Quest-Related Events

Azandar al-Cybiades experiments with his fateline has lead to some unintended consequences. After you have collected the Expunged Tomedust and Seeker Talon, you can meet with Azandar at the summoning site. You will find him shooing off a Frayed Fate:

Azandar: "Begone! My fateline is my own."

Frayed Fate: "Your life…is mine!"

<He then notices you.>

Azandar: "Did you hear …? Never mind. Welcome! This should be most illuminating!"

Scrying with his Fateweaver Key leads you to Fathoms Drift, where Azandar aims to find the frayed fate located there and bind it back into the fabric of the universe. When you arrive outside Fathoms Drift, Azandar have arrived and will be dispelling a Frayed Fate. Once he sees you Azandar calls you over:

Frayed Fate: "I live. It is my will."

Azandar: "Away, you pestering phantom!"

<The Frayed Fate gets dispelled.>

Azandar: "You're here! It's so pleasant to work with someone so prompt. And cunning!"

Following the Fate Threads lead you to the deck of a wrecked ship. You find one of the frayed fates of Azandar, with this one showing a world where Azandar became a sailor instead.

As the sailor complains about his lot, a ghostly red figure appears behind him:

Azandar (Sailor): "Bilge rats and stale bread. I'll never make it to first mate."

<The figure reaches out and appears to kill the other frayed fate and absorb his power.>

Frayed Fate: "Ahhh. Such potential. Stronger now."

Azandar: "Twitching tentacles, what is that?"

Frayed Fate: "I grow … stronger."

<Azandar summons some runeforms.>

Azandar: "Quickly! Use the key! These runeforms should banish that thing."

Frayed Fate: "We will not be undone!"

Once you have used the key and banished the Frayed Fate, Azandar will be exhausted.

Azandar: "It worked. I wasn't sure it would!"
