Legends:Swims-at-Night (quest)

Chapter 8: Swims-at-Night[edit]

Swims-at-Night is the eighth chapter of Legends, and the last battle of Act 1. When pursuing Laaneth and her kidnappers, you and Tyr decide that you need a ship.

This is the first match where your opponent's deck is in a random order and can be much more unpredictable than previous matches. Swims-at-Night uses some creatures with a high magicka cost which can be hard to deal with while you have a small collection. As his deck has few prophecies, an aggro playstyle is recommended with the basic Band of Survivors deck.

During the fight with Swims-at-Night, Dominion Guards appear, resulting in the Argonian smuggler joining you as you've now found a common enemy.

Dialogue[edit]

Pre-Match

Kellen: "The cultists kidnapped the sorceress Laaneth, and had taken her north. They would use her to help them bring about a dread prophecy known as The Culling."

Tyr: "I don't like it any more than you do. But we need a ship to chase the cultists and we don't have any coin. Besides, this ship belongs to smugglers, and I have it on good authority that—"

Swims-at-Night: "Intruders!"

Tyr: "... That they're not here tonight."

During the Match

Tyr: "The poison on some of their blades looks deadly. Let's try to avoid them."

Post-match

Swims-at-Night: "Who sent you?! You don't look like --"

Dominion Guard: "Hey! What's going on up there?"

Swims-at-Night: "Dominion Guards!"

Kellen: "The Argonian and the hero realized they had a common enemy. The smuggler, who was called Swims-at-Night, agreed to sail north in search of the sorceress."

Swims-at-Night: Dominion Guards!
Kellen tells Isha how the hero escaped.
