…and they shouldn’t be here tonight.
Swims-at-Night: Intruders!
Chapter 8: Swims-at-Night[edit]
Swims-at-Night is the eighth chapter of Legends, and the last battle of Act 1. When pursuing Laaneth and her kidnappers, you and Tyr decide that you need a ship.
This is the first match where your opponent’s deck is in a random order and can be much more unpredictable than previous matches. Swims-at-Night uses some creatures with a high magicka cost which can be hard to deal with while you have a small collection. As his deck has few prophecies, an aggro playstyle is recommended with the basic Band of Survivors deck.
During the fight with Swims-at-Night, Dominion Guards appear, resulting in the Argonian smuggler joining you as you’ve now found a common enemy.
Dialogue[edit]
Pre-Match
- Kellen: “The cultists kidnapped the sorceress Laaneth, and had taken her north. They would use her to help them bring about a dread prophecy known as The Culling.”
- Tyr: “I don’t like it any more than you do. But we need a ship to chase the cultists and we don’t have any coin. Besides, this ship belongs to smugglers, and I have it on good authority that—”
- Swims-at-Night: “Intruders!”
- Tyr: “… That they’re not here tonight.”
During the Match
- Tyr: “The poison on some of their blades looks deadly. Let’s try to avoid them.”
Post-match
- Swims-at-Night: “Who sent you?! You don’t look like –“
- Dominion Guard: “Hey! What’s going on up there?”
- Swims-at-Night: “Dominion Guards!”
- Kellen: “The Argonian and the hero realized they had a common enemy. The smuggler, who was called Swims-at-Night, agreed to sail north in search of the sorceress.”
Swims-at-Night: Dominion Guards!
