Dungeon quick facts
The skies over Thavnair are aflame, and panic spreads through the populace like wildfire. One by one, civilians are twisted into grotesque fiends, hells-bent on slaughtering everything in sight. The deadliest of these creatures leads its newly spawned kin through the jungle, towards a number of smaller settlements, and as such, Ahewann has dispatched his Radiant Host to forestall the carnage. Though Vrtra, too, lends his strength to the cause, even that may prove insufficient, and thus do the Scions enter the fray.

Boss and mechanic notes
Vanaspati has local boss notes for: Terminus Snatcher, Terminus Wrecker, Blasphemy: Svarbhanu. These notes are pulled from the local wiki and should be treated as source-backed prep unless separately marked as human-reviewed strategy.
- Last Gasp: Tank Buster.
- Note of Despair: Room-wide AoE.
- Mouth Off: Boss summons 5 non-targetable mouths in the ground around the edge of the arena. After some time they will spawn an AoE on themselves. Two of the mouths are closed and will be safe zones. To avoid the attack, stand on or behind either of the closed mouths.
- What Is Left/Right: Fires from the left or right of the boss's hitbox and covers that side of the arena in an AoE. Players can determine which attack is coming by looking to see which arm the boss is raising. This ability can accompany Mouth Off or Wallow.
- Lost Hope: Players are debuffed with Temporary Misdirection, placing a spinning hand over their heads. When players move, the hand stops spinning and they can only move in a straight line in the direction the hand points. This debuff will most commonly still be affecting players during Mouth Off, so players must carefully time their movement to reach the safe zones as the hand moves quite quickly, but players will have time to correctly orient themselves if they are cautious.
- Wallow: Each player will receive a point-blank AoE with a red arrow marker over their head, requiring players to spread out to avoid overlapping damage. This attack doesn't have a cast bar and is used infrequently, only during What is Left/Right.
- Total Wreck: Tank Buster.
- Meaningless Destruction: Room-wide AoE.
- Poison Heart: A random player receives a stack marker after the cast finishes, requiring players to stack to mitigate damage.
- Unholy Water: Summons six Water Orbs around the edge of the arena. Running into an orb will absorb the player, debuffing with Fetters and applying a Water Resistance Down debuff, but making the player immune to fire damage. The boss will cast one of the two variants of Aether Siphon immediately after summoning the orbs.
- Aether Siphon: Absorbs aether from either the burning buildings (Fire) or the lake (Water). The boss will cast the associated element's Aether Spray immediately afterwards. The first usage of Aether Siphon is random, after which it will alternate between the two types.
- Aether Spray - Fire: Casts a room-wide fire AoE that can only be avoided if players run to an unoccupied water orb before the cast finishes. Players receive a 20 second Burns debuff if they are hit.
- Aether Spray - Water: A large radial knockback marker appears in the center of the room. Players can either stand at the center of the arena to avoid being knocked into the edge of the arena, or use a knockback resistance skill.
- Gnashing of Teeth: Tank Buster.
