The final preview before this section of the game goes live in the Alpha Build. Since this particular variation guest-stars Cassandra, it won't be available for... awhile. But there are plenty of other Harbingers you can serenade instead.

Just wrote (and bugtested) this bit of coding craziness today. Watch as no one actually ends up triggering the pun for this. Quick someone name their MC some variation of 'Casey' (and then have claustrophobia).

...I imagine that some MCs might still be interested in this scenario even though it does nothing to help deal with their phobia.

A variation of the solo darkness phobia scene that'll be awhile before it possible to normally trigger (since it takes place at night and also mentions the presence of Gwen and Lorelei).

High Guard
aka Hawke Guard/"Posta de falcone" (Italian),

aka From the roof/"Vom Dach"/"Vom Tag" (German)
Sometimes called Upper Guard/"Oberhut"
