Act 2 — The Ossuary of Forgotten Swords

Act 2 Overview

With the Thornwick tear sealed, Sister Mirela reveals the next phase of her research: a second tear has opened beneath the Ossuary of Forgotten Swords, a mass grave from the Shining Crusade. But this tear is different — it doesn't leak echoes. It consumes them. Something in the ossuary is eating souls.

The heroes must:

  1. Navigate the ossuary, a dungeon of bone and rusted steel where the dead were buried with their weapons.
  2. Survive the Soul-Hunger — a creature born from the tear that feeds on psychic energy.
  3. Discover the Veilbreaker's handiwork — a cult of desperate villagers who believe the Veilbreaker is a "liberator."
  4. Recover the second shard and learn the location of the third tear: the Threshold of Souls itself.

Expected Duration: 3-4 sessions. Target Level: 4.
