Dialogue[edit]
That was before the Ring of Blood proved Aturach to be more powerful than I conceived. Now, thanks to your little Seeker, I understand the source of that power.
The Reaver King isn't hiding in the Heart of the Woods. He is feeding on its power, just as he seeks to steal the light from your Beacon and the shadows from Gloom.
The Heart of the Woods is an ancient force, a spirit older than your Architects. We must learn how Aturach has it chained and find a way to break this vile connection.
In the Heart you will find large stone pillars that mark the ley lines of power flowing through our sacred land. Aturach is likely using them to channel his foul magic.
Once you find the pillars, I can study their energies through our connection. More so, I have woven a thread into your essence that should hide you from the King's eyes and spies.
‘Should'?
Only death is certain, little Echo. Seek the pillars. The King's foul minions will hunt you… but if my enchantment holds, Aturach will not know who you truly are.
This sacred place is so fouled with your Gloom... I can barely sense the essence of the Heart. Find the pillars, quickly.
There it is. But it's so faint, and there's... Shadow flowing through it? Follow the line! Now!
In my arrogance, I thought I was beyond the grip of terror. I felt no fear when Aturach sought my death. But this... what you have discovered fills me with dread and despair.
The Heart is one of the pillars of our world, far older than your Architects. Its essence is both growth and rot, both birth and venom…
Avala called it Flora?
Do not interrupt me again. The lines you studied are the veins of our world, carrying that power across the land. The blood of the natural world, sustaining all things.
Now those veins are choked with the essence of your Gloom. This is the source of these foul Hollows—nature twisted and consumed from within, infused with vile shadows.
How could this happen? Twisting the veins of the earth—Aturach could never have done this alone. We must learn what has been done to the Heart. Unfortunately, there's only one way to do that.
