Walkthrough[edit]
- Damage the possessed ward members down to 10% to unlock their defiance bar. Break it and then defeat the tethered Incarnation of the Parasite that spawns to progress the event.
- Failure to defeat the parasite before it reaches the host results in the host regaining health and resuming hostility.
- Note: Possessed researchers can also spawn on the roof of the building, so make sure to check there also.

Dialogue[edit]
- Head Experimenter Rhianwyn: You! I can't trust anyone around here. I'll reconfigure your Heart of the Obscure to scan for signs of possession so you can draw the Kryptis out.
I'll see what I can do.
No... The risk is too great.
- Head Experimenter Rhianwyn: You there. I think some of my colleagues are possessed, and I need help weeding them out. Your Heart of the Obscure should do the job. Hand it over and I'll modify it.
- I'll try to draw them out.
- No... The risk is too great.
- Event start
- Head Experimenter Rhianwyn: Perhaps if we severed... certain emotional strands. Cut the source of the connection at the root.
- Head Experimenter Rhianwyn: It could be risky. But this might be the only way...
- During the event
- Head Experimenter Rhianwyn: I wonder how all this...mess would have turned out if Akeem was still with us?
- Assistant Mefi: Only Isgarren, Mabon, or Dagda could really say. They fell so long ago, right?
- Head Experimenter Rhianwyn: Yes... We only have notes and stories now. Which are all...contradictory.
- Head Experimenter Rhianwyn: One said they were a water djinn; another, earth... A third claimed no one know for certain.
- Head Experimenter Rhianwyn: Akeem spent much of their time shapeshifting into other species to learn more about them.
- Head Experimenter Rhianwyn: Regardless, we follow their lead. Question everything. Never accept the reality in front of you.
- Head Experimenter Rhianwyn: Doubt is just your mind telling you that you're asking the right questions.
- When scanning a researcher that is not possessed
- Astral Ward Mage: Hey, don't look at me. The probability of my corruption is miniscule.
- When a researcher becomes hostile
- Possessed Dock Worker: None of us are trustworthy.
- Possessed Dock Worker: You accuse me? I am not so weak!
- Astral Ward Mage: Spirits of the Wild, preserve me...
- After event is completed
- Head Experimenter Rhianwyn: A resounding success! The prototype seems to have worked, in the short term. But I worry about its long-term effects.
- Head Experimenter Rhianwyn: For now, I'll get the victims to safety to safety and monitor them closely. Thank you, Wayfinder.
