Part One: Vengeance

Briefing

I'll be completely blunt, Character. I don't know a lot about what's going on. However, Kadabra Kill and Sigil seemed to at least have an idea of what to do first.

They told me that they would check back periodically with me. Sigil stated that they were trying to find out what was going on with those monsters I mentioned to you, the ones who were attacking the assassins.

Kadabra Kill mentioned that they had tracked some of them down to a nearby cave system.

  • So if I find Kadabra Kill and Sigil, I'll find some answers.

Yes, I would assume as much. You'll have to convince them you're not there to attack them, though, given your reputation.

I'm going to be staying here to see if I can find anyone else who is wandering within Dark Astoria. Before you came along, I saw several other individuals running through the streets. I tried to call out to them, but they could not hear me, and I could not risk leaving this safe area.

If you care, I would be on the lookout for any missing supers while you're here.

Check on Sigil

Unnecessary Solicitation

Nothing else here, Character.

Mission Objective(s)

You descend into a system of large caverns beneath the city of Dark Astoria. You see the woman, Sigil, nearby.

  • Find Kadabra Kill and Sigil
    • Check on Sigil

Enemies

  • None.

Notable NPCs

Briefing

Oh, Character, you are a sight for sore eyes! My husband and I were hoping that someone else would show up to help us, but we never imagined it would be you!

Montague has asked that the rest of the Midnight Squad stay out of the affairs in Astoria for the moment. We can't risk losing any more members to this until we know more about what's going on.

  • Understandable. What's the situation here?
My husband and I have been investigating what's going on. Have you seen them in the streets? The monstrous beings that are terrorizing the area along with the Banished Pantheon. We think they might be members of the Knives of Artemis, but transformed. They might have something to do with all of this, but we can't be sure.
I was going to try to push forward through these caverns; there's a member of the group that ran into here. However, there's just too many for me to take on alone.
If you're serious about trying to stop this, Character, then I would try to track down that woman and see what she knows. In the meantime, I'm going to meet back with my husband and tell him that we have your help.
  • Alright, I'll take care of things here.
  • Do you know what happened to the missing supergroup?
We encountered a member from a supergroup that was called here. He mentioned how the rest of his group was lost to the city.
The man looked like a shade of himself. My husband told him that we could help him, but he refused, saying something about being beyond help, how he couldn't bear the burden any more. He ran off around a corner. We heard a scream and chased after him. He was gone, Character.
During our time here, we've seen a few supers, and even a detective, but none of them stayed still long enough for us to talk with them.
  • Got it. What else can you tell me about the situation here?
My husband and I have been investigating what's going on. Have you seen them in the streets? The monstrous beings that are terrorizing the area along with the Banished Pantheon.

EdLetter.png Editor's Note:

The following is alternate dialogue from Sigil. It's unclear what the trigger is for the different intro text, possibly owning the The Thief of Midnight Badge.

Sigil glares at you.

You! I remember you all too well, Character. Are you still just a lackey for Darrin Wade, even with all of your power, or have you broken away and become your own man / woman?

Or are you working for whatever creature is trying to destroy the world?

  • That's in the past. I'm here to stop whatever is happening.
You're here to stop what's happening? Hrmph... I suppose stranger things have happened.
My husband and I have been investigating what's going on. Have you seen them in the streets? The monstrous beings that are terrorizing the area along with the Banished Pantheon.
  • What about them?
We think they might be members of the Knives of Artemis, but transformed. They might have something to do with all of this, but we can't be sure.

  • Alright, I'll do that.
  • Look, Sigil, I'm sorry for what happened in the past.
What? You're sorry? For attacking my husband and I? For breaking in to the Midnighter's mansion? For working with Darrin Wade?
  • That would be it, yes. I'm here to help now with what's happening.
Sigil stares at you for a few moments before sighing.
I'm suspicious, but I'll give you a chance, Character. My husband and I have been investigating what's going on. Have you seen them in the streets?

Find the missing Hand of Artemis

Mission Objective(s)

You descend into a system of large caverns beneath the city of Dark Astoria. You see the woman, Sigil, nearby.

  • Find Kadabra Kill and Sigil
    • Find the missing Hand of Artemis

Enemies

Notable NPCs

Briefing

You see a member of the Knives of Artemis, surrounded by what appears to be former members of the Knives of Artemis. They look normal, at first glance, but upon closer inspection you can see monstrous details that set these women apart.

The member of the Knives of Artemis looks worn out, tiredly grasping onto her blade, the edge of it looking dull from too much use.

Character, the famous hero. I remember receiving many hits to kill you.

That's all changed now, however. The end is here, and we're all witnesses to the collapse of our world. They're all gone, now, beyond my grasp. I had to kill them, put them out of their misery.

  • What's going on here? Who are these monsters?
These were my sisters. Something happened to our inner circle, but I do not know what.
They chose to be transformed, to become something higher, as they say. I do not know who or what caused this... I only know that they've broken from the organization. They call themselves the Knives of Vengeance. They tried to get me to join them, but I refused.
They called me traitor and chased me down. They wanted to kill me, Character, but I killed them first. We were trained not to care for the deaths of our fellow assassins, but nothing prepared me for killing them when they've become... monsters.
  • Why do you say it's the end of times?
The organization is gone, Character. The monster within Astoria is awakened. Forces of nature beyond our comprehension attack us from every side.
I kill five, ten more show up... there's no end to this. My hands are covered with the blood of my sisters, twisted and disfigured.
I can't go on any further, Character. There's no hope left for this world, don't you see?
You see a strange presence beginning to gather around the Knives of Artemis assassin...
  • What the...?


Defeat the Knives of Vengeance assassin!

Mission Objective(s)

You descend into a system of large caverns beneath the city of Dark Astoria. You see the woman, Sigil, nearby.

  • Find Kadabra Kill and Sigil
    • Defeat the Knives of Vengeance assassin!

Knives of Vengeance
The cave you delved into contained more than you could've imagined. You watched as a member of the Knives of Artemis was swallowed by some sort of monstrous... mouth, after she was proclaiming that the world was doomed. She told you that the Knives of Artemis had transformed into these monsters called the Knives of Vengeance.

You were then attacked by one of their assassins, who spoke of others that they had to deal with. Is this the result of the monster that has awakened within Dark Astoria?

Speak with Heather Townshend

Mission Objective(s)

  • Speak with Heather Townshend

Briefing

Character, what did you find out?

You explain to Heather what happened in the caves beneath Dark Astoria.

That's... that's horrible. I didn't even know about these Knives of Artemis until today... but that must've been the assassin I had seen. You said she was swallowed by some sort of mouth? I wonder... was it because she gave up hope? I don't know, it's a crazy theory.

Do you have any idea what caused these women to transform?

  • No, not in the slightest.
Hrm, well, I think the most we can do at this point is to try and figure out more about why this woman was eaten. If we find out more about the power at work here, we can stand a chance at stopping it.
  • I'm all ears if you have an idea.
