Volcano Manor Apparition
This nameless ghost once served Praetor Rykard but abandoned him when Rykard’s ambitions turned depraved. Now he lingers inside Volcano Manor, hoping that some strong Tarnished will finally end what his lord has become.
He only shows up while Rykard, Lord of Blasphemy is still alive, and only after you have reloaded the area three times. You find him at the end of the corridor with the Drawing Room.
