Walkthrough[edit]

Break down the Funhouse door and advance to the main room, defeating the Inquest as you progress. In the main room you will need to destroy the soul-generators. As they are destroyed, more enemies will be released, so defeat them before destroying the next generator. Once all the generators have been destroyed, a short cut-scene will play and a few more Inquest appear. Once they have been handled you must choose a course of action.

Dialogue[edit]

At start of instance:

Kazz: Is this the place? Lead the way. I just hope we find the device in time to save Doxa.

Upon entering the Funhouse:

Kazz: Look at this place. This is genius unbound by morality, with a heaping helping of jerk.

After defeating the Inquest beside the generators:

Kazz: The machine we need is behind that barrier. Smash those generators and bring it down!

When destroying the generators:

Kazz: Watch out! That power surge woke those experiments up, and they don't look happy!
Inquest Golemancer laughs with <Character name>.
Ettin: Little big ears hurt me. Smash little big ears!
Ettin: Me kill tiny needle-poke men. Kill!
SRV 3296: Why, oh—why—was—I—programmed—to—feel—pain?
Kazz: Careful, those generators keep the holding cells shut. Be ready for anything.
Ogre Brute: Now we'll see how much pain you can stand.
Ettin: Now I give back pain you gave me!

After destroying all six generators:

Kazz: The barrier's down. Let's go.

Talking to allies before retrieving the Metaphysic Fusion Device:

Kazz: I hope we can acquire the Metaphysic Fusion Device without too much trouble. Or bloodshed.
Talk end option tango.png We can, but how much blood is shed is up to the Inquest.
Zojja: I'm not sure the Metaphysic Fusion Device will be enough, even with my input. But if it helps your friends and harms the Inquest, I'm willing to try.
Talk end option tango.png That's all we can ask. It's our best—our only—chance.

Cinematic after inspecting the Metaphysic Fusion Device:

Zojja: Wait: this won't work. You saw the lab full of failures in there. The Inquest golems were out of control, dangerous...more golem than pilot.
Zojja: I think this Recursive Feedback device only fuses people to golems. I don't think it can extract a person from one.
<Character Name>: Can we repurpose it, make it do what we want? If we do nothing, we could lose her entirely. We have to try.
Kazz: That may kill her anyway. There is another option: we use the Inquest device to put me inside another golem. Then at least Doxa and I can be together.
Zojja: That's crazy. You could both die, or have your personalities totally subsumed. Then you'd just watch helplessly as your golem bodies go bonkers.
Kazz: It's worth it...for her. She's everything to me. Listen, I know I'm not thinking clearly here. You're our friend, our krewemate, and I trust you.
Kazz: I need your input. Should we try to extract Doxa, and maybe kill her? Or fuse me with a golem, and maybe kill us both?

Talking to allies before deciding:

Mr.Sparkles: Standing—by. Until—I—have—tabulated—the—data, please—speak—to—Zojja.
Talk end option tango.png Got it.
Zojja: We're in a grey area here. Fusing people with golems is Inquest territory. If you need a second opinion, I'd be happy to offer mine.
Talk more option tango.png I would like to hear your input.
I'll answer as best I can...which will be amazingly good, as you'll see. Ask away.
Talk more option tango.png What are the dangers of separating Doxa from the MIG?
If it doesn't kill her, she could be stuck fused to it, or stay fused and go insane, or be unfused and still go insane. I'm 82% confident none of those will happen.
Talk end option tango.png Those aren't great odds. I need to think.
Talk more option tango.png I have another question.
I'll answer as best I can...which will be amazingly good, as you'll see. Ask away.
Talk more option tango.png What are the dangers of separating Doxa from the MIG? (same as above)
Talk more option tango.png What's the risk if fusing Kazz with another golem? (same as below)
Talk more option tango.png What's the risk if fusing Kazz with another golem?
He could lose his mind—literally. It could just drift off, disconnected from either body. Or he could simply die...or go berserk like Doxa did. He'll definitely lose his looks.
Talk end option tango.png Your optimism needs work, and I need to think.
Talk more option tango.png I have another question. (same as above)
Talk end option tango.png Thanks. I need to think this over.
Talk end option tango.png Thanks, but I have all the data I need to decide.
Kazz: I'm sorry, but I have to leave this decision up to you. Are we going to risk lives by trying to put me in a golem, or by trying to get Doxa out?
Talk quest choice tango.png Anything the Inquest builds, we can improve. We're extracting Doxa. (Leads to Defusing the Problem)
I hope you're right. If Doxa dies, or vanishes into the golem's magi-mechanical mind, it'll be the end for me, too.
Talk end option tango.png Trust me, Kazz. We can do this.
Talk quest choice tango.png I don't like it, but I think it's safer to put you in a golem. We're fusing you. (Leads to The Things We Do For Love)
You know, it sounds crazy, even when you say it. But I trust you. If the choice is be a golem with Doxa, or be without Doxa, it's the easiest choice I've ever made. Let's go.
Talk end option tango.png You two clearly need each other. I just hope we can make it work.
Talk more option tango.png Let's review our options.
We can try to unfuse Doza[sic] from the MIG, but that could kill her. We can try to fuse me to a golem so that Doxa and I can be together, but that could kill me. It's risky either way.
Talk back option tango.png Very risky. I'm not sure I can choose.
Talk end option tango.png I need more time to ponder this.

After choosing to extract Doxa:

Zojja: We're done here. Let's get back to the lab and see if we can perform a golemectomy.
Kazz: Technically, it's a Doxa-ectomy because we're removing her from...oh, never mind. I just want her safe.
Zojja: Don't be so glum. If the Inquest shows up, we could all die, and then it won't matter.
Mr.Sparkles: Merging—flesh—with—metal—is—tricky. So—is—unmerging. I—prefer—the—pilot—golem—interface—I—use—with—Zojja. It's—just—as—efficient—and—far—safer.
Talk end option tango.png Agreed. But we have to press on, for Kazz and Doxa's sake.
Zojja: It was a tough call. I respect your alacrity. I'm also relieved nobody will blame me if things go wrong. Anyway, Mr. Sparkles and I are standing by for you.
Talk end option tango.png Thanks. I'll definitely need your help.
Kazz: The only thing keeping me going is the chance to see Doxa free of that golem.
Talk end option tango.png Don't worry. We'll get her out.

After choosing to merge Kazz into a golem:

Zojja: All right. We need to do this someplace less inhabited to avoid undue attention.
Kazz: There's a facility in Desider Atum that would work. It's where Doxa and I went on our first date... Oh, Doxa.
Zojja: And now you'll be reunited there as golems. Or die trying. Either way, it'll be over soon.
Mr.Sparkles: Merging—flesh—with—metal—is—tricky. So—is—unmerging. I—prefer—the—pilot—golem—interface—I—use—with—Zojja. It's—just—as—efficient—and—far—safer.
Talk end option tango.png Agreed. But we have to press on, for Kazz and Doxa's sake.
Zoja: It was a tough call. I respect your alacrity. I'm also relieved nobody will blame me if things go wrong. Anyway, Mr. Sparkles and I are standing by for you.
Talk end option tango.png Thanks. I'll definitely need your help.
Kazz: Will Doxa and I recognize each other as golems? Will we still be...us?
Talk end option tango.png Hard to say. You will still have the same strong asura hearts, metal body aside.

My story[edit]

Monkey Wrench.jpg

Kazz, Zojja, and I forced our way into the Funhouse and saw some of the horrific experiments they were conducting. We retrieved the information we needed, but there's no guarantee it will help Doxa. I discussed options with Kazz, and we decided that reuniting him with Doxa is worth any risk.

My story

Notes[edit]

Destroying the Soul Cell Generators before it becomes an objective halts progress. When this happens, the instance needs to be restarted.
