Mission:Burden of the Past - Finale: Moment of Judgement

Finale: Moment of Judgement

Briefing

Let me see if I can get in touch with Sigil... mmph! Something's not right... Someone's talking to me in my mind! It's... Sigil, I think! Hold on...

...

...! Character, this is bad! Sigil says she's been captured by the Knives of Vengeance! They're keeping her and Kadabra Kill in a sewer system nearby!

They're putting the two of them on some sort of sick trial that is only going to end in their deaths!

• And that will only make Mot more powerful.

Right! If Sigil and Kadabra Kill die now, it'll only make things harder for us to actually fight against Mot!

Sigil gave me a rough location of where they are. You need to go save them! We need to make a stand here and now against Mot!

Unnecessary Solicitation

Hurry, Character!

Mission Objective(s)

The sewers of Dark Astoria have been warped by the Mot. Somewhere in these sewers the Knives of Vengeance are holding Sigil and Kadabra Kill captive.

• Save Kadabra Kill and Sigil
  • Find Sigil and Kadabra Kill
  • Speak with the Tempest
  • Defeat the Knives of Vengeance (if Sigil is chosen)

Editor's Note: If the choice is made to save both, a 2:00 minute countdown will begin during which time all Knives in the area must be defeated, otherwise Kadabra Kill and Sigil will die.

Tempest dialogue

Upon Approach:

Tempest: I knew you would come, Character. But the question we have... is for what?

Sigil: Augh!

Tempest

Briefing

Welcome, Magnificent. You're just in time to see the destruction of two oathbreakers, two sinners. The woman could have been left alone, if she did not insist on staying by this man's side.

They are both guilty of many crimes, but, let us pose the question to you. Shall we take just Kadabra's life and spare the woman? Perhaps you wonder why we ask you. An answer is not needed for that, only for the judgement to pass on them.

• Just take Kadabra's life.

You pause for a moment before answering. If you tell these women to take Kadabra's life, they will do it, but Sigil will be safe.

• Take Kadabra's life. (Defeat a Knives of Vengeance ambush)
• (Reconsider)

• Neither of them are dying today.

You pause for a moment before you say your words and look over the situation. Kadabra Kill and Sigil seem to be in some sort of ritual.

You size up the situation, seeing that you'll have to defeat all of the Knives of Vengeance if you have any hope of rescuing Sigil and Kadabra Kill. However, knowing how determined the Knives are, they will probably begin their ritual to kill the two while you fight them. You're not too sure how long this would take, but it couldn't be more than a few minutes before the two of them are killed.

If you could take down all of the Knives of Vengeance in this area before they complete the ritual, you could save Kadabra Kill and Sigil. However, if you can't defeat the Knives, then both Sigil and Kadabra Kill will be killed.

• I'm saving them both!
• (Reconsider your options)

• Kill them both, I don't care.

A smile creeps along the face of the woman.

Hrm... I suppose that could be arranged, Magnificent. You would truly just allow both of them to die?

• It doesn't matter to me.
• (Reconsider your options)

Sigil

Briefing

You saved us both, Character. We're in your debt. Kadabra and I must leave Dark Astoria, I'm afraid. We caused you so much trouble already. We just simply do not have the power to stand toe to toe with the creatures here. We'll never forget your help, Character, I promise you that.

• No Problem

Upon saving Sigil

Sigil

Briefing

Kadabra...

I... I don't believe this. It can't be real!

Why, Character! Why did you save ME and not my husband?! Why did you choose to leave me behind?!

I gave my very SOUL for his life! How could you do this to me?! Just... just leave me be. I'm taking his remains and leaving this... this cursed city. We never should have come here to begin with... but something told us... something inside both of us felt that we had to stop it.

Goodbye, Character. I hope you and I never meet again.

• (Leave)

Debriefing

Chose to save both; failed

Character! I haven't seen Kadabra Kill or Sigil yet. What happened?

... They didn't make it? No... this is... I don't even know what we should do now. They're dead... and now Mot is more powerful than before, and I'm left with no leads on what to do. There... might be something else, though, someone who can help you out, at least.

While you were gone, I had yet another visitor asking for you. He said that he ran into you in the Tsoo warehouse, a 'Mu' by the name of Mu'Vorkan. He claims that Arachnos is trying to work on finding a solution to the Mot problem and that they would like your help.

I know Arachnos is a villainous organization, but this seems like the only lead that you've got to work on, Character. With Kadabra Kill and Sigil gone, I'm all out of ideas. I'm honestly going to try to leave this place myself, once I... take care of one last thing.

Chose to save both; succeeded

Character! I just saw Kadabra Kill and Sigil! Thank goodness you were able to rescue them both. This was a HUGE blow to that monster, Mot! Heck, it even makes me feel better about things!

Chose to save Sigil

Character! I just saw Sigil. She... well, she didn't say anything, but I saw her husband's body. Look, I know you did your best, you're a hero, after all. We can't always win them all, but at least Sigil is alive.

Chose to kill both

+++ Missing Information +++

Eye of Vengeance You fought the Knives of Vengeance within Dark Astoria and discovered that they plan to hunt down and kill whoever they deem 'worthy' for their justice. It appears that, coincidentally, that's just about anyone on Primal Earth.
