After successfully escaping Fort Joy and having the Source collar removed in Divinity: Original Sin 2, your journey continues aboard the Elven ship known as the Lady Vengeance. Unlike typical ships, this vessel requires a unique approach to navigate, making it essential to engage with the environment and characters on board to set sail.
Your primary goal is to gather information from various NPCs and possible companions to learn how to operate the ship. An important task is to access Magister Dallis’ cabin to find the Ancient Songbook, which will unveil the melody needed to activate the ship’s mechanisms. If you feel uncertain about how to proceed, follow this comprehensive guide to progress through this exciting chapter.
Investigate Dead Bodies On The Ship
To begin your quest to get the Lady Vengeance sailing, tackle the puzzle elements scattered throughout the ship. Start by searching the bodies of magisters and gheists on the deck for valuable items and hints. One significant find is a Sodden Diary, which contains the password necessary to unlock a specific door in the ship’s cabin.
In addition to this password, you will also need to acquire a Strange Gem to interact with the door effectively.
Be on the lookout for a magic mirror located south of the stateroom doors. This mirror allows for unlimited character respecs. If you opt to persuade the second door, this mirror will help you adjust abilities for a successful check.
Find The Portside Stateroom Door In The Ship’s Quarters
With the password secured, proceed to enter the ship’s quarters to locate the next essential item needed for accessing the Portside Stateroom door. While here, take the time to engage with the NPCs, and consider adding suitable companions to your party for further adventures.
Your first stop should be Bishop Alexander, who is incapacitated and wearing a Source collar. Interact with him to reveal investigative dialogue options. Select “Look closely at his simple Regalia“to uncover the Strange Gem.
After acquiring the gem, make your way back to the Stateroom door. When you interact with the southern door, it will recognize the gem you possess. To unlock it, use the password you previously learned from the Sodden Diary. Choosing the option including “Fortitude“will grant you access to Dallis’ cabin, where more challenges await.
Inside Dallis’ cabin, you’ll also discover a concealed hatch guarded by two deadly gheists and a Teleportation Prism.
Finding The Ancient Empire Songbook To Get The Ship Moving
Once you step into Magister Dallis’ cabin, be sure to converse with Dallis and explore all dialogue options available. This compact cabin contains the Ancient Empire Songbook, prominently displayed on a pedestal. Reading it will prompt a revealing comment from your protagonist regarding the text’s mysterious nature.
Remember to interact with all NPCs present before initiating the ship’s movement. Once the ship begins its journey, opportunities to engage or swap out companions will no longer be available.
Getting The Ship Moving
Having obtained the melody necessary to navigate, make your way back to the ship’s deck and speak with Malady. Inform her of your discovery regarding the tome, which will prompt her to ask you to perform the song for the ship. Next, head to the western side of the deck to locate the dragon figurine. Interacting with it will prompt you to sing the song, allowing the Lady Vengeance to respond and open up further exploration into the ship before you embark on your next adventure in the world of the Godwoken.
Be prepared, as you will soon encounter a surprise ambush from formidable magisters, leading to an intense battle. Ensure your party is adequately prepared with companions to tackle this challenge.
