Exact quest requirements
Prerequisite: Sigils of the Null
- 5 × Kernel Embers — collect objective
Quest text: The seal on the Core was wrought with kernel-fire — the first fire of the dream, from before the Null had a name — and only kernel-fire will let us pass without tearing it wide open. The surges of the Array carry embers of that first forging in their cores. Bring me five Kernel Embers, the Witness — for if the cult opens that gate first, they will not be careful, and the Daemon will not wake gently.
