Choice rewards are marked separately. ### Item Rewards - **Quest Reward** — [Memories' End: Ancient Stone Chamber](/item/65797.md) ## Summary I've lost count of how many times I've been through this, but... you can't defeat me, nobody has ever been able to beat me. For all of you are mere shells that only contain my appearance and memories. I can prove that I am the real Francesca Seric. For there is an end to all the memories we share, especially regarding you and my very being, as disturbing as that may seem. Have you sent the Invitation from S to the Kalis Parliament? Or is the King's Key in your possession? I know very well that you can't answer for naught. For you didn't send that invitation, nor is the key in your hands. I sent the Invitation from S, and Dahad Seric... I also have the King's Key given to me by my father. For I have received the power of the distorted goddess, and am raising my army in the land vacated by the witch. I thought now is the time, hence I sent the warning to the Kalis parliament, and yet, why do you minions keep popping up to stand in my way? You are but an illusion made by the Ahib queen who refused my offer of alliance. There is no doubt about it. You can never become me! At the first border of where you and I do not share a memory of, I shall kill you, to be acknowledged by the distorted goddess! ## Contacts - **Turn-in** — [Francesca Seric](/npc/59424.md) ## Related Quests Nearby quests from the same group, prerequisite quests, quest chains, and branch choices. ### Earlier Steps - [[Nova Awakening] The Witch's Army](/quest/459119.md) ### Quest Group Entries Other entries in the same quest group, shown in in-game order.
