Great Hall

The Great Hall is the heart of the Caed Nua keep in Pillars of Eternity. To repair it the Main Keep upgrade must be purchased.

Background[edit | edit source]
The heart of all commerce and activity in the keep (once, at any rate), the Great Hall fell into disrepair under Maerwald's care.
Points of interest[edit | edit source]
- When you first enter, it's in a state of ruin, like most of Caed Nua. Restoring it with an upgrade allows you to receive adventures and get visitors
- When upgraded with Merchant Stalls, you can purchase weapons and armor from a merchant in a room on the east side.
- In the same room as the merchant there is a chest on the northeastern wall. This is where the following appear:
- Treasure from adventures
- Plant ingredients from the Botanical Gardens
- Purchases from visitors
- Just north of the main entrance are the stairs up to the Barracks.
- The door to the Library is located just east of the main entrance.
- The stairs down to the Dungeons are just north of the Steward. The keep was built directly over the Endless Paths of Od Nua, which can be accessed through the Dungeons.
Characters[edit | edit source]
- Steward: On the northeastern wall is a statue of a woman with antlers. In the main quest The Old Watcher you discover that she is the castle Steward.
- General Goods Merchant: Next to the treasury after completion of the Merchant Stalls Upgrade.
Companion reactions[edit | edit source]
Some companions have a special comment upon entering the hall:
- Edér: "Do you think he'd be mad if we sat in his chair? He doesn't have to know."
- Aloth: "Well, that's... unusual."
- Kana Rua: "Clearly of Aedyran make... They like their archways."
- Hiravias: "This place reeks of mildew and rotting wood. They don't build things to last anymore... not like the Engwithans did..."
- Pallegina: "Such an ominous throne for so humble a keep..."
- Sagani: "I wouldn't sit there if I were you."
Notable loot[edit | edit source]
- Whispers of Yenwood: In a vase in the main keep.
