Path of Exile – Settlers of Kalguur: Act 4 - The Beast Awakens

After the harrowing battle in the heart of Sarn, Predator_SoK, the unyielding Duelist, embarks on a perilous journey to the remote and foreboding city of Highgate. In Act 4, the stakes are higher than ever as the exile enters a land steeped in ancient power and haunted by a darkness that predates even the Eternal Empire.

Highgate, a former mining city now under the watchful eyes of the Maraketh, stands as the last bastion against a terror long forgotten. The Maraketh warriors guard the very mountain where their legendary leader, Sekhema Deshret, sealed away the Beast—an unimaginable horror that once shattered the Eternal Empire. But now, the Beast stirs in its slumber, and its dark master, Malachai, seeks to awaken it fully, hoping to remake the world in the twisted image of Nightmare.

As Predator_SoK steps into Highgate, he is met by Lady Dialla, a figure shrouded in mystery and tragedy. She implores the Duelist to descend into the mountain’s depths and destroy the Beast before it can rise again. The path ahead is fraught with peril as Predator_SoK must traverse treacherous mines, navigate the twisted labyrinths beneath Highgate, and face the monstrous creations of Malachai’s dark ambitions.

The journey through Act 4 is a descent into madness, as Predator_SoK battles through the heart of the mountain, confronting the horrors that dwell within. The final confrontation with the Beast and its master will test the Duelist’s resolve and strength like never before. It is not just a fight for survival but a battle to prevent the entire world from being consumed by Nightmare.

As the shadows of the mountain close in, will Predator_SoK find the strength to destroy the Beast and thwart Malachai’s apocalyptic vision? Or will he fall, like so many before him, to the overwhelming darkness that lurks beneath Highgate? Act 4 is a crucible where heroes are forged or broken, and the fate of Wraeclast hangs in the balance.
