Shadowplay is a 10-2 rank mission.
Overview
Description:
Even after Lord Vanaduke's defeat at your hands, Firestorm Citadel continues to burn with accursed flames. Though the nature sprites have been steadily making progress in fighting the flames, something or someone has recently caused a violent resurgence in its destructive power. Spiral HQ requests that you gather together a crack squad of knights and return to the collapsing ruins of Firestorm Citadel in order to discover the source of the disturbance.
Objective:
Discover the source of the disturbance in Firestorm Citadel.

 Nature Sprites
The southernmost sprite:
|
|
| Greetings again, star-borne one.
|
|
|
|
| Yes, we nature sprites are the rain, the root, and the soil. But you are not like us. You are like the ones below.
|
|
- Speaking of 'below,' how do I get there now? This place is collapsing!
|
|
| Sadly, even with our link to the Spirit Mother restored, we can only do so much to save this place. Yet, even as one path closes another might open. It is the nature of this shifting world. Good fortune, star-borne.
|
|
The westernmost sprite:
|
|
| Even though you have defeated Vanaduke, it appears as though the curse he brought down upon this kingdom still lingers. It requires all of our power to keep these raging shadow fires in check.
|
|
The northernmost sprite:
|
|
| We all sensed the moment you defeated Vanaduke. The entire citadel shook as he fell and for a moment we thought that this realm would be destroyed along with its ruler. You must be careful wandering these halls with the place coming apart like this!
|
|
Torin
|
|
| Hold fast, traveler. You stand in the court of the Kingdom of Almire. Do you not hear the trumpets sound the return of our mighty legions? Are you not in awe of the prestigious heraldry of our great houses and statesmen?
|
|
- Sure, it seems very impressive.
- I don't see or hear any of those things.
If the player chose option 1:
|
|
| (You sense great pride coming from the fallen knight, but he says no more and stares off into the distance towards a lifetime that only he sees.)
|
|
If the player chose option 2:
|
|
| (Your words to not seem to faze the fallen knight, whose mind seems to be lost somewhere in the glories of his past life.)

Notes
Goal: Fight Herex and defeat waves of poisonous minions.
|
|
| Too late again! I have already collected the power I need to use the Artifact and nothing you can do now will stop what I have set in motion.
|
|
After defeating waves of toxic minions:
|
|
| Go. I will allow you to have one last moment before I destroy your meddling kind. However, should you choose to turn down my generous offer then you are welcome to come and face me in the Core where I will hasten your demise.
|
|
|
|
| I look forward to our next...meeting.
