma. I came here

[02:01:02] seeking a priestess and have found only

[02:01:05] carnage and loss.

[02:01:08] You must be

[02:01:09] Kasha. Then this letter is yours. The

[02:01:14] girl and her father died trying to bring

[02:01:17] it to you.

[02:01:19] Let me see it,

[02:01:21] Outlander. Lucian was right to be

[02:01:24] afraid. These bloods horn sadly

[02:01:28] Blackstone is

[02:01:29] gone. And like with this poor girl,

[02:01:33] there is no one doing the terrible loss

[02:01:35] of life.

[02:01:37] But we can avenge the fallen and prevent

[02:01:40] further misery.

[02:01:45] Commander, LR's forces.

[02:01:50] Commander, LR's forces ambushed us. The

[02:01:54] Bloodsworn retreated into the overgrown

[02:01:56] village, but our numbers are Flobby.

[02:01:59] Order the rogues to pull back. Get the

[02:02:01] injured to the battle camp and bury the

[02:02:04] dead. My new friend and I will be the

[02:02:06] ones pursuing Lockree from here. As for

[02:02:09] you, Outlander, it appears you have the

[02:02:12] honor of heading in first. Once Flavi

[02:02:15] and I have ensured the safety of our

[02:02:17] sisters and recovered the bodies of

[02:02:19] those who've been lost. Considering you

[02:02:22] fought your way through that village, I

[02:02:24] doubt you will miss me too severely. Go

[02:02:28] show those traitors that death is the

[02:02:30] only mercy we will afford them. Gladly.

[02:02:35] The enemy's den lies beyond the failed

[02:02:37] tree. Take caution. The blood sworn are

[02:02:40] not to be tried.

[02:02:52] The rogues were outnumbered but fought

[02:02:55] well. I will finish their fight.

[02:03:28] Get a

[02:03:46] Thank you. I did not expect much

[02:03:49] kindness was left in these woods. Not

[02:03:52] since the blood swarm began their vile

[02:03:55] hunt. You're welcome. So far, you are

[02:03:58] the only prisoner I've seen still alive.

[02:04:02] Why have they not killed you? They were

[02:04:04] torturing me. Wanted me to join their

[02:04:07] perverse cause. That scene you saw

[02:04:11] outside. They want to spread that

[02:04:14] corruption through the woods. A druid

[02:04:17] would sooner die than aid in such a

[02:04:21] thing. In fact, I almost did. Kasha,

[02:04:25] you've missed the excitement.

[02:04:28] LRI and her retinue captured this druid.

[02:04:31] He's been injured. Yes, he's lost a lot

[02:04:34] of blood. Our friend here will not

[02:04:36] survive long without treatment. Someone

[02:04:39] will have to stay with him. I have

[02:04:41] gotten this far on my own. What's a

[02:04:44] little further? You outlanders seem to

[02:04:47] love surprising me. Fine. Very well. Go

[02:04:52] and deal with Lori. Once the deed is

[02:04:55] done, meet us back at the camp. May the

[02:04:58] great I mistress, I've done as you

[02:05:01] asked. The blood of every man, woman,

[02:05:04] and child in Blackstone runs through

[02:05:07] your veins. Yet it is not enough. I must

[02:05:11] behold once more. Hasten your efforts

[02:05:16] lest you lose

[02:05:19] my

[02:05:31] Heat.

[02:05:40] Heat. Heat.

[02:06:13] you. I won't fail her. I can't.

[02:06:22] This land has always belonged to her.

[02:06:25] She will ensure you remember those you

[02:06:28] have forgotten.

[02:06:31] Lori

[02:06:32] escaped. Kasha will need to know about

[02:06:34] this.

[02:06:40] You there? Where is Kasha? Oh, she uh

[02:06:44] she left for the battle camp a while

[02:06:46] ago. Had a druid in tow leading

[02:06:49] everywhere that one was. Hopefully the

[02:06:51] priestess can see through to his wounds.

[02:06:53] Head east through the woods to find the

[02:06:55] camp. But be

[02:06:57] [Music]

[02:07:03] careful.

[02:07:19] Start down.

[02:07:43] No, not

[02:07:47] yet.

[02:08:05] Heat. Heat.

[02:08:25] It seems

[02:09:05] [Music]

[02:09:06] Death. Leave me alone. You monsters.

[02:09:19] Thank you for your help. The Fallen have

[02:09:22] grown much more aggressive as of late.

[02:09:25] Kosha asked me to wait for you. Uh I'm

[02:09:28] glad you came along when you did. I'm

[02:09:31] Leen, by the way.

[02:09:34] You're welcome, Leanne.

[02:09:37] Do you know where I can find the battle

[02:09:39] camp of the Sisterhood? It's not far.

[02:09:41] Keep going down this road and you'll

[02:09:42] find Kasha inside the camp. Oh, and

[02:09:46] maybe you can kill a few more Fallen on

[02:09:47] the way.

[02:10:10] Do you require magical? Goodbye then.

[02:10:18] Salvaging. Nothing like the heat of the

[02:10:20] forge. E.

[02:10:23] [Music]

[02:10:35] Thank you for the coin, friend.

[02:10:45] [Music]

[02:10:48] Ah, you've returned. I trust you bring

[02:10:51] news of victory, son. The blood sworn

[02:10:55] were driven from the village, but Lree

[02:10:57] escaped. I see.

[02:11:00] Still, you've done well. This was never

[02:11:03] truly your fight, Outlander. If I

[02:11:06] remember, you came to this land in

[02:11:08] search of Aara. Yes. It is time the two

[02:11:11] of you met. Go to her and show respect.

[02:11:15] H. She may be the high priestess of the

[02:11:18] sisters of the sightless eye, but she is

[02:11:21] also like a mother to me. Oh, and don't

[02:11:25] fret about Lori. My rogues and I will

[02:11:28] handle her.

[02:11:32] Priestess Sakara, it is an honor. I've

[02:11:36] come with a dire request. Elder Cain and

[02:11:40] Chari believed you could help us find a

[02:11:42] world stone shard hidden in these woods.

[02:11:45] A shard of the world

[02:11:47] stone.

[02:11:49] Interesting. That certainly could be the

[02:11:51] source of our troubles. It seems the

[02:11:54] great eye has aligned our goals, my

[02:11:57] friend. As you have undoubtedly seen,

[02:12:00] the dark wood suffers at the hands of

[02:12:03] the blood sworn. Their leader Lri was

[02:12:06] once part of the sisterhood until her

[02:12:09] heart was

[02:12:10] broken. She rejected us and found

[02:12:13] someone else to accept her. A world

[02:12:16] stone shard could be the source of the

[02:12:19] new power they have acquired. Years ago,

[02:12:22] decad left me with a gift, a tome of

[02:12:25] herric origin.

[02:12:28] In truth, its strange magics were never

[02:12:31] meant for me. How fitting that he has

[02:12:34] sent you here to complete the circle. On

[02:12:37] your way to this camp, you killed

[02:12:40] several of those fallen demons, did you

[02:12:43] not? Their essence swirls about

[02:12:47] you. Yes, the tome is surely meant for

[02:12:51] you. Follow me if you would.

[02:13:00] [Music]

[02:13:12] Inspect the tome placed upon the altar.

[02:13:15] Let it reveal its secrets to you.

[02:13:20] [Music]

[02:13:26] [Applause]

[02:13:44] [Music]

[02:13:47] [Applause]

[02:13:58] The Horadric Bestiary is yours. As you

[02:14:02] defeat the monsters of this world, their

[02:14:05] essence will provide you both strength

[02:14:08] and knowledge. When you have collected

[02:14:11] enough essence, bring the tome to one of

[02:14:14] these altars, and you will be greatly

[02:14:18] rewarded. Now then, we must return to

[02:14:22] the task at hand. If you are to find

[02:14:25] your world stone shard, you will need

[02:14:28] help. Thankfully, we are not alone in

[02:14:32] this endeavor.

[02:14:36] [Music]

[02:14:38] Helmlia, your rescuer has

[02:14:46] returned. Ah, you're

[02:14:49] back. Good. Good. I didn't get a chance

[02:14:53] to hindr. It was the least I could do.

[02:14:56] Still, I am

[02:14:57] curious. What brought you here? The dark

[02:15:01] wood is quite a distance from your

[02:15:03] homeland, is it not? I it is and how I

[02:15:07] miss you,

[02:15:08] Odulra. But the corruption of nature in

[02:15:12] these lands cannot be ignored. I came

[02:15:15] here to commune with the great tree

[02:15:17] in it was there that I was

[02:15:21] captured. The dead tree teams with old

[02:15:24] magic. The bark whispered to me of a way

[02:15:28] to cleanse this corruption.

[02:15:30] Unfortunately, the ritual is complicated

[02:15:33] and I lack the strength to gather the

[02:15:37] resources. But perhaps you can help

[02:15:41] there. We must acquire native reagents.

[02:15:45] A crimson arax giant eye, a thorn from

[02:15:48] the largest of those blood flowers, and

[02:15:51] a branch of the darkest wood. Combined,

[02:15:54] the forest itself will reveal the truth

[02:15:57] to us.

[02:15:59] Now, the spider's eye and the thorn

[02:16:01] should be simple. Both can be found to

[02:16:03] the north. But the branch, well, the

[02:16:08] oldest trees here are where fallen make

[02:16:11] camp. Maybe we start with the other two.

[02:16:14] [Music]

[02:16:39] Hey, the cavern to the north.

[02:16:42] Yes, this looks exactly like the place a

[02:16:45] giant spider would hide.

[02:17:15] [Music]

[02:17:20] That's done. Then next is the blood

[02:17:23] flowers thorn. Emlio seemed to think it

[02:17:26] was close. Perhaps these wretched vines

[02:17:30] will lead me to it.

[02:17:34] [Music]

[02:17:50] That is quite the

[02:17:55] teacher is patient.

[02:18:00] Yeah.

[02:18:04] [Music]

[02:18:28] The balance is preserved.

[02:18:57] The vines grow thicker to the

[02:19:00] west. Huh. They must be nearby.

[02:19:12] charge. There we are. Where there is a

[02:19:15] blood flower of that, there are surely

[02:19:18] faults.

[02:19:32] Your corpses are mine.

[02:19:36] So the obedient hound of the

[02:19:39] usurpers marks at my door at

[02:19:46] last. Show this monster what it means to

[02:19:49] be the blood. Go kill or die for me.

[02:20:00] Blood obeys me.

[02:20:24] darkness. Blood obeys

[02:20:28] me. Blood returns to war. Do you see?

[02:20:34] Everything is

[02:20:36] mine. Even your victories hasten my

[02:20:39] return. The thorn is mine. Coated in the

[02:20:44] blood of the enemy. Emilia spoke of a

[02:20:47] branch of dark wood. The largest trees

[02:20:50] up to the

[02:20:51] south. She got there.

[02:21:25] better. Recharge.

[02:21:56] No, not yet.

[02:22:00] [Music]

[02:22:11] I need

[02:22:37] [Music]

[02:22:45] charging. I

[02:22:53] am

[02:22:56] [Music]

[02:23:03] delicious. Come

[02:23:25] on. That

[02:23:27] rumbling. Something's coming.

[02:23:46] Heat. Heat.

[02:24:11] That scent a bonfire that was my source

[02:24:15] of black and

[02:24:20] wood. Heat. Heat. Heat.

[02:24:48] The balance is

[02:24:59] [Music]

[02:25:01] preserved there. All three

[02:25:05] components. I pray the druid is well

[02:25:08] enough to perform his ritual.

[02:25:29] No, not yet.

[02:26:07] [Music]

[02:26:21] You've done it. Oh. Uh, ribs a little

[02:26:25] too sore for that. Come. The campfire

[02:26:28] will be our

[02:26:32] [Music]

[02:26:45] catalyst. They fail.

[02:26:47] I don't understand

[02:26:50] what happened. Did we get something

[02:26:52] wrong?

[02:26:54] No. No. The ritual should have worked.

[02:26:57] Each piece represents a part of the dark

[02:27:00] wood's condition. The flames should have

[02:27:03] revealed their connection. We are

[02:27:05] missing something. Akara, we could use

[02:27:08] your help. Could you? Now, it is nice to

[02:27:12] know that even at my age, my insight is

[02:27:15] still

[02:27:19] appreciated. Yes, a woman. Her wicked

[02:27:23] desires have perverted the nature of

[02:27:25] these

[02:27:26] woods. Only a magic equally as dark can

[02:27:29] bind your ritual.

[02:27:38] We would be blind without your wisdom,

[02:27:41] Akara. Well, if we're on my way to the

[02:27:45] great tree, I encountered a camper. If

[02:27:48] we're seeking a source of dark magic,

[02:27:51] that's the place we're Very well. H, no

[02:27:54] need to keep running around. Just meet

[02:27:57] at the tree of Inus. with all four

[02:28:00] components. We should be Oh, before you

[02:28:02] go, I asked Hess to make something for

[02:28:04] you. But you need to

[02:28:16] [Music]

[02:29:04] Ah, buddy. There you are. Here. All

[02:29:09] yours. Sure makes me wonder. Come on

[02:29:11] back if you need something.

[02:29:16] [Music]

[02:29:37] Huh?

[02:29:59] Nothing like the heat of the forge. E.

[02:30:02] Hello.

[02:30:04] [Music]

[02:30:33] Oh, I see. Hello.

[02:30:50] [Music]

[02:31:01] Nothing else I can help you with.

[02:31:26] Not yet.

[02:31:34] Recharging.

[02:31:42] We are not the end.

[02:31:50] [Music]

[02:32:25] Get out of here.

[02:32:32] [Music]

[02:32:51] enjoy yourself.

[02:32:53] [Music]

[02:34:00] Okay.

[02:34:03] [Music]

[02:34:05] Run, run.

[02:34:18] [Music]

[02:34:27] Oh god.

[02:34:29] [Music]

[02:35:08] Do you require magic? That was quite the

[02:35:10] find. Use it well, friend.

[02:35:16] [Music]

[02:36:00] Thank you for the coin, friend.

[02:36:28] That's amazing.

[02:36:56] Are

[02:37:03] you

[02:37:06] hell [ __ ]

[02:37:31] Cultists are the same ones who attacked

[02:37:33] with them. They must also be seeking the

[02:37:36] sh

[02:37:47] Recharging.

[02:37:53] Your master wishes to speak.

[02:37:59] [Music]

[02:38:03] The fragment of the eye, the world

[02:38:09] stone, and you shall have whatever your

[02:38:12] heart desires.

[02:38:15] My heart only desires one thing, and

[02:38:18] your precious fragment is hers. Deliver

[02:38:21] the stone or the burning hell to cleanse

[02:38:25] this world. Your best it. If you had

[02:38:30] such power, you'd be taking the stone,

[02:38:33] not asking for it.

[02:38:37] You have your answer. With the stone's

[02:38:40] power, even hell cannot stop her.

[02:38:46] [Applause]

[02:38:57] [Music]

[02:39:11] So the world don't show as with LR's

[02:39:14] mistress. The rogues and I will need to

[02:39:17] work together to face such power.

[02:39:30] Ember of the burning

[02:39:32] hells. It smolders with dark

[02:39:37] magic. I hope it will be

[02:39:39] enough to the tree. Then give it more

[02:39:43] time.

[02:40:07] [Music]

[02:40:10] Die and laugh.

[02:40:26] The blood sworn are attacking. Come

[02:40:28] here. Hold fast. I'm coming.

[02:40:34] You're all right. Good. For a moment

[02:40:38] there, I feared the worst. And with good

[02:40:41] reason. The damned blood sworn are

[02:40:43] giving us precious little time to waste.

[02:40:46] Still, you are able to get the final

[02:40:48] component. Now, this ritual will bridge

[02:40:52] my consciousness to the tree and the

[02:40:55] forest

[02:40:56] beyond. This magic is chaotic, ancient,

[02:41:00] the kind that do what you must.

[02:41:09] There at the tree. Just as Lri said,

[02:41:11] kill

[02:41:30] them. The balance is preserved.

[02:41:46] The tree, it's guiding my sight. I see

[02:41:51] the darkness infecting this land. An

[02:41:55] evil that has festered in the deep

[02:41:58] places. Your face,

[02:42:01] it's We have to stop this. Did I not

[02:42:05] warn this kind of magic

[02:42:09] scars? No, we cannot stop. The ritual

[02:42:13] awakened the power bound within the

[02:42:15] tree. It wants to be free. It will help

[02:42:19] us fight the corruption for a

[02:42:24] price. You have your bargain, Inifus.

[02:42:28] Banish the corruption infecting this

[02:42:30] wood and its people as promised.

[02:42:43] Ah, what's happening? It should have

[02:42:53] worked.

[02:42:57] Wait, it hurts inside me. Pulling the

[02:43:03] corruption. Friend, you must destroy it.

[02:43:06] It can be purged.

[02:43:28] It is done. Hemlier, heart. It is,

[02:43:33] but there is no cause for celebration.

[02:43:36] The forest will not be purged so easily.

[02:43:40] Not while the heart of its corruption

[02:43:43] remains. I could see it all now, friend.

[02:43:47] And it is terrible to

[02:43:51] behold. A blight seeps from the

[02:43:54] forgotten

[02:43:56] tower. At its roots lies a woman in a

[02:44:00] pool of stolen

[02:44:03] blood. Around her neck, a red stone

[02:44:07] pulses with a power older than the world

[02:44:11] itself. The vines whisper to me. They

[02:44:15] tell me of an

[02:44:17] abomination, a blood rose. Through the

[02:44:21] rose, the blood flows to her, feeds her.

[02:44:26] It must be cut down. I have to alert the

[02:44:30] sisters of the sightless eye. You will

[02:44:32] have your chance. The plants tell me a

[02:44:36] rogue is on her way here now. Enough.

[02:44:39] No, you're not. Not if you wish to

[02:44:44] survive

[02:44:45] this. We've been given a chance, but we

[02:44:50] must strike now. Kill the blood rose as

[02:44:55] long as it feeds her blood. The countest

[02:44:59] cannot

[02:45:00] die.

[02:45:05] And the

[02:45:07] rogues need you.

[02:45:20] Flavi Hemla just Haven't you heard?

[02:45:24] Kasha led a war party to attack the

[02:45:26] forgotten tower. I was returning to the

[02:45:29] encampment to rally the others when I

[02:45:30] saw what was There's nothing you could

[02:45:32] have done. Yes, and the blood sworn are

[02:45:36] fighting. Damn. The countest cannot die

[02:45:39] while the blood rose lives. I must reach

[02:45:42] Akara and the others lest the blood

[02:45:44] sworn take them as well. Head to the

[02:45:46] rose

[02:45:47] and the great

[02:46:24] The blood sworn are everywhere. This

[02:46:27] must be where the roads were ambushed. I

[02:46:30] pray Kashia is all right.

[02:46:57] [Music]

[02:46:59] Your grave

[02:47:01] beckons.

[02:47:27] Heat. Heat.

[02:47:35] The blood spawn are dragging the rose

[02:47:37] this way. This must be where the rose

[02:47:41] hides.

[02:48:46] [ __ ] No

[02:49:27] [Music]

[02:49:56] Heat. Heat.

[02:50:09] [Music]

[02:50:51] for you.

[02:51:06] Ben, you're hurt. Who did

[02:51:10] this? Where is Lri?

[02:51:13] The

[02:51:15] blood. The rose is drinking their

[02:51:19] blood. It has the others. I barely got

[02:51:23] away. Gods

[02:51:26] above. Listen, Leanne. I'm going in

[02:51:29] there and I'm going to kill that thing.

[02:51:32] But you will not survive if you come

[02:51:34] with me. Flavi is sending

[02:51:37] reinforcements. Hide and wait for them.

[02:51:41] Stay hidden. Keep

[02:51:44] going. Do what you need to. Someone's

[02:51:47] approaching. Feed their corpse to the

[02:51:49] road. Both your bloody rose and your

[02:51:53] mistress die tonight.

[02:52:15] So this abomination is what feeds the

[02:52:18] counters? Well,

[02:52:21] monstrosity, your end has come.

[02:52:48] Heat. Heat.

[02:53:16] What have you done? What have you

[02:53:20] done? The rose that withers.

[02:53:24] I should slay you where you stand, but

[02:53:26] I'm no fool. I will not chance losing

[02:53:29] and failing her again.

[02:53:32] No, no, no. She entrusted her blood to

[02:53:34] me. A gift to ensure her beautiful world

[02:53:37] came to

[02:53:38] fruition. It will be

[02:53:40] enough. But I can't have you

[02:53:43] interfering.

[02:53:51] Stand back and witness your

[02:54:00] failure. The

[02:54:02] mistress, I give back all that you

[02:54:04] bestowed upon me. Take

[02:54:07] everything. My life, my blood is

[02:54:13] yours. Let me stop

[02:54:16] you forever.

[02:54:19] Damn you, Lockery.

[02:54:36] Heat. Heat.

[02:55:02] It's

[02:55:03] done. I feel the blood once again.

[02:55:09] Rise my

[02:55:11] servants. Slay all who oppose my will.

[02:55:34] Heat. Heat.

[02:55:45] At least that creature will no longer

[02:55:46] poison the land. The Countess is

[02:55:49] vulnerable. Now is the moment to strike

[02:55:52] at the heart of the Forgotten Tower.

[02:56:01] [Music]

[02:56:14] Leen,

[02:56:16] Hemlier,

[02:56:18] Leen, dozens of our

[02:56:20] sisters, all of them have laid down

[02:56:23] their lives to prevent evil from

[02:56:26] returning. We cannot allow such

[02:56:29] sacrifices to be in vain.

[02:56:32] The blood rose is dead, but Lri gave up

[02:56:36] her life before I could stop her. The

[02:56:39] count then she must be slain. There is

[02:56:43] no other course, no other way. An evil

[02:56:48] like that cannot possess an artifact

[02:56:51] like the heart of creation.

[02:56:56] It will not be easy, but you must act as

[02:56:59] the heroes of sanctuary did. Join Kasha

[02:57:04] and the others at the Forgotten Tower

[02:57:07] and end the curse upon this land. The

[02:57:11] magic of the waypoint here will make

[02:57:13] your journey faster. Go, friend. This

[02:57:17] world depends

[02:57:25] John the blue.

[02:57:28] May the great eye watch over us all.

[02:57:41] Emlia, I don't know if your spirit

[02:57:45] anymore. I'm going to end this. Wish me

[02:57:48] luck.

[02:58:00] I must

[02:58:09] wait.

[02:58:20] Heat.

[02:59:10] [Music]

[02:59:12] Heat. Hey, Heat.

[02:59:24] Heat.

[02:59:44] patient.

[02:59:56] [Music]

[03:00:12] I don't

[03:00:18] [Music]

[03:00:31] Kasha and the rogues aren't here. They

[03:00:33] must already be inside.

[03:00:40] [Music]

[03:00:54] Beauty

[03:00:56] fades. It is impossible to

[03:01:00] escape. I will not submit to this truth.

[03:01:05] I am beyond the pitiful laws of tiny

[03:01:09] men. Their blood will serve me. Fulfill

[03:01:15] my purpose, my splendor. Reborn from

[03:01:20] their

[03:01:22] pain. And my beauty will never fade

[03:01:27] again.

[03:01:37] The tower is

[03:01:39] just I can smell the

[03:01:53] [Music]

[03:01:58] substantial.

[03:02:12] Heat. Heat.

[03:02:45] Die and rot.

[03:03:42] I must wait.

[03:03:53] Oh, how the light shall below.

[03:04:33] I must wait.

[03:04:42] Blood cannot be

[03:04:47] unspilled. You're too

[03:04:49] late. They're all around

[03:04:52] us. She's raised an

[03:04:56] army. The sisters don't have the

[03:04:59] strength to put this many down.

[03:05:03] Hope has abandoned

[03:05:27] us.

[03:05:49] Heat.

[03:05:57] Yeah. Heat.

[03:06:29] Death is an end. Feel the gate.

[03:06:34] They are pinned down. Move in my blood

[03:06:38] sworn. End this insurrection.

[03:07:07] Dead end. I'll have to find another way

[03:07:10] forward.

[03:07:47] The enemy has breached our defenses.

[03:07:49] Kick them from the mistress.

[03:08:34] Not

[03:08:38] yet.

[03:08:42] Heat.

[03:09:09] Heat.

[03:09:23] You die.

[03:09:52] Yeah. Heat.

[03:10:01] [Music]

[03:10:13] [ __ ] yeah.

[03:10:36] Place was my

[03:10:38] tomb. I did yours.

[03:11:02] was my

[03:11:05] turn.

[03:11:10] Yours is

[03:11:14] patient.

[03:11:24] Heat. Heat.

[03:11:47] She She's

[03:11:50] dead. It's

[03:11:56] in

[03:12:19] you. He has the reef.

[03:12:29] [Music]

[03:13:15] It is done and you are triumphant

[03:13:19] wherever.

[03:13:25] It is done. That object in your hand, a

[03:13:28] shard of the world stone.

[03:13:31] Yes. Its terrible power resurrected the

[03:13:34] countess. I will trust both you and Cain

[03:13:37] to deal with it then. Oh, and when you

[03:13:41] return to West March, please give Kane

[03:13:45] and Chie love. In the meantime, we will

[03:13:50] continue to ensure the blood sworn do

[03:13:52] not return. Should you ever require

[03:14:23] surprisingly enjoyable.

[03:15:21] Crown

[03:15:35] you. Heat. Heat.

[03:16:17] Do you require M? That was quite the

[03:16:20] find. Use it well, friend.

[03:17:11] Your corpses are

[03:18:39] Your corpses are mine.

[03:18:54] What could I do for you?

[03:19:02] No. Well, good luck out there. Need

[03:19:05] something reformed?

[03:19:07] [Music]

[03:19:50] a job well done. We will create

[03:22:10] No, not yet.

[03:22:31] is patient.

[03:23:38] Give it to me.

[03:29:31] The harvest begins.

[03:30:07] Not

[03:30:13] yet. Charge.

[03:37:59] Let us

[03:38:05] forge. You will return again. Legendary.

[03:38:42] Are

[03:38:45] you ready?

[03:38:49] [Music]

[03:40:06] There you are. Come stay a while. The

[03:40:11] two of us have much to discuss. Indeed,

[03:40:14] Kane. Once again, you were right. The

[03:40:18] shard was already in the hands of evil

[03:40:20] when I arrived. Many laid down their

[03:40:23] lives to aid us in reclaiming it. Such

[03:40:27] sacrifice. Each shard has only fallen

[03:40:30] into worse hands. It is far past time we

[03:40:34] were

[03:41:02] I should have guessed this would not be

[03:41:04] easy. Even the ancient Herodrim work

[03:41:07] together when dealing with shards of the

[03:41:09] world stone. My friend, I will need you

[03:41:13] to stand there. Outstretch.

[03:41:37] [Music]

[03:42:05] Fish.

[03:42:14] Yeah. Heat.

[03:42:22] [Music]

[03:42:39] King, are you hurt? I'm fine. But that

[03:42:43] that was not supposed to happen. The

[03:42:46] shards have been irrevocably corrupted

[03:42:48] by Bale's influence. No.

[03:42:53] No. Despair will do us. Why don't you go

[03:42:58] and see Charie? I know. Do not lose

[03:43:02] hope.

[03:43:09] There you are. I came as soon as I heard

[03:43:12] you were back. How was the trip?

[03:43:14] Exhausting to say the least. Kashia and

[03:43:18] the sisters of the sightless eye did ask

[03:43:20] me to send you their regards. Oh,

[03:43:22] they're alive. Oh, thank the great eye.

[03:43:25] Oh, it's so good to know they're

[03:43:27] well. And here, I thought I was the one

[03:43:30] bearing the good news. Remember the

[03:43:32] Elder statue in the palace courtyard?

[03:43:35] Well, your successes inspired the royal

[03:43:37] mages to

[03:43:40] [Music]

[03:43:58] They call it the challenge rift.

[03:44:00] Apparently, it connects to strange

[03:44:02] realms filled with

[03:44:04] monsters. Adventurers are already

[03:44:06] competing with each other to see who's

[03:44:08] the best at killing the things. That's

[03:44:10] interesting.

[03:44:12] Knew that would get you interested.

[03:44:14] Yeah, sure. You can consider it a test.

[03:44:17] You can also find some rare materials in

[03:44:19] there. When you're done, why don't you

[03:44:20] meet me at the shop?

[03:44:22] [Music]

[03:44:47] Even as small as they are, the shards

[03:44:51] still radiate. a corrupting power there.

[03:44:55] It should be safe enough to begin the

[03:44:58] ritual. Strange. This Hey, look who it

[03:45:02] is. The challenge rift went well, huh?

[03:45:05] If you found anything in there you don't

[03:45:06] need, we can salvage it and use the

[03:45:08] materials to upgrade your equipment. Oh,

[03:45:11] wait. Before I forget, I made you

[03:45:13] something. It's over there on the rack.

[03:45:16] Oh, speaking of that, most of Racka

[03:45:18] Square is now open for business. All

[03:45:20] around are usable vendors and merchants.

[03:45:23] Be safe. All right.

[03:45:25] [Music]

[03:46:19] What do you need, friend?

[03:46:21] [Music]

[03:47:02] You do the fighting, I'll do the

[03:47:04] forging.

[03:47:16] We have the finest goods the world over.

[03:47:31] [Music]

[03:48:14] New goods arrive all the time. We have

[03:48:16] the Hail and welcome to Winton's Grand

[03:48:19] Market. Officially certified by West

[03:48:22] March and a guaranteed fair trading

[03:48:24] ground. If you wish to buy or sell, we

[03:48:27] will glad. New goods arrive all the

[03:48:30] time.

[03:48:34] Adventurer over here. I think I saw you

[03:48:37] leaving Winton's place. Perfectly fine

[03:48:39] if you're looking for jewels and that

[03:48:41] sort of thing. But I know there's more

[03:48:43] to being an advent. I'll trade you for

[03:48:45] any silver hilts. the coin of the

[03:48:48] honorable knights of West March. Do good

[03:48:51] around here. Earn a few. He'll say, "If

[03:48:54] you're interested in browsing what I

[03:48:55] have available, I should check on Kain.

[03:48:59] Hopefully, he has learned more about the

[03:49:01] stones.

[03:49:09] [Music]

[03:49:34] Kane, how goes your research? Have you

[03:49:38] found anything to help us destroy the

[03:49:39] shards?

[03:49:41] In fact, I've made quite a breakthrough.

[03:49:44] Pouring through some of these ancient

[03:49:46] texts, I uncovered a man who knew more

[03:49:50] about the world stone than anyone. One

[03:49:53] of the original Herodrim named Zultan

[03:49:57] Cool. My ancestor Jared Ka documented

[03:50:01] his experiences with the man quite well.

[03:50:04] It seems Cool would experiment with soul

[03:50:08] stones in his spare time. Soul stones?

[03:50:11] Yes. Powerful artifacts intended to

[03:50:15] house the spirits of the prime evils.

[03:50:18] Apparently, they too in the end he was

[03:50:21] killed by his herodric brothers.

[03:50:24] Accounts differ as to how, but it is

[03:50:27] clear the Herodan made quite an effort

[03:50:29] to expune his knowledge from the world.

[03:50:33] Searching the world over for traces of a

[03:50:36] man who died centuries ago was no small

[03:50:38] feat.

[03:50:40] The task is arduous indeed. Fortunately,

[03:50:44] the Harodram's purge was not as thorough

[03:50:46] as they believed. I was able to unearth

[03:50:49] a few records that may help us. There's

[03:50:52] even a drawing of K.

[03:50:55] [Music]

[03:50:59] Sultan Cool's paranoia may benefit us.

[03:51:03] It seems he hid a number of archives

[03:51:06] throughout the world. My research shows

[03:51:09] at least one of his libraries survived.

[03:51:12] Buried beneath the sands of the Shassar

[03:51:15] Sea. That's beyond Calaldium. Yes, it's

[03:51:19] quite the journey. In order to reach

[03:51:22] Shassar, you're going to need to book

[03:51:24] passage on Well done, Kane.

[03:51:28] growing late. I should hurry to the

[03:51:36] [Music]

[03:51:53] tavern. Earned some hilts, have you?

[03:51:55] Well, you're in the right place.

[03:52:06] [Music]

[03:53:21] Honor is hard one and

[03:53:28] just fancy your challenge. You fell.

[03:53:34] [Music]

[03:53:38] Show your skill. Impress the right. Not

[03:53:41] everyone's got it.

[03:53:46] [Music]

[03:53:50] You afraid of the demons.

[03:53:55] [Music]

[03:55:29] Do you require magical? Goodbye then. Do

[03:55:32] you

[03:55:34] [Music]

[03:57:00] Don't believe

[03:57:12] requires a

[03:57:17] course. Death is

[03:57:21] patient. I need a corpse for

[03:57:23] that. I must wait.

[03:57:34] requires that

[03:57:46] ability. No, not yet.

[03:57:54] [Music]

[03:58:04] to the

[03:58:07] end. Give it time.

[03:58:14] [Music]

[03:58:46] I must wait. It

[03:58:49] seems without a core cannot

[03:59:25] [Music]

[03:59:44] No, I'm not getting

[04:00:04] Do we

[04:00:11] charge that ability?

[04:00:24] [Music]

[04:00:34] die. Come on.

[04:01:45] Without a cause.

[04:01:53] That

[04:02:03] requires

[04:02:12] heat. Heat. Heat.

[04:02:36] [Music]

[04:02:41] Heat. Heat.

[04:02:51] without

[04:03:00] fear not to the

[04:03:03] end. Not

[04:03:06] yet. That requires a corpse. I

[04:03:33] must not wait.

[04:03:55] Your corpses are mine.

[04:04:51] that sacrifice of

[04:05:11] Wow. Heat.

[04:05:24] for

[04:05:25] you. I'm

[04:05:40] It is not my time. It seems

[04:05:46] [Music]

[04:06:12] I need

[04:06:14] that.

[04:06:24] [Applause]

[04:06:28] [Music]

[04:06:34] Another heat.

[04:06:54] [Music]

[04:07:31] Careful.

[04:07:33] [ __ ]

[04:07:52] Heat. Heat.

[04:10:24] The great cycle continues onward.

[04:11:55] Heat. Heat. Heat.

[04:12:02] [Music]

[04:13:31] Heat.

[04:14:04] Yeah. Heat.

[04:14:28] It's not my time. It

[04:14:41] seems

[04:14:53] Of

[04:15:03] course. I must wait.

[04:15:34] Your souls will serve.

[04:15:45] Yeah.

[04:16:02] Heat.

[04:16:17] [Music]

[04:16:25] Heat.

[04:16:49] Heat.

[04:17:27] [Music]

[04:17:31] Heat. Heat.

[04:17:42] I'm

[04:17:51] [Music]

[04:18:06] going to la

[04:18:09] [Music]

[04:18:17] A bit bright.

[04:18:20] [Music]

[04:19:07] I'm looking to book passage for a voyage

[04:19:09] to the Eastern Lands. And a friend told

[04:19:11] me that I might find help in this

[04:19:13] tavern. Would you know anything about

[04:19:15] that?

[04:19:17] Your friend's a wy one, whoever they

[04:19:20] are. Yeah, you're in the right place.

[04:19:22] But the guy you're looking Huh? What was

[04:19:25] that noise? A god damn it. If they're

[04:19:28] starting a

[04:19:44] [Music]

[04:19:52] Thousand gold to whoever takes out the

[04:19:54] top

[04:19:56] one. Stop. Please. We only wanted to

[04:20:00] scare them into giving up the cold. Get

[04:20:02] out of here before the gods arrive. And

[04:20:05] don't look back.

[04:20:07] Letting them walk was a wise move.

[04:20:10] Pirates like that come and go. Never

[04:20:13] know when you'll be forced to work with

[04:20:14] them again. And it's not like the guard

[04:20:16] would have shown up in a place like this

[04:20:18] anyway. They seemed misguided but

[04:20:20] harmless. Besides, I'm actually here to

[04:20:23] find a captain willing to make the

[04:20:25] journey to the eastern letter.

[04:20:31] [Music]

[04:20:34] I see. So Kane's calling in his favor,

[04:20:37] eh? Ever heard of this? Of course I

[04:20:39] have. Didn't realize you had a death

[04:20:41] wish, though. I don't usually go that

[04:20:43] far out. But after this little spat, my

[04:20:46] men and I might need to spend some time

[04:20:48] outside the city. All right, you have a

[04:20:50] deal. Meet me at the dock when you're

[04:20:51] ready, and we'll set sail.

[04:21:00] [Music]

[04:21:08] You've made it. I take in my letter

[04:21:11] work. I wish you luck as you brave the

[04:21:15] unknown. When you return,

[04:21:20] Calaldium and Chessar beyond it, a long

[04:21:23] way from West March. Are you ready to

[04:21:25] take your lead? I am.

[04:21:34] The Shasar Sea drier than I'll make this

[04:21:38] easy, you you double crossing rat. Give

[04:21:42] me the map and maybe you live long

[04:21:45] enough to scurry you. Look at that. A

[04:21:48] stranger come out of nowhere to save

[04:21:51] you.

[04:21:52] Huh? I'm going to enjoy gutting you

[04:21:59] both. Not my time.

[04:22:15] Um, a little help, please.

[04:22:19] Who are they? That is a question no

[04:22:21] native would

[04:22:23] ask. Those brutes were the sand

[04:22:25] scorpions. Why don't you grab the key of

[04:22:28] Thiago and free me?

[04:22:43] You are amazing, friend. Now, not every

[04:22:46] traveler way laid by the scorpions has

[04:22:48] What brings someone like you to this

[04:22:51] forsaken desert? I'm looking for a

[04:22:53] library of an ancient mage. It is said

[04:22:56] to be buried beneath the dunes. Would

[04:22:59] you know anything about that?

[04:23:01] A little too forthright for these sands,

[04:23:04] friend. You never know who may be

[04:23:06] listening. But

[04:23:08] yes, welcome to the Shasser Sea. A more

[04:23:12] turbulent than the cursed place that may

[04:23:15] never

[04:23:27] die.

[04:23:45] Heat. Heat.

[04:23:53] You

[04:24:04] [Music]

[04:24:12] recharge. There they

[04:24:14] are. Better.

[04:24:48] Get out.

[04:24:52] The sand scorpions have never forgiven

[04:24:55] us for leaving

[04:24:57] them. The strength they lack. Come,

[04:25:01] you'll see. Where is everyone? It's not

[04:25:04] like the guards to be lying down on

[04:25:09] duty. You're there. What has

[04:25:12] happened? The Lacuni attacked again.

[04:25:15] Those damn beasts attack without end.

[04:25:18] Listen, friend. To find your library,

[04:25:20] you will need to speak to our leader,

[04:25:21] Tabri. And but hey, it's not all

[04:25:24] sandstorms and wasps. Sure, there are a

[04:25:27] few panther monster people in your way.

[04:25:30] ZV, the Lacuni are already at our gates.

[04:25:32] We need all the blades we can get. Of

[04:25:34] course, of course. Take my friend here

[04:25:36] and I will join you once I have taken

[04:25:39] care of this man's grievous wounds.

[04:25:42] Right, Zav? Whatever. Come this way,

[04:25:46] stranger.

[04:26:10] time. I must wait.

[04:26:16] Your corpses are mine.

[04:26:25] Give it more time.

[04:26:28] Scamper back to your dens. Nothing but

[04:26:31] death awaits your kind

[04:26:34] here. Requires a

[04:26:38] force. That ability is real.

[04:26:52] It is not my kind.

[04:26:56] You have either excellent or terrible

[04:26:58] timing, stranger. While I appreciate

[04:27:00] your aid, I do not know who you are.

[04:27:03] Your friend, Zof, I believe his name

[04:27:06] was, said I should speak with you. I'm

[04:27:08] looking for something buried beneath

[04:27:10] these sands.

[04:27:14] Friend is a strong word. If ZV sent you,

[04:27:17] he must see good omens in your arrival.

[04:27:20] Look around you. The amber blades are

[04:27:23] barely holding on against this threat.

[04:27:25] Much less that luck is all I can offer

[04:27:28] you,

[04:27:28] outsider. Leave and me here's I never

[04:27:32] fall upon you. Frank, over here this

[04:27:35] way.

[04:27:39] Let me guess. Dabri told you to leave.

[04:27:42] H that woman is sure.

[04:27:56] Let me guess. Listen, your problem is an

[04:28:00] easy one. She believes you are going to

[04:28:02] be a burden. Yeah. Several of our men

[04:28:04] were dragged away in the last attack.

[04:28:07] Save anyone still alive and kill the

[04:28:09] Luni pack leader.

[04:28:15] Oh, [ __ ]

[04:28:23] [Music]

[04:28:43] Not

[04:28:44] yet. He's not

[04:28:47] breathing. The lacun do not keep

[04:28:49] prisoners. It

[04:29:01] seems the

[04:29:03] valor is preserved.

[04:29:19] Of course

[04:29:26] I notic.

[04:29:37] is right. Aubrey won't believe me

[04:29:39] without proof the deed has been

[04:29:43] done. This is going to get messy.

[04:30:01] [Applause]

[04:30:05] [Music]

[04:30:26] Give it more

[04:30:35] time. Hey, look who's back. Oh, and

[04:30:39] anyway, Tabria just returned.

[04:30:45] You had best have a good reason for

[04:30:47] disturbing me again.

[04:30:51] [Music]

[04:30:54] Isn't it amazing, boss? We killed Alvas.

[04:30:58] Those lousy lacun were

[04:31:01] us. Considering it's our new friend's

[04:31:04] hands that are bespattered with blood,

[04:31:06] it isn't difficult to tell whe As for

[04:31:08] you, go and hang the beast's skin on my

[04:31:11] gate. Let those Mongols see its face

[04:31:13] every time they think about encroaching

[04:31:15] on my territory.

[04:31:23] Keep up the patrol. So, you have proven

[04:31:26] yourself to be quite the fighter,

[04:31:28] haven't you? ZV says you're seeking the

[04:31:30] library of Zultan,

[04:31:33] the scepter of Faher, an artifact once

[04:31:36] held by the rightful ruler of Shasar.

[04:31:39] Zv, take our friend to Pth, his

[04:31:42] guidance. Before you go, take this as

[04:31:45] proof of our pact. This gem.

[04:31:50] Oh, of course, boss. Look at that, my

[04:31:54] friend. Oh, a turmoline. A rare gift in

[04:31:58] these parts. Indeed.

[04:32:02] And what deal, Shan? Av here to repay

[04:32:06] your debts. Finally. A good one. Let's

[04:32:09] get past such tray, shall we? Oh, a gem,

[04:32:14] you say? Let me see

[04:32:17] it. Good color. A few

[04:32:21] inclusions. Keep an eye out for

[04:32:23] something.

[04:32:38] [Music]

[04:33:43] If you need more work, you know where to

[04:33:45] find me. Oh, look at you. You're so uh

[04:33:48] shiny. And honestly, I can't even see

[04:33:51] it. Did you

[04:33:56] even What can I do for you?

[04:34:03] [Music]

[04:34:08] A job well done.

[04:34:15] This relic actually appears to be

[04:34:17] genuine. Miracles do happen.

[04:34:22] Excuse me. Tombre sent me to speak with

[04:34:25] you about the scepter of Fah. What? The

[04:34:28] scepter?

[04:34:30] [Music]

[04:34:32] Where to look for it?

[04:34:34] Please, I know all about the scepter's

[04:34:37] history. What I don't think you

[04:34:39] understand is how impossible. Our

[04:34:41] forebears understood that deeds like

[04:34:43] King Fahers must never be repeated. We

[04:34:46] know where the three pieces are. It is

[04:34:48] obtaining them that is the fool's

[04:34:50] errand. Very well. If you cannot be

[04:34:53] dissuaded, the first map piece lies on

[04:34:56] the desk behind you.

[04:35:05] The chamber of

[04:35:07] wisdom. Very well.

[04:35:11] Your souls will serve.

[04:35:21] [Applause]

[04:35:35] Rafma blesses his own.

[04:35:48] [Music]

[04:36:16] Do you require have a safe journey,

[04:36:19] adventurer?

[04:36:25] [Music]

[04:36:51] Share on the old

[04:37:04] [Music]

[04:37:35] What can I do for you?

[04:37:40] [Music]

[04:38:09] A job well

[04:38:22] done.

[04:38:35] Heat. Heat.

[04:38:54] [Music]

[04:39:05] I

[04:39:12] am of course I cannot

[04:39:16] That ability must recharge.

[04:39:33] [Music]

[04:39:59] Look what I caught.

[04:40:06] [Music]

[04:40:13] Your fate is

[04:40:14] [Music]

[04:40:16] sealed. As I was saying, enjoy your trip

[04:40:20] back to the burning hells. You wait,

[04:40:23] you're no demon.

[04:40:26] No, I'm not. I assume you're the one

[04:40:30] responsible for this. proudly. There's a

[04:40:33] demon using illusion magic to sow chaos

[04:40:35] and feed upon the locals. I'm going to

[04:40:37] trap it and kill it. Now, stop talking

[04:40:40] and I'll free you.

[04:40:47] There. I suggest you leave this place as

[04:40:50] well. The only thing I found in there is

[04:40:52] death. Now get out of my way. I have a

[04:40:55] demon to hunt.

[04:40:58] Charming girl. If she's telling the

[04:41:01] truth, I'll need to be careful. But I

[04:41:04] cannot leave without the safety

[04:41:07] piece. That

[04:41:19] everything. The door is sealed. There

[04:41:22] must be a way to open it somewhere.

[04:42:03] Heat.

[04:42:15] Heat.

[04:42:52] Heat.

[04:42:59] Of course, I

[04:43:05] cannot

[04:43:07] wait. I

[04:43:14] will. No, not here.

[04:43:45] That monstrosity was guarding a scepter

[04:43:48] piece.

[04:43:50] No wonder so many died trying to obtain

[04:43:52] them.

[04:43:59] You're alive. I mean, of course you are.

[04:44:03] Of course. Just look at

[04:44:08] you. Requires a

[04:44:12] [Applause]

[04:44:15] course. Here's the next map. Uh, but the

[04:44:18] headpiece was buried along with Fah in

[04:44:20] the hopes no one would ever reach it.

[04:44:24] [Music]

[04:44:26] Don't worry. I'm just going to take a

[04:44:28] quick look in this chamber and make sure

[04:44:31] nothing strange was left

[04:44:42] behind.

[04:44:52] [Music]

[04:45:06] Heat. Heat.

[04:45:24] like I need a corpse for

[04:45:47] That heat.

[04:46:00] You're

[04:46:10] brave. No, not

[04:46:16] yet. Heat. Heat.

[04:46:23] [Music]

[04:46:48] has

[04:46:56] [Music]

[04:47:02] been

[04:47:10] Another corpse. I cannot

[04:47:33] for

[04:47:46] you. I need a horse for that.

[04:47:52] Your corpses are mine.

[04:47:56] You've arrived.

[04:47:58] You've

[04:47:59] arrived. You've

[04:48:03] arrived. Alluring, is it

[04:48:06] not? It's hard to believe. You aren't

[04:48:09] the first adventurer to come through

[04:48:11] here to speak with my

[04:48:13] people. Many have dared. Here, take

[04:48:17] this. A reward for your hard work.

[04:48:31] [Music]

[04:49:43] Be wary. Inside that tomb, the old

[04:49:47] kingdom hid many terrible

[04:49:50] secrets. Ones that prefer to remain

[04:49:55] hidden. Secrets buried in the sands.

[04:49:59] Shrouded in

[04:50:01] darkness, many an adventurer has

[04:50:04] attempted to retrieve the

[04:50:09] scepter. I don't need to explain what

[04:50:11] happened to them, do

[04:50:16] I? After

[04:50:20] all, the

[04:50:22] scepter is still buried in the sands.

[04:50:34] A foul magic lingers within these

[04:50:37] holes. If the scepter piece is still

[04:50:40] here, it lies in the deepest recesses of

[04:50:43] this tomb.

[04:51:06] [Music]

[04:51:19] Yeah, heat. Heat. Heat.

[04:52:01] is patient.

[04:52:11] Your corpses are

[04:52:24] mine.

[04:52:29] [Music]

[04:52:47] Heat. Heat.

[04:53:14] [Music]

[04:53:23] Heat.

[04:53:49] Heat.

[04:54:22] Do it with me.

[04:54:29] [Music]

[04:55:08] requires a

[04:55:11] course. Heat. Heat.

[04:55:43] Heat.

[04:56:09] requires. Another

[04:56:31] course that requires a

[04:56:36] course. Heat.

[04:56:50] [Music]

[04:56:55] Heat.

[04:57:09] Heat.

[04:57:22] [Music]

[04:57:43] Okay, you

[04:57:57] You must recharge.

[04:58:31] [Applause]

[04:58:44] samples. Heat. Heat.

[04:58:50] [Music]

[04:59:13] Heat. Heat.

[05:00:05] slaves. The dead will not be discerned.

[05:00:09] So, Cidus, defend your god.

[05:00:26] [Music]

[05:00:30] the new partner. There you go.

[05:00:33] [Music]

[05:01:08] Give it more time.

[05:01:24] Heat.

[05:01:35] Heat. Heat.

[05:02:02] The scepter is the

[05:02:05] master only. He is the sher of the

[05:02:36] Heat.

[05:02:52] Heat.

[05:03:26] Fail

[05:03:33] lost. But the

[05:03:36] master is

[05:03:42] safe.

[05:03:45] [Music]

[05:03:48] You

[05:03:50] [Applause]

[05:03:52] re the here's remains are

[05:03:55] gone. No matter. I have what I came here

[05:03:59] for. What else wants those scepter

[05:04:01] pieces? Riches to whoever splits them

[05:04:04] from the outsiders.

[05:04:33] I take it that was Veus. Yes, the leader

[05:04:37] of the sand scorpions and our rival for

[05:04:40] these accursed. I presume you have the

[05:04:42] headpiece.

[05:04:49] [Music]

[05:04:55] Huh? Of course you retrieved it. After

[05:04:58] all these years of struggling, we are so

[05:05:02] close to our

[05:05:03] goal. Only one piece rem.

[05:05:08] It says the light is hidden in darkness.

[05:05:13] some place called the prison of the

[05:05:17] scorpion. Others will

[05:05:27] [Music]

[05:05:50] Fear not the

[05:05:54] end time.

[05:06:00] That ability must

[05:06:18] be. Heat.

[05:06:22] [Music]

[05:06:42] Heat. Heat. Heat.

[05:07:16] This is the

[05:07:18] location, but it is no prison. The

[05:07:21] entrance must still be

[05:07:26] concealed. The water in the nearby pool

[05:07:29] is rushing away. That must be it.

[05:07:41] That

[05:07:53] requires heat.

[05:08:01] [Music]

[05:08:03] [Applause]

[05:08:15] Heat.

[05:08:21] Heat. Heat.

[05:08:49] [Music]

[05:09:12] A light hidden in the darkness.

[05:09:15] All that remains is to bring it to

[05:09:25] to you returned. And here we just come

[05:09:29] to assist

[05:09:32] [Music]

[05:09:39] you. The scepter of

[05:09:42] Faher. I can hardly believe it. You have

[05:09:45] given me the right to rule this land and

[05:09:49] more importantly provided us with a

[05:09:52] symbol that can unite our sky. The

[05:09:55] scepter is whole

[05:09:57] again. This moment will be remembered

[05:10:00] forever.

[05:10:01] [Music]

[05:10:05] Let a new light dawn upon the shastar

[05:10:08] sea.

[05:10:12] It's funny. When I met you, I told you

[05:10:14] these sands tend to devour hope. Now, it

[05:10:18] is time for me to fulfill my promise.

[05:10:21] Beth will provide you with access to the

[05:10:23] library of Zultan. Be safe and know that

[05:10:27] I may call upon your services again. You

[05:10:29] have been quite the partner.

[05:10:33] This way, we'll use the waypoint to

[05:10:35] reach Seth

[05:10:37] quickly.

[05:10:43] Our path leads by the sand scorpion's

[05:10:45] camp, so be wary.

[05:10:54] Need something reformed.

[05:10:56] [Music]

[05:11:01] Most appreciated. What could I

[05:11:09] [Music]

[05:11:19] A job well done. And what deal shall we

[05:11:22] make?

[05:11:27] [Music]

[05:11:35] Your patronage has been most

[05:11:37] appreciated.

[05:11:41] [Music]

[05:11:49] Do you require? That was quite the find.

[05:11:52] Use it well, friend.

[05:12:02] [Music]

[05:12:21] Sharon. Surprisingly enjoyable.

[05:12:30] [Music]

[05:12:37] A bit

[05:12:43] [Music]

[05:12:49] bright. Get

[05:12:56] [Music]

[05:13:17] out.

[05:13:47] [Music]

[05:13:58] And what

[05:14:01] dear? May Faher's eye never fall upon

[05:14:04] you.

[05:14:05] [Music]

[05:14:31] free.

[05:14:53] Heat. Heat.

[05:15:09] I must

[05:15:20] wait. We need to get out of here before

[05:15:22] more of them alive.

[05:15:34] [Music]

[05:15:48] The library isn't far, but there were

[05:15:52] too many warnings. It seems even the

[05:15:55] Horaj

[05:16:03] [Music]

[05:16:06] the harvest. If I believed in it, I

[05:16:09] would wish you luck, friend. Still, you

[05:16:12] did survive Fah's tomb. So perhaps you

[05:16:15] stand a chance. And don't worry about

[05:16:18] us. The Amber Blades will retake Shasar.

[05:16:21] Allow me

[05:16:23] to. Let the path be open.

[05:16:40] This is it. The library of Zultan

[05:16:45] Cool. He warned me you would come. And

[05:16:49] after

[05:16:50] centuries, here you

[05:16:53] are. I am the curator of this library.

[05:16:58] And I do not

[05:17:01] accept. I am no

[05:17:03] thief. Spare me. Your trespass is at its

[05:17:08] end.

[05:17:19] Heat. Heat.

[05:17:39] The ages made me so weak to die at the

[05:17:44] hands of

[05:17:47] I have no intention to kill you. I came

[05:17:51] to this library seeking knowledge, a way

[05:17:54] to end the threat posed by the shards of

[05:17:57] the world stone.

[05:18:00] How

[05:18:01] whimsical. Well, if such knowledge

[05:18:04] exists, the master would have indeed

[05:18:07] stored it away here in his private

[05:18:10] archives. Unfortunately for you, I

[05:18:13] cannot reach set location.

[05:18:17] The library has been ravaged by time and

[05:18:21] has fallen into

[05:18:22] disrepair, but it could be restored. If

[05:18:27] you truly are no thief, then perhaps you

[05:18:31] will prove your innocence.

[05:18:34] What do you have? First, I must regain

[05:18:37] my

[05:18:38] strength. And a myriad of monsters stand

[05:18:42] between us and the

[05:18:44] statue. Heat. Heat.

[05:19:04] The sands above us burst nightmares of

[05:19:09] perish. Our destination is just ahead.

[05:19:13] Let's hurry this along, shall we?

[05:19:38] Almost there. statue of

[05:19:41] reserve

[05:19:54] father. Here we

[05:19:56] are. Wait, something is a miss.

[05:20:02] That orb the statue is holding should be

[05:20:05] teeming

[05:20:06] with all three runes have been removed

[05:20:10] from the

[05:20:15] [Music]

[05:20:18] pedestal. Obtaining the runes may

[05:20:20] require some wit to

[05:20:23] accomplish. Good luck.

[05:20:43] [Applause]

[05:20:47] That tablet holds one of the ruins.

[05:20:49] There's an

[05:20:51] inscription. I awaken when nine flames

[05:20:54] burn bright. Making one as day makes

[05:20:58] others as night. It's some form of

[05:21:02] death.

[05:21:03] [Music]

[05:22:08] This is making my head

[05:22:10] ache. Perhaps there's a clue

[05:22:13] somewhere. Or maybe the curator knows a

[05:22:16] way past this.

[05:23:05] [Music]

[05:28:26] has been.

[05:28:36] I am renewed.

[05:28:44] So that was fast.

[05:28:46] The second rune is powering the magic

[05:28:48] circle just over there. Defeat its

[05:28:51] guardian. It's

[05:29:05] yours.

[05:29:20] Heat. Heat.

[05:29:46] Well

[05:29:51] done. The final rune rests in a world

[05:29:55] that is a reflection of ours. Try not to

[05:29:59] lose the perspective in

[05:30:15] there.

[05:30:17] Require it

[05:30:22] more. Heat. Heat.

[05:30:41] [Applause]

[05:30:54] Where am

[05:30:55] I? This place

[05:30:58] is The magic of this place is affecting

[05:31:02] the rune. It's

[05:31:05] ethereal. Wait, something happened when

[05:31:08] I touched it. Light.

[05:32:34] Excellence. The damage you've done to

[05:32:36] me.

[05:32:42] Oh, it's good to feel warmth again. Now

[05:32:47] to put this last rune in its place.

[05:33:15] My strength returns to me. I can feel

[05:33:19] the magic coursing

[05:33:22] already. Now for our

[05:33:25] arrangements in order to restore the

[05:33:27] light. Only once the core is

[05:33:38] [Applause]

[05:33:44] A history of flame

[05:33:47] convergence looking for

[05:34:13] [Music]

[05:34:18] The central core serves as the heart of

[05:34:20] the library and maintains its defenses.

[05:34:30] [Music]

[05:34:58] Just as I sought the core

[05:35:03] is awaken

[05:35:07] It didn't

[05:35:09] work. I hate it when things don't obey

[05:35:12] my

[05:35:15] command. Oh, yes, of

[05:35:19] course. Remember what I said?

[05:35:23] Not

[05:35:25] those immediately.

[05:35:36] That's over with.

[05:35:38] Has it been damaged? No. Something is

[05:35:42] escaping us. The core powers all of the

[05:35:45] mechanism. Our only course is to obtain

[05:35:48] the master's journal. It It is held

[05:35:52] within the well of knowledge to the west

[05:35:55] beyond the magical barriers that

[05:35:57] restrict.

[05:36:00] Hurry back if you

[05:36:02] [Music]

[05:36:16] would.

[05:36:37] Heat. Heat.

[05:36:54] Your grave beckons.

[05:37:20] [Music]

[05:37:36] Heat.

[05:37:40] [Applause]

[05:37:47] [Music]

[05:37:59] Heat.

[05:38:26] Another heat.

[05:38:34] Come

[05:38:53] here.

[05:38:54] [Music]

[05:39:12] Heat. Heat.

[05:39:30] That requires a

[05:39:43] corpse. Die and rot.

[05:39:48] [Music]

[05:39:53] Of course I

[05:40:06] cannot that requires a corpse. Not yet.

[05:40:16] Death is inevitable.

[05:40:21] A seeker of

[05:40:23] knowledge. Yet knowledge has a heavy

[05:40:29] cost. And what would that be?

[05:40:38] Acquire the knowledge of the ages and

[05:40:42] become a slave to

[05:40:44] it. Abandon the life and share in our

[05:40:49] eternal burden.

[05:41:16] The balance is

[05:41:22] preserved. That image resembles the

[05:41:25] core, but the rest is a mystery. Perhaps

[05:41:29] the curator can make this clearer.

[05:41:36] [Music]

[05:42:28] Everybody

[05:42:51] The fated.

[05:43:22] Your corpses are

[05:43:27] mine. Heat. Heat. Heat.

[05:44:06] [Music]

[05:44:11] You have the

[05:44:20] all. Oh, well, this poses a

[05:44:32] [Music]

[05:44:34] problem. The core, much like the

[05:44:37] master's other creations, appears. You

[05:44:40] see, the master was of the Aniad clan,

[05:44:44] and transmutation was his

[05:44:46] specialty. Myself, sadly, making the

[05:44:50] spark that brings life to his creations

[05:44:53] is beyond mine. To the east is the

[05:44:57] case. Obtain the remains of a golem.

[05:45:00] Extract the essence of life. Reanimate

[05:45:03] the

[05:45:04] core. A simple plan.

[05:45:31] Assistance required.

[05:46:00] [Music]

[05:46:05] I am renewed.

[05:46:09] Curiosity. Who are you?

[05:46:13] Why

[05:46:14] assist

[05:46:23] me

[05:46:24] [Music]

[05:46:26] proud come

[05:46:29] by in a how

[05:46:34] exciting a valuable item.

[05:47:00] Um the middle

[05:47:05] [Music]

[05:47:28] The balance is preserved.

[05:47:39] Discussion needed confusing. What? No.

[05:47:44] The curator at

[05:47:46] curator's

[05:47:48] companion. Follow

[05:47:51] companion hidden

[05:47:53] enclave

[05:47:56] nearby. Life essence. The spark of life

[05:48:01] in this one is fading. I don't think

[05:48:04] this will be enough. I'm sorry for your

[05:48:08] losses. Unfortunately, the

[05:48:13] life option an advanced golem that has

[05:48:16] already gone

[05:48:18] mad. A necessary flattery. Glad

[05:48:23] farewell.

[05:48:26] Give great

[05:48:32] regard

[05:48:48] gratitude. Heat. Heat.

[05:49:19] I must wait. It

[05:49:28] seems not yet.

[05:49:35] Your corpses are mine.

[05:49:57] I must

[05:49:58] bleed. That requires a purpose.

[05:50:24] Your grave beckons.

[05:50:29] [Music]

[05:50:47] I got a corpse. I

[05:51:05] can't hold

[05:51:15] I need

[05:51:16] aid. I'm healed.

[05:51:38] Not

[05:51:53] yet. I

[05:52:03] cannot still recharging.

[05:52:06] That requires a

[05:52:18] corpus. Die and rot.

[05:52:41] [Music]

[05:53:33] None are welcome in the master's

[05:53:37] shelter.

[05:53:55] I

[05:54:09] cannot. This golem was certainly more

[05:54:12] advanced than the others. Hopefully the

[05:54:14] chaos these alignment accepted.

[05:54:18] Destination chaos engine. Magical

[05:54:21] energies are nearly depleted.

[05:54:24] Teleportation is one

[05:54:27] way. Transfer to chaos engine begins. It

[05:54:31] worked. Now let's see if this chaos

[05:54:35] engine can create the spark of life.

[05:54:41] The remains are inside, yet the engine

[05:54:44] is

[05:54:45] inactive. Those glowing orbs have to be

[05:54:48] the key.

[05:54:49] [Applause]

[05:55:05] more

[05:55:12] time. They're still coming. I best

[05:55:16] activate the other orb

[05:55:18] quickly.

[05:55:20] Better. They're trembling in the stone.

[05:55:23] More of the damned will be here soon and

[05:55:26] in a greater

[05:55:28] number.

[05:55:44] Heat. Heat.

[05:56:15] Your corpses are mine.

[05:56:27] It pulses as if it were a beating heart.

[05:56:32] And the

[05:56:37] curious need a corpse for

[05:56:42] that requires a corpse.

[05:56:50] I that ability must

[05:56:56] recharge without a

[05:57:09] corpse. My health is restored. The

[05:57:12] balance is

[05:57:16] preserved.

[05:57:31] Heat. Heat.

[05:57:54] 90. Your grave beckons.

[05:58:10] My health is restored.

[05:58:43] Do you have the life

[05:58:48] essence? You have done it.

[05:58:52] Remarkable. Now the rest is up to me.

[05:59:15] that have stymied my progress for so

[05:59:19] long. It is

[05:59:21] done. I am in control once more. Even

[05:59:26] the master's ark. I will go on ahead and

[05:59:29] search for the tome. Meet me.

[06:00:10] [Music]

[06:00:16] must recharge.

[06:00:38] to walk these halls once

[06:00:41] more. Here we

[06:00:44] are. He's a cow of destruction.

[06:00:53] [Applause]

[06:00:58] One more

[06:01:10] time. The balance is preserved.

[06:01:18] This toone is no light

[06:01:23] reading. This toone is no light

[06:01:27] reading. It will require a space less

[06:01:31] filled with cockroaches.

[06:01:34] Head through here, turn left, and

[06:01:37] descend the

[06:01:39] stairs. Destroying the world stone is a

[06:01:43] curious endeavor. It seems better to use

[06:01:47] such power, don't you

[06:01:50] think?

[06:01:54] Still, although you're done, perhaps

[06:01:57] you'll share a story with

[06:02:00] me. This is the place. One moment,

[06:02:08] please.

[06:02:18] Help

[06:02:35] me. This tale is from

[06:02:38] before. Before Baal led his

[06:02:42] army, before he breached the gates of

[06:02:47] Cesron and put the barbarian city to the

[06:02:52] sword before, a thousand times

[06:02:56] before to the time of the

[06:03:00] Haradrim who faced the lord of

[06:03:05] destruction, imprisoned him within. in

[06:03:09] the soul

[06:03:10] [Music]

[06:03:18] stone. The

[06:03:20] haradim, you've arrived. Sultan K and

[06:03:24] Tal Rasha are already fighting below.

[06:03:27] Here, I'll open the There you are. The

[06:03:31] demons are trying to keep us from the

[06:03:33] prime evil. Join me in foiling their

[06:03:36] efforts, would you?

[06:03:53] I'm

[06:04:04] here. Heat. Heat.

[06:04:35] I am

[06:04:39] renewed. That requires

[06:05:14] Not my time to see.

[06:05:23] Welcome my friends. Come help me down

[06:05:26] these demons. Then we can pursue their

[06:05:29] master.

[06:05:48] What's that?

[06:06:21] Death is an end.

[06:06:25] Those who seek

[06:06:29] destruction shall find

[06:06:49] it.

[06:07:05] Keep the demon lord. I will deal with

[06:07:09] veil

[06:07:10] minions. We've been weakened. We must

[06:07:13] use the soul stone.

[06:07:26] What is the strength of man against hell

[06:07:31] itself?

[06:07:34] Damn it. All that remains is a

[06:07:37] sword. Zultan, take the others through

[06:07:40] the valley below. I will teleport to

[06:07:43] bear in bias time. That brazen fool has

[06:07:47] no idea what he's

[06:07:50] doing. Come with me

[06:07:59] quickly. Bale will overwhelm Tarasha if

[06:08:02] we terry. As appealing as that notion

[06:08:05] is, we cannot fail in this endeavor. So,

[06:08:09] are you ready to fight through a

[06:08:11] ravenous horde of demons?

[06:08:37] will balance the SC

[06:08:41] One second.

[06:09:12] Fear not to the

[06:09:19] end.

[06:09:32] Of course, I cannot

[06:09:52] The balance is preserved.

[06:10:14] Your ally

[06:10:17] suffers. Join him in his pain.

[06:10:43] Winner and

[06:10:55] die. Fear not the

[06:10:58] end. Heat.

[06:11:18] Got

[06:11:29] to tear you apart. Limb from

[06:11:37] limb. Do not lose. Faithful. Victory is

[06:11:41] still within our crash.

[06:12:02] Keep

[06:12:03] fighting. I will deal with those

[06:12:06] minions.

[06:12:22] to the shield. It will protect us from

[06:12:24] the flames.

[06:12:57] I must win.

[06:13:01] Keep fighting the demon lord. I will

[06:13:04] heal with Bale's minions.

[06:13:08] to the shield. It will protect us from

[06:13:10] the flames.

[06:13:48] It will protect us from the plast.

[06:14:13] Yes, but it will not hold. The prime

[06:14:16] evil's spirit is straining at its cage.

[06:14:18] The shard will not contain him for long.

[06:14:22] Then we must obtain another soul stone.

[06:14:27] Are you mad? Only an archangel's weapon

[06:14:30] can cleave the world stone. And this

[06:14:33] sliver will not make it to

[06:14:35] Ariat. Tyial, he will have answers. I

[06:14:39] assure you, Bale will not roam free

[06:14:42] again. But we can have this conversation

[06:14:44] later.

[06:14:54] It was it was beyond

[06:14:58] belief. I partook in the battle against

[06:15:00] the demon lord Bale. I saw Zultan cool.

[06:15:04] He he spoke with

[06:15:07] Torasha saying only an archangel's

[06:15:09] weapon could damage the world stone.

[06:15:12] Well, that makes things complicated.

[06:15:16] The master seemed to only know of two

[06:15:18] such weapons gracing Sanctuary with

[06:15:21] their presence. One was Eldru, a weapon

[06:15:25] belonging to

[06:15:26] Tyel. Good luck getting him to let go of

[06:15:31] it. The other, however, was called

[06:15:36] Yeler. It was bequeased by an angelic

[06:15:39] artisan to her child and hidden away by

[06:15:43] the ancient. I assume that's where

[06:15:46] you'll want to go next.

[06:15:51] Yes. Stay close to me,

[06:16:00] Woody. Now that I have full control of

[06:16:03] the library, I can teleport you wherever

[06:16:06] I wish. This terminus, you have proven

[06:16:09] trustworthy enough to come and go at

[06:16:11] your discretion. But should you choose

[06:16:13] to leave, do it quickly. I

[06:16:32] abolish

[06:16:35] experience. This must Hey, you there.

[06:16:38] Come here moment.

[06:16:40] It's not often an adventurer shows up in

[06:16:42] this port without even a ship docking.

[06:16:45] You certainly don't look like the rabble

[06:16:48] coming for work. Whoever you are, you're

[06:16:50] going to want to check in with Talva.

[06:16:53] He's not a fan of Don't get too far

[06:16:56] behind, huh? Do you have a safe journey,

[06:16:58] adventurer?

[06:17:10] [Applause]

[06:17:19] There is always more to

[06:17:22] comprehend. I cannot carry anymore. What

[06:17:25] could I do for you?

[06:17:34] A job well done. What could I do?

[06:18:07] Get

[06:18:28] out.

[06:18:32] [Music]

[06:19:06] Most appreciated. Need something

[06:19:08] reforged?

[06:19:11] Let us speak. What? Let us speak.

[06:19:40] [Music]

[06:19:47] Do you seek?

[06:20:26] [Music]

[06:20:54] Pray. Pray.

[06:21:04] [Music]

[06:21:52] Rafma blesses his own.

[06:22:48] [Music]

[06:25:45] Please, sir. The elder is terribly ill.

[06:25:49] Then go speak to Cadius. My

[06:25:51] responsibility is the port and the goods

[06:25:53] that go through it. Now go. I'm done

[06:25:55] with this. That village will be the

[06:25:57] death of

[06:26:00] me. You there. I make it a point to know

[06:26:03] every face that steps into my port. And

[06:26:06] yours I don't recognize. So what

[06:26:09] business is it that brings another

[06:26:11] adventurer to the bofen? I'm looking for

[06:26:14] an ancient temple upon this island. Do

[06:26:17] you know of it? Ah, now I get it. You're

[06:26:20] with that wizard then. Explains your

[06:26:22] sudden appearance. At least can't fathom

[06:26:25] why you lot are interested in that

[06:26:26] place. Nothing. The temple is to the

[06:26:29] southeast. Easy to find. Good luck

[06:26:32] getting in, however.

[06:26:42] Is there anything I can help you?

[06:26:48] [Music]

[06:26:55] Finished. Let me know if you need

[06:26:57] anything else.

[06:27:13] Get

[06:27:27] out. Huh?

[06:27:40] 90

[06:27:45] that

[06:27:51] ability. No,

[06:27:54] not that.

[06:28:24] Death is inevitable.

[06:28:44] [Music]

[06:28:53] Heat. Heat.

[06:30:24] [Music]

[06:31:04] You must be the wizard Talva spoke of.

[06:31:07] It seems we are both seeking entry into

[06:31:09] the temple of Namari. You arrived just

[06:31:12] in time. Then supposedly we stand before

[06:31:15] an altar that summons the temple's

[06:31:17] guardian, Namari. And

[06:31:20] I The altar should come to life and

[06:31:23] summon

[06:31:26] Namari.

[06:31:27] [Music]

[06:31:35] After untold honored Namari, I am Jyn

[06:31:40] from the great aisle of Shanzai. I have

[06:31:42] traveled the world searching for your

[06:31:44] ancient texts. And I seek an angelic

[06:31:48] weapon hidden within your temple. We

[06:31:50] need its power to destroy the corrupted

[06:31:53] shards of the world stone before they

[06:31:55] fall into the clutches of the burning

[06:31:57] hells.

[06:32:04] If what you say is true, this is indeed

[06:32:08] a dark

[06:32:09] time. But has no one told you? What

[06:32:12] stands before you is no temple? This is

[06:32:15] a prison.

[06:32:18] Sargoth, the desoiler of life, has been

[06:32:21] imprisoned inside for

[06:32:23] millennia. My soul was bound to this

[06:32:26] place to ensure the dark summoner never

[06:32:30] escaped. But eternity is a long time.

[06:32:34] The power of the Nephilim has waned, and

[06:32:37] his connection to the Burning Hells has

[06:32:39] only grown stronger.

[06:32:41] Keep return the beacons and help me

[06:32:44] eliminate Sargo before he unleashes

[06:32:47] untold havoc upon this world.

[06:32:51] That explains why the altar was so

[06:32:53] difficult to

[06:32:54] activate. Three missing

[06:32:57] beacons. You know, on my way here, a

[06:33:00] pirate was trying to sell some artifacts

[06:33:02] he likely stole from the temple. That

[06:33:05] may be a good place to

[06:33:07] start. What do you say? interested in

[06:33:10] saving the world. The pirate was just

[06:33:13] outside the port when I last saw him.

[06:33:15] Let's try there.

[06:33:19] [Music]

[06:33:52] beacons. Huh? Maybe I know

[06:33:58] something.

[06:34:03] Our friend here is willing to dulge some

[06:34:06] information for a price. I have some

[06:34:09] experience. I'll pursue this lead if

[06:34:11] you'll go speak with Talva.

[06:34:14] [Music]

[06:34:16] Help. Fishes are attacking the port.

[06:34:49] Not

[06:34:50] yet. My wound is man.

[06:35:02] More

[06:35:05] time without a close.

[06:35:23] Save me. I'll give you anything. I need

[06:35:26] more

[06:35:27] time. I need to go. I

[06:35:34] need to

[06:35:48] recharge through each other.

[06:36:01] [Music]

[06:36:06] Lousy fetishes. Every damn creature on

[06:36:09] this island ought to be exterminated if

[06:36:11] you ask

[06:36:12] me. Still

[06:36:15] information. three beacons of incredible

[06:36:17] m a few times. But like most things from

[06:36:21] that temple, misfortune, one relic was

[06:36:23] bought by an explorer years ago. Don't

[06:36:26] think the man ever made it off the

[06:36:28] island. The other is in a village to the

[06:36:30] east, but it sounds like that.

[06:36:54] [Music]

[06:39:13] I speak for the sea. You are still young

[06:39:18] to the waters.

[06:39:21] What offering have you

[06:39:23] brought? Listen more closely to the

[06:39:26] waves.

[06:39:57] Your

[06:40:02] grave. I will be here.

[06:40:18] More of those fetish

[06:40:20] demons. They are bold. I'll give them

[06:40:30] that. Heat. Heat.

[06:41:07] Your corpses are mine. Are you

[06:41:10] Kadius? Tell the silver tongue.

[06:41:15] Requires a corpse.

[06:41:28] Are you Katie?

[06:41:30] Cursed. Nonsense. Fools always claim

[06:41:34] what they don't under. If you're hoping

[06:41:36] to help the village, we should join.

[06:41:40] [Applause]

[06:41:50] There a

[06:41:51] villager guards. They must have floated

[06:41:54] from up

[06:41:57] river. Still

[06:41:59] recharging. And I need a for

[06:42:18] that. See that? That's no magic. That's

[06:42:23] toxin. That body came from the village

[06:42:26] farther up the river. Relat.

[06:43:09] is upon me.

[06:43:18] Fear not the end.

[06:43:24] I

[06:43:41] will

[06:43:43] heat up.

[06:44:11] Ice and the beacon isn't even

[06:44:15] here. Perhaps it lies in the elers's

[06:44:18] home.

[06:44:20] Do you see this?

[06:44:24] I'm going to search for the village

[06:44:25] elder's home.

[06:44:28] Fortunes with us. Someone will have

[06:44:31] survived.

[06:44:33] Who? Who goes there? A thief here to

[06:44:38] steal the beacon?

[06:44:42] It doesn't matter.

[06:44:55] Aarat, why?

[06:44:59] Why? No, you

[06:45:03] meat. Stop this. Forgive me. But the

[06:45:08] beacon won't let me.

[06:45:16] Give it more time.

[06:45:33] Owens. Oh, how could that be done? That

[06:45:37] thing in your hand. Did he have it? Yes,

[06:45:42] it's one of the beacon. No, the beast

[06:45:45] you killed did thus to him. But that

[06:45:48] beacon glows with what a cruel twist of

[06:45:51] fate. Kadius, this isn't the only

[06:45:55] beacon. Talva mentioned another. The

[06:45:59] fetishes. Those wretched demons have

[06:46:02] gotten more bold lately.

[06:46:07] The great cycle continues.

[06:46:30] Shadows

[06:46:35] running.

[06:46:55] Heat. Heat.

[06:47:50] [Music]

[06:47:52] [Applause]

[06:48:03] Heat. Heat.

[06:48:15] [Applause]

[06:48:20] without I cannot

[06:48:46] Give it more time.

[06:48:58] I must wait.

[06:49:02] The

[06:49:05] balance

[06:49:12] preserved that requires.

[06:49:18] [Music]

[06:49:21] Please help us. They still have GI and

[06:49:24] the others. The fetishes are

[06:49:25] slaughtering everyone they captured from

[06:49:27] the port. Please

[06:49:37] [Applause]

[06:49:54] Please get me over here.

[06:49:57] [Music]

[06:50:22] Your corpses are mine.

[06:50:27] [Music]

[06:50:32] I'm alive. I'm glad I could help, but I

[06:50:35] need to ask you a few questions before

[06:50:37] we No. No. No one sees the chieftain and

[06:50:40] lives. They've been taking people back

[06:50:42] into the rapids for god knows what

[06:50:44] purpose. We were about to be

[06:50:47] next. If you're looking all right, I'll

[06:50:50] go put an end to

[06:50:53] [Music]

[06:51:05] death. Watch out.

[06:51:14] [Music]

[06:51:33] It

[06:51:36] seems to

[06:51:42] [Music]

[06:51:48] Give it more time.

[06:52:23] I need a corpse for that.

[06:52:27] [Music]

[06:52:42] My health

[06:52:49] is fear not to the end.

[06:53:03] Together we will do what must be done.

[06:53:37] Okay. Okay.

[06:53:56] [Music]

[06:54:02] We grow ever stronger.

[06:54:06] [Music]

[06:54:34] Please, no. Have mercy.

[06:55:14] [Music]

[06:55:21] at

[06:55:22] last. But where is the

[06:55:24] chieftain? H that raft is the only way

[06:55:28] forward, it

[06:55:31] seems.

[06:55:57] Without a corpse, I cannot.

[06:56:01] I must wait.

[06:56:19] Chapter 5 of

[06:56:33] My wounds

[06:56:54] The raft is

[06:56:55] stuck and there are reinforcements.

[06:57:00] Now, if I can just avoid the fire long

[06:57:12] enough, undone by their own

[06:57:24] ambition. Heat. Heat. Heat.

[06:57:46] This cycle continues

[06:57:48] onward. Death

[06:57:52] claims. The land is prison.

[06:58:29] Warm

[06:58:30] flash strong spirit.

[06:58:34] The second beacon is mine.

[06:58:38] I wonder

[06:58:51] how

[06:59:03] the worthy hands

[06:59:18] [Music]

[06:59:22] Have a corpse for

[06:59:32] that.

[06:59:40] [Music]

[06:59:48] Heat.

[06:59:55] Heat. Heat.

[07:00:23] Give it more

[07:00:24] time. That requires a

[07:00:28] corpse. Fear not the end.

[07:00:35] [Music]

[07:00:50] that charge without a corpse. I cannot

[07:01:24] There you are. My negotiations went

[07:01:27] poorly, but I was able to find out that

[07:01:30] the pirate leader keeps the relics

[07:01:32] they've stolen aboard his ship.

[07:01:46] [Music]

[07:01:56] Rotten little fish creatures. One of the

[07:01:59] pirates claimed Rodri treats these

[07:02:01] things like pets.

[07:02:10] [Music]

[07:02:16] O. Let's have a look around, shall

[07:02:19] [Music]

[07:02:25] we? No luck. Let's take a look at his

[07:02:28] desk, then. And it's a mess, of

[07:02:37] course. How can someone be this

[07:02:39] disorganized and still function?

[07:02:42] Whatever. I think I have something here.

[07:02:44] Apparently, Rodri locked away the beacon

[07:02:46] in his private stash. The text mentioned

[07:02:55] steal it from a pirate. A rather daring

[07:02:58] way to ensure your death.

[07:03:27] more

[07:03:34] time. Your soul will serve.

[07:03:54] I hope the cursed thing kills your

[07:03:58] birth.

[07:04:17] Well, that's one way to obtain a beacon.

[07:04:19] I assume you

[07:04:30] [Music]

[07:06:09] Heat.

[07:06:16] Heat. Heat.

[07:06:57] I got I cannot go.

[07:07:19] [Applause]

[07:07:24] My wound is

[07:07:31] man I'll get

[07:07:39] [Applause]

[07:08:02] Do we

[07:08:09] each time

[07:08:40] without one more

[07:08:42] time. Your souls

[07:08:48] will

[07:08:49] die and rot.

[07:09:16] How may my knowledge help? Have a safe

[07:09:18] journey, adventurer.

[07:09:20] [Music]

[07:09:33] Need something reformed?

[07:09:40] A job well done. Do you

[07:09:46] [Music]

[07:10:22] What could I do for you?

[07:10:28] [Music]

[07:11:22] most appreciated.

[07:11:32] [Music]

[07:11:57] Is there anything I can help?

[07:12:14] If you change your mind, I'll be

[07:12:28] here. Surprisingly enjoyable.

[07:13:04] [Music]

[07:14:34] [Applause]

[07:14:37] That requires a

[07:14:42] No, not yet.

[07:15:05] [Applause]

[07:15:10] That ability must charge.

[07:15:24] Go ahead and place the beacons. I'll

[07:15:26] cast the spell to summon

[07:15:33] [Music]

[07:15:38] her. We've returned and I can feel the

[07:15:42] beacon. Come. Our opportunity.

[07:15:46] Jin of Shamsai, you must take my place

[07:15:49] at the altar. Less Sargo break the seal

[07:15:52] before we are ready.

[07:15:54] It will be my honor. Good luck in

[07:16:03] there. Sargo betrayed

[07:16:06] us for his terrible

[07:16:09] crime. He was imprisoned for eternity.

[07:16:16] Or so we

[07:16:20] believed. When I faced him again,

[07:16:24] something had

[07:16:25] changed. His rage had

[07:16:28] grown, granting him terrifying

[07:16:32] power. I fought with all my

[07:16:37] strength. Everything I

[07:16:40] had, I failed.

[07:16:43] You must

[07:16:46] [Music]

[07:16:52] not. Sargo's prison lies in the depths

[07:16:55] of the temple. But even here, I can feel

[07:16:58] his foul magics at

[07:17:00] work. The spirits of my are under his

[07:17:04] control. They will rise against us.

[07:17:07] Persevere and ahead.

[07:17:31] [Applause]

[07:17:36] How my soul aches at the sight of this

[07:17:39] once joyous place.

[07:17:41] Now devoid of life and forgotten.

[07:17:45] Wait, no. We're not alone. Restless

[07:17:48] spirits surround us. Champion, ready

[07:18:05] or not.

[07:18:13] The barriers that block us also serve to

[07:18:16] hold back his power. When one is

[07:18:18] breached, the others bear the

[07:18:21] strain. As Sargo's bonds weaken, his

[07:18:24] power to summon deankind will only grow

[07:18:27] stronger. Be ready.

[07:18:45] There is a summoning beyond this

[07:18:47] barrier, hero. Kill the mages and the

[07:18:50] ritual will end.

[07:19:02] That

[07:19:17] is heat.

[07:19:25] seems.

[07:19:36] Well done, champion. I am activating the

[07:19:39] gateway to the final chamber. Go and do

[07:19:43] what I could not. End Sargo.

[07:19:48] So, this is Namari's last hope. A pale

[07:19:53] shade of our kind's former

[07:19:56] glory. Come then, bear witness to my

[07:20:03] return. Let's see how you handle the

[07:20:06] biting chill of the

[07:20:10] abyss.

[07:20:12] Bleed,

[07:20:14] freeze, and shatter.

[07:20:26] Heat. Heat.

[07:20:44] Siege engine of hell.

[07:21:02] Heat.

[07:21:12] Heat. Heat.

[07:22:11] As was

[07:22:12] promised,

[07:22:14] you will not stand my way.

[07:22:30] Heat. Heat.

[07:23:39] Lend me your

[07:23:42] strength.

[07:23:44] What?

[07:23:46] Nothing.

[07:23:48] Only

[07:24:01] darkness. He

[07:24:03] has reforge that which is broken in you.

[07:24:19] You're back and with both your dagger

[07:24:21] and Namari's tomes, no less. I owe you a

[07:24:25] great deal, friend. But I need to take

[07:24:27] these back to Shanai right away. I won't

[07:24:31] be. I too must

[07:24:34] [Music]

[07:24:46] return. Without a corpse, I

[07:24:48] cannot. No, not yet.

[07:25:15] Give it more time.

[07:25:30] without a corpse. I cannot not

[07:25:38] yet. I

[07:25:51] must die and rot.

[07:25:58] Death is quite the teacher. It's you,

[07:26:02] huh? Had a feeling you'd be back.

[07:26:06] [Music]

[07:26:21] Do you require

[07:26:26] Let us speak a

[07:26:45] [Music]

[07:26:49] one. Need something reformed.

[07:27:20] [Music]

[07:27:56] Most appreciated.

[07:28:00] Need some gems cut?

[07:28:07] If you change your mind, I'll be here.

[07:28:13] [Music]

[07:28:19] [Applause]

[07:28:31] [Music]

[07:29:51] Do you seek?

[07:30:05] [Music]

[07:30:18] Is there anything I can help you with?

[07:30:20] If you change your mind, I'll be here.

[07:30:31] [Music]

[07:30:36] [Applause]

[07:30:45] Without a cross, I can

[07:31:17] Die and rot.

[07:31:34] Heat. Heat.

[07:32:01] Fear not to the end.

[07:32:09] [Music]

[07:32:43] [Applause]

[07:32:55] Never

[07:32:59] mind.

[07:33:08] Heat. Heat.

[07:33:47] Death is inevitable.

[07:33:51] [Applause]

[07:34:01] Heat. Heat.

[07:34:21] [Music]

[07:34:29] Your corpses are mine.

[07:34:48] Not

[07:34:54] yet. This should be the

[07:34:57] place. Time to take a closer look.

[07:35:07] The cycle of

[07:35:20] [Applause]

[07:35:26] continu. This one may be worthy, but it

[07:35:29] is too soon to tell.

[07:35:34] [Applause]

[07:35:38] worthy of. You're heading in the right

[07:35:42] direction. Ahead lies an

[07:35:51] [Music]

[07:36:02] Soon you will understand.

[07:36:42] Heat. Heat.

[07:37:05] [Music]

[07:37:36] Welcome back, friend. I can only assume

[07:37:39] this means you finally found what we've

[07:37:42] been looking for.

[07:37:46] Indeed,

[07:37:47] Cain.

[07:37:49] Behold your

[07:37:53] mirror.

[07:37:54] Oh,

[07:37:57] astonishing. Only once

[07:38:00] before have I been graced with seeing

[07:38:03] the

[07:38:05] craftsmanship of this is indeed an

[07:38:10] object of holy power.

[07:38:13] To think an old man like me would ever

[07:38:18] hold such a thing with the dagger as

[07:38:22] catalyst. The ritual should not

[07:38:25] fail. The time has come. Now then, I

[07:38:31] believe after all this

[07:38:34] tribulation, you deserve the honor.

[07:38:38] Destroy the

[07:38:40] shards once and for

[07:38:43] [Music]

[07:38:54] all. Free shards expuned from this world

[07:39:00] and safe from the clutches of hell.

[07:39:04] [Music]

[07:39:07] I could practically burst out into

[07:39:10] [Laughter]

[07:39:18] song. Please

[07:39:24] don't. In truth, I understand the

[07:39:27] feeling. Kane, this moment has been hard

[07:39:30] [Music]

[07:39:33] one. Yes.

[07:39:35] But let us not forget, there are still

[07:39:40] more shards out there. While you were

[07:39:43] away, I was able to define the location

[07:39:46] of a fourth stone to the northeast on

[07:39:50] Mount Zane, not too far from Ariat

[07:39:54] itself.

[07:39:55] [Music]

[07:40:00] Unfortunately for us, Rem's ship isn't

[07:40:04] ready to set sail. However, this cryptic

[07:40:09] letter did arrive with your name upon

[07:40:12] it. It

[07:40:15] [Music]

[07:40:23] seems Heat. Heat.

[07:40:30] [Music]

[07:41:08] What do you need, friend?

[07:41:11] [Music]

[07:41:17] Be safe. All right.

[07:41:19] [Music]

[07:41:48] As it has been, so shall it

[07:41:52] be. You are

[07:41:54] powerful, filled with a strength only

[07:41:57] suffering can provide.

[07:42:00] Place the timewn

[07:42:15] scroll.

[07:42:18] I can't keep my eyes.

[07:42:23] Standing in the ancient city of Corvvis,

[07:42:26] Deodessa the builder bestowed the

[07:42:29] eternal crown upon her son

[07:42:32] Kion. Fueled by the artifacts power,

[07:42:35] Kion formed the immortals and swore to

[07:42:39] protect Sanctuary from the burning

[07:42:43] hells. But he would not do so unwatched.

[07:42:48] Knowing that power corrupts, Deodessa

[07:42:51] charged her daughter Akiba with a heavy

[07:42:54] burden, it would be her job to ensure

[07:42:58] the immortals were forever worthy of

[07:43:01] this gift. Should they ever fall to the

[07:43:04] burning

[07:43:05] hells, and her shadows would take their

[07:43:09] place as the defenders of

[07:43:11] [Music]

[07:43:13] sanctuary. This cycle is eternal.

[07:43:17] Since the time, as you will come to

[07:43:20] learn, they are the immortals and the

[07:43:25] shadows. Visit the historical archavist.

[07:43:59] Okay.

[07:44:06] [Music]

[07:44:24] Haha. Yes. Your reputation precedes you,

[07:44:27] friend.

[07:44:28] [Music]

[07:45:10] Honor is hard one and just deeds are.

[07:45:13] Welcome here for tales of West March.

[07:45:16] For you, I can share the deep truths

[07:45:21] firsthand.

[07:45:34] For the need is

[07:45:37] [Music]

[07:45:39] great. That scroll is only found by

[07:45:43] those truly capable of defending

[07:45:46] sanctuary. But power can lead to

[07:45:48] corruption or sloth.

[07:45:52] If you know how to fight demons without

[07:45:55] inviting corruption,

[07:45:58] [Applause]

[07:46:01] [Music]

[07:46:05] visions of us all, future and past, bear

[07:46:11] witness.

[07:46:14] The

[07:46:15] immortals bestowed with righteous power

[07:46:19] by Deodessa the

[07:46:22] builder. Their charge to defend century

[07:46:27] against the burning

[07:46:30] hells. To use their strength to keep the

[07:46:33] relentless demons at

[07:46:35] [Music]

[07:46:37] bay. To be a beacon of hope and light.

[07:46:42] But victories are temporary, and the

[07:46:45] immortals can never relent or

[07:46:48] yield. Even if all hope seems

[07:46:52] lost, they must find the courage to

[07:46:56] stand defiant for all

[07:47:02] [Applause]

[07:47:02] [Music]

[07:47:07] time. Do you know now why you

[07:47:10] called? I did not know either before I

[07:47:14] bore the

[07:47:30] crown. They do not find you worthy of

[07:47:33] the power and for that alone they will

[07:47:37] kill.

[07:47:39] But they do not know you. Not

[07:47:42] true. Show

[07:47:47] them. Banish your

[07:47:50] fear. You have proven

[07:48:04] yourself.

[07:48:21] Kneel death is

[07:48:38] shatter.

[07:48:47] They were wrong.

[07:48:54] Now return.

[07:49:04] Are you back with me?

[07:49:06] Good. Curiosity is an important first

[07:49:09] step into a lot. Remember, we are but

[07:49:12] one side of the coin.

[07:49:18] [Music]

[07:49:34] The wall's quite a marvel, isn't it? So

[07:49:38] many

[07:53:45] don't bite.

[07:53:49] [Music]

[07:53:58] Welcome to my own little slice of the

[07:54:00] wilds.

[07:54:12] Good choice. Have a look around. Most

[07:54:16] things in here don't bite.

[07:54:19] [Music]

[07:54:30] Who just browses

[07:54:32] [Applause]

[07:54:35] [Music]

[07:55:16] Ah! Ah!

[07:56:34] [Music]

[07:57:16] Have a look around. Most things in here

[07:57:18] don't

[07:57:22] bite. Who just

[07:57:24] browses? I'm joking.

[07:57:46] in chatting with the unspoken. Normally,

[07:57:49] access to the Court of Whispers is

[07:57:51] restricted to our members only, but

[07:57:54] we'll make an exception for you.

[07:58:24] Akiba, daughter of Deodessa. founded the

[07:58:28] shadows. Though she is gone, depart.

[07:58:37] You are my guest. You think you have

[07:58:39] what it takes to walk this

[07:58:41] path. You must work unseen. Hidden. Many

[07:58:46] say they want to protect others. We test

[07:58:50] the

[07:58:51] immortals. We ensure they are

[07:59:00] Prepare

[07:59:06] yourself. A dark burden

[07:59:09] given and a hidden force

[07:59:13] created. One that could step up should

[07:59:16] the mightiest immortal

[07:59:18] fail. the shadows. Constant challengers

[07:59:22] to the wouldbe defenders of

[07:59:25] sanctuary. They would test the

[07:59:27] immortals, looking for weakness and

[07:59:31] apathy. Led by Akiba, the shadows would

[07:59:35] overthrow the

[07:59:36] immortals when the time was

[07:59:40] right. But even in victory, she knew her

[07:59:44] watch had just begun.

[07:59:47] For this is an eternal cycle.

[07:59:57] The battle hall of a great hero plagued

[08:00:00] by doubters. He My brother was a great

[08:00:04] hero unlike any before. The

[08:00:08] strongest, the wisest, the most

[08:00:11] dedicated.

[08:00:15] Bring down the

[08:00:17] immortal. Reclaim the eternal

[08:00:31] crown.

[08:00:35] Shatter

[08:00:41] Neo's corpse.

[08:00:54] It had to be done. Good that you did not

[08:00:58] hesitate. Should the immortals become

[08:01:00] unworthy of their

[08:01:02] station, return.

[08:01:16] [Music]

[08:01:25] And now you know the truth. The are the

[08:01:29] ones making sure the immortals never

[08:01:31] become corrupt. Rocken. Yes. Though Aka

[08:01:36] and Kion are long dead, there are others

[08:01:38] who can help you decide. You may simply

[08:32:35] Hey there. It's good to see you.

[08:32:48] Goodbye. Hey there. Good.

[08:32:53] [Music]

[08:33:10] I hope that can

[08:33:17] help. Ah, yes. Welcome to my

[08:33:22] establishment. Feel free to peruse the

[08:33:25] lesser merchandise as

[08:33:27] well. Ah,

[08:33:30] yes. Ah,

[08:33:34] yes. Feel free to peruse the Oh, hello.

[08:33:38] [Music]

[08:34:17] I'm quite proud of the work there

[08:34:19] actually. Hello. How can I help you

[08:34:22] [Music]

[08:34:27] today? Oh, I see. Well, please come

[08:34:31] again.

[08:34:33] [Music]

[08:35:10] You're back.

[08:35:11] They are skilled at fighting

[08:35:13] demons and each other. Yes. Thankfully,

[08:35:18] everything has Thank you.

[08:35:24] [Music]

[08:36:31] Heat. Heat.

[08:37:28] That requires a corpse.

[08:37:55] I need a caution.

[08:38:22] better.

[08:38:28] That ability

[08:38:38] charge. Give it more

[08:38:40] time. Of course, I

[08:38:44] cannot

[08:38:54] war. Heat. Heat.

[08:39:29] Give it more

[08:39:31] to

[08:39:38] [Applause]

[08:39:42] that. Heat. Heat.

[08:41:39] Heat.

[08:41:40] [Music]

[08:41:42] Heat.

[08:42:08] Heat.

[08:42:13] Together we will do what must be done.

[08:42:27] A new partner.

[08:43:01] the the

[08:43:02] Frank. Stain your weapons with blood and

[08:43:22] [Music]

[08:43:24] return. Heat. Heat.

[08:43:34] [Music]

[08:44:17] I know you love

[08:44:22] [Music]

[08:45:46] No secret. Glad to be of service, my

[08:45:49] friend.

[08:45:51] [Music]

[08:46:30] Let us forge.

[08:46:38] [Music]

[08:47:38] Ah, there you are. The old man said

[08:47:40] you're looking for passage to Mounts of

[08:47:42] Vain.

[08:47:46] [Music]

[08:47:56] A corpse and freshly killed as well.

[08:48:00] Whatever caused this attack

[08:48:03] must sound like combat ahead.

[08:48:20] traveler and a wellarmed one at that.

[08:48:24] The Khazra have grown aggressive. I see

[08:48:26] your point. A good question, but one

[08:48:30] that is not mine to answer.

[08:48:41] We have come to speak with your captain.

[08:48:45] Monks from the temple. Open the gates.

[08:48:49] The village is lost.

[08:48:51] Captain, our men are not fairing much

[08:48:54] better. We need new options or we will

[08:48:57] be forced to abandon our

[08:48:59] post. Veridani monk. Unbelievable.

[08:49:04] We were hoping the monastery might send

[08:49:06] us aid, but we'd expected acolytes, not

[08:49:08] someone of your position.

[08:49:11] Our peoples may have had their

[08:49:12] differences, kept, but on this mountain,

[08:49:16] when any one of us suffers, we all share

[08:49:18] the pain. Tell us of the Kazra. The

[08:49:21] nearby village was overrun. We've

[08:49:24] gathered those we could, but the Kazra

[08:49:26] have occupied the village. Akarat knows

[08:49:29] what they're doing to those who survived

[08:49:30] the attack. And now beasts assail our

[08:49:34] gates. We need your

[08:49:37] help. With the two of you, the light may

[08:49:40] have given us a chance, but the Kazra

[08:49:43] swarm against us from two separate

[08:49:45] fronts. We will need to deal with both

[08:49:47] if we are to

[08:49:49] survive. If the rumors about a single

[08:49:51] monk being with a battalion of men hold

[08:49:53] true, I would prefer her to guard the

[08:49:55] fort. With her help, we can cut off the

[08:49:58] Kazra in the village from their

[08:50:00] reinforcements.

[08:50:10] So, we isolate the Kazra in the village.

[08:50:12] That would allow a small group to clear

[08:50:15] out the rest. Bold. I like

[08:50:20] it. Bold plans are all we have

[08:50:23] left. If the monk guards us from the

[08:50:26] north, you and I can fight through the

[08:50:28] village, adventurer. But we need to move

[08:50:31] quickly. The gods here are barely

[08:50:33] holding their own.

[08:50:35] The Goatman are at the gates to arms.

[08:50:46] Cavaler got this far

[08:50:48] inside. Reach the gate of course.

[08:50:59] No, not yet. Without a corpse.

[08:51:14] Are you all right? No, they took the

[08:51:17] others. Those damn things emerged from

[08:51:20] the village so quickly, we barely had

[08:51:22] time to react.

[08:51:25] They were taken

[08:51:27] alive and we have no time to be wasting.

[08:51:32] Agreed. You two pull further back and

[08:51:34] defend the gate. Use the path to limit

[08:51:36] the effectiveness of their numbers.

[08:51:38] We'll be back soon. Hopefully, we're

[08:51:43] friends. It's been days since we fled

[08:51:46] the village. Stay alert. Who knows what

[08:51:48] we'll find in there.

[08:51:58] The Kazra have always been a

[08:52:02] threat. One before. Something has

[08:52:06] changed.

[08:52:11] Finally, this is a fresh wound. He must

[08:52:14] have tried to escape. God damn

[08:52:17] it. Voice.

[08:52:19] Ra,

[08:52:21] help. I'm hid under some debris.

[08:52:31] Well, thank the blessed light you two

[08:52:32] arrived.

[08:52:34] Vney, he distracted them and I was able

[08:52:38] to take shelter. Grin is we're still

[08:52:41] alive. Five. There were five of us. The

[08:52:46] Khazra were dragging us toward some kind

[08:52:48] of sacri vor managed to break us free

[08:52:51] but the others weren't as lucky.

[08:52:56] Then there's a chance

[08:52:59] there. We'll faint the [ __ ] Then

[08:53:02] there's a chance they're still

[08:53:05] alive. That's weird. He's

[08:53:08] alive. That requires a

[08:53:11] corpse. He's patient.

[08:53:22] Be careful. The circle is a

[08:53:41] summoning without

[08:53:51] I don't understand how this is

[08:53:53] happening. The Kazra are primitive. This

[08:53:56] kind of magic should be beyond their

[08:54:02] capabilities. I've seen things like this

[08:54:04] one before. Once in Woreram, another in

[08:54:08] the dark

[08:54:09] wood. This sigil belongs to the cult of

[08:54:12] damnation.

[08:54:13] And each time I've seen it, they were

[08:54:16] bringing the foul minions of hell into

[08:54:18] this world. I see no sign of the others.

[08:54:22] Whatever's going on, we're not going to

[08:54:24] find answers here. Let's inform the

[08:54:27] captain.

[08:54:33] This is

[08:54:51] patient.

[08:54:55] Death. I need

[08:55:10] a

[08:55:11] [Music]

[08:55:26] Heat. Heat.

[08:56:10] [Music]

[08:56:23] Heat. Heat.

[08:57:00] [Music]

[08:57:07] Heat. Heat.

[08:57:22] You've returned. Great. Vaughn and weir

[08:57:25] fell. The others were taken. It seems

[08:57:28] the Kazer was sacrificing villagers to

[08:57:30] create a summoning ritual in the

[08:57:32] village. It's a kind of magic I've only

[08:57:35] seen wielded by cultists.

[08:57:39] summoning. So that is the secret behind

[08:57:41] the Kaza seemingly endless onslaught.

[08:58:16] Die.

[08:58:18] Stay back, friend. Another attack could

[08:58:22] come possibly.

[08:58:24] We learned the kaza I'm going to save.

[08:58:31] Stay back, friend. Possible. A shard.

[08:58:35] No, that's not possible. I know

[08:58:37] precisely where they are. Still, I share

[08:58:39] your concerns. We need to find out. I

[08:58:42] cannot leave here, but you can.

[08:58:45] Investigate the Kazra den. Put an end

[08:58:48] more Kazra warriors. Go ahead. I'll take

[08:58:51] care of

[08:58:56] [Applause]

[08:59:04] That's

[08:59:15] You

[08:59:43] never

[08:59:51] Heat. Heat.

[09:00:18] Not yet.

[09:00:39] Thank you. Ellis is trapped further

[09:00:41] inside. Please find him.

[09:01:07] We know this one. The

[09:01:16] shaker. Heat. Heat.

[09:01:41] All at once.

[09:01:48] By flesh be

[09:01:50] born. By blood find life. Let the damn

[09:01:55] serve their

[09:01:59] lord. Our power is nearly spent. The

[09:02:03] portal will not hold here.

[09:02:10] Death. Then your purpose has been

[09:02:13] served.

[09:02:16] You must be the Dravk these cultists

[09:02:21] keep shouting for. Yes, I am. And you

[09:02:25] must be the shard seeker. You cannot

[09:02:28] help Oza or these people. No, you will

[09:02:33] fail at reaching the stone.

[09:03:08] This symbol, it's the same as in the

[09:03:11] village. The cultists are never cause

[09:03:15] attacks. But why expend this effort? He

[09:03:19] mentioned Oza's name.

[09:03:22] Come

[09:03:40] here.

[09:03:52] He's patient.

[09:04:00] Your corpses are mine.

[09:04:20] Heat. Heat.

[09:04:44] You've

[09:04:47] returned. No more.

[09:04:52] You've returned. Indeed, the ritual is

[09:04:55] no more. The Kazra were being by a man

[09:04:58] named Dravik. He seemed Dravik. He was

[09:05:03] waiting for me. I haven't seen him in a

[09:05:06] long time.

[09:05:08] Yes, he made that quite Damn it. Drac is

[09:05:12] a Veridani monk just like I am. But he

[09:05:15] is rash and impulsive.

[09:05:18] There must be a trail

[09:05:19] somewhere. Kale,

[09:05:24] right?

[09:05:28] Ever since the Zakarun crusade was

[09:05:30] defeated, Mount Zane has been covered in

[09:05:33] mist. They are the perfect place to

[09:05:47] hide. Heat. Heat. Heat.

[09:06:10] Death is the end.

[09:06:39] Heat. Heat.

[09:06:51] My pack is full

[09:06:53] enough. The fog is unrelenting and

[09:06:56] night. Eyes may be deceived, but land

[09:06:59] itself always bears the scars of our

[09:07:02] actions. Z, the mantra is working.

[09:07:06] Friend, I need you to be my feast while

[09:07:09] I commune with the mountain.

[09:07:12] I am overburdened.

[09:07:27] No, not

[09:07:39] yet. The Kazra are weak and fearful.

[09:07:43] They will bow before the Lord of

[09:07:47] Damnation. Eliminate the sons of Rakis.

[09:07:51] And the monastery stands alone against

[09:07:54] hell's might.

[09:07:56] There, the spirit orb is complete. The

[09:07:59] mountain's memory is long, and it will

[09:08:01] guide us to Draic. Come, follow.

[09:08:22] Hundreds of years ago, fought back the

[09:08:26] invaders from

[09:08:27] weapons. This battlefield is the cursive

[09:08:39] The spirit world has stopped. There must

[09:08:42] be more the god he wishes to

[09:08:44] see. While I mean once

[09:08:49] more charge me.

[09:08:56] I must

[09:08:58] wait. My health is

[09:09:02] restored. Give more time.

[09:09:08] Then let this sacrifice be the first of

[09:09:12] many. There is no price I will not pay

[09:09:16] for his. Yes, my lord. I can hear you

[09:09:22] now. The blood ritual pierced the veil.

[09:09:26] At long last, tell me what I must do.

[09:09:32] Dravik, what bargain did you make?

[09:09:35] Quickly, follow the orbs once more.

[09:10:06] I need a call for that. Be cautious. The

[09:10:09] dark magic lingers here. What's that? Up

[09:10:11] ahead. There on the bridge.

[09:10:25] A thousand and one curse is upon you.

[09:10:37] Drawic I must wait. It

[09:10:44] seems that ability must recharge.

[09:10:52] No, not yet.

[09:10:58] [Music]

[09:11:02] Search the cave thoroughly. Draw killed

[09:11:05] the acolyte outside and left a trap here

[09:11:08] in there must be a reason why.

[09:11:25] No space left. Roza, look at this. No,

[09:11:29] but it does not surprise me. Much of

[09:11:32] what the Zakaroon built upon the mount

[09:11:34] has been lost to the mist. You're right.

[09:11:37] The map showed the chapel at the center

[09:11:39] of the battlefield.

[09:11:52] Give it more time.

[09:12:29] The flame of hell leaves not even ash.

[09:12:37] That requires a corpse. I must wait. It

[09:12:43] seems the fire. Put it

[09:12:54] out. This abandoned chapel served as

[09:12:58] someone's

[09:12:59] study. Look at all this

[09:13:02] research. Was Dravik working in secret

[09:13:04] this long?

[09:13:24] I never knew he'd fallen so far. He

[09:13:27] became distant after his brother. Don't

[09:13:30] do that to yourself.

[09:13:37] I never knew he'd fall. Don't. You're

[09:13:40] right. And yet some part of me will Now

[09:13:45] is not the time to lose yourself in

[09:13:47] reflection.

[09:13:49] Yes. To the east, not far from the old

[09:13:52] monastery

[09:13:54] grounds. We should help.

[09:14:36] Without a corpse, I

[09:14:50] cannot better

[09:14:54] by ye or look what could have brought

[09:14:57] him out here. Friends, stand back.

[09:15:07] The demons are everywhere. Hard defended

[09:15:09] lines. Do not let me. We cannot hold

[09:15:13] much longer. I will find Oza. I promise

[09:15:17] she will not let us fall.

[09:15:21] He can't. He spoke of demons and in

[09:15:24] great number. The cultist. We have to

[09:15:27] divide our efforts once again. The old

[09:15:30] temple. Understood.

[09:15:33] Dravik has betrayed everything he stood

[09:15:36] for. The blood of his own people is on

[09:15:38] his hands.

[09:15:40] If you face him

[09:15:48] [Music]

[09:16:01] show not

[09:16:04] yet die and rot.

[09:16:18] and I need a corpse for

[09:16:22] that. This

[09:16:25] patient. My health is

[09:16:28] restored. Not yet.

[09:16:34] Your corpses are mine.

[09:17:01] [Music]

[09:17:04] Hallelujah.

[09:17:09] What can I do for you?

[09:17:15] [Music]

[09:17:23] Most appreciated. How may my knowledge

[09:17:26] help you be well?

[09:17:33] Oh, hello. Oh. Oh, hello.

[09:17:42] Need something reforged, salvaged,

[09:17:46] maybe? What could I do?

[09:17:57] [Music]

[09:18:14] Most

[09:18:21] appreciated. Come.

[09:18:51] Your souls will serve.

[09:19:08] is

[09:19:14] patient. That requires a

[09:19:22] corpse. No, not yet.

[09:19:29] I must wait. It seems fear not to the

[09:19:33] end.

[09:19:36] Without a corpse, I

[09:19:43] cannot shoot. That requires a corpse.

[09:19:55] Your corpses are mine.

[09:20:10] No, not yet.

[09:20:28] There. That must be the temple Oza spoke

[09:20:32] of and that feeling of

[09:20:38] dread. Do

[09:20:40] recharge. And I need a course for that.

[09:20:45] Death is patient.

[09:20:52] Die and rot.

[09:21:05] The shard seeker. Protect the ritual

[09:21:08] with your lives.

[09:21:13] Your constant interruptions have taxed

[09:21:16] the master's great work. He wishes to

[09:21:18] have words with you. I have

[09:21:22] you. Three shards

[09:21:25] destroyed.

[09:21:28] Uncontested. No

[09:21:30] more. You have earned the totality of my

[09:21:35] iron.

[09:21:50] No penance, only suffering.

[09:22:01] No, not yet.

[09:22:06] 90. My wounds

[09:22:09] men. Give it more

[09:22:28] time. Your own salvation.

[09:22:32] Yet the tide has been unleashed.

[09:22:39] Something fell from the priest's rose.

[09:22:41] That symbol again. Another

[09:22:45] re. It isn't far.

[09:22:48] [Music]

[09:23:17] death is patient.

[09:23:32] I must

[09:23:36] wait. That requires a

[09:23:44] course. I am renewed. That ability must

[09:23:48] recharge.

[09:23:56] Give it more time.

[09:24:10] [Music]

[09:24:33] I need a corpse for

[09:24:46] that. Give it more time.

[09:24:49] and requires a corpse.

[09:24:59] Death is inevitable.

[09:25:14] Wither die.

[09:25:17] I must wait. It seems I need a

[09:25:37] corpse. I must wait. It seems my time.

[09:25:45] That ability must

[09:25:51] recharge without a corpse. I cannot

[09:26:13] [Music]

[09:26:16] That ability must

[09:26:26] recharge. Death is patient.

[09:26:34] I need a course for that. Back ability

[09:26:36] must recharge. Your soul will serve.

[09:26:47] No, not yet.

[09:27:05] That requires a

[09:27:11] course. That must be

[09:27:21] charged. The balance is

[09:27:26] [Applause]

[09:27:27] preserved. I need a corpse for that.

[09:27:32] More

[09:27:40] time. Finally, a

[09:27:47] shadow. No, not yet. Without a corpse, I

[09:27:55] cannot give it more time.

[09:28:01] [Music]

[09:28:18] I need a course for that.

[09:28:22] I am here.

[09:28:27] That ability must recharge.

[09:28:33] No, not yet. Without a corpse, I

[09:28:38] cannot give it more

[09:28:57] time. Slain.

[09:29:06] [Music]

[09:29:44] that requires a

[09:29:50] corpse.

[09:29:55] Without a corpse, I

[09:30:11] cannot. I must wait soon. I need a

[09:30:14] corpse for that.

[09:30:32] That ability

[09:30:38] must not yet.

[09:30:56] Give it more

[09:30:58] time. That

[09:31:11] requires charge.

[09:31:38] [Music]

[09:31:48] Not

[09:31:55] yet. I must

[09:32:02] wait. That is true.

[09:32:09] I need a course on that.

[09:32:16] Adventurer over here. Mind lending us

[09:32:19] some

[09:32:32] aid. Give it more time.

[09:32:40] The

[09:32:40] balance is

[09:32:45] preserved. I must

[09:33:01] wait. Death is inevitable.

[09:33:06] Death is

[09:33:07] patient. Then the gods, you're here.

[09:33:10] Brok and the demons attacked the

[09:33:12] monastery directly. We have been

[09:33:14] fighting for our lives.

[09:33:18] I was able to warn the masters and our

[09:33:20] best men have been guarding the

[09:33:22] worldstone shaft. We should join them in

[09:33:24] the shrine.

[09:33:36] Give it more time.

[09:33:45] [Music]

[09:33:56] Without a corpse, I cannot.

[09:33:59] Protect Sure.

[09:34:05] Dead. How could he do this?

[09:34:09] That requires a corpse.

[09:34:17] The shadows rise against you,

[09:34:21] monster.

[09:34:27] Charge. I must wait.

[09:34:31] [Music]

[09:34:38] S die and fra. I couldn't save them.

[09:34:45] This monastery has stood for over 500

[09:34:48] years. Even the Zakarum army could not

[09:34:50] breach its walls. Oza, a powerful demon

[09:34:54] lord, has set his forces against this

[09:34:56] monastery.

[09:34:58] So many

[09:35:09] lives. No, Osa. Not for the

[09:35:13] stone, for

[09:35:20] Tyv. Without a corpse, I cannot

[09:35:36] Drop it took the shard onto the terrace.

[09:35:38] Follow after him.

[09:35:43] After the

[09:35:49] traitor. Heat. Heat.

[09:35:51] [Music]

[09:36:23] I serve a new god. One who actually

[09:36:27] listens to prayer. Run home to

[09:36:31] Eve. Only damnation awaits here.

[09:36:37] You

[09:36:38] monster. You betrayed everyone.

[09:36:41] [Music]

[09:37:06] That requires a course. My health is

[09:37:11] restored.

[09:37:13] Recharging. I need a course for

[09:37:20] that. I must wait.

[09:37:28] Just make

[09:37:31] [Music]

[09:37:42] sure my insight grows.

[09:38:16] Oza went ahead. She's all alone up

[09:38:20] there.

[09:38:21] [Music]

[09:39:13] You cannot escape Zim's grasp upon his

[09:39:17] sacred mountain. I am his fist and I

[09:39:21] will crush you for what you have done.

[09:39:25] That came from the league.

[09:39:28] Oza.

[09:39:33] [Music]

[09:39:52] Oh, no.

[09:40:09] Please.

[09:40:10] No, I am not in the practice of lying to

[09:40:13] friends. David, may Zen embrace you, my

[09:40:17] friend.

[09:40:28] I told you to run. I told you that you

[09:40:32] would fail. And now the god of damnation

[09:40:36] has his sight upon you. Yet I know you

[09:40:40] will not.

[09:40:48] The shot is gone. Damn

[09:40:54] it. I have no choice but to follow.

[09:41:00] [Music]

[09:41:05] Without a corpse, I cannot give it more

[09:41:08] time.

[09:41:38] That ability must

[09:41:41] recharge. It is not my time yet.

[09:41:51] Your corpses are mine.

[09:41:55] I need a course for that. I must wait.

[09:41:58] It seems

[09:42:05] [Music]

[09:42:28] No, not yet.

[09:42:43] Without a corpse, I

[09:42:48] cannot be patient.

[09:43:06] [Music]

[09:43:21] The harvest

[09:43:23] begins. Not yet.

[09:43:41] Need more

[09:43:48] time. We are not to the end.

[09:43:57] [Music]

[09:44:13] That requires a course. Left ability to

[09:44:19] recharge. I must wait.

[09:44:45] That one's

[09:44:49] cost. No, not yet.

[09:45:11] That under

[09:45:14] charge that requires a corpse. Death is

[09:45:18] patient.

[09:45:23] Give it more

[09:45:25] time. I need a corpse for that.

[09:45:53] Yeah.

[09:46:03] Worthy hands have shaped your steel.

[09:46:42] I need a corpse for that. Not

[09:46:47] [Music]

[09:46:49] yet. Give it more time.

[09:46:59] Your corpses are mine.

[09:47:03] Death is

[09:47:04] patient. Not a corpse. Give it more

[09:47:08] time.

[09:47:09] I am renewed. That requires a corpse.

[09:47:43] No, not yet. I need a corpse for

[09:47:48] that. I must wait. It

[09:47:52] seems without a corpse I cannot.

[09:48:17] will recharge.

[09:48:29] That ability must

[09:48:47] charge. How may my knowledge have a safe

[09:48:50] journey, adventurer?

[09:49:22] Heat. Heat.

[09:49:50] Come here.

[09:50:31] What can I do for you?

[09:50:37] [Music]

[09:50:41] Most

[09:50:48] [Music]

[09:50:50] appreciated. What can I do for you?

[09:50:56] Back.

[09:51:26] A job well done. Need something

[09:51:28] reforged? Salvaged maybe.

[09:51:33] No. Well, need

[09:51:51] [Music]

[09:52:00] Most appreciated.

[09:52:44] No, not yet.

[09:52:48] [Music]

[09:52:50] These frozen wastes extend no welcome to

[09:52:53] visitors. You'd be better off heading

[09:52:56] back to where you came. Arot belong. I

[09:52:59] seek a traitor to the monk order. A man

[09:53:02] in orange robes who consorts with

[09:53:05] demons. He came to this.

[09:53:08] A man like that would stand out like a

[09:53:10] pear tree in the snow. If he has thrown

[09:53:13] in his lot with the demons, your quarry

[09:53:16] likely hides in

[09:53:18] Cicheron along with the veil between

[09:53:21] life and death has been torn open in

[09:53:24] those ruins. Our ancestors spirits haunt

[09:53:27] the once hallowed hall. If you grow

[09:53:30] tired, the village of Bitter Hearth will

[09:53:33] welcome you.

[09:53:35] small, but there is a fire to one

[09:53:59] ends. Fear not the end.

[09:54:05] is

[09:54:21] patient. No, not

[09:54:23] yet. Without a course, I

[09:54:27] cannot give it more time.

[09:54:36] die and

[09:54:44] rot. I must wait. It seems

[09:54:52] your spirit is

[09:54:55] fading by the ancients.

[09:55:00] There is no peace in

[09:55:02] death. The

[09:55:04] demons are coming.

[09:55:11] Well fought,

[09:55:13] stranger. What brings you to these

[09:55:15] forsaken halls? I am on the hunt for a

[09:55:19] traitor. One of your tribesmen spoke of

[09:55:21] the spirit's haunting. It was not always

[09:55:24] so. This is the price of the world

[09:55:27] stone's

[09:55:28] destruction. My people cannot What a

[09:55:31] terrible

[09:55:33] fate. It pains me to hear that. But the

[09:55:36] man I seek hides in these ruins. And

[09:55:40] neither demons nor ghosts. Then we have

[09:55:43] similar aims. Death leaks into the world

[09:55:47] from the heart of

[09:55:49] Cicheron.

[09:55:51] My keep your weapon ready. The demons

[09:55:54] can somehow Hell will never blame

[09:56:07] Marriott and

[09:56:10] die. No, not

[09:56:12] yet. That requires a

[09:56:17] corpse. Give it more time.

[09:56:31] patients charge without a corpse. I

[09:56:38] cannot still

[09:56:40] charge that requires a corpse.

[09:56:48] The balance is preserved.

[09:57:09] Be gone. Foul beasts.

[09:57:17] The breach into the realm of death is

[09:57:19] somewhere ahead. Tread carefully.

[09:57:32] Let the shard open the path unto death.

[09:57:43] You defiled the sacred mountain no

[09:57:46] longer.

[09:57:50] [Music]

[09:57:53] Insulent savages. Your spirits will be

[09:57:57] burned soon enough.

[09:58:07] So you chose to follow me across the

[09:58:10] mountains after all. I am here for that

[09:58:13] stone. And yet you will have neither for

[09:58:17] we are beyond your reach. Go home. Pray

[09:58:21] to your impetent gods while you still

[09:58:23] can. The path to hell will open.

[09:58:41] You, you are of the flesh. We have

[09:58:45] fought for so long. There's no peace, no

[09:58:50] rest. Listen, those demons serve a man

[09:58:54] named DV.

[09:58:57] Only the dead may walk these lands. Yet

[09:59:01] there is a voice we hear, a woman upon

[09:59:04] the mountain who is not born of

[09:59:06] Bulathos. Her presence crosses over. Not

[09:59:10] a child of Bulathos.

[09:59:13] Tacsi, the pilgrim in Bitter Hearth.

[09:59:16] Then let the last of my strength fury

[09:59:18] you away from here. I only ask one

[09:59:21] thing. Please save us from this torment.

[09:59:27] Mortal, thank you, warrior.

[09:59:30] We will not forget this kindness. We'll

[09:59:33] want to speak with the chieftain as soon

[09:59:34] as possible. This

[09:59:45] way, thank you for the coin,

[09:59:49] friend. Huh? What do you

[09:59:53] need? Thank you for the coin, friend.

[10:00:12] Chief Kentark, is Tossi here? I have

[10:00:15] someone she needs to meet. Tossy? What

[10:00:19] is the

[10:00:20] matter? Huh? What do you need? Come on

[10:00:24] back if you need something. A shard of

[10:00:26] the world stone has returned to Ariot.

[10:00:29] The man who carries it intends to

[10:00:31] deliver the stone to a demon lord named

[10:00:34] Scone. Now he has taken by the

[10:00:37] ancients. Our people bled and our

[10:00:40] mountain was shattered to Yet I cannot

[10:00:43] stop him if I cannot cross into the

[10:00:45] realm of death. There take our guests

[10:00:48] here. Tsi should be near the tents.

[10:00:55] Excuse the urgency, but we are in need

[10:00:58] of help. My enemy has crossed over into

[10:01:01] a realm beyond ours where only spirits

[10:01:04] may tread. I am told. Only spirits? You

[10:01:09] speak of the unformed land. I'm sorry,

[10:01:12] but I am no witch, doctor. I am one of

[10:01:15] sword and shield, not one. I must

[10:01:17] reclaim the world. Here I was sent on a

[10:01:21] pilgrimage but unable to fulfill my

[10:01:24] purpose. Then the spirit sent a

[10:01:27] stranger. Not far from here is the

[10:01:30] cavern of echoes. Buried within its

[10:01:33] unnatural ice is one of the seven

[10:01:37] stones. The iceburn

[10:01:39] tier. Acquire

[10:01:43] it. Friend, I will speak with the

[10:01:46] chieftain while you are gone. after what

[10:01:48] we saw. Good luck with your talk, Na.

[10:01:52] When you leave town, head east until you

[10:01:55] reach the frozen lake. There in its

[10:01:58] deepest recesses here. This will help

[10:02:01] you fight the cold. Maple Cath, be

[10:02:05] careful in that cavern. The iceburn tier

[10:02:08] is one of the seven stones. Do not

[10:02:12] underestimate it.

[10:02:21] Need more

[10:02:26] time. Still

[10:02:29] recharging. That requires a

[10:02:37] focus. I must wait. It seems without a

[10:02:41] corpse I cannot.

[10:02:49] Death is

[10:02:57] inevitable. No, not

[10:03:02] yet. That requires a corpse.

[10:03:06] Death claim you. My health is restored.

[10:03:15] That ability

[10:03:23] must die.

[10:03:52] his

[10:03:58] patience. My brothers and

[10:04:01] I died here, did we not?

[10:04:08] [Music]

[10:04:23] I need a course for that. I must

[10:04:34] wait without a corpse. I cannot.

[10:04:47] Your corpses are

[10:04:57] mine. The churn of

[10:05:02] death. If you are to survive

[10:05:05] it, you must acquire the iceburn

[10:05:11] tier. Harness its

[10:05:14] power, lest

[10:05:16] death swallow you

[10:05:22] whole. For if you cannot endure the cold

[10:05:26] of this

[10:05:27] world, there will be no mercy for you in

[10:05:32] the

[10:05:41] next. The biting cold is

[10:05:45] unrelenting even from

[10:05:48] here. This is the power of the ice world

[10:05:51] here.

[10:05:54] That one's corpse might

[10:06:08] be that ability must

[10:06:16] charge. No, not yet.

[10:06:21] I need a corpse for that.

[10:06:30] Death is

[10:06:33] inevitable. Death is patient. Without a

[10:06:37] corpse, I

[10:06:39] cannot. It is not my time, it

[10:06:44] seems. No, not yet.

[10:07:08] Give it more time.

[10:07:17] is patient.

[10:07:20] Without a corpse, I

[10:07:28] [Music]

[10:07:38] cannot. I must

[10:07:42] wait.

[10:07:53] He's

[10:07:57] patient. I need a course on

[10:08:01] that. The cabin is

[10:08:04] collapsing. I can't stay here.

[10:08:12] Not yet.

[10:08:29] creature. Your grave beckons.

[10:08:43] The collapse is growing

[10:08:46] worse. You crashed the corpse. I

[10:08:57] cannot. I must wait. It

[10:09:03] seems that requires a corpus. Give it

[10:09:06] more time.

[10:09:13] Not

[10:09:23] yet. That must

[10:09:30] recharge. No, not yet.

[10:09:39] Fear not to the

[10:09:45] [Music]

[10:10:00] end of death.

[10:10:03] Without a corpse, I

[10:10:06] cannot. I need the

[10:10:09] corpse. I must wait. It

[10:10:16] seems that

[10:10:23] [Music]

[10:10:26] must your grave beckons.

[10:10:39] You're

[10:10:45] recharging this

[10:10:51] patient. I must wait. It seems

[10:10:54] [Music]

[10:11:04] I am healed.

[10:11:15] That ability must

[10:11:19] charge. Without a corpse, I fear not.

[10:11:49] Recharge. Your souls will serve.

[10:11:59] child that requires a

[10:12:04] [Music]

[10:12:05] corpse. That ability

[10:12:15] must still recharging.

[10:12:24] I must wait. It

[10:12:29] seems corpses are mine. I can feel it.

[10:12:34] An unnatural

[10:12:36] call

[10:12:43] and nothing.

[10:12:45] [Music]

[10:13:28] work is patient.

[10:13:34] That ability must challenge.

[10:13:40] Give it more time.

[10:13:51] Die and

[10:14:01] rot. Who calls? Very well. It is no

[10:14:05] shame of mine.

[10:14:34] Death is quite the teacher.

[10:16:21] [Music]

[10:16:54] Do you have this here?

[10:16:58] Unbelievable. I can feel it's cold. If

[10:17:01] only my people still had the courage you

[10:17:03] bear. But our wills have become as

[10:17:07] broken as our

[10:17:15] home. That

[10:17:17] cold.

[10:17:20] Yes. That cold.

[10:17:31] A sacred stone to think I would hold

[10:17:35] such. See how not even flame can

[10:17:38] withstand its presence. A lost flame can

[10:17:41] be reignited. All the seven stones are

[10:17:45] artifacts that my clan has been seeking

[10:17:47] for ages. While I'm no expert in the

[10:17:51] spirit world, I know that will and how

[10:17:54] does that claiming this stone has

[10:17:56] granted you its boon and the spirits of

[10:17:59] this mountain will now be able to the

[10:18:02] north. The ice clan Kazra have claimed

[10:18:05] the graveyard of the ancients. Clear out

[10:18:08] their

[10:18:10] infestation. I am going to speak with

[10:18:12] the chieftain once more. Hopefully, I

[10:18:15] will meet you in the graveyard with good

[10:18:16] news.

[10:18:18] The harvest

[10:18:36] begins.

[10:18:43] Recharging. Your grave beckons.

[10:18:53] I must wait. It

[10:19:05] seems that requires a corpse.

[10:19:17] I'll give it more

[10:19:23] time. Die and

[10:19:33] rot. Do

[10:19:40] recharging. No, not yet.

[10:19:43] I need a corpse for

[10:19:47] that. Death is

[10:19:51] patient. Without a corpse, I

[10:20:07] cannot ability to charge.

[10:20:18] Give it more

[10:20:29] time.

[10:20:31] Wither

[10:20:33] die is patient.

[10:20:37] Fear not the end.

[10:20:44] Still recharging.

[10:21:10] Not yet.

[10:21:16] Die and

[10:21:26] fra. Not yet.

[10:21:43] [Music]

[10:21:52] You

[10:21:53] return. Your grave

[10:21:57] beckons. Without a corpse, I cannot

[10:22:03] talk. No, not

[10:22:12] yet. Still

[10:22:20] [Music]

[10:22:23] recharging, it seems.

[10:22:33] Shadows rise

[10:22:36] again. No, not

[10:22:52] yet. There. That should put an end to

[10:22:55] their profane

[10:22:57] sacrifices. Now, where is that war

[10:22:59] banner?

[10:23:10] No, not yet.

[10:23:20] This tattered rag must be the banner

[10:23:23] Tossi spoke of. But what of these

[10:23:25] weapons? They look to have been stolen

[10:23:27] from various tribes. It is not right for

[10:23:30] them to remain here.

[10:23:48] still

[10:23:54] recharging. That ability

[10:24:05] charge. No, not yet.

[10:24:23] Give it more

[10:24:24] time. I need a course for

[10:24:35] that. Death is inevitable.

[10:24:58] A gravestone much older than the others.

[10:25:02] Let us see how Tossi's insight fares.

[10:25:06] You bring the standard of our enemy as

[10:25:09] an offering to our

[10:25:11] spirits. We are defined by more than

[10:25:15] violence. We who gave everything to

[10:25:18] fulfill our sworn duty. We who suffered

[10:25:22] for both Ariat and for clan. Show me

[10:25:27] there is more to you. Reunite my king

[10:25:30] with their weapons so their spirits may

[10:25:34] find rest.

[10:25:36] Honor their sacrifice.

[10:26:00] A worthy tribute. A warrior's weapon

[10:26:03] bears a portion of their soul, and

[10:26:06] without it, we are incomplete. My enemy

[10:26:10] has found a way to travel into the realm

[10:26:13] of the dead. He seeks to deliver a shard

[10:26:16] of the world stone into the hands of

[10:26:18] hell. I must follow after him. Our

[10:26:21] people have protected the heart of the

[10:26:24] world for generations upon

[10:26:27] generations. Take the signate from this

[10:26:29] grave, warrior. Travel to the plains of

[10:26:32] blood and return my kinsmen to their

[10:26:35] rest. Bury them with their weapons and

[10:26:44] display. The path to the plains of blood

[10:26:48] is open.

[10:26:49] Aid my people and they shall do

[10:26:52] adventurer. There you are.

[10:26:56] Tossi's ritual worked. I spoke with an

[10:26:59] ancient. Of course, it would be him. Tor

[10:27:04] is my father. He died 5 years ago. If

[10:27:08] you are truly able to speak with his

[10:27:11] spirit, let him know his daughter.

[10:27:13] Chieftan Kentar has rallied our tribe.

[10:27:16] When you move upon Sichon, we will join

[10:27:18] you in fighting back for our homeland.

[10:27:21] My people,

[10:27:23] spill the blood of demons together, my

[10:27:30] friend. The smell of rot and

[10:27:39] corruption. Yes.

[10:27:46] Death is

[10:27:49] [Music]

[10:27:52] patience. Something fell from the

[10:27:54] demon's

[10:27:55] corpse. A

[10:28:09] weapon. You get the elders and the

[10:28:11] children out of here.

[10:28:13] Wait,

[10:28:16] you was

[10:28:17] lucky. The others died not knowing if

[10:28:20] their sacrifice was worth it.

[10:28:23] Please save my

[10:28:30] [Music]

[10:28:32] still return.

[10:28:42] No, not yet.

[10:28:47] Foul demons. We lord them.

[10:28:52] could not

[10:28:53] hold. Tell me, did the children?

[10:28:58] [Music]

[10:29:00] Yes, your tribe survived and they fight

[10:29:03] for the future of this

[10:29:05] mountain. You can rest now,

[10:29:08] warrior. Death is patient.

[10:29:44] No, not yet.

[10:29:50] That requires a corpse.

[10:30:00] Thank you, warrior. Your blade never

[10:30:04] less. Your grip never slip. Your heart

[10:30:07] never fall.

[10:30:17] Death is

[10:30:23] patient. Death is

[10:30:34] inevitable. When a child of Bathos is

[10:30:37] born, we are bound by our vows. Protect

[10:30:41] the H.

[10:30:46] No, not yet.

[10:30:50] My

[10:30:52] blade. I I remember now. The chieftain

[10:30:57] living one fine tour restores

[10:31:05] his time.

[10:31:08] [Music]

[10:31:26] I must wait. It seems

[10:31:33] this ends now, demon.

[10:31:40] You think you can break me?

[10:31:49] You're They fought to a

[10:31:51] standill yet I sense

[10:31:54] something. Movement.

[10:31:56] Hunger. Endless hunger.

[10:32:07] Death is

[10:32:13] patient. No, not

[10:32:23] yet. Bit more

[10:32:28] time. Yes, things are clearer now.

[10:32:48] [Music]

[10:33:18] Heat. Heat.

[10:33:22] [Music]

[10:34:12] Heat. Heat.

[10:34:17] [Music]

[10:34:48] Finally a

[10:34:57] challenge. That is patience. I need a

[10:35:00] course for that.

[10:35:41] [Music]

[10:36:21] Heat. Heat.

[10:36:27] [Music]

[10:36:45] friend of the mountain. You have proven

[10:36:48] yourself a true ally to the children of

[10:36:51] Bulcathos.

[10:36:53] strength has returned to our fractured

[10:36:56] souls.

[10:36:58] Na lives and having met you, I can say

[10:37:02] she carries your spirit. Even now, she

[10:37:05] rallies your people to fight once more

[10:37:08] to prevent the world stone from falling

[10:37:10] into the hands of the burning hells.

[10:37:12] Thank you,

[10:37:13] warrior. You may not understand the

[10:37:16] pride I have in my daughter, but your

[10:37:19] words are a blessing I never thought to

[10:37:21] hear. Yes, and its shards plague our

[10:37:26] land. One of them now hides in the realm

[10:37:29] of the dead, a place I cannot reach

[10:37:32] without your blessing. And if I cannot

[10:37:35] reach it soon, hell will claim the stone

[10:37:37] for its own. My

[10:37:39] blessing? You have my blessing a

[10:37:42] thousandfold, friend. That signate you

[10:37:45] bear.

[10:37:48] [Music]

[10:37:53] Brothers, sisters, heed your chieftain

[10:37:56] one last

[10:38:00] time. You who is of our spirit, protect

[10:38:04] the heart of the world at any cost. We

[10:38:08] go with you unto death. Our

[10:38:14] blessing is

[10:38:16] patient.

[10:38:18] Our blessing is yours. But more than

[10:38:23] that, so too are our

[10:38:26] blades. We may have failed to protect

[10:38:30] the heart of creation once, but we will

[10:38:33] not do so again, but we will ensure the

[10:38:37] way.

[10:38:54] Death has come for

[10:38:57] you. Give it more

[10:39:09] time. No, not yet.

[10:39:21] [Music]

[10:39:28] Give it more

[10:39:33] time. Die and rot.

[10:39:51] No, not

[10:39:55] yet. That requires a force.

[10:40:11] Death is

[10:40:16] push without a corpse. I

[10:40:19] cannot give it more

[10:40:33] time. No, not yet.

[10:40:50] Your great TSI head inside. The demons

[10:40:54] will face my steel.

[10:41:19] She's

[10:41:29] gone. Be at peace, sister.

[10:41:36] Damn it. N knew what she was doing from

[10:41:41] the moment we step foot on the

[10:41:43] battlefield. We warrior, it is for that

[10:41:46] reason we cannot delay any further.

[10:42:03] Darcy, are you ready? Yes. This is the

[10:42:06] place the shard breached the barrier

[10:42:08] between life and death. Is it not? She

[10:42:11] didn't me. I see. My people are no

[10:42:15] strangers to death and sacrifice.

[10:42:19] Warriors of all, guide this one who will

[10:42:23] honor your legacy. Walk with them as

[10:42:26] they pass through the veil into I iniru.

[10:42:31] You have passed into the unformed land.

[10:42:35] While I have never You do not fight

[10:42:37] alone, warrior. The strength of the

[10:42:40] mountain is

[10:42:57] Give it more

[10:43:01] time. That requires a corpse.

[10:43:08] Once more you indignantly approach

[10:43:13] mortal, prepared to fight with misguided

[10:43:18] conviction to defend a flawed world and

[10:43:23] a corrupt people. How pitiable you are,

[10:43:28] our neglected

[10:43:30] kin. Yet I have seen your worth. And

[10:43:36] with this, the heart of

[10:43:39] creation, I will see you freed of

[10:43:43] heaven's

[10:43:46] sin. We are with you. By the call of the

[10:43:50] ancients, the gate shall

[10:43:53] open. Go, champion.

[10:44:00] Lord scone. The shard seeker

[10:44:03] approaches. Abandon your fear for terror

[10:44:09] is in my

[10:44:11] control.

[10:44:12] Gravic, come be cleansed of the heaven's

[10:44:21] blight. Nothing will dare us again.

[10:44:33] [Music]

[10:44:35] Embrace your

[10:44:37] heritage for soon this misbegotten world

[10:44:43] will also be made pure.

[10:44:51] [Music]

[10:44:52] Nea and Oza will be avenged.

[10:45:00] [Music]

[10:45:02] Just walk our

[10:45:05] [Music]

[10:45:07] way. I must

[10:45:16] wait.

[10:45:17] No, I defend yourself. Do not let them

[10:45:23] hurt you.

[10:45:26] [Music]

[10:45:38] return. I must

[10:45:46] wait. What is

[10:45:48] happening? Spirits of this desolate

[10:45:51] realm.

[10:45:53] Be my

[10:45:55] demand and serve the Lord of

[10:46:01] [Music]

[10:46:03] hell is

[10:46:07] [Music]

[10:46:09] patient. I must

[10:46:11] wait. My health is

[10:46:16] restored. This patient without a corpse

[10:46:19] I cannot

[10:46:22] I

[10:46:24] have what's gone

[10:46:27] promised. I can't lose

[10:46:31] you. I

[10:46:37] And so you survived the ancient evil

[10:46:40] once again. A spirit a wash in fury. K.

[10:46:45] It is time to return. Soul of the

[10:46:48] living. Cross through the veil of

[10:46:50] eternity. Let the tear guide you home.

[10:46:58] Champion, you have fought well, but your

[10:47:01] battle is not over. Not until the heart

[10:47:04] of creation is returned or destroyed.

[10:47:08] The spirits who haunt Cashon may never

[10:47:11] be at peace, but we will do all we can

[10:47:15] to heal the breach. May the ancients

[10:47:18] guard you on your journey.

[10:47:24] I would welcome you back, but I

[10:47:26] recognize that look in your eyes. You're

[10:47:30] leaving. Following after the world storm

[10:47:33] into the burning hells themselves. I am.

[10:47:36] Any other course would spell doom for

[10:47:38] our world.

[10:47:41] As I

[10:47:42] thought. Do not worry. I will see to

[10:47:45] Nav's last rights, but as soon as things

[10:47:49] are

[10:47:51] there will be buried alongside her

[10:47:53] father. And what of yourselves? My tribe

[10:47:56] and I may move on soon. Our charges no

[10:48:00] longer to this broken mountain, but to

[10:48:03] each

[10:48:04] other. Wear it well and break apart the

[10:48:08] evil that threatens our world.

[10:48:13] A bit bright.

[10:49:37] [Music]

[10:51:56] This is the burning

[10:51:58] hells. I must reach the world stone

[10:52:01] quickly

[10:52:06] before it feels as if my blood is on

[10:52:09] fire.

[10:52:11] like my very

[10:52:18] soul. Let us welcome

[10:52:23] you. Your

[10:52:26] blood royals in your

[10:52:32] veins. It will be ours.

[10:52:41] [Music]

[10:52:43] That cursed

[10:52:48] light will gush from

[10:52:55] you like the

[10:53:03] others. Of whom do you speak, demon?

[10:53:11] A foul creature is

[10:53:13] dead. Perhaps another of its oursed kin

[10:53:16] will reveal more. The gnarled husks

[10:53:19] point in this

[10:53:21] direction. If answers lie anywhere, they

[10:53:24] will be in the forest's heart. Give it

[10:53:27] more

[10:53:27] time. Without a corpse, I cannot.

[10:53:40] Fear not the end.

[10:54:08] Give it time.

[10:54:25] I must wait.

[10:54:27] I am renewed.

[10:54:32] Bashab charge.

[10:54:49] [Music]

[10:55:16] Recharging.

[10:55:43] My health is restored.

[10:55:51] Old

[10:55:51] [Music]

[10:55:53] creature. You had more

[10:56:01] [Music]

[10:56:07] time. Fear not the end.

[10:56:21] of his

[10:56:27] patience. I must wait. It

[10:56:35] seems still

[10:56:47] recharging patient.

[10:56:50] I need a course for

[10:56:57] that. Need more

[10:57:05] time. Die and rot.

[10:57:19] is patient. Without a corpse, I

[10:57:44] cannot. Death is inevitable.

[10:57:57] the

[10:58:03] factory. He

[10:58:05] had he forge that which is broken in.

[10:58:29] You

[10:58:32] return without a corpse. I

[10:58:35] cannot give it more time.

[10:58:44] No, not

[10:58:57] yet. That one's

[10:59:03] course. The harvest begins.

[10:59:21] die.

[10:59:26] Seems to

[10:59:32] recharge. I must wait. It seems

[10:59:42] Give it more

[10:59:46] [Music]

[10:59:58] time. That ability must

[11:00:06] is

[11:00:13] patient. Give it more time. It is not my

[11:00:17] time. It

[11:00:20] seems

[11:00:26] patient more time.

[11:00:32] I need a

[11:00:58] course.

[11:01:12] Without a corpse, I cannot.

[11:01:22] Of whom do you speak,

[11:01:27] demon? No foul creature is

[11:01:30] dead. Perhaps another of its oursed kin

[11:01:34] will reveal more. The

[11:01:38] knowled belong in the burning

[11:01:42] hells.

[11:01:43] It's its end.

[11:01:51] Fear not the

[11:02:01] You have entered the

[11:02:03] realm of the Lord of

[11:02:09] Temple. Your journey will

[11:02:14] fear where no grave hits

[11:02:18] you. I

[11:02:24] won't that requires a

[11:02:35] corpse. There is no escape. We can sense

[11:02:39] it. The light bleeding away from

[11:02:43] us.

[11:02:46] Our roots extend throughout this

[11:02:50] forest. Each formed from a twisted soul

[11:02:55] like

[11:02:56] you. You are nearly

[11:02:59] exhausted. Your light but a

[11:03:02] flicker. Do you not see the roots tight?

[11:03:09] We will be

[11:03:18] as your

[11:03:20] mirror defended

[11:03:23] me and that draining feeling is what

[11:03:27] familiar light

[11:03:30] beckons. I sense a presence.

[11:03:36] Shine as a

[11:03:37] beacon. Please fight

[11:03:40] on. I am imprisoned in the ruins ahead.

[11:03:45] [Music]

[11:03:48] Foul creature.

[11:03:52] I must wait. It seems No, not yet.

[11:04:09] Your corpses are

[11:04:16] mine. Is

[11:04:23] patience. Give it more

[11:04:29] time. Still recharging.

[11:04:35] Without a corpse, I

[11:04:44] cannot. It

[11:04:52] seems death is inevitable.

[11:05:03] Death is

[11:05:16] patient. That must charge.

[11:05:50] Your indignance only makes your

[11:05:52] suffering sweeter. Angel,

[11:05:57] you will never break my spirit.

[11:06:02] Ah, a fresh

[11:06:05] soul. The siphon will overflow this

[11:06:15] day. No, not

[11:06:17] yet. The harvest begins.

[11:06:27] Well

[11:06:29] deserve the

[11:06:31] soul. Destroy it before it devours the

[11:06:34] last of my strength.

[11:06:51] It is done.

[11:06:53] Angel, you are free.

[11:07:13] Thank you,

[11:07:15] mortal. I am

[11:07:17] Baratheal. There is something different

[11:07:19] about

[11:07:20] you. The Ah, I understand now. That

[11:07:25] blade you carry is Yira, edge of

[11:07:29] temperance, the last vestage of the

[11:07:33] martyr. May I share in its strength for

[11:07:37] just a moment?

[11:08:08] See how hell itself receds from the

[11:08:12] pure. The blade has restored my spirit

[11:08:15] and my mind. And I see you now as you

[11:08:19] are. Mortal my soul.

[11:08:22] Mortal. When I look at you, it is as if

[11:08:26] the eye of a new stares back at me. Your

[11:08:30] soul bears the same scars that have rent

[11:08:33] eternity as thunder. If not for

[11:08:37] yield, your spirit would be new. I do

[11:08:40] not fear for my

[11:08:42] soul. What matters is that scone has a

[11:08:46] frag. More is at stake than you realize,

[11:08:49] mortal. The eye of a new has the power

[11:08:52] to alter

[11:08:53] creation. It was done once before. We

[11:08:56] must rescue my brethren in arms. My

[11:08:59] lieutenant

[11:09:01] Mel. His screams echo from somewhere in

[11:09:04] the plane. Your blade grants its wielder

[11:09:07] the power to

[11:09:14] commune. The path has been revealed.

[11:09:37] That ability must

[11:09:43] recharge. Not yet.

[11:09:55] Your death will balance the

[11:10:10] science. Die and

[11:10:16] rot. Give it more

[11:10:19] time. Heat. Heat.

[11:10:51] Fear not the

[11:11:08] end. The blade is leading me towards

[11:11:10] that cave.

[11:11:15] No, not yet.

[11:11:21] That requires a corpse. That

[11:11:24] smell a rank odor of petrifying

[11:11:30] blood. I must wait. Muslims,

[11:11:36] your corpses are mine.

[11:11:43] I can hardly see a thing in

[11:11:52] here.

[11:11:54] Mielle, do you

[11:11:56] live? Barthe sent me to find you.

[11:12:02] No. An archangel's blessings.

[11:12:08] How? Halt.

[11:12:10] The

[11:12:11] sound it

[11:12:13] stopped. Flee, mortal. Flee.

[11:12:27] [Music]

[11:12:38] Time to face.

[11:12:48] to

[11:12:59] face. Mortal, free me,

[11:13:05] please. Damn it. That creature shattered

[11:13:09] the mechanism. There has to be something

[11:13:11] I can use to flip the great again. The

[11:13:14] cleaver.

[11:13:31] Heat. Heat.

[11:13:38] [Music]

[11:14:09] To think that my salvation would come

[11:14:12] from mortal

[11:14:14] hands. I had feared all hope had

[11:14:18] abandoned me. Not yet. It seems

[11:14:22] there is

[11:14:24] something

[11:14:26] otherworldly about your essence,

[11:14:29] mortal. And you wield an archangel's

[11:14:32] weapon with

[11:14:34] ease. Before I was taken here to be

[11:14:37] tortured by that

[11:14:40] beast, I bore witness to Scan's

[11:14:44] rituals. The construction of great pits

[11:14:48] of anguish that summoned forth a demonic

[11:14:51] army. Such

[11:14:53] blasphemy cannot be allowed to exist.

[11:15:00] The pits lie within the depths of Scan's

[11:15:04] blackened

[11:15:05] citadel. Go and bring Scan's ritual

[11:15:10] low. May heaven's light illumine your

[11:15:14] path.

[11:15:20] Be on your guard, Blade

[11:15:23] Wilder, for you have surely stoked the

[11:15:26] fire of Scar's

[11:15:41] fury. Give it more time.

[11:15:55] That one's corpse might be

[11:16:00] used. Death is

[11:16:04] patient. I am

[11:16:09] renewed. Give it more time.

[11:16:18] The balance is preserved.

[11:16:50] Give it more time.

[11:16:55] Fear not to the end.

[11:17:24] [Music]

[11:17:38] Ah, there you are. Events have

[11:17:42] progressed to the point your weapon

[11:17:45] would finally allow us to converse.

[11:17:50] Sky,

[11:17:52] I know what you seek to do, child of

[11:17:56] hell.

[11:17:57] Despite your intent, you are welcome to

[11:18:02] my

[11:18:12] horse that I best to avoid

[11:18:20] it. I need a course for that.

[11:18:24] [Applause]

[11:18:33] That ability must

[11:18:49] recharge. Run if you like. There is no

[11:18:52] escape.

[11:18:56] Black must

[11:18:59] [Music]

[11:19:07] recharge. You stand before the Lord of

[11:19:11] Damnation in the depths of his domain.

[11:19:15] Child, understand that you are alive

[11:19:19] because I will it.

[11:19:22] Because I see what you really are.

[11:19:27] If this is the extent of your

[11:19:31] hospitality, I am unimpressed.

[11:19:34] You have my interest, but do not presume

[11:19:38] we are

[11:19:39] equals. You are still unworthy in the

[11:19:43] eyes of your true

[11:19:45] king. Allow me to demonstrate.

[11:19:51] Behind both of these gateways lies

[11:19:53] extorted

[11:19:55] soul. One the foul spawn of heaven. One

[11:20:00] a servant from your world who has

[11:20:03] strayed from my path and

[11:20:06] seeks. Grant one their

[11:20:10] freedom. Decide.

[11:20:15] You would save the beings who nearly

[11:20:19] burned your world into cinder. Their

[11:20:22] fear still drives them against you.

[11:20:30] That requires a

[11:20:31] corpse. Do reach

[11:20:38] out. Do not let the demon stir your

[11:20:41] heart. It seeks to corrupt you, to prey

[11:20:45] upon your

[11:20:46] weakness. Remember your

[11:20:49] [Music]

[11:20:50] purpose, the pit of anguish. There must

[11:20:54] be somewhere

[11:20:57] ahead. Death is patient. Without a

[11:21:00] corpse, I cannot.

[11:21:11] [Music]

[11:21:15] Death was patient.

[11:21:27] That ability must recharge.

[11:21:37] is patient.

[11:21:44] No, not

[11:21:45] yet. That requires a force.

[11:21:53] Death is

[11:21:56] inevitable. Give it more time.

[11:22:11] [Music]

[11:22:12] My insight

[11:22:14] grows that ability to

[11:22:20] charge. No, not yet.

[11:22:33] Death is

[11:22:38] patient. Give it more

[11:22:45] time. No, not yet.

[11:23:22] I need a corpse for that. I must wait.

[11:23:24] It seems

[11:23:38] The harvest

[11:23:47] begins. Give it more time.

[11:24:04] Death is

[11:24:10] patient. Not yet.

[11:24:17] It is not my time.

[11:24:22] Still

[11:24:27] recharging. Give it more

[11:24:45] time. The front

[11:24:51] Worthy hands have shaped your

[11:25:06] steel. Death is

[11:25:11] patient. I need a corpse for that. That

[11:25:14] ability must

[11:25:30] No, not yet.

[11:25:40] [Music]

[11:25:50] I must wait. It seems without a corpse I

[11:25:56] cannot recharge.

[11:26:15] Give it more

[11:26:23] time. I must wait. It

[11:26:28] seems I need a corpse for that. Give it

[11:26:31] more

[11:26:34] time. It is not my time. It seems

[11:26:57] [Music]

[11:27:30] You're in charge.

[11:27:33] That one's corpse might be

[11:27:37] useful. Give it more time.

[11:27:46] Your corpses are mine.

[11:27:50] No, not yet. Without a corpse, I

[11:27:56] cannot. Death is patient. That requires

[11:28:00] a corpse.

[11:28:03] My wounds men.

[11:28:14] [Music]

[11:28:45] The soul cipher. It is exactly as Miguel

[11:28:49] feared. The light of heaven is being

[11:28:51] consumed to summon the

[11:29:02] stars. The siphon has been drained.

[11:29:06] Nothing remains. Use Yira's power to

[11:29:09] purge the evil as I did before. This may

[11:29:13] be your only chance.

[11:29:33] Heaven would deny the truth that light

[11:29:37] and dark were one.

[11:29:40] Yet I use the light to create while they

[11:29:46] are the destroyers.

[11:29:49] As Garn's power waines, ours

[11:29:53] blows. I sense another of my

[11:29:57] brothers.

[11:29:58] Andelon to the north. Make haste.

[11:30:11] [Music]

[11:30:27] That ability must recharge. Without a

[11:30:30] corpse, I cannot.

[11:30:33] I must wait.

[11:30:40] Another tortured

[11:30:43] angel.

[11:30:52] Sicking. Only a hollow armor

[11:30:56] remains. I must reach Andelon before he

[11:30:59] shares this fate.

[11:31:12] I must wait.

[11:31:22] An entire legion imprisoned and drained

[11:31:25] of

[11:31:26] life. So this is how an unknown demon

[11:31:30] summoned an army.

[11:31:37] That ability must

[11:31:41] recharge. Come no

[11:31:44] closer. We are not

[11:31:47] alone. Purus is watching.

[11:31:53] Fear not. The Rael has sent me to aid

[11:31:55] you.

[11:32:32] Wheeling join the

[11:32:35] chorus souls.

[11:32:56] [Music]

[11:33:33] You You are demon

[11:33:37] spawn. Have the days grown so dark that

[11:33:42] your mongrel kind could provide a ray of

[11:33:47] hope. Would you prefer to remain

[11:33:49] imprisoned? Do not confuse

[11:33:53] incredul for

[11:33:55] gratitude, mortal. The usurper has

[11:34:00] stolen my life blood and used it to

[11:34:04] birth in an unholy army from a twisted

[11:34:07] womb in the

[11:34:09] west. It will be guarded by the living

[11:34:13] war engines of hell.

[11:34:16] Only the light you wield can those tests

[11:34:20] my faith. I must ask you to resist your

[11:34:24] many imperfections.

[11:34:49] Recharging that requires a

[11:34:54] course. My wound is near. That ability

[11:34:58] must be charged.

[11:35:21] Your corpses are mine.

[11:35:25] No, not yet.

[11:35:34] [Music]

[11:36:03] Heat. Heat. Heat.

[11:36:23] I must

[11:36:35] wait.

[11:36:52] Heat. Heat.

[11:37:20] Your grave beckons.

[11:37:32] My elder

[11:37:39] is coming.

[11:38:08] Wait. Not yet.

[11:38:29] The balance is preserved.

[11:38:40] [Music]

[11:39:09] is

[11:39:11] out. Die and rot.

[11:39:27] Heat. Heat.

[11:39:55] [Applause]

[11:40:03] Your corpses are mine.

[11:40:28] Death is

[11:40:32] patient. Heat. Heat.

[11:40:36] [Applause]

[11:41:13] Death is inevitable.

[11:41:24] I must wait. It seems

[11:42:04] Power.

[11:42:19] [Music]

[11:42:30] Heat. Heat.

[11:42:47] use might to destroy at their

[11:42:51] behest exactly as they would have purged

[11:42:54] your world.

[11:42:57] Your lies fall on deaf ears.

[11:43:01] Demon raise an army or invade another

[11:43:04] world. Peace. Holy

[11:43:10] wrath. The last of my lieutenants is

[11:43:13] near. Find him

[11:43:16] quickly. Spirit has grown dark.

[11:43:45] functions. Such

[11:43:48] brilliance tonight.

[11:44:09] The balance is preserved.

[11:44:25] No, not

[11:44:26] yet. I am.

[11:44:35] [Applause]

[11:44:41] Fear not the end.

[11:44:47] He lives. You must destroy the

[11:44:52] soul with

[11:45:10] pleasure.

[11:45:12] Run, please run. and I do not wish to

[11:45:16] harm you, but I I could fight him no

[11:45:20] longer.

[11:45:24] Your bonds are broken, Angel.

[11:45:29] There is no

[11:45:30] freedom in the Lord of Damnation's

[11:45:33] realm.

[11:45:45] Do you not see? He wants you to free

[11:45:52] us. There can be no victory here.

[11:45:58] We join him.

[11:46:02] [Music]

[11:46:04] Now you see my truth laid bare. The fate

[11:46:09] of those who

[11:46:11] stand. Eventually their suffering gives

[11:46:15] way to acceptance.

[11:46:51] I will see it drown.

[11:47:04] Heat. Heat.

[11:47:33] Hell yeah.

[11:47:55] Your

[11:47:57] success brings about

[11:48:02] calamity. There is no hope.

[11:48:08] only the illusion of it. Do not give in

[11:48:12] to despair. Your brethren

[11:48:27] live. He is

[11:48:29] gone.

[11:48:31] His anguished spirit has been smothered

[11:48:36] by hell's

[11:48:38] corruption.

[11:48:40] Shadex, we shall remember you despite

[11:48:43] this tragedy.

[11:48:52] [Music]

[11:48:58] The blade of

[11:49:00] temperance delivered just as I to

[11:49:04] find. You have played your part

[11:49:08] dutifully, mortal.

[11:49:11] I could not so much as touch the blade

[11:49:14] on my

[11:49:15] own, but you were

[11:49:18] so

[11:49:22] blame and again the light of dying

[11:49:27] angels in comparison to us power.

[11:49:33] Let the great one

[11:49:42] [Applause]

[11:49:51] stir has been corrupted and there is no

[11:49:55] destroying this pit without it.

[11:49:58] The only way to

[11:50:04] the light of heaven will bleed from your

[11:50:08] kind. It fuels the engines of war that

[11:50:13] will birth my

[11:50:16] army. For the end of days is nigh.

[11:50:23] Wind shadow will devour the lights. Take

[11:50:28] your wings among us or you too shall be

[11:50:34] consumed.

[11:50:35] [Music]

[11:50:40] The breeding pit of Scar's

[11:50:43] army. I have to

[11:50:49] do will stay.

[11:50:53] Liberty must return.

[11:51:06] You've trapped us together,

[11:51:08] demon. Not a winning

[11:51:16] strategy.

[11:51:27] Without I

[11:51:34] cannot back is full enough.

[11:51:58] Can

[11:51:59] hardly

[11:52:01] breathe. Need to move faster.

[11:52:17] That ability must recharge.

[11:52:24] No space left, I'm afraid.

[11:52:37] [Music]

[11:52:53] Oh

[11:52:56] god. Oh god.

[11:53:09] You're dead.

[11:53:48] Need more

[11:53:50] time.

[11:53:56] Heat.

[11:54:06] Heat. Heat.

[11:54:49] begin.

[11:54:56] You will never set foot in our

[11:55:00] world.

[11:55:10] Never. Is this a place where demons are

[11:55:14] tormented or birthed?

[11:55:34] Death is inevitable.

[11:55:52] Not

[11:55:55] [Music]

[11:56:11] yet.

[11:56:13] Heat.

[11:56:24] Heat.

[11:56:51] I must wait.

[11:57:11] I must wait

[11:57:32] for

[11:57:39] Yeah.

[11:57:49] Heat.

[11:58:16] Heat.

[11:58:42] Heat. Heat.

[11:59:26] Enough.

[11:59:38] he

[11:59:39] has reforged that witches.

[12:00:07] Most

[12:00:08] impressive. But can you close a thousand

[12:00:14] more? Can all of

[12:00:17] humanity consider your future?

[12:00:23] Heaven thermal war to our

[12:00:31] rims themselves can contest it.

[12:00:35] I will seek you.

[12:00:39] Of course you will. All damned souls are

[12:00:44] welcome in my

[12:00:51] I can tread no farther in this

[12:00:53] citadel. Scone must be somewhere beyond

[12:00:57] this

[12:00:57] gate. But how to breach

[12:01:01] it? No, not yet.

[12:01:04] You do not bear this burden alone,

[12:01:06] mortal.

[12:01:07] [Music]

[12:01:15] With Yira lost, I feared the worst. I am

[12:01:19] glad the mortal lost the archangel's

[12:01:22] blade, and we are nearly powerless in

[12:01:25] the heart of

[12:01:26] Scar. If anything, your fears are

[12:01:30] vindicated. We should never have trusted

[12:01:33] such a fallible creature. Silence,

[12:01:36] Andelon. The pits of anguish lie dormant

[12:01:39] by this mortal's hands. Our bickering

[12:01:42] only benefits the enemy. Without Yira,

[12:01:47] only our strength can open the gateway

[12:01:50] to the usurper's throne room. We must

[12:01:53] work together for eternity.

[12:02:17] It is done. But it will take all of our

[12:02:20] strength to maintain the portal. When

[12:02:23] you enter, you will be alone with a dis.

[12:02:26] A world where dark rules will burn

[12:02:29] itself up. A world where light commands

[12:02:33] will eventually

[12:02:35] stagnate. I will see the balance

[12:02:38] preserved. Angel,

[12:02:40] go, champion. We will hold the gateway

[12:02:43] open as long as we can.

[12:02:51] Gaze upon my strength. The corpse of a

[12:02:55] prime abandoned in hell to

[12:02:59] rot now bound by my

[12:03:04] will. This stone is the key to all

[12:03:08] mortal

[12:03:10] souls. Your light has been bleeding away

[12:03:15] since you stepped forth in my domain.

[12:03:24] I offer you one last chance at

[12:03:29] redemption. Be

[12:03:31] cleansed. Join with us your true

[12:03:35] family. All

[12:03:38] unending darkness awaits.

[12:03:47] I could say that I am here to

[12:03:50] preserve, but let's be

[12:03:53] honest. I don't like you and you are not

[12:03:57] my

[12:04:05] family.

[12:04:14] Heat. Heat.

[12:04:34] You show me and bring the

[12:04:37] crime

[12:04:40] annihilation such

[12:04:52] [Music]

[12:05:03] I must

[12:05:07] wait and arrogance. Would you kill me

[12:05:11] and free the

[12:05:16] prize?

[12:05:19] You

[12:05:21] terror beyond your

[12:05:25] recolle is unchained.

[12:05:31] Yira, it survived.

[12:05:35] Yet, it seems Scan's plans to

[12:05:41] siphon the

[12:05:43] [Music]

[12:05:48] skull. By mortal

[12:05:51] hands, I find anchor in the fires of

[12:05:58] hell. From the endless

[12:06:01] abyss, terror stalks

[12:06:06] creation once

[12:06:12] [Music]

[12:06:15] more. Flee now. Get the shard away from

[12:06:19] here.

[12:06:49] The wrath is inside. Throw open the

[12:06:52] gate. We have to reach her.

[12:06:56] Reckless and impossible, we lack the

[12:06:59] strength. And doing so would imperil all

[12:07:02] that she sacrificed herself to

[12:07:04] save.

[12:07:07] Vera laid down her life to ensure the

[12:07:10] Lord of Terror did not claim the heart

[12:07:12] of

[12:07:15] creation. You are unworthy of such

[12:07:19] sacrifice, mortal.

[12:07:22] She felt countless demons across the

[12:07:25] field of

[12:07:27] eternity only to suffer for an

[12:07:31] eon. You are not fit to question her.

[12:07:36] Angolong, remember her words and hold

[12:07:39] your eye for the

[12:07:42] enemy. While our mission is over at long

[12:07:45] last, we remain in the depths of hell.

[12:07:48] Discord among allies is of ill benefit.

[12:07:52] As for you,

[12:07:55] mortal commanded us to ensure you

[12:07:58] escaped hell with that

[12:08:00] stone. While I do not hold you in the

[12:08:04] same

[12:08:05] esteem, I will respect her

[12:08:08] orders. Return the shard to your

[12:08:11] world. We will be watching. Do not stray

[12:08:16] from the light.

[12:08:23] Give it more.

[12:08:26] [Applause]

[12:09:01] Ah, friend. You've Do you have it? The

[12:09:05] last World Stone shard? Yes, but it came

[12:09:10] at a terrible cost.

[12:09:13] Diablo's soul has been freed within the

[12:09:16] burning hells.

[12:09:18] [Music]

[12:09:20] Diablo. No, no, no. It was done. The

[12:09:26] lord of terror was dealt

[12:09:31] with. This is a catastrophic turn of

[12:09:36] events. I had hoped we'd averted the

[12:09:40] end. It is not over yet,

[12:09:43] Kane. What I saw was only a spirit.

[12:09:46] Diablo has not taken form. I've been too

[12:09:53] complacent, a

[12:09:55] fool. Come, we unchath Yer.

[12:10:00] Yunira.

[12:10:08] Hell's corruption is overtaking the

[12:10:11] blade. Look at it. The light has almost

[12:10:15] entirely faded from the archangel's

[12:10:18] weapon. Can anything be done? I

[12:10:22] I do not know.

[12:10:25] [Music]

[12:10:26] Tempering an archangel's blade is beyond

[12:10:29] even the Herodri Malice's

[12:10:31] power. Even our best efforts can bear.

[12:10:35] Yet, Yil Nerra is the only hope we have

[12:10:39] of destroying the

[12:10:41] shard. If we must use the blade as it

[12:10:44] is. Hold on. You heard, Charie. The

[12:10:48] results could be catastrophic.

[12:10:50] It is no worse of fate than what Diablo

[12:10:52] would unleash upon us.

[12:11:27] [Music]

[12:11:29] Are you all right, my end. That light

[12:11:32] nearly consumed you. Ya. The blade has

[12:11:38] fulfilled its purpose. Besides, if what

[12:11:41] you saw is true, and Diablo's spirit

[12:11:45] survived, I have a gift for you.

[12:11:56] [Music]

[12:12:03] You hold a vessel of power that once

[12:12:06] belonged to my ancestor Jared

[12:12:10] Kain. Sadly, against all odds, the Herod

[12:12:14] stopped Diablo and his brothers from

[12:12:17] Thank you, Kane. I believe you, friend.

[12:12:21] But even if you are successful, the dark

[12:12:25] lord has been defeated before.

[12:12:29] No.

[12:12:32] Yes. Things are clearer now.

[12:12:36] [Music]

[12:13:34] Ah, I see word finally reached you, my

[12:13:37] friend. Good. Good. Another letter. That

[12:13:42] last one certainly added some

[12:13:44] complication to my

[12:13:46] life. Any clue as to what this is about?

[12:13:49] As intriguing as your story may be, I

[12:13:53] have no interest in opening your

[12:13:56] mail. Besides, pouring through this

[12:14:00] material on the end of days has made

[12:14:03] these old eyes tired

[12:14:06] enough. Now, where did I put that thing?

[12:14:12] Ah, there it is. Here. I hope that there

[12:14:16] is some good news contained

[12:14:20] within. But knowing our luck, I think we

[12:14:23] both hold little faith in that.

[12:14:34] [Music]

[12:14:36] I've seen you bear. Demonic nightmares

[12:14:40] and undead are seeping forth from the

[12:14:42] Misty Valley. Then you must go and offer

[12:14:46] our allies whatever aid you can. They

[12:14:51] will most certainly need

[12:14:54] it. In the meantime, I will see what

[12:14:57] favor I can curry among West March's

[12:15:00] leaders.

[12:15:02] A growing threat in the north cannot

[12:15:05] simply be ignorant. Truth be told, I'd

[12:15:08] rather face those nightmares than the

[12:15:10] rulers of this

[12:15:11] city. Good luck, Kane. You may need it

[12:15:15] more than I. I hate to agree with you,

[12:15:19] but I share your

[12:15:22] misgivings. Farewell for now, my friend.

[12:15:26] May the light bless both of our

[12:15:29] journeys.

[12:15:37] [Music]

[12:16:07] What do you need, friend?

[12:16:11] [Music]

[12:16:20] Goodbye.

[12:16:24] [Music]

[12:16:31] I hope that can help.

[12:16:34] [Music]

[12:17:42] Meet me where four wolves wet their

[12:17:45] paws. I will show you truth hidden

[12:17:48] within the city of the light. a bit

[12:17:51] tricky. The city of the light can only

[12:17:54] be west

[12:17:55] much and they certainly do love wolf

[12:17:58] imagery.

[12:18:06] Hello

[12:18:26] Oh, I see. Well, please come again.

[12:18:37] [Music]

[12:19:22] against

[12:19:35] you. I must wait.

[12:19:48] Not my time. Without a course, I

[12:19:53] cannot

[12:20:04] wait.

[12:20:11] Heat. Heat.

[12:20:26] Yeah. Heat.

[12:21:12] Still recharging.

[12:21:15] I need a

[12:21:36] course.

[12:21:43] Heat. Heat.

[12:22:11] [Music]

[12:22:30] How may I know. That was quite the find.

[12:22:33] What could I do?

[12:22:46] [Music]

[12:22:52] Most appreciated. Do you?

[12:22:58] Oh, hello. Nothing else I can help you

[12:23:00] with.

[12:23:40] Thank you. and come again.

[12:24:09] [Music]

[12:24:18] You You are the warrior that fought

[12:24:21] beside Oza at the sanctified Earth

[12:24:24] Temple.

[12:24:25] Oh, thank the god you have arrived.

[12:24:29] Excuse me, Alolyte. I was sent a letter

[12:24:31] from a monk by the name of Shura. He

[12:24:33] mentioned he had taken refuge here at

[12:24:35] Sentinel's Watch. Do you know where

[12:24:38] you're wounded?

[12:24:40] After the temple fell, a thick choking

[12:24:45] darkness spread throughout the valley,

[12:24:48] nightmarish demons festered like a

[12:24:52] plague. Without Oza and the monks from

[12:24:55] the floating sky

[12:24:57] monastery, our acolytes could not hold

[12:24:59] on.

[12:25:03] The children of Rakis offered us a place

[12:25:06] with

[12:25:07] them, but it has not been

[12:25:10] easy. Old hatreds linker, even if no one

[12:25:14] speaks of them. Shur was working with

[12:25:17] their captain, Veric, I believe his name

[12:25:22] is. Last I saw, Veric and Shur were

[12:25:26] arguing in

[12:25:28] Sentinels. Start there.

[12:25:40] Captain

[12:25:41] Veric, I came to ask you about a monk

[12:25:44] named Shur, but from the look of things,

[12:25:47] you could use some help.

[12:25:51] Astute as ever,

[12:25:53] adventurer. The black fog is spreading.

[12:25:56] Nightmares are tearing them into shreds,

[12:25:58] and the acolytes we've taken in are more

[12:26:00] uneasy than Arak and a grease pit. I

[12:26:03] could use more than some help. I could

[12:26:06] use an

[12:26:08] army. Instead, I've got you. And

[12:26:12] honestly, you're more reliable. Your

[12:26:14] monk friend is out there fighting the

[12:26:16] nightmares. We've been trying to send

[12:26:19] reinforcements, but we're under attack

[12:26:21] from all sides. If you want to find him,

[12:26:28] Captain.

[12:26:40] What is it? Reports. Our reinforcements

[12:26:43] have been pinned down by Khazer. The

[12:26:45] monks are cut off in the valley, and the

[12:26:47] fog is growing worse.

[12:26:52] It seems I'm headed that way already.

[12:26:54] I'll look for your

[12:26:58] [Music]

[12:27:13] men.

[12:27:27] Another wave inbound. Make these goats

[12:27:30] bleach their last.

[12:27:35] [Music]

[12:27:37] [Applause]

[12:27:49] [Music]

[12:28:03] Damn. Thank you.

[12:28:05] The chasm struck right at us just as we

[12:28:08] were grown ragged.

[12:28:14] Make sure you thank Adah when you return

[12:28:17] back to the Yes. Shur and a group of our

[12:28:20] combined forces headed further into the

[12:28:22] mists. You were supposed to reinforce

[12:28:24] them, but these mangy creatures ambushed

[12:28:27] us. If you hurry, you can still make it.

[12:28:30] Go with the light's blessing, friend.

[12:28:33] Damn these finger.

[12:28:59] [Applause]

[12:29:15] No, not yet.

[12:29:32] It is not my

[12:29:35] time.

[12:29:39] Charge of course. I cannot

[12:30:00] Keep fighting. We're not beaten yet.

[12:30:05] [Music]

[12:30:35] We lost the

[12:30:40] mother. The nightmares are endless.

[12:30:44] Born from an old hatred that still seeds

[12:30:48] in the

[12:30:49] dark. The children of Rakis, it is not

[12:30:54] their fault, but their father's

[12:30:57] fathers. See how we bleed to mend the

[12:31:00] wounds they inflicted.

[12:31:04] They are still fighting beside you,

[12:31:06] friend. Tell me, do you know where Shur

[12:31:10] is? I must find him before this worsens.

[12:31:16] to the west. If you move quickly, you

[12:31:20] will reach him. But be warned, he fights

[12:31:23] like a bullweis and whose calf has been

[12:31:26] stolen. Where he is, the mists will be

[12:31:29] at their thickest,

[12:31:32] and it is unlikely he will leave easily.

[12:31:38] A fair warning. Return to Sentinel's

[12:31:42] watch. I will see to shorter safety.

[12:32:06] [Music]

[12:32:21] A life of adventure has served you well.

[12:32:24] I now see why Oza spoke so highly of

[12:32:26] you. Well, any praise from Oza, I will

[12:32:29] gladly accept. You're sure? Yes.

[12:32:33] Captain Veric was worried for your

[12:32:35] safety. We should head back to the watch

[12:32:37] and discuss strategy.

[12:32:41] As good of a man as Veric is, he and the

[12:32:44] children of Rakis do not have the

[12:32:46] interests of Zane at heart. The Zakarum

[12:32:49] unleashed this terror. And again, it

[12:32:52] falls to my people to clean up their

[12:32:55] mess. I called for you because I know

[12:32:58] you can be trusted. You have proven it

[12:33:00] with deeds. I need you to help me to

[12:33:02] save Essel Kavasha and the others.

[12:33:05] They're still in the monastery, held

[12:33:06] captive beyond the blackened

[12:33:09] mists. If we wait, they die. But you and

[12:33:12] I can save them. A mantra given by the

[12:33:15] great patriarch Sladan can help us. But

[12:33:18] I cannot do it alone. What is your plan?

[12:33:22] Come beyond this far and within the

[12:33:24] fallen temple is a statue of Slion. We

[12:33:28] must reach

[12:33:29] it.

[12:33:30] [Music]

[12:33:45] Heat. Heat.

[12:34:03] Death is inevitable.

[12:34:06] Ever since the shard was stolen by that

[12:34:08] traitor, Travik, mists have continued to

[12:34:11] spread.

[12:34:19] Only Slidian stopped the mists before.

[12:34:32] The statue just ahead was erected in his

[12:34:35] honor. The secret is hidden. I know it.

[12:34:50] Fear not the end. Same's power is at its

[12:34:54] strongest here near the summit. The

[12:34:57] mountains memory is long and it will

[12:34:59] reveal to us truths lost to

[12:35:02] [Music]

[12:35:05] history. Those are hauntingly familiar

[12:35:08] words, my friend.

[12:35:10] spoke to them once before. Yes. Well, I

[12:35:15] am certain she never tried something

[12:35:17] like this. Eons passed, the gods created

[12:35:21] the land. Man was formed from earth,

[12:35:24] then fire, wind, and

[12:35:27] water. Zim, show your children that

[12:35:31] which we have forgotten. Do what you're

[12:35:33] going to, but if it doesn't work, we're

[12:35:35] returning to Sentinel's watch.

[12:35:38] Understood?

[12:35:40] If we fail, we will need far more aid

[12:35:42] than Sentinel's watch can

[12:35:47] provide. When the vision takes hold, I

[12:35:50] will see what you see, hear what you

[12:35:52] hear. Together, we must uncover the

[12:35:56] power that will destroy the mists once

[12:35:58] and for

[12:36:02] [Music]

[12:36:07] all.

[12:36:19] Prepare the invaders.

[12:36:21] Look there. Rakus' soldiers. Help my

[12:36:24] people.

[12:36:37] I cannot tell if you are reliving

[12:36:40] someone's actions or the vision is

[12:36:41] permitting yours. You must keep

[12:36:45] going. Ignorant

[12:36:47] savages. Zacharoom's life has come to

[12:36:50] save you from

[12:36:51] yourselves. If you would only let go of

[12:36:54] your pride.

[12:36:56] Bring your patriarch before me and we

[12:37:00] will end

[12:37:01] this. Submit to Rockus' rule or we will

[12:37:05] paint this mountain red and he will rule

[12:37:08] the bloody muk.

[12:37:14] [Music]

[12:37:16] We must have faith. The gods will not

[12:37:20] abandon us in our hour of need.

[12:37:24] Patriarch Sladden will know what to do.

[12:37:27] Gather the wounded. We have to leave

[12:37:30] this place.

[12:37:32] Do you see now the atrocities Verex and

[12:37:34] his ilk remain ignorant to? This is but

[12:37:37] one foul moment among thousands.

[12:37:41] [Music]

[12:37:51] You heard Lord

[12:37:53] Martinos. Offer no mercy to the wicked.

[12:37:57] [Music]

[12:38:02] Cut. I'm going to be sick. Please. I

[12:38:07] don't want to see any

[12:38:12] more over here.

[12:38:23] Martinos's madness corrupts his

[12:38:26] men. They have become uncaring

[12:38:31] monsters, cloaked in the lie of their

[12:38:35] faith. To think they call us heretics.

[12:38:40] [Music]

[12:38:44] You have to reach the

[12:38:48] patriarch. Can't help him. Escape

[12:38:50] however you

[12:38:52] can. Please. This isn't like we were

[12:38:55] told. Sladian is supposed to save Zang

[12:38:58] to stop Rakis' advance. Go to him

[12:39:01] quickly.

[12:39:04] Flee, brothers. I will hold him

[12:39:07] here. Look at yourself, Martinos.

[12:39:11] Your zeal has opened your hearts to

[12:39:15] chaos. I am the hand of Zakarun and I

[12:39:19] will tear the heresy from you.

[12:39:40] Not

[12:39:51] getting that man has given into a demon

[12:39:55] within his soul. We cannot win against

[12:39:58] such forbiddance. Go

[12:40:01] move with fuse wind.

[12:40:26] A broken bridge will only delay his

[12:40:29] rage. Malfenos has become a demon. His

[12:40:34] soul burns with a profane fury. His

[12:40:39] armies will not cease until Igoroth lies

[12:40:42] in ash. The Zakaroom's crusade must end

[12:40:47] here. Even if it costs our

[12:40:50] lives, we make for the temple. It is our

[12:40:54] last bastion of

[12:40:57] hope. Did you see that? The Zakarum

[12:41:01] Zealot gave in to demonic power. I knew

[12:41:04] they were the source of this madness.

[12:41:08] [Music]

[12:41:12] Gods. I've never seen a silent monastery

[12:41:15] like this before. My entire life, it's

[12:41:18] been lost to the mists.

[12:41:24] We make our stand here. We shall be

[12:41:28] patriots shield.

[12:41:34] I'm

[12:41:34] sneezed. This power is forbidden.

[12:41:41] Mus pull back.

[12:41:49] Run. The turn them into abominations.

[12:42:05] Keep pushing through the vision. We are

[12:42:07] close to the moment of truth. I know

[12:42:11] it must recharge.

[12:42:29] They could not seal the

[12:42:31] darkness. Their blind hatred doomed us

[12:42:34] all.

[12:42:58] One of the monsters survived. Speak to

[12:43:00] him

[12:43:09] quickly. We could not stop him.

[12:43:13] Gods forgive us. Stop who? Martinos.

[12:43:18] What has happened?

[12:43:21] Have you seen

[12:43:23] Martinos? Not

[12:43:25] yet. The patriarch. He was meditating in

[12:43:29] the

[12:43:30] monastery. As the black mist

[12:43:33] erupted, we tried to reach him, but

[12:43:36] there is no way forward.

[12:43:40] [Music]

[12:43:44] There aren't enough of us left to seal

[12:43:46] it

[12:43:48] away. The darkness is too

[12:43:51] strong. He He will kill us

[12:43:54] [Music]

[12:43:56] all. We know that we survived this

[12:43:59] useless vision. Quickly, what is beyond

[12:44:02] the door?

[12:44:05] I bear the

[12:44:07] burden. made a

[12:44:10] gut. Forgive me.

[12:44:43] Damn the

[12:44:44] Sakarum. They invaded our land, calling

[12:44:47] it their divine right. They use their

[12:44:50] faith to legitimize the horrors they

[12:44:53] unleash. Even a vulture has more

[12:44:55] respect. We will never see eye to eye.

[12:45:00] Shura, I heard Slogian through that

[12:45:03] doorway. He was begging for forgiveness.

[12:45:09] Ingarod, there are three patriarchs and

[12:45:11] matriarchs of order and three of chaos.

[12:45:15] One serves as the bridge between them.

[12:45:18] In his time, that was Sladian's

[12:45:20] role. Even in his last moments, the man

[12:45:24] sought peace.

[12:45:28] We must honor him. Put down the darkness

[12:45:32] he sought to

[12:45:33] contain. The mantra the vision has

[12:45:35] granted me is the key to our salvation.

[12:45:38] Help me one last

[12:45:43] time. There is always more to

[12:45:45] comprehend.

[12:46:08] Look at this

[12:46:09] temple. First the Zakaroom, then the

[12:46:12] burning hands.

[12:46:38] Death

[12:46:43] here

[12:46:46] by the just end.

[12:46:57] We are nearly

[12:47:08] there and

[12:47:10] rot. Ah, we are nearly there.

[12:47:36] I will hold the way open. Go quickly. My

[12:47:38] brother should still be inside.

[12:48:10] order and chaos.

[12:48:13] I was to serve as the balance between

[12:48:16] them. But the world is not

[12:48:20] balanced. The Zakarun would strike us

[12:48:24] down. Impose their order by sword and

[12:48:31] steel. To save God, let the forbidden be

[12:48:38] unleashed.

[12:48:40] I bear the burden of this terrible

[12:48:44] sin. The crusade of light will break

[12:48:49] upon my

[12:48:51] shadow. May the gods forgive me for the

[12:48:57] nightmare I am become.

[12:49:16] Someone from the

[12:49:19] outside. Please, you have to help

[12:49:25] us. The blackness are at their

[12:49:28] strongest.

[12:49:31] The

[12:49:34] nightmares

[12:49:40] unceasing gage and the others

[12:49:46] are somewhere I

[12:49:49] have

[12:49:51] please save

[12:49:54] them

[12:49:56] and do

[12:49:58] not get

[12:50:01] What it darkness?

[12:50:39] This is the longest.

[12:51:00] Chaos as found

[12:51:03] help. Oh, thank the

[12:51:06] gods. Then there is still a chance.

[12:51:10] These statues once burned with Year's

[12:51:13] flame.

[12:51:15] They can

[12:51:18] again. The darkness tries to suppress

[12:51:22] our

[12:51:24] spirits. Free our brethren from their

[12:51:28] nightmares and the light will

[12:51:33] [Music]

[12:51:38] burn. Do not let

[12:51:41] darkness consume our soul.

[12:51:45] Touch the

[12:51:47] flame and burn

[12:51:51] away our

[12:51:54] sin. What is

[12:51:56] that? The power of precious bone failed

[12:52:00] beneath the black

[12:52:03] mists. One more time.

[12:52:23] Cycle continues on.

[12:52:58] Your grave beckons.

[12:53:03] The sacer will pay for every drop of

[12:53:07] blood they have spilled.

[12:53:11] [Music]

[12:53:33] The balance is preserved.

[12:53:57] That seal I passed must be broken. But

[12:54:00] what did that creature mean by

[12:54:02] protecting sli

[12:54:25] [Applause]

[12:54:46] Charger.

[12:55:01] Die and rot.

[12:55:23] Only sacrifice shall save

[12:55:36] us.

[12:55:54] Heat. Heat.

[12:55:59] [Music]

[12:56:12] The

[12:56:13] master and you proceed no

[12:56:18] further. I answer the nightmare call.

[12:56:45] This is not your way.

[12:56:58] [Music]

[12:57:01] What is this

[12:57:03] profanity? Some form of ritual?

[12:57:43] Death is quite the teacher.

[12:57:46] Fear not the

[12:57:54] end. You behold

[12:57:59] the

[12:58:00] for you.

[12:58:16] Join me in the

[12:58:18] darkness. Who are you to be found this

[12:58:21] sacred

[12:58:24] place? I have given birth to save my

[12:58:28] people. You

[12:58:33] understand draw strength from the

[12:58:35] darkness. Only flame can burn it away.

[12:58:44] The gods have chosen

[12:58:46] you. Unthinkable.

[12:58:59] I shattered my very

[12:59:05] soul. Even the most orbiting technique

[12:59:11] will

[12:59:16] pay. The mists will spread and block out

[12:59:21] the light of Zack.

[12:59:29] As long as you

[12:59:32] survive, so too shall I.

[12:59:51] Worthy hands have shaped you.

[13:00:04] I could feel the surging darkness

[13:00:06] weaken.

[13:00:09] What is this?

[13:00:11] Indeed, taken from the eighth. This

[13:00:15] marking, this beat belonged to SL. I

[13:00:18] imply

[13:00:19] nothing. You're holding the evidence in

[13:00:22] your own hand. Sludge fought back the

[13:00:25] Zacharoom's light using a forbidden

[13:00:27] shadow. His broken soul annihilated your

[13:00:31] people and scarred the land itself.

[13:00:36] Impossible. Yet I cannot deny what I

[13:00:40] see.

[13:00:41] This bead es with a chaos I've never

[13:00:44] felt

[13:00:45] before. Look here in the

[13:00:48] cracks. The

[13:00:50] charring. It was corrupted from within.

[13:00:54] No, no more dist.

[13:01:13] The mists have receded. Old hatreds do

[13:01:16] not die

[13:01:17] easily. Those who suffer can spread

[13:01:20] suffering to their kin as much as their

[13:01:23] foes. Evil like this is not something

[13:01:26] that is vanquished with a

[13:01:28] spell. It will take

[13:01:30] work every day.

[13:01:35] I saw the children of Rakis as an enemy

[13:01:39] who took from us what was

[13:01:41] ours. And in some ways that is still

[13:01:44] true. But I could not see the guilt my

[13:01:47] people shared.

[13:01:49] Do not let grief blind you to the truth.

[13:01:53] The people of Sentinel's Watch welcomed

[13:01:55] you in your hour of need. They stood

[13:01:57] side by side with you in

[13:01:59] battle. It may not be the end of your

[13:02:02] struggles.

[13:02:03] But it is at least a start.

[13:02:07] You're awfully insightful for a cell

[13:02:09] sword. Do you know that? It's kind of

[13:02:14] infuriating. Thank you, friend. It may

[13:02:17] not have proceeded exactly as I

[13:02:19] foraw, but my friends can rest easier

[13:02:22] knowing we've saved Zane from further

[13:02:26] [Music]

[13:02:28] suffering. Slavium died for peace.

[13:02:32] It is time I learn to let my own anger

[13:02:35] go.

[13:03:15] You

[13:03:20] [Applause]

[13:03:24] take No.

[13:03:54] I must weights.

[13:04:01] The balance is

[13:04:17] preserved. Heat. Heat.

[13:04:42] [Music]

[13:05:00] Fear not the end.

[13:05:04] Foul creature.

[13:05:08] No, not you.

[13:05:18] I can pay if you can help.

[13:05:34] I need a course.

[13:06:09] Charge. Die.

[13:06:30] Your corpses are mine.

[13:06:35] [Music]

[13:07:12] Now

[13:07:16] must recharge.

[13:07:24] I must wait. It seems require

[13:08:24] Welcome back,

[13:08:26] adventurer. The nightmare hordes have

[13:08:28] begun to thin out, and my men are

[13:08:30] returning

[13:08:31] home. I'll just skip the formalities.

[13:08:34] Thank you for whatever you and your monk

[13:08:38] friends did out there.

[13:08:41] This mountain seen too much

[13:08:44] bloodshed. The nightmares are a result

[13:08:46] of atrocities committed by the Zacharoom

[13:08:49] and the misguided desperation.

[13:09:08] [Music]

[13:09:32] Hey there. It's good to see

[13:09:39] [Music]

[13:09:40] you. You do the fighting. I'll do the

[13:09:43] forging.

[13:09:49] [Music]

[13:09:59] Ah, there you are. Veric sent word of

[13:10:03] your accomplishments ahead of you. Tell

[13:10:06] forbidden magics and old hatreds spawned

[13:10:09] vile evils and nearly tore the soul of

[13:10:13] two peoples apart.

[13:10:16] A familiar tale. Still, it is good. They

[13:10:20] have found Commander Kaya and the

[13:10:22] knights were unwilling to listen. I was

[13:10:25] refused an audience outright. The king's

[13:10:29] ear is being poisoned by the nobility.

[13:10:32] And even the Whatever happens next, the

[13:10:36] powers of this world are unprepared for

[13:10:39] it. Yet, we are not without allies. I've

[13:10:44] sent word to an old friend.

[13:10:52] It's good you're here. Exquisite timing

[13:10:56] as

[13:10:57] always. I've been trying to gather

[13:11:00] allies to assist us against hell. And I

[13:11:04] finally met with some

[13:11:06] success. His name is Caron. He is an

[13:11:11] accomplished mage from Shansai.

[13:11:14] I met his teacher in far off Kurass when

[13:11:17] we were on the trail of the great evil

[13:11:21] Mesto. And well, I suspect he'll be

[13:11:26] [Music]

[13:11:37] Stay the hell away from that ship.

[13:11:41] Ren, what's happened? We just

[13:11:43] disembarked the black bower and the

[13:11:45] guards all but shut the docks down.

[13:11:47] Apparently a few sea beasts made it

[13:11:49] aboard. Some outlander with a

[13:11:54] [Music]

[13:12:05] starve. At least someone in this city

[13:12:08] isn't paralyzed by fear.

[13:12:29] If the stars have aligned above you, as

[13:12:32] I

[13:12:33] suspect, we are fated. Yes, there you

[13:12:37] are.

[13:12:42] Ah, you've gone gray, young man. Not

[13:12:46] nearly as gray as I should,

[13:12:48] [Music]

[13:13:02] Elder. Welcome to West March, my friend.

[13:13:06] And not a moment too soon. How was your

[13:13:10] journey? Uneventful, unlike theirs. By

[13:13:14] way of

[13:13:15] introductions, this is Caron, formerly

[13:13:19] of the Yeshari Sanctum. He has spent

[13:13:22] much of his life studying the cults of

[13:13:25] the great evils and vowed to do

[13:13:28] everything in his power to prevent

[13:13:31] Diablo's return. It's nice to meet your

[13:13:34] acquaintance, Caution. We could use your

[13:13:36] help. That's apparent. Since the threat

[13:13:39] is at bay, you should see what the

[13:13:41] sailors know. Alert the guard, then join

[13:13:45] us. I'll prepare a divination in Kane's

[13:13:49] [Music]

[13:13:51] workshop. Any idea how these monsters

[13:13:53] got aboard your ship? We found some

[13:13:56] bodies floating north of the Gulf. It

[13:13:59] wasn't right leaving them, so we brought

[13:14:02] them aboard. As am I. I'll let the watch

[13:14:05] commander know.

[13:14:06] [Music]

[13:14:39] Commander, I've just come from the

[13:14:41] docks. There were monsters aboard the

[13:14:44] Black Bower. They attacked Captain Rim's

[13:14:47] passengers before we stopped them.

[13:14:50] The Black Bower, you say? A shame, but

[13:14:54] it sounds like you have it more or le

[13:14:56] I'd appreciate it if you kept things

[13:14:59] quiet.

[13:15:00] There might be reason to panic.

[13:15:05] I shall see how Kane and Kun are

[13:15:06] fairing.

[13:15:09] [Music]

[13:15:38] A

[13:15:47] challenge to

[13:15:50] recharge.

[13:16:09] Heat.

[13:16:27] Heat.

[13:16:57] Heat up here.

[13:17:13] There we

[13:17:27] go.

[13:17:45] Heat. Heat.

[13:18:10] [Music]

[13:18:12] Surprisingly, something before

[13:18:24] [Music]

[13:18:35] Heat. Heat.

[13:18:42] [Music]

[13:19:12] That

[13:19:18] [Music]

[13:19:27] is

[13:19:33] heat.

[13:19:55] Heat. Heat.

[13:20:23] [Music]

[13:20:30] world.

[13:20:46] That requires a

[13:21:12] Heat.

[13:21:42] Heat. Heat.

[13:22:06] My lesson is over.

[13:22:10] Need something report?

[13:22:13] Most appreciated.

[13:22:19] [Music]

[13:23:09] Heat. Heat.

[13:23:28] Not

[13:23:39] yet. Requires a corpse.

[13:24:05] That seems too much.

[13:24:32] No, not

[13:24:40] yet. Give it more.

[13:24:54] I must

[13:25:02] wait. Not

[13:25:15] yet.

[13:25:27] Heat. Heat.

[13:25:45] I need a course.

[13:25:49] Yes. Need

[13:25:52] something. Most appreciate.

[13:26:00] [Music]

[13:26:55] Yes, things are clearer now.

[13:27:11] [Music]

[13:27:52] Hey, enemy.

[13:28:03] Heat. Heat.

[13:28:26] or

[13:28:31] death without a corpse. I

[13:28:37] cannot Heat. Heat. Heat.

[13:29:15] Your grave beckons.

[13:29:20] [Music]

[13:29:29] Death is quite the

[13:29:34] future. Give it more

[13:29:42] time.

[13:29:46] Heat.

[13:30:20] Heat. Heat.

[13:30:49] [Music]

[13:32:08] Haha. Yes. Your reputation precedes you,

[13:32:11] friend.

[13:32:44] [Music]

[13:33:00] Heat. Heat.

[13:33:06] [Music]

[13:33:19] Use that well, friend.

[13:33:23] [Music]

[13:33:45] No secrets. I hope I was of assistance.

[13:33:49] [Music]

[13:35:18] Every item has a history. When you need

[13:35:21] my knowledge, I will be here.

[13:35:27] [Music]

[13:35:41] [Applause]

[13:35:48] You've got the gold. I've got the goods.

[13:35:56] Come back if you need some. Looking for

[13:35:58] something in particular?

[13:36:07] [Music]

[13:36:19] A good deal there. Most appreciated.

[13:36:50] [Music]

[13:36:58] Amen.

[13:36:59] [Music]

[13:37:49] Oh, you are

[13:37:52] [Music]

[13:38:08] every item. I hope I was of assistance.

[13:38:12] [Music]

[13:39:24] Heat. Heat.

[13:39:33] [Music]

[13:39:59] You

[13:40:11] [Music]

[13:40:23] you there

[13:40:25] you come back if you acquire something

[13:40:28] interesting. thing.

[13:40:56] [Music]

[13:41:01] Oh, hello. That's

[13:41:04] [Music]

[13:41:28] Heat. Heat.

[13:41:30] [Music]

[13:41:54] Thank you. And come again. I

[13:41:58] [Music]

[13:42:04] I only work with the finest of material.

[13:42:09] Ah, yes.

[13:42:11] Oh, hello.

[13:42:17] [Music]

[13:42:28] Oh, I see. Well, please come again.

[13:42:33] [Music]

[13:43:07] Ah, yes. Welcome to my est. Nothing

[13:43:10] worth my time, then. Oh, hello. Come

[13:43:30] on. Here we are.

[13:43:39] [Music]

[13:44:23] Nothing else I can help you with.

[13:44:25] [Music]

[13:44:45] What do you need,

[13:44:48] friend? You do the fighting. I'll do the

[13:44:51] forging.

[13:45:03] every item. I hope I was of assistance.

[13:45:08] [Music]

[13:45:47] you there.

[13:45:49] [Music]

[13:46:06] You'll be

[13:46:08] [Music]

[13:46:13] back. You there.

[13:46:16] [Music]

[13:46:46] Oh. Techology work

[13:46:48] [Music]

[13:47:05] there. Every glad to be of service, my

[13:47:09] friend.

[13:47:15] [Music]

[13:47:20] What do you need,

[13:47:22] friend? I hope that can

[13:47:32] help. You do the fighting, I'll do the

[13:47:35] forging.

[13:47:37] [Music]

[13:48:20] Heat. Heat.

[13:48:24] [Music]

[13:48:56] be safe. All right.

[13:49:12] You do the fighting, I'll do the

[13:49:15] [Music]

[13:49:24] forging. There might be reason to panic.

[13:49:29] I should see how Kane and Kun are

[13:49:31] fairing.

[13:49:34] No time to waste. We will peer through

[13:49:36] the stars and relate what we see. You

[13:49:39] are only to observe. Touch nothing.

[13:49:53] [Music]

[13:50:21] I rarely divide. with such

[13:50:24] clarity. I don't know where this is, but

[13:50:27] it's happening right now. Look around

[13:50:30] us. Search for details. The

[13:50:33] architecture, the armor of the soldiers,

[13:50:36] similar to the guards in West

[13:50:38] Maratch. Where are we?

[13:50:44] [Music]

[13:50:47] The Lord of Terror has heard your

[13:50:50] promises. He will not forget them. Take

[13:50:54] Storm Point. Find the shard and you will

[13:50:58] join me at his

[13:51:00] side.

[13:51:02] Hold. I know not how, but we are being

[13:51:06] watched from beyond the veil. There is

[13:51:09] an odd aura about you. What have you?

[13:51:18] We need to flee through the

[13:51:37] gate. She sended our astral connection.

[13:51:41] How? We need to get back before our

[13:51:47] souls split from our bodies. Not even a

[13:51:50] practice torn mage could see through my

[13:51:53] projection. Something about your soul

[13:51:56] shines like a beacon here.

[13:52:00] Whatever rock you hide beneath, I will

[13:52:03] find you.

[13:52:05] Hold them back. I will pass through.

[13:52:10] Connect the sea to myself.

[13:52:13] [Music]

[13:52:18] The terror is ready. Go.

[13:52:33] No, not far

[13:52:35] enough. We can't be trapped here.

[13:52:39] All creation is Diablo's claim. Then why

[13:52:44] doesn't he have

[13:52:58] it? Can't let them follow. I've opened

[13:53:02] another tear. Move now.

[13:53:13] We're getting closer, but the enemy is

[13:53:16] still at our

[13:53:18] heels. I have an army of lives to spend,

[13:53:23] so spend them.

[13:53:31] Aron, they're not stopping. Can you send

[13:53:33] us further away? The tear's already

[13:53:36] opened. A few moments more.

[13:53:44] The tear is ready.

[13:53:57] Go. caution.

[13:54:30] We're just

[13:54:49] past by the highest heavens. That was

[13:54:53] quite a return

[13:54:55] trip. What did you

[13:54:58] [Music]

[13:55:02] see? A world stone shard is in a place

[13:55:07] called Stormpoint, invaded by an army of

[13:55:10] Diablo's

[13:55:11] cultists. Find it before they do.

[13:55:14] Nothing else matters.

[13:55:17] [Music]

[13:55:21] You're hurt. Come, I'll get you to a

[13:55:30] healer. We'll inform the guard. Friend,

[13:55:34] if Rem is able to sail, you should make

[13:55:38] for Storm Point

[13:55:40] immediately, wherever it is.

[13:55:48] [Music]

[13:55:50] My insight grows.

[13:56:00] [Music]

[13:56:02] Captain Ren, I need to go to Storm Point

[13:56:05] as quickly as you can. Do you know it?

[13:56:08] Not officially, but yeah, for you I do.

[13:56:12] It's not far from that last voyage of

[13:56:14] mine. I should be able to scrape up a

[13:56:16] scant crew, but I'm not sticking around.

[13:56:19] I owe you a favor.

[13:56:22] At this point, I'd say you owe me

[13:56:30] several. To the west, where iron defies

[13:56:34] the sea, the wolf of West March hides

[13:56:39] its spoils.

[13:56:41] Its guardian's long watch comes to an

[13:56:44] ignominious

[13:56:46] end as evil cascades

[13:56:50] downward in flame and

[13:57:00] fury. Terror has been unleashed.

[13:57:10] Fear and despair spread like wildfire,

[13:57:13] consuming innocent and guilty

[13:57:17] alike. Blood stains

[13:57:24] still. Relentlessly they marched towards

[13:57:28] the

[13:57:31] shard, a beacon of unearly power.

[13:57:37] Drowned by hungering

[13:57:47] [Music]

[13:57:48] tides, wreckage

[13:57:51] everywhere and blood on the

[13:57:55] wind. I hope there's still time to do

[13:57:58] something. Wars and arrows are nothing

[13:58:00] to his greatest servants. Dread herald

[13:58:04] of Diablo.

[13:58:05] Take your throne above us. Let her alone

[13:58:10] in the garden of

[13:58:28] flesh. Give it. The great one will sniff

[13:58:31] out the heart of

[13:58:33] creation. and we will seize it together.

[13:58:37] You're not one of the nation or their

[13:58:41] wealths interest. There are hordes of

[13:58:44] them enough to trip over the shard. I

[13:58:47] have to

[13:59:00] hurry.

[13:59:07] Another foul

[13:59:10] ritual. Even the

[13:59:13] air. The cult of terror is near. I hear

[13:59:17] the anguish in their wings.

[13:59:41] Fear not the end.

[14:00:02] I must wait.

[14:00:07] Seems death.

[14:00:35] Don't Don't cut my

[14:00:42] [Music]

[14:00:47] knees. You're one fortress guard. Tell

[14:00:51] me what happened.

[14:00:52] Fine.

[14:01:02] Your grave

[14:01:04] beckons. You're one.

[14:01:06] I'm I am.

[14:01:09] Yes. They hit the shores with a bigger

[14:01:11] force than I ever saw in my life. I had

[14:01:14] to

[14:01:18] hide. They were taking captives.

[14:01:21] drowning people, cutting their throats

[14:01:24] and pushing them

[14:01:26] under. They'll be near the fortress by

[14:01:28] now. Even more of them are crawling out

[14:01:31] of those portals. Please, if you

[14:01:35] can. If I disrupt the ritual, that

[14:01:38] should at least stop their

[14:01:46] reinforcements. The shard is ours,

[14:01:49] faithless one.

[14:01:51] Spare yourself the agony of watching his

[14:01:55] fist close around it. Are they gone?

[14:02:00] I've only dealt with these portals. It

[14:02:03] won't be safe here for

[14:02:05] long. Tell me, what's the quickest path

[14:02:08] to the fortress?

[14:02:11] It's westways up the ridge.

[14:02:15] There's

[14:02:16] uh a couple of shanties set up for those

[14:02:19] who can't serve in the guard. Husbands,

[14:02:22] can you make it to the shore? It should

[14:02:24] be safer there.

[14:02:28] Get out of here quick.

[14:02:34] Did you kill them? All of us requires

[14:02:39] it. Well,

[14:02:40] not I really deserved it.

[14:02:53] The balance is preserved.

[14:03:03] I was going to get him if you had.

[14:03:05] Thanks for saving me the

[14:03:08] trouble. What do you want from here? Too

[14:03:10] much fancy armor. Who in the watery

[14:03:14] hells are you?

[14:03:19] I should be asking you that. What are

[14:03:22] you doing sneaking around on a

[14:03:24] battlefield? You're old enough to see

[14:03:26] how dangerous this is. Calm down,

[14:03:29] oldtimer. I can take care of myself. I

[14:03:32] just didn't want to fight five crazies

[14:03:34] at once, is all. I heard them cutting on

[14:03:36] the soldiers earlier. Bunch of mad sods.

[14:03:39] It's the one time we get visitors, and

[14:03:41] it's a cult.

[14:03:44] I'm going after them. Head up the shore

[14:03:46] and avoid anyone you see.

[14:03:49] Or or how about this? We work together.

[14:03:54] You're looking for a shortcut to the

[14:03:55] fortress, and I know every shortcut

[14:03:57] there is. Help me help.

[14:04:01] No. Go somewhere safe. Tell me

[14:04:04] everything, and I'll look for them.

[14:04:06] You're not listening to

[14:04:09] me, Captain.

[14:04:11] We have to pay them back. What

[14:04:15] captives? What are they after? I

[14:04:17] overheard them asking about some

[14:04:19] treasure called the heart of creation.

[14:04:21] That's stupid. We don't even have real

[14:04:23] houses here. When they get an answer

[14:04:25] they don't like, they just

[14:04:29] say, then they

[14:04:32] start slow.

[14:04:36] my little sister. She's She's been gone

[14:04:40] a couple of days. I'm not sure if

[14:04:45] Your corpses are mine.

[14:05:14] Help me hurt them. I know you

[14:05:20] can.

[14:05:23] No, I I found somebody who can help us.

[14:05:28] They

[14:05:28] shackled almost

[14:05:30] everybody went north as many don't

[14:05:35] fight.

[14:05:40] I'm sorry,

[14:05:42] Esmond. If it's what you want, I'll help

[14:05:46] you find

[14:05:47] Fern. We'll pay them back.

[14:05:53] Good. To the north. That's near the

[14:05:56] planks. There's a look for a king. I

[14:05:59] need to take care of their rights. I

[14:06:02] know you don't have time, but there's

[14:06:03] nobody

[14:06:05] else. Look no more on day or

[14:06:08] night. Drift in the sea ever

[14:06:11] more. The pool of waters warm and

[14:06:14] bright. Lights merry.

[14:06:23] [Music]

[14:06:42] The heart is faint, but

[14:06:45] closer west somewhere in depth.

[14:06:57] Death. I need a cause for

[14:07:01] that. Death is

[14:07:11] inevitable.

[14:07:13] Hello. Are you a friend?

[14:07:32] the balance. I heard the cultists took

[14:07:36] captives

[14:07:37] nearby. Are you part of Esmond's group?

[14:07:40] You're with Esmond? Yes. Yes, I I know

[14:07:44] him. Thank the ancients he's alive. The

[14:07:48] court took over the

[14:07:49] planks. I I barely made it

[14:07:52] out. They torture

[14:07:55] people. Read our our

[14:07:59] endrails. Draw maps in our

[14:08:03] blood. I I don't know what they're

[14:08:05] after, but the keep won't

[14:08:08] hold. That monster they have could fly

[14:08:11] over the highest walls on the continent.

[14:08:16] I I need to get away from here. If you

[14:08:19] see Esmond, that's on the way to Esmin's

[14:08:23] cave. Maybe there are more survivors.

[14:08:39] [Music]

[14:08:43] Come here.

[14:08:49] [Applause]

[14:09:16] We didn't kill everyone. Tell

[14:09:30] Arines. This one's blood will paint

[14:09:33] volumes.

[14:09:37] The rituals protecting the altar.

[14:09:41] Servering its ties should solve that.

[14:09:56] [Music]

[14:10:45] I hear you sneaking around,

[14:10:47] Esmond. You need to work on that. Why?

[14:10:51] You always distract him.

[14:10:57] I met a man named

[14:10:58] Poso. He seemed to think the cultists

[14:11:01] were bringing their captives here, but

[14:11:03] they killed so many of us. Poso found

[14:11:06] this before he left here.

[14:11:09] He

[14:11:13] wanted

[14:11:15] first. She wouldn't leave it. And if you

[14:11:19] don't want to go any further, you don't

[14:11:20] have

[14:11:21] to. Where's your shortcut? I'm coming

[14:11:24] with you. Otherwise, you'll probably

[14:11:25] drown. Smash the altar and I'll show

[14:11:27] you.

[14:11:34] Nice work. They can't hide from us

[14:11:37] anymore.

[14:11:49] What are you doing? Where's the cave?

[14:11:53] down. Just hold your breath and kick

[14:11:55] your legs. Don't

[14:12:01] panic.

[14:12:03] Stinks.

[14:12:05] Blood. I've never smelled so much all at

[14:12:10] once. I

[14:12:12] have. Stay out of sight. They're here

[14:12:16] somewhere.

[14:12:22] Bastards. You're all

[14:12:32] right. That's her

[14:12:35] necklace.

[14:12:36] She She had to get away. F

[14:12:42] stupid. She should have listened.

[14:12:48] Unbelievable.

[14:12:50] Look at all of them. No, no,

[14:12:53] no. How they are more in death than they

[14:12:58] ever were in

[14:13:09] life. Not yet.

[14:13:17] I will not. Sicard. I promised it would

[14:13:22] be his. May the

[14:13:24] death all my

[14:13:31] bloods the way to the

[14:13:37] heart. It's collapsing. We need to go

[14:13:41] now. Follow me. The waves will bring us

[14:13:44] up. We're close.

[14:14:13] Death is inevitable.

[14:14:22] [Music]

[14:14:56] A dead end. Keep going down. Trust me.

[14:15:00] We just need to get to where the water's

[14:15:01] flowing fast.

[14:15:30] [Music]

[14:15:53] The tremors are getting worse. Hold on.

[14:15:58] [Applause]

[14:16:24] [Music]

[14:16:30] We're nowhere near the keep entrance.

[14:16:32] Oh, damn it. I

[14:16:50] We're nowhere near the keep

[14:16:52] entrance. I have an idea.

[14:16:56] What are you talking about? A big ship

[14:16:58] like that carries cargo. Sometimes the

[14:17:01] explosive kind. We could go through

[14:17:03] this. It's thoroughly wrecked. probably

[14:17:05] infested with sea slime. Nobody

[14:17:08] scavengers here. They're too scared.

[14:17:10] Let's go in.

[14:17:22] Look, more of those cult buckets were

[14:17:25] here. It's going to be dangerous.

[14:17:28] The fortress is ours. It's only a matter

[14:17:31] of time.

[14:17:33] Let yourselves

[14:17:35] go. I offer a king's ransom in

[14:17:39] blood. Show me they who have touched the

[14:17:44] heart. Man in a cage of steel

[14:17:50] with a beast at his side.

[14:18:03] Cage of

[14:18:04] steel. There's an old prison at the

[14:18:07] fortress. They This looks like right

[14:18:09] behind you. It's

[14:18:11] untouched. Just lie in here.

[14:18:17] Violation.

[14:18:20] Treasure. The ship is mine. The cargo is

[14:18:26] mine. Obey or drown.

[14:18:32] You're dead. What do you need it for?

[14:18:40] The

[14:18:42] t will drag you down.

[14:18:48] It might still be intact.

[14:18:51] Drift in the sea ever more. You old

[14:18:53] scut. I'm taking your stuff.

[14:19:24] Look at it. I told you it'll be strong

[14:19:28] enough to make a mess. Careful with

[14:19:31] that. Here, the explosion should break

[14:19:34] through the south wall and any other

[14:19:36] defenses they put up. Fern and I used to

[14:19:38] sneak into the prison. If you can get

[14:19:39] into the keep,

[14:19:41] so do you have what you

[14:19:44] need? There are probably going to be

[14:19:45] guards there that want your help. We

[14:19:48] should split

[14:19:50] up.

[14:19:53] Sure you don't want to come with me? I

[14:19:56] can protect more than one person at a

[14:19:58] time. I have to keep looking for

[14:20:01] Fern. And I know I'm slowing you down.

[14:20:04] You're slowing me down, too. But but if

[14:20:06] you find her first,

[14:20:10] then the balance will see her protected.

[14:20:19] Step lightly, Esma. There's a chance I

[14:20:22] can still catch up to the cult if I go

[14:20:24] in through the south of the

[14:20:43] fortress. No space left.

[14:20:47] The great cycle continu

[14:21:19] The balance is preserved.

[14:21:35] I

[14:21:45] cannot

[14:21:47] wait

[14:21:57] creature death.

[14:22:26] The south wall. The cult's already

[14:22:28] inside.

[14:22:30] Breaking in shouldn't make anything

[14:22:43] worse. It actually

[14:22:52] works. What was that? Oh,

[14:22:55] you hail uh soldier.

[14:23:06] Death claim. You

[14:23:10] looks like you broke our wall.

[14:23:14] No, I'm here to help. Spotting for

[14:23:17] flyers. Running reports back to the

[14:23:19] commander. Occasionally getting our feet

[14:23:21] locked off the ankles. Tell me how to

[14:23:23] get to the prison and I'll help you with

[14:23:25] the demons. Honest. Sure. We'll take

[14:23:28] anybody who's offering. There's only one

[14:23:30] way to the prison. We keep it good and

[14:23:32] sealed up. You want to head to the park.

[14:23:35] Thank you.

[14:23:37] Keep your sword sharp. You can still win

[14:23:41] this battle.

[14:23:52] Your grave beckons.

[14:24:09] [Applause]

[14:24:15] the bridge. The prison shouldn't be too

[14:24:17] far off. Look to the sky. No.

[14:24:48] There's nothing I can do to stop

[14:24:50] that. I need to move before the cult

[14:24:53] takes the entire keep.

[14:25:02] [Music]

[14:25:25] I must win.

[14:25:37] Your corpses are mine.

[14:25:45] I can still

[14:25:46] fight. Not dead yet.

[14:25:55] You like there is no escape.

[14:26:01] You're not one of them.

[14:26:03] Well, maybe we've got a chance. I'm

[14:26:06] looking for the

[14:26:07] commander. Can you stand?

[14:26:10] Yeah, I

[14:26:14] think you should be in the great hall.

[14:26:19] Where is the man in the cage? The one

[14:26:21] with the shard. Bring him here or the

[14:26:24] dark lord will drink your terror of the

[14:26:26] for days.

[14:26:29] Get

[14:26:35] before who they're looking for. I have

[14:26:38] to go quickly.

[14:27:03] Too many bodies. Have they already

[14:27:05] cleaned this place?

[14:27:13] You were told to hand over the

[14:27:16] stone. Aranes was very

[14:27:23] clear. As you ride in the dark lords

[14:27:27] more, remember your pride.

[14:27:36] [Music]

[14:27:52] At least they haven't found the shard

[14:27:54] yet. I need to find the commander fast.

[14:27:57] He should be near if he's anywhere.

[14:28:14] Halt. How did you get up here?

[14:28:18] Let me speak to your commander. I know

[14:28:21] where the cult is headed and I can help

[14:28:23] stop them.

[14:28:29] Another

[14:28:30] adventurer.

[14:28:31] Truly wait behind you, stranger.

[14:28:36] [Applause]

[14:28:47] Look at that. Quite the fighter, aren't

[14:28:50] you? All right, I'm convinced. I'll take

[14:28:54] you to Kenton.

[14:28:59] So, you're the one who slew that mad

[14:29:02] priestess. We owe you more than I can

[14:29:04] repay. She's been ripping us out like

[14:29:07] weeds. That beast of theirs owns the

[14:29:11] skies. And on the walls, everywhere we

[14:29:14] look, it's hell's mouth wide open and

[14:29:18] grinning. Whatever you I've destroyed

[14:29:21] their portals. Now, I need to get into

[14:29:24] the old prison. If they find the shard

[14:29:26] there, this will get far worse. Again

[14:29:30] with the prison. You're the second

[14:29:32] savior of Storm Point asking after it

[14:29:34] today. Who's the first? Calls himself

[14:29:38] Zam. Cut down a halfozen cultists in the

[14:29:41] halls without breaking a sweat. He

[14:29:43] should be up on the parapits now. We'd

[14:29:46] be lucky to have you working together.

[14:30:05] Well, I shall keep some stock back

[14:30:08] should you have second

[14:30:18] thoughts.

[14:30:32] surprisingly enjoyable.

[14:30:36] I am overburdened.

[14:30:38] Oh, fabulous. Bring your relics, Aisha.

[14:31:02] How many you

[14:31:11] need?

[14:31:31] Heat. Heat.

[14:32:44] How many you need?

[14:32:49] Welcome to Storm Point K. You know, I

[14:32:51] don't see anyone else waiting to dig

[14:32:53] through your

[14:32:54] level.

[14:33:18] Heat.

[14:33:21] down.

[14:34:39] Welcome to you know I don't see anyone

[14:34:42] else welcome

[14:34:57] Bring your relic.

[14:35:11] Zam, I hear that you have turned the

[14:35:14] battle in ways these people could

[14:35:17] not. This makes us the

[14:35:20] same. Let us fix our purpose against the

[14:35:23] fanatics. They seek this fortress and

[14:35:25] the prison below it by air and by sea.

[14:35:28] And I cannot guard

[14:35:30] both. If we are

[14:35:32] too then what's your stake in all this?

[14:35:37] You're clearly not with the

[14:35:40] guard. You have looked into the eyes of

[14:35:43] these fanatics.

[14:35:46] Yes. They wallow in

[14:35:48] sin like animals in mud. They are

[14:35:52] guilty. They are

[14:35:55] stained. Terror once again.

[14:36:00] I will distract you. My charge is the

[14:36:02] air, yours to see. Go

[14:36:07] [Music]

[14:36:19] swiftly. It looks like it's headed

[14:36:22] toward the prison. We're lucky.

[14:36:27] What it's after is in that prison. Let

[14:36:30] me

[14:36:31] follow. As long as it's distracted, you

[14:36:34] should be safe.

[14:36:36] Evil festers down there. We wouldn't

[14:36:40] have sealed it shut this long

[14:36:42] otherwise. I hope you know what you're

[14:36:44] doing.

[14:37:29] [Music]

[14:37:38] Of course, Evil is rarely sealed away

[14:37:42] with

[14:37:44] impermanence. Place it massive. They

[14:37:47] could have locked an entire army out.

[14:37:52] Die

[14:38:18] and your time.

[14:38:35] Death is

[14:38:40] patient. Your corpses are mine.

[14:39:07] die and rot.

[14:39:11] I must wait. It seems without a corpse I

[14:39:14] cannot

[14:39:20] Death is inevitable.

[14:39:24] Are you a

[14:39:26] person? Hello?

[14:39:35] I'm called Fern. Can you help me? You

[14:39:39] could distract the monsters, maybe.

[14:39:42] Fern, your brother's looking for you.

[14:39:45] He said he's I'm sorry. He didn't get

[14:39:49] killed in eight. He's

[14:39:53] safe. He said he wasn't going to let a

[14:39:55] bunch of hedge pigs take our home. Then

[14:39:57] he I had to run for a long time. And I

[14:40:01] hid here, but there's so many

[14:40:03] monsters. I'm not supposed to fight

[14:40:05] unless they catch me.

[14:40:08] He's safe. And I'll get you to

[14:40:11] him. Just stay close.

[14:40:14] Alo

[14:40:35] [Music]

[14:40:47] No, not yet.

[14:40:54] That ability

[14:41:19] The

[14:41:20] balance is preserved.

[14:41:44] You must return.

[14:41:58] I know that voice.

[14:42:05] Esme, where are

[14:42:08] you? You idiot.

[14:42:30] You said I would get killed and ate. You

[14:42:33] You screamed at me. You said I was

[14:42:36] useless. You pushed

[14:42:38] me. You You always tell me what to do.

[14:42:42] Hey,

[14:42:44] look. The monsters don't care who they

[14:42:48] hurt. They don't care that you're I

[14:42:50] don't forgive

[14:42:51] you. I'm not going to ever unless you

[14:42:55] know where I can find a man in a cage of

[14:42:58] steel. The best thing you can do. That's

[14:43:00] the warden. His room had a big steel

[14:43:03] cage in it. I can show you. Absolutely.

[14:43:07] Don't treat us like babies. Let us pay

[14:43:10] you

[14:43:11] back.

[14:43:12] Besides, she can't swim. We're not

[14:43:16] getting out of here without you.

[14:43:27] There is always more to comprehend.

[14:43:38] That's his room

[14:43:40] there. He was always nice to me. Keep us

[14:43:44] safe.

[14:44:05] [Applause]

[14:44:07] in a cage of steel with a beast at his

[14:44:12] side. Very well.

[14:44:22] Don't worry. I'll protect you. Fern, you

[14:44:24] two stay right here. Hide. And if you

[14:44:28] see anything that scares

[14:44:36] you, he's twisted inside and out. How

[14:44:41] long has he been like this?

[14:44:48] [Applause]

[14:44:50] [Music]

[14:44:58] The

[14:45:00] heart it

[14:45:02] beats. I held

[14:45:05] it clean.

[14:45:16] It is mine. It is mine. My

[14:45:26] one

[14:45:39] tap

[14:45:43] down that beast, it was walked by the

[14:45:47] stone, too.

[14:45:50] We hid like you said.

[14:45:52] Where was it? I didn't see anything.

[14:46:01] Run. No. No.

[14:46:08] No. Fan.

[14:46:15] F. Help me get this crater up right now.

[14:46:26] It has a She can't even swim. She Wait,

[14:46:30] Ement.

[14:46:43] Don't. I'll go after her. Give her back.

[14:46:47] I have to. I have to.

[14:46:54] You take the beast's attention away.

[14:46:57] While it's focused on you, I will find

[14:47:00] them. Go now. I'll come to you when I

[14:47:03] have the children. You'd better.

[14:47:12] Over here, beast.

[14:47:17] That got its

[14:47:37] attention.

[14:47:41] Heat. Heat.

[14:47:56] I have her. Come here quickly. I'm going

[14:48:00] back for the void.

[14:48:05] Help me.

[14:48:13] [Music]

[14:48:19] Fear guide your every

[14:48:26] move. You could have spared yourself so

[14:48:30] much.

[14:48:41] Stay by danger.

[14:48:53] fortress. They can't carry it far.

[14:48:56] They'd be at Diablo's side if they

[14:48:58] could. Bring it to the bride of hell.

[14:49:02] She may need longer to prepare its

[14:49:04] journey. If you take it, I'll follow. No

[14:49:09] matter where you

[14:49:10] run, save yourself the

[14:49:17] time. You think to frighten

[14:49:21] me more than the lord of terror himself.

[14:49:25] I will show you

[14:49:29] fear. Freeze from your throne and burn

[14:49:33] the sky

[14:49:36] black.

[14:49:54] Heat. Heat.

[14:50:15] A heat.

[14:50:31] from one hand to another and soon to

[14:50:35] reach

[14:50:36] Diablo. I have to tell

[14:50:39] Kashon and Kane.

[14:50:55] Zathan, are the children with you?

[14:50:59] only one. I am truly

[14:51:03] sorry. They did not deserve this. They

[14:51:06] are at top the fortress.

[14:51:16] Not again.

[14:51:20] I I I can't.

[14:51:24] He told me not to fight.

[14:51:27] He said I would get killed.

[14:51:35] Fan, I'm sorry I

[14:51:40] couldn't. I wish I could say something

[14:51:42] that would make it right. They shouldn't

[14:51:45] be allowed to do this. To take our home,

[14:51:49] to take our family. It's not fair.

[14:51:53] They should. I swear to you that the

[14:51:56] cult will face its reckoning even if you

[14:51:59] stay within these walls for

[14:52:01] years. Think about the life you want to

[14:52:04] lead.

[14:52:06] Oh, you're just like him. You're not

[14:52:08] strong enough. You have to be safe. I

[14:52:11] don't care.

[14:52:15] I'm going to hurt them.

[14:52:22] I'll get you

[14:52:24] justice. I

[14:52:26] promise. You don't have to be the one to

[14:52:29] do

[14:52:30] it. You just have to live to see

[14:52:35] it. Please.

[14:52:38] Then I'll start bringing people up here

[14:52:42] so they can be safe.

[14:52:44] But you have to stop those

[14:52:47] fanatics or I'll come stop them myself.

[14:52:53] Goodbye,

[14:52:56] brother. Drift in the sea ever more.

[14:53:01] I have haunted fanatics like these for a

[14:53:04] long time. In my homeland, we have no

[14:53:07] shortage of vile

[14:53:10] hearts. I will find their scent.

[14:53:17] We're going after them together,

[14:53:20] Zithan. Come find me when you know more.

[14:53:23] Of course. I will need your strength.

[14:53:26] Once I have their trail, I will return

[14:53:28] to you.

[14:53:33] I'm sorry. The signs grow in number.

[14:53:37] Welcome to Storm Point.

[14:54:07] [Music]

[14:54:13] Okay, Kosu, I have

[14:54:16] news and I could use your

[14:54:20] advice. Diablo's cult failed to take

[14:54:22] Storm Point keep, but

[14:54:25] they got the better of

[14:54:27] me. A massive shard of the world stone

[14:54:30] is in their hands. The shard was your

[14:54:34] objective. One island saved will not be

[14:54:36] enough if all nations fall. Dire news

[14:54:41] indeed. Yet we are fortunate you blunted

[14:54:45] their

[14:54:45] advance. Every person we help is one

[14:54:49] more we can count on. King Justinian's

[14:54:52] aid is coming to Storm Point, but it

[14:54:56] will take time. I almost had it, King.

[14:55:00] There were two orphans, Fern

[14:55:03] and and Desmond. While I was trying to

[14:55:06] save them, one of the cults leaders

[14:55:08] found the shard. Fern was surrounded by

[14:55:12] demons. I couldn't let them take her.

[14:55:15] So, you saved an orphan girl and let the

[14:55:17] shard slip away. Perhaps she can join us

[14:55:21] to watch the world burn.

[14:55:25] Where is it now? I don't

[14:55:28] know. But cartoon. They can't bring it

[14:55:32] directly to

[14:55:33] Diablo. At least not

[14:55:35] yet. I heard them

[14:55:38] talking. They need to prepare it first.

[14:55:40] And what is the nature of this

[14:55:42] preparation? How long will it take?

[14:55:44] Where will it occur? Incomplete

[14:55:47] observation leads to unexpected deaths.

[14:55:51] You are too harsh, old friend.

[14:55:54] They risked their lives and would

[14:55:57] again until our hope is dashed to

[14:56:00] nothing. We must try. Yes. On that

[14:56:05] they're supposed to bring it to a bride

[14:56:08] of

[14:56:09] hell. The cultist that ruined your

[14:56:13] ritual. If we find her, perhaps we can

[14:56:15] intercept the ones transporting the

[14:56:17] shard. A portentious title, but not one

[14:56:21] I am familiar with. If only I had more

[14:56:25] of the Herodri writings to

[14:56:28] hand. The end times are smothering

[14:56:33] sanctuary, and I cannot even name all of

[14:56:36] Hell's agents.

[14:56:41] We will prevent the Lord of Terror's

[14:56:44] return.

[14:56:48] [Music]

[14:56:53] Thank you for coming. With everything of

[14:56:56] foot, I thought it important to check.

[14:56:59] Have you located the thieves who took

[14:57:02] the world stone shard?

[14:57:05] Not yet. One of my allies is trying to

[14:57:09] track them down, but I haven't heard

[14:57:11] from him.

[14:57:13] I suspect I hope this means the shard

[14:57:18] has not reached Diablo. The signs would

[14:57:22] be far worse

[14:57:25] otherwise. But what is it that prevents

[14:57:27] them from moving more quickly?

[14:57:41] I have the beginning of an answer.

[14:57:45] Kane, this is Zitham. He fought beside

[14:57:48] me on Storm Point, and he's been trying

[14:57:50] to track down the cult of terror ever

[14:57:52] since.

[14:57:55] If you stand on the side of

[14:57:57] righteousness,

[14:57:59] Zayam, then you are counted as a friend.

[14:58:03] Thank you, Elder. The fanatics swarm

[14:58:05] even here in your city.

[14:58:08] I spoke with a watcher in the tavern who

[14:58:10] says he will identify them to you.

[14:58:25] [Music]

[14:58:40] got something you might find intriguing.

[14:58:47] [Music]

[14:59:27] Zitham said you had information for us.

[14:59:33] Zitham paid up front and decently for a

[14:59:36] stranger in a hood. So, but I'm not

[14:59:38] waiting on you hand and foot, your

[14:59:40] majesty. You get your look and I'm going

[14:59:43] after. Take a seat at the table near the

[14:59:45] stairs and I'll nod when they come down.

[14:59:48] Two West March boys. More swagger than

[14:59:51] they deserve. Can't miss them.

[15:00:05] I can't wait to visit our friends for

[15:00:07] supper. I hear they're bringing the most

[15:00:10] exquisite dish.

[15:00:12] I get all that. Did you get everything

[15:00:14] they asked for? Help me check if you're

[15:00:17] so concerned.

[15:00:18] Everything you do concerns me. You're a

[15:00:21] loud mouth.

[15:00:25] Well, I can't follow them both.

[15:00:35] [Music]

[15:00:40] I need to keep my distance or they'll

[15:00:42] realize they're being watched.

[15:00:52] Too close. He almost saw me.

[15:00:57] [Music]

[15:01:12] They've gone to ground. I'm sure the

[15:01:15] answers are inside.

[15:01:20] Oh, seems we have rats sniffing about.

[15:01:23] Hammet, don't squeal too much, rat. I'd

[15:01:27] hate for the neighbors to hear you.

[15:01:43] No other choice but to rumage through

[15:01:44] their things. That list of components

[15:01:47] they're

[15:01:51] gathering. This doesn't sound good at

[15:02:02] all. Well, I ought to search the dead.

[15:02:06] Near the township of Woreram is a

[15:02:08] cavern.

[15:02:09] sused with the energy of the

[15:02:12] stone. You are not to be a moment late.

[15:02:15] These deaths will not go unnoticed by

[15:02:17] the servants of evil.

[15:02:34] [Music]

[15:02:40] I found two members of the cults. More

[15:02:43] of them are gathering at a cave near

[15:02:45] Woreram. We should make for the town

[15:02:47] immediately.

[15:02:49] [Music]

[15:02:52] How much will Woreram

[15:02:55] endure? Those poor people, they will

[15:02:59] need your help.

[15:03:03] We will learn what the fanatics have

[15:03:05] planned and we will make an end of them.

[15:03:09] Let us

[15:03:14] go. My insight blows.

[15:03:24] [Music]

[15:03:32] It's good to see you well, friend.

[15:03:34] Corin, are you well?

[15:03:37] And have you seen anyone suspicious

[15:03:40] about? You're always right on time. The

[15:03:44] cave to the west. I don't even like to

[15:03:47] look in that direction. I'll keep the

[15:03:50] forge. What did you uncover about the

[15:03:51] cults, Aan? Anything new? Their plot to

[15:03:55] bring the shards to the burning hells

[15:03:58] did not work as they wished it to. They

[15:04:01] are fearful of punishment. Now they

[15:04:04] scurry beneath us like mice, seeking

[15:04:07] another way for the shard to reach hell.

[15:04:10] Mice always finding dark. Let us

[15:04:13] approach

[15:04:14] cautiously hear something.

[15:04:18] [Music]

[15:04:32] Scone used this

[15:04:34] place. I'm not surprised to find another

[15:04:37] cult here. Nor am

[15:04:40] I. Sin infests the land and calls the

[15:04:44] sinful.

[15:04:46] Their ritual could be underway. We need

[15:04:48] to hurry. Terror will be ascended soon.

[15:04:51] Whoever finds the key to the island will

[15:04:54] ascend by my side.

[15:04:59] Seek it out. The heart has waited too

[15:05:02] long to be made pure.

[15:05:23] They have left us a ruin. The portal

[15:05:26] looks

[15:05:27] inactive. They're a step ahead still.

[15:05:30] There must be more clues to their

[15:05:32] destination here. They are still

[15:05:35] searching. This is to our

[15:05:38] advantage. Seek the answer, and I will

[15:05:41] do likewise.

[15:05:49] Gale winds in the waters far northwest

[15:05:52] of the crater. A day of surging tides

[15:05:55] and fog. A day later, the safe looks

[15:05:59] like a map of an

[15:06:01] ocean. One I don't recognize. Over here,

[15:06:05] pieces of parchment somewhat intact.

[15:06:19] I have a suspicion about these pieces.

[15:06:33] [Music]

[15:06:47] Death claim

[15:06:53] you. This parchment is rent to shreds,

[15:06:57] but I can make out a few details yet.

[15:07:01] With repair, they should become clearer.

[15:07:04] Let me

[15:07:11] [Music]

[15:07:23] try. Ah, look at it. There are notes on

[15:07:27] the currents. Depth measurements. The

[15:07:30] forgotten sea. An expansive ocean west

[15:07:35] of Mount Arriat. Look out. Forgotten is

[15:07:38] appropriate, Elder. But it is not empty.

[15:07:42] It hides a place of this aisle and its

[15:07:45] power will be what they seek. But they

[15:07:48] lack the means to reach it.

[15:07:51] The path stone conceals it with fog and

[15:07:54] rain, and its wake is clear on these

[15:07:57] maps.

[15:07:59] Fascinating. You must tell me more of

[15:08:02] this

[15:08:03] place when days are less dire.

[15:08:12] Yes. If we reach the Puffstone before

[15:08:14] the fanatics do, we can stop their

[15:08:17] arrival.

[15:08:18] I have a ship at Storm Point, but you

[15:08:21] will need to bring sailors.

[15:08:24] Ones who have never been beaten by fear.

[15:08:30] A bit

[15:08:44] bright. The Golden Sea, eh? Sounds

[15:08:48] abysmal. Ain't any far from this den of

[15:08:50] wars.

[15:08:57] I'm not sure I need to lock eyes with

[15:08:59] the blue

[15:09:00] again.

[15:09:05] On door so clear. Those anvil swim

[15:09:08] faster than me. That's a problem. Find

[15:09:10] somebody else.

[15:09:19] [Music]

[15:09:36] Heat. Heat.

[15:09:50] Death has become

[15:10:13] [Applause]

[15:10:15] my

[15:10:17] [Applause]

[15:10:35] inside. Death is inevitable.

[15:11:05] One more time.

[15:11:17] Your grave

[15:11:30] beckons. Not yet.

[15:11:37] that

[15:11:58] ability. Death is inevitable.

[15:12:10] It is a feat to cross this waters and

[15:12:13] live. Take this truth into your heart

[15:12:26] and some will seize any chance to better

[15:12:29] their lot.

[15:12:32] steal,

[15:12:35] betray. My people were always

[15:12:39] divided, obsessed with

[15:12:42] loyalty or

[15:12:44] selfishness. But we lost

[15:12:47] ourselves and put our home in the reach

[15:12:50] of

[15:12:54] terror before we all sink into the same

[15:12:57] abyss.

[15:13:01] You must stop them from defiling what

[15:13:03] was to be

[15:13:05] paradise. Find the path

[15:13:09] [Music]

[15:13:14] stone and cut this evil out of our

[15:13:23] heart. The darkness gathers around

[15:13:26] us. I will cut it away at the source.

[15:13:29] Are you mad?

[15:13:35] I am heir to the mother's blood beholden

[15:13:39] to no one and

[15:13:41] [Music]

[15:13:43] nothing if you will not

[15:13:47] know for swear your craft and your

[15:13:50] flesh. You are mine now.

[15:13:54] Burn it to nothing.

[15:14:04] And

[15:14:19] please fast the plank.

[15:14:36] [Music]

[15:14:38] Your corpses are mine.

[15:14:49] [Music]

[15:14:59] That monster could drag me into the

[15:15:00] ocean. Need to get below.

[15:15:17] Death is quite the

[15:15:21] teacher. Help us. You have to. No more

[15:15:26] prisoners.

[15:15:39] Heat. Heat.

[15:15:46] [Music]

[15:16:02] There has to be a way to pierce its

[15:16:04] hide.

[15:16:05] We don't got the big ones soon. We're

[15:16:07] going to be drinking a lot of salt

[15:16:08] water. Even this boat's got to have

[15:16:10] thrillers.

[15:16:12] They're better than nothing. Look at

[15:16:14] those waves. Hell fats. Shoot. Shoot.

[15:16:18] Heat. Heat.

[15:16:55] Your grave

[15:17:00] beckons.

[15:17:09] Heat.

[15:17:40] Heat.

[15:18:05] Where is this

[15:18:07] place? Did anyone survive?

[15:18:12] This evil ends here.

[15:18:18] It will take more to the

[15:18:22] bank. Be free of your wful life.

[15:18:37] A

[15:19:08] Your people's blood has cooled so much.

[15:19:12] None will set foot on the ancients land

[15:19:15] again.

[15:19:17] Oh,

[15:19:20] you

[15:19:27] do not approach yourself, my

[15:19:34] judge. Honor has no home among monsters.

[15:19:38] Come, let

[15:19:43] us. Yes.

[15:20:12] [Music]

[15:20:33] We found the path stone. It wasn't easy.

[15:20:41] Once it is attuned, it will guide us to

[15:20:43] the ancients cradle while their fanatics

[15:20:46] drift in the fog. Perhaps they shall

[15:20:48] perish on their

[15:20:49] [Music]

[15:20:53] journey. Or perhaps we'll use it to

[15:20:57] ambush them and take the world stone

[15:21:00] shard. Zam, is that possible? It may be.

[15:21:06] But the past only is the artifact of a

[15:21:09] broken and misguided people. We must be

[15:21:13] careful. And how is it that you know so

[15:21:16] much of this place and its people? To

[15:21:19] catch a quarry, you must be one with the

[15:21:22] terrain. I have traveled for many years

[15:21:25] in pursuit of the

[15:21:27] wicked. It must be a burden for you to

[15:21:30] spend so long away from home.

[15:21:35] It is no burden. It is my

[15:21:38] charge. All who do evil deserve

[15:21:42] punishment. How charmingly

[15:21:47] [Music]

[15:21:50] straightforward. We should go as quickly

[15:21:52] as we can. How do we prepare the path

[15:21:56] stone? I have not heard of it being the

[15:21:58] tuned apart from the cradle. And the one

[15:22:01] who claimed it is dead.

[15:22:03] We will need to experiment. Well,

[15:22:07] cartoon is quite practiced. No need to

[15:22:10] flatter me, but I suggest we learn more

[15:22:13] of its origin. Of course, and I will

[15:22:16] begin that research

[15:22:18] immediately. Zam, would you join me and

[15:22:21] share a few of your

[15:22:24] tales? I too must prepare for a journey.

[15:22:33] Good luck. I'll be ready to depart when

[15:22:35] you're done.

[15:22:43] Too much needs to go right for this to

[15:22:46] work. Don't indulge in false

[15:22:49] confidence.

[15:22:51] You're better than that.

[15:22:54] Really? Before today, the cult of

[15:22:57] remember how long the cult has had to

[15:22:59] prepare for this moment. Our hope should

[15:23:03] be no louder than a whisper. Are you

[15:23:05] admitting that we have a chance? Don't

[15:23:08] spread it around.

[15:23:13] Surprisingly enjoyable.

[15:23:25] We have discovered how to use the paste.

[15:23:27] Talk with your sear and then let us see

[15:23:29] for the ancients cradle. It is long past

[15:23:32] time. I'll confer with Kane in caution

[15:23:34] and meet you shortly. Then I will speak

[15:23:37] with the watchers here. There may be

[15:23:39] news of the fanatic's movement.

[15:23:42] Are you certain, Kane? You aren't

[15:23:44] getting any younger.

[15:23:46] [Music]

[15:23:48] I heard the path stone is ready. What

[15:23:51] are you talking about? Caron and I were

[15:23:54] having a discussion about a rumor I want

[15:23:59] to seek out. Of course, I'll help as

[15:24:02] soon as we're back from the voyage. No,

[15:24:05] don't trouble yourself. You have more

[15:24:08] urgent work. But if you wouldn't mind a

[15:24:12] sprint to the docks. I have an associate

[15:24:15] who can help me with this. Tell him I'll

[15:24:18] meet him shortly. He will be easy to

[15:24:21] spot. A paladin of

[15:24:24] Zacharoom and proud of it. The signs are

[15:24:28] everywhere, Caron. We cannot focus on

[15:24:32] one problem at a time.

[15:24:36] [Music]

[15:24:42] Now, where is he?

[15:24:47] You must be looking for Kane. That I am.

[15:24:50] Akarat is my name. He said he'd meet you

[15:24:52] shortly. Well, there's no hurry. I'll

[15:24:54] wait for him nearby.

[15:24:57] Kane invites everyone to the workshop.

[15:25:00] Why does he have this paladin waiting

[15:25:02] outside?

[15:25:06] [Music]

[15:25:12] I was worried you were going to miss

[15:25:14] him.

[15:25:25] [Music]

[15:25:38] Is this the right pile?

[15:25:41] [Music]

[15:25:43] You all are perfectly capable without

[15:25:46] me. Ray X, Genius, Caron, your wisdom.

[15:25:52] Charie, your

[15:25:54] [Music]

[15:25:57] craft. And you've a most reliable friend

[15:26:01] on top of that. One who tends to do all

[15:26:04] the hard work. Don't forget

[15:26:07] [Music]

[15:26:12] your faith is very rarely misplaced.

[15:26:18] Ah, we were just talking about you.

[15:26:31] You're leaving? Yes. I can ignore the

[15:26:35] prophecy of the end of days no

[15:26:37] longer. There have been too many signs.

[15:26:41] I must look for answers that West March

[15:26:44] cannot offer. We all have our roles to

[15:26:47] play.

[15:26:48] And I believe yours is to stop the

[15:26:51] darkness which presently

[15:26:53] looms. There is nothing I provide which

[15:26:56] you cannot accomplish yourself.

[15:27:00] If that is your decision, I will not

[15:27:03] stand in your way. Though I may regret

[15:27:06] trying to read your script.

[15:27:09] Never change, my friend. It's been the

[15:27:13] end of days for a long time. Okay.

[15:27:15] Anything else to move?

[15:27:21] Just a few more, my boy. Good point. If

[15:27:25] I You all are far too much. I know when

[15:27:29] you've made a decision. Let me take the

[15:27:31] rest of these. I'll help.

[15:27:41] I've left my research on the world stone

[15:27:44] and a few other subjects

[15:27:46] besides. I am certain they will be of

[15:27:49] use to

[15:27:55] [Music]

[15:27:58] you and some of my own manuscripts. If

[15:28:03] you can be bothered to squint, you might

[15:28:06] learn a few new

[15:28:08] [Music]

[15:28:20] things. Save for my memories, this is

[15:28:24] all I have of Amelia and Jared. Now,

[15:28:28] would you mind taking it to the carriage

[15:28:31] outside?

[15:28:37] It's hardly fit for travel, but it

[15:28:41] wouldn't be right for me to leave

[15:28:51] it. That appears to be everything, my

[15:28:55] dear friends. At my age, you become an

[15:28:59] expert in farewells.

[15:29:02] But I quite

[15:29:04] prefer we'll meet again. May the stars

[15:29:08] follow you, Elder. Walk with me for a

[15:29:12] little, my friend. You know where to

[15:29:15] find me, Kane. Have a safe journey.

[15:29:23] Goodbye. Oh, we'll meet again.

[15:29:27] Your

[15:29:28] potential, your virtue have no limit. I

[15:29:34] knew it the moment you stepped into the

[15:29:36] chapel at

[15:29:37] Woreram. You've met your perils with

[15:29:41] resolve and

[15:29:43] compassion. And that is rare

[15:29:47] indeed. These are troubling

[15:29:50] times, perhaps more than any in my life.

[15:29:55] So many ignore the call to help

[15:29:58] others. It is so few speak for the

[15:30:02] balance

[15:30:04] now. The world is

[15:30:09] toppling. Who else will set it

[15:30:12] right? Who else

[15:30:14] but me? I have seen some of the bravest

[15:30:19] people alive descend into hell.

[15:30:24] stand against destruction

[15:30:26] incarnate. You are a hero of their ilk.

[15:30:31] For what you have

[15:30:32] endured, perhaps even

[15:30:38] greater. Never lose sight of all you

[15:30:41] have

[15:30:42] overcome. Cultists, one last thing. Quit

[15:30:46] worrying about me. I've walked dangerous

[15:30:50] roads my whole life.

[15:30:52] You stop fearing what could happen and

[15:30:54] focus on what

[15:30:56] must, I'll be as safe as I ever have.

[15:31:00] Thank you for everything, Kane. Until

[15:31:04] that

[15:31:08] day, patience is the highest virtue, you

[15:31:12] know.

[15:31:18] [Music]

[15:31:32] Enough goodbyes. I'd

[15:31:35] gotten used to him being here. I met

[15:31:39] Kane in a jungle. You met him in a town

[15:31:42] under siege. He can take care of

[15:31:44] himself. Let's see to your journey. H

[15:31:47] you know the way to the ancients cradle.

[15:31:50] I'll need the path stone.

[15:31:52] [Music]

[15:31:55] It

[15:31:56] um harbors a residual energy I do not

[15:32:00] recognize. But its powers are of sealing

[15:32:03] and unsealing. Not just doors, the

[15:32:06] clouds themselves.

[15:32:28] How should we use it? When you sail into

[15:32:31] the fog and mist of the forgotten sea,

[15:32:33] keep it close. Hold it and think about

[15:32:38] it.

[15:32:40] I you might appreciate a simple task on

[15:32:43] the rare occasion one presents itself.

[15:32:45] I'll keep that in mind.

[15:33:04] Are you ready?

[15:33:12] Two ships departed West March in the

[15:33:14] dead of night without any record of

[15:33:16] their

[15:33:17] destination. The fanatics must be on

[15:33:20] their way. Caroon showed me how to use

[15:33:23] the path. Stone, can you guide us to the

[15:33:26] ancients cradle? Yes. I be certain

[15:33:37] already. Which of the four corners is it

[15:33:39] today?

[15:33:42] The forgotten sea. Quite the trip. Can't

[15:33:47] imagine what you'd expect to find out

[15:33:48] there. We'll do everything we can to

[15:33:51] keep your crew safe. And you don't need

[15:33:54] to stay, but we have to leave. Yes, I

[15:33:58] know. Soon, right away,

[15:34:01] yesterday. We're already stopped. Come

[15:34:04] by at your

[15:34:06] [Music]

[15:34:20] leisure. Here we are.

[15:34:26] It has not changed since I

[15:34:29] left. A shame.

[15:34:32] [Music]

[15:34:35] Rafma blesses his oath. Place the

[15:34:38] patchstone on the

[15:34:39] altar. That should grant us entry.

[15:35:01] What is this island to you?

[15:35:05] It was my home for quite some time. Now

[15:35:08] it is more of an obligation. But

[15:35:11] stopping evil demands my presence here.

[15:35:14] Our presence. All right. Show me where

[15:35:17] the cult is likely to strike. We can

[15:35:20] prepare for an attack there.

[15:35:23] A good plan. There are many places of

[15:35:26] power where the source energy of the

[15:35:28] land burns freely. The patchstone is

[15:35:31] connected to these places. We will use

[15:35:34] it in their defense.

[15:35:38] I'm ready when you are.

[15:35:42] Watch your step. If you fall, the people

[15:35:46] here will not lift a hand to save you.

[15:35:59] Fear

[15:36:17] not. Die and rot.

[15:36:36] They are already here.

[15:36:53] This is not

[15:36:55] necromancy. There was life left in them.

[15:36:59] How odd. I told you this island has

[15:37:03] power in it. The fire of life. A force

[15:37:07] that touches. Let's go as fast as we

[15:37:10] can.

[15:37:14] Does nothing stay dead any longer?

[15:37:32] gathering. We go forward quickly.

[15:37:47] Are you prepared,

[15:37:50] [Music]

[15:38:00] children? The power of creation made

[15:38:04] pure through error.

[15:38:10] Even here it resists.

[15:38:17] This land will burn. Leave and you can

[15:38:22] live to dream of its

[15:38:32] ashes. You saw what happened when she

[15:38:35] tried to harness the fire of life.

[15:38:38] Perhaps this is why they could not bring

[15:38:40] the stone to hell so quickly. The witch

[15:38:43] is stronger than I

[15:38:45] suspected. As if she could do anything.

[15:38:49] Lethus commanded a legion of the dead

[15:38:52] with the world stone shard. The bride

[15:38:55] has had time to

[15:38:57] practice. We should expect the

[15:38:59] impossible.

[15:39:02] take them and an

[15:39:07] outsider. Why do you travel with one of

[15:39:11] them? Outsiders bring destruction. The

[15:39:15] outsiders have more in common with our

[15:39:18] people than you would expect. Rene, the

[15:39:21] cultists you saw are my enemies, too.

[15:39:25] Zan and I are going to stop them. Their

[15:39:29] leader, what does she want?

[15:39:32] Let me investigate.

[15:40:18] I gave up my connection to the cradle

[15:40:20] long ago. It must remember the insult.

[15:40:24] The fire of life has gone mad. What

[15:40:27] options do we have? We need to keep the

[15:40:30] bride of hell from any place of power we

[15:40:32] can. Where is your mother, Rene? Her aid

[15:40:36] would be

[15:40:40] welcome. The fire,

[15:40:43] it plagued a lot of us.

[15:40:47] She She got sick and and she changed.

[15:40:52] She fled into the wild. I was trying to

[15:40:55] find her.

[15:40:57] How severe was her

[15:40:59] sickness? Do you think she's alive?

[15:41:03] I I hope so. The change, it doesn't

[15:41:08] affect everyone the same. There are few

[15:41:11] more connected to the land than

[15:41:14] Tarzoine. Only the

[15:41:16] elders. And I would not depend on their

[15:41:19] assistance.

[15:41:21] Green, do you have any idea where she

[15:41:24] might have gone?

[15:41:27] We're all bound to one another through

[15:41:30] the fire of

[15:41:31] life. I can find her. I

[15:41:34] just I pray it doesn't make me

[15:41:42] sick. Mother

[15:41:44] live, guide me to your blood.

[15:41:52] Find Tarzoin if you can. I will protect

[15:41:55] him until you return.

[15:42:30] Drink of the fear. Let it fill you.

[15:42:53] Die

[15:43:00] and outsiders everywhere upon the

[15:43:04] credle. This is truly the end. You're

[15:43:08] safe for the moment. I have allies

[15:43:11] nearby who can protect you.

[15:43:14] Brought upon her flesh, rot upon the

[15:43:17] land. Mother and father left

[15:43:21] us. The conflict has found me. Have you

[15:43:25] seen a woman named Tarzoine nearby? I'm

[15:43:29] trying to find her. And Taro of

[15:43:32] the curse is their fault.

[15:43:35] Be gone from here,

[15:43:37] outsider. Keep your filth from our home.

[15:43:52] Give him and this will end sweet.

[15:43:57] You will not take anything from me.

[15:44:16] the vessel. Break it.

[15:44:19] The balance is preserved.

[15:44:27] You are not with

[15:44:29] them. Who are you, stranger?

[15:44:35] I am here to restore harmony, not worsen

[15:44:38] it. You must be Tarzo.

[15:44:43] How do you know my

[15:44:45] name? If you want my blood, you will

[15:44:48] have to fight for it.

[15:44:55] I met your son,

[15:44:58] Dream. He thought you could help us

[15:45:00] protect the island. I couldn't have

[15:45:03] found you without him. Pin would not

[15:45:05] give his name to an outsider

[15:45:07] easily. However, you are born of lies or

[15:45:10] we share this goal. In the wilderness

[15:45:13] nearby, I'll go with you. And if there's

[15:45:16] anything more you can tell me about this

[15:45:18] curse, it might help, provided you feel

[15:45:22] like sharing. The children of Inarius

[15:45:24] were cruel to us, to all the Lilen. They

[15:45:29] kept food for themselves while we

[15:45:32] starved. Anyone who suggested leaving

[15:45:35] the island was

[15:45:39] banished. One of our elders tired of the

[15:45:42] hypocrisy. Morwith stole the pathstone

[15:45:45] from the others and

[15:45:47] fled. Since then, the fire of life burns

[15:45:51] us all at its

[15:45:55] whim. Some of us are unaffected.

[15:45:59] Some

[15:46:01] disfigured, some turning to monsters. I

[15:46:05] did not support Morith, but the Inarat

[15:46:09] blame for what we have become.

[15:46:20] [Music]

[15:46:40] recharge. Fear not the end.

[15:46:54] Are you hurt? I I'm fine now. Thanks the

[15:46:58] ancients. You're alive. You are true to

[15:47:01] your word, outsider. But how did you

[15:47:04] come to stand beside Aninari? I want

[15:47:07] what you want,

[15:47:09] Tarzoine. There is darkness here. We

[15:47:13] will need all our strength to banish it.

[15:47:16] Zam is right. We need to keep the cult

[15:47:19] from anywhere on this island where they

[15:47:22] could purify the world stone. The world

[15:47:26] stone, a relic of the first days. It

[15:47:30] once rested in the husk of

[15:47:33] creation. Father Inarius abandoned us,

[15:47:37] took the stone

[15:47:38] away. At first, Inari and Nan were

[15:47:42] equal. Then Inarius's favorite children

[15:47:46] made themselves crater, too slowly for

[15:47:50] us to

[15:47:51] recognize. I will show you.

[15:48:18] What began in

[15:48:19] harmony ended in

[15:48:23] discord after the war. The father

[15:48:26] returned to us forever

[15:48:29] changed. He condemned his children,

[15:48:32] sealed away the fire of life. Only those

[15:48:35] of angelic blood were permitted to guard

[15:48:38] its embers.

[15:48:40] We watched as the light

[15:48:47] faded. Now at long last, the ancient

[15:48:50] fears of our creators are

[15:48:54] manifest. It begins in terror and ends

[15:48:58] in destruction.

[15:49:03] The place where the world stone was

[15:49:04] stored. How do we get there? It sits

[15:49:07] behind a great barrier. I've only seen

[15:49:10] it opened or sealed with the path stone

[15:49:13] by procession of the elders. We have the

[15:49:16] path stone with

[15:49:18] us. Your elder, she was using it to

[15:49:22] ravage the seas closer to the mainland.

[15:49:25] Her heart was as black as Annie, and her

[15:49:28] end was quick. Enough from you.

[15:49:33] I do not grieve for her. But only a fool

[15:49:38] believes they know another's heart.

[15:49:41] Outsider, if you have the path stone,

[15:49:44] then you have a chance to guard the husk

[15:49:46] of creation. The elders gather in the

[15:49:49] center of the island in the wood teeming

[15:49:53] with great trees. But I would not count

[15:49:56] on their help. None of my people sit

[15:49:59] with them any longer.

[15:50:02] Come with us. We could use your aid.

[15:50:08] I'm not permitted among them.

[15:50:11] My

[15:50:13] condition. But my son knows of a home

[15:50:17] for the afflicted. We will travel

[15:50:20] there. Perhaps we can rally them to

[15:50:22] fight your cultists.

[15:50:26] As the fire of life benited the land, it

[15:50:30] burned many of

[15:50:32] us. Some now hunt the afflicted. They

[15:50:36] believe it will stop the

[15:50:39] spread. Be wary of

[15:50:44] them. May we meet again.

[15:51:06] Still rechar.

[15:51:18] Death is inevitable.

[15:51:28] [Applause]

[15:51:35] I must wait.

[15:51:51] That must

[15:51:58] be the battle is

[15:52:03] preserved.

[15:52:21] Heat. Heat.

[15:52:54] Your grave beckons.

[15:53:01] The

[15:53:04] fact worthy hands have shaped your

[15:53:07] steel.

[15:53:31] That ability must recharge.

[15:54:01] That

[15:54:09] ability death is inevitable.

[15:54:31] Well, give it more time.

[15:54:33] [Music]

[15:55:00] Open the barrier and I will set you

[15:55:03] free or we can continue. I will die

[15:55:09] before I give paradise to

[15:55:23] your predator.

[15:55:29] Be careful. The land's fury is roused.

[15:55:50] The patch

[15:55:51] stone. It is shooting

[15:55:54] you. Look for a way to stop

[15:56:00] this.

[15:56:15] Those statues are responding to the

[15:56:19] path. Yes, things are clearer now.

[15:56:40] Heat.

[15:57:00] Heat.

[15:57:08] [Music]

[15:57:24] Good work. This should lower the barrier

[15:57:27] so we can

[15:57:34] pass. Keep the palm hidden. Others may

[15:57:38] react with violence if they see it in

[15:57:40] our hands. We should be ahead of the

[15:57:42] fanatics.

[15:57:58] How dare you threaten us, son of

[15:58:00] Binarius. Unhand me. You are great.

[15:58:05] Your life endangers the sanctity of the

[15:58:08] cradle.

[15:58:15] How How did

[15:58:17] [Music]

[15:58:20] you How we won't hurt you. The

[15:58:23] sanctifiers. We tried to tell them we're

[15:58:26] not monsters. Just Just changed. They

[15:58:30] hear the Lillian ripped the heart from

[15:58:32] our home. They deserve their punishment.

[15:58:36] What tragic

[15:58:40] discord. The light of your life still

[15:58:42] shines. Please, brother, help me. The

[15:58:46] sanctifiers, they killed everyone else.

[15:58:49] Had the outsider insithm not protected

[15:58:51] me. We will hunt down these jackals. The

[15:58:54] elders will not permit murder in

[15:58:56] defiance of our law. Where are you

[15:58:59] taking him? A safe place for the

[15:59:01] afflicted. You will be no threat to

[15:59:04] anyone and be under no threat from

[15:59:07] anyone. Outsiders bring destruction,

[15:59:10] Satan. Inform the elders of the one in

[15:59:12] your care and accept their

[15:59:22] judgment. If I'm breaking some sacred

[15:59:26] law of your homeland, I'd like to know

[15:59:29] about it. They all say outsiders bring

[15:59:33] destruction, but they have been the seed

[15:59:36] of their own destruction since I was a

[15:59:39] boy. If anyone can purch the darkness

[15:59:42] from this land, it will be an outsider.

[15:59:46] We will talk to the elders, but we are

[15:59:49] not beholden to them.

[16:00:05] [Music]

[16:00:09] Go ahead. Open

[16:00:12] it. This will be where they gather.

[16:00:24] [Music]

[16:00:36] I cannot. This is for the good of all.

[16:00:41] Your family will be cared for until you

[16:00:44] are

[16:00:45] cured. No harm will come to you at the

[16:00:48] colony.

[16:00:49] No, please. Fear is controlling you.

[16:00:54] Open your heart to the guidance of

[16:00:58] Inarius.

[16:00:59] Stay on your guard. Imrust lies as much

[16:01:03] as he speaks. Guards.

[16:01:07] [Music]

[16:01:16] So it is you who brings the

[16:01:20] outsiders. You who brings

[16:01:24] ruin. I bring salvation. The cultists

[16:01:28] are our enemies. If we guard the husk of

[16:01:32] creation together, we can push them

[16:01:35] back. No, they poison our home. And now

[16:01:40] you lead them here.

[16:01:50] Under the fire covenant, you spit on the

[16:01:54] father's

[16:01:55] will. The land will judge you for this

[16:02:01] outrage. Do none of you see what he has

[16:02:05] done? Are you so afraid to speak the

[16:02:08] answer?

[16:02:10] Hey, Mus. Zam is a child returned to his

[16:02:14] cradle. He deserves our mercy.

[16:02:22] I should never have permitted you to

[16:02:24] leave. Their whispers have spoiled your

[16:02:28] soul, boy. Entrust them to me. I shall

[16:02:33] measure their claims. We must consider

[16:02:35] every option. Whatever harm they bring

[16:02:38] is upon you tenfold.

[16:02:41] As you

[16:02:44] say, follow me if you would.

[16:02:51] [Music]

[16:02:55] Can you not hold your grievances inside?

[16:03:13] This is why the rot spreads.

[16:03:16] Unwillingness to speak its

[16:03:21] name. Stop right here.

[16:03:25] [Music]

[16:03:39] Outsider, give us a moment. The Lilen

[16:03:43] only think of themselves. The Inari

[16:03:46] pretend to care for everyone, yet they

[16:03:48] twist their own rules. They did not all

[16:03:51] command you to kill. They did not all

[16:03:54] silence your

[16:03:56] objections. They did not all take your

[16:03:59] eyes. Only Muthus. He is the worst of

[16:04:03] them. But he's just a symbol. This curse

[16:04:07] shows us as we are in sight. That

[16:04:10] doesn't change our

[16:04:13] obligations, does it? I suppose it does

[16:04:16] not. Your anger disturbs the song.

[16:04:19] Reserve it for the

[16:04:21] invaders. Do not make me regret my

[16:04:23] support.

[16:04:27] Death is quite the teacher.

[16:04:51] Come. I will show you what you must

[16:04:54] protect.

[16:05:09] Your corpses are mine. We will be saved.

[16:05:15] Fire of life. Song of the father.

[16:05:20] Welcome me within.

[16:05:26] After you. Outsiders,

[16:05:37] you do not need to present your claim to

[16:05:39] me. I hear the song of the spring, its

[16:05:42] visions importance. It tells me an

[16:05:45] outsider will preserve the cred. We have

[16:05:48] the patch stone. You

[16:05:51] do? Then we can reinforce the husk of

[16:05:54] creation.

[16:05:56] Make its shield desire and make her

[16:05:59] stand before its

[16:06:01] gates. When Imra sees her power, he will

[16:06:05] exceed. Tell me about the path stone's

[16:06:07] capabilities. It could help our defense.

[16:06:12] The path stone is a key to the island's

[16:06:15] heart. It has always kept us hidden and

[16:06:18] defended. But time away from the credle

[16:06:22] will have left it unbalanced. If it's a

[16:06:25] key, can't we break it in the lock?

[16:06:28] Prevent anyone else from reaching the

[16:06:30] husk of creation?

[16:06:33] No. You know the power the bride of hell

[16:06:37] possesses. This is our only

[16:06:40] advantage. There is no way of knowing

[16:06:43] what its destruction would do to the

[16:06:44] island. Especially after so much time in

[16:06:47] Morwit's hands. To use the path stone at

[16:06:50] the husk of creation. We must restore

[16:06:53] its equilibrium at the greatest places

[16:06:56] of

[16:06:57] power. Zitham and I, we cannot harness

[16:07:01] the power of the Kumingland pit at the

[16:07:03] shrine to Mother Lilith. It is the same

[16:07:05] for Sheldon and anyone so connected to

[16:07:07] demons. But you can take it to both ends

[16:07:10] of the island. Outsider, show me where

[16:07:14] and I'll be on my way. The union of the

[16:07:17] mother and the father made us made our

[16:07:20] home and bound us to

[16:07:26] [Music]

[16:07:30] it. Look here. This is your path.

[16:07:37] [Music]

[16:07:44] Their devotion, it still rests in the

[16:07:47] shrines we made in their image. You

[16:07:50] should begin with the shrine to Father

[16:07:52] Inarius in Shield. It will be less

[16:07:55] dangerous. The portal will deliver you.

[16:07:57] This scroll is imbued with the fire of

[16:08:00] life. When you have what you seek,

[16:08:05] I will search for the fanatics and harry

[16:08:08] them while you prepare their end. Keep

[16:08:10] the pot done safe. Keep yourselves safe.

[16:08:14] I'm off.

[16:08:26] [Music]

[16:08:49] controls. It's like they're made to go

[16:08:52] mad.

[16:09:22] sanctify. Heat.

[16:09:33] [Music]

[16:09:38] Wait and die.

[16:10:07] They're passing through

[16:10:08] here. There has to be another way.

[16:10:32] of

[16:10:42] course the course.

[16:10:46] The great cycle continues

[16:10:51] onward. The balance is preserved.

[16:11:24] The heart belongs to him. You will not

[16:11:29] have

[16:11:32] it. Prove yourselves. Deal with this.

[16:11:42] It should be safe to lower the barrier.

[16:12:03] Die. That's

[16:12:29] The

[16:12:30] battle is preserved.

[16:13:02] requires

[16:13:08] I must

[16:13:09] wait. I need

[16:13:14] [Music]

[16:13:21] to fear not the end.

[16:13:39] The balance is prison. I can feel the

[16:13:44] energy in the

[16:13:45] air. This must be the right place.

[16:14:10] Charge with

[16:14:12] power. Back to Garrett.

[16:14:29] You have it. The father's legacy in true

[16:14:32] hands again as they intended.

[16:14:37] The path stone is

[16:14:38] enoled. The song is

[16:14:41] unbending. Couple it with the mother's

[16:14:44] legacy and we can do more than defend

[16:14:46] the ancients cradle.

[16:14:48] We can renew it. Have you heard from

[16:14:51] Zaf? No, but he is a fierce fighter and

[16:14:55] a learn of the Traveler. He will return

[16:14:58] to us alive.

[16:15:00] [Music]

[16:15:04] Thank you for your confidence. Tell me

[16:15:07] of your progress.

[16:15:09] I empowered the Pathstone at Shield.

[16:15:12] Arane was there, but he

[16:15:15] escaped. What did you find?

[16:15:18] I slew a scouting party, diverted

[16:15:22] others, but I did not see the bride of

[16:15:24] hell. She must be marshalling her

[16:15:27] forces. The spring might help us find

[16:15:29] out more about where she is or will be,

[16:15:33] but its visions are often symbolic,

[16:15:35] subject to

[16:15:37] interpretation. Allow me to try.

[16:15:41] [Music]

[16:16:07] No, that is the chamber of the heart,

[16:16:10] the husk of creation. If she reaches it,

[16:16:13] the power of the world stone will belong

[16:16:15] to the Lord of

[16:16:17] terror. We need to stop that from coming

[16:16:20] to pass. We must bring the path stone to

[16:16:23] the gate and reinforce it. There is no

[16:16:25] other option. I'll head for the second

[16:16:27] shrine. I will do my best to delay them.

[16:16:31] Be swift on your journey.

[16:16:33] [Music]

[16:17:03] Moon heat. Heat.

[16:17:43] Heat.

[16:18:03] Your

[16:18:12] blood here. Come close. Let's look at

[16:18:15] your weapons.

[16:18:19] carried you up from you.

[16:18:23] Such salvation will follow.

[16:20:41] here. Come

[16:20:45] close. Ah, the land. Here, come

[16:20:54] close. Thank

[16:20:55] you. Cherry chip on you.

[16:21:01] The fire of life.

[16:22:03] Love it. Right.

[16:22:44] death.

[16:22:45] is

[16:23:04] inevitable. My inside

[16:23:11] glows the battle king.

[16:23:31] without your

[16:23:38] grave. Does it

[16:23:40] not everyone

[16:23:55] Die and

[16:24:05] rot.

[16:24:06] Murderers,

[16:24:08] violators. You will not get away with

[16:24:11] this.

[16:24:38] There is no other way.

[16:24:48] Are you all right? And what did they do

[16:24:50] to you?

[16:24:58] See, what

[16:25:05] is change? Seems irreversible.

[16:25:09] If what he said is true, it doesn't bode

[16:25:12] well for

[16:25:14] Tarzo

[16:25:21] or so little reverence for the

[16:25:25] dead. Well, did this vile indeed.

[16:25:36] They were just handing over the

[16:25:39] afflicted to be

[16:25:40] slain. I doubt there's a colony.

[16:26:07] [Music]

[16:26:17] Without a special,

[16:26:24] you're nearly there. You can let your

[16:26:26] burdens

[16:26:28] go. Heat.

[16:26:41] [Music]

[16:26:50] Heat.

[16:27:11] Heat.

[16:27:29] Well, may I thank the prevailing wind in

[16:27:34] person. The turmoil has passed. You are

[16:27:37] doing important work, but it must remain

[16:27:40] concealed for now. I wouldn't want to

[16:27:43] destroy one's fate. We have gathered

[16:27:48] plenty. Iris is working with the

[16:28:04] sanctifiers. Did losing the path star

[16:28:07] transform these halls or were they

[16:28:10] always like this?

[16:28:32] still

[16:28:37] reach. I must wait. You can

[16:28:49] [Music]

[16:28:55] see Mother Lilith, accept this gift of

[16:28:59] your children.

[16:29:01] [Music]

[16:29:03] Promise you restore balance to our home.

[16:29:08] Protect your chosen from the

[16:29:11] curse. Let the strength of the land be

[16:29:14] on and those who care for it. I brought

[16:29:19] you one of the

[16:29:22] afflicted.

[16:29:24] Please shave me from the sickness.

[16:29:31] No. Rain.

[16:29:47] That ability must

[16:29:52] recharge. Outsider, you are a blind of

[16:29:56] creation and I will cleanse

[16:30:01] you. Heat. Heat.

[16:30:50] [Music]

[16:30:54] Marine,

[16:30:57] why? I had no idea. When I got

[16:31:01] sick, it must have terrified him. You

[16:31:04] were trying to keep people safe. You

[16:31:07] can't blame yourself for something like

[16:31:09] this. Every mistake a child makes

[16:31:11] belongs to their parents first. Let me

[16:31:14] take you out of here. There's a refuge

[16:31:17] nearby. I

[16:31:19] promise. Just give me a moment.

[16:31:42] It's done.

[16:31:49] You restored it. Outsiders don't only

[16:31:52] bring destruction. I am past faith in

[16:31:56] anyone's words.

[16:32:01] But if you will fight for

[16:32:03] us, you have my support. I will. Let's

[16:32:08] leave

[16:32:26] here. The Herret has a hideway nearby.

[16:32:31] Are you ready to go? An elder is with

[16:32:33] you. Do you trust her? So far, she's

[16:32:38] been helping us restore the path stone.

[16:32:41] She intervened

[16:32:43] [Music]

[16:32:45] with death is quite the teacher.

[16:32:56] [Music]

[16:33:17] What happened here?

[16:33:27] She still breathes. They didn't kill

[16:33:35] her. How could they have found this

[16:33:37] place?

[16:33:38] She's a wielder of life's fire. Perhaps

[16:33:42] they sensed her power. There must be

[16:33:46] some clue to what they were seeking in

[16:33:47] this mess. Yes, I will help search.

[16:33:53] [Music]

[16:34:12] The spring has been completely

[16:34:18] destroyed.

[16:34:29] [Music]

[16:34:35] Her notes accusing Muthus of murder, of

[16:34:39] knowingly sending his people to die. He

[16:34:43] used Mulwith's theft as an excuse to

[16:34:45] butcher my people. Why should he deal

[16:34:48] any differently with his own? Did you

[16:34:50] see any sign of Zam?

[16:34:53] What

[16:35:01] [Music]

[16:35:06] the are you hurt? No worse than

[16:35:11] before. That shock cannot have been far

[16:35:14] off.

[16:35:15] They lay siege to the husk. Will you be

[16:35:18] all right here if they come back? Of

[16:35:21] course. Go. I will try to revive her.

[16:35:26] [Music]

[16:35:57] Surprisingly, enjoyable.

[16:36:26] sever the barrier.

[16:36:33] You would suppress terror with

[16:36:45] death. They're not through yet.

[16:37:00] Still

[16:37:12] recharging. After

[16:37:15] all, I

[16:37:17] sacrificed. I tried to help your

[16:37:20] children. Father, you can still help.

[16:37:24] Reinforce the gate. Diablo will destroy

[16:37:27] your home and mine. You step foot on our

[16:37:32] land for the first time and believe you

[16:37:34] know how to care for it. Arrogance. I

[16:37:38] know what you've done and so do your

[16:37:41] people. You have a chance to actually

[16:37:44] keep them safe. I have kept them

[16:37:49] safe. Without the past stone, there is

[16:37:52] nothing I can accomplish here. The

[16:38:00] Lelin, you soloed

[16:38:03] it. But if we destroy it,

[16:38:09] perhaps

[16:38:11] I No,

[16:38:19] I have never killed anyone more

[16:38:22] deserving.

[16:38:25] Fire of life, heed your child this once,

[16:38:30] open the

[16:38:37] way. None are to follow

[16:38:42] [Music]

[16:38:46] me. Keep your promise,

[16:38:49] witch. Wipe this place clean.

[16:38:55] I hope we could do this

[16:38:58] together, but you would not accept the

[16:39:01] need. You've been working with the cult.

[16:39:05] Outsiders bring great

[16:39:07] destruction. I went searching for them.

[16:39:10] Great of strength and greater of

[16:39:13] will. I found

[16:39:16] you. Let the bride finish her ritual. We

[16:39:19] can eliminate all the fanatics once she

[16:39:22] is done. If I had not tipped the scales

[16:39:25] to help her so many times, you would

[16:39:27] have already killed her. Listen to

[16:39:30] yourself. What you're doing isn't

[16:39:34] justice.

[16:39:36] Gharis,

[16:39:37] Tarzoin. There are good people here. I

[16:39:42] know you understand that. I am doing

[16:39:45] exactly as you do.

[16:39:48] Punishing the wicked. The cradle must be

[16:39:52] destroyed. All the rot burned away at

[16:39:55] once.

[16:39:57] I know this in my blood.

[16:40:10] [Music]

[16:40:13] If you would defend the stretch of life,

[16:40:16] then defend it with your

[16:40:29] life. Death will not cleanse you.

[16:40:32] Nothing can.

[16:40:37] [Music]

[16:40:44] You

[16:40:45] will no more,

[16:40:53] won't

[16:40:56] I?

[16:40:59] Restore the stone to

[16:41:02] purity. Expune the forces

[16:41:22] within. Couldn't stop her.

[16:41:30] You struggle in vain. You're a pawn with

[16:41:34] no moves

[16:41:35] left. The Lord of Terror will receive

[16:41:38] his

[16:41:40] due

[16:41:44] begun. His

[16:41:48] will is

[16:41:52] absolute. Kneel and weep.

[16:41:56] [Music]

[16:42:05] The shard of creation, it shields her

[16:42:08] from everything. The fire of life is

[16:42:11] changing the shard. But what is this

[16:42:14] power expanding it from within? I can't

[16:42:17] hurt her. I have no other choice. You

[16:42:21] don't mean to. I don't want to, but I'm

[16:42:24] going to.

[16:42:31] Destruction

[16:42:44] rises a

[16:42:45] mortal. How have you come to be here?

[16:42:51] You are trapped in this prison of

[16:42:54] creation.

[16:42:56] I am the archangel.

[16:43:01] This is your army.

[16:43:06] Power grows by the moment. I know not

[16:43:11] how the force is feeding him from

[16:43:14] beyond.

[16:43:15] Mortal, if you have any strength, he

[16:43:19] renews

[16:43:20] himself. Hurry. There is no

[16:43:26] [Music]

[16:43:31] time. The power

[16:43:36] of it has been far too

[16:43:42] long.

[16:43:53] He's not caged.

[16:44:01] I will show you.

[16:44:06] Flee, mortal. He is shattering the very

[16:44:09] walls of this realm.

[16:44:12] Yes. Run to safety.

[16:44:27] You've

[16:44:29] escaped. Nothing more to fear. I cannot

[16:44:34] move.

[16:44:51] His tendrils spread throughout his cage.

[16:44:55] It will not last much longer. I will try

[16:44:59] to keep the walls together. You must

[16:45:02] cleave through his limbs. If he breaks

[16:45:05] free, if he is reborn, it will spell

[16:45:08] doom for your

[16:45:20] world. I have to

[16:45:29] hold crush them.

[16:45:36] [Music]

[16:45:48] Slow. It's crumbling.

[16:45:57] Pull the angel apart.

[16:46:18] breakfast.

[16:46:31] The more you cling to, the more I can

[16:46:38] destroy. Here is your

[16:46:42] justice

[16:46:51] kill. I will relish your struggle.

[16:47:03] There is nothing beyond

[16:47:17] my mine to

[16:47:20] shatter as are your lies.

[16:47:51] Where to begin?

[16:48:02] Mortal Stone.

[16:48:19] You

[16:48:22] will tal

[16:48:30] Such

[16:48:55] Yeah. They will win.

[16:49:12] I am the roots of this

[16:49:27] landlord.

[16:49:36] Heat. Heat.

[16:50:00] Is that the Lord of Destruction?

[16:50:10] You defeated him. They were bound within

[16:50:14] the World Stone Shard. Bale and the

[16:50:18] archangel

[16:50:20] Tyel. Bale broke free and

[16:50:23] Tyel protected me. After Baal

[16:50:28] appeared, the bride of hell walked

[16:50:30] through a portal with a stone hole

[16:50:34] again. She has what she came for. The

[16:50:37] whole island shook. I thought it would

[16:50:40] sink. And my people came from everywhere

[16:50:44] to kneel before the Lord of

[16:50:47] Destruction. They wouldn't listen to me.

[16:50:51] He took them. And I don't want to spend

[16:50:54] another second here.

[16:51:05] Z them attacked me at the spring. There

[16:51:07] were cultists with him. I know he's

[16:51:10] after what the prevailing wind did to

[16:51:12] him. After what he had to

[16:51:15] do, I knew there was anger in his heart,

[16:51:18] but I never expected. I should have

[16:51:22] stopped Emus when he called for

[16:51:23] retribution against the Lillian. All of

[16:51:26] this could have been prevented. You're

[16:51:28] far from the most

[16:51:30] responsible. Even at his worst, Zam

[16:51:33] spared your life.

[16:51:35] Yes, though I would be trapped under the

[16:51:37] rubble if not for the Paris was the

[16:51:41] mercy.

[16:51:44] Yes, things are clearer now.

[16:51:53] Ruined. There's almost nothing left of

[16:51:56] it. Hardly enough to rebuild.

[16:52:02] Maybe enough to survive.

[16:52:06] What will you do now? I don't know where

[16:52:08] to find the bride. I'll try to catch up

[16:52:11] to her, but I think we are out of time.

[16:52:14] You should prepare the island to be

[16:52:16] attacked again.

[16:52:18] As we must

[16:52:20] always. There's no way of knowing how

[16:52:22] the fire of life will us now. If the

[16:52:26] curse will spread or recede.

[16:52:29] Yet I would rather have ruins than

[16:52:32] nothing. We owe our lives and our home

[16:52:36] to

[16:52:37] you. You will always be welcome.

[16:52:42] There is nothing left for me

[16:52:45] here. But there is nothing for me

[16:52:47] anywhere else. I would spare you this if

[16:52:51] I could. Gherid wants to fix our

[16:52:55] home. I may not live to say that.

[16:52:59] But I will show fire to the darkness

[16:53:02] before it takes me. If anyone can hold

[16:53:05] this evil back, it will be you,

[16:53:08] outsider. I know this in my blood.

[16:53:14] And

[16:53:16] anchor

[16:53:17] mortal, can you hear me?

[16:53:21] Tyion.

[16:53:23] Tyel, where are you? in the cracks of

[16:53:27] your

[16:53:28] soul. I am

[16:53:30] weak,

[16:53:32] but I am

[16:53:34] here. Justice is within you now, and

[16:53:37] justice does not rest.

[16:53:42] What do you mean, Tyion?

[16:53:46] Ty.

[16:53:50] Tyio, his voice is gone.

[16:53:54] I should tell caution. You show

[16:53:56] humility. You are my favorite

[16:53:59] mainlander.

[16:54:02] [Music]

[16:55:21] You live

[16:55:23] Good. Were you able to intercept them in

[16:55:27] parts? They unleashed the Lord of

[16:55:29] Destruction on the island. I was at

[16:55:32] least able to stop him from destroying

[16:55:34] it. The bride of hell purified the world

[16:55:38] stone shard. Bale was trapped inside.

[16:55:41] After he broke free, she fled the cradle

[16:55:44] with the stone. Zam was working with

[16:55:47] her. I don't know for how long. Before

[16:55:51] you say I shouldn't have trusted him. I

[16:55:54] You're right. I did not trust

[16:55:58] him. But you saw some valor of his. And

[16:56:02] it is not as though he killed you in

[16:56:04] your sleep. Despite ample opportunity,

[16:56:07] you can be both wrong and right at once.

[16:56:10] You know, perhaps between the two of us,

[16:56:13] you shall offer a decent judge of

[16:56:15] character. There's something else. I've

[16:56:19] been hearing a voice in my

[16:56:23] head. It's

[16:56:25] faint,

[16:56:28] infrequent. I know how this sounds,

[16:56:31] but I think it's the Archangel Tyel.

[16:56:37] With all your soul has been exposed to,

[16:56:40] I would not find that

[16:56:43] impossible. What makes you certain this

[16:56:45] voice is real? He was trapped in the

[16:56:47] shard, too. He defended me against Bale.

[16:56:51] It is hardly victory, but it is an

[16:56:54] advantage they may not

[16:56:56] expect. Try to commune with your angel.

[16:57:00] I will seek any trace of the cult using

[16:57:02] the world stone to open a pathway to the

[16:57:05] burning hells. Such power must leave a

[16:57:08] sign. Keep your chin up. We are not dead

[16:57:11] yet.

[16:57:23] I hope you've been communing with that

[16:57:25] angel of yours. I can sense utilization

[16:57:29] of the world stone shard near Woreram,

[16:57:31] but I can't get a full picture with the

[16:57:33] astral anchor. I need you to head there

[16:57:36] and scout it out yourself.

[16:57:39] Woram, do you think the cultists are

[16:57:41] back? If the world stone shard is

[16:57:43] involved, it's quite likely, but I can't

[16:57:46] say for certain without any accurate

[16:57:48] insight. Your friend is fright.

[16:57:52] Something vile is

[16:57:54] occurring. No doubt involving demons

[16:57:57] spawn. We must stop the fiends lest

[16:58:00] innocent lives fall victim to their

[16:58:02] cruelty.

[16:58:06] a bit

[16:58:15] right. You've come at a bad time. I've

[16:58:18] had too many villagers go mad from

[16:58:20] nightmares, running off into the woods

[16:58:22] or mutilating their own bodies. I

[16:58:24] suggest you leave before the same

[16:58:26] happens to you. I'm here to help. What

[16:58:30] do you know about these nightmares?

[16:58:32] The villagers sometimes ramble about the

[16:58:35] deceased Prince Alrech. Other times they

[16:58:37] go on about Leoric's

[16:58:39] manor. But before you head to the manor,

[16:58:42] I have something else I require Aiden.

[16:58:45] One of the villagers that has gone

[16:58:46] missing as a child named

[16:58:50] Noah. His father recently went mad,

[16:58:53] killed himself by tearing at his body

[16:58:55] with his bare hands. I'm worried about

[16:58:57] the child. Could you help me find him?

[16:59:01] [Music]

[16:59:06] Are you here to help us? Please find my

[16:59:09] Noah. He's only a child. I'll find Noah.

[16:59:14] When was the last time you saw him? Last

[16:59:17] night before I tucked him into bed, only

[16:59:20] he wasn't in bed this morning and his

[16:59:22] shoes were still there. Please, you have

[16:59:26] to find him.

[16:59:34] [Music]

[16:59:35] All dreams contain omens. Do not attempt

[16:59:38] to run. Did you see a child named Noah

[16:59:41] run through here? Noah? No, I didn't.

[16:59:45] I'm surprised he'd ever leave his

[16:59:47] mother's side. He constantly has his

[16:59:49] hand in hers. I hope he hasn't wandered

[16:59:52] too far from the town. A lot of

[16:59:54] villagers who have gone missing don't

[16:59:55] come back.

[17:00:06] [Music]

[17:00:13] Stay. Stay away from me. I I don't want

[17:00:15] to hurt you. It's all right, Noah. What

[17:00:18] are you talking about?

[17:00:21] I had a nightmare. I was big and scary

[17:00:25] and hurting a lot of people. What if I

[17:00:27] become like my father? I don't want to

[17:00:30] hurt mother. You're not going to hurt

[17:00:32] anybody. It was just a scary dream.

[17:00:36] [Music]

[17:00:37] A dream. So none of it was real. I know

[17:00:41] it felt real, but it wasn't. You're a

[17:00:44] big boy now, Noah. You can't be scared

[17:00:47] of dreams. You have to be brave to

[17:00:50] protect your mother. You're right. I

[17:00:52] have to be strong. I have to protect

[17:00:55] her.

[17:01:00] Well, I'm glad we found him unharmed.

[17:01:03] I'll send him back to his

[17:01:07] mother. We still need to see what's at

[17:01:10] Leoric's estate. That old manor must

[17:01:13] have clues to why the villagers are

[17:01:15] going mad. Wait for me at the pier

[17:01:17] southwest of Woram.

[17:01:21] Your mother, Noah. She's been worried

[17:01:24] about you.

[17:01:39] I never thought I'd be back here again.

[17:01:54] [Music]

[17:01:58] Ever since Mad King Leoric was slain,

[17:02:01] his manner has been abandoned. I don't

[17:02:03] know what could be of significance in

[17:02:04] there after all these years. If you're

[17:02:06] ready, we'll get there by

[17:02:13] boat. This place, the dense air weighs

[17:02:18] upon my chest. We should head inside and

[17:02:21] investigate. I doubt anyone bothered to

[17:02:23] lock the front door.

[17:02:26] If you saw me now, mother, would you

[17:02:29] recognize me?

[17:02:30] [Laughter]

[17:02:33] Of course not. Cultists, quickly, we

[17:02:35] need to stop them.

[17:03:04] This place is completely ransacked.

[17:03:22] a barrier. The cultists must be

[17:03:24] conducting some sort of ritual in the

[17:03:26] courtyard. Try to find something that'll

[17:03:28] get us through. I'll stand guard in case

[17:03:31] any more of the bastards arrive. I sense

[17:03:34] a deep curve. Don't hurt me.

[17:03:53] We have to find the boy ready to be our

[17:03:55] head.

[17:03:58] This must have belonged to Prince Orick.

[17:04:09] There's my

[17:04:11] boy. I think you've gotten bigger since

[17:04:14] the last time I saw you.

[17:04:26] Father.

[17:04:27] Father, let's play a game. A game? I've

[17:04:31] been playing you with Aiden. I hide and

[17:04:34] you tried to find me. Well, you'd better

[17:04:37] find a good hiding spot. Here I

[17:04:49] [Music]

[17:04:57] go. There you are.

[17:05:07] So, have you been enjoying Tristram? I

[17:05:11] love it here. There's a whole field of

[17:05:13] flowers that mother showed me. What

[17:05:16] about you, father? Do you like Tristram?

[17:05:20] Yes. Well, in truth, I'm having trouble

[17:05:24] sleeping and it has been difficult to

[17:05:27] think. Perhaps I should consult Lazarus.

[17:05:30] Why did Lazarus want to come here in the

[17:05:33] first place?

[17:05:35] He believed it was best for our faith.

[17:05:37] And so I trust his judgment. Lazarus is

[17:05:40] a wise man and a faithful servant of

[17:05:45] [Music]

[17:05:46] Acarat. As king, faith is essential as

[17:05:51] faith unifies the people. It's not a

[17:05:54] source of power, son. It's a source.

[17:05:59] So he was a loving father once.

[17:06:11] Mother,

[17:06:13] where are you?

[17:06:16] Why are they so interested in these

[17:06:18] artifacts?

[17:06:39] You're going to have to be faster than

[17:06:41] that. No fire.

[17:06:50] You're not going to learn if I go easy

[17:06:51] on you. I am learning. I'll prove it to

[17:06:54] you. You'll

[17:07:19] see. Aiden, I tried. I really did. I

[17:07:24] know, Albert. You have what it takes to

[17:07:27] be a great king, but you need to get

[17:07:29] stronger and faster before you can fight

[17:07:31] like one. I want to fight like one now.

[17:07:35] Albert, being grown up means more than

[17:07:37] fighting. It also means protecting the

[17:07:40] people you love. Like mother, I'm not

[17:07:43] going to be here forever to help

[17:07:45] you. And there are monsters out there

[17:07:47] worse than wolves.

[17:07:52] Aiden, the dark wanderer and prince of

[17:07:56] Condoris. I suppose he was a caring

[17:07:59] brother as well.

[17:08:21] Alrech dear, are you studying? Yes,

[17:08:29] [Music]

[17:08:35] mother. Oh, you must take the time to

[17:08:39] study. As a prince, you should know the

[17:08:41] history of our people. That's what makes

[17:08:43] a good leader. But what about studying

[17:08:46] heroes and warriors? Aren't they also

[17:08:49] good leaders?

[17:08:52] Winning wars is only part of being a

[17:08:54] good leader. You must also know what's

[17:08:56] best for your people. Your father became

[17:08:59] a great king because he read. And you

[17:09:02] will, too. But studying is so boring.

[17:09:06] Well, how about this? We study for just

[17:09:08] a little bit longer and then you and I

[17:09:10] can go pick some fruit for dessert

[17:09:12] tonight. Okay, I'll finish studying in

[17:09:15] no

[17:09:29] time. Here's a good start. The history

[17:09:32] of Condoras. I'm sure we'll even get to

[17:09:34] read a bit about your father.

[17:09:39] Queen

[17:09:41] Ailla, fate can be

[17:09:44] cruel. That seems to be all the

[17:09:46] artifacts. The path to the courtyard

[17:09:49] should be open

[17:10:03] now.

[17:10:08] His influence still persists in these

[17:10:11] trinkets even after all this time. Still

[17:10:15] attempting to deter terror, I see.

[17:10:45] What was she doing with the prince's

[17:10:47] things? We have to hurry to wear them. I

[17:10:50] have a feeling the prince's items are

[17:10:52] the only things she

[17:10:55] needs. Smoke. Quickly.

[17:11:22] Damned cultists. I don't see any

[17:11:25] villagers. If there are any survivors,

[17:11:27] they're in the

[17:11:34] trap. That requires

[17:11:42] Captain Ammeir. They took my Noah. Those

[17:11:45] cultists took him and the others towards

[17:11:47] the dock. We'll save them, Jody. Believe

[17:11:49] me. Follow me,

[17:11:54] adventurer. Heat. Heat.

[17:12:27] Mother, I'm scared.

[17:12:32] [Applause]

[17:12:35] No, not the villagers. We have to stop

[17:12:38] them. Are you all right? I'm fine. Just

[17:12:41] a scratch. Quickly, go save the

[17:12:43] villagers. I'll finish off the rest of

[17:12:46] these bastards.

[17:13:11] They thought to chain the Lord of terror

[17:13:14] here.

[17:13:17] He is what makes Tristram

[17:13:21] sacred. Where Alrech, Leoric's youngest

[17:13:25] son, was shown

[17:13:29] rebirth. Where Aiden, Leoric's eldest,

[17:13:34] put his father's corpse to rest

[17:13:38] again. A family lost in the dark.

[17:13:44] No, it welcomed them as it will welcome

[17:13:49] us.

[17:14:07] Mother, somebody help me. Noah,

[17:14:17] more time.

[17:14:21] Please help me. I'm here, Noah. Don't be

[17:14:26] afraid. I'm here, Noah. Don't be afraid.

[17:14:32] Watch out.

[17:14:48] Somebody help me.

[17:15:06] No. Yeah.

[17:15:12] Not

[17:15:13] yet. Of course I can't. I

[17:15:32] must somebody help me.

[17:15:36] Noah, go

[17:15:42] now.

[17:15:44] More to come.

[17:15:48] More are down there. Please save them.

[17:15:53] I'm luring your

[17:16:22] finishes. This must be where they're

[17:16:24] keeping the villagers.

[17:16:43] [Music]

[17:16:46] Soon all will burn and I

[17:16:50] will smoke.

[17:17:03] Your grave

[17:17:07] beckons of

[17:17:13] course

[17:17:24] not.

[17:17:42] Heat. Heat.

[17:17:52] [Music]

[17:17:55] What has she

[17:18:01] done?

[17:18:03] Last

[17:18:09] consume. Your flesh will hurt the

[17:18:14] voices.

[17:18:27] eyes looking at

[17:18:39] me. I

[17:18:42] must get bigger. I get stronger.

[17:18:49] Do you

[17:18:50] see how much

[17:18:53] stronger I

[17:19:02] become? Your

[17:19:06] soul. I need

[17:19:18] Worthy hands have shaped your

[17:19:24] steel. Is this place the world stone

[17:19:27] shards doing?

[17:19:31] My king, please don't listen to Lazarus.

[17:19:34] Invading Westmont is a death sentence

[17:19:36] for our troops.

[17:19:39] It's obvious he's praying for your

[17:19:41] downfall, my king, so that he could

[17:19:44] rise.

[17:19:47] Another

[17:19:48] memory, but this one's different from

[17:19:51] the mana.

[17:20:07] Aiden, your sword.

[17:20:12] Thank you, Alvin. Make sure to work on

[17:20:14] your swings while I'm gone. When I come

[17:20:16] back, be prepared for a sparring match.

[17:20:45] Leoric, what has gotten into you?

[17:20:51] No more of your cursed words, wretch.

[17:20:56] May the Anchorat have mercy upon your

[17:20:58] soul because I will not.

[17:21:02] Terror runs deep in these

[17:21:05] memories. It must be Diablo's influence

[17:21:08] beckoning the bride towards him.

[17:21:19] Lazarus, please let me go.

[17:21:23] Stop your struggling, boy. The Lord just

[17:21:27] needs you barely alive.

[17:22:03] Earth is firing.

[17:22:15] She went through the portal, but

[17:22:17] something on the other side is making my

[17:22:20] skin

[17:22:21] crawl. I have to follow her.

[17:22:46] Your

[17:22:48] weakenings will

[17:22:50] become your worst nightmares.

[17:22:56] My master, feed off the heart creation

[17:23:00] and you will breed terror in the hearts

[17:23:03] of men. once more. There's still a

[17:23:06] chance before he fully recovers.

[17:23:10] Your blade dulls against my skin.

[17:23:22] I can already feel them

[17:23:26] respond to the shard.

[17:23:31] The path of creation and I be as one.

[17:23:59] Diablo's corruption is spreading. I need

[17:24:02] to move faster.

[17:24:21] The only escape from

[17:24:23] fear is

[17:24:27] death.

[17:24:29] Terror smug hopes meager

[17:24:35] light. Oh, have I relish the

[17:24:38] fear of a stalward hero.

[17:24:57] Terror will pervert your

[17:25:01] soul.

[17:25:03] Mortal, you are the first to witness

[17:25:07] true fear.

[17:25:32] Yeah. Heat.

[17:25:44] Yes. Let the panic wash over you.

[17:25:55] No. Do there.

[17:26:09] Follow the light.

[17:26:32] You're okay, but you look

[17:26:38] horrible. I was worried you wouldn't

[17:26:40] make it, so I stuck around. Thank you.

[17:26:44] And the other villagers? They all ran

[17:26:46] back to town. I'll have to head home

[17:26:49] soon, too. My mother must be worried

[17:26:52] sick. I need to find Captain Azmir.

[17:26:57] Death is quite the teacher.

[17:27:12] Asmir,

[17:27:13] I became brave, Captain Amir, just like

[17:27:17] you said I should.

[17:27:27] Adventurer, Captain Ammeir wanted you to

[17:27:29] take his sword back to Ashold

[17:27:32] Cemetery so that he could always guard

[17:27:35] his post. I will. Thank you for saving

[17:27:38] Noah. I know that there is deep terror

[17:27:41] in this world, but Noah and I will still

[17:27:45] have comfort in each other thanks to

[17:27:46] you.

[17:28:09] Death comes to

[17:28:12] [Applause]

[17:28:13] all. May his spirit thrive.

[17:28:36] [Music]

[17:28:42] How How could this happen? Diablo is

[17:28:46] reforming as we speak, leaving us little

[17:28:48] time. I could sense his revival even

[17:28:51] without using the astral anchor. No

[17:28:53] mortal is capable of harming Diablo

[17:28:56] while he has the world stone shard, let

[17:28:59] alone defeating him. When I shattered

[17:29:02] the world stone, my sword eldu

[17:29:05] disappeared. But I can sense it

[17:29:07] somewhere

[17:29:08] north. A pulse of hope. Theiel says that

[17:29:12] there's a way to stop Diablo. El Druin.

[17:29:16] It lies somewhere north. And with it, we

[17:29:19] have a chance. Just a

[17:29:22] chance. Well, I suppose we can't be too

[17:29:24] picky. The place you speak of is Ariot

[17:29:28] Crater. It' be wise to start searching

[17:29:30] there. There's no more room for

[17:29:32] miscalculations now that Diablo is out

[17:29:34] there. Take the time to prepare yourself

[17:29:37] as I'm sure the demons that infest Ariot

[17:29:40] Crater have begun to stir.

[17:29:45] [Music]

[17:29:47] My insight grows. Are you prepared to

[17:29:50] travel to the north? I doubt your

[17:29:53] journey will be

[17:29:54] easy. Yet, you must do everything in

[17:29:57] your power to claim the sword of justice

[17:30:01] within reason. When we are near to El

[17:30:04] Druan, I will be able to sense its

[17:30:06] location more clearly. You will need to

[17:30:09] search until then. Tyel needs me to get

[17:30:12] close to where El Druan might be so that

[17:30:15] he can pinpoint it. Do you have a path

[17:30:18] in mind? Caution.

[17:30:21] El Druin could have been flung from the

[17:30:23] mountain. Ideally, in front of

[17:30:25] witnesses. Travel to the south of the

[17:30:28] Dreadlands and proceed towards the

[17:30:30] crater. There are cities and towns that

[17:30:32] might have seen something. All right,

[17:30:35] I'll head that way. Remember, if there

[17:30:39] is anything Diablo fears, it is that

[17:30:42] sword. Be safe if you can, but be

[17:30:45] victorious no matter what.

[17:30:59] [Music]

[17:31:21] Now come on.

[17:31:48] Fear

[17:31:50] not.

[17:32:11] Heat. Heat.

[17:32:41] I must wait.

[17:33:10] Your grave beckons.

[17:33:40] Fear not the end.

[17:33:55] [Music]

[17:34:06] My insight grows.

[17:34:31] What an utter ruin.

[17:34:41] Everything touched by the world stone

[17:34:44] has

[17:34:46] been

[17:34:50] corrupted. The sword has to be here.

[17:34:53] Maybe someone in that village saw

[17:34:55] something. I can feel the weight on your

[17:34:59] soul. But El Druin is within a few days

[17:35:03] walk. I know it.

[17:35:21] What are you doing out there? Over here,

[17:35:23] there's shelter.

[17:35:27] I can carry Yanka to camp and then I'll

[17:35:29] come back for you. Just hold on. Don't

[17:35:32] try to take the splinters out yourself.

[17:35:34] What happened to them? This storm.

[17:35:38] There's a red haze in the air and then

[17:35:39] it it sweeps through. It cuts like

[17:35:42] broken glass. Whole villages just turn

[17:35:45] into those

[17:35:47] monsters. Shardorn

[17:35:51] of Get back. They're changing.

[17:35:57] The ancestors.

[17:36:02] Stop moving, Marcus. It doesn't look

[17:36:04] like any of the splinters pierced your

[17:36:05] skin. We should check twice. Listen, I

[17:36:09] need to treat him right now. My boy

[17:36:12] Jacob, he's at the old church not far.

[17:36:14] He He went I don't want to burden you,

[17:36:16] stranger, but there's nobody else. I'll

[17:36:18] get him and then maybe you can help me

[17:36:22] answer a few questions. I will.

[17:36:29] to me. Don't let it happen to me.

[17:37:00] Damn. At least Jacob's not

[17:37:05] [Music]

[17:37:09] here. Small

[17:37:11] footprints. Maybe he made it. It looks

[17:37:15] unsteady, but he could have climbed down

[17:37:17] there. Brave boy.

[17:37:21] [Music]

[17:37:28] Wait, don't move.

[17:37:41] Who are you?

[17:37:48] Your mother asked me to bring you back.

[17:37:52] Why would you come down here at all?

[17:37:54] Father Benford was helping people. He

[17:37:57] has medicine. Mom's always looking for

[17:37:59] more. I want to help, too. Listen to me.

[17:38:03] You need to hide. I'll find an exit.

[17:38:06] Don't come out until I tell you. I will.

[17:38:10] I promise.

[17:38:14] [Applause]

[17:38:19] [Music]

[17:38:36] [ __ ] heat.

[17:38:50] [Music]

[17:39:01] I need to Is

[17:39:02] this

[17:39:05] Blackstone? How?

[17:39:08] Dad told me to hide, but he won't come

[17:39:11] back.

[17:39:12] Alyssa,

[17:39:23] wait.

[17:39:26] Why? Why didn't you save

[17:39:32] me? Your fears are number

[17:39:49] That requires a

[17:39:57] course. My

[17:40:03] call. Not yet.

[17:40:06] Come on, wake up.

[17:40:19] This rotten haze is everywhere. There's

[17:40:22] a refuge south of Sorre's walls. It's

[17:40:25] not much shelter, but the monsters leave

[17:40:27] us alone. You should use it.

[17:40:41] For Diablo to whisper to you so

[17:40:45] clearly, it must be connected to the

[17:40:48] world stone.

[17:41:07] [Applause]

[17:41:22] You made it. I thought you might.

[17:41:28] So, tell me more, stranger. What brings

[17:41:31] you to the dreadlands? And how can I

[17:41:33] help? I'm looking for a weapon that fell

[17:41:37] nearby. A sword that gleams like the

[17:41:40] sun. It would have appeared when Ariadot

[17:41:43] broke. I've not seen a gleaming sword,

[17:41:46] but I see that light in my dreams.

[17:41:52] When Maltariat broke, we broke, too.

[17:41:57] No me, no

[17:41:59] home, just ruin your

[17:42:03] ashes. I wanted to believe in our

[17:42:07] salvation, but I can't see it down

[17:42:15] here. All we see is what we will never

[17:42:20] have again.

[17:42:24] The light shone from somewhere deep in

[17:42:27] the gully, but the storm's even worse

[17:42:29] there. It could turn you in minutes.

[17:42:32] Unless My husband Jeffrey, he scouted

[17:42:36] the tunnels more than once. Yeah, you

[17:42:38] might find him and his crew outside

[17:42:40] Storere waving their swords at bandits

[17:42:43] or down in the Grey Wards doing the

[17:42:45] same. He never stopped being a guard, I

[17:42:47] suppose.

[17:42:50] Surprisingly

[17:42:52] enjoyable.

[17:43:00] Confused by your spoils, go find what

[17:43:03] warmth you can.

[17:44:28] Rathma blesses his

[17:44:46] own. Heat. Heat.

[17:45:39] I am the light shows. Loat.

[17:46:34] I hope you have

[17:46:58] Hammer's

[17:46:59] [Music]

[17:47:04] getting beat's making another coffin

[17:47:24] Now heat.

[17:47:39] You are warned, Tread. Another plague

[17:47:42] there. Cut them all down.

[17:47:54] Help me.

[17:48:00] [Music]

[17:48:07] Vandals. You would tear down your home

[17:48:09] to steal the bricks. Dark hearts will

[17:48:12] never

[17:48:19] [Applause]

[17:48:26] surp I tried.

[17:48:31] It is a naive voice that all can be

[17:48:35] permitted within our halls. But you are

[17:48:39] among the

[17:48:49] chosen blood. Please call us and you'll

[17:48:53] get your very own war.

[17:49:00] This place is no shelter at all.

[17:49:04] We've got a struggler here. I saw first.

[17:49:15] Live one, eh? Come on through. Let's

[17:49:18] jabber.

[17:49:20] I'm looking for Jeffrey. You know of

[17:49:23] him? Oh, Jeffrey. riing people up like

[17:49:28] he's the law around here. Huh? Afraid he

[17:49:32] And if you're looking for him, well then

[17:49:36] you are,

[17:49:47] too. Fine, I'll calm up.

[17:50:05] You did my job for me there, adventurer,

[17:50:08] and I appreciate it. He was pinching

[17:50:10] supplies at every opportunity. You're

[17:50:14] Jeffrey. I've got a letter to show you.

[17:50:17] Mera said you could help me. Not here.

[17:50:21] I'd like to keep her name quiet around

[17:50:23] these parts. She's still trying to make

[17:50:27] a bloodless go of

[17:50:29] things. Damn cruel about

[17:50:32] Alpa. But thank you for letting me know.

[17:50:35] I'd rather hear the bad news than

[17:50:37] wonder. I've got somewhere safer. It's

[17:50:41] through somewhere worse, but it's out of

[17:50:44] the storm.

[17:50:52] away from them. Thank you,

[17:50:55] customer. Just Jeffrey, get to the west.

[17:50:59] My people have got room for

[17:51:01] you. At first, it was just the crooks

[17:51:03] and heathens Lared Amos sent here to the

[17:51:06] graves. Then it was the

[17:51:08] barbarians, the

[17:51:11] refugees, then the disloyal

[17:51:14] guards, then us.

[17:51:19] from there. Watch

[17:51:29] yourself. Here we are. It's a bit rough,

[17:51:32] but we've got a few former guards here

[17:51:34] and a little food and space to share.

[17:51:37] We're almost ready to throw in the camp.

[17:51:40] Circle it.

[17:51:58] Seems you can find almost anything.

[17:52:00] We're wasting you on insects. Why don't

[17:52:03] you tell me what it is that you need?

[17:52:05] Your wife said you knew the tunnels and

[17:52:07] the gully. I need to get through them

[17:52:10] safely. I won't promise you safety, but

[17:52:13] I don't much mind. I'll get you there

[17:52:16] and soon. Just give me a few hours of

[17:52:19] your time first. Lead aims keeping most

[17:52:22] everyone out of stall break. His

[17:52:25] favorites are safe and warm while the

[17:52:27] rest of us suffer. With the right plan,

[17:52:31] we can take the city back from him.

[17:52:33] You'd make all the difference. As long

[17:52:36] as he is in power, the balance

[17:52:40] teeters. Let me help. Good. A couple of

[17:52:44] our best went missing near the old

[17:52:47] prison. If they're alive, it would be

[17:52:50] good to have them back. And we'll need

[17:52:53] supplies. There's a dealer in the

[17:52:55] graves, Ly who smuggles for us, but he's

[17:52:59] been quiet for a week. First, show your

[17:53:03] letter to the man near the entrance. He

[17:53:06] used to serve with Albert. You have

[17:53:08] something for me? Just this

[17:53:13] shame about Alpert. A good man. His

[17:53:16] brother served with this too. Landre

[17:53:19] couldn't bring himself to fight the

[17:53:21] Lair's folk. He should know what

[17:53:24] happened. It might change.

[17:53:33] [Music]

[17:53:58] pay up landrich amends for your time in

[17:54:02] the guard.

[17:54:13] That's That's one less problem for

[17:54:15] today. Thank you. Before you go, I spoke

[17:54:20] to your old comrades. They wanted you to

[17:54:23] have

[17:54:24] this. I'm sorry.

[17:54:30] That's

[17:54:35] that's sounds just like it did when he

[17:54:38] started on about this resistance

[17:54:40] nonsense. Albert's gone, isn't he? It

[17:54:43] was the le

[17:54:45] soldiers. Jeffrey Stallic means to take

[17:54:48] the city from them. Stallic doesn't

[17:54:51] matter how many he loses. He just keeps

[17:54:54] on. You tell him.

[17:54:58] Tell them I need

[17:54:59] time, but I'm thinking on it.

[17:55:04] Death is quite the teacher.

[17:55:23] risk goes up, so prices go up. Your

[17:55:28] delivery is late. Me? No, I

[17:55:33] uh Listen, you leech. We're the ones

[17:55:36] sticking our necks out

[17:55:38] here. Hey, hey, keep your mouths shut.

[17:55:43] All of you. discretion. Huh? We're in a

[17:55:47] spot. Talk. The toughs around here said

[17:55:51] I had to share or they'd take my

[17:55:54] toes. I need my toes. If you get back

[17:55:58] what they stole, that's

[17:56:08] a without a cannot.

[17:56:20] Well, now

[17:56:25] how there are more supplies to the

[17:56:27] south. Oh, thank you.

[17:56:45] [Music]

[17:57:04] The great fight continues on.

[17:57:11] the

[17:57:13] balance. You're not one of

[17:57:17] them. All those monsters just piled up

[17:57:22] like a bloody male.

[17:57:38] You got them. All right. Make for

[17:57:41] Jeffrey's camp. They'll seat your

[17:57:43] wounds. Thanks.

[17:58:26] Passed the wounded, fed the hungry.

[17:58:29] Liy's a grub, but at least he's help.

[17:58:38] Everyone's at risk as long as Amr's

[17:58:40] breathing. They're going to sharpen up,

[17:58:42] adventurer. You won't recognize this

[17:58:44] rabble after a few more training days.

[17:58:56] Ama acts like the law is whatever he

[17:58:58] wants it to be, but it's bigger than

[17:59:01] him. It's bigger than all of us. You'll

[17:59:05] learn. Welcome back. We're in a much

[17:59:07] better place thanks to you. Just need a

[17:59:10] few more days

[17:59:12] preparation. I hope you'll join us when

[17:59:15] the time comes. I've heard a lot about

[17:59:17] how you handle things.

[17:59:20] You're not just after treasure in those

[17:59:22] tunnels, are you? You have

[17:59:25] a higher calling. The only treasure that

[17:59:28] matters is a sword. It might return this

[17:59:32] land to stability, and it could do the

[17:59:34] same for many others.

[17:59:37] Helping people counts as a higher

[17:59:40] calling, even if it would get you

[17:59:42] stabbed in the

[17:59:43] graves. Meet me outside when you're

[17:59:46] ready to go to the tunnels.

[18:00:20] The storm's been a menace for a while.

[18:00:22] Lately, it's getting worse. Twisting

[18:00:25] people into those things. Good people or

[18:00:29] bad, strong willed or me, doesn't

[18:00:35] matter. Shoot his

[18:00:39] gates. Without a corpse, I cannot.

[18:00:49] Death is

[18:00:52] inevitable. The power of

[18:00:56] creation gone mad.

[18:01:11] No, not yet.

[18:01:14] You need to stick close to the ground.

[18:01:16] Cover your eyes if it kicks up.

[18:01:22] It's getting worse, Jeffrey. We can just

[18:01:26] reach that ravine.

[18:01:34] Fear not the end.

[18:01:44] Another

[18:01:45] vision. Where is it now?

[18:01:50] Travel to

[18:01:51] nothing again.

[18:02:04] Because you couldn't save it. Because

[18:02:06] you couldn't save me.

[18:02:27] You won't break my

[18:02:30] will. F. I won't let you take her.

[18:02:34] Easin. Don't

[18:02:55] It's so

[18:02:59] cold. I can't breathe.

[18:03:38] You fight for

[18:03:41] justice. Do not give in.

[18:03:51] Jeffrey, where are you? We need to fall

[18:03:54] back.

[18:04:18] He is

[18:04:20] lost. We may be able to free him, but I

[18:04:24] have not much strength left.

[18:04:29] You have to

[18:04:45] It wasn't her. She's safe. She

[18:04:53] It wasn't her. She said I would never

[18:04:57] take her fire

[18:04:59] away. Whatever you did to help me. Tyel,

[18:05:02] are you there? I can feel the storm

[18:05:04] under my skin. Led Amar keeps saying

[18:05:08] that the light of

[18:05:10] Zacharoom is the only shelter from the

[18:05:15] storm back at the camp. We can try. I

[18:05:20] won't let you down.

[18:05:40] Not yet.

[18:06:14] the god.

[18:06:47] [ __ ] Charge.

[18:07:02] How many people will you starve by

[18:07:04] scavenging from my table? Surrender and

[18:07:08] your men can go back to the graves. Your

[18:07:12] wife and your Mongol boy too with you as

[18:07:16] lead.

[18:07:19] Scatter through the

[18:07:25] tunnel. Keep moving.

[18:07:36] [Music]

[18:07:53] I must.

[18:08:01] Your corpses are mine. You look horrid.

[18:08:05] What is

[18:08:06] it? What happened? Jeffrey, his camp was

[18:08:10] raided. The resistance scattered. I

[18:08:13] don't know if he's been captured or

[18:08:29] [Music]

[18:08:31] no. I tried to live beside these people,

[18:08:35] bandaged their wounds, hung up my axe to

[18:08:38] make them feel safe. L Amar will never

[18:08:41] feel safe again. The clear-headed among

[18:08:43] my old tribe are still in the hills.

[18:08:45] Their camps are within a day's ride. The

[18:08:48] Al don't care what happens to the city

[18:08:50] or me. But if they hear it from someone

[18:08:52] new, Storreak could be a home for them.

[18:08:55] It should be. If you'll help, rally as

[18:08:58] many as you can. I'll gather the

[18:09:00] resistance and meet you when I'm done.

[18:09:05] There is always more to comprehend.

[18:09:49] Death is quite the teacher.

[18:10:12] patient.

[18:10:19] Are you all right?

[18:10:22] No. If we all want the same thing, peace

[18:10:26] and a place

[18:10:39] One

[18:10:41] life. Everyone here has watched someone

[18:10:44] close to them starve, get beaten by the

[18:10:47] guard. You're going to kill me. I'm

[18:10:50] going to give you a home in the heights.

[18:10:53] The lad sent you against us because he's

[18:10:55] afraid. If we bring him down, we can

[18:10:57] make store break big enough for

[18:10:59] everyone. Go back to the Grey Wards. As

[18:11:02] long as you don't set foot in this camp

[18:11:04] again, you can keep your life. But if

[18:11:08] you want a better one, you'll fight

[18:11:10] beside me. I heard your people were mad.

[18:11:14] Slavering maniacs. You're lucky all you

[18:11:16] did was cut me.

[18:11:43] [Music]

[18:11:58] Heat. Heat.

[18:12:08] [Music]

[18:12:34] You had to try and get all your friends

[18:12:36] in. Slice out.

[18:12:40] Prevail. Execute them all. The Leard

[18:12:43] promised me one life for one life.

[18:12:47] They've entered the storehouse.

[18:12:49] Reinforce the gates.

[18:13:12] Fear not the end.

[18:13:41] Heat. Heat.

[18:13:54] [Music]

[18:14:14] You Your grave

[18:14:24] beckons. Blesses his own.

[18:14:44] [Music]

[18:14:59] The balance is

[18:15:10] Let's cut their bow strings and soak

[18:15:11] their fletchings. Are you sure?

[18:15:38] Any roaches scurrying about? All quiet,

[18:15:42] sir. Why not? Please

[18:15:46] don't. I want just

[18:16:32] [Music]

[18:16:46] here.

[18:16:52] Our comrades are reclaiming more

[18:16:54] parcels. If you can deal with these

[18:16:57] bloody, I'll get their attention.

[18:17:07] Clear. Go.

[18:17:10] Thank you.

[18:17:18] Where is he now?

[18:17:31] [Music]

[18:17:56] [Applause]

[18:18:03] regret this. I don't make bad.

[18:18:17] Your brave beckons.

[18:18:20] You're going to help our friends. All

[18:18:23] that for a couple of fine. I see this is

[18:18:27] very important.

[18:18:31] Surprisingly enjoyable.

[18:18:34] [Music]

[18:19:14] Hammer's

[18:19:15] Appreciate the

[18:19:40] chat. Die.

[18:19:46] I am ready.

[18:19:57] Your grave beckons.

[18:20:16] The layer of Stormbreak won't let your

[18:20:19] people into the city no matter how bad

[18:20:20] the storm gets. Morenna wants Morena.

[18:20:25] She traded her dignity to be coddled in

[18:20:27] a house of stone. One that eats more of

[18:20:30] our land every day. Some deaths are

[18:20:34] proud. Many of your tribe died trying to

[18:20:37] enter Stormbreak.

[18:20:41] She sent you to rattle your jaws at me.

[18:20:44] One of our young Bravos, Wolf Rick, was

[18:20:47] twisted by the storm. He deserves mercy

[18:20:50] and death. And I won't ask my own to

[18:20:53] take on his

[18:21:03] curse.

[18:21:04] [Applause]

[18:21:23] Remember?

[18:21:39] Ref. Faster than I expected. Tell

[18:21:43] Morenna she will have our axes for one

[18:21:46] raid.

[18:21:51] Rafma blesses his own. Reloading.

[18:22:30] Your deathbound.

[18:22:34] No, not

[18:22:56] yet. I'm sending them to fight the ones

[18:22:58] they're supposed to live with.

[18:23:02] How did Jeffrey do it? How do you? I

[18:23:05] don't see how that can possibly turn out

[18:23:07] right. Fighting is never easy. But it

[18:23:10] was this or watching everyone wither

[18:23:12] away in the storm. He didn't think he

[18:23:14] had any other choice. What if he's Do

[18:23:17] not dwell on his end before you are sure

[18:23:20] of it. You're right.

[18:23:22] [Music]

[18:23:34] I promised you my services and I shall

[18:23:38] deliver. I've shared Morenna's words

[18:23:40] with a few

[18:23:44] [Music]

[18:23:48] folk. I didn't realize

[18:23:53] that. You go ahead.

[18:24:01] That way. Quick and quiet.

[18:24:40] Forward.

[18:24:43] Mercy for any who throw down their

[18:24:45] weapons. Send the rest to their gods.

[18:24:48] You ruin yourselves as you do in these

[18:24:51] walls and you will be ready for it.

[18:24:57] Nice statue. It'll be fun to pull down.

[18:25:04] I must wait.

[18:25:25] All are damned because of violence like

[18:25:28] yours,

[18:25:31] Jeffrey.

[18:25:44] My

[18:25:45] ancestors, are

[18:25:52] you

[18:25:55] Morena? Been a while since I've seen you

[18:25:57] like this,

[18:26:00] adventurer. That icon AR has been

[18:26:13] No one else has to die. Amr, you can

[18:26:16] leave. Where are you

[18:26:28] hiding? These

[18:26:31] corpses you've been collecting. and the

[18:26:34] shard.

[18:26:36] You already know the truth. The visions,

[18:26:41] the

[18:26:43] voices. You've heard them, too. Hundreds

[18:26:46] fell to the

[18:26:48] storm. It reaches us

[18:26:51] all. Even

[18:26:58] here, if

[18:27:00] they can endure it.

[18:27:10] only with

[18:27:15] love. Yeah.

[18:27:20] [Applause]

[18:27:41] Increases the light

[18:27:48] broken. The torch must be the old

[18:27:58] Go after him. I'm not leaving you.

[18:28:01] [Music]

[18:28:25] piece of his talisman. Shelter from the

[18:28:28] storm. It was keeping him

[18:28:31] human. With this, we could protect more

[18:28:34] of them. The grays, what's left of the

[18:28:37] owl, the whole city, maybe.

[18:28:40] That

[18:28:42] fragment, it can't be enough for

[18:28:44] everyone.

[18:28:46] But it's enough for you, isn't it? It

[18:28:49] will have to be.

[18:28:53] It's

[18:28:54] yours. Whatever you need is yours. Find

[18:28:57] your sword.

[18:29:01] He used this circle to

[18:29:03] flee. One more thing he stole from us.

[18:29:11] [Music]

[18:29:17] You belong to me.

[18:29:21] I have to do this. Even if his talisman

[18:29:24] doesn't hold

[18:29:45] Why is this

[18:29:47] sword? Why would the light bound me

[18:29:55] so

[18:29:57] charge of course?

[18:30:04] No,

[18:30:06] I walk through the

[18:30:08] storm. I am

[18:30:22] chosen.

[18:30:39] Heat. Heat.

[18:30:53] You defy the

[18:30:55] light. You are guilty.

[18:31:27] I have seen what is to

[18:31:31] come for his

[18:31:34] birth.

[18:31:37] Finally, El Druin awaits.

[18:31:43] [Music]

[18:31:49] Not

[18:32:01] again. I will not obey

[18:32:05] you. Never. Never.

[18:32:10] Do you

[18:32:27] see? This is the price of your defiance.

[18:32:40] You are

[18:32:43] broken like your

[18:32:48] [Music]

[18:32:54] world. Whatever shadow darkens your

[18:32:58] soul, do not fear.

[18:33:06] Justice is

[18:33:09] yours. You have proven it again and

[18:33:15] again.

[18:33:16] I I am still with

[18:33:19] you. Take the sword.

[18:33:35] I couldn't wield

[18:33:38] it. But why,

[18:33:41] Tyel? Have I pushed the balance too far?

[18:33:45] It cannot be

[18:33:47] so. I have watched

[18:33:50] you. Whatever you have done, you have

[18:33:54] always striven for

[18:33:57] justice. Justice requires sacrifice.

[18:34:01] and

[18:34:02] sometimes retribution. It's your

[18:34:05] sword. Can't you make it listen? No.

[18:34:11] I see

[18:34:13] now your soul has been

[18:34:17] poisoned. By breaking the shards,

[18:34:20] denying evil their

[18:34:23] power, it has changed your very

[18:34:26] essence. and El Druan

[18:34:30] disagrees. All you have done is what you

[18:34:34] have been required to do by what I set

[18:34:38] in motion.

[18:34:41] You can do everything right and still

[18:34:44] find that it doesn't work

[18:34:47] out. And I haven't done everything

[18:34:50] right. Mortals are the balance of their

[18:34:53] deeds, not the least of them.

[18:34:56] Carry the sword with

[18:34:59] you. We do not falter

[18:35:19] here. Heat. Heat.

[18:35:50] That requires a

[18:35:52] corpse. Give it more

[18:35:59] time. Die and rot.

[18:36:22] [Music]

[18:36:25] Your grave beckons.

[18:37:01] Your corpses are mine.

[18:37:25] The Lord is dead. He'll never trouble

[18:37:28] Storreak again. But I think the storm is

[18:37:32] here to stay. I know we'll endure it.

[18:37:35] You've given We're assembling a ruling

[18:37:37] council and one of their first acts will

[18:37:40] be to hold a feast in your honor. If you

[18:37:43] can stay, that is.

[18:37:45] I did, but I cost myself too much in the

[18:37:50] process. It's useless to me.

[18:37:54] You've made the North a safe refuge. Not

[18:37:57] just for us, not just for one tribe, for

[18:38:01] hundreds, thousands. We'll expand the

[18:38:03] city. make Stall Break big enough to fit

[18:38:06] in all of the Grey Wards. It's thanks to

[18:38:09] you as much as any of us.

[18:38:12] And that's a good thing for now until

[18:38:16] your wall can't keep the hells out any

[18:38:19] longer.

[18:38:38] You won't get this work cheaper

[18:38:40] somewhere else.

[18:38:54] [Music]

[18:39:02] Mortal

[18:39:04] souls are

[18:39:06] fragile. We must find a way to remove

[18:39:08] the curse upon

[18:39:13] yours. The mage seems resourceful. You

[18:39:17] look miserable.

[18:39:20] What happened?

[18:39:24] I have El Druin, but I can't wield it.

[18:39:28] When I tried, it

[18:39:30] burned. Tyel says my soul is

[18:39:33] damaged from breaking the World Stone

[18:39:36] shards. That's not entirely surprising.

[18:39:39] Wielding angelic weapons is never

[18:39:42] straightforward. And your soul

[18:39:45] is a complication.

[18:39:48] I do not mean that the way it

[18:39:50] sounds. You have taken on a burden. A

[18:39:54] truly uncertain

[18:39:56] one. If you're having second

[18:39:59] thoughts, I understand. I knew I'd

[18:40:02] onward

[18:40:04] then. Give me time to research. There

[18:40:07] may be a way to undo what's been done to

[18:40:09] your soul, though. At the very least, we

[18:40:13] might convince El Druin. Their plans as

[18:40:17] good as any I've

[18:40:20] got. I'll try not to lose my mind in the

[18:40:22] meantime.

[18:40:34] [Music]

[18:40:50] The glory of creation is within

[18:40:53] you. Succumb and be greater than you

[18:40:56] are.

[18:40:59] It's It's good to see you. How How are

[18:41:04] you?

[18:41:08] Not well. I've been hearing things,

[18:41:12] seeing things. Diablo,

[18:41:16] Elruin, the World Stone

[18:41:18] Shards. I feel like I'm going mad.

[18:41:24] Oh, you don't sound like yourself. Talk

[18:41:27] to Caron. I know he's been working on

[18:41:30] something. He'll help.

[18:41:35] What?

[18:41:37] My head.

[18:41:40] Steal yourself, mortal.

[18:41:43] I cannot.

[18:41:46] Everyone get out of here.

[18:41:50] More of them over by Vicks.

[18:41:59] Chsi, stay here and make sure they're

[18:42:02] all right.

[18:42:03] I'll deal with this.

[18:42:33] up. It's okay.

[18:42:44] I banished most of the shades. How is

[18:42:47] everyone here?

[18:42:50] Some bad wounds, but I bandaged them up.

[18:42:53] They'll be okay. I

[18:42:55] uh they'll be okay. Um I don't know what

[18:43:00] happened. That's

[18:43:01] enough. We can figure this out.

[18:43:26] Hold on. We got you.

[18:43:32] No, not me.

[18:43:36] What's going on? Just look around. It's

[18:43:41] bad. Get inside right now.

[18:43:47] It's what Tyrion was talking about,

[18:43:49] isn't it? A curse? I believe

[18:43:52] so. You need to fight it. Fill your mind

[18:43:56] with Listen to me very carefully. This

[18:44:00] darkness feeds off your fear and doubt.

[18:44:04] This won't be

[18:44:22] easy. Is mine.

[18:44:38] The dreadlands where El Druin fell. How

[18:44:41] am I here?

[18:44:52] Eldrun recoils at your soul.

[18:44:56] That voice. It's not me.

[18:44:59] I can stop this. You are a fish

[18:45:02] swallowing a hook, lured by your hopes

[18:45:05] and dreams.

[18:45:08] I will use you druid. But you know what

[18:45:14] awaits you.

[18:45:22] [Music]

[18:45:47] Is anyone hurt? Did I? The guards have

[18:45:51] been summoned. And Chi is talking with

[18:45:53] them.

[18:45:54] Reek, we'll be all right. And I have the

[18:45:58] beginnings of a plan, but we need to

[18:46:01] move quickly. I couldn't use the sword.

[18:46:04] The voice said I would fail, that I

[18:46:07] would get worse.

[18:46:09] Words of despair sound truer than most

[18:46:12] others. That does not make them correct.

[18:46:15] You're right. El Druan was made to be

[18:46:18] wielded against injustice.

[18:46:21] I just need to push through.

[18:46:30] No, I

[18:46:32] can't. You can't wield it yet. I

[18:46:37] uh think I have contained the curse upon

[18:46:40] you, but it remains. Clearly, there's no

[18:46:44] telling how long my enchantment will

[18:46:46] hold. We must repair your soul before it

[18:46:49] gets worse.

[18:46:51] In my studies, I learned of an eyelet

[18:46:53] far to the north whose inhabitants

[18:46:55] practice a right to strip away the

[18:46:57] soul's impurities. Their sacred sight

[18:47:00] lies within the lost Pelgane Empire. We

[18:47:03] should depart at once.

[18:47:06] We There's a curse on my soul. I won't

[18:47:09] risk both of us dying to it. I'm going

[18:47:12] alone. Stop and think. This is uncharted

[18:47:17] territory and you're

[18:47:20] volatile. Someone should watch over you.

[18:47:23] It's my problem to solve. The sword, the

[18:47:26] shards, all of it. This isn't up for

[18:47:28] debate. Let it go,

[18:47:31] Carson. We'll be safer here. That's

[18:47:35] inarguable. The guards outside are

[18:47:37] getting pretty restless.

[18:47:40] What's all this? Oh, nothing new. Our

[18:47:43] friend insists on rushing off alone.

[18:47:46] Heedless of the consequences. We're all

[18:47:48] to sit on our hands here so as to avoid

[18:47:51] the slightest injury.

[18:47:53] I

[18:47:55] see. I understand that you don't want to

[18:47:57] put anyone. Thank you,

[18:48:00] Charie. I won't. I'll stow away on Rem's

[18:48:04] boat and row the rest of the trip

[18:48:06] myself. This will

[18:48:09] work. It has to. Very well. Only you can

[18:48:13] see to your soul. One more piece of

[18:48:16] advice, if you'll accept it. Put the

[18:48:18] self-sacrifice aside. No one else is

[18:48:21] going to wield El Druin against Diablo.

[18:48:24] No one is more important.

[18:48:30] Koon, the great cycle continues

[18:48:38] onward.

[18:48:55] Heat. Heat.

[18:49:16] Uncle. Uncle, get up.

[18:49:23] Oh, thank you,

[18:49:26] stranger. Who are you to come here? I'm

[18:49:30] just a traveler.

[18:49:32] That's all. Where are these monsters

[18:49:34] coming from? I I don't know. I'm not out

[18:49:38] here for them. The storm started up and

[18:49:40] some of the men ran out to help.

[18:49:43] Grandfather said to stay inside, but

[18:49:48] I'm sorry for your

[18:49:50] uncle. Where did your grandfather go?

[18:49:54] I'm not sure. I thought he'd be tending

[18:49:56] to the house, but he's nowhere near. I

[18:50:00] just He has to be all right. Let's get

[18:50:04] you somewhere safer right now. Then

[18:50:07] maybe I can help find him.

[18:50:10] Yes. That's We can't let him die out

[18:50:13] here.

[18:50:15] Follow me.

[18:50:36] It's here. That house.

[18:50:41] Harder. It's me. Open up. I found

[18:50:45] someone.

[18:50:46] Mom, you're alive.

[18:50:50] Where's Beni? Where's Bos? And who is

[18:50:52] this? There were Mroi everywhere. The

[18:50:56] strangers save me.

[18:51:01] The beast said already taken her uncle

[18:51:03] when I

[18:51:04] arrived. I'm sorry.

[18:51:11] You You're not responsible. Leave the

[18:51:14] sorrows to us.

[18:51:17] Will you be safe here for a few minutes?

[18:51:22] Safe? Depends on how hungry the Mroshi

[18:51:26] are. Who think we can survive the

[18:51:28] weather? If that's what you're

[18:51:30] asking. Most of us. The sages haven't

[18:51:34] sent a Tempest to us in

[18:51:36] years. They must figure we're doing

[18:51:38] perfectly fine

[18:51:42] alone. Welcome to E1.

[18:51:48] Tull. Help. You have to help.

[18:51:54] Bas and I went to the north shrine. His

[18:51:58] That's my grandfather. I'll find him.

[18:52:00] Bring him back if you can.

[18:52:04] Thank you, son. Great and more. Watch

[18:52:09] over us.

[18:52:22] Great

[18:52:23] unmold. Turn the storm away from our

[18:52:32] own. My thanks. You have an odd cast

[18:52:36] about you, but you fight like nothing

[18:52:38] else. What are you doing on? I need to

[18:52:42] visit one of your sacred places to

[18:52:45] cleanse my soul and defeat a demon lord

[18:52:47] that threatens us all.

[18:52:50] But first, I told your family I'd bring

[18:52:53] you back. I am grateful for your

[18:52:55] protection, Traveler. And I fear.

[18:52:59] No. No. Get back. Run. Are you unwell?

[18:53:05] What is wrong?

[18:53:09] Your darkness will find no purchase

[18:53:11] here.

[18:53:24] What I've done should help, but I've

[18:53:27] never felt a soul so broken. Stop

[18:53:30] fighting and listen to Meowin's

[18:53:33] words. Calm within, calm

[18:53:36] without. Tranquility waits below the

[18:53:39] crashing of the

[18:53:40] waves. Peace in the hurricane's eye.

[18:53:44] I appreciate the

[18:53:46] magic. Less so the lecture.

[18:53:50] Who are you? Latara, a tempest of

[18:53:53] Pelgane. You and Hol seen enough

[18:53:56] darkness

[18:53:57] already. Let's hear more about your

[18:53:59] demon

[18:54:02] lord. I haven't forgotten about you, old

[18:54:05] man. You'll be all right.

[18:54:09] I'm sorry for the danger I've placed you

[18:54:11] in.

[18:54:13] But Diablo, the Lord of Terror himself

[18:54:16] is

[18:54:17] rising. I need to break this curse on my

[18:54:20] soul or he will devour us all.

[18:54:24] Is there anything you can tell me that

[18:54:26] would help? Do not apologize to me for

[18:54:28] what you carry

[18:54:30] within. There is a blight upon

[18:54:33] you. But I see that you do not submit.

[18:54:36] The way will be quite dangerous.

[18:54:39] I know of a guide, but I would not

[18:54:43] volunteer. Thank you.

[18:54:47] Hear that? If you insist on fighting, I

[18:54:50] have a foe for you. Come on. We can't

[18:54:53] let the Mroshi get inside.

[18:55:05] Be

[18:55:07] gone.

[18:55:26] Heat. Heat.

[18:55:45] This place gets worse every year.

[18:55:49] You fought well despite the darkness in

[18:55:52] your soul. And I sense a light within

[18:55:55] you striving mightily to hold it

[18:55:58] back. Maybe we can help each other.

[18:56:01] Don't strain yourself. Just guide me

[18:56:03] through this spiral. Tell me what I need

[18:56:05] to do and wait on the shore. I can take

[18:56:07] care of the rest. It's not that simple.

[18:56:10] The soul is only made pure in the sight

[18:56:12] of others. You'll require a right,

[18:56:15] master. I can do that for you, but you

[18:56:18] told needs help. More than Pelgane will

[18:56:23] give. I have been called to visit the

[18:56:25] spiral and confer with one of the great

[18:56:29] unmorted. I could use a fierce fighter

[18:56:32] at my back. Then we all agreed. When do

[18:56:35] we leave?

[18:56:37] You are gone.

[18:56:40] The Tara, it would fill my heart for you

[18:56:43] to stay. The stranger need your Yes, the

[18:56:48] mist can confound even practice

[18:56:50] tempests. And

[18:56:52] we have endured the storms and Amaroi

[18:56:55] since you left. Ian Dal can protect

[18:56:57] itself. All you need to do is help the

[18:57:01] stranger and then you can come back,

[18:57:04] right? Perhaps the unmour just wants to

[18:57:07] talk. Make Satra's breath. Peel

[18:57:10] yourselves. I'll gather offerings and

[18:57:13] prepare our boat. Give me a few minutes.

[18:57:18] I'm grateful for your kindness and for

[18:57:21] grandfather's life, too. You would have

[18:57:24] done the same thing in my place. I

[18:57:26] thought outsiders were all bad.

[18:57:29] It's my favorite flower. It can grow

[18:57:33] even in the snow sometimes. I have not

[18:57:36] seen a traveler on these shores for

[18:57:38] decades. It must be warmer where you're

[18:57:41] staying. Will you watch over

[18:57:44] Latara? She has always had rough waters

[18:57:47] before her, and she has a good

[18:57:51] heart. It is a dangerous combination.

[18:58:02] [Music]

[18:58:04] Lara, do not deny us. Oh, yeah. We're

[18:58:09] lucky enough to get a visitor from

[18:58:10] afar. Just we give offerings to the

[18:58:14] unmold. But the storm,

[18:58:20] the storms are going longer and longer

[18:58:23] and ale seasons getting shorter and

[18:58:26] shorter. When Latara left with the

[18:58:28] Tempests, she was such a little thing.

[18:58:31] It must have been hard growing up away

[18:58:33] from home. I'll bet that's why Latara

[18:58:37] has her boat

[18:58:38] ready. She'll take you into the spiral.

[18:58:43] Journey safely.

[18:58:46] Come into the M. Take us up the western

[18:58:50] coast of the spiral. There should be a

[18:58:52] ritual pool a short walk away. I'll

[18:58:55] solve your problem first. Then you can

[18:58:58] help me with

[18:58:59] mine. The things I see in the

[18:59:03] spiral. They've gotten worse the past

[18:59:05] few

[18:59:09] years. Visions,

[18:59:12] memories, some help.

[18:59:15] Most

[18:59:17] taunt, but we should listen to all of

[18:59:20] them.

[18:59:28] We're on foot from here.

[18:59:32] It's freezing. It draws out the breath,

[18:59:35] doesn't

[18:59:36] it? To mingle with the last of proud

[18:59:39] Marowin's

[18:59:41] spirit will purify your soul. the same

[18:59:44] way with a bit more

[18:59:46] work. Come on, no wasting time. You

[18:59:50] mentioned talking to someone. Unmorted

[18:59:52] are the watchers of Pelgane. Tempests

[18:59:55] who've given themselves over to the

[18:59:56] mist. The unmorted are supposed to

[18:59:59] protect all the

[19:00:00] isisles. Somehow that doesn't include

[19:00:04] Ewan. The waters

[19:00:06] converge. This is

[19:00:08] it. Place the offerings on each altar.

[19:00:21] [Music]

[19:00:25] Stand in the middle of the pool and hold

[19:00:28] your

[19:00:32] breath. Discard your

[19:00:35] name. Forget your

[19:00:38] face. You are a vessel for what has come

[19:00:40] before.

[19:00:44] Not again.

[19:00:47] Call me free and tear your soul in

[19:00:49] [Music]

[19:00:56] half.

[19:00:58] No. Quick, slay those things. Don't

[19:01:01] leave the

[19:01:07] pool. Calm within. calm

[19:01:14] without it's not

[19:01:18] working

[19:01:21] what you are or bright

[19:01:25] master corruption mingles with Maran's

[19:01:29] breath you think to poison

[19:01:34] us again we defy your charge Archer

[19:01:41] great

[19:01:42] unmorted

[19:01:44] Zakonuk. I am here to answer your call.

[19:01:51] What in the hells is that? Sakarnic

[19:01:55] called me here. It wants something from

[19:01:57] me and we can't solve your problem

[19:02:01] alone. Great unmorted.

[19:02:04] The pleas of Ewan Tol have gone ignored

[19:02:06] by Pelgane for a

[19:02:08] generation. It is our duty to protect

[19:02:11] all within the

[19:02:13] Isisles. Do we not owe the same to the

[19:02:16] stranger in the grip of darkness?

[19:02:19] Belain has endured millennia. You think

[19:02:23] only of what you see today.

[19:02:27] Naive,

[19:02:28] neglectful, yet the unmorted are few.

[19:02:34] Join us and we will aid you.

[19:02:45] I knew

[19:02:48] it. I accept.

[19:03:01] You are bound to see

[19:03:04] Carlo. Bind us in the

[19:03:12] mists. When you are

[19:03:15] unmorted, you make well the storms

[19:03:19] yourself.

[19:03:40] What did you just agree to? I sealed a

[19:03:44] pact. I will breathe in more of the

[19:03:46] mists.

[19:03:48] become an unmort like Sakarnic after we

[19:03:51] fix your soul. That's brave. I

[19:03:55] don't. But you'll help me keep Sakarnic

[19:03:58] honest. If I don't make it out and you

[19:04:02] do, look after everyone on Ewan's top.

[19:04:05] Let's be off. Keep your eyes on me.

[19:04:08] Don't get lost.

[19:04:10] More pointless

[19:04:11] self-sacrifice. Others care nothing for

[19:04:14] it, if they even know.

[19:04:19] My soul is raging. Let me try to contain

[19:04:22] it.

[19:04:26] You are a tool for the happy. The

[19:04:28] darkness in you is getting worse. We

[19:04:31] have to move quickly. Whatever you

[19:04:33] hear. Do what the best parts of your

[19:04:36] soul tell you to do. I've been hearing a

[19:04:38] lot of voices. I can hardly keep track

[19:04:41] of all of them. The past is loud in the

[19:04:44] mist. The worst moments of all are

[19:04:47] loudest. Just don't forget the good

[19:04:49] you've done.

[19:04:56] Sanctuary is more liars and thieves than

[19:04:58] honest folk. It will rot whether you

[19:05:01] live or die

[19:05:04] tomorrow. You fancy yourself a hero,

[19:05:07] don't you? Please. You are near worth.

[19:05:11] You know what befalls those afflicted by

[19:05:13] the world's stone bag. Do you believe

[19:05:16] your fate would be any different? This

[19:05:19] must be it. Keep a hold on yourself.

[19:05:22] We're almost there.

[19:05:37] The sword of justice binds you to a

[19:05:40] fool's quest to pose a force a million

[19:05:43] times greater and older. castle to our

[19:05:47] side. Leave

[19:05:58] yourself a shrine to

[19:06:01] Marowin. Finally.

[19:06:04] Enter the waters, corrupted

[19:06:09] one. Be cleansed.

[19:06:17] This will work. It has to go stand

[19:06:22] before the

[19:06:28] unmorted. We died to any worth in your

[19:06:36] soul. Darkness will not leave unless you

[19:06:40] cut it free.

[19:06:59] Heat. Heat.

[19:07:29] Behold yourself.

[19:07:36] Then cast out what does not serve.

[19:08:09] Destruction is part of you. Yet you

[19:08:12] shackle yourself in

[19:08:16] obligation to the thankless to an

[19:08:19] irredeemable

[19:08:21] world. I will free you to act in your

[19:08:24] own interest.

[19:08:35] It shall not contaminate the BR.

[19:08:43] I feel better and I don't hear its voice

[19:08:48] anymore. But I couldn't hurt it at all.

[19:08:52] It may take some time for your soul to

[19:08:53] fully recover.

[19:08:56] Though the light in you grows brighter

[19:08:57] already. Hold a moment. Let me try

[19:09:00] something. What is that blade?

[19:09:04] I've never seen anything like

[19:09:15] it. I cannot maintain the balance

[19:09:18] without

[19:09:19] Eldrin. Why doesn't it understand that?

[19:09:26] Sakanic, have you destroyed the

[19:09:28] corruption?

[19:09:30] It is driven far from the breath, and

[19:09:34] the creature has little interest in our

[19:09:38] capital. It is time to fulfill your

[19:09:41] promise. Hold

[19:09:43] on. Where did it

[19:09:45] go? What about others it might harm?

[19:09:49] If you must know its fate, then

[19:09:53] look. But let this be your last

[19:09:58] distraction from the

[19:10:01] ride. Your strength is needed now. We

[19:10:05] must tend the storm before it grows too

[19:10:09] great.

[19:10:42] No.

[19:10:46] We have to help them. All All the people

[19:10:50] on Ewan, they'll be

[19:10:53] slaughtered. Take us there now.

[19:10:57] No. The survival of Pelgane is of far

[19:11:01] greater import than one small aisle. As

[19:11:06] we waste time with your indulgence, the

[19:11:10] storms rage, the ice cracks, and

[19:11:14] Pelgane's future grows dimin. Pelgene is

[19:11:19] a name and a

[19:11:20] flag. What of the people, Sakonic?

[19:11:24] They are small stitches in the tapestry

[19:11:28] of legacy. Your fixation on them blinds

[19:11:32] you to the greater

[19:11:34] whole. Darkness rises

[19:11:38] everywhere. The storm must be shaped and

[19:11:42] the heart of the empire

[19:11:46] preserved. Sacrifice is necessary to the

[19:11:50] abyss. With you and your

[19:11:54] sacrifice, I'm going.

[19:11:58] You are bound to the right of

[19:12:01] unwarming. You cannot refuse it now.

[19:12:06] Huh? I thought you needed me.

[19:12:12] We have you already.

[19:12:23] Power uncontrolled is the doom of the

[19:12:27] soul.

[19:12:33] Litara,

[19:12:37] I have to help her and the town.

[19:12:52] Mortal, can you hear me?

[19:12:55] Tyel. Tyel, I need to reach them. Seek

[19:13:00] the light still.

[19:13:02] Do not

[19:13:11] despair for far more than you will

[19:13:18] suffer. The fight for virtue leads to

[19:13:22] casualties.

[19:13:28] All who deliver justice must be subject

[19:13:31] to it.

[19:13:38] Nara, are you here? I need your help.

[19:13:43] Accept the right. Your selfishness will

[19:13:48] drown the aisles on you.

[19:13:56] Those you race to save are already lost

[19:14:00] to

[19:14:06] you. She is bound. She will carry the

[19:14:10] mark forever.

[19:14:18] I I can hear them

[19:14:20] all. A thousand

[19:14:24] generations. So many voices. They need

[19:14:26] me. Need me here. The storm is rising.

[19:14:30] Don't surrender to this. It's time to

[19:14:38] fight. You can still help your people.

[19:14:40] We owe it to them. Just follow me.

[19:14:43] Please. I I can. I will.

[19:14:51] Latara, you give in to

[19:14:55] whims. You will realize this. The broken

[19:14:59] soul cannot truly be

[19:15:03] fixed. Only bandaged.

[19:15:19] You interrupted the

[19:15:20] right. Are you still yourself?

[19:15:25] The mark burns, but the right didn't

[19:15:27] finish thanks to you. I should be well

[19:15:30] enough to

[19:15:31] sail the boat. I'll get us back to Ewan

[19:15:34] Tall.

[19:15:39] [Music]

[19:16:17] No. No, no.

[19:16:23] Over there.

[19:16:27] He's not breathing. Let's split up and

[19:16:29] find any survivors we can. Understood.

[19:16:37] Two more.

[19:16:46] [Music]

[19:17:12] Guan grandfather.

[19:17:15] Uh, where are you?

[19:17:18] No, don't. What? Guan, it's just me.

[19:17:23] What are you talking about?

[19:17:25] That monster. It has your

[19:17:29] face. It killed so many. It I'll stop

[19:17:34] it. Did you see where it went? It kept

[19:17:37] hitting

[19:17:38] grandfather. Dragged him up the hill. He

[19:17:41] told me to hunt. He He told me, "I'm

[19:17:45] sorry, Guan. I'll make this right. I

[19:17:49] will."

[19:17:51] Guan,

[19:17:56] by no one's grace you're alive, the

[19:17:59] Tara, I didn't want this to happen,

[19:18:02] but it's because of me. No, not just

[19:18:06] you. We are all guilty. How does safe?

[19:18:11] I'll watch over Guam. Do you know how to

[19:18:13] kill that thing? I'll figure something

[19:18:15] out. Gu, stay close to me.

[19:18:27] I can feel its evil.

[19:18:31] [Music]

[19:18:53] There is a cost to your purity. It is

[19:18:57] you know

[19:19:01] well Heat. Heat.

[19:19:27] You fight as though you are fearless,

[19:19:30] but doubt is fear.

[19:19:50] Heat. Heat.

[19:20:14] You cannot destroy me without your

[19:20:16] death.

[19:20:31] And terror stage your hand.

[19:21:00] Mortals are

[19:21:02] imperfect. Justice is unnatural to them.

[19:21:07] But when they discover it, they are

[19:21:11] uplifted. They are not drawn to stand

[19:21:14] against evil. They choose. It is that

[19:21:18] choice which makes them worthy.

[19:21:24] You're

[19:21:25] alive. Look terrible, but you slew it.

[19:21:30] Or at least it's gone. The sword.

[19:21:35] Eldrun. It worked. How are the others?

[19:21:39] Everyone who's alive is alive because of

[19:21:41] you.

[19:21:43] They they asked to see you. All

[19:21:47] right, lead on.

[19:21:51] Yes, things are clearer now.

[19:21:56] I vouched for

[19:21:57] you, but they don't all agree.

[19:22:03] Why should they? If I hadn't come here,

[19:22:23] have we not suffered enough?

[19:22:28] Did you get what you came for? Is your

[19:22:31] soul pure at last, stranger? I did.

[19:22:36] Bars, I am truly sorry. I came here to

[19:22:40] stop evil like this from coming to

[19:22:43] pass. Whatever your judgment, I'll

[19:22:46] accept it. I know you meant us no

[19:22:50] harm. You did not ask for your

[19:22:53] affliction.

[19:22:55] But we have nothing now. There are those

[19:22:59] who want you to suffer atonement.

[19:23:03] But I believe you have suffered

[19:23:07] enough. And I believe your cause is

[19:23:11] just, even if it is a justice we will

[19:23:14] never see.

[19:23:16] Thus, I banish you from our

[19:23:20] home. Never let those who died see your

[19:23:23] reflection in the

[19:23:25] waters. Never set foot on Iwan Tal

[19:23:29] again. Go.

[19:23:31] We all, how are you?

[19:23:33] alive. The best thing I can do for them

[19:23:36] now is to defeat

[19:23:38] Diablo. To make this matter, I've got an

[19:23:41] orman to help you make your way back.

[19:23:43] Let me take you to the docks.

[19:23:51] What will you do now?

[19:23:58] I spurned the right. I can't go back to

[19:24:02] Pelgane. I'll stay here and help them

[19:24:06] rebuild. If Sakarnic comes looking for

[19:24:09] me, I'll take these people into exile.

[19:24:13] Kayan will get you to a larger craft and

[19:24:16] on toward the mainland. Thank you for

[19:24:19] your trust. I could say the

[19:24:21] same. I owe you my life and more.

[19:24:25] When your journey's done, the people

[19:24:28] here will understand what they owe to

[19:24:31] you. No matter how much it hurts.

[19:24:35] Once you leave these shores, don't

[19:24:37] expect to come back. Even if I

[19:24:41] could, I have work to do. Hope you get

[19:24:44] your demon.

[19:24:47] I won't tell you to be safe.

[19:24:53] Win your fight, my friend.

[19:25:25] I imagine that if you were still a

[19:25:27] danger, you wouldn't have walked through

[19:25:29] that door. Am I mistaken? It's good to

[19:25:33] see you, too. We've spoken to Commander

[19:25:35] Ka. I assured her that there would be no

[19:25:39] more unexpected incidents if you

[19:25:41] returned.

[19:25:42] Justinian would rather not hear of any

[19:25:44] chaos in his city. So Chelsea's making

[19:25:47] weapons for the knights. I'm to advise

[19:25:49] the court majors. Your involvement in

[19:25:52] what happened is not a matter of record,

[19:25:55] though you may hear occasional

[19:25:57] whispers. We're free to remain here and

[19:26:01] keep up the fight. Are you all right?

[19:26:04] Thank you for

[19:26:05] asking. I'm working through it. Good.

[19:26:09] We're glad you're back safe. I know you

[19:26:12] have a lot to carry. And what happened?

[19:26:17] It wasn't you. Diablo has done worse

[19:26:20] than anything we've been party to and

[19:26:23] will do worse still. Our

[19:26:26] preparations, most of them will fail.

[19:26:29] That is the way of this battle. We

[19:26:31] cannot dwell on mistakes or

[19:26:33] pleasantries. The sanctuary can afford

[19:26:35] none of it. Enough about the price.

[19:26:39] Show us what you have won. Draw Eldrin

[19:26:43] forth without

[19:26:46] [Music]

[19:26:59] fear.

[19:27:02] Yes. Diablo will not escape justice. The

[19:27:08] helicquary has been suspiciously quiet.

[19:27:10] No sign of Diablo's movements or the

[19:27:12] bride of hell. If I hear anything, I'll

[19:27:15] tell you right away. I doubt it will be

[19:27:17] long now. We must gather any allies we

[19:27:21] can to challenge the Lord of Terror. But

[19:27:25] preparations can wait until after you've

[19:27:28] rested. For on your shoulders, we lay

[19:27:31] all our

[19:27:32] hopes with good reason.

[19:27:36] [Music]

[19:27:55] ain't no cutting in line. Ah, wait. This

[19:27:58] one's an adventure. What's going on

[19:28:00] here? Refugees been streaming in from

[19:28:02] all over. sometimes with nothing but the

[19:28:04] clothes on their backs. A lot of strange

[19:28:07] out there these days. Yeah. Anyone

[19:28:09] coming in gets screened for weapons,

[19:28:11] disease, and the like. Anyways, get a

[19:28:13] move on. I've got quotas to fill. Form

[19:28:16] an orderly line or no one's going

[19:28:18] anywhere.

[19:28:30] [Music]

[19:28:41] Ah, just in the nick of time. I was

[19:28:44] worried I'd have to start without you,

[19:28:48] Reik Chie.

[19:28:51] Indeed, I've sensed utilization of a

[19:28:54] world stone shard on a level I have

[19:28:57] never felt before.

[19:29:01] Suffice it to say, Diablo walked

[19:29:04] sanctuary once more, and he has big

[19:29:07] plans for our world. Is that

[19:29:09] advisable? The last time we used the

[19:29:12] anchor, the bride of hell was able to

[19:29:13] detect us, even from within the astral.

[19:29:17] Before your soul was tinged with

[19:29:20] darkness, you purified it. Even if the

[19:29:23] shards had muddled its very nature, I

[19:29:26] doubt we'd be detected among so much

[19:29:28] world stone energy. Still, it's a risk

[19:29:32] we must take. Come.

[19:29:52] [Music]

[19:30:14] At the crown of the world lies a place

[19:30:17] where only the desperate and the lost

[19:30:20] dared to

[19:30:22] dwell. A barren land.

[19:30:25] Already Diablo's influence is twisting

[19:30:28] sanctuary.

[19:30:29] There is no time to waste. Come, let's

[19:30:33] see what we can learn. Grizzly totems

[19:30:36] and mountains of

[19:30:39] bone. Terror has already claimed this

[19:30:42] place. What is that?

[19:30:47] Come, my

[19:30:51] signates. Our master bids us witness the

[19:30:54] dawn of a new age.

[19:30:58] The weapon is ready.

[19:31:01] [Music]

[19:31:04] Soon this world will be reforged by

[19:31:06] terror.

[19:31:14] Barathe, what has he done to you? This

[19:31:18] does not bode well. Veratheiel still

[19:31:22] lives. What is this weapon? And what

[19:31:27] could Diablo want with a fallen

[19:31:29] angel? I cannot

[19:31:43] [Music]

[19:31:58] Diablo's abominations grow in number,

[19:32:01] and the legions of hell pour into this

[19:32:05] realm. Justice is on our side. Yet, I

[19:32:09] fear we will need an army of our own

[19:32:12] just to reach him. Whatever the purpose

[19:32:15] of that monolith, our mission remains

[19:32:17] the same. We have El Druin, and we

[19:32:21] should use it.

[19:32:23] Are you listening to me? Wait, let me

[19:32:26] guess. A word from your angel. Tyial

[19:32:30] says we need an army. And I'm inclined

[19:32:33] to agree. Yes, it's a good point. One I

[19:32:38] seem to remember making not long ago.

[19:32:41] And as luck would happen, I know where

[19:32:44] we might find one. The immortals of West

[19:32:48] March. Legend has it their very purpose

[19:32:51] is to defend sanctuary from the legions

[19:32:53] of the burning hells. I think it's time

[19:32:56] we informed them of Diablo's return and

[19:32:59] reminded them of their charge. I'll

[19:33:02] speak with them. And while I'm at it,

[19:33:06] perhaps I'll reach out to some old

[19:33:08] friends. Good. You've helped many on

[19:33:10] your journey. If ever there was a time

[19:33:13] to have the favor returned, it would be

[19:33:16] now.

[19:33:17] While you're gone, the three of us will

[19:33:20] do what we can to prepare for the battle

[19:33:23] ahead.

[19:33:35] [Music]

[19:33:37] The immortals are gathering in

[19:33:39] force. Could they already know? Make it

[19:33:42] quick, adventurer. We ship out at first

[19:33:45] light. I come with an urgent warning.

[19:33:48] Far, far to the north lies a barren land

[19:33:52] where the Lord of Terror, Diablo

[19:33:54] himself, is building an

[19:33:56] army. If we do not stop him, it will

[19:33:59] spell the doom of our world. A prime

[19:34:04] evil. Our mages defined a demonic threat

[19:34:07] amassing in the north. But

[19:34:09] this well, it changes little. We're

[19:34:13] mobilizing the full force of our navy.

[19:34:15] Every ship and every hand we can spare.

[19:34:18] I'd like to be aboard one of those ships

[19:34:21] along with any allies I can muster. I

[19:34:25] have in my possession the only weapon I

[19:34:27] know can vanquish Diablo. The angelic

[19:34:30] blade. Eldru. An angelic

[19:34:33] blade. We'll take any advantage we can

[19:34:36] get. I'm Commander Nimoth, a captain on

[19:34:39] this expedition. I have a few ships in

[19:34:42] my employ. If you can promise your aid,

[19:34:45] I'll hold them in harbor as long as I

[19:34:47] can.

[19:34:49] [Music]

[19:35:02] I'll return as soon as I am able. Go

[19:35:05] forth and seek out any that will heed

[19:35:07] the call of justice. Diablo must not

[19:35:10] take this realm

[19:35:17] uncontested. I have urgent information

[19:35:20] for the shadow elders. I must speak with

[19:35:23] them.

[19:35:29] All I'm saying is with the immortals on

[19:35:31] holiday, the vault will be wide open.

[19:35:35] Forget their trinkets. Let's sabotage

[19:35:37] their ships. We'll never have a better

[19:35:39] opportunity to thin their numbers. And

[19:35:42] what if our actions tip the scales in

[19:35:45] the favor of our mutual enemy? Pardon

[19:35:48] the interruption, but I have urgent

[19:35:52] news. What you've heard is true. The

[19:35:55] Lord of Terror has returned. He has an

[19:35:58] army, and if he is not stopped, your

[19:36:01] precious cycle will be meaningless. The

[19:36:04] shadows and immortals must set aside

[19:36:06] past differences.

[19:36:08] and unite in defense of our world. A

[19:36:13] prime. Are you sure? Safeguarding

[19:36:16] Sanctuary from the burning hells is our

[19:36:18] first and greatest

[19:36:21] priority. We must help. Even if it means

[19:36:24] fighting beside the immortals. The

[19:36:27] coming battle will test immortal and

[19:36:29] shadow alike. Let us prove that we are

[19:36:33] worthy to take their place.

[19:36:37] You want a few extra blades for your

[19:36:39] war? Fine. Killing demons is our

[19:36:42] calling. But I won't risk our entire

[19:36:44] order just for the immortals to claim

[19:36:46] the glory. Besides, someone's got to

[19:36:49] pick up the pieces when they fail.

[19:36:54] Listen, I'm not saying we shouldn't help

[19:36:56] out with killing demons and all, but we

[19:36:59] can still stand to profit a little,

[19:37:01] can't we? If they leave their vault

[19:37:04] unprotected, it would be irresponsible

[19:37:06] of us not to help ourselves, mouths to

[19:37:09] feed, and blades to

[19:37:13] wet. Potent

[19:37:16] words. I hesitate to deny the immortals

[19:37:19] an opportunity to fail on their own

[19:37:22] merit, but I agree that our greatest

[19:37:26] duty is to

[19:37:27] sanctuary. I will support your cause.

[19:37:31] [Music]

[19:37:34] That went more smoothly than

[19:37:37] expected. The immortals will not face

[19:37:40] Diablo's armies

[19:37:42] [Music]

[19:37:46] alone. A bit bright.

[19:38:04] [Music]

[19:38:06] So many

[19:38:07] wounded. What's happened here?

[19:38:11] [Music]

[19:38:33] Thank you for the coin, friend.

[19:38:48] Adventure, we could use a hand over

[19:38:50] here. Hold strong. Let no demon through.

[19:38:56] A welcome face. Put out those flames

[19:38:59] before they spread, won't you?

[19:39:12] Never a dull moment, is there? The

[19:39:14] fallen have plagued these lands for

[19:39:16] quite some time, but their attacks are

[19:39:19] rarely. Diablo has returned and he's

[19:39:22] raising an army in a land far far to the

[19:39:25] north. I have found others that will

[19:39:27] stand against his

[19:39:29] legions. I came here hoping to count the

[19:39:31] sisterhood of the sightless eye among

[19:39:33] our ranks.

[19:39:35] Diablo.

[19:39:37] Truly, I must speak with Aara first. But

[19:39:40] I promise you this. The sisterhood will

[19:39:44] not stand idly by while evil walks

[19:39:47] sanctuary. You will have our aid. Thank

[19:39:51] you,

[19:39:52] Kasha. There are ships waiting in West

[19:39:54] March Port for any who will join us.

[19:40:01] Death is quite the teacher.

[19:40:11] What?

[19:40:16] [Music]

[19:40:54] Heat. Heat.

[19:40:55] [Music]

[19:41:19] Give it more time.

[19:41:32] [Music]

[19:41:45] Ready the course.

[19:42:02] [Music]

[19:42:11] Power the end.

[19:42:26] Your corpses are mine.

[19:42:36] [Music]

[19:43:05] Greetings, Elder. What brings you up the

[19:43:08] mountain? Greetings. I'm looking for

[19:43:11] Shur. Do you know where I might find

[19:43:14] him? Shura is off on an urgent errand,

[19:43:18] but brother Mosca speaks for the

[19:43:20] survivors of the sanctity.

[19:43:26] [Music]

[19:43:35] What is this unnatural

[19:43:38] darkness differently? Return to whatever

[19:43:41] got for you.

[19:43:57] You call yourself a warrior.

[19:44:11] Your assistance is most appreciate. I

[19:44:14] came here hoping to ask a favor of Shur.

[19:44:17] The Lord of Terror has returned to

[19:44:20] Sanctuary. This explains much. Brother

[19:44:23] Shur has gone to investigate the source

[19:44:25] of this threat. But where the black

[19:44:27] mists conjured nightmares made flesh.

[19:44:31] These seem to adult the mind with

[19:44:33] madness.

[19:44:34] It is clear to me now. Then aid me. Help

[19:44:39] me slay Diablo and banish his influence

[19:44:42] from this world for good.

[19:44:45] We sail from West March. We are not so

[19:44:47] many as we once were. But I will rally

[19:44:51] to your banner any among us ready to

[19:44:53] give their lives to banish the darkness.

[19:45:00] Death is quite the teacher.

[19:45:04] [Music]

[19:45:07] Kill.

[19:45:26] [Music]

[19:45:52] Hello there. I had hoped to set eyes on

[19:45:55] you again, but you have come at an

[19:45:57] inopportune time.

[19:45:59] A dark and terrible fog has set upon

[19:46:03] these lands. It fills the mind with

[19:46:06] visions of madness. In a way, that's why

[19:46:09] I've

[19:46:10] come. The demon lord Diablo has returned

[19:46:13] to claim

[19:46:14] Sanctuary. I seek allies for the battle

[19:46:17] against him. Will the warriors of the

[19:46:20] shadow wolf tribe fight by my side? I

[19:46:23] see. Chief Kent's first priority is his

[19:46:27] people. If he knew they were safe, he

[19:46:30] would surely aid you. This potion should

[19:46:33] protect us against the mists. Bring it

[19:46:36] to him, and it may allay his fears.

[19:46:45] Well met, my friend. Your visit comes as

[19:46:48] a pleasant

[19:46:49] surprise. Is that what I think it is?

[19:46:53] This potion is from Taci. I'm told it

[19:46:57] should ease your people's symptoms.

[19:47:01] Ancients be praised. Any respit from

[19:47:03] these cursed mists is most welcome. But

[19:47:07] you haven't come all this way just to

[19:47:08] deliver a

[19:47:11] potion. I come bearing difficult news. A

[19:47:15] world stone shard has fallen into the

[19:47:17] hands of the prime evil

[19:47:20] Diablo. He would use it to lay claim to

[19:47:22] our world.

[19:47:24] I mean to stop him. And I would be

[19:47:27] honored if your people fought by my

[19:47:29] side. No, not again. My people's

[19:47:34] sacrifice cannot be for nothing. Those

[19:47:36] of us fit to fight will join you. We

[19:47:39] will kill Diablo and shatter his bones

[19:47:42] like his brother shattered our mountain.

[19:47:44] We sail from West March.

[19:47:47] Join us when you can.

[19:48:07] Adventurer, lend us a hand. Will you

[19:48:09] keep fighting? We're driving him back.

[19:48:21] Thank you for your help. You've given

[19:48:23] stall a brief

[19:48:25] restbite. These shard, as you've called

[19:48:28] them, have grown more coordinated of

[19:48:30] late. That may be because they serve a

[19:48:33] new master. Diablo, lord of terror, has

[19:48:36] returned to sanctuary with the power of

[19:48:39] the world stone at his

[19:48:41] command. The same power that has warped

[19:48:44] these wretched souls.

[19:48:47] I'm beginning to think you didn't come

[19:48:48] here to help us out of the goodness of

[19:48:50] your heart.

[19:48:54] I'm afraid not. I'm gathering allies to

[19:48:57] face Diablo's

[19:48:59] legions. I have a ship in West

[19:49:01] March. Will you help us?

[19:49:05] Absolutely not. Forgive my bluntness. I

[19:49:08] haven't forgotten what I owe you. But

[19:49:10] we've got our hands full just protecting

[19:49:12] what's ours. The Shardborn may be many,

[19:49:15] but they are not a cunning foe. Give

[19:49:17] them a few elite warriors, Jeffrey. We

[19:49:19] can spare it. They'll do far more facing

[19:49:22] down the armies of hell than on this

[19:49:24] battlefield. All right. All right. You

[19:49:26] win, adventurer. But this makes us even.

[19:49:29] Now go before I change my mind.

[19:49:33] All right, everyone. Back to your posts.

[19:49:41] Yes, things are clearer now.

[19:50:09] Ah, there you are. I was beginning to

[19:50:12] think we'd have to leave without

[19:50:15] [Music]

[19:50:19] you. Are you ready to set

[19:50:22] sail? I'm

[19:50:25] ready. We've got a long journey ahead of

[19:50:28] us. By the time we arrive, our camp

[19:50:31] should be well

[19:50:33] established. I hope you and that sword

[19:50:36] of yours are ready. There's a very good

[19:50:39] chance this may be a one-way trip.

[19:50:43] [Music]

[19:51:17] costume chassis that and to drop off a

[19:51:21] few crates of equipment. I've been

[19:51:23] sweating over a heart.

[19:51:26] It's been a long and difficult journey,

[19:51:29] my friend. I won't bother reminding you

[19:51:32] what's at stake. No one else can wield

[19:51:35] El Druin, nor vanquish

[19:51:38] Diablo. You must

[19:51:41] succeed, no matter that. As for me, I

[19:51:44] suppose someone must stay and prepare

[19:51:46] for the worst case. Diablo will not take

[19:51:49] this world without a fight.

[19:51:51] Listen, I know I don't say this enough,

[19:51:54] but thank you. I'll stop,

[19:51:58] Diablo. No matter what it

[19:52:04] takes. If there's anyone you'd like to

[19:52:07] reach out to, favors to cash in or

[19:52:09] affairs you need settled, I have a man

[19:52:12] over there with some stationery. He'll

[19:52:15] see your message

[19:52:16] delivered. Some friends of yours are

[19:52:18] waiting by the ship. If you care to

[19:52:21] speak to them, I'll be on the ship. Let

[19:52:24] me know as soon as you're ready to set

[19:52:29] sail. The sightless eye will weed out

[19:52:32] evil

[19:52:36] [Music]

[19:52:43] way. I will fight and if needs be die to

[19:52:48] defend this world. Good will triumph.

[19:52:55] The heart of the mountain cannot remain

[19:52:57] in the hands of demons. The ancients cry

[19:53:00] out for justice.

[19:53:19] [Music]

[19:53:21] After months at sea, the battle ahead

[19:53:25] almost doesn't feel real. Oh, my

[19:53:28] helmsman assures me we should catch

[19:53:30] sight of land any day

[19:53:32] [Music]

[19:53:37] now. If you want to check in on your

[19:53:39] friends, now would be a good time.

[19:53:43] My men and I will do whatever it takes

[19:53:45] to clear you a path to Diablo. This war

[19:53:49] is everything we've been training

[19:53:52] for.

[19:53:54] Still, there's no telling what we'll

[19:53:57] encounter when we make land. Don't worry

[19:54:00] about me. I've slain a demon or two in

[19:54:02] my time.

[19:54:13] That sound came from the bow. Better

[19:54:16] check it out.

[19:54:18] [Music]

[19:54:21] We've got

[19:54:27] cultists to arms.

[19:54:46] Turn home. Do the bloody

[19:54:55] [ __ ] Get away from me. It's crawling in

[19:54:59] my skin.

[19:55:10] Fools. This is terror's domain.

[19:55:27] Rise, mortal. There is much work to be

[19:55:30] done.

[19:55:32] Tear you, what

[19:55:35] happened? Last thing I remember, the

[19:55:38] ship was choked in darkness and

[19:55:41] then visions of terror. Your ship lies

[19:55:46] broken upon the rocks. An ill portent

[19:55:49] for the battle raging across these

[19:55:51] lands. Yet there must be survivors. The

[19:55:54] guardians of mankind have proven more

[19:55:57] resilient than heaven or hell could ever

[19:56:01] have

[19:56:02] predicted. Come, let us rally our allies

[19:56:06] for the task ahead.

[19:56:16] Commander, are you all right? Can you

[19:56:22] stand?

[19:56:24] Where? Where are

[19:56:27] we? This isn't where we were meant to

[19:56:30] make

[19:56:33] land. We can't afford to stick around

[19:56:36] long. We need to reunite with our main

[19:56:39] force and determine the state of the war

[19:56:43] effort. These men aren't going anywhere

[19:56:46] under their own power.

[19:56:48] When we get to camp, I'll send someone

[19:56:50] to come and collect the

[19:56:55] survivors. Come along. We can't be that

[19:56:58] far off course. The camp should be

[19:57:00] somewhere east of

[19:57:05] here. Those creatures once an end.

[19:57:11] [Music]

[19:57:41] die. Die.

[19:57:45] [Music]

[19:58:08] Fear not to the end.

[19:58:18] [Music]

[19:58:27] Heat. Heat.

[19:59:01] Not again. The voices. Make them

[19:59:06] stop. I won't listen.

[19:59:11] Mortal wield Eldru. Drive back the

[19:59:16] darkness. The light of justice is your

[19:59:18] shield.

[19:59:20] There

[19:59:21] were so many

[19:59:24] voices crying out for help and blaming

[19:59:29] me. And then a warmth rising up to

[19:59:33] banish the

[19:59:35] darkness. You spoke the truth. That

[19:59:38] sword of yours really did come from the

[19:59:42] heavens. We can use it to cut through

[19:59:45] this cursed mist.

[20:00:09] That abomination was one of

[20:00:12] ours. He deserves a clean death.

[20:00:16] Ah, there. That portal is the source of

[20:00:20] the

[20:00:23] darkness. My magic is useless against

[20:00:31] [Music]

[20:00:39] it. The darkness is gone. This El Druan

[20:00:42] of yours may just turn the tides of this

[20:00:46] war.

[20:00:47] [Music]

[20:01:12] That ability

[20:01:16] must stay the course. We must be getting

[20:01:20] close. What a strange place. This is

[20:01:23] nearly devoid of all life. Even before

[20:01:27] Diablo's influence, a blank spot upon

[20:01:30] the canvas of creation.

[20:01:33] I can only imagine it was created with

[20:01:36] some purpose in mind. Perhaps to conceal

[20:01:40] something did not wish mortals to ever

[20:01:55] discover there to the southeast. I see

[20:01:59] the gates. I am Nimoth, commander of the

[20:02:02] Claw Viper Battalion. I must speak with

[20:02:04] whoever's in charge. The general's been

[20:02:07] waiting for you. Go ahead, Commander.

[20:02:13] [Music]

[20:02:20] Commander, I feared your battalion lost.

[20:02:24] We very nearly were. Our ship was

[20:02:27] besieged before we could make port.

[20:02:30] Most of my men are either scattered. Our

[20:02:33] armies haven't fared much better in your

[20:02:35] absence, I'm afraid. Things went well at

[20:02:38] first. We pressed inland and set up

[20:02:40] several outposts. Even managed to

[20:02:42] destroy some of their siege engines.

[20:02:45] This adventurer possesses an angelic

[20:02:47] blade capable of sealing those infernal

[20:02:50] portals and burning. I am at your

[20:02:52] service. I won't rest until Diablo is

[20:02:56] dead and his legions are banished from

[20:02:58] our world. This is incredible news. I'll

[20:03:02] devise a new battle plan. In the

[20:03:06] meantime, Jeffrey sends his regards. He

[20:03:10] also promised a tank of me in a day's

[20:03:12] holiday for every demon head menop off.

[20:03:15] We're all quite motivated.

[20:03:18] [Music]

[20:03:19] You're right, my friend. This place is

[20:03:22] the source of the foul mist plaguing our

[20:03:25] tribe. Let us destroy Diablo and purge

[20:03:29] this blight all at once. The mountain

[20:03:32] will be avenged.

[20:03:34] [Music]

[20:03:41] I've never traveled so far from

[20:03:43] home. But we must root out evil wherever

[20:03:46] it hides. We do this together,

[20:03:49] adventurer.

[20:03:50] We won't rest so long as evil draws

[20:03:53] breath.

[20:03:56] It is strange fighting alongside

[20:03:59] immortals, but this war is much too

[20:04:02] important to lose. Should the immortals

[20:04:06] falter, we will take their place and

[20:04:09] finish the job.

[20:04:28] I received your letter, friend. I've

[20:04:30] come to fight the burning hells at your

[20:04:32] side. Do not look so modest. My people

[20:04:35] owe you a great debt. And demons at the

[20:04:39] east

[20:04:42] gate.

[20:04:50] [Music]

[20:05:06] His armies are endless. Can you say the

[20:05:27] same? Let us plan our next action.

[20:05:32] Your struggle is pointless. Terror

[20:05:35] claims all.

[20:05:45] We stand united again.

[20:05:49] [Music]

[20:05:56] Don't you see? Even death is no escape

[20:06:00] from Diablo's grasp.

[20:06:10] Get

[20:06:21] [Applause]

[20:06:30] back.

[20:06:32] [Music]

[20:06:37] His armies are endless. Can you say the

[20:06:57] same threat has ended for now? Let us

[20:07:00] plan our next action.

[20:07:02] [Music]

[20:07:22] I won't be kept on the defensive. It's

[20:07:25] time to take the fight to the enemy.

[20:07:27] You're right, Adventurer. And with your

[20:07:30] help,

[20:07:31] I primary camp is

[20:07:37] here. To the east is our forward

[20:07:41] outpost, a choke point overlooking a

[20:07:43] demonic monolith. We don't know what it

[20:07:46] is, but it is heavily protected. There

[20:07:50] are two hellish portals here and here.

[20:07:54] They emanate a toxic mist that floods

[20:07:57] the mind with visions of your mission is

[20:07:59] to use the blade of yours to destroy the

[20:08:01] portals and secure our army's advance.

[20:08:04] When the path is clear, you're to set

[20:08:07] off a signal flare at each of the marked

[20:08:09] locations. On your signal, I will

[20:08:11] dispatch reinforcements to fortify your

[20:08:13] position and purge the surrounding areas

[20:08:16] of Diablo's servants. our forces.

[20:08:21] I won't be kept

[20:08:23] I will remain behind and take are you go

[20:08:28] Sha Jin

[20:08:43] [Music]

[20:08:48] The great cycle continues

[20:09:03] onward. Darkness encroaches.

[20:09:15] The enemy blocks our way to the portal.

[20:09:18] Let us clear this

[20:09:22] obstacle. Death is

[20:09:37] inevitable. Nothing.

[20:09:40] The eye is gone.

[20:09:44] [Music]

[20:09:52] One portal down. Onto the

[20:09:54] [Music]

[20:10:05] next.

[20:10:26] These shorn are unlike any.

[20:10:33] We should follow the trail.

[20:10:50] Heat. Heat.

[20:11:14] What should I do with

[20:11:21] them? Drown them in blood.

[20:11:32] [Music]

[20:11:40] die. Oh, Rex.

[20:12:00] You could not escape another

[20:12:10] torment. Do what you ask.

[20:12:19] and and suffer the consequences.

[20:12:25] I won't

[20:12:27] fail. I won't

[20:12:56] No, I I don't hear your

[20:13:00] voice. Where are

[20:13:03] you? You promised I'd be strong.

[20:13:10] You promised.

[20:13:12] [Music]

[20:13:15] Quickly use El Druid.

[20:13:19] Forgive

[20:13:22] [Music]

[20:13:29] me. Your soft human

[20:13:33] heart makes you weak.

[20:13:37] You should not have hesitated.

[20:13:41] [Music]

[20:13:49] I

[20:13:52] excite at the outpost on your ship.

[20:14:04] The second portal is sealed.

[20:14:09] The second portal is

[20:14:13] Once we secure the outpost, our forces

[20:14:15] will have a direct path to the hut.

[20:14:21] [Music]

[20:14:38] The outpost should be just ahead.

[20:14:44] Something is wrong.

[20:14:46] [Music]

[20:15:01] They're all

[20:15:04] dead. We should not jump to conclusions.

[20:15:07] Let us investigate the area.

[20:15:13] [Music]

[20:15:23] The monolith we saw through the astral

[20:15:25] anchor. What role does it serve in

[20:15:28] Diablo's

[20:15:32] plan? There's a map with something

[20:15:35] marked on

[20:15:38] it. It seems they believed this pyramid

[20:15:42] was the source of the darkness.

[20:15:45] It seems like these soldiers were unable

[20:15:47] to flee from the darkness. They went

[20:15:50] mad. I found a map with a location

[20:15:53] marked on it. A place

[20:16:08] [Music]

[20:16:18] By all that is

[20:16:24] holy. By all that is they had nowhere to

[20:16:27] flee the

[20:16:29] darkness. They did this to each other.

[20:16:32] The monolith to the north. Whatever it

[20:16:35] is, it's I understand.

[20:16:38] [Music]

[20:16:56] These siege weapons claimed many lives.

[20:16:59] It is good to see them broken.

[20:17:04] [Music]

[20:17:08] The balance is preserved.

[20:17:32] [Music]

[20:17:39] The darkness is thickest here. This must

[20:17:42] be the source.

[20:17:56] Let us purge this evil.

[20:18:01] Press onward. We have prepare

[20:18:04] yourselves.

[20:18:07] You are a fool to come here.

[20:18:16] Terror will swallow you whole.

[20:18:32] [Music]

[20:18:43] Our legions are unending.

[20:18:51] Though druids might be loses darkness.

[20:18:56] Surrender to the inevitable.

[20:18:59] Their numbers are too

[20:19:08] great. I must wait.

[20:19:35] There's no other way.

[20:19:43] What the centuries?

[20:19:57] You've done me a

[20:19:59] setback. And at what cost?

[20:20:04] No.

[20:20:10] Join him in

[20:20:13] death.

[20:20:15] Such you pay for

[20:20:29] this.

[20:20:31] [Music]

[20:20:48] Heat.

[20:20:55] [Music]

[20:21:01] Sure. I'm

[20:21:04] sorry. He deserves a proper

[20:21:07] burial, but the mission comes

[20:21:10] first. At least we can take his prayer

[20:21:13] beads. I won't leave them to rot in this

[20:21:16] foul place. Let's go.

[20:21:28] [Music]

[20:21:33] Shur's sacrifice has given us a fighting

[20:21:35] chance.

[20:21:41] [Music]

[20:21:43] Have you succeeded? The darkness is

[20:21:49] Have you succeeded? The dark. Where is

[20:21:51] Shua? The bride opened a portal. The

[20:21:54] demons were endless. He gave his life to

[20:21:57] seal it. I am

[20:21:59] sorry. A great many heroes have died on

[20:22:02] this

[20:22:03] battlefield. Now

[20:22:07] is everyone with

[20:22:11] me. First sanctuary.

[20:22:15] [Music]

[20:22:38] There is no escape.

[20:22:56] I've instructed the men to cover your

[20:22:58] advance to the monolith. We have your

[20:23:01] back. Do not stop under any

[20:23:05] circumstances. Use El Druin to put an

[20:23:08] end to Diablo's schemes. We march on

[20:23:11] your signal. I'm ready.

[20:23:14] Onward. We

[20:23:18] with you.

[20:23:21] Fresh forward.

[20:23:26] [Music]

[20:23:55] Give it more

[20:24:01] time. Fall back. Die.

[20:24:18] This

[20:24:22] world by an angel, a

[20:24:27] demon, a stone.

[20:24:30] No.

[20:24:34] me to

[20:24:53] coward. Where is your sanctuary now?

[20:25:17] [Music]

[20:25:24] Inconceivable to corrupt Angel Song in

[20:25:28] this way.

[20:25:30] Quickly, seek shelter. El Druan can only

[20:25:33] protect us for so

[20:25:40] long. Diablo seeks to unmake this realm

[20:25:43] and supplant it with one of his own

[20:25:45] creation.

[20:25:52] [Music]

[20:26:22] There must be other survivors.

[20:26:24] We've come too far to give up

[20:26:34] now. It's true. Our forces have been

[20:26:39] savaged and Diablo possesses a weapon

[20:26:41] even Druan cannot stop. But Tyel was

[20:26:44] right. As long as we live, there is

[20:26:47] hope.

[20:26:51] Well, then let's find

[20:27:00] him. This place is so

[20:27:03] vast. It's no wonder it was untouched by

[20:27:06] Rap's power.

[20:27:14] [Music]

[20:27:16] Your grave beckons.

[20:27:25] Look, torches.

[20:27:40] [Music]

[20:28:02] Set them free now.

[20:28:15] [Music]

[20:28:22] Still recharge.

[20:28:28] [Music]

[20:28:42] You're alive.

[20:28:48] You'll frighten them.

[20:28:52] They won't talk if they're scared.

[20:29:01] You beat me because of your

[20:29:03] sword. Capturing your friends is the way

[20:29:06] I beat

[20:29:08] you. You see, there are many ways to be

[20:29:12] strong. Now, what to do with all of you?

[20:29:19] Mercy is the best

[20:29:21] way. You can let them go, and I can let

[20:29:25] you go.

[20:29:27] Let me go while he has the stone. We are

[20:29:32] all slaves. There are only two options.

[20:29:37] Redemption or freedom. I could trade you

[20:29:40] for the

[20:29:41] former. But perhaps you're willing to

[20:29:45] make a bargain of your own. I want to be

[20:29:48] free of his

[20:29:50] voice. I want you to kill

[20:29:53] terror. Could you reach him with your

[20:29:55] shattered army?

[20:29:58] And what would you ask in return? I need

[20:30:01] to get close to the crater, to Barathe,

[20:30:04] and break her chains. Only me. No one

[20:30:08] else. To break her chains to break his

[20:30:13] weapon, you mean?

[20:30:15] Or are you truly so selfless?

[20:30:20] Let them

[20:30:24] go. His voice tells us to protect the

[20:30:28] crater. We all hear

[20:30:32] it. Fools rush in to

[20:30:35] die, but you don't have

[20:30:41] [Music]

[20:30:47] to. You can walk through the dark place

[20:30:50] instead. You just need voice to

[20:30:54] see

[20:30:56] where I've held up my end.

[20:31:03] Kasha, are you all right? I'm fine. Just

[20:31:07] shocked those monsters. They could have

[20:31:10] killed us at any time, but they didn't.

[20:31:13] They wanted to barter. We managed to

[20:31:16] make it to safety, but many more didn't.

[20:31:20] Hundreds of people turned to dust in an

[20:31:23] instant. The camp is gone. Kent Zuros.

[20:31:28] Too many dead to

[20:31:30] count. Those of us who managed to find

[20:31:33] shelter have I sense a concealed

[20:31:39] path. Perhaps that grim totem Alrech's

[20:31:42] eye can show us the way.

[20:31:49] A rippling haze. The whole stay here.

[20:31:57] [Music]

[20:32:13] Reinforce. The dark

[20:32:16] place. This has to be.

[20:32:21] What is this place?

[20:32:25] Being grown up means more than fighting.

[20:32:28] It also means protect. What has gotten

[20:32:31] into you?

[20:32:35] Anger and have mercy upon your soul

[20:32:38] because I will not.

[20:32:42] I tried. I really did.

[20:33:00] Stop your struggling, boy.

[20:33:11] You are abandoned by all whom you love.

[20:33:16] But

[20:33:18] terror will never leave your

[20:33:23] [Music]

[20:33:38] side to watch yourself slide toward

[20:33:41] evil.

[20:33:46] It's agony beyond compare.

[20:34:06] [Music]

[20:34:14] I'm too far

[20:34:16] gone. I have spoiled creation.

[20:34:33] We must free her from Diablo's influence

[20:34:37] by any

[20:34:39] means. In his hands, she is too great a

[20:34:43] weapon.

[20:35:03] Mortal again. You aid me with a blade of

[20:35:06] the heavens. I have one. Diablo's power

[20:35:10] coils around. Use

[20:35:13] Eluin. Remove me from creation. Diablo's

[20:35:16] violations must be writed. But there

[20:35:19] have been many. And you cannot be

[20:35:22] everywhere.

[20:35:24] You must decide when to administer

[20:35:26] justice.

[20:35:42] Baratheon, you didn't choose this. I'm

[20:35:46] not going to kill you for it.

[20:35:51] [Music]

[20:36:05] Fight Diablo by my side. If he controls

[20:36:08] you, then I will grant you the release

[20:36:11] you seek. I will aid you so long as I

[20:36:14] After what has been done to her, I doubt

[20:36:17] Vera will ever be welcomed back into the

[20:36:20] Silver City. But so long as a spark of

[20:36:24] her essence remains, one last chance to

[20:36:27] annihilate

[20:36:28] evil. This portal will bring you close

[20:36:31] to Diablo's lair. Use El Druin and end

[20:36:36] Terror's reign.

[20:36:46] My insight grows.

[20:36:57] [Music]

[20:37:31] ahead. A citadel greater even than scar.

[20:37:44] Please, I have given up so

[20:37:55] much. I can still serve. There is

[20:37:58] another stone and there is more I can

[20:38:01] give.

[20:38:15] [Music]

[20:38:26] Does it hold to you the power to mold

[20:38:31] this realm in I enmy.

[20:38:36] Let no evil bar your

[20:38:39] way. Slay these creatures. And this

[20:38:43] darkness is

[20:38:45] unnatural. It forms a solid wall.

[20:38:49] Cleanse the darkness.

[20:39:04] You're a fool to come

[20:39:11] [Music]

[20:39:15] here. You face a fate much worse than

[20:39:20] death.

[20:39:27] Not

[20:39:30] yet. Now,

[20:39:33] Diablo, Lord of

[20:39:35] Terror, now is the time to end his

[20:39:40] schemes. All between will be

[20:39:48] erased. Bear witness to the breath of

[20:39:52] your failure.

[20:39:54] [Music]

[20:40:00] Is this too much? This is familiar

[20:40:05] yet

[20:40:06] wrong. Where is everyone? Hold fast,

[20:40:10] mortal. This is not your

[20:40:13] reality. Only a twisted mirror of it. We

[20:40:17] must find our way back before the same

[20:40:20] fate befalls sanctuary.

[20:40:23] The city ruined and

[20:40:26] buried. He means to taunt me.

[20:40:34] A rift between realms. You must step

[20:40:37] through it.

[20:40:40] A city slaughter frost.

[20:40:43] The power of creation in the palm of his

[20:40:46] hand. And this is what he chooses. This

[20:40:49] is a nightmare. A vision of what we must

[20:40:52] prevent.

[20:40:54] The wind is too strong. The path ahead

[20:40:57] harbors shelter from the storm, but you

[20:41:00] must tread carefully.

[20:41:21] The ice is swallowing everything.

[20:41:55] your

[20:41:58] eyes. There I see a

[20:42:01] rift. This is the dark world, but the

[20:42:05] air is thick with ash.

[20:42:14] No matter what you witness, you must

[20:42:16] stay

[20:42:18] strong. Diablo would put an end to all

[20:42:21] you hold dear. But that time has not yet

[20:42:26] come.

[20:42:31] There was something big in the

[20:42:34] sky. Still want this land.

[20:42:38] This can be remedyed.

[20:43:03] [Music]

[20:43:19] There a rift.

[20:43:25] You have failed them all.

[20:43:29] Do not listen. He is terror manifest.

[20:43:33] But terror can be

[20:43:37] vanquished. He's on

[20:43:49] your Heat.

[20:44:04] Heat. Heat.

[20:44:43] There, the heart of Diablo's

[20:44:47] citadel. Whatever peril awaits us, we

[20:44:50] cannot yield. The fate of all creation

[20:44:54] rests upon our shoulders.

[20:45:25] Adventurer, you do not face terror

[20:45:31] alone. Why resist your heart's

[20:45:37] design? Right. But you have it wrong.

[20:45:42] We're sanctuary kill.

[20:45:46] No, I This world is not devoid of hope.

[20:46:12] Heat. Heat.

[20:47:05] Yeah.

[20:47:16] Heat.

[20:47:34] Terror is all that awaits you.

[20:47:53] Heat. Heat.

[20:48:28] Angels creation itself.

[20:48:40] Yes. Begin a

[20:48:55] new Heat.

[20:49:57] Heat.

[20:50:20] Heat.

[20:51:13] Heat.

[20:52:11] Heat. Heat.

[20:53:09] [Music]

[20:53:12] Heat.

[20:53:35] Heat. Heat.

[20:54:06] My back

[20:54:08] is the world stone

[20:54:12] shard. It's time to end this threat once

[20:54:15] and for all.

[20:54:31] Here are your

[20:54:36] lips. World will serve

[20:54:45] me.

[20:54:59] Heat.

[20:55:29] Heat up

[20:55:54] here.

[20:56:07] Heat.

[20:57:43] Heat.

[20:57:58] Terror is all that awaits

[20:58:10] you.

[20:58:16] Heat. Heat.

[20:58:39] The light cannot fail

[20:58:47] you. My health is

[20:58:55] restored.

[20:59:11] Heat.

[20:59:33] Heat.

[21:00:14] Heat.

[21:00:41] Heat.

[21:02:12] Heat.

[21:02:36] I can't hurt

[21:02:39] you. No drilling is radiating with

[21:02:43] light. There is always

[21:02:58] Quickly draw a ruin and terror.

[21:03:15] Thank you.

[21:03:27] [Music]

[21:03:53] I have no room for such things.

[21:03:59] Thank you, Tyel. I will deliver the

[21:04:03] sword.

[21:04:19] [Music]

[21:04:27] Heat. Heat.

[21:04:39] At

[21:04:40] last, we are

[21:04:43] free. And if you follow

[21:04:46] me, our family

[21:04:49] comedy will never be

[21:04:53] chained again.

[21:05:02] [Music]

[21:05:16] Today we honor all those who lost their

[21:05:19] lives in the battle against evil. The

[21:05:22] victory they secured at incredible cost.

[21:05:32] Shura, I won't forget your

[21:05:34] sacrifice. So much

[21:05:39] death. But I have to believe it was

[21:05:42] worth the

[21:05:43] price. Diablo is gone and sanctuary

[21:05:48] still stands. The long nightmare is

[21:05:51] finally

[21:05:52] over. Thank you for being the one to end

[21:05:55] it.

[21:05:58] I made a promise to a friend and I aim

[21:06:00] to keep it. A pilgrimage of

[21:06:03] sorts. After that, who knows? A hot

[21:06:06] meal, a warm bath, a few weeks on a

[21:06:09] quiet

[21:06:11] beach. I expect I'll find new crises to

[21:06:14] solve.

[21:06:18] [Music]

[21:06:33] This should be as safe as anywhere to

[21:06:35] leave

[21:06:36] Truin. No one in their right mind would

[21:06:38] want to hear.

[21:06:50] Justice belongs to the

[21:06:55] future. Thank

[21:07:07] you.

[21:07:08] Terror has no

[21:07:11] end. And

[21:07:14] yet we have driven it back.

[21:07:18] We sacrificed justice itself for that

[21:07:22] victory. None can say what became of Ty.

[21:07:26] Not even the one who carried

[21:07:28] him. But we're safer for paying this

[21:07:36] cost. We've earned a rest.

[21:07:40] Just don't

[21:07:41] forget, evil will always cover the end

[21:07:46] of our peace.

[21:08:14] You did it. What remains of Diablo's

[21:08:17] legions have fled to the fringes of

[21:08:20] Sanctuary? It's as great a victory as we

[21:08:22] could ever hope for. West March's forces

[21:08:26] have suffered from the deaths of so many

[21:08:29] knights. As have our allies the world

[21:08:32] over. Cain put his trust in.

[21:08:35] True. As for the

[21:08:39] fallen, we must do them the honor of

[21:08:41] living in the world they saved.

[21:08:48] Arrest. The great cycle continues

[21:08:57] onward. Treasures from some distant

[21:08:59] land, no doubt.

[21:09:06] Rare trinkets fresh from Charville. You

[21:09:08] won't find their pier. But you there,

[21:09:11] adventurer. I have just the piece for

[21:09:17] you. You look the discerning sort. I

[21:09:21] have here a totem. Locals say it

[21:09:24] belonged to some sort of protector

[21:09:25] spirit that lives in their forest.

[21:09:28] Surely nothing interest you. Well, maybe

[21:09:31] next turn.

[21:09:32] [Music]

[21:09:36] Looking for something. Are you aware

[21:09:38] these pelts are wriggling with

[21:09:40] parasites?

[21:09:41] What? I just inspected them. Oh, the

[21:09:45] hells are those. Everyone, your

[21:09:48] attention. Come back if you need. It's

[21:09:50] been a while. I should see if Kashun's

[21:09:53] investigation has borne fruit.

[21:09:57] [Music]

[21:10:12] I'm afraid I've learned little more of

[21:10:14] Alrech or the Shardorn. If that's why

[21:10:17] you're here, only rumors. Can't I drop

[21:10:21] in on an old friend for a social call?

[21:10:24] Ha. Perhaps once the world is freed of

[21:10:28] perils. Well, since you brought it up, I

[21:10:32] was

[21:10:33] thinking Alrech could have gone

[21:10:36] anywhere. But despite his monstrous

[21:10:38] appearance, he is a child, isn't he?

[21:10:42] What if he's gone somewhere familiar?

[21:10:44] Somewhere that seemed safe in life.

[21:10:48] A reasonable supposition. What is that?

[21:10:54] [Music]

[21:11:13] Lazarus, you found

[21:11:16] him. How pitiful he looks in death.

[21:11:29] Yes, a splinter of

[21:11:32] creation. You came to me seeking its

[21:11:35] power. But this gift comes with so much

[21:11:39] more. A family that will never abandon

[21:11:42] you.

[21:12:01] Hello, Lazarus. Traitor, heretic,

[21:12:06] servant of terror.

[21:12:11] Your heart breaks. But

[21:12:16] now you answer to

[21:12:19] me in

[21:12:20] life. You were a

[21:12:23] monster in

[21:12:25] death. You will serve our

[21:12:28] family. Today begins your

[21:12:39] atonement. What was that? A vision. What

[21:12:43] did you see? An old foe. A fellow

[21:12:46] necromancer named Lethus bargaining with

[21:12:50] Alrech for a splinter of the world

[21:12:52] stone. She resurrected a man called

[21:12:55] Lazarus. Alrech spoke of his family. But

[21:12:58] what he's up to, I can't begin to

[21:13:01] guess. Yes, that is Warrisome. But there

[21:13:04] is a silver lining. After all these

[21:13:07] weeks, the eye is still. These energies

[21:13:10] are chaotic.

[21:13:13] [Music]

[21:13:32] It seems he's somewhere within the

[21:13:34] Charville Wilds. I can tell you little

[21:13:37] more than that, but there are those that

[21:13:39] might. the coven of the untameable

[21:13:43] wilds. Witches local to the region.

[21:13:48] If I'm bound for Charville, then I've

[21:13:51] got an idea of just how to get there.

[21:13:53] With any luck, we've destroyed the last

[21:13:55] of the world stone shards, but its power

[21:13:57] lives on in these shard. If they are

[21:14:00] consorting with our enemies, as you say,

[21:14:02] then their threat remains as well. Be

[21:14:05] careful.

[21:14:07] [Music]

[21:14:19] Okay.

[21:14:23] [Music]

[21:14:36] I seek passage to the Charville wilds.

[21:14:39] Charville? H I just came from there.

[21:14:42] It's quite a ways on horseback. Hensteig

[21:14:45] and its surrounds haven't been much for

[21:14:47] trade this season with their crop

[21:14:48] failures and rise in bandits. I'll tell

[21:14:51] you what, if you can pay, I'll take you

[21:14:54] as far north as Orup. Let me know when

[21:14:57] you're ready to set out. Let's go.

[21:15:26] This is Orup as far as I can take you.

[21:15:28] Henik's been levying taxes on merchants

[21:15:31] crossing their roads as of late. And uh

[21:15:33] no offense, but your fair isn't worth

[21:15:36] the trouble. I

[21:15:38] understand. Thank you for getting me

[21:15:40] this far. Here's the rest of your

[21:15:42] payment. I'll be in town a while longer

[21:15:45] to settle some business before I head

[21:15:46] back towards West Marge. Would you?

[21:15:51] A traveler. What do you want? If you

[21:15:53] have come to trade, I fear we have

[21:15:56] little to offer. Actually, I'm looking

[21:15:59] for someone called Alberts, who may have

[21:16:02] passed this way. He leads an army of

[21:16:04] creatures I can only describe as part

[21:16:07] human, part monster. Preposterous. If

[21:16:10] instinct can be counted on for one

[21:16:12] thing, it's putting themselves first.

[21:16:16] They never permit. Dead army of theirs

[21:16:18] is the justification for taxing our

[21:16:20] harvests. Even though we have barely

[21:16:22] enough to feed ourselves next, you'll

[21:16:25] tell me.

[21:16:27] Another villager mentioned something

[21:16:29] about miracles taking place. I might

[21:16:33] have heard stories from other

[21:16:35] settlements. A hooded prophet. If the

[21:16:38] stories are true, this prophet's done

[21:16:40] more for Shaveo than any noble in my

[21:16:43] lifetime. Service, not blood, makes a

[21:16:46] leader. We've spent too long laboring

[21:16:48] under the heels of a heartless king.

[21:16:51] Walk safe, friend.

[21:16:56] It's an ill omen, I tell you. The wilds

[21:16:59] are spreading, trying to choke our

[21:17:01] fields. And Stig's hubris is to blame.

[21:17:04] Their loggers have cut the forest too

[21:17:06] deep. I fear for my niece in Pyalk.

[21:17:10] She's not sent word in

[21:17:14] [Music]

[21:17:28] weeks. The woods have been strange

[21:17:32] lately. Hungry eyes in the black of

[21:17:34] night. My cousin says he saw a man

[21:17:38] dragged into the forest, never to be

[21:17:40] seen again. Are the fay mad with us?

[21:17:44] What can you tell me about the fay?

[21:17:47] The fay? They're spirits, tenders of the

[21:17:51] forests. So long as we keep to the old

[21:17:54] ways and take only what we need from the

[21:17:56] wilds, they leave us

[21:17:59] alone. Wait, do you hear that? What is

[21:18:03] that sound?

[21:18:10] The heat

[21:18:22] shring, but all of them aren't

[21:18:29] more of the creatures. Everyone get to

[21:18:51] shelter that

[21:19:00] by the light. What's going on out there?

[21:19:04] Fay are attacking the village. I think

[21:19:06] I've cleared most of them out, but I'm

[21:19:08] going back out there to be sure.

[21:19:11] I'm not sure. Time has not been kind to

[21:19:14] this church. The cellar is the safest

[21:19:16] place, but unfortunately, we've lost the

[21:19:18] key.

[21:19:19] The church is defensible enough,

[21:19:22] especially with your aid, adventurer.

[21:19:25] But we cannot abandon the rest of the

[21:19:27] hamlet. If the fay have made it this far

[21:19:29] into the village, I fear for the others.

[21:19:32] Please help them.

[21:19:35] Fay, more fay.

[21:19:44] It's clear you're a capable warrior.

[21:19:47] finds the other militia members and

[21:19:49] secures the village. I'll look after

[21:19:51] these

[21:20:09] folk. What's the situation? Are the fay

[21:20:12] gone?

[21:20:14] I I've never seen anything like it. They

[21:20:17] flooded in from all sides. We slew as

[21:20:20] many as we could. Then, as quickly as

[21:20:22] they come, they turned round and

[21:20:24] vanished into the wilds. Where did all

[21:20:27] these fay come from?

[21:20:30] Everywhere and nowhere. The wilds around

[21:20:33] us. But they fled to the northeast

[21:20:35] towards the farm. By the light. The

[21:20:39] farmers. Go and check on them. Our

[21:20:41] livelihood depends on it.

[21:20:51] [Music]

[21:20:53] These fields reek of death.

[21:21:17] [Music]

[21:21:20] I don't see any farmers. Perhaps they've

[21:21:22] sought refuge in the house ahead.

[21:21:25] Hello. You're not a monster, are you?

[21:21:31] I'm here to help. Is everyone in there

[21:21:34] all right?

[21:21:36] We are. No. Thanks to grand old Enstig.

[21:21:41] They don't care of it for us. That's why

[21:21:44] we're protecting our homes with farming

[21:21:46] implements instead of proper

[21:21:49] arms. I'm going after the fails

[21:21:52] attacked. Do you know where they went?

[21:21:56] The forest. Isn't that where they're

[21:21:58] supposed to live? Adventurer, look out

[21:22:02] behind you.

[21:22:19] Heat. Heat.

[21:22:40] What has driven these creatures into

[21:22:43] such a

[21:22:44] frenzy? Perhaps if I track the fay to

[21:22:47] their source, I can clear their den and

[21:22:50] protect the village from future attacks.

[21:23:13] surprisingly enjoyable.

[21:23:16] [Music]

[21:23:22] Freedom awaits you in the wild.

[21:23:27] Who's there?

[21:23:31] I must be hearing

[21:23:36] things. What is

[21:23:40] that? What is that?

[21:23:52] Ah, tell you the adventurer from West

[21:23:54] March. You're just in time.

[21:23:57] Welcome to the Untameable Wilds. A grand

[21:24:00] place compared to the bustle and grime

[21:24:02] of West March. Only you've picked a

[21:24:04] shite day for a visit. What do you know

[21:24:07] of the monsters in these woods? A small

[21:24:10] hamlet was nearly overrun.

[21:24:14] The Fay, unruly children of the land.

[21:24:16] You handled them well and swiftly, but

[21:24:19] they weren't due to swarm for years.

[21:24:21] They rarely come out of their halts in

[21:24:23] the deep woods. Even a blind man could

[21:24:26] see something rotten and charl. Look at

[21:24:28] this red cast to the air. The way the

[21:24:31] plan. Now that you're here, I might as

[21:24:33] well try and fix the glade the easy way.

[21:24:35] Keep watch, would you?

[21:24:50] The hard way it is then.

[21:24:53] No look. It's like all Charville's

[21:24:55] fighting me. I can't fathom what's got

[21:24:58] the forest in this state. I came here

[21:25:00] tracking twisted creatures called

[21:25:03] Shardborn. Maybe whatever's happened to

[21:25:05] the forest has something to do with

[21:25:07] them. Their leader left me a talisman.

[21:25:10] One that grants visions. Really? You're

[21:25:13] offering a witch a dried out eyeball?

[21:25:15] Never mind. Plug it down. I'll scry its

[21:25:17] old

[21:25:26] master. My head is spinning. The energy

[21:25:29] of that thing. Purest chaos. I can't

[21:25:32] glean a direction, let alone a face.

[21:25:35] Take it back. I better have a chat with

[21:25:37] my sisters. Tell them what we've seen of

[21:25:39] this place, your shard and the faceworm.

[21:25:42] And maybe you can help me finish a

[21:25:44] ritual I've been preparing nearby. Take

[21:25:47] this charm, dip it in the blood of the

[21:25:49] sacrifices, then bring it to the center

[21:25:52] of the forest. It'll snare any faith

[21:25:54] that come around and then you barter.

[21:25:57] Their freedom for a truce power. Got it.

[21:26:01] I'll finish your ritual.

[21:26:28] [Music]

[21:26:51] Hey, please.

[21:27:10] You're trapped. Leave the people here in

[21:27:12] peace and I'll let you

[21:27:16] go. Damn it. They're breaking free.

[21:27:28] Back to the mock you raid

[21:27:35] things. A foul right. No wonder the fa

[21:27:39] fought back so hard. Beasts choose death

[21:27:41] over servitude every time the questions

[21:27:43] raised. Nissa, the witch who lives here,

[21:27:46] prepared this right. We're trying to

[21:27:49] stop what's happening to this forest to

[21:27:51] push the fay back before they kill

[21:27:53] anyone

[21:27:54] else. Her spell almost worked.

[21:27:58] Witch circles don't know a thing about

[21:28:00] this forest except how to just spoil it.

[21:28:02] If you truly want to help Charville,

[21:28:04] come with us. We'll do right by the

[21:28:06] animals they sacrificed. You want the

[21:28:07] fate to leave? We've got to do this

[21:28:09] proper. When we're done, I'll take you

[21:28:11] to our elers's camp. He'll get you

[21:28:13] sorted.

[21:28:18] Your meat will feed our kin and your

[21:28:20] skin will clothe us. Thank you.

[21:28:40] [Music]

[21:28:46] There is always. That's better. Come on.

[21:28:50] Camp's not far.

[21:29:04] Come

[21:29:08] here. Come.

[21:29:31] Well, look who decided to stop meddling

[21:29:34] and start fixing. Welcome to my camp.

[21:29:38] Take a seat. Share the fire as you like.

[21:29:42] Gladly. What do you know of my business

[21:29:45] here?

[21:29:48] I know you've been working with the

[21:29:50] witches, and yet I'm still letting you

[21:29:54] breathe this nice air. Why? Because you

[21:29:58] handle the swarms and you listen. We

[21:30:01] need that if we want to pull the poison

[21:30:03] out of Charval's

[21:30:05] veins. Nature's a delicate thing. When

[21:30:08] Charval's upset, there's no hiding it.

[21:30:11] Your witch friend might mean well, but

[21:30:15] good intentions don't cleanse what's

[21:30:17] rotten. Everything those witches try to

[21:30:20] help turns the forest one more shade. A

[21:30:24] [ __ ] brown. Oh, we'll deal with the fay.

[21:30:28] Funny, it always boils down to

[21:30:30] domination through dark arts. Well, that

[21:30:34] might do for a while. But neither beast

[21:30:37] nor man long tolerates the yoke. Of

[21:30:40] course, the forest's fighting back. The

[21:30:42] witches don't rever the land like you,

[21:30:45] but they aren't your enemy. Nissa is

[21:30:48] investigating why the fay are swarming

[21:30:50] to stop them. And she's helping me track

[21:30:52] Charvel's newest denisonens. Dangerous

[21:30:55] creatures called

[21:30:57] Shardborn. Hey, you've half a point.

[21:31:01] Witches aren't the whole problem.

[21:31:03] There's loggers outside Ensteig.

[21:31:06] Pampered city folk within. Both take

[21:31:09] from the forest. But the witch's oaths

[21:31:12] are old. They know better. But choose

[21:31:16] selfishness. Well, it's getting late. A

[21:31:19] knight in this forest is friend to none.

[21:31:22] Grab a pelt and share our tents. We'll

[21:31:25] search out your shard in the mourn.

[21:31:44] [Music]

[21:31:55] Be

[21:31:56] changed, be

[21:31:58] healed, and walk in

[21:32:02] harmony. You are all welcome

[21:32:06] here. This is a free land now.

[21:32:36] Ah, you're off. Cleaning up after the

[21:32:38] witches wasn't enough. The fay are still

[21:32:41] swarming.

[21:32:45] The land's in upheaval, too. Just this

[21:32:48] morning, I've heard reports of rock

[21:32:49] slides, entire groves wilting and

[21:32:52] twisting, and more of the witches in the

[21:32:55] woods coming from all over to work their

[21:32:58] magics. You've put too much trust in

[21:33:01] them. We need to find out what they're

[21:33:04] doing and hold them to account now

[21:33:07] before they destroy all of Charbal.

[21:33:10] I have their charm. Maybe we can use it

[21:33:13] to draw them here to talk.

[21:33:17] Absolutely not. But you can come to us.

[21:33:22] Follow me.

[21:33:24] Lisa said you'd be looking for us. I

[21:33:26] thought I'd save you a trip.

[21:33:29] By all means, stroll into a witch's

[21:33:32] lair. Just don't be surprised if they

[21:33:35] kill you the moment you learn their

[21:33:37] secrets. I sensed no deception. And if

[21:33:41] Niss has found any clues to the forest's

[21:33:43] corruption, it concerns you, too. I'm

[21:33:47] going do as

[21:34:21] I know you want to solve what's been

[21:34:22] done to Charval. I'm less sure about

[21:34:25] your friends, but we're short on time.

[21:34:28] We're preparing a great working to

[21:34:30] reveal just what's happening in the

[21:34:32] forest. Prima Helwig, the most

[21:34:35] accomplished among us. She's calling

[21:34:37] witches from all over the circle.

[21:34:43] Would you invite the druids here?

[21:34:46] They're fending off the fay their own

[21:34:48] way. They want what's best for the

[21:34:49] forest, too.

[21:34:53] I'm not the one to convince. Those

[21:34:56] druids plant their trees and pet their

[21:34:58] wolves and pretend they're tending the

[21:35:00] forest. But Charval won't be tamed. And

[21:35:04] caring for something wild

[21:35:06] costs more than they're willing to pay.

[21:35:17] Young lady, you don't know the first

[21:35:20] thing about what we've paid at the hands

[21:35:23] of your forebears.

[21:35:25] Or you know too much and you're not

[21:35:46] [Music]

[21:35:52] saying this is tense.

[21:35:55] The fay don't swarm this often. The

[21:35:58] trees don't twist on their own. You did

[21:36:01] something like always. What vile bargain

[21:36:05] did you people break this time? Elder

[21:36:08] Maxon, if you can sit on your claws for

[21:36:11] 5 minutes to listen. We'll share all we

[21:36:13] know. No harm comes to those within the

[21:36:16] coven house of the Untameable Wilds,

[21:36:18] lest they visit it on themselves.

[21:36:22] Huh? Never expected an invitation. Fine,

[21:36:27] this wanderer vouchers for you. We'll

[21:36:29] listen. But you aim those magics at me

[21:36:33] and I'll nash your head in my jaws.

[21:36:38] He's lively. O, come on then. We've

[21:36:42] stored knowledge and power in the Coven

[21:36:45] House for

[21:36:47] generations. If there's an ant, the

[21:36:49] ritual chamber's just below. So listen

[21:36:52] closely. Don't touch anyone who's part

[21:36:54] of the working. Don't block the

[21:36:56] moonlight. If you're violent, there's an

[21:36:58] old ward that will rend you cheeks to

[21:37:00] cheeks. And keep an open mind. This

[21:37:04] corruption could have come from

[21:37:05] anywhere, even something the druids did

[21:37:07] by mistake. Solving it might call for

[21:37:11] the

[21:37:14] unconventional. Let's go. Quietly,

[21:37:17] please.

[21:37:29] I greet you attendants in the sight of

[21:37:32] the moon and the shadow of the stones it

[21:37:34] shines upon. Stand away. Our working is

[21:37:38] about to commence. Anything to say,

[21:37:44] Char? Greetings. Bile rises from

[21:37:48] Charval's throat. Fury grips the dimmest

[21:37:52] parts of these wilds. We have asked

[21:37:55] thrice and now we demand to see it

[21:37:59] plain. Show us. Show us, oh child moon.

[21:38:04] Show us what hides beyond the darkened

[21:38:07] glade.

[21:38:13] [Music]

[21:38:30] Heat. Heat.

[21:38:53] In the southern thicket lies a

[21:38:55] malignance at once primordial and

[21:38:59] somehow fresh. The fay are swarming

[21:39:01] about something and there is an

[21:39:03] infection to the land that I

[21:39:06] mislike. No magic. Thanks for the

[21:39:09] information. We'll cut it out and then

[21:39:13] see about healing the land before it

[21:39:16] spreads. You can stand by so things

[21:39:19] don't get worse.

[21:39:22] It may be beyond healing. The fay are in

[21:39:27] frenzy. Will the land even respond to

[21:39:30] your commands, Maxin?

[21:39:33] My

[21:39:35] commands? Charval heeds. No commands.

[21:39:38] How are you leading this bunch when you

[21:39:40] barely understand the ground beneath

[21:39:42] your feet? Enough. The fay nearly wiped

[21:39:46] out a village. You need to work together

[21:39:48] to solve this or there will be many more

[21:39:51] casualties than just your

[21:39:59] pride. And how can I be sure they won't

[21:40:02] stop us in the back? History shows they

[21:40:05] relish the opportunity. Charval would be

[21:40:07] better off with you lot gone. I know

[21:40:11] blood has been spilt between our people,

[21:40:14] but you are not like Epha's disciples.

[21:40:17] None in my circle today would dare hunt

[21:40:20] you as they did the druids of old. I

[21:40:23] give you my word. I would put any who

[21:40:26] tried to death.

[21:40:30] If you kill each other, there will be no

[21:40:32] one to tend the forest. Surely you can

[21:40:35] think of a way to work beside them. So,

[21:40:38] let's hear it.

[21:40:42] Whatever she might say. They can't

[21:40:44] remove this infection with the care it

[21:40:47] needs. But with so many fay, we might

[21:40:51] not even get close

[21:40:52] enough. Unless we can bind the fay. If

[21:40:57] you'll permit our rituals, that will

[21:40:59] hold them at bay. Perhaps even drive

[21:41:02] them off while you work on healing the

[21:41:05] land.

[21:41:07] Fine. It's a bargain then. We'll go make

[21:41:10] ready.

[21:41:15] I thought I heard a plan there. I didn't

[21:41:18] dream it, did I? Let's move before

[21:41:21] someone changes their mind.

[21:41:45] Hopefully the druid's presence can

[21:41:47] soothe the land. They'll be a wee bit

[21:41:49] embarrassed if I can't even get us

[21:41:50] through the thicket.

[21:42:12] What could twist such an ancient

[21:42:19] day? Heat. Heat.

[21:42:58] Time. No. Hold it.

[21:43:17] It is as unteable as shall

[21:43:21] itself

[21:43:23] feel heal. Not as long as this creature

[21:43:27] walks it.

[21:43:30] Child moon, seed what I have given. Let

[21:43:34] the seasons keep their due.

[21:43:57] What have you done? The land is

[21:43:59] devastated.

[21:44:01] It will grow

[21:44:03] back. She won't. Maybe if you had more

[21:44:07] to offer than empty gestures, Charval

[21:44:10] would be safer. What you offer, your

[21:44:14] care for this land kills as much as it

[21:44:17] cures. Look at what it did to your own.

[21:44:20] If she saw another option, she'd have

[21:44:22] taken it. The next thing out of your

[21:44:25] mouth had better be gratitude or

[21:44:27] silence. Her magic will spread from this

[21:44:31] place, and desolation will follow. I

[21:44:34] know it. I would not speak ill of the

[21:44:37] dead, Elder. Because of her sacrifice,

[21:44:41] the forest is safer. If you are not

[21:44:44] willing to give your life, then the

[21:44:46] least you can offer is your

[21:44:48] cooperation. You shame

[21:44:51] me. And perhaps you're right, too. I

[21:44:54] will honor your dead, and I will work

[21:44:56] with your circle to heal the wilds.

[21:44:59] This I

[21:45:01] pledge for however long our truth can

[21:45:04] last.

[21:45:08] I am sorry for your loss. Thank

[21:45:12] you. Things are going to be harder

[21:45:15] without her, but we'll manage. We're

[21:45:18] grateful for what you've done and for

[21:45:21] what you said. He needed to hear it, and

[21:45:24] you should accept his offer. The danger

[21:45:28] to Charville is not over.

[21:45:32] Wait that knight.

[21:45:37] The

[21:45:38] magistrate won't be happy with you

[21:45:40] offering him it.

[21:45:43] Blame the crops. I got nothing for you

[21:45:46] people.

[21:45:50] [Music]

[21:46:04] Share your food. Don't send it to rocks

[21:46:07] in the royal

[21:46:10] storms. They've made you prisoners on

[21:46:13] free land. Yoke you like

[21:46:17] beasts. But you

[21:46:20] aren't. You are family.

[21:46:27] Another vision from that eye. Yes. It's

[21:46:31] like he knows I'm watching. Have you

[21:46:34] learned anything of the Shardorn in

[21:46:36] these woods? Their location, their

[21:46:38] purpose. All I saw was farmland and few

[21:46:42] trees. Farmland doesn't narrow it down

[21:46:45] much in these parts. We couldn't divine

[21:46:47] anything of the Shardorn at all. But

[21:46:50] with this corruption driven off, maybe

[21:46:53] we can count on other eyes to find them.

[21:46:56] The Fay. There's one who speaks for the

[21:46:58] Fay. She was one of us once. She'll only

[21:47:02] be found if they will it. But I'll try

[21:47:04] and reach her. Take this signet. In the

[21:47:07] meantime, the Coven House will remain

[21:47:09] open to you.

[21:47:13] Yes, things are clearer

[21:47:16] now. Heat. Heat.

[21:47:20] [Music]

[21:48:37] Yes, things are clearer

[21:48:51] [Music]

[21:48:53] now. All

[21:49:11] right.

[21:49:21] [Music]

[21:50:58] The great cycle continues

[21:51:00] onward. Are

[21:51:18] [Music]

[21:51:22] you sure?

[21:51:40] [Music]

[21:51:54] Surprisingly enjoyable.

[21:51:59] Thanks.

[21:52:31] [Music]

[21:52:59] There is always more to comprehend.
