## Walkthrough


### Step 1

- **Dialogue**: An old record...


### Step 2

- **Reward**: This record seems to have been written
before Bahram became Qabal.


### Step 3

- **Reward**: This record seems to date from the time
when Bahram and I trained together.


### Step 4

- **Reward**: There are no more records to read.


### Step 5

- **Objective**: Examine the old record.

- **Summary**: It seems Kayal struck a dark bargain for power.
Ayawaka claims to have proof—
he says he found the serpent's skin in Kayal's quarters.
To keep it from Kayal, the skin was divided into pieces
and Ayawaka hid them throughout the sanctuary.
The serpent's name... Ibedor...


### Step 6

- **Reward**: (Ibedor—the serpent, the Servant of Darkness,
whose silver tongue I encountered in the Basilisk Den.)


### Step 7

- **Reward**: (Ibedor—the snake, who possessed the Statue of Comfort,  
and sought to deceive me as Aal Himself.)


### Step 8

- **Objective**: Continue examining the old record.

- **Summary**: At last, Kayal has acted.
Kayal was ever an enigma,
despising his royal blood,
yet longing to return in glory.
But when the Sanctuary was built and the doors of Alyaelli were sealed,
he feared his chance for honor would slip away...


### Step 9

- **Reward**: He harbored a corruption from which there is no return...
A power that one chosen by Aal should never have claimed.


### Step 10

- **Objective**: Continue examining the old record.

- **Summary**: When his schemes were exposed,
Kayal drew his blade against his comrades.
The Sanctuary ran red with the blood of Hashashins.
All perished, save myself and Ayawaka.
Kayal, fleeing Ayawaka's blade,
barely escaped with his life.


### Step 11

- **Objective**: Continue examining the old record.

- **Reward**: From his place of exile, Kayal opened yet another door of Alyaelli—
a gateway to the End.

- **Summary**: After that tragedy, restoring the Sanctuary's ranks became urgent.
Ayawaka strove to train new initiates.
When the threat of closure was finally averted,
Ayawaka too departed, searching for something.
Thus I became the Qabal of this Sanctuary—
chaos became my opportunity.


### Step 12

- **Reward**: Under the guise of strengthening the Sanctuary,
the support funds received allowed for a life that was far from unpleasant.
