==Notes==
Speak with the projection again:
:When you are ready, we shall attack. The dredgers here will operate the mirror to deter reinforcements from Castle Nathria while you, myself, and our few remaining allies do a push assault Denathrius directly.
:It is down to a Maw Walker, three Harvesters, the former general of the Stone Legion, and what few venthyr stand by our side as we take the fight to the being who created all you see before you.
:Let me know when you are ready to face death.
:
A cutscene plays:
:On either side, Rendle and Cudgelface direct the large mirror to face toward the Castle Nathria entrance, combusting all venthyr in the light's path to ash. The camera then shows the rest of the Sinfall gang as they rush forward with the player close behind to join Renathal in the Court of Harvesters.

*Sire Denathrius confronted 
Get to the center of the area and speak with Renathal:
:Can you feel it? The shift in order? Something is happening. We must move swiftly!
:Three Harvesters and a Maw Walker infused by the raw power of anima from the many realms of the Shadowlands against one lord of death, whose dominion we stand upon the precipice of.
:Let us face this dread together!
:
A cinematic plays, "Remember This Lesson":
:Renathal and the two remaining members of his rebellion make a charge on Denathrius. The two followers get picked off one after the other as Stoneborn swoop in from above. Another Stoneborn comes for Renathal, but he slices his sword Vorpalia into the gargoyle and cuts through it's midsection. Noting the anima attached to his sword, he takes up a stance and yells.
:
:Deigning to notice Renathal as he runs across the bridge to him, Denathrius turns from looking at the Maw, stares at Renathal for a moment, then turns his eyes upward. Remornia acts like a one-sword Gate of Babylon, launching attack after attack on Renathal. As Denathrius smirks, Renathal prepares to launch a final blow, but runs out of stamina and falls to his knees before him.
:
:Remonia sheathes herself on Denathrius's back as Renathal gasps, then suddenly Denathrius chokes Renathal, lifting him off the ground by his neck.
:
:Denathrius enunciates every word.
:
:
:The various anima containers in the area activate.
:
:Still walking with Renathal's neck in the palm of his hand, scenes of various stoneborn getting siphoned of their anima and returning to their stone state play out.
:
:
:
:
:Denathrius squeezes harder on Renathal's neck, choking off his rebuttal.
:
:As Denathrius finishes his command, the anima containers slam closed, and the collected anima starts pouring into the Maw, changing the dominant color from yellow to red, destroying the outskirts of Castle Nathria in the process. Renathal inhaling weakly, Denathrius unceremoniously drops him on the ground, gives his final order, and teleports away.
:
: Renathal reaches out towards the Maw, and collapses.
===Finale===
On the other side of the cutscene, Renathal, the Accuser, the Curator, and General Draven are looking off the north end of Castle Nathria at an enormous torrent of anima getting funneled into the Maw. You awake being Drained.
This concludes the Revendreth storyline, awarding the achievement The Master of Revendreth.
Renathal continues the Shadowlands campaign with The End of the Beginning.
