The Arcane Conclave — Children of the Sun Walkthrough
The Arcane Conclave is a pivotal faction questline in Children of the Sun, focusing on the enigmatic mages and their pursuit of ancient knowledge. Engaging with this faction will grant you access to powerful magical artifacts and insights into the world's arcane secrets.
To begin the questline for The Arcane Conclave, you must first gain entry into their secluded sanctuary, the Arcane Sanctum, located in the northern reaches of the Sunken City. This typically involves completing a prerequisite quest for the Conclave, often involving the retrieval of a lost tome or the defeat of a rogue mage. Once inside, you'll meet with Archmage Valerius, who will present you with your first major task: to investigate a series of strange magical disturbances emanating from the Crystal Caves. These caves are known for their volatile energies and are home to elemental creatures. Your objective is to reach the heart of the caves and deactivate a corrupted arcane nexus. Along the way, you'll encounter puzzles that require manipulating magical conduits and combat encounters against Crystal Golems and Mana Wraiths. Upon successfully deactivating the nexus, you'll receive a Conclave Sigil, a token of your growing allegiance. Subsequent quests for the Conclave might involve delving into forgotten ruins to recover ancient artifacts, such as the Orb of Scrying, or defending their research outposts from shadowy incursions. Each completed quest rewards you with Arcane Dust, Enchanting Essences, and reputation with the Conclave, unlocking access to their unique vendors and powerful magical gear.
