    NessaI can think of only one reason why Piety would be here. She's interested in the sickness that pervades this place, the corruption that raises the dead and twists the wildlife into aberrations.
    HarganPiety's off to meet the Maker, is she? I'd love to be a fly on the wall for that little chat.
    GrigorPiety dies amongst her abominations, her warped dream taunting her, maddeningly out of reach. As a poet, I'm fond of that creed of justice.

    Here, the executioner needs recompense.
    GrigorDespite everything else you've done, to let Piety live is to threaten the existence of every living thing on this continent.

    Look to the west of Gravicius' camp. You'll find Piety in the Lunaris Temple, cowering behind her desecrations.
    MaramoaThere's still prey out there. An over-reaching witch, floundering out of her depth. Happy hunting, Makoru.
    MaramoaYou have claimed the most worthy of prey, Makoru. Piety, the Mistress of Corruption. I'm not saying the war is over, but you've given Wraeclast a much needed respite. Because of you, this land lives to see another dawn.

    ClarissaHalfway across the world and yet the tie between Vinia and I endures. That was Piety's real name back in Theopolis, before her rise to greatness.

    Vinia sold her thaumaturgy in the day, her body at night. Sought after, she was. Enough so to become one of my best buyers.

    But money never meant much to Vinia. No, she was striving for something better... nobler. Used to tell me that "Life needn't be this hard. It's time you all realised that."

    I bet she fed Tolman the same bloody line.
    ClarissaWherever he is, I'm sure Tolman knows what you've done. I know you didn't do it for him, or for me. It doesn't matter. Piety's reign of cruelty is over. Thank you.
    DiallaThe little cockroach witch? Malachai chose her... chose her over me?!

    Use her then. Use her as Malachai uses her. Burn betrayal with betrayal. It's all they deserve!
    Petarus and VanjaVanja: Piety... she still lives?

    Petarus: Then she needs to die {again}...

    Vanja: ...{permanently} this time. I honestly don't know who I'm more scared of, the Beast or that black-hearted Witch!

    Petarus: It's the combination that scares me, and it should scare you too, exile.
    VilentaI gave Piety everything, devoted my life to her work. What did that thankless bitch do for me in return? Left me here to polish her beakers while she pursued glory in Wraeclast.

    Oh. You killed her, did you? Likely as not, you'd have killed me too had I been there. In that case, perhaps we both got exactly what we deserved.
    Tane OctaviusMy master was no stranger to the machinations of the Templar elite like her. I feel a sort of kinship with her. We both gave up our names, though she did so voluntarily. We both sought to make something of ourselves. Where our kinship ends is how she made her name known. I can appreciate the desire for knowledge but, I can never condone the methods used to acquire it.

    If it is true that, in her dying moment, she sought to redeem herself, it casts an interesting light on our exploration of the darkness. Perhaps it is our very mortality that drives us to do good, to suppress the primal urges... Our actions outlive us, after all.

    Piety's raised Shavronne's Barricade? Not that I was likely to ever make the trip inland, but it was nice to have the dream.

    Hang on a moment, got a stray thought seeking safe harbour. Piety's one to watch her own back, so she'd never cut off an escape route from possible trouble inland.

    The cunning witch must be able to lower that barricade from the other side, somehow.

    The first time that mirror appeared to me, it was Kole I saw. A rapist from Oriath I had the displeasure of sharing a pen with in Gravicius' stockade. Piety took him for her experiments and that night, I saw her handiwork while I slept.

    This time, it was Tolman. Flesh dried to leather. Organs shrunk to husks. Blood trickling through his skeleton like red dust in an hourglass. It's Piety's gift to me, that mirror.

    At least I won't be seeing Clarissa the next time I look into it. Make sure it's not you I see, either.

    I walked halfway across this forsaken continent because of an ode. {Of Jewels and Eternity}, it's called.

    {For twinkled promises}
    {Of jewels and eternity,}
    {The Gemling Queen gave her heart}
    {And body}
    {To the King of Shades}
    {For one more day in the sun,}
    {The last day in the sun.}

    That's but a portion of the full epic. "The Gemling Queen" lived, and she's the enigma behind the fall of the Ezomytes and the Eternals both. Look to the Solaris Temple to the north-east. Find the Gemling Queen's remains before Piety does... and destroy them.

    Unfortunately, Piety was simply a puppet of a greater force. You've cut the strings but the master remains: Dominus.

    That key you've picked up, I heard the Blackguards talk of it. It's the one key to the Sceptre of God, on the northern edge of the Blackguard encampment. Only Piety was permitted to carry it.

    Dominus accessed his laboratory at the summit of the tower via a pulley system rigged to the outside wall. That way will be barred to you, and I heard of no one, not even Piety, going in or coming out of the lower levels.

    Go with care, exile. I can't imagine what's inside that tower if even Piety and Dominus feared to tread its steps.

    Piety's a genius sculpting mere human clay into "divine" Gemlings. At least, that's what she told me when she opened me up and buried a Virtue Gem in my entrails.

    Malachai did the same in the name of the Emperor, centuries ago. Chitus' Gemlings still rule Sarn. We call them the Undying now.

    I tried to penetrate the Solaris Temple in the north-east. Almost got myself killed by the bloody Ribbons that guard the place. Bizarre floating tapestries they are, creatures of cloth and thaumaturgy. Fortunately, a few legionnaires got in the way. While the Ribbons eviscerated them, I ran... straight into Gravicius.

    He dragged me over the bridge, to the Lunaris Temple in the west, and put me in Piety's "tender care". Didn't say a single word to me the whole time. I was nothing but a spoil of war to him.

    The Eternals revered Sun and Moon as the two eyes of their God. The right eye, Judging Solaris. The left eye, Merciful Lunaris. I can't imagine {that} God being overly merciful when She finds out what Piety's been doing in Her temple.
    GrigorBeast
    NPCTextAudio
    When Piety was... experimenting on me, my consciousness was mercifully fleeting. In those moments of numbing darkness, I met a presence.

    Intelligence, power, immensity beyond the limits of my pitiable mortal senses. To this creature, I was but a rain drop falling into the sea.

    I heard Piety speak to her lackeys of 'The Beast'. It is the source of her thaumaturgy, and the object of her ambitions. I believe Piety's 'Beast' and that dark entity are one and the same.

    Wherever it is, whatever it is, The Beast is the cause of my malformation. It would not be a stretch of reason to consider The Beast the source of all malformation in Wraeclast.

    Tolman's dead then. Another victim of Piety's cruelty. Perhaps he escaped lightly. Look upon Grigor to see what life entails under Piety's influence.

    Piety led us into that wretched place in the hopes of finding a device named simply 'The Spike'. Fashioned by Inquisitor Maligaro, it was said to enable the injection of 'Calibric Extantia' into living flesh. Calibric Extantia being the corrupt energies locked within virtue gems.

    We couldn't find the Spike, yet we met its most successful application.

    Piety would've concurred with Eramir's theory about that north-western ruin. The Vaal were a powerful civilization predating even the Eternal Empire and Piety very much wanted to see what toys the Vaal might have left for her to play with behind those stone doors. Yet we couldn't budge them, not with that giant of a tree holding them fast in her roots.

    You now carry a cure to that problem, or rather, a useful illness. Use the Spike to inject the Baleful Gem's calibric extantia into the roots. One day soon, Piety will find her way into that ruin. You need to get there first.

    It was Malachai who reached out to me, who wrapped me in Nightmare... made me his slave.

    He has shown me greatness beyond imagining, so much that I thought my mind would shatter under its weight. And although my mind remains intact, my dreams were not so fortunate.

    Malachai is in the Beast's black core right now, harnessing all that the Beast is, and will be. He will destroy this world and forge it anew in the divine image of Nightmare.

    Yet as powerful as Malachai has become, he's neither unreachable nor invulnerable. He sacrificed much to become the Beast's prime servant, both in spirit and in flesh, yet three vital organs remain.

    His heart, lungs and entrails, keepsakes of humanity lost. They will be our tickets into Malachai's private, little show.

    Venture deeper, deep into nightmare's abattoir. I'll follow when I'm able. You find me those organs and I'll get us into the Black Core.

    NPCTextAudio
    The Black Core is near. If the Beast were in any way human, we could think of the Black Core as the Beast's heart. I'm not even going to try to explain to you what it really is.

    Naturally, the Black Core is an 'invites only' party and we're not on the list. Yet I believe I have a way to correct that little oversight. Malachai gave up much of himself when he became the Beast's prime servant. Both in spirit and in flesh. Yet, in a moment of rare sentimentality, he kept a few pieces. Three vital organs, placed in the safe-keeping of his godless three; Inquisitor Maligaro, Shavronne of Umbra and Doedre Darktongue. No doubt you've heard of them on your travels.

    Bring me those organs and, I promise, I shall get us into the Black Core.

    Now I intend to correct that mistake.

    Really, I'm not helping you, exile. You're helping me.

    So, have you found those juicy organs for me yet?

    Malachai chose his three most loyal servants to guard those precious innards. His Godless Three. Inquisitor Maligaro, Shavronne of Umbra, and Doedre Darktongue.

    If the history books are accurate, High Templar Voll burned Maligaro and Doedre at the stake on his way to lay siege to Sarn. He didn't have to worry himself with Shavronne. Brutus had already sorted her out.

    Yet slaves of nightmare seem to be shackled just as tightly to life as they are to the Beast. I, of course, am living proof of that.

    Don't worry yourself with that little detail, though. Shackles are made to be unlocked.

    Malachai knew exactly what he was doing when he created the Rapture.

    His primary concern... get inside the Beast and take up the reins of true power. And his second objective... incite a Cataclysm that would wipe the very thought of resistance from this land.

    The Beast is the source of all thaumaturgy, the one power in this world that transforms 'what is real' into 'what is imagined'.

    The entire world is now at the mercy of one man's vision. It won't be the future I imagined, and it won't be the future you imagined, either. While he remains within the Black Core, the only imagination that matters... is Malachai's.

    VilentaOnResearch
    NPCTextAudio
    Piety and I have devoted ourselves to the betterment of the human condition. As for our methods, Piety had a saying that summed it up nicely. "Would you consider the feelings of the stones when constructing a glorious cathedral in the name of God?"

    Casticus supplied us with slaves, mostly Karui, and I put them to good use. In fact, I believe their participation in my experiments elevated them from squalor to splendor. Our subjects were able to give their otherwise meaningless lives to something greater than themselves.

    Isn't that what we all want in the end?
    VilentaOnSignOfPurity
    NPCTextAudio
    The Sign of Purity, yes... a descry staff that Piety sent me to study at one point. Apparently it was a gift from Innocence to the first High Templar, Maxarius. Dominus couldn't even bear to touch the thing so he had it locked up in the Ossuary. Quite reactive behaviour for a man of such formidable intellect, yet now it's making a little more sense.

    The staff was certainly able to conduct and store energy, yet remained inert when I applied corruption to it. It must only respond to divine energy, and with corruption and divinity being diametrically opposed, it's no wonder that my experiments failed to excite the thing!

    Meaning, if the Sign of Purity is a repository for the power of Innocence, Dominus could never have wielded it, being steeped as he was in the opposing power of the Beast.

    You though... you're a different matter entirely.

    Some time ago, I fabricated a device able to sense and amplify the corrupt murmurings of Wraeclast. A Miasmeter.

    I listened to those whispers for years, lingering beyond sane comprehension. And then the scream... such profound agony that my mind was nearly sundered by its percussion. I thought another cataclysm might be upon us. But no, it was you, slaying the Beast. I was witness to a singularly potent cadence.

    This corruption... I am convinced that it holds the very key to our human history, and with it, our very existence. Yet without the Miasmeter, I'm condemned to deafened ignorance.

    It remains in Piety's laboratory, as long as Utula's miscreants haven't vandalised the poor thing. Find it!

    To be perfectly honest with you, I don't trust her. Yeah, I've got my reasons. Piety kept her work pretty quiet but her results were brutally clear. The people she took, the people she... changed. Slaves mostly, and a few 'enemies of God'. Enemies of bloody Dominus more like it. I don't go in for black and white definitions of good and evil, but with Piety and her ilk, I make an exception.

    Whatever's lurking inside Vilenta, it ain't 'good', not by a long shot.

    When I was part of Piety's expedition into the Chamber of Sins, I stumbled upon a secret passage. It appears to have been constructed by the Inquisitor for the purpose of conveying his creations from his laboratory, via an ancient cave system, to the surrounding countryside without detection. These caves seem to feed out into what was once farmland near our former village.

    It may prove a useful route for you, although the passage was locked when I last stood before it. Let us hope that the key remains somewhere nearby.

    I find Navali's state of existence curious. She is present, sapient, and capable of self-directed action. In a land where the dead continually rise as mindless monsters intent on nothing but destruction, Navali stands as a stark outlier. I suspect that she is trustworthy only because of some Karui essence that still remains from her life before, carrying with it honor, duty, and respect. Were it Piety or Dominus returning in such a form, the consequences would be unthinkable.

That I was important, because I could tell whether an artefact was truly Vaal simply by running my hand along faded stone patterns.

    I may have had a head slightly too big for my shoulders. When the Ebony Legion made available an archaeologist position on their expedition to Wraeclast and nobody volunteered, I thought my colleagues were all simply afraid of continental dangers.

    No. They knew better. None were allowed to speak it openly, but they knew. I didn't find out what kind of society I was truly a part of until I saw Piety's aspirations. I studied the Vaal. I knew all about their downfall, or at least our Templar-twisted perception of it. Piety's ocean of slaughter... the Vaal called their hubris the Apex of Sacrifice. The Eternal Empire called theirs the Purity Rebellion. We call ours the Temple of Lunaris.

    And I know nothing, exile. Nothing at all.

    Save that we are doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past unless we learn the hard way.

    You likely know her by the name High Templar Dominus gave her -- Piety. A whore-turned-thaumaturgist-turned-inventor. Or at least, she wishes she were. I've seen some of her work. Unimpressive, considering the resources she has available to her.

    Not that I'm envious. I'm not. Really, good for her. But, you know, creators have a habit of getting caught in the teeth of their own creations, and Piety seems to favour creations with many, many teeth.

    Strange as it may sound, I'm somewhat sad. I know in my heart of hearts that they were not good people, but they were still people. I knew Dominus well. We worked together. Ate together. There was a time when I would have called him my friend. And Piety was fighting her own demons.

    I hope God sees fit to forgive their souls... And mine.

    My master was no stranger to the machinations of the Templar elite like her. I feel a sort of kinship with her. We both gave up our names, though she did so voluntarily. We both sought to make something of ourselves. Where our kinship ends is how she made her name known. I can appreciate the desire for knowledge but, I can never condone the methods used to acquire it.

    If it is true that, in her dying moment, she sought to redeem herself, it casts an interesting light on our exploration of the darkness. Perhaps it is our very mortality that drives us to do good, to suppress the primal urges... Our actions outlive us, after all.

    Ah, my contract. Took it out not long after joining the Ring to track down a mate of mine. Man named Enoch. Not easy making friends at my age, but active duty has a way of forging near-unbreakable bonds. Enoch and I got real close. Might as well've been brothers. Right before I got discharged, Enoch was called up to a special unit we'd heard rumours about. A group under the direction of Piety, of all people. Supposedly some elite strike force, but no one personally knew anyone who was a part of it. 'Til Enoch, that is.

    After I started working for the Boss, I asked Whakano to find Enoch. Thought he might be a good fit. But Whakano found no traces. I want to break into the Blackguard Records and find out where he's deployed.

    NPCTextAudio
    Gods damn them. Piety, Dominus, Gravicius, the whole lot of 'em. They moved Enoch into an 'Unspecified Research' unit. Dead a month later, the cause listed as 'Severe reaction to subdermal augmentations'. They tried to turn him into a gods-damned gemling, and killed him in the process. Oh, Enoch. I'm so sorry, mate.

    I appreciate the backup, Exile. I need a bit of time to sort my emotions out, but I reckon I'll have more work for you soon enough.

    Let's see what you've fished up. Hmm. Love letters? Well, nearly everyone's had their hand in Piety's cookiejar, so-to-speak, so that won't do. But these... Yes, these might work. Exile, have you already perused these papers?

    Perhaps of little consequence to a layperson like yourself, these papers are irrefutable proof that Darnaw has been personally funding the activities of the Brinerot Pirates!

    What? Don't look at me like that. This is an entirely different situation. The Brinerot are awful, bootlegging buccaneers! You are a ragtag bunch of down-on-your-luck ne'er-do-wells just trying to make the best life you can in this crazy world. Plus, I do no business with the Brinerot. Completely different.

    NPCTextAudio
    When I really think on it, Oriath's suffering was almost entirely the fault of its people. Not the common folk, mind you. The ones with the power. The Templars fostered a society in which monsters like Dominus and Piety could not only rise to power, but then wield that power to harm all of Wraeclast. Enslaving the Karui directly led to the cult of Kitava unleashing mayhem, and of course the tyranny of Innocence stemmed from the blind zealous faith they gave him. Then, there was the whole business with Sirus...

    Serving under Kirac in the Citizen Vanguard this past year has certainly been rewarding. This is a nobler cause by far than aiding the Blackguards. I don't know if Piety's atrocities can ever truly be made right, but I will keep trying until the day I die.

    My Shadow continues to nip at my heels. [To her attendants] Bag it and tag it, boys and girls.
    PietyIntroCrematorium2
    A dead man and a living machine. There's your truth, heretic.
    PietyIntroCrematorium3
    There she is, my work-in-progress. Let's see if Wraeclast has been good to you, Witch.
    PietyIntroCrematorium4
    You're simply too stupid to be realistic, aren't you, brute?
    PietyIntroCrematorium5
    Huntress, you are beatific because you answer to no one. And that's why no one will miss you.
    PietyIntroCrematorium6
    I'm so glad you could make it, my lady. There are answers inside you that I'd like to see.
    PietyIntroCrematorium7
    So you've chosen to end our affair, Duelist? I shall cherish your memory.
    PietyIntroLunaris1
    It's been a grand experiment, Shadow. Time we saw the results.
    PietyIntroLunaris2
    Your conviction drives you, heretic. But have you thought what it might drive others to do in return?
    PietyIntroLunaris3
    Of all the worlds you could have conquered, you had to choose mine. Such power wasted on a feeble imagination.
    PietyIntroLunaris4
    You've done your Ancestors proud, Karui. Now here's your warrior's death!
    PietyIntroLunaris5
    I have pursued a greater existence for us all. What have you ever done but serve yourself?
    PietyIntroLunaris6
    I see it now, wonder child. You are but a reflection. A mirror that I must now break.
    PietyIntroLunaris7
    Damn you!
    PietyDeathLunaris
    An Exile here? A shame the warden won't leave anything for me to examine. Make sure you tell our host that Piety of Theopolis sends her regards.
    PietyIntroPrisonNormal
    I recognise that pretty face. Grand Arena, Theopolis. I've a future in mind that I think would suit you, Duelist.
    PietyIntroPrison1
    Curious. It moves like a killer yet reeks of thaumaturgy. Would that I could observe you more closely, my mysterious Shadow.
    PietyIntroPrison2
    Your answer's here, heretic. In Wraeclast. But I don't think you'll like it very much.
    PietyIntroPrison3
    Ignorance brought you here, sister. To the one place where your talents are free to grow and be truly feared.
    PietyIntroPrison4
    Your brawn is about to meet its match, brute. Give the Warden my regards.
    PietyIntroPrison5
    Quite sure of yourself, aren't you, huntress? The Warden enjoys the taste of overconfidence.
    PietyIntroPrison6
    The wonder child? I saw you perform for Dominus, girl. You were very good. Good enough to survive Wraeclast? We'll see.
    PietyIntroPrison7
    Find your own way inland, exile!
    PietyIntroSpikePassageNormal
    You're a fine blade in need of forging, Duelist!
    PietyIntroSpikePassage1
    It lives! Let's see what else a Shadow can do!
    PietyIntroSpikePassage2
    The path to the truth is never a straight one!
    PietyIntroSpikePassage3
    This is for your own good, sister!
    PietyIntroSpikePassage4
    Strength isn't everything, brute!
    PietyIntroSpikePassage5
    This should put a dent in your arrogance, huntress!
    PietyIntroSpikePassage6
    If you're ever in Sarn, do drop in, wonder child!
    PietyIntroSpikePassage7
    Does nothing clench that proud jaw of yours, Duelist? Do share your secret with me some time.
    PietyIntroSins1
    How is it you thrive when everything I touch turns to dust, Shadow?
    PietyIntroSins2
    Save your judging gaze, heretic. Though He tests me, my God hasn't abandoned me.
    PietyIntroSins3
    Failure stings, sister. Yet pain is the finest of all teachers.
    PietyIntroSins4
    Go and test your sinews against that monstrosity. Perhaps two wrongs can make a right.
    PietyIntroSins5
    You again? Well, I'm sure you won't be looking so calm once that monstrosity tears you a new orifice.
    PietyIntroSins6
    Don't forget, Scion. You were born amidst the blood and the screaming, just like me.
    PietyIntroSins7
    Oh Duelist, you're so cute when you're bewildered.
    PietyCorruptIntro1
    Do you assassins offer a money back guarantee, Shadow?
    PietyCorruptIntro2
    You see, heretic? My God takes good care of me.
    PietyCorruptIntro3
    Be happy for me, sister. It's not often we get to erase our failures.

    PietyCorruptIntro4
    You've done well, brute. But let's not get above ourselves.

    PietyCorruptIntro5
    You see what happens when you hunt dreams, Ranger?
    PietyCorruptIntro6
    Who is the wonder child now, Scion?
    PietyCorruptIntro7
    My beautiful champion. I knew I could rely on you.
    PietyCorruptUntransform1
    Well done, assassin. Another satisfied customer.
    PietyCorruptUntransform2
    I may have misjudged that God of yours...
    PietyCorruptUntransform3
    Our mistakes can be our greatest achievements.
    PietyCorruptUntransform4
    Kaom wasn't half the man you are, Marauder.
    PietyCorruptUntransform5
    You've just earned yourself some bigger prey, huntress.
    PietyCorruptUntransform6
    Let's not make this a habit. It really hurts.
    PietyCorruptUntransform7
    That's twice now that I've experienced a 'little death' with you, Duelist. This time it was just the rude awakening I needed.

    When we shared our 'moment' back in the Lunaris temple, part of me wishes I'd died at your feet as intended. The little girl within me that shies from darkness, from greatness.
    Nightmare
    Stay those mortal instruments of yours, Shadow. I've no wish to test my longevity, nor my sanity, a third time.

    When we shared our 'moment' back in the Lunaris, part of me wishes I'd died at your feet as intended. The little girl within me that shies from darkness, from greatness.
    Nightmare
    Twice now you've baptised me in my own blood, Templar. So believe me when I tell you that I've had all the divine revelations that I can stand.

    When we shared our 'moment' back in the Lunaris, part of me wishes I'd died at your feet as intended. The little girl within me that shies from darkness, from greatness.
    Nightmare
    That's twice I've underestimated you, sister. Twice now that your talents have proved to exceed even mine. So it looks like you'll be the one to finish what I so blindly started.

    Part of me wishes I'd died at your feet as was intended. The little girl within me that shies from darkness, from greatness.
    Nightmare
    There comes a time when brute force is all that we have left. You've proved your worth to me, Karui, twice over. Time you proved it to Wraeclast.

    Part of me wishes I'd died at your feet as was intended. The little girl within me that shies from darkness, from greatness.
    Nightmare
    Listen carefully, Ranger, as this is something you will never hear from me again: I was wrong and you were right.

    Part of me wishes I'd died at your feet as was intended. The little girl within me that shies from darkness, from greatness.
    Nightmare
    I was always told to respect my 'betters'. Not once did I ever consider taking that advice... until meeting you.

    Part of me wishes I'd died at your feet as was intended. The little girl within me that shies from darkness, from greatness.
    Nightmare
    It was Malachai who reached out to me, who wrapped me in Nightmare... made me his slave.

    He has shown me greatness beyond imagining, so much that I thought my mind would shatter under its weight. And although my mind remains intact, my dreams were not so fortunate.

    Malachai is in the Beast's black core right now, harnessing all that the Beast is, and will be. He will destroy this world and forge it anew in the divine image of Nightmare.

    Yet as powerful as Malachai has become, he's neither unreachable nor invulnerable. He sacrificed much to become the Beast's prime servant, both in spirit and in flesh, yet three vital organs remain.

    His heart, lungs and entrails, keepsakes of humanity lost. They will be our tickets into Malachai's private, little show.

    Venture deeper, deep into nightmare's abattoir. I'll follow when I'm able. You find me those organs and I'll get us into the Black Core.
    Malachai
    The Black Core is near. If the Beast were in any way human, we could think of the Black Core as the Beast's heart. I'm not even going to try to explain to you what it really is.

    Naturally, the Black Core is an 'invites only' party and we're not on the list. Yet I believe I have a way to correct that little oversight. Malachai gave up much of himself when he became the Beast's prime servant. Both in spirit and in flesh. Yet, in a moment of rare sentimentality, he kept a few pieces. Three vital organs, placed in the safe-keeping of his godless three; Inquisitor Maligaro, Shavronne of Umbra and Doedre Darktongue. No doubt you've heard of them on your travels.

    Bring me those organs and, I promise, I shall get us into the Black Core.
    PietyGetOrgans
    You've come such a long way since we first met in Axiom prison. I was that close to snuffing you out, then and there, sister.

    But now look at us! Working together to destroy the greatest terror that Wraeclast has ever known. If I were the crying type, it'd bring a tear to my eye.
    Malachai's Organs
    Fate has a sick sense of humour, doesn't it? When I saw you that day in Axiom Prison, I genuinely thought it'd be for the last time.

    Yet here we are, the whore and the wonder child, committing a mutual act that will be felt for centuries to come.
    Malachai's Organs
    I remember when we first crossed paths in Axiom Prison.

    Logic dictated that you, a feral little girl of the wild, were to die under Brutus' bloody fists. You've proved logic wrong, time and again.

    Now here you are. Here we are. Defying logic one last time.
    Malachai's Organs
    You, my champion, have caused me more pain than any other man in my life.

    Yet do you know from whence my true agony has originated? Not from the violence you have inflicted upon me. I'm a big girl. I can take it. No, it is having to look into those pretty eyes of yours across this chasm of creed that separates us.

    Until this moment.
    Malachai's Organs
    So tell me heretic, is yours a compassionate God? I doubt even He has room in his divine heart for such an unusually talented sinner as me.

    Just so that we're clear about this. I'm not doing this for Him, anyway.
    Malachai's Organs
    When I met you that first time in Axiom Prison, I thought you a mindless mountain of muscle.

    I was wrong about you, Karui. So very wrong.
    Malachai's Organs
    The moment I set eyes on you in Axiom that day, I knew you were something special.

    Never before had I seen such a perfect balance of physiology and thaumaturgy, Death and Nightmare.

    A perfect killer.
    Malachai's Organs
    Before we walk this path together, it's important that you understand one thing about me.

    I don't regret a single thing that I've done. I set out to raise humanity up from the cloying mud of its fleshly ignorance. My mistake was not in the aspiration, but in the execution.

    Now I intend to correct that mistake.

    Really, I'm not helping you, exile. You're helping me.

    So, have you found those juicy organs for me yet?
    Malachai's Organs
    Malachai chose his three most loyal servants to guard those precious innards. His Godless Three. Inquisitor Maligaro, Shavronne of Umbra, and Doedre Darktongue.

    If the history books are accurate, High Templar Voll burned Maligaro and Doedre at the stake on his way to lay siege to Sarn. He didn't have to worry himself with Shavronne. Brutus had already sorted her out.

    Yet slaves of nightmare seem to be shackled just as tightly to life as they are to the Beast. I, of course, am living proof of that.

    Don't worry yourself with that little detail, though. Shackles are made to be unlocked.
    The Godless Three
    You work fast!

    You know, it is no mere 'freak of nightmare' that fashioned that monstrous version of myself, the one you so kindly despatched.

    The Godless Three took great pains in getting me looking... 'just so'. They were none too gentle about it either.

    So no need to play softly with the remaining two. Treat kindness with kindness.
    Malachai's Organs
    Good! Two down, one to go.

    You know, prior to meeting Maligaro, Shavronne and Doedre, I rather admired them. Their work, their accomplishments... sheer genius! As it turns out, genius is something better appreciated from afar.

    So let's remove this one, last genius from the vicinity, shall we?
    Malachai's Organs
    Excellent work!

    Now Malachai awaits us within that Black Core, blissful in his ignorance as he puts the finishing touches on his Awakening Engine.

    It's time we showed him a few finishing touches of our own.

    Would you care to do the honours?
    PietyDelivered3OrganCommon
    Malachai knew exactly what he was doing when he created the Rapture.

    His primary concern... get inside the Beast and take up the reins of true power. And his second objective... incite a Cataclysm that would wipe the very thought of resistance from this land.

    The Beast is the source of all thaumaturgy, the one power in this world that transforms 'what is real' into 'what is imagined'.

    The entire world is now at the mercy of one man's vision. It won't be the future I imagined, and it won't be the future you imagined, either. While he remains within the Black Core, the only imagination that matters... is Malachai's.
    Malachai
    This is what I get for trying to be a bloody hero. An honest death... the only redemption I was ever likely to get. You know, it's a question that's always haunted me... whose will be the last face I see. I like the answer. Go, my pretty champion. I want that fine arse of yours to be the last thing I see.
    PietyMalachaiDeath1
    This is what I get for trying to be a bloody hero. Just before you murdered me in the Lunaris, Shadow, I thought you were about to steal my destiny from me. As it turns out, you gave me back my freedom. So go on, shadow boy, and do what you do best. Murder Malachai.
    PietyMalachaiDeath2
    This is what I get for trying to be a bloody saviour. I've seen, felt... been things that you can't imagine, heretic, and I don't regret a damned moment of it. So go. Finish what we started. And when I find out if this God of yours is real or not, I'll be sure to let you know.
    PietyMalachaiDeath3
    This is what I get for trying to be a bloody hero. Who'd have thought you'd be so suited to the role? I was convinced I'd made a fatal mistake in sparing your life in Axiom Prison. Fatal, yes, but a mistake? No. Go now, sister. It's up to you to teach Malachai the true definition of Nightmare.

    PietyMalachaiDeath4
    This is what I get for trying to be a bloody hero. I was so sure that I was creating a prouder world, and I thought the Karui beneath such a future. I was wrong. Leave me, Marauder. I've got some explaining to do... to my Ancestors. You go and honour Malachai's head with a place on your belt.
    PietyMalachaiDeath5
    You... you were born for this. But you've always known that, haven't you. I've strived my whole life to make something better, of the world, of myself. You have simply lived, and the irony is, that's all that either of us ever needed to do. So go, finish the hunt, Ranger. Do what comes so naturally to you.
    PietyMalachaiDeath6
    This is what I get for trying to be a bloody hero. Not that long ago, you represented all that I hated. But there you stand, possessing the one thing I have always dreamed of. A chance to change the world. Go on then. I've played my part. I asked the difficult questions. Now it's up to you to get the answers.
