Darkdiver Grandahl Information

• Allows the player to join the Pilgrims of Dark

Encounters

Shaded Woods. In the Shaded Ruins--hole in the ground covered by high grass that is boarded up. It is prior to the ramp leading up to the boss fight and just after the large trap area (which drops into a cave with multiple Basilisks).
Black Gulch. In a hidden room accessed using the Forgotten Key. There is a ledge you can drop onto off the main path, with an arch door.
Drangleic Castle. Near the King's Gate bonfire there is a large room with a set of closed doors that open when an enemy is killed near them. Behind the farthest door to the left there is a broken floor that will crumble when you walk over it. This will lead you to a bonfire (Under Drangleic Castle) and Darkdiver Grandahl.

Dialogue

- When encountered the first time
Ahh, look how far this Undead has wandered.
And a very fit Undead you are.
A bit too alive, but with a darkish shadow. Yet still unprepared. For a deeper Dark.
And like every Undead, you have no future.
Ooh, my, don't mind me. I'm just talking amongst myself.
But if you find a need for a truer Dark, then meet again, we shall.

- When talking a second time during the first encounter
The Dark is still nascent within you. May the Dark shine your way…
(or)
May we meet again, somewhere, some time…

- When encountered a second time
Young Undead, don't let this curse weigh upon you.
We meet a second time. Perhaps you will yet traverse the Dark.
Young Undead, if you truly seek the Dark, then we will surely meet again.

- When talking a second time during the second encounter
The Dark is still nascent within you. May the Dark shine your way…
(or)
May we meet again, somewhere, some time…

- When encountered a third time / Original request to join covenant
We meet again, young Undead.
You have the look of a true seeker.
I am Darkdiver Grandahl, seeker of Dark, giver of Dark.
If you seek true Dark, I will grant it to you. As much as you desire.
Well, then…Is Dark what you wish for?

1. Answer "yes"
   There you are, you are now a Pilgrim of Dark.
   The Dark Chasm beckons you.
   Those drawn to the Dark are destined to seek it.
2. Answer "no"
   Hmm…Perhaps I was wrong.
   No, no, just ignore me.
   Young Undead, may the Dark shine your way.

- Second request to join covenant
We meet again, young Undead.
Do you wish to be guided by Dark?

1. Answer "yes"
   There you are, you are now a Pilgrim of Dark.
   The Dark Chasm beckons you.
   Those drawn to the Dark are destined to seek it.
2. Answer "no"
   Then choose your own path.

- When talking to him to open the interaction menu before opening entrance to Dark Chasm of Old
Finally, you are here, young Undead.
Now, open the depths of darkness.
Young Undead, the Dark awaits you.

- When talking to him to open the interaction menu after opening entrance to Dark Chasm of Old
Young Undead, what do you desire?

- When leaving
May the Dark shine your way.

- When walking off without closing the menu
As you wish, yes, as you wish.

- When offering humanity effigy
The mouth to the Dark Chasm is not normally open.
If you seek the Dark, young Undead, you must offer a human effigy.

1. Answer "yes"
   Young Undead, may the Dark shine your way.
2. Answer "no"
   Yes, very well, as you wish.

- Using 'Talk' option
The embrace of the Dark is gentle. Let it absorb your sorrows, forever.

- Reach Rank 1 in the Pilgrims of the Dark covenant
Young Undead, the Dark beset upon you runs deeper than I had imagined.
Let us see just how much Dark you can endure.
You have seen Dark that has existed from times long past.
What once was a great void of darkness became but fragments.
But slowly, the scattered fragments grew, absorbing all things.
It is we who will be pilgrims to these sacred sites.

- Reach Rank 2 in the Pilgrims of the Dark covenant
I knew that you were special.
You are a true Pilgrim of Dark.
There is more Dark within you than even you know.
Dark is the mother of all. All things were born from it.

- Reach Rank 3 in the Pilgrims of the Dark covenant
Young Undead, you've discovered the truest Dark within you.
A deep, deep Dark it is.
The Dark that we must all face.
We need the Abyss, more now than ever.

- When giving equipment to the player
Young Undead, my work is done…
I bequeath these to you. Take them on your pilgrimage…

- When attacked and aggroed
Young Undead, do you expect me to just keel over?

- When killing the player
The Dark within you is faded and pale…

- When killed
The Dark…how could you…
