Finale: The Strongest Bond
Briefing
There is no way that I can repel a massed attack now, Character. While the mansion's defenses can repel the Talons of Vengeance themselves, those spell children who they have swayed to their side will be quite capable of passing through my enchantments.
If they bring down the wards around the standing stones then the Talons of Vengeance will be able to breach the mansion interior.
- I won't let that happen.
Character, you cannot let them through. If the Talons of Vengeance can turn my children against me then there is no telling what will happen if they can get to me.
The Midnighters have agreed to set up a perimeter defense around the mansion exterior. They will help you, but won't wander too far from the mansion.
Your best bet is to draw the enemy to them where they can assist you in dispatching them while I continue to modify the mansion's defenses. Even still, you may wish to team up with others as this will not be easy.
This mission is of higher difficulty than normal, consider bringing another player along to help.
Unnecessary Solicitation
Remember, you just need to buy me time to reconfigure my defenses in order to repel my spell children, then we will be safe.
All you must do is hold them off until I can reweave the mansions defenses. The defenses will then take care of the rest.
- I'll do what I can (Enter Mission)
Mission Objective(s)
You can feel the magic in the air long before the first spell even approaches the mansion. The Talons have pulled out all the stops this time.
- Defend the Midnight Mansion
- 7 waves of Animus Arcana remaining
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Master Winkley (Midnight Masters Boss Ally)
- Reanimated Acolyte x2 (Ally)
- Montague Castanella (Praetorian) (Ally)
- Lady Atella (Elite Boss)
- Destroy the Northwest Ward
- Destroy the Northeast Ward
- Destroy the Southwest Ward
- Destroy the Southeast Ward
They're altering the defensive wards to shunt you out, you'll need to destroy them
- 7 waves of Talons remaining
- Stop Ward!
- Meet Clarity at the Front Gate
- Escort Clarity to the Reflection Pool
- Defeat Lady Atella and the Ravenwing Cabal
You successfully defended the Midnight Mansion from the Talons of Vengeance, but at great cost.
Debriefing
The Mansion is safe once more, but... at such a cost...
Character, had it not been for the actions of Clarity I would have likely destroyed the Midnighters, and all that I am... or was.
The Talons of Vengeance twisted me into an instrument of death and hate, but Clarity... Clarity saved me. She saved us all...
I understood for the briefest of moments, while the Talons were losing their hold on me and Clarity was with me, what it was to be free. What Clarity was fighting for. What the Talons of Vengeance seek to take from us all.
I saw the plans of the Talons of Vengeance as well, if only the very surface. It involves the Black Knights. Clarity's last memories also included the Black Knights. Her thoughts of them flowed through me and brought me back.
There is a Black Knight named Bedwyr. He was Clarity's first true friend.
I sense in him a great and powerful ally.
Seek out Bedwyr, tell him that the Talons of Vengeance plan to breach the Eternal Prison, and that he does not have to stand against them alone any longer.
Tell him of Clarity's sacrifice and let him know that if ever he is in need, I, Ward, Spellfather of Clarity and the Animus Arcana, and Overspell of the Midnight Mansion, shall stand by his side!
