Soul's Mirage
Get lost in the desert, and encounter some interesting dreams from your past.
Area	Goal		Quests & Cinematics
Havilar:	What's going on?
Freely:	Where are we?
Nayeli:	Are those geese?
Calliope:	Whoa, Nayeli, I like the new look.
1	Defeat 25 Enemies		Uh, this is weird - but those geese want to make us deaders, so get fighting!
Wren:	Does anyone remember how we got here?
Orkira:	Yeah, we... wait... no? Everything feels hazy.
Havilar:	Uh, are those... red pandas in top hats riding unicycles?!
Freely:	Uh oh, they don't look happy!
2	Defeat 25 Enemies		Those geese have teamed up with fancy red pandas! Don't stop fighting!
3	Collect 25 Feathers		Pick up some of those geese feathers - maybe they have a magical clue about what's happening!
Calliope:	Look! The geese are coming from that alleyway! Maybe whoever is doing this is down there.
Nayeli:	Let's check it out!
4	Defeat 25 Enemies		Uh, this looks like a dead end. And we're going to be just as dead if you don't keep fighting!
Alabaster Bootyclap:	HAHA! I've finally trapped you!
Freely:	Who the heck are you?
Alabaster Bootyclap:	Your greatest of rivals! Alabaster Bootyclap! ...wait, that can't have been my name!
Havilar:	HAHA! That's your name?! That's hilarious!
Alabaster Bootyclap:	What? No! Shut up! I must be reading this wrong - oh, whatever! Let's fight!
5	Defeat the Alabaster Bootyclap		I don't know who this Alabaster Bootyclap guy is, but he wants a fight - so give 'em one!
Havilar:	Whoa, what's happening?
Orkira:	Everything is starting to blur!
Freely:	Uh, y'all? I don't feel so...
Wren:	[Gasps awake] What happened?
Calliope:	We're back!
Nayeli:	Back? Back from where? We were just sleeping.
Orkira:	Did you have a strange dream about fighting geese and red pandas?
Nayeli:	Uh... yeah, I did... How did we all have the same dream?
Freely:	Are we sure it was a dream?
6	Defeat 25 Enemies		Looks like the Walking Castle is connecting with Flowering Hill! Take out these wood woads!
7	Defeat 25 Enemies		Oh, giant caterpillars - gross! I'm not afraid of them; just give me the creeps. Yes, a skull can get the creeps!
Orkira:	If someone is messing with us, they're probably nearby. We should search the room and see what we can find.
8	Collect 25 Bark		Grab me some of that bark. What? It makes for a good adventuring snack.
9	Defeat 25 Enemies		The critters of Flowering Hill aren't giving up!
10	Defeat the Tri-Flower Frond		Uh, that tri-flower frond is looking at me in ways I am uncomfortable with. Turn that weed into mulch!
Nayeli:	Hey, do you all feel...
Orkira:	Incredibly... tired...?
Bel:	Such spirit. All the pride of the mortal realm! All your hunger for power and glory. See how far this passion to do good drives you! And understand the boon I give you, by giving you something to fight for.
Nayeli:	You can dispense with any 'there'd be no good without evil' claptrap, devil. I've heard it before, and it means even less coming from one such as you.
Nayeli:	...what am I saying?
Bel:	Oh! Your words wound me, paladin. Or at least they would if not for your hypocrisy. You speak of good, but do the bidding of the Dragon Queen? How delicious.
Freely:	Uh, Nayeli, what's going on?
Nayeli:	I don't know! I don't know why I'm saying these things!
11	Defeat 25 Enemies		Does anyone remember how we - oh, never mind! Make those fiends into deaders!
Orkira:	Wait! I remember! This is a dream! We're all dreaming!
Havilar:	I feel like I would know if I was dreaming.
Freely:	Uh, I don't think that's how dreaming works.
Wren:	If we're all dreaming - why are we dreaming together, and why has it put us here?
12	Defeat 25 Enemies		Fiends are pouring in! Dig in and fight!
13	Collect 25 Bearded Devil Tentacles		I know I'm always talking about snacks - but bearded devil tentacles are SO GOOD! Grab some!
Bel:	Still impressive! What would it take to force the Champions to surrender, I wonder. How much suffering can you withstand before you break?
Nayeli:	Many more powerful than you have wondered that, devil. And it turned out to be their last thought before the end.
Bel:	More powerful than me? Clearly, you underestimate my power, Nayeli.
Orkira:	Wait, he said Nayeli... Is... is this from Nayeli's past?
14	Defeat 25 Enemies		More abishai! Don't get made into deaders! Make 'em deaders first!
Bel:	So here. Let me show you what you face today!
Nayeli:	Something tells me I've defeated you before, and I'll do it again!
15	Defeat the Bel		You heard Nayeli! Get to the defeating!
Nayeli:	[Gasps awake] They're memories. They're from before all this happened.
Freely:	But wasn't remembering stuff supposed to make our heads explode?
Nayeli:	It must not be enough. I still don't know anything about myself other than that I faced down a big devil once.
Somnus:	[Appears] Oh rats, I was really hoping it would take you longer to figure it out. Guess I played my role too well.
16	Defeat 25 Enemies		Who the hells is this guy? While you figure that out, trim these vegepygmies down to size.
Havilar:	I repeat what the skull said - who the hells are you?
Somnus:	Just a traveler of the planes with a unique appetite.
Wren:	So, you're going to eat us?
Somnus:	What? No! Don't be so gauche. My tastes are more refined.
Freely:	...so what is it? You know what, I don't care anymore. Are you the one that's making us have weird dreams?
Somnus:	Hehehe! [Vanishes]
Havilar:	All right, first I was annoyed - now I'm irritated.
17	Defeat 25 Enemies		Hey Havilar - let that out that irritation on these walking shrubs!
18	Collect 25 Wildflowers		Hey, maybe pick up some of these wildflowers to make you all feel better? It could work! You don’t know!
Wren:	So, what do we do?
Nayeli:	He has to be the one making us share dreams. What we need to know is why so we can form a better plan.
Wren:	So far, we've fought a devil you seemed to have fought before and... a wizard with a weird name.
Nayeli:	Right, well, I guess we need more information than that.
19	Defeat 25 Enemies		Don't worry - I'm sure we're going to get put back asleep any moment! Before that, though, take out these plants!
20	Defeat the Shambling Mound		A shambling mound! Defeat it before it overgrows the whole castle!
Freely:	I'm starting to feel weird again!
Wren:	Everyone focus and hold on!
Orkira:	We're dreaming again - everyone all right?
Freely:	Huh? What? Oh, right! Wow, where are we now?
Wren:	I'm not sure, but there are A LOT of undead!
21	Defeat 25 Enemies		Deaders want to make you dead! Don't let 'em!
22	Defeat 25 Enemies		More undead! Send these deaders back to their graves!
23	Collect 25 Green Flames		Pick up some of that green flame - maybe Orkira can figure out what's up with it!
Havilar:	It looks like this is where they're coming from. There has to be a way to stop them!
Wren:	It looks like it's never-ending...
24	Defeat 25 Enemies		How am I the optimist here? Clear out these undead! Come on!
Calliope:	Look out! A zombie wizard is coming this way!
Nayeli:	Hold the line! We can do this!
25	Defeat the Green Flame Zombie Wizard		You all better do something quick! That zombie wizard is going to make us lunch! ...Well, just you, I'm a skull - but still!
Orkira:	Hey, Freely, I got an idea.
Freely:	You read my mind. On the count of three, we'll cast Turn Undead! One!
Orkira:	Two!
Freely:	THREE!
Somnus:	[Appears] Ah yes, that's the good stuff right there. A double helping as well!
Wren:	Wait, you want us to survive?
Somnus:	Of course I do! I'm not some kind of malevolent ghoul! I only want you to enjoy things you've enjoyed before.
Calliope:	We ENJOYED this stuff?!
Somnus:	Well, maybe enjoyed is the wrong word. Regardless - you all are doing great. Keep up the good work! [Vanishes]
26	Defeat 25 Enemies		Why are we changing rooms? Are we sleepwalking? Well, sleepwalk your way into making those woads some deaders!
27	Defeat 25 Enemies		That was... unexpected. Better distract yourself with some combat before you get too confused.
28	Collect 25 Mushrooms		Oh! Mushrooms! No, they're not for eating! You throw them at people - grab as many as you can!
Calliope:	He said he wanted us to enjoy things we had enjoyed before - why would he want that?
Morte:	Some entities feed off of emotions. Maybe that's what he's doing.
Wren:	So, he's making us relive deadly fights to feed off our enjoyment of that?
Nayeli:	Our victories - that's what this is about. These are times when we overcame the odds and snatched victory from the jaws of defeat.
Wren:	Let's test that with the next dream.
29	Defeat 25 Enemies		Keep chopping away at these shrubs until the dreams come back! ...There's a sentence no one has said before.
30	Defeat the Dryad		Defeat that dryad - and do it fast!
Havilar:	Whoa, where are we now?
Nayeli:	Looks to be some sort of dragon's lair.
Orkira:	Ugh.
Freely:	Doesn't that mean there should be some good treasure around here?
Wren:	I don't think we can take things out of the dream.
Freely:	Okay, uh, do you know that for sure?
31	Defeat 25 Enemies		Purple wormlings? In a dragon's lair? That seems... specific...
Wren:	If these dreams really are some of our memories, whose memory is whose?
Nayeli:	I think it's easy to guess mine was with the fiend.
Orkira:	I don't know about Freely, but it felt like I was supposed to cast that Turn Undead.
Freely:	Ditto.
Havilar:	I want to claim the Alabaster Bootyclap one!
Wren:	I don't think that's how this works.
Havilar:	Well, I feel like I could have stayed there for, easily, three more hours just making fun of him.
32	Defeat 25 Enemies		Whoa! Are those dragon cultists? I haven't seen those in a long time! Well, make some deaders out of 'em!
Iymrith:	Your forces are weak. I will devour your airships and digest your soldiers slowly and painfully.
Calliope:	Not if we kick your butt first! We've got Force Grey, Giants, the Knights of - Hey I think this might be my memory!
Iymrith:	Fools, all of you! Kill them!
33	Defeat 1 Magic Field		You handle the cultists - I'm gonna hide behind this pillar.
34	Defeat 25 Enemies		Sounds like a big battle is happening up top! Clear these enemies so we can get out of here!
Iymrith:	I was so close to getting my revenge and taking back what was mine! You adventurers ruined everything!
Calliope:	It is what we do best - especially for big, nasty dragons!
Iymrith:	DIE!
35	Defeat the Iymrith, Doom of the Desert		This may be a dream, but don't get devoured all the same! Defeat Iymrith!
Somnus:	Another GLORIOUS victory! I applaud you, Champions. [Tiny claps]
Havilar:	Something still doesn't feel right about this. If you're not a bad guy, why didn't you just ask us to relive these memories?
Somnus:	Oh, where's the fun in that? You're adventurers! Good stories are what make up your backstories. Think of this as a backstory in progress.
36	Defeat 25 Enemies		Enough talking - those vines want to assassinate you!
37	Defeat 25 Enemies		Has anyone else noticed we keep moving rooms? Oh well, keep fighting!
Orkira:	Can you at least tell us a bit about yourself?
Somnus:	I suppose there's nothing wrong with that. My name is Somnus. I am a shadar-kai - yes, that does mean I hail from the Shadowfell. But that was a long, long time ago.
Morte:	Aren't shadar-kai usually into, like, pain and suffering?
Somnus:	The uncouth ones are. I enjoy a much broader spectrum of emotions. Besides, normal shadar-kai don't feed off of emotions as I do.
Morte:	And you don't feed off of pain and suffering?
Somnus:	...Not today.
38	Collect 25 Tangled Vines		I don't know about this guy. But I do know I need a snack - grab me some of those vines!
39	Defeat 25 Enemies		More Flowering Hill creatures! Give 'em a good trimming!
40	Defeat the Treant		How did a treant fit in here?! Chop 'em down!
Somnus:	Alas, we have come to our final memory. And I saved the tastiest for last. Are you ready, Wren?
Wren:	This is going to be my memory?
Somnus:	Oh yes. And you VERY much enjoyed it.
Mysterious Figure:	Is your task clear?
Wren:	Clear as crystal. Is the target in place?
Mysterious Figure:	My eyes in the city have just now confirmed it.
Wren:	Then I won't waste any time. The task is as good as done.
41	Defeat 25 Enemies		Uh, that was weird. Did anyone see who Wren was talking to - AH! Cakers! Get fighting!
Nayeli:	Wren, who was that person?
Wren:	I... I don't know. They were wreathed in shadows...
Nayeli:	Strange. But we should probably keep moving. Best to get through this dream and out of whatever Somnus is up to.
42	Defeat 25 Enemies		Cranium rats and cakers - gross! Get rid of 'em!
43	Collect 25 Rat Tails		Okay, but don't get rid of the rat tails - those are good. Yeah, I'm just owning it now. I eat weird stuff!
Havilar:	Morte, do you even need to eat?
Morte:	What a silly question!
Havilar:	...That's not an answer.
Harmonium Peacekeeper:	There! The assassin! Stop him!
Calliope:	Assassin?
Wren:	Fools! Get out of my way!
Vensin:	Do something! He's going to kill me!
44	Defeat 25 Enemies		Uh, fight the Harmonium? I guess? I don't really know who the good guys are here.
Wren:	What... what's happening?
Vensin:	Please! Please don't kill me! I have a family! I'll give you whatever you want!
Wren:	I... got joy out of this?
Somnus:	SO MUCH joy. Now, come on, kill this pathetic man, and let me drink in the joy!
Wren:	No.
Somnus:	What?
Wren:	I said no! This is NOT who I am!
Somnus:	But it is who you were - see!
Corvus:	I am Corvus, master assassin of Sigil. My name is feared in all corners of the City of Doors, and I take pleasure from every ounce of that fear.
Wren:	No! NO! That's not who I am! That's... [Clutches head] Ow, no - no, that's not true! I... AH!
Havilar:	Wren, are you -
Wren:	It's my head! I can't - AHHHHH! [Collapses]
Havilar:	WREN!
Corvus:	You're in my way. Allow me to show you what happens to people who get in my way!
45	Defeat the Corvus		Whoa... Wren's a deader... Come on, make this dream villain a bigger deader!
Nayeli:	Wren, are you...
Havilar:	She's gone... It looks like Mrs. Fox was right about remembering our past selves...
Nayeli:	SOMNUS! Show yourself! You'll pay for this!
Calliope:	What? Where are we now?
Orkira:	I remember! The Walking Castle came to a stop in the desert, and we couldn't figure out why. So we came out here to look around and see what was stopping it.
Calliope:	So, ALL of that was a dream?!
Somnus:	You rapscallions really know how to mess things up - you know that?! I didn't even get to take your memories!
Havilar:	So, that was your plan. Enjoy us reliving our memories and then take them for yourself to enjoy later.
Somnus:	Yes, yes! You figured it out; good for you! [Vanishes]
46	Defeat 25 Enemies		Uh, are these pink elephants natural to the Outlands? Better fight 'em!
47	Defeat 25 Enemies		These creatures sure are... something. But they want to hurt you, so make 'em deaders!
48	Collect 25 Dream Essence		Those creatures are made out of dreams! Get some of their essence!
Somnus:	[Appears] Not so fast! You're not getting away that easily. You all are going to pay for the inconvenience I've been dealt today!
Somnus:	Welcome! To my domain! I've decided I won't take just one joyful memory from you. I'll take them all!
49	Defeat 25 Enemies		This can't be good! Fight your way out!
Havilar:	You're finished, Somnus! Ahhh!
Somnus:	You know, I should really be at my best before this fight. I'll be taking that life energy of yours, Havilar. [Waves his hand]
Havilar:	[Collapses]
Orkira:	Havilar!
Somnus:	Now, let's see how you fare against my full power!
50	Defeat the Somnus		Powers above, this guy's killed two of our friends! Return the favor!
Nayeli:	Give up, Somnus! It's over!
Somnus:	I say - you all are much more powerful than I anticipated. But that's good. It means you'll have even better memories for me the next time we meet. Ta-ta for now!
