Objectives
- We told Shadowheart that Viconia asked us to surrender her to the cult. We should return to Viconia and face her.
- We withheld the truth from Shadowheart about what Viconia has planned for her. We should return to Viconia with Shadowheart.
- We surrendered Shadowheart to Viconia. We are now in alliance with Viconia.
- We decided to not surrender Shadowheart to Viconia.
- We wiped out the Sharran cult before Shadowheart could be surrendered to them.
- We did not have the time to conclude matters with Viconia. We must press on.
Walkthrough
This quest begins during Investigate the House of Grief if Shadowheart was not taken along. If the party successfully persuaded or intimidated Viconia into not taking back the Artefact, she instead demands Shadowheart to be given to her for 'reeducation.'
At this point, the party can return to camp and speak to Shadowheart:
- I met your Mother Superior - she expects me to hand you over to her.
- I met your Mother Superior. She's willing to negotiate for your parents, if you come with me.
Regardless of the choice, Shadowheart says she must confront Viconia. Return to the House of Grief with Shadowheart in the party. Viconia tells the party to make good on their deal:
- She's all yours.
- Never
If the first choice is selected, the Sharrans takes Shadowheart away and she will permanently leave the party. Viconia thanks the party and commits to helping in the final battle against the Absolute.
Quest Rewards
- If Shadowheart is given over to the cultists, Viconia and her Sharran subjects become allies in the fight against the Absolute and be added to the list of allies in Gather Your Allies.
Notes
- Attempting to enter the Threshold of Loss door instantly causes Viconia and the cultists to become hostile.
