"The Heart Of Lorkhan is an unbelievably powerful artifact; it had the power to create, or level, entire realities...

I didn't destroy the Dwemer race the day I struck it so long ago...

...I saved it..."
==========


Some time after the events that took place at the Dwarven Mines, you finally find time to relax; as you lean back onto your bed, before you know it, you've fallen into a deep sleep. But, after experiencing a horrific dream, only one thought remains in your mind...

He's back...

Once again playing the hero, you come across Cinder, a highly intelligent Atronach that lived inside the Dwarven Mines up until it's collapse, who has been "employed" by a wandering Merchant; helping her find others like herself, you stumble across a new city called Spectrum, which, strangely enough, you have no recollection of ever having existed. Discover the secrets behind this puzzling city and it's inhabitants, while trying to discover the location of the Geomancer, and putting his destructive intents to sleep once and for all...


To begin "Chapter 2 - The Society Of The Atronach", simply fall asleep in any bed, and you will experience the dream; DO NOT activate "Chapter 2 - The Society Of The Atronach" until after you have completed the first chapter's storyline to prevent conflict issues...

"Chapter 2 - The Society Of The Atronach" consists of eighteen individual quests, nine of which relate to the Main Storyline, and nine additional Side Quests:

aaaSOTAQuest11 - "The White Atronach"

------------------------------------------------------------
aaaSOTAQuest12 - "Lesser Of Two Evils"

With Cinder the White Atronach hanging around your neck, and the fate of the entire city of Spectrum resting on your shoulders, you head through the Spirit Portal in the shrine beneath the city, and head after the Geomancer before he can escape, but little do either of you realize, there is a far greater evil looming in the shadows...
