...

It's time. Together with Lacra we're going to put an end to Brencis's foul ritual and his rule.

Midnight Reckoning

Quest stages of Midnight Reckoning

1. Talk to Lacra in one day

I should return to speak with Lacra the next night.

You must wait at least until the next night falls. Use this time to prepare for what lies ahead.

2. Talk with Lacra when you're ready to attack Brencis

Everything's been said and done - whenever I'm ready to go after Brencis, Lacra will be waiting for me in the abandoned fort.

When day turns into night, return to Lacra and tell her that you are ready for the confrontation with Brencis. Together, you will automatically head to the house in Svartrau where the entrance to the underground leading to the castle should be located.

3. Find an entrance to the ruins

We're in the house from Isbrand's memory. It's connected to the ruins under Svartrau - we need to find the passage.

Go down to the basement and squeeze through the narrow gap between the wall and the barrel rack, then drop down through the hole in the floor.

Find an entrance to the ruins

4. Make your way through the ruins

We've found the ruins under Svartrau - this is how we get to Brencis's castle.

Head straight through the cave along the linear path. At a certain point, you will have to slide down.

Make your way through the ruins

A bit further ahead, in a large cave, you will have to battle a gargoyle that appears.

Make your way through the ruins

After defeating the gargoyle, make your way to the other side of the large chasm. Lacra will take care of the door blocking your path and after a moment, you will be able to move forward.

Make your way through the ruins

5. Proceed through the temple

We've reached a place reminiscent of an ancient temple. We're likely getting close to the castle.

6. Defeat Ambrus

Brencis's newest lackey decided to try to stop us. He won't.

7. Defeat Ambrus's soldiers

I've disposed of Ambrus ahead of time, but his loyal lackeys still want to stop us. Good luck.

8. Exit the temple

There is nothing left to do down here and the entrance to the castle is right ahead. That's where we must go.

9. Make your way through the dungeon

We've entered Greifberg through the dungeons, avoiding the strongest defences. The only way is up.

9.1. Defeat Bakir

The mad boyar came to stop us. It was his final mistake.

10. Make your way to the throneroom

Brencis is in the throneroom - we have to get there as quickly as possible.

10.1. Defeat the gargoyle

A flying abomination attacked us. We need to dispose of it before we can proceed.

10.2. Get into the castle using your vrakhiri abilities

We can't get into the castle through the main entrance. We'll have to scale the floating rocks to find another way in. This is insanity.

10.3. Defeat Xanthe

Boyaress Xanthe arrived to protect Brencis - she wants to stop us. We want her dead.

10.4. Escape the trap

Xanthe's black magic has warped a part of the castle to stop our progress. We need to get out of her trap.

11. Defeat Brencis

At last, here he is. And here he dies.

12. Endings

My family is safe from Brencis now, thank God, but... all I can think about is Lunka.

I couldn't save my family, but at least they've been avenged. May Brencis burn in Hell for eternity.

I've decided to face Brencis without Lacra. She won't appreciate it, but it's for the best.
