Get to the Ivor's fortress and find the book needed for fighting Wither Storm. As soon as you will regain the control over your character, go to the next room (the one with Reuben) and look around it. To the left, by the Gabriel/Petra you shall find a chest. Take its contents and create a stick and a lever. Place it in the hole next to Reuben.
Go to the lower levels of laboratory and collect all of the items from the columns. There should be five of them and Soren will comment about each of them. His comments are important as they are the only clues to the puzzle. Your goal will be placing five items on the right places. Here is the right combination:
- Ghast Tears
- Prismarine
- Sea Lantern
- Packed Ice
- Dragon Egg

- The first button is placed on the sword pillar
In order to open the second door, approach the last stone by the bow and Use it. Pull the lever to activate the door.
This isn't possible! |
You said they were destroyed! |
What are they doing here? |

Is the Ender Dragon really dead? |
How did these get here? |
What's going on here? |
... |
What really happened? |
Have you been lying? |
I want the truth! |
... |
Then what DID you do? |
Will you just spit it out! |
This makes no sense! |
... |
I looked up to you! |
How could you lie? |
You're a cheat! |

Is this why you left the Order? |
Why did you do this? |
You knew about this? |

Sorry about punching you |
You're a mad man! |
How is it any better? |

We're wasting time! |
My friend is out there! |
We have to destroy it! |

How do I use the book? |
Let's get on with it |

Talk to the group and walk to the chest. Take its contents and use the workbench to create a weapon of your choice. It is also one of the Important Choices, which however, doesn't have an impact on the later events. You can create a hoe, a shovel, an axe or a pickaxe. After creating new diamond weapon walk to the anvil and fill it with a new power. To the left place a recently crafted weapon and to the right put Ivor's book. The next step will be crafting a new armour. You can either keep the one given to you from Magnus/Ellegaard or choose a new one. It is also one of the Important Choices, which however, doesn't have an impact on the later events.
The cavalry has arrived! |
Where's the amulet? |
Where's Magnus/Ellegaard? |

You don't want to know |
They're all fakes! |
I'll explain later |

Fight till the death! |
I made a weapon |

... |
What are you doing? |
You coward! |
Come back! |
