Weary Guardian
Sarkoris was once a land of pious druids, a citadel of the Green Faith and the gods of nature. What remains of its former glory? Some crumbling stone walls and a half-crazed treant guardian — a pathetic sight. Could there be something of interest inside the decrepit shrine, or is the old stump guarding nothing but a hollow shell?
Objectives
- Pass the trialThis shrine used to contain a secret that could be revealed only to the worthiest of the Stag God's followers. What lies within now even its guardian cannot say. Who else but the Commander can unravel this mystery?
- Put an end to the stand-off between the guardian and the demonThe tree and the demon are each other's prisoners. The guardian of the trial will not release the uninvited guest, while the latter furiously gnaws on the former's roots, poisoning the old creature's mind with the venom of the Abyss. This stand-off can end only with the death of one of them.
- Claim the rewardThe bonds that bound the two enemies in agonizing captivity have been severed. One of them is dead now — so all that remains is to inform the other of the good news and claim the reward.
