«Scene: the Broken Woods»
THE DARKBLOOD HAVE LONG WORSHIPPED THE QUEEN OF MONSTERS AS THE MOTHER OF OUR RACE.
AND WE HAVE IDOLIZED KOLYABAN AS THE FIRST OF OUR KIND.
BUT LOOKING AT THE DESTROYED LANDSCAPE AROUND US, I WONDER…
COULD WE SURVIVE HERE, ONCE THEIR WORK HAS BEEN FINISHED?
WOULD WE EVEN WANT TO?

«Scene: the Hero and Madra standing in the Broken Woods»
Hero: Well, here's hoping we won't have to find out.
Madra: Yes. From our home in Falguard, I had heard of your plans to stop her. To stop them both.
Madra: I… would like to help.
Hero: Really, now?
Hero: I'm not sure your people will like that very much.
Madra: My people are terribly misled. Kolyaban may thrive in the Plane of Monsters, but we would not.
Madra: If the Queen does succeed… if Kolyaban and her other children are able to transform Lore…
«Close up on Madra's face - Madra closes her eyes»
Madra: We will not survive. None of us will.
«Madra lifts her head»
Madra: The Darkblood may not see that now, but I will save them from it.
«Screen zooms out»
Madra: …we just need to figure out how.
Hero: I think I might have an idea.

«Scene: Cleric Joy's tent»
Hero: Madra, I'd like you to meet my friend, Cleric Joy.
«Madra and Cleric Joy shake hands»
Cleric Joy: It's so nice to meet you!
Cleric Joy: And it's good to see you, too!
Cleric Joy: Though once all of… this… started happening, I knew you'd find me eventually.
Cleric Joy: How can I help?
Hero: Back when we were fighting Drakath, your clerics tried to develop a cure for Chaorruption.
Cleric Joy: Yes, we did. What about it?
Hero: Well… I want you to continue your work on it.
Cleric Joy: Continue it?
Cleric Joy: <Hero>, we never stopped.
Cleric Joy: We've even some degrees of success! We still can't cure it entirely…
Cleric Joy: But our treatment can slow it down, and even reverse some minor symptoms.
Hero: Wow, really?
Cleric Joy: Really. You may have stopped fighting Chaos, but we never did.
Cleric Joy: But why are you asking about it now?
Hero: Well… we know that the Rift leads to the Plane of Monsters, which is where the Queen of Monsters is from.
Cleric Joy: Right.
Hero: But Drakath told me the Queen of Monsters was from the Realm of Chaos.
Madra: You think it's the same. Two names for one realm.
Hero: Exactly.
Hero: And while Drakath's chaorruption looked a very specific way, maybe pure chaos is different.
Cleric Joy: Which is why we aren't seeing any purple tentacles or randomly placed eyeballs this time.
Hero: Right.
Cleric Joy: I see.
Cleric Joy: And you think that maybe we can use our old cure as a base for reversing all of this.
Madra: It's worth looking into.
Cleric Joy: Alright, then. Let's get started.
