[Spoiler] So about one of the Warriors of Darkness

Spoiler[Discussion]

By which I mean the First's former heroes. I noticed something during the level 78 physical dps role quest, that we're apparently "missing" one of the group, an elven gladiator named Cyval I believe. I don't think she's a Sin Eater, and even in the credit's sequence render of them all in the tavern, she's hiding in the background. What happened to her? Does she have a story in-game? Did she just mysteriously die to the Shadowkeeper so no one remembers her?

I'm more interested in "which quest talks about her" rather than what actually happened, but either way, does anyone know?

Finish the four role quests and the final MSQ and you will get a fifth quest that will tell you. The quest is called "Shadow Walk With Me".

I’m so glad the answer isn’t “they forgot” or “maybe they’ll tell us later” but actually a really satisfying bonus story type answer

I was wondering her identity the whole time.

The role quest chains for EACH role, or just one of the individual chains?

Each. You need to finish all four roles (tank, physical dps, magical dps, and healer) to unlock Shadow Walk With Me

She also appears plotting some evil during the healer's quest. If she appears on the physical DPS quest, I assume she'll appear on all 4 quests and be relevant later.

I don't think she was plotting evil, I think she was enjoying the sight of her dwarf friend enjoying the company of Aldbert. At least, that's how it came across to me.

Cyval is quite obviously the ascian that made sure that the light would get imbalanced in the first
