Transcript[]
- Neyrelle: Oh, I see. The path is different now. The statue was an illusion.
- Neyrelle: We must be close.
- Neyrelle: Finally, the Horadric Vault!
- Class: This is the place?
- Neyrelle: Not what I expected...but let's not give up hope.
- Neyrelle: All we need is one book, one spell to help us cross the Black Lake and stop Lilith.
- Neyrelle: Sealed shut.
- Neyrelle: What of the passage over there?
- Neyrelle: This is...I think it's written in Horadric code. And here! The same symbol on the door...
- Neyrelle: I have an idea.
- Neyrelle: You might want to take a step back.
- Neyrelle: (Speaking Horadric)
- Neyrelle: Let's keep on.
- Neyrelle: I wish mother was here.
- Neyrelle: Hey! Wait for me!
- Class: Can you open this door?
- Neyrelle: It's the same seal as before. Should be easy enough to break again, but why would someone use it here?
- Class: One way to find out.
- Neyrelle: Of course, we can't let anything stop our pursuit of Lilith. I'll open the door, and if we split up, we'll work faster that way.
- Class: Only if you stay on this side of the door.
- Neyrelle: Fine.
- Class: What am I looking for?
- Neyrelle: Don't you know? A book, a scroll, or anything that will help us cross the Black Lake.
- Neyrelle: (Speaking Horadric)
- Tchort: Thief! You won't take my master's book!
- Class: Why was a demon guarding that book?
- Class: I should take this back to Neyrelle.
- Neyrelle: I hope you had more luck than me.
- Class: I found this book.
- Neyrelle: Interesting. The ledger was written by the Horadrim. This is chronicling spells and theories created by Rathma, the first necromancer.
- Class: That's not what we are looking for.
- Neyrelle: No, but it can still work. There must be a spell in this book we can use to bring my mother back. She knows the ritual to cross the Black Lake.
- Class: Are you sure this is a good idea?
- Neyrelle: It's all we have. My mother will help us through.
- Neyrelle: Meet me down there.
Optional Dialogue[]
This dialogue is unlocked with Neyrelle at the conclusion of the quest.
- Class: The passage was infested with demons.
- Neyrelle: I thought I heard something, but demons? How is that possible? It couldn't have been the Horadrim. They're secretive, but would never follow such a path.
- Class: Rathma? That can't be a coincidence.
- Neyrelle: You mean that we found Rathma's book here and Lilith's going after him? My mother told me once there are no coincidences when immortals are involved.
