  • The whispers of temptation gets louder, we can now hear what they're saying
  • Each get an offer, then the whispers dissipate with a loud boom on the cliffs

  • The offers are repeated
  • Archer asks the Diviner what to do, he tells her that "The vow might be broken. Take him down" (about the knight Mats is now playing)
  • The offers are repeated, with one addition (He never sent me anything more… So I guess no addition? Addition to S)
  • We reach the hut, T tells A to get S up, then enters the hut
  • T shakes the crone awake
  • Calls herself Pot, doesn't say anything else when asked who she was before Pot

  • "I'm dangerous"
  • Says she is able to teleport them there in theory, but it's not accurate
  • A Cures Wound on S

  • Strikes Remorse into the ground, like a banner
  • Slight prayer "Divided we fall, but united we will always stand"
  • Backs away, making sure to catch the sight of M's ashes fly away
  • Then he heads to the hut
  • As he leaves, he hears the sound of a hammer on an anvil, 3 times.
  • The fire seems more powerful, and more controlled
  • Eventually it dies down, revealing ashes swirling around the still standing Remorse, and into the heavens
