Introductions

Information

Dedicated Defender of Cimerora

Daedalus is the finest crafter these ancient times have ever seen. His gift borders on Celestial, but is in fact simply his own genius at work.

Wrong Side

I mistrust your motives, Character, and mistrust you. Leave me be.

Out Of Zone Contact

Daedalus has contacted you...

Character, I require your assistance in Cimerora. Please come as soon as possible.

This contact has now been added to the active tab of your Contact window.

Initial Contact

Well met, stranger. I am Daedalus, a craftsman and defender of this land. Your arrival is well-timed, for I am in need of aid.

Story Arc

Daedalus' missions contain characters who are able to identify the player's character by their gender. For the purposes of dialogue recording, the player's character is assumed to be male.

Stolen Power

Souvenir: Marble Token

This token is a gift from Daedalus, a reminder of how you helped him by recovering the Tabula Scutum, a stolen artifact of great power, in an adventure you've come to call:

Stolen Power

You tracked Ghost Widow through time and prevented the Tabula from being sent to the Rogue Isles. Your service to Daedalus didn't stop there; you fought side-by-side with him to clear out the caves where the artifact's shrine was and then restored the Tabula to power.

Without your help, the Tabula would have been lost to Cimerora forever. Now Daedalus can once again draw upon this power source in his fight against the fell Nictus.

Investigate the theft

Stolen Power
Part One

Briefing

Hail, Character! The guardians of the Tanula Scutum have gone silent and I fear that miscreants from the future have absconded with it. Would you investigate this theft for me?

Mission Acceptance

Please go to the Cavern of the Tabula and determine the fate of this tablet. The Tabula provides me with the energy I need to construct the devices and craftings I use to aid in the protections of my beloved homeland. Without its aid, my craftings are sadly weakened.

I do not understand the ways of the dwellers from your time or I would attend to this matter myself.

I will be grateful for your assistance in this matter. there is no telling what trouble these thieves will cause with such a powerful source in their hands.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Have you recovered my Tabula yet?

Mission Objective(s)

The cave complex is busy with activity, even though Daedalus said the guardians here had gone silent. Something is up.

• Investigate the Theft
  • Find the thieves

You find a strange machine that looks like it has just been used.
The Tabula Sectum is gone, but you've found something that might tell you where Ghost Widow and her thieves have taken it. You should consult with Daedalus to see what information can be gleaned from the device.

Enemies

Arachnos

Notable NPCs

• Arachnos Leader (Arachnos Bane Spider Executioner) (Boss)

You finish your investigation

Used Teleportation Device

The Tabula Scutum was missing, but this strange device was in its place. Perhaps it is what Arachnos used to remove the Tabula from the cave -- and Cimerora. You should bring the device to Daedalus in the hope of discovering where the thieves have gone.

Random chatter

Before combat:
Random Arachnos 1: "Why do we always draw guard duty?"
Random Arachnos 2: "Quit your complaining. This beats fighting heroes."
Combat start:
Random Arachnos 1: "I didn't sign up to face Character!"
Random Arachnos 2: "Finally, some action!"

Arachnos Leader

Before combat: "Keep your mouths shut about this operation. We can't afford to let Lord Recluse find out we've been freelancing for Ghost Widow."
Combat start: "Ghost Widow paid us to take care of any loose ends. That means Character. Get him!"

Debriefing

A valiant attempt, Character. While you did not find the Tabula, this device you've recovered will yield the secret of where these thieves have taken it.

I am proud to call you my friend, Character.

Find the thieves and recover the Tabula

Stolen Power
Part Two

Briefing

This Ghost Widow has used a teleportation device to remove herself and the Tabula Scutum to the future, to a place you call Founder's Falls. I have tracked her destination to a building there, where, for now, the Tabula rests. I fear she intends on removing the Tabula from beyond my reach. Would you recover the Tabula for me?

Mission Acceptance

The Tabula is more important than I have let on, Character, for it allows me to directly commune with Hephaestus, the Divine Smith. It is a direct conduit to the god and in the wrong hands can create no end of trouble.

You are a puissant and able warrior. It is well within your powers to track the trail of this thief. Please, recover the Tabula and make this Ghost Widow -- and all who dare fight for her -- pay for their insult to Cimerora.

Unnecessary Solicitation

You must pry the Tabula from Ghost Widow's grasp.

Mission Objective(s)

This building bustles with activity.

• Recover the Tabula
  • Defeat Ghost Widow

You have defeated Ghost Widow and recovered the Tabula Scutum.

Enemies

Random Arachnos 2: "Stay on your toes."
Combat start:
Random Arachnos 1: "How did Character find us?"
Random Arachnos 2: "What?"

Ghost Widow

Before combat: "Get that thing ready for shipment. I need it back at my facility as soon as possible."
Combat start: "I may be a ghost, Character, but you're the one who is going to be dead!"
At 75% Health: "Impressive, Character, but how can you defeat a ghost?"
At 50% Health: "You won't deprive me of this power! The Tabula Scutum is the key to ending this curse!"
At 25% Health: "need data"
Upon Defeat: "need data"
Defeats player: "Sad. I had hoped Character would be the one who could grant me my release.

Debriefing

I knew my faith in you was not misplaced, Character. I do not understand why this Ghost Widow coveted the power of the Tabula Scutum nor am I aware of this curse she spoke of as you vanquished her. If she had but asked, perhaps I could have aided her. But now I am well pleased that the Tabula is back in my hands, where it belongs. You have done me a great service and I will not forget that.

Truly, the gods did smile upon me when they caused our paths to cross, Character. You are a boon companion and a comfort to me.

Restore the Tabula Scutum

Stolen Power
Finale

Briefing

I have one final request for you, Character. The Tabula Scutum must be returned to its proper resting place and its power restored. I fear that with the artifact gone, my enemies have overrun the cave. I would ask your aid in defeating them and restoring the Tabula once and for all.

Mission Acceptance

I shall meet you in the cave and there we shall write the end to this saga with our brave deeds.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Please return to the Cavern of the Tabula and help me restore the artifact.

Mission Objective(s)

These caves seem alive with activity of Romulus' henchmen.

• Defeat the Cimeroran Traitors
  • Activate the Tabula Scutum

Finally, the caves are quiet save for the sound of the now-restored Tabula Scutum, which is quietly buzzing with power.

After restoring the Tabula, you will be ambushed by Nictus and Void Hunters.
