In the Dark was an altered representation of a genetic memory.

Intro

You are getting closer to Colubra's sanctuary. Here, the land seems devastated, as if a plague had struck it. The animals are aggressive, the plants seem to have their own willpower and try to grab you.

Along the course of the river, a dike made of wood and stone, clearly shaped by human hands has created a lake. Its black, ominous waters run towards a valley below. There, Colubra's disciples patrol around an altar undoubtedly dedicated to their mistress. Everything there smells like corruption and decay, making the place unbearable.

You see how what is happening here is a serious threat to the world and not just to the Brotherhood. It's up to you to act: Release the waters of the lake to purify the source of corruption.

Objectives

• Flood the Corrupted Valley. [!] Important: The flood will begin at the end of the turn where you have completed the Objective, then reveal the card [keys].

Purifying Flood

Objective completed! Let's leave this place!

Debrief

Thanks to your actions, the corruption of the Artifact has been swept away from this place!

You can't help but wonder how far it extends and if the place will ever return to how it once was.

You will need to find a way to restore the order of things permanently.

Thanks to the rare people you encountered in the region, you have gathered strange stories of fierce battles between two giants: A titanic warrior and a gigantic serpent. Could it be Colubra and Sesha? Would they seek to confront each other?
