Dark tidings indeed, <name>.
I could sense something stirring beneath the waves. If the Old God is on the rise, we must make ready.
Notes[]
- Xal'atath found
- Xal'atath says: Here we are. Do not be afraid. This was always meant to be.
- Void Stone placed
- Xal'atath says: A stone to call forth the darkness...
- Trident of Deep Ocean placed
- Xal'atath says: A weapon forged in the depths...
- Tempest Caller placed
- Xal'atath says: A crown for the ruler of all worlds...
- In-game cutscene
- Xal'atath and the adventurer approach the Eye as she speaks.
- Xal'atath says: Hear me, God of the Deep! I have brought you the Opener... the Bringer of Truths... the Torch That Lights the Way!
- The adventurer looks over at Xal'atath on the mention of "the Opener." Dark energies take control of the adventurer and lifts them into the air, the blade being dropped in the process. Xal'atath walks up further.
- Xal'atath says: Honor our bargain... free me to find my own fate!
- N'Zoth says: Go... but the blade must remain... to serve my will.
- Xal'atath glances back at her old vessel, then to N'Zoth.
- Xal'atath says: A fair exchange. Shadows guide you, my dear friend.
- Xal'atath says: We will meet again... I am certain of it.
- Xal'atath departs through a void portal.
- N'Zoth says: I have dreamed your destiny, mortal.
- The large, closed Eye opens.
- N'Zoth says: The hour is close at hand.
- N'Zoth says: That which was sunken shall rise.
- N'Zoth says: All that were sleeping... shall be awakened.
- Another, smaller void portal opens. Tendrils are seen writhing from it.
- N'Zoth says: Receive my gift and see all truths before you.
- A single, larger tendril than the rest stabs the adventurer's head. The latter reappears outside the Crucible... with the [Gift of N'Zoth] encircled around their head.
- Quest completion
- I have been given a "gift". Do you know how to remove it?
I have been given a "gift". Do you know how to remove it?- Something dark is growing within you, <name>.
- I can sense the tendrils of N'Zoth burrowing into your mind and soul.
- Is that why I can see N'Zoth's eye on so many people?
- You see eyes everywhere?!? This is more dire than I expected.
- Do not trust what you are seeing. These "eyes" are surely just N'Zoth's influence within your mind, deceiving you.
