What is wrong with this place?
--------------------
Reviled Cay
An island nestled in the far northeast of the Nimbus Sea. It’s not on any maps. It’s not spoken of by anybody, and it’s not known to even the most observant of onlookers.
This is because it’s not really an island, it’s a wide chunk of obsidian that recently drifted from deep in the Dark Sea to the right outside the border of the Nimbus Sea.
Hundreds of years of magically enhanced volcanic activity resulted in this battered piece of obsidian.
Stepping onto the island gives the player Insanity 2 by default. As is typical for the Dark Sea, it’s pretty dim and somber.
Despite its similarities, it does not have the unexplained effects of Akursius Keep such as trapped spirits being the color red, as well as the sun being red.
The island is inhabited by a sum of four ghosts. Their dialogue is as follows.
- “…”
- “Who- …Who are you? What are you doing with that hammer? GET BACK!”
- “The island… no… something under it… it’s speaking to me. I have to find it to make it stop…”
-
- Player: “Under the island?”
-
- “YES, yes! Go find it! Make it shut up!”
- “One of these days… I’m sure they’ll find me. Whether it be from their own searching, or from me finding them. I’ll make them wish they never tricked me…”
-
- Player: “Who is ‘they’?”
-
- “…”
The island (despite not being on maps) is required to 100% the Nimbus Sea. Due to this, it is visible from a wilderness island or two during a clear day. It has one exploration task, and that is to discover the island secret.
If you follow the instructions of one of the ghosts, you’ll find a tunnel entrance on the underside of the island. Inside, a familiar looking scepter, embedded into a stone wall underground.
