  • This Quest is still WIP.
    This walktrough is mostly for testing purpose. Some parts are in spoiler tags. They are things which you will find out when playing the quest, but if your sole goal is to test the quest they will give you more information.

    Triggering the Quest
    This quest will trigger in a specific situation.
    You need to have spend the night with at least 2 different NPC's. Mostly it's tavern officiants who have this option.
    Once you are spending the nigth with the third person than this quest will trigger. It won't give a questbook entry instantly.
    when the quest is triggered it will take another month before something happens.
    If you sleep at the tavern or are at sea at midnight the questbook update will appear and the quest will start.

    The Curse
    You will wake up after a dream and you are now cursed. This curse has some special effects.
    The curse consists of 5 stages, you are no in the first stage.
    These are the effects:
    Stage 1
    Super Storm chance = 1%
    Stage 2
    Super Storm chance = 5%
    Stage 3
    Super Storm chance = 15%
    Stage 4
    Super Storm chance = 35%
    Stage 5
    Super Storm chance = 70%

    Every 36 days the curse stage will increase and it will give you a new questbook entry.
    [WIP NOTE] in later versions the curse stages will have more effects
    Having this curse will cause you to have a chance to encounter superstorm.
    A superstorm is a storm which takes twice as long as a normal storm and has waves which are a lot higher. These storms can be very potent!

    Continuing the Quest
    The dreams you will have will give you an idea of where you can go to continue with this quest.
    You should ask around in the taverns. Maybe someone knows something you need.
    the tavern owner might have some info. the higher the level of the curse is the higher the chance the tavern owner knows something. once you tried a tavern owner he wont know it later, if you didn't have a dialog option to pick you will need to find another tavern owner.
    If you are lucky you might end up in a specific town where they know something more too.
    Going to Santiago and talking to the people there will give you a clue.
    If you wait long enough more options will open up.
    At the 4th stage you are able to talk to the librarian at Turks. He will send you in the right direction too.
    At the 5th stage you will see the vision which will send you to the next part of the quest. If you wait this long you will skip the Mahala part of the quest. You can still do it by going to her first. But once you go to the location shown in the dream you won't be able to do the mahala part anymore.

    Mahala
    After some searching you will find Mahala. You can aks her about the dreams you have and she will tell you she is able to help you. But you need to bring her some opium and some money.
    You can buy the opium at the opium den or you can go to the smugglers camp at the same island (as mahala suggested). You can find someone there who will sell you Opium. After this he will stay to be a opium seller so you can also use him for the normal Opium sidequests.
    BEWARE: If you have the opium it's possible guards will ambush you and take it from you.
    After you go back to her you can give her the opium and she will tell you to meet her at the tavern in 3 days.
    After 3 days are gone you can go to the tavern and meet her there. She will take you to the room upstairs and help you to get a vision. Afterwards you will say goodbye and you can go to the place of your vision.
    You have the option to spend the night with mahala, if you do she wont ask for the money. But this might have consequences later.
    [WIP NOTE] In the current version of the quest this has no consequences yet.
    The vision will guide you to Cartagena.

    Following the Vision
    Once you arrived at the location of your vision.
    which is Cartagena.
    You will walk towards the city and be reloaded. You will enter in another part of the city and walk towards the place described in your vision. You will find a book here.
    Once you read the book you need to spend the night in the tavern or at sea for the next part to happen.
    You will get a dream which gives you a hint of where to go next already.
    You can then also look at the tavern news to get another hint of where to go.
    You need to go to the tavern where you spend the night with the officiant. She will now be gone.

    Finding the Officiant
    Once you arrive at the place you need to be you can talk to the owner. He will tell you something and give you a hint of where to go next.
    you need to find someone (picked at random) in the town who knows more about the officiant.
    If you can't find it you can wait for 14 days. If you do the tavern news will have a clue about what you need to find.
    it will show the name of the person you need to find.
    After you find this you will learn you need to go back to Cartagena and talk to a Gentleman there.
    The Mansion is oposide from the second tavern in Cartagena.
    NOTE that it's closed at night.

    [WIP NOTE] Once you talk to this person the quest will now end. This is as far as it is completed at the moment.
