Unbearable Light

Unbearable Light is a quest for level 10-59 in Revendreth. It is step 5 of 11 in The Mad Duke storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Revendreth at 38.0, 60.7. It rewards 8,050 experience and money.

Description

Have you encountered an ash ghoul yet? Wretches crawling on the ground. Jump on everything. Terrible table manners.

That is the unfortunate fate awaiting all venthyr exposed to the Light for too long. The overwhelming pain it causes us breaks our willpower, our mind, and finally our body.

With the right skills, it is possible to reverse the Light's desecration if it is treated quickly.

But the ash ghouls in this Light-burned crater are beyond redemption. There is only one mercy left.

Theotar will accompany you for the three missions he offers, Theotar's Mission, Unbearable Light, and My Terrible Morning.

There is a bar over his head indicating his mental state. As he is exposed to sun light, his mental health will decrease. When it reaches zero, he will become incoherent and start screaming infrequently.
You can try to keep to the shadows around the edges of the valley to keep the bar from going lower.

His mental state does not seem to have any effect on the success of the mission or your ability to turn in quests!

So I wouldn't worry too much if you cannot keep the bar above zero.

Adding: I completed his first three quests with plenty of willpower left, but when I accepted the next in line (Lost in the Desiccation), it immediately dropped his willpower to 0. So definitely don't worry about keeping it up, because apparently it goes to 0 no matter what!

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • My Terrible MorningRevendreth · Level 10-59

    You simply won't believe what happened to me! I was out for my daily stroll when Marquis Pummeler and his band of ruffians assailed me! Amongst the many unfortunate and ungentlemanly behaviors they displayed was destroying my parasol. A tragedy of the highest order!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Theotar's MissionRevendreth · Level 10-59

    Oh the Accuser sent you? How keen! I do, in fact, know the fate of Prince Renathal... at least part of it. When our assault on the Master's keep failed, we were both captured. I was banished to the Ember Ward, but the Prince was dragged off to Sinfall.
