The player then fights their way to the grave of the founder of Steelight, to find he has returned as a ghost, drawn back by the terrible happenings that began in Silverfall. The player receives the stone to cleanse the Archmage of Silverfall's child from the corruption of the shadow. Conveniently, the player doesn't have to track their childhood companion down, as they appear on the scene and beg the player not to 'kill' them with the stone. The player, however, ignores the shadow and proceeds to save their friend, who just has time to say a heartfelt thank you before the King of Darkness arrives and kills them. The player attacks in a rage, but the mastermind behind Silverfall's destruction and the many other schemes the player has tried to thwart manages to escape, talking about bringing the God of Destruction into the world.
