Involvement[edit | edit source]
Act One[edit | edit source]
Arka is initially seen fighting on the Emerald Grove ramparts when the goblin party chase Aradin, Barth, and Remira to the front gates of the Grove. Her brother, Kanon, is mortally shot by Goblin arrows while attempting to open the gate. After the conflict ends, she remains at her brother's corpse while her friend Memnos attempts to console her. Regardless of what the player character says or if they leave the area, Arka will grab a nearby crossbow and run toward the imprisoned goblin Sazza to enact vengeance.
The party can convince Arka to take or spare Sazza's life. If Arka does not take revenge on Sazza, she can be found mourning with Memnos near Kanon's grave after the defeat of the goblins in the Goblin Camp. If she kills Sazza, her body can be found at X: -44 Y: 408, just east of the Goblin Camp.
If the party travel to the Mountain Pass or Shadow-Cursed Lands before resolving Kagha's ritual the Rite of Thorns, the Tieflings will be expelled from the Emerald Grove and Arka's corpse can be found among the pile of refugees near the bridge to the Blighted Village.
In the event that Minthara and her raiding party is primed to assault the Emerald Grove, Arka will be among the first line of defence atop the gate, alongside Asharak, Elegis, and Zevlor. If Minthara's raiding party has been culled at the gate Arka and Memnos will also move to Kanon's grave, the former saying that he has been avenged, and the latter mentioning that Kanon would be proud of her. If Arka perished during the assault on the grove but Memnos survived, Memnos will bury Arka next to Kanon's grave, telling her that Kanon will be waiting for her.[1]
