Talk with Aldhelm at the top level, who will tell you to speak with
Icantha. He will also ask you to send him something tasty, and
promises to tell you a secret about the machine if you do.
Exit the tower and proceed to Icantha's House, which is directly
north of the tower.
Speak with Icantha and convince her to share her knowledge of
how the tower works. Most dialogue will lead to you convincing her
to give you the control words.
Optional: Send Aldhelm a victim for him to feed upon.

If you have cleared the undead from Heritage Hill (though this
isn't a strict requirement), you can free the prisoners in the
back room of Icantha's House for a Defiance Bay: Minor

you can trick them into going to the top of the tower where
Aldhelm will feed on them.
Alternatively, you can trick Saeda to the same end, if you
haven't completed Safe Haven.

If you sent Aldhelm something to eat, he teaches you how to

absorb all the souls from the machine. Doing so gives your main
character the talent Gift from the Machine (+1 Might, +5%
maximum endurance), increases your Cruel reputation, and gives
you Defiance Bay: Moderate Positive.

This talent carries over to Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire, and

10000 The Acolyte showed me a vision of an ancient tower in a

derelict district of Defiance Bay. There was a strange man in
the tower working on some kind of machine. I also saw a
woman with a scar over her heart. I don't know where she is,
HOME
but I suspect that she holds the key to whatever happened
there.
The Leaden Key was interested in this tower for a reason. I
GAMES
need to understand what it does if I'm to figure out their
plans.

1 Enter the tower in Heritage Hill.

ANIME
10001 The tower I saw looms above the walls surrounding Heritage
Hill. I hope to find the next piece of the puzzle there.

MOVIES
20000 The guard at the gate to Heritage Hill said I'd need special
permission from Wyla at the keep in First Fires to enter.
Of course, a hefty application of coin or violence might also
convince him to let me in.

20006 I've found the pale woman from the acolyte's vision, but she
is uninterested in helping me. Perhaps finding the man from

VIDEO the vision will give me better insight as to how to deal with
her.

2 Get to the top of the tower in Heritage Hill.

WIKIS 10002 The Acolyte's vision didn't prepare me for what I've found
here. The whole district is crawling with reanimated corpses.
Fighting my way to the top of the tower - and whatever
START A
WIKI
awaits me there - won't be easy.

3 Find out how the Engwithan machine in Heritage Hill works.

10003 I've found an ancient machine at the top of the tower. And,
just as the Acolyte showed me, there's someone else up
here.
He may be able to tell me more about what happened here.

20001 I've killed the gul that I saw at the top of the tower in the
Acolyte's vision. I think he was trying to figure out how to
operate the Engwithan machine. He obviously hadn't
cracked it yet, but he may have something that can give me
a chance.

4 Find Icantha.

10004 I need to speak with Icantha in Heritage Hill. She apparently

knows something important about the tower, which may be
my key to understanding the Leaden Key's objectives.
That would explain why the Acolyte was worried about this
woman.

20004 Aldhelm, the devolving animancer atop the tower, promised

to show me a way to strengthen myself if I get the command
words from Icantha and a source of sustenance for him.

6 Deal with the Engwithan machine.

10006 Now that I can understand the Engwithan language, I can

return to machine at the top of Teir Nowneth and do
something about the curse affecting Heritage Hill.

20005 Aldhelm has degenerated significantly - he looked ready to

pounce on me when I tried to talk to him. If I want his help,
Honest Game Trailers - St…
I'll need to send a victim to him.

7 Find the tower.

10007 The Leaden Key acolyte showed me an ancient tower near a

cemetery in a neighborhood filled with run-down estates.
Following this lead will require locating the tower. Asking
around would be a place to start, perhaps among the
