Kar'niss brings the party to Moonrise Towers safely, as promised, but he doesn't relinquish his Moonlantern. In order to acquire the Moonlantern, the party must earn it by appeasing a specific disciple, Disciple [[Z'rell]]. After a cutscene with Z'rell and [[Ketheric Thorm]], the party is tasked to dispatch some goblins and then meet with Z'rell upstairs. Speak to her, and she telepathically connects with the party to see how the goblins died. Next, she tries to figure out if the party is loyal to the Absolute. The player can attempt to distract her with romantic thoughts of their love interest (Persuasion DC 14), fill their mind with fake love for the Absolute (Deception DC 14), distract her with their hunger for power, or use a special dialogue for Monks, Rogues, or Fighters. | Kar'niss brings the party to Moonrise Towers safely, as promised, but he doesn't relinquish his Moonlantern.

If successful, Z'rell gives the party a new task - track down [[Balthazar]], a servant of Thorm's who the cult has lost contact with. He was last seen at the [[Grand Mausoleum|Thorm Mausoleum]]. Z'rell gives the party a key to his room and instructs them to take a Moonlantern and touch nothing else. Thorm's room is on the same floor, past the library. The Moonlantern is in a box near a wooden desk in the centre of the room (just south of the telescope).{{note|While in Balthazar's room, Gale can make a special Moonlantern as part of [[Balthazar's Experiment]]. However, this lantern does not provide the protective function of a Moonlantern.}} | If successful, Z'rell gives the party a new task - track down [[Balthazar]], a servant of Thorm's who the cult has lost contact with.

If the party gains Kar'niss' lantern, a pixie speaks out to them and begs for her freedom. If the party frees her, she introduces herself as [[Dolly Dolly Dolly]]. In return for freeing her, the party can ask for her help with the shadow curse. She grants them a Filigreed Feywild Bell, which grants a [[Pixie Blessing (Condition)|Pixie Blessing]] that staves off the curse.{{note|The Pixie Blessing can only be obtained by freeing Dolly Thrice from Kar'niss' Moonlantern. Trapped pixies cannot be freed from any other moonlanterns.}} In comparison to the Moonlantern, which has a limited range and takes up a weapon slot, the blessing affects all party members and requires nothing to be equipped. | If the party gains Kar'niss' lantern, a pixie speaks out to them and begs for her freedom.
