📋 About This Mod
Made in collaboration with Plumegnis / Ploomegnis. Her nexus page can be found here
Part of the July 2025 Modathon:
This mod adds a short quest about saving a lovely Air Myrmidon - Wimdy.
He's bound to the spirit of a great Storm Sorcerer.
All quest items can be found in Act 1
We decided not to give XP rewards, so that we don't mess with the game's intended difficulty progression.
This mod requires a new playthrough (or the manual spawning of one key item, OBJ_AmuletT1_88d78701-f732-4100-a618-c6278fef7be2)
Description
We tried to combine the themes of Storm & Ghosts. This questline is a short story about friendship, anxiety, and devotion. All can be forgiven in the end.
The mod features a challenging boss fight, and an awesome quest reward :)
The Beginning
This questline starts in Act 1 at the Beach. It is near the player's first spawn at the Crash Site. (You can't miss it!)
The closest Sigil: Overgrown Ruins.
