The world of Remnant 2 is filled with cryptic quests and environmental puzzles that challenge players’ wits and combat prowess. One of the standout events in the Losomn realm revolves around the Fae Council’s dark secret: identifying the betrayer who plunged the One True King into eternal slumber. This guide breaks down every phase of the quest, from initial discovery to final judgment, ensuring you navigate the dual realities of light and shadow with precision.

Accessing the Heart of Fae Intrigue

Your journey begins in the opulent yet eerie halls of the Beatific Palace on Losomn. To reach the Council Chamber, you must first secure a pivotal tool: the Magic Quill. This item enables portal creation on specific chalk-marked walls, bridging different sections of the palace.

  • Descend to the lower levels of the palace, where decay and bones litter the corridors.
  • Seek out the Jester’s hidden chamber—a small room brimming with skeletal remains. Defeat any lurking foes and claim the Quill from within.
  • Exit the room, turn left, and spot the faded chalk outline on the wall. Activate it with the Quill to open a gateway straight to the Council Chamber.

Upon arrival, ascend the short staircase to confront the three Fae councilors: Savan (left), Oniril (center), and Nyele (right). They reveal their impasse—one among them aided an imposter in the regicide attempt, but impartiality binds them from self-investigation. Your role as an outsider makes you the perfect arbiter.

Crossing into the Shadow Realm

To gather proof, venture beyond the chamber. Exit leftward and navigate a series of winding staircases until you encounter a room dominated by a shimmering, obsidian mirror. Interacting with this portal whisks you to the Council Tribunal—a darkened mirror image of the original chamber, teeming with hostile entities.

Clear the area methodically: prioritize ranged attacks on distant threats while closing in on melee opponents. Once secured, observe the council seats. Their watery reflections display the light realm’s configuration, with the Fae seated in their thrones—a vital clue for the impending puzzle.

Deciphering the Sigil Alignment Puzzle

At the base of each council seat lies a unique Sigil Key, each bearing distinct colors and symbols: a blue diamond on the left, a pinkish eye in the center, and purple mirrors on the right. The reflections show these sigils in mismatched positions, demanding exact replication.

RightPurple MirrorsPlace purple sigil here

Collect the sigils from the seats and rearrange them to mirror the reflection precisely. Success triggers the massive door behind the thrones to grind open, unveiling the throne room and the comatose One True King.

Delving into the Throne Room Secrets

Approach the throne cautiously, flanked by elite guardians. Maneuver around the sides to stone steps leading upward. Leap to the adjacent ledge to loot the Assassin’s Seal—a ring granting 25% reduced enemy detection and bonus damage against unaware foes.

From this vantage, scale higher and jump to the throne’s rear. Wedged in the monarch’s neck is the Assassin’s Dagger, the quest’s smoking gun. Pocket it without delay, as it’s imperative for the accusation phase.

Analyzing the Evidence: The Dagger’s Secret

Return to your inventory and inspect the dagger under quest items. Rotate it to view the hilt’s base, where a telltale sigil glows—matching one of the councilors’ markers. This randomization ensures replayability; in one instance, it implicates Savan with the blue diamond, but it could point to Oniril’s eye or Nyele’s purple mirrors.

  • Blue Diamond: Savan (left chair)
  • Pink Eye: Oniril (center chair)
  • Purple Mirrors: Nyele (right chair)

Memorize this symbol before portaling back to the light realm via the mirror.

Delivering Judgment in the Council Chamber

Reconvening with the council, select the dialogue option to present the dagger as evidence. Accuse the corresponding member explicitly. Correct identification triggers execution by spectral forces, yielding the Ornate Blade—a stylish melee weapon with cosmetic flair and solid stats.

Erroneous accusations falter without proof, potentially locking out rewards. Always inspect the dagger first to unlock the evidential prompt.

Advanced Strategies and Common Pitfalls

Losomn’s procedural generation means layouts vary, but the core sequence remains constant. Stock healing items and ammo before the Tribunal, as enemy density spikes in shadows.

Frequent Errors to Avoid:

  • Forgetting the Magic Quill—backtrack via fast travel if missed.
  • Misaligning sigils—double-check reflections before committing.
  • Skipping dagger inspection—no symbol reveal without it.
  • Rushing accusations—randomization demands evidence review each run.

Exclusive Rewards and Progression Impact

Beyond the Ornate Blade, success unlocks lore fragments on Fae politics and advances Losomn’s storyline. The Assassin’s Seal enhances stealth builds, ideal for sniper or rogue archetypes. Pair it with shadow-enhancing mods for synergistic gameplay.

This quest exemplifies Remnant 2’s blend of Soulslike combat and puzzle-solving, rewarding patience and observation.
