Initial Contact
You. I can smell it on you, the lack of morality, the desire to take what you want. Perfect... perfect! I am Alastor, and as you can see, I am quite... dead.
You do not need to concern yourself regarding my fate, just know that what caused my death will not impede you. I speak with you today to see if you and I can form an alliance of a sort.
I was once quite powerful, back during my lifetime. Now, I have nothing, except my vengeance and a desire to see one of my greatest projects put to use. If you aid me, I promise you the prospect of great power, more than you've ever dreamed of!

Briefing

Mission Acceptance
Excellent! Now, allow me to explain. Many years ago, I, along with several colleagues, created powerful obelisks. They were infused with the ability to absorb the power of others. Naturally, this was rather... frowned upon.
Those who were against this slaughtered myself and my colleagues before we could even use the obelisks. We knew of their plot and attempted to hide the obelisks. In my dying moments, they claimed to have destroyed them all.
However, I know of at least one that remains! I believe the unearthing of this obelisk is what stirred my spirit to life. It is in possession of the Oranbegans, the Circle of Thorns. I do not know how they intend to use it, but I will not have those fools trifle with my magics!
The lair where they keep this obelisk is within Paragon City. Go there and find the obelisk, and use their magics to transport it back here. Then, you and I shall finally put this obelisk to use!
Unnecessary Solicitation
Hurry! My entire life went into the creation of that obelisk, I cannot lose it now!
Mission Objective(s)
You see bodies of mages strewn across the floor. It looks like someone else is aware of this obelisk.
- Retrieve Alastor's Obelisk
- Find the Obelisk
- Speak with Kal'Mant
- Get out of the caverns before they collapse! - 2:00
You discovered that the obelisk was stolen by the Lost and the Igneous!
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Kal'Mant
Character, I can only assume that you were here for the obelisk. You are too late; the Lost have taken the obelisk, with the help of the Igneous!
They are creatures of rock, of the earth. That is how the Lost were able to attack us - they literally burst through the ground!
- Do you know where they went?
I can only assume they've gone somewhere underground. The Igneous closed the passageway behind them.
They could be miles beneath Skyway City by now, and they have taken the components to complete our ritual!
From what I've heard, they plan on stealing Synapse's powers and then use the obelisk to spread his power to all of the Lost!
- Hm, so you don't have the obelisk or the ritual anymore...
No, we do not. But if you can retrieve the obelisk... if you can stop the Igneous, then the Circle will be more than happy to share the power of the obelisk with you, and even reward you handsomely for its return!
There are not many left in this part of Oranbega, but I shall personally see to it that you are well rewarded. Do we have a deal, Character?
- No deal, I don't work for the Circle.
- If you will not work for us, then you will die like a dog!
- (Fight!)
- Alright, you've got a deal. I'll find the obelisk.
- Good, now we -
- Wait... What's that?!
- The caverns... they're collapsing. ...Run!
- ... Great.
If the character tells Kal'Mant that he or she doesn't work with the Circle, this clue is received:
You confronted the mage who had asked for your help deep within Oranbega.
You refused to work together with the Circle of Thorns, causing Kal'Mant to attack you!
If you chose to work with the Circle of Thorns, Kal'Man will appear as an allied boss in the final mission to fight along your side.
If the character tells Kal'Mant that he or she will work with the Circle, this clue is received:
You met the mage, Kal'Mant, who had asked for your help. You agreed to work together with the Circle of Thorns to retrieve the obelisk that was once theirs.
You found some left over scrolls from the Circle of Thorns!
You found some scrolls in a treasure chest within Oranbega. Most of them seemed fairly old, detailing ancient enemies of the Oranbegans. One, however, was new, as if it had been scribed a few days ago. It detailed a cult whose followers have 'eyes to look to the beyond' and 'they are to be considered eternal enemies of the Oranbegans'. There isn't much information regarding the cult, and unfortunately it doesn't seem like this cult had much to do with the current happenings.
Debriefing
What?! The Circle have lost my obelisk?! You say it was stolen by these rock people?! My life's work, taken in the night by some idiotic piles of rubble! This is all the fault of those plebians who believed that such an item would be devastating to wield.
They could not understand what it would mean for the world, that we would take the gods themselves off of their mighty seats of power! No longer would we have to bow down to anyone, the power would be in our hands!
The greatest regret of my after-life, aside from the fact that I was killed, of course, is that I never had the chance to see my life's work in action. All is not lost, however. We will simply track down these Igneous, retrieve the obelisk, and unleash its power on the world!
Part 2: Win One for the Villain
Briefing
Though I am as weak as the minds of those who slaughtered me, I still can feel a connection to the item that I spent my life working on. It is true that it is beneath what you all call 'Skyway City'. An interesting name, really, filled with the hubris of those who believe that such a name could reflect grand ideas.
But, I digress. It seems these 'Lost' have at least chosen an appropriate target for us. This Synapse, he is one of the Freedom Phalanx, correct? I believe they are the equivalent of the bloated gods of our time; rich in power and in stature, but no better than a commoner. I believe someone such as yourself would be better suited towards using his powers, eh?
- Maybe. Just tell me where in Skyway the obelisk is.
Ah, yes, the location. It should be deep beneath the bowels of Skyway City. Even now, I can feel it moving, getting farther from us. It is rather curious, why these monsters are working with the Lost. Not that I care one way or another. All I know is that they are absconding with my life's work, and I cannot allow that to happen!
You must hurry, before they make off with it completely!
Unnecessary Solicitation
I can feel it going farther, Character. You must move!
Mission Objective(s)
It seems there are PPD are already in the caverns, trying their best to handle the situation.
You'll have to act fast to prevent them from gaining the upper hand.
- Stop the Igneous from stealing the Obelisk
- Find someone who knows where the obelisk is
- 3 runes to activate for Alastor to teleport the PPD - 5:00
- PPD Squads will rush in every 30 seconds!
- Find someone who knows where the obelisk is
The obelisk is gone, but you've found out where the ritual will take place!
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- Reymthin (The Lost)
Ambush! You are ambushed by the Paragon Police Department every 30 seconds.
SWAT Officer: Freeze, Character!
Upon activating all three runes:
You defeated Reymthin and were able to get him to reveal information on the ritual...
'The Igneous will provide for us a grand stage for our ritual in the Hollows! Lava will flow from the tears in the earth, and then, we shall all ascend, become greater than we ever imagined!
We shall do our masters proud, with Synapse's power, we will serve them better than ever before, in ways they could never imagine.
The old rules said to never resort to magic, but we never understood why. Now, we know why to use the magic, the power it can bring. Our faith, our conviction is stronger than ever, they shall see!'
Debriefing
Agh! This is... this is infuriating! These idiots have no idea the work that went into this obelisk! Do they know how many nights I slaved away at creating the magical runes for it?! The years I spent travelling to search for the exact magical rituals to forge it?! No, but they believe just because they figured out how to use it that it is now theirs!
It is my obelisk, and I will NOT let this stand! But...
There is something we can do. Oh... oh yes, something indeed...
