key quest
As Maea carves into herself, the subsequent pain she feels is dealt to the Vill as well. It lances across the battlefield like a shot through the soul, burning with purpose and power and pain. The Spectral Villi recoils, its veil snapping backward as though caught in a wind that only the dead can feel. It screams—not the shriek of a banshee this time, but a keening note of anger, warped and cracked like a music box left too long in the dark.
Then Astaroth ’s fire follows—more ragged, more vicious—and it connects. The flames rake the Villi’s arm, scorching the translucent skin until it curls and peels like old paper. She stumbles back with a sound that might be words in a dead tongue, dragging the mist with her in tattered coils.
She does not fall. But her form flickers. Falters. She turns on Maea once more with those eyeless, glowing hollows—but this time her strike slices only through air.
Behind them,Koa ’s prayer is answered. With a rustle of rags and irreverence, Ludo appears. Like a marionette painted in funeral cloth and whimsy, it speaks and waves and, with a flick of some invisible string, the once-feral Revived Child stills. The little corpse stands upright, head tilted. Then, without irony, it reaches for Koa ’s hand with a bony little clack. If it could smile, it might.
But not all is calmed.
From the fog, the Priestess reemerges—silent as a sigh and twice as cold. Her ghostly claws reach for Jack, and this time, they land. They rake through his coat at the shoulder, sinking into the leather and canvas. But the material holds. No mark. No blood. The sound of ripping fabric is loud in the muffled air, but Jack stays standing.

Spectral Villis (Uncommon/Mythical): These spirits, once seeking vengeance, have become void-infused spectres. Their wails echo with the void's malevolence, and they manifest in shadows to terrorize the living. Those touched by a Spectral Villi are left with a void mark, a curse that attracts further void corruption.
