1
Meet with Anca at the old inn
Anca told me to meet her at the old inn near St. Tyna's – and we'll go to the monastery together from there.
-
2
Make your way through the fog
This fog – it's not natural, that's for sure. We should stick together and watch each other's backs as we approach St. Tyna's.
1 time segment -
3
Investigate the body
Travelling through this ungodly fog, we came across a fresh body. Might be a good idea to give it a look-over – and find out what dangers lurk here.
Optional -
4
Open the convent gates
We managed to get to St. Tyna's – and were surprised to hear voices coming from within. What's going on? We need to open the gates and see for ourselves.
-
5
Investigate the dead nun
The nun – she's dead, and yet she came after us. How's it even possible? We need to take a closer look, see what we can learn.
-
6
Follow Anca through the refectory building
Turns out the whole convent is infested with undead nuns. We managed to safely hide inside the refectory building – but what now? Anca suggested we take a closer look at the convent from the balcony before we decide anything.

Secure a safe passage to the library for Anca
The books are somewhere in the library – which Anca cannot safely access with all the undead nuns milling about. I need to figure out how to secure a safe passage for her.

9
Check out the chapel bells
From what I understand, the convent bells were used to inform the nuns what they were supposed to do. I wonder if I can use this to my advantage.
Optional -
10
Return to Anca
I've managed to open a secure passage to the library – I need to tell Anca we're good to go.
1 time segment -
11
Push the bookcase out of the way
The forbidden volumes are hidden behind a bookcase. Let's push it out of the way, then.
-
12
Descend to the catacombs
Someone took the forbidden books – and brought them down to the catacombs. Though I don't like it one bit, we need to follow.
-
13
Look for keys
Lots of locked doors around the convent. But I'm sure I can find the right keys to open them.
Optional -
14
Look for keys in the caretaker's shed
There was a caretaker at the convent – and he had a shed. I'd bet my money there are some keys to be found there.
Optional -
15
Search for the forbidden books in the catacombs
We know someone took the forbidden books down to the catacombs. We need to find them.
1 time segment -
16
Follow Anca
Anca knows this convent like the back of her hand – let her show me the way.
-
17
Defeat the undead nun
We were attacked by a nun who's neither quite dead, nor alive. I need to strike her down all the same.
-
18
Defeat Leonica
Now we know who brought the curse upon the convent – it was Anca's old friend, Leonica. But now, there's no talking to her – I need to put her down before she kills us both.
-
19
Wait for Anca or come back later
I'm at the inn – but Anca isn't here yet. I can wait for her, or come back some time later.
-
20
Check out the infirmary
There's smoke coming out of the infirmary's chimney. So there's someone inside – someone who still has their wits about them.
Optional -
21
Check out the bell tower
What's inside the bell tower, I wonder – other than the bells? Only one way to find out.
Optional -
22
Check out the chapel
The chapel used to be the heart of the convent – if there are any clues as to what happened here, I bet that's where I'll find them.
Optional 1 time segment -
23
Investigate the sounds coming from the infirmary
What's that I heard coming from the infirmary – voices? I should check who's inside.
Optional -
24
Talk to Anca
Leonica is dead – as it turns out, she was behind the evil that took over St. Tyna's. Anca is browsing through her books now. I should look around the room and approach Anca when ready.

Secure a safe passage to the library for Anca
The books are somewhere in the library – which Anca cannot safely access with all the undead nuns milling about. I need to figure out how to secure a safe passage for her.

Endings
- We learned that the curse hanging over St. Tyna's was brought down by one Leonica, Anca's old friend. She was trying to use magic to save the nuns from the plague... And much to her later chagrin, she succeeded. There was no talking with Leonica – but the notes we found in the catacombs contained instructions on how to undo the damage she'd done. Anca insisted that she needed to follow through with Leonica's plan... And seeing how important it was to her, I didn't stop her. Time will tell whether it was the right choice.

Anca insisted that she needed to follow through with Leonica's plan – but I couldn't allow it. Time will tell whether it was the right choice.
- I was hungry for blood – and things got out of hand. Anca is dead, I feel like utter shit, and now I'll never find out what ancient wisdom these forbidden books supposedly hold.
- I ignored the books hidden in St. Tyna's and decided to storm the castle without their aid.
