First up is Kiral, who stands before a board in the hall. Kiral asks you to repeat what Londra said about where eternity lies when he "sat with us". This is referring to the hologram display of Londra that has you sit down on a chair TV presenter style. You'll then be presented with three different options and you'll want to choose "A new world" in order to learn the Words of Attainment.

Alternatively, you can also speak to Lan and Ostou who are seated on the right hand side of where Brenik is standing. After Lan leaves, Ostou will agree to help you and says the Words of Attainment are related to what Londra "values most about his friends", which he speaks of in the hologram of him standing before a party holding an award. With three possible answers to give, you'll want to choose the response "They were dedicated"

Once you give one of the correct answers above, you should be given the Words of Attainment - "Only through devotion may I embrace his light. Only through him may I ascend to a new world" - to pass through the door.

I started out writing for the games section of a student-run website as an undergrad, and continued to write about games in my free time during retail and temp jobs for a number of years. Eventually, I earned an MA in magazine journalism at Cardiff University, and soon after got my first official role in the industry as a content editor for Stuff magazine. After writing about all things tech and games-related, I then did a brief stint as a freelancer before I landed my role as a staff writer here at GamesRadar+. Now I get to write features, previews, and reviews, and when I'm not doing that, you can usually find me lost in any one of the Dragon Age or Mass Effect games, tucking into another delightful indie, or drinking far too much tea for my own good.
