Choices and Consequences

As you progress through the game you'll need to make a couple of choices. These mainly influence what you'll see when beginning the siege of the shadow spire in Chapter 7. Each choice also unlocks a costume for Evelia upon speaking to the relevant person and a Lyric Only item. The choices made will also affect what decorations appear in Lyric's room at the Lost Lady Inn.

The choices you make also influence the ending. Check this guide for more details.

## The Oksae

After you defeat the Merchant in the Entertainment District you'll need to decide who you'll give the Oksae to. This Also influences the quest where you need to acquire shadow humor in a later chapter.

This choice affects what decorations appear on Lyric's board at the back of here room the left photo above her bed and what appears on the left of the mantle.

### Give the Oksae to Gerrard at the Ghost Bazaar

If you give the Oksae to Gerrard, Manduk the merchant will grant you access to 2 crates which contain healing items. These crates respawn every time you revisit the Ghost Bazaar. this choice also unlocks the Wrathveil costume.

If you gave the Oksae to Gerrard and you are on the shadow humor quest, Maru Han will refuse to give you the item, forcing you to go to the Ghost Bazaar to finish the quest.

In the short cutscene in Chapter 7 Gerrard will bring Norton the warden and other sober wraiths to help in the siege of the shadow spire.

### Give the Oksae to Maru Han at the Foxier Market

If you give the Oksae to Maru Han you'll recieve the Asadali Garb costume upon entering your room at the Lost Lady Inn. If you are on the shadow humor quest Maru Han will happily part with his shadow humor when he hears lives are at stake.

In Chapter 4 you'll be given the Adamant Heart by Volsung to fullfill his long-standing desire to be reunited with Volrung, his son. He instructs you to go to his lab in the industrial district and use to heart on the special golem there. Talindra the Silvani Matriarch advises you not to use it because Volsung decieved her and he commited atrocities in his quest to revive his son(though Evelia never comments on this).

This choice does not seem to affect Lyric's decorations in her room. However; it will affect Volsung's room in Haven.

## Note

For the purposes of the gallery, I have labeled the first choices "good". However, none of the choices here are considered good or evil to the game. Only the choices about Lyric's dreams are considered Light, Dark, or Neutral and change the ending.
