Part Two: Spellbound

Briefing

I am incapable of aiding my spell children while they remain beyond the grounds of the Midnight Mansion.

Character, you do not suffer such restrictions and as such you are my primary offensive asset.

You are a powerful ally who I would be helpless without.

The Talons of Vengeance are spread across Night Ward, seeking both my spell children and something of great importance to them, I know not what. This has left them vulnerable to attack.

Seek out the Talons of Vengeance in the City of Souls or the Howling Vale, neutralize their numbers. My divination magic will scan their memories to determine the location of their lair here in Night Ward. Upon collection of relevant information a full attack to destroy this lair.

  • Sounds like a standard Seek and Destroy mission

I'm not sure what the Talons want with my spell children, but it is most certainly for a dark purpose. Free them from the Talon's siren song.

Even if it means destroying them.

Hunt down Talons

Unnecessary Solicitation

The Talons of Vengeance are concentrated south of here in the City of Souls and the Howling Vale. Be cautious, they are both strong and move in number.

Ambush! Upon acceptance of the mission, there will be an ambush by the Talons of Vengeance.

Stop the Talons

Unnecessary Solicitation

The Talons of Vengeance are planning to attack another gathering of my spell children in the City of Souls.

The sizzle of ozone hangs in the air. A great magical battle has taken place here recently.

  • Stop the Talons
    • Defeat Alexandria

You did what you could to save the Animus Arcana from the lure of the Talons, but you were too late to save all of their lives. At least those who died won't live on in the service of those wicked creatures.

What prison do they refer to?
