Detailed WalkthroughEdit

NotesEdit

  • The scripted dialogue sequences can be repeated over and over by walking near their trigger points.
  • Sir Hughes, Hosni at-Tura, and General Godrun don't appear with the usual red filter unlike the other enemies within the dream.
  • The bosses guarding the keys will respawn shortly after being defeated the first time.
  • When you engage High King Emeric, you will have to fight a gauntlet of the bosses you defeated before beating the final boss (Galthis).

Quest StagesEdit

Vaermina's Gambit
Finishes Quest Journal Entry
I have the Duskstone, so I can enter Emeric's Dream.
Objective: Enter High King Emeric's Dream
High King Emeric's dream is a nightmare vision of Wayrest, filled with chaos and destruction. I must find the king and help him escape.
Objective: Find High King Emeric
High King Emeric stands before the guillotine, surrounded by rioting citizens. If I speak to him, perhaps I can wake him from this dream.
Objective: Talk to High King Emeric
It's clear that I can't free King Emeric until the Night Terror has released its hold. Emeric suggested that the Night Terror was in the castle, but apparently I need to face the Night Terror's minions to get the keys to the castle. There are three.
Objective: Collect Key of the Knight
Objective: Collect Key of the Thief
Objective: Collect Key of the General
I must enter the palace and kill the Night Terror so I can rescue High King Emeric from this dream.
Objective: Kill the Night Terror
Now that I've killed the Night Terror, I should free High King Emeric.
Objective: Free the King
I defeated the Night Terror. Once again, it appears as though I am forced to enter Vaermina's realm of Quagmire.
Objective: Enter Vaermina's Mirror
Vaermina wishes to speak to me. I have little choice but to listen.
Objective: Talk to Vaermina
Vaermina seeks to trap me here in her realm, but perhaps there is some way to escape.
Objective: Escape Quagmire
Hidden Objective: Use Mirror
I woke up in the king's bedroom. I should speak to the king.
Objective: Talk to King Emeric
High King Emeric asked me to follow him to the throne room.
Objective: Meet King Emeric in the Throne Room
Notes
* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
  • Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
  • Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
