Titan's Questline

This questline involves the player meeting Titan, a boar that lives alone in the northern forest of Dormaus. Warning that the page ahead contains certain spoilers for the questline.

## An Impossible Fight

*"Something found you"*

To begin this quest and encounter with Titan, the player must first face the Glatisant, which will appear if the player spends too much time hunting in the woods north of Dormaus. Once found, the player must fail in their attempt to escape the Glatisant. Doing so will push the Pain attribute to 4, forcing them to play the "Overwhelmed by Wounds" event, where the player will be rescued and introduced to Titan, progressing their Connection Attribute with Titan to 1 and reducing their Pain Attribute to 1. After this quest, Titan's Cottage can be accessed through the Dormaus World Map.

## Bonding

To progress Titan's questline, the player must first return to Titan's Cottage with an Ice Cream Pie in their inventory, which can be obtained at the Silk Market in Makarna for 10 Watervine. Having the ice cream allows one to play the event "Bring Titan Ice Cream", where, after walking into Titan playing tea party with his own stuffed toys, the player shares the ice cream pie with Titan, while he reveals a little more about his life in the woods, and ask for the player's help in overcoming his timid nature by allowing him to turn them into a toy for practice. Finishing this event progresses the player's Connection Attribute with Titan to 2 and subtracts one Ice Cream Pie from their inventory.

## Become a Toy

After sharing the Ice Cream Pie, the Player can take up on Titan's offer to become a toy, doing so will transform the player into a wooden puppet, where Titan wil take care of them for the rest of the day and play along with them on a tea party setting. The transformation will reverse and allow the Player to leave, but not before noticing an eerie lantern inside Titan's home. Finishing this event progresses the player's Connection Attribute with Titan to 3

## A Grim Discovery

After the puppet transformation event, the player can take his discovery to Saberhagen in Dormaus in the event "Show the lantern to Saberhagen" to find any clues of what it might be. Saberhagen won't know anything, but his brother Ritter will intervene, and reveal the nature of the player's findings, revealing Titan has been probably trying to commune with the dead, that such thing doesn't work and that it might actually bring worse things to him. Finishing this event progresses the player's Connection Attribute with Titan to 4

## Facing an old Evil

*"The cottage is silent when you return. The windows are shuttered, the door is firmly closed. The air in the clearing, which is normally warm and sunny, has an icy bite to it."*

After finishing the previous event, returning to Titan's Cottage will lock out most interaction events the player could have with him, leaving only the event "Titan in Danger" to be played. This is an interactive event, in which you will be facing an evil spirit that Titan ended up calling to him, which is revealed to be the soul of the Dracolich. The Dracolich will reveal Titan's noble bloodline, and offer the player to step back and let him possess Titan and make the player his servant. If the player accepts the offer, it will immediately lead to the questline's bad end. Refusing his offer will cause the dracolich to attempt to control the player by force, though the player may resist, either on their own, which will require an Intelligence check, or with the use of a memory or item the player may have acquired in their journey. Successfully resisting the Dracolich will push the player to a fight against him. You have four options to fight the lich, each one corresponding to a stat check from one of each stat, with the player needing to succeed two of them to defeat him. Once the Dracolich is defeated, the player can finally check on Titan. Finishing this event progresses the player's Connection Attribute with Titan to 5 If Titan was rescued.

## "Titan's Thanks"

*"Titan is gripping his overcoat tightly up against his throat when you enter the cottage today. He stammers and blushes a little, his cheeks pink and his ears flopped down. "Could we talk a little?", he asks."*

The event "Titan's Thanks" is only available if the player has rescued Titan from the Dracolich in the previous event, and acts as the last event in the good ending of the Quest Route. Titan willl thank you for your help, apologise for what he tried to do, and ask from one last favor from the player. Once the event ends, the Player will receive a Rose of Muscard from Titan as a gift, which can be given to King Gareth to finish his questline.

## An Evil Return

Letting the bad ending of the questline happen results in the Dracolich merging with Titan, corrupting him, and putting the Player as his servant. This locks all other normal interactions with Titan, and opens a new event "After Five Hundred Years, I'm Free!", where you and the Dracolich prepare to leave and conquer Dormaus, only to find out that the Dracolich can't leave the forest, due to a Remnant of the king binding him to the forest.
