After the Generals are defeated, players are given the option to choose between one of two final quests: One Last Stand, and The Dragon Knight's Curse

Final Questline[ | ]

After the four generals have been defeated, players can choose between One Last Stand or The Dragon Knight's Curse. Accepting one will lock the players out of the other quest. This cannot be reversed.

One Last Stand[ | ]

All things can be redeemed, but only through dedication and sacrifice. Things may never be what they once were, but life will flourish again.
