The air crackles with an unnerving tension as you step into the incursion chamber, Alva Valai’s worried gaze meeting yours. This time, something feels different. The Architects, those towering constructs normally focused on constructing Vaal temples, stand immobile, their metallic bodies shuddering. A faint, tortured scream echoes through the cavern, its source elusive yet chilling. Alva confirms your suspicions: the Architects are possessed by tormented spirits.
A Twisted Symphony:
Instead of their rhythmic clanging, the Architects emit dissonant wails and groans. Their movements become erratic, jerky, as if controlled by unseen puppeteers. Each blow they strike carries a raw desperation, a flicker of the trapped soul struggling against the Vaal technology’s oppressive grip.
Alva’s Desperation:
Alva pleads for your help. Not only must you dismantle the incursion temple, but you must also find a way to free the tormented spirits. She whispers of ancient Vaal rituals, hidden chambers within the temple, and the potential for an unforeseen reward for those who can truly break the cycle of suffering.

A Dark Symphony Awaits:
This possessed architect incursion is not just a test of your combat prowess, but also a challenge to your compassion and your grasp of Vaal lore. Will you prioritize pragmatism and dismantle the temple, leaving the spirits trapped within? Or will you delve deeper, seek their liberation, and risk the incursion’s failure in pursuit of a higher purpose? The choice is yours, Exile. In the heart of the possessed incursion, a dark symphony plays, and only you can determine its final refrain.
Remember, the path you choose will echo through the incursion and beyond, shaping your relationship with Alva, impacting Wraeclast’s fate, and perhaps even revealing a hidden facet of the Vaal’s dark legacy. So, step into the chamber, embrace the dissonance, and prepare to conduct a symphony of liberation amidst the clash of steel and the cries of tormented souls.
