The Pulsing Heart

Walkthrough

※The Burden of the Father can be accessed via the Duty Finder.

You have felled the mechanical sentinel guarding the lift to the core. Now, you need but board it to reach your objective.

They recall with a start that Quickthinx was pursuing a mysterious “missing piece,” and that goblin troops might be rushing towards Idyllshire in search of it now. Follow the pair of engineers outside of Gordias, and find out what the watchman has spied emerging from the hatch.

To your dismay, the goblin watchman then informs you that the enemy was last seen near the shortstop─where Roundrox was playing. Wedge and Mide dash off to make certain she is safe, leaving you to wonder what the “missing piece” could possibly be...
