Follow-up Text

The Netherim, the Alchemist, and this plague are all connected. Everywhere the Alchemist goes, Ordrak's Heart taints the nature of magic itself. It creates a kind of infection ... not too dissimilar from Ember Blight. These tiny infections grow, and, eventually, develop into a conduit for Netherim. The victim becomes a host the Netherm: a "Nether-Thrall."

This is what happened to the Estherians. And, for some reason, the effect was stronger with the Grand Regent. Perhaps he was exposed more directly when he battled the Alchemist. In any case, the thing that possessed the Regent, the thing that attempted to possess me, is more powerful than the others: it is a Nether-Beast ... one of the Netherim Kings who led the invasion of our world an age ago. I am sure it will return, seeking vengeance.

Journal Entry

Report to the Vanquisher at the Estherian Enclave.

The story so far...
The mystery plague that was converting Estherians into Nether-Thralls had a much more devastating effect on Grand Regent Eldrayn. The once-noble Estherian statesman had been completely possessed by one of the dreaded Netherim ... and the thing would have possessed the Guardian of the Wild, if you hadn't stopped it!

Meanwhile, the Alchemist has been attacking Guardians in order to siphon off their elemental energies and empower Ordrak's Heart ... with his ultimate goal apparently to destroy the fabled Clockwork Core and throw wide the gates to the nightmare realm of the Netherim!

Completed Text

I don't know if the Alchemist understands that Ordrak's Heart is wreaking such havoc ... or if he just doesn't care! I hope there's still a chance to stop him, one way or another, before it's too late.

So the Guardian wants you to head to the Ossean Wastes? You know what? I think I can help you with that ...
