Seeds of Destruction (40-50)
Casually disregarding this seed at first as nothing special, you notice an odd pattern that has been etched on its surface.
Looking closer at the pattern, you recognize mystical etchings similar to the kind that the Circle of Thorns use in their rituals. As you continue to inspect the seed, a sickening purple glow begins to swirl around the runes. Instinctively, you throw it - and not a moment too soon, for it bursts into an explosion of dark magics.
With this seed being innocuous enough that someone of your ilk is able to overlook it, how many more of these seeds are making their way around the Rogue Isles? Additionally, who is it that these seeds are intended for? And even more importantly - why aren't you in on this scheme?
Then again, maybe these seeds have a nasty catch on them. It might be a good idea to eradicate them entirely.

 ROGUE |
Villain Acceptance
Briefing
The power these seeds contain would allow you to do all manner of... Interesting things. However, the first step will be to get them out of the hands of the Circle of Thorns and into yours. Once you've found the source of their creation, you could really go to town with these. And by town, you're thinking Paragon City... or maybe even bigger!
- Track down the cultists and take their magical seeds!
The best place to start looking for the cultists is likely within one of their old temples. And you know exactly where to find one. Head off in that direction and rip those vessels of destructive magic from their zealous hands!
Unnecessary Solicitation
You still need to track down the source of where these seeds are coming from. Once you've found where the Circle of Thorns cultists are creating them, take the seeds for your own.
Mission Objective(s)
This seems like a good place to start looking for more of those seeds. You can hear these guys chanting up a storm down the myriad hallways of these decrept tunnels. Let's hope you can find the seeds before the cultists find you.
- Find the source of the seeds.
- Defeat the Summoner responsible for the seeds
- Find where the Book of Kantikos is being kept
It seems the seeds of destruction were only created to lure Dedesmona into a trap. You may have lost the book, but at least you got to beat up that turncoat... And some cultists at the same time!
The Seeds of Destruction were an elaborate plan to trap Desdemona for use in a ritual by the Circle of Thorns. Her parting words before being teleported away to a hospital were to destroy the Book of Kantikos. You have other ideas in mind for it.
+++ Missing Information +++
A clue is obtained from opening the chest containing the Book of Kantikos but is erased when the mission completes when it is collected, making documentation difficult.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
Ambush! The Circle of Thorns will ambush the player when Desdemona's health reaches 50%.
Debriefing
The seeds of destruction were nothing more than a lure for Desdemona to walk into the Circle's lair. Even though you found the book used to create the seeds, that too was booby trapped. Ultimately, you were able to take out your frustrations on that turncoat, Desdemona, so at least the day wasn't all bad.
Rogue Acceptance
Briefing
These seeds may be too dangerous for even someone like you. Small and unassuming, anyone could come across them without noticing what kind of danger they're in. You're not so much concerned about other people being victim of them but rather you running into another one.
Perhaps it would be best if you tracked down these Circle of Thron cultists and put a stop to whatever their scheme is!
- Stop the Circle from creating more of the seeds of destruction.
You have a pretty good idea where to find the ones responsible for these strange seeds. If your hunch is right, you'll likely find them in the act of creating more of these deadly little bombs.
Find some clues as to how they're making them, then take out those crazies!
Unnecessary Solicitation
You still need to take care of the Circle of Thorns plot to plant seeds of destruction around the Isles.
Mission Objective(s)
As you enter, you hear a mysterious voice in your mind - 'Whoever you are... Help me... I've stopped the cultists... But they've... Caught me...'. Sounds like you weren't the only one with a mind to beat the daylight out of these cultists.
- Destroy the Seeds!
- Find the mysterious voice
- Defeat the Low Chanter to escape
Looks like one of the Heroes beat you to the Circle of Thorns goons. No matter... You still got a little extra spending money for a little bit of work.
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- High Priest Gathemedes (Circle of Thorns Death Mage)
- The Low Chanter (Circle of Thorns Death Mage)
- Desdemona (Captive)
Before the weakened Desdemona ran off, she said she owed you a major favor. You'll have to remember to take her up on her offer next time you're in a pinch.
Debriefing
Desdemona, demon summoner turned hero, beat you to the punch. Although you might see that as a bad thing, she was the one who did all the work. All you had to do was lift a finger, and now she owes you a favor.
