Transcript

Head over to the Court of Whispers

Court of Whispers

As the player enters the Assembly Hall

• Mysterious Patron: (from a distance) Excellent! Come now, we have much to discuss.

Speak with the Mysterious Patron

• Mysterious Patron: Welcome, Initiate. You are one of us now, as I knew you would be. There is a lot for you to achieve before you'll be ready to help overthrow the Immortals.
  Speak with the Twilight Agent to get started. We all see your potential. Don't let us down.
• Class: I made it down the stairs, didn't I? Don't worry.

Speak with Vannak—the Twilight Agent, in the Main Hall

• Vannak: Overthrowing the Immortals is no easy task. But with your help, and a proper plan, we might just have a chance.
  Pay close attention and I'll walk you through what we have in store.

Vannak begins his explanation, using depictions on the notice board

The explanation is not seen as this is when the tutorial occurs

• Vannak: Each Stage unlocks new Activities.
  Look here to see what it takes to advance the Stage.
  Over time, you'll learn new ways to move our plans forward.

After the explanation

Learn more about the Shadows (Ranks)

• Vannak: Within the Shadows, your Rank demonstrates your dedication and efforts to the cause.
  And that dedication is rewarded. The higher your Rank, the more you'll have access to within our organization.

Vannak begins his explanation, using depictions on the notice board

• Vannak: Complete these quests to improve your Rank
  As you participate in different Activities, you'll increase your Rank further. Nuon can tell you more.

Speak with Nuon—the Path of Blood Guide

• Nuon: Enduring these trials is a powerful way to improve your standing in the eyes of others
  Each floor will bring new challenges, as well as new respect if you survive.

Complete a floor in the Path of Blood⁽³⁾

... and return to Vannak

• Vannak: By being recognized as Initiate II, you can now be trusted with some of our better-kept secrets. Speak with Bailey and tell him Vannak sent you.

Speak with Bailey—the bartender of Wolf City Tavern

• Bartender Bailey: Vannak, you say? Good. Can always use more hands in the kitchen. The Shadows have special jobs that need doing... Contracts, if you will, and I'm the one who serves 'em out.
  Check in regularly, as there's always something new simmering on the stove, if you catch my meaning. Hate to see the pot... boil over.
• Class: Of course. I'm a kitchen hand, and we're talking about cooking. Obviously.

After finishing a contract

• Bartender Bailey: Consider this contract closed. There's always more to do, but here's your reward for a job well done.

Speak with Fyggus—the Master Vault Raider, in the Court of Whispers

• Fyggus: Initiate III? Already? You're not one to lay about, yeah? Eager to get messy? Looking to get wealthy? A thief after my own heart! Not literally, I hope.
  Risk equals opportunity. Opportunity equals rewards and recognition, right? The Vault's carefully guarded, sure, but I'm willing to bet your safety on it.
• Class: Hm. I am unaccustomed to thieves being so forthright.

Join a Vault Raid (optional)

Speak with Vannak

• Vannak: Congratulations on your performance so far. Now, to reveal one of our greatest honors and heaviest burdens.
  Within the Shadows are smaller groups of like-minded people. Together they form Dark Clans and vie to be worthy of overthrowing the Immortals. Find the Unspoken to learn more.

Meet with The Unspoken in the Assembly Hall

• The Unspoken: I can help you form a Dark Clan. If you are one of the top ten Dark Clans, you can attempt to unseat the Immortals with the Rite of Exile.

Join a Dark Clan

• The Unspoken: Joining a Dark Clan is crucial to our success. Once you are ready, Sampha can explain.

Speak with Sampha

• Sampha: The Rite of Exile is the ultimate test of the Immortals, and it is up to us to administer it. If they fall on this ancient battleground, our strongest will rise up to take their place.

View details about the Rite of Exile

• The Unspoken: (disembodied) Only the top ten Dark Clans can attempt the Rite of Exile.

Speak with Vannak

• Vannak: You are on the precipice of greatness, Initiate. All that remains, for now, is to reach Apprentice land show that you are truly with us.
  Advance along the Path of Blood, raid the Vault, or complete Contracts. There are many ways to prove yourself and the choice, my friend, is yours.
• The Unspoken: (disembodied) Attend the ceremony to officially become an Apprentice of the Shadows.
• Vannak: Come back when you're an Apprentice, and we'll talk more.

Touch the Everburning Fount to Rank Up

Return to Vannak

• Vannak: The Immortals must always prove their worth, and it is up to you to make sure they do. As you grow stronger, so do all Shadows. And some day, with your help, we might be the new Immortals.
• Class: If they are not prepared to defend Sanctuary, we must change that. Even if it means taking their place.
• Vannak: The Shadows will ask a lot of you, but you're no stranger to sacrifice. That's why you're one of us.
