A final scream fills the dreadful halls of Carn Dûm, and you suspect the worst. As you enter the site of Daechanar's dark ritual, your fears come to life. Iârion stands before you, cracking his neck and gripping the blade at his side tightly, as though testing his muscles. Only it isn't him.

When Daechanar is defeated, advance to the next stage.
