Involvement[edit | edit source]

Follow the Convoy[edit | edit source]

Main article: Follow the Convoy

If the party reached the Shadow-Cursed Lands through the Mountain Pass, Kansif can be found a short jog away from the entry point, idly waiting for the arrival of a True Soul, and leading a small group of Absolutists composed of fellow half-orc Bedi, and the goblins Brawler Vez, Warrior Gronag, and Sharp-Eye Lora.

Speaking with Kansif will have him remark on the party leader being a True Soul, and will grant the opportunity to initiate Follow the Convoy by playing the Spider's Lyre, which will summon Kar'niss. The party can then attack Kansif and the cultists, or follow the convoy to Moonrise Towers.

Ambush[edit | edit source]

Following the cultists will take them and the party through the Ruined Battlefield, where a nearby group of Harpers lay in wait to ambush the convoy in an attempt to acquire Kar'niss' Moonlantern. The Harpers will immediately attack the convoy on sight, but will momentarily give the party a chance to change sides and attack Kansif and the other cultists. Siding with Kansif will allow the party to Infiltrate Moonrise Towers, while siding with the Harpers will lead to Kansif's death and have Branthos refer the party to Last Light Inn.

Alternatively, if the party reached the Shadow-Cursed Lands through Grymforge instead, they can encounter Kansif and his convoy for the first time mid-transit, with or without a Harper escort. The party can subsequently either ambush the convoy and seize the Moonlantern for themselves, let them pass, or convince Kar'niss to give them the Moonlantern. If the party waits a little longer before attacking, Kar'niss will slay Lora for venturing towards where the party and Harpers are hiding, to which Kansif will call for the drider to stop, to no avail.

Convincing the cultists to part with the Moonlantern will have them walk into the Shadow Curse, only to be found later in the center of Reithwin as enemy Shadow-Cursed Undead Shadow-Cursed Undead. They are automatically hostile to the party in this form and cannot be interacted with other than by attacking.

Arriving at Moonrise Towers[edit | edit source]

If sided with and alive, Kansif will be led alongside the party to Moonrise Towers, where Kar'niss will depart. Kansif will remain in the towers' quarters, alongside Bedi and the goblins. Talking with Kansif will him mention his mission to bring the party to Moonrise as successful, and jokingly asking them to not forget him as they move up the ranks.[1]
