Lair of the Eyeless is a main quest in Pillars of Eternity: The White March - Part II.
The quest is automatically obtained after completing The Rising Tide.
Overview
After reforging the recovered piece of Abydon's hammer into a hammer of your own, Ondra has instructed you to go to Cayron's Scar. There your must enter a large fragment of the Ionni Brathr, the crashed moon, in order to stop the Eyeless in their quest to destroy the Dyrwood.
Quick walkthrough
- Go to the White Forge.
- Forge a hammer from the fragment of Abydon's hammer.
- Talk to the people of Stalwart and its surrounding area.
- Depending on your choices during the White March, you will have a number of allies in the coming battle:
- Adaryc
- Matron Beregan
- Durgan's Battery's artillery.
- The conversation decides which of them will be available to you, and you'll get abilities usable in Cayron's Scar to call for backup from them. Very handy if you're on higher difficulties.
- Go to Cayron's Scar.
- Make your way to the Large Fragment of Ionni Brathr, and enter it.
- Make your way through the cavern. You'll be stopped for a conversation with Ondra not far after entering.
- Continue forward.
- There will be another pool, into which you can dive. There will be loot there, and passing a Constitution 17 and either Athletics 13 or Stealth 10 will make for a better outcome. No matter how you do, you'll have to fight a group of Lagufaeth.
- Interact with the cliff face, and go down into the pool.Note: You will not be able to go back up from this pool, so make a save before entering, if you want to try the ending with different party compositions, as the possible endings will depend on which party members you have with you, as their desicions during their companion quests will contribute to the arguments you make.
- Kill the Kraken.
- Interact with the crystal, deciding who will be left to hit it. Iverra's Diving Helmet will be helpfull to avoid drowning.
- Talk with the Eyeless. Your desicions so far in the game, and which directions you steered your companions will have an impact on the ending. You will have two base choices (1, 2), and a third (3) if you can provide convincing evidence for your statements:
- Ask them not to reforge Abydon.
- Let them reforge Abydon with the memory of Ondra betraying him.
- Convince them to reforge Abydon, but a tempered version, where his memories are restored but given context beyond what he remembered at his death.
