Wishing All the Best - Tautology (Week 2)

Location: Spirit’s Anchor, The Dreaming City

Petra Venj: The Techeuns’ calculations look promising so far. The next egg should be close. Be cautious. The Taken have already gained a foothold here.

Riven: They spread their influence with mindless fervor— much like Awoken royalty.

The Guardian enters the portal.

Location: Fetid Conduit, Riven’s Lair

Riven: Wrath of the Queen, this is not your fight. Somewhere out there, a pack of doomed corsairs waits for you.

Petra Venj: I'll be there. They know, I'll always be there.

Riven: You want to help them. You would do anything.

Petra Venj: I will. Without you.

The Guardian lights the torches and exits the portal.

Location: Temple of the Queen’s Wrath, Riven’s Lair

Mara Sov: Absent a commanding will, the Taken return to more… basic directives. Their corruption may reshape these halls. Deal with them, before the path collapses around us.

The Guardian enters the portal.

Location: Splintered Geode, Riven's Lair

Mara Sov: You set obstacles in our path, mock our efforts — all while we seek to save your eggs. Is gloating over the ruin you made of our home worth losing them forever?

Riven: You set the snare, then complain that I refuse to lay my neck within it. To beg and weep for what you desire — that is not in me.

The Guardian enters the portal.

Location: Lararium, Riven’s Lair

Mara Sov: That beast is a nexus of corruption. Such a high concentration of energy will destabilize the Ley Lines. Destroy it, or our efforts end here.

The Guardian defeats Ungoloth and takes the egg.

Petra Venj: Another egg secured. Well done, Guardian.

Mara Sov: The Taken aren't the only creatures attempting to thwart us. Riven seeks to entangle us in another loop — to keep us chasing down her clutch while the Witness runs rampant.

Riven: If this is a game, it suits your purposes. Sealing the eggs away, buying time for your broken Warlock to cheat me. You have my terms. See this through, or make peace with your fate.
