The Theater of Bones

**The Theater of Bones** is a quest in *Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones*. For other uses see Theater of Bones (Disambiguation).

## Journal

It seems Arkham Theater has been turned into some kind of a pilgrimage site for a Cult associated with the end of the world. If I want to get inside, I better find a way to disguise myself as a cultist.
I finally disguised myself as a cultist but the stooges at the entrance drove me away after checking my body for a mark called "the gift of cleansing" I won't be able to get inside without this mark. I wonder if Krogh might know something about it.
For better or worse, I now have the mark of cleansing. It's time to head back to the Theater of Bones.

* Find the Dismal Man

## Starting Conditions

This quest begins after speaking to the Cultist Sheikh in front of the theater in Pilgrim's Parish.

## Ending Conditions

This quest ends after entering the Theater of Bones.

## Guide

To enter the Theater of Bones, the player character will need three things a Cultist Hood, Cultist Robes, and a mark of cleansing. There are several ways to get the Cultist Hood and Robes:

* After speaking to the Cultist Sheikh in front of the theater you will get a blueprint for Cultist Robes, you can craft it with Robe Rags, Textile, and Needle and Thread.
* You can find some Cultist Robes near the Altar of the Gods in Pilgrim's Parish, you will take some damage getting them though.
* You can convince the Erudite Cultist that the Cult is wrong (found near the ruined museum). This will require a high Science or Speechcraft check.

After getting the Hood and Robes put them on and speak to the Cultist Sheikh again, after a short conversation head back to Krogh's Refuge in Riverside Speak to Krogh to get the mark of cleansing.

**Shipping Manifest** is a document in *Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones*.

## Description

*"The shipping manifest of an intercontinental vessel, dealing certain goods."*

## Contents

*"Manifest Caution Note:*

*Do not break the seal of the pots for inspection in any case. Inhalation of the pots' contents may induce drowsiness and in severe cases of exposure, prolonged sleep that may last indefinitely. Store the crates in a vibration resistant compartment, for the antique containers are very fragile. Transport the loads with extreme caution.*

*Dear Baroness,*

*I sincerely hope that, after enduring great rigours and witnessing an unaccountable phenomenon concerning a fellow colleague of mine, I will have finally managed to deliver to your hands this cave dust, which is rumoured to have put seven christians to a sleep that lasted three hundred and nine years in a cave near the vicinity of Ephesus, during their voluntary exile to evade the tyranny of, then, a still pagan Rome. I believe that the veracity of what befell my colleague will provide you a clear picture of what you now possess is well capable of, and in that, I reckon it was the dust that leaked off one of the broken pots during our voyage which put my colleague into a deep state of slumber that he's still in and from which he'll probably never awake. Be wary madam, for whatever reason you wish to exploit this substance of mysterious properties, do so knowing that you may never again wake up."*

**Randolph the Dream Walker** is a quest in *Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones*.

## Journal

I met an unusually stylish young woman in French Hill, who had a dark mystique about her. She asked me if I'd had seen her husband, going by the name Randolph Carter. "A slender long faced man..." was her words. I'll be sure to keep that in mind in case I run across him.
As if it were somehow foreordained, I met an elusive individual in the secluded dreamscape I visited last night, where he granted me his name: Randolph Carter, I recall the lady I met in French Hill, was looking for him. If I can find her perhaps I should tell her about this confounding experience.

## Starting Conditions

This quest begins after speaking to Sonia Greene Carter at the bottom right of French Hill.

## Ending Conditions

This quest ends after meeting Randolph and speaking to Sonia Greene Carter in The Old Eel Bar.

## Guide

After speaking to Sonia, when the player next sleeps they will enter a dream wherein they will meet an individual. After a short dialogue the player will have to attempt to identify this individual. If the player has sufficient investigation or Mind they will be able to guess right out, otherwise the player will have to guess a name. Should the player guess incorrectly they will face additional sanity loss. When asked to deduce who he is, the mystery man will begin reciting a poem:

> ***R**efraining from pageantry of the mundane*
>
>
> ***A** boy shall wander into the path of prophecy*
>
>
> ***N**ebulous is the truth of all things future and past*
>
>
> ***D**welling beyond the serpent’s lair for none but him to see*
>

>
> ***R**esplendence of his dreams however is not to remain*
>
>
> ***T**hus the search for the Silver Key must begin duly*
>
>
> ***E**xalted he will be in the deathless continuum, wild and free*
>
>
>
> ***R**esigning from the world to embrace all that was and will ever be*
>
>

I met the Masked Servant of an aristocratic woman called the Dreaming Baroness. He asked me to set her free from a city called Thalarion in which she is held prisoner. The only problem is that this city exists only in dreams! He gave me some yellow lotus tea so I could join her in my sleep.
The demon head of Thalarion told me no one can pass through the city without knowing themselves and the Baroness was a prisoner of her own passions and fears.

Ward 10

**Ward 10** is a location in *Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones*, accessed from the Witch House attic.

* Ward 10 cannot be traveled to using conventional means and is only accessed through storyline progression.

## Description

''*This section contains spoilers for major plot points in the main storyline of* Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones*, do not read this section if you wish to avoid such things.*

The extra-dimensional portal found in the Witch House attic transports the character to Ward 10, an asylum for the insane and the destitute. A number of familiar faces and objects fill the room, causing the character to question their own sanity. It is never explained how the character came to be in the ward. All that matters is that they escape before time runs out.

### Points of Interest

* Medical Cabinet #10: Haloperiphedal, Nerve Tonic, and Laudanum Shot
	+ Must acquire Key Number 10 from Carrion Jack to access
	+ These items will automatically be added to the character's inventory when using the key
* Curtain
	+ Moving a bedside curtain will reveal Isidore Schmidt
* Marino's Trolley
	+ *Subterfuge* Check: Calcium Martini and Ugin Fizz (these items will automatically be added to the character's inventory on a successful Subterfuge check)

### NPCs and Enemies

* Carrion Jack
* Dismal Man
* Dreaming Baroness
* Insane Clerk
* Isidore Schmidt
* Krogh
* Marino

## Solution

The character must access the medical cabinet and retrieve the Haloperiphedal. To do so, they will need the Key Number 10 from either Carrion Jack or Isidore Schmidt:

* Carrion Jack: Defeat the orderly in combat and retrieve the key (the character can purchase a tranquilizer from Marino's stock and use it to drug Carrion Jack in combat)
* Isidore Schmidt: If the character speaks to Isidore first, they will learn that the old man nicked the key from Carrion Jack. After a bit of dialogue, the character will have the option of stealing the key from Isidore using a Subterfuge check

Once retrieved, the character can use the key to enter the locker, grab the Haloperiphedal, and ask Marino to concoct a mixture that will allow their mind to escape Ward 10.

## Notes

* On arriving to Ward 10, the character's inventory will be empty with exception to 72 cigs, a few rations, and the set of hospital garments they wear
* The menu bar at the bottom of the screen will display a deranged series of words and the companion portrait images will display malign, scarecrow-like caricatures

## Sacrificing Your Companion

The concluding cinematic that plays upon completing the game will change (slightly) depending on which companion the player character chooses to sacrifice to the Black Pyramid. One of the following unique dialogues will occur:

* The Nameless Soldier: *As the Nameless Soldier’s rifle, which has never before left his hand, clatters to the ground, you realize that this undead being has finally retired from the war that rages endlessly in his broken mind.*
* The Outsider: *The Outsider turns the waning yellow light of his eye upon you one last time. The frozen apparition of his face beneath the rags evince how fatal a mistake he made by taking part in the story of a human.*
* Sonia Green Carter: *Sonia Green Carter gazes up at you one last time with the fading eyes of a lost soul. The path she followed in tracing her husband’s fate has ended with the gift of a second death, which you have so treacherously bestowed upon her.*
* Werner (Butler): *As Werner fixes his withering gaze upon you, you realize you’ve never seen him so dirty and unkempt. Now he is just another broken victim of the very entropy against which he has struggled his entire life.*
* Wilbur Hampton: *Disbelief and shock are etched on the face of this man – lost in both time and space – at his own murder by the only member of his race who he has encountered on this alien world. As he collapses, helpless, to the ground, his eyes still glow with a relentless hatred for you.*
* Winston (Dog): *Winston looks up at you with dying eyes that yet reflect his inexhaustible loyalty to you. In a dog’s mind, the scope of your betrayal is simply inconceivable.*

**Tears of a memory** is a quest in *Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones*.

## Journal

In my dream I met with the Dreaming Baroness again, in return for my aid, she shared the knowledge of a spell with me, a working which will help me pass through the noxious environment of the Blasted Street! The first thing I did upon waking was note down her instructions so that I can decipher them later. In the meantime I should look for this intriguing spell component: Tears of a Memory. The last thing I remember from the dream was the Baroness telling me something about Arkham Theater.
I met a young woman named Amelia inside the Reel of Doom. She was suffused with an undeniable air of melancholia. As I listened to her tragic story, the special screening began. Under the bright light of the halls chandelier, I saw tears freely falling down her cheeks. Could these be the tears of a memory?
I aquired the pearls that once belonged to Amelia. Under the white projector light they seem just like the tears I saw on her face inside the footage. I wonder if this is what I was looking for.

## Starting Conditions

This quest begins upon completion of Meet Me in Dreams.

## Ending Conditions

This quest ends upon first casting Night Walk.

## Guide

Complete The Theater of Bones.

After completing that quest go to a seat in the right section, it should be slightly highlighted. Sitting in this seat should start a cutscene after which you will find yourself in Arkham Theater prior to the Black Day. Speak to Amelia (woman in white, furthest left), then speak to Heins (man with a briefcase between seat sections) After completing both conversations another cutscene will occur. Go to Amelia's corpse on the left section of seats at the bottom and get Amelia's Pearls. Exit the theater and cast Night Walk.
