unforgivable spell

The three dark spells, considered the most dangerous and evil spells in the wizarding world, are popular keywords for Harry Potter fans, for better or worse.

The Unforgiven Spell appeared in Harry Potter as the killing curse Avada Kedavra, the torture curse Crucio, and the mind control curse Imperio. The punishment for using these spells was life imprisonment in Azkaban, the wizarding prison.

This work is set before the world of Harry Potter, and the three spells introduced above exist in the same way.

Learn unforgivable spells

Unforgivable spells can be learned through Sebastian-related side quests, but you can’t learn them if you make a mistake in the choices that appear in the dialogue. “As I said earlier, this seems to be related to leaving it up to the player’s will to learn or not.”

As mentioned above, there seems to be a corresponding quest, but at the moment I am writing this article, I am learning Crucio and Imperio.

What is in the darkness of time

Sebastian, who is searching for a way to cure his sister Anne’s illness, one day obtains a report left by a Slytherin student. The content of this quest is to explore the catacombs in order to obtain the relics listed in the report.

Occurrence conditions in the darkness of time

This side quest is related to Sebastian. It’s a little complicated to explain in a document, but you can challenge “In the Darkness of Discovery” that can be challenged by clearing “In the Darkness of the Study” and “Fire and Wickedness” that occur as you progress through the main story. [In the darkness of time] will occur.

In short, it is a quest that you will eventually reach by proceeding with the main quest and clearing all the Sebastian-related quests that appear.

How to open the door (mystery solving element)

The answer is to use Axio and Deparso to collect bones and form an arch around the door. In order to reach the depths of the underground cemetery, it is necessary to open two doors, and each door has a different process for collecting bones.

To repeat what I said, you need to gather bones to create an arch to open the door. For this, the same work is required for both the first and second doors, and the difference between the two lies in the process of collecting bones.

It is impossible to complete the arch with only visible bones. There is also a door on this floor that can be pried open with Deparso, and if you go inside and pull the handle on the wall with Axio, a bone will appear.

The second door is to open the rune-engraved door and find the bones to gather the necessary number of bones for the arch. Here, you use Axio to pull the handle that corresponds to the rune carved into the door you want to open, but only one door has bones in it.

Conversation selection is important for learning Imperio

For all unforgivable spells, the player decides whether to learn them or not. However, if you choose the wrong conversation options, you will have unintended consequences, so you need to be careful. Crucio and Avada Kedavra can be easily judged by looking at their dialogue options, but this Imperio is a little more complicated.
In the Darkness of Time, the conversation between Sebastian and Ominis, who appears at the end of the game, will determine whether or not to acquire Imperio.

After opening the first door, a conversation with Sebastian will occur. It’s easy to make a choice here. If you don’t want to learn Imperio, you can select “I don’t want to learn the spell of obedience”, and if you want to learn it, select “I want to learn the spell of obedience”.

If you select the one you want to learn, you will proceed to the learning command as it is. “With this, you will be able to use Imperio in subsequent battles.” If you want to keep this in mind, you need to succeed in Ominis’ dialogue options that appear at the end of the game.

After finding the relic, Ominis will appear. A conversation with Ominis will start here, and if you answer the two choices correctly, Imperio will be able to retain the state he remembered. Here, we will explain on the premise that you will remember, so if you do not want to remember, please select the opposite option.

If you want to remember, choose like this!

clear in the darkness of time

In order to clear the darkness of time, after leaving the catacombs with Sebastian, he will move to the village where his sister Anne is and help eliminate the raiders. In order to help Anne here, Sebastian will use Imperio and will be banned from his uncle Solomon who saw it.
I felt that it was a quest where the player’s mind was divided into two, whether Solomon’s opinion was correct or not. For those who haven’t cleared it, let’s experience the scene and compare it with your own way of thinking.
