## Dialogue

The Last Imperial

Ahhh, a living human that isn't dripping with that foul Void. Can you understand me, or are you as mad as the rest of them? I can understand you.

Ahhh splendid, you will be able to hear my request then. I want you to kill me. Kill you?

Yes, I've been entombed down here for centuries and let me tell you, they have been rather dull. I never thought I would want to discard the Immortal Emperor's gift like this, but here I am, pleading for aid from one of the living. Will you kill me? How did you end up like this?

Fear. I gathered all the harvested souls I could and piled ward after ward around myself. The Void crazed wretches and beasts found their way in here, but the lost interest once they saw how impervious I am. I am safe here... but I am done with this life. Immortal Emperor's gift?

Hahaaa, have the living already forgotten about the Immortal Empire? Well, seeing how quickly it all came crashing down once the Void swept over the world, I can not blame you. Immortality. A divine gift liberated by the Emperor's might and spread to all of his loyal. We were so strong then, and now I fear I am all that is left...File:QuestionMarkIcon.png I will kill you if you give me your phylactery.

Ahhh, how greedy! I accept your terms, living one.

My wards have kept the beasts and brutes that swarm Welryn away, but they must be dispelled if I am to die. I've hidden three Soul Repositories down here with me, and as long as they are intact, my wards are impervious. Destroy the Soul Repositories and return to me.File:QuestionMarkIcon.png Accept.
 Goodbye.

The Last Imperial

The three Soul Repositories are hidden down here with me. Once you have destroyed them, return to me. Goodbye.

The Last Imperial

Ahhh, you have returned.File:QuestionMarkIcon.png What now?

I can sense that the Soul Repositories have been destroyed, excellent work. I wish I could grace you with the Emperor's gift and the riches of conquered gods, alas that time has long passed, and all I have to offer is the phyalcery binding me to this world. Now... I recommend you stand back, tearing it from this body may prove... volatile.File:QuestionMarkIcon.png What do you mean vola-
 Goodbye.
