Typical? I thought it was pretty dark, no pun intended. Typical would of been

The mother coming around and accepting her daughter, I thought this was where it would head with all the power of love crap they talked about in the previous quest. But nope. Instead Riore essentially orders her own mother's execution right in front of her, and Sid obliges in a slowmotion decapitation. Brutal. If this were less cartoonish/censored that would of been a grisly sight.

And if you talk to them after the quest it's implied that she may end up becoming a dark knight herself now, Sid says he would train her if that is her wish.

The story, both of them, were pretty great though. I thought the 50-60 arc suffered a bit due to it's need to be broken up into 6 segments but it was still pretty strong. The 30-50 arc though is my favorite job line in the game, so so good.

Fair enough. I can imagine that being more typical. But there was something about that slow motion:

Her facial expression changed completely. What was once crazed and everything was the actual look of a mother that did care for her daughter before her decapitation. It sent a different message. To me, it made it seem like she wasn't trying to kill of the 'Abomination' which was Rielle, but herself for what she did.

But it does seem like no one really saw that or I at least figured Rielle would have caught that.~

Only 57' but that 50 quest.... I knew who fray was from the start, but it was still awesome. I defintly know why it's locked behind the main story, as it even references the 2.55 events... But man, it was awesome.

The lvl 50 quest was great, I also enjoyed the lvl 45 quest. All the dialogues were like if SquareEnix was reading my mind, I feel so identified with this quest line, can't wait to play more since I'm still lvl 50

I had the exact same feeling, and after doing my level 60 quest I feel it did not end in a "typical" manner.

So just hit 60 and fished up the quests and had a question

When rille says "How much more love you show for her than you did for me" was she talking to Sid about how he was going to spare her mothers life? Or was she talking to her mother about her devotion to Halone but not to her own daughter?

She was talking about the latter. Considering that was all she ever talked and exclaimed about. Hence her following comment:

"May you find peace her in her halls" or something of that nature

Oh man that level 58 quest.

Got to say the DRK quests have been the most epic out of the classes I've leveled. I just wish they'd last longer. :(

Honestly I think when the level cap increases and we get new skills I think its going to be void related. I mean the message when you get your last skill just screams it in my opinion and we gain power from negative emotions.
