Walkthrough[edit]
Go to the mission location and enter the marker. You will see the Ringmaster talking to some recruits. As you approach, there will be a cutscene. When the cutscene stops, you will be surrounded by monsters. Once you attack them enough, they turn green and stop fighting. A "Monster" arrives, and once it's killed, you've finished this part of your personal story.

Dialogue[edit]
Cinematic with the Ringmaster:
- Ringmaster: Your attention, please! Welcome, my dear little clowns and fools, to the dress rehearsal for the big show in Divinity's Reach! We're going to bring the house down!
- Ringmaster: Today, we're testing the circus's greatest attraction to date! Behold, Uzolan's Floating Grizwhirl! Gaze upon the grizwhirl. Clear your minds completely.
- Ringmaster: Look around, ninny-bells. Where are your friends? Whatever will you do? For the survivors, it'll be a night to remember! And now, it's time for me to bow out.
- <Character name>: Woah! My head is spinning. I... where did all the recruits go? What? We're under attack!
During the battle (said as they hit 50%):
- Monster: You won't get me! I'll kill you! I'll kill you all!
- Monster: I don't want to die! Please, somebody save me!
- Monster: Oh, gods, what's happening! Stay away from me, you beasts!
- Monster: Get away! Monsters! You're all monsters!
- Monster: The Ringmaster's right! We have to fight back! Kill them all!
When additional spawns arrive:
- Monster: The Hero of Shaemoor has lost it! I need help over here!
When the final Monster arrives:
- Monster: Hey, take it easy! What do you think you're doing?
- Monster: Wake up! I don't want to hurt you!
- Monster: It's me! Logan! Logan Thackeray!
Cinematic with Logan:
- <Character name>: Get away from me, you—
- Logan Thackeray: Stop! It's me. It's Logan. Get ahold of yourself! The Ringmaster has affected your mind!
- <Character name>: What? Logan? But—
- Logan Thackeray: Blessed Lyssa, I thought I was gonna have to knock you out. You were attacking unarmed civilians and my Seraph. Luckily, even in your confusion, you held back.
- <Character name>: On some level, I knew it wasn't real. My mind is stronger than his usual victim. Victims! By the gods, Logan, he was going to use the Floating Grizwhirl in Divinity's Reach!
- Logan Thackeray: If the Ringmaster creates this kind of hysteria in the city, many will die. We have to shut down the carnival.
- <Character name>: No, wait. If you do that, he'll just hide until we're least expecting him. It would be better to catch him in the act.
- Logan Thackeray: It's risky, but I agree. He doesn't know you're a spy. You can keep an eye on him, and we'll strike when he makes his move.
Talking to NPCs after cinematic:
- Logan Thackeray: That Ringmaster is trouble, but he loves having an audience. It won't be long before he strikes again—and more publicly.
- He'll be able to command them to do anything. A personal army of slaves, just waiting for the Ringmaster to give them a target.
- We'll stop him before it comes to that.
If he's determined to do this, he'll want the biggest crowd possible. That could be tremendously dangerous.
- I will be. See you there.
- Seraph Soldier: Glad you're on our side. When I saw the look in your eye, I thought I was dead.
- Seraph Soldier: You were holding back, weren't you? Thank the gods! I'd hate to see you go all out.
