Grave Consequences

Briefing

Your final task is at hand, Character. Dollface may appear to be-

Dr. Graves words fall upon deaf ears as the voice of Scirocco fills your head.

It is time, Character. It is my belief that by the time you find Dollface, Dr. Graves will have already made his escape.

I have been tracking Graves's recent movements - his base of operation appears to be a warehouse on the outskirts of Cap au Diable. Assemble your compatriots and ambush him there.

  • I'd best not fail, then.

You are again capable of hearing Dr. Graves.

What? Yes... this is true, Character. Failure is not an option. I am glad you appreciate the seriousness of this matter.

Dollface will be waiting for you. Proceed with the utmost caution.

Unnecessary Solicitation

+++ Missing Information +++

Mission Objective(s)

You've called in the ambush. You allies should be here somewhere. It's time to finish this.

  • Ambush Dr. Graves!
    • **Confront Dr. Graves
    • This definitely doesn't look good
    • Defeat Dr. Graves, Omnicore, and Zephyr!
    • Speak with Dr. Graves

You have taken command of Dr. Graves group. Hopefully your combined powers will be enough for the task ahead.

Briefing

Character... I would congratulate you, but my demise will be a blessing compared to what is in store for you.

  • You're not really in a good position to make threats, Graves.

For the first time since you've known him, you hear Dr. Graves laugh. It is not a sound you enjoy.

It is no threat, fool. It is a reality you have not yet been made aware of. There is so much you do not yet know, I almost pity you.

You are, quite simply, doomed.

  • Explain, then. I'm listening.

At this point I'm sure you believe that our vaunted benefactor does not exist, and that I have been running the contest myself.

On the first point, you were correct. No benefactor exists to offer you the power you were promised. I should think that would be fairly obvious by now.

However, I am most certainly not the ringleader of this little circus. I am merely a pawn... in her game.

Your suspicions have been misspent, Character. I was not the one you should have been wary of.

  • 'Her game'? Wait, you can't be serious...

Dr. Graves laughter devolves into sputtering and coughing.

Fool. Even after she has been revealed, you continue to underestimate Dollface. She... it is capable of horrors you have never dreamed of.

She started this contest to find a body, Character. Hers is deteriorating, and my surgical skills have their limits. Your reward for victory was to be eternal torment, trapped in a body you do not control.

Abandon all hope, Character. She is a being as ancient as these very Isles we stand upon. You have no chance of defeating her.

  • Perhaps not... at least, not alone.

Graves stares at you silently. You match his gaze without faltering.

I am not sure that even our combined efforts could defeat her, Character. However, she has already chosen your body for conquest.

As it stands now, I have nothing to lose. I either die here, by your hand, or die by hers. I believe Omnicore and Zephyr are in similar predicaments. If you wish me to stand with you against her - against that infernal terror - then I will do so.

  • Very well. But remember, Graves - I'm running the show from now on.

Grave's eyes flare with resentment, but he makes no protest.

As you wish, Character. We shall follow your lead.

...For now.

  • Good enough, Graves. Good enough.

Debriefing

Dr. Graves still bears the marks of your attacks. He has seen far better days.

Well, Character. You have established your authority over our little gathering. I assure you, I would be madly plotting against your life, if I was not keenly aware of how dangerous our situation has become.

We cannot afford to bicker over pecking order. Not if we are to stand against Dollface.
