The Shadowy Figure is back, yet again, in Phase 3 of Season of Discovery. Once again, our interactions with her are rewarding but concerning, especially after we find out something shocking about our old friend Ziri Littlesprocket...
Warning: Questline Spoilers for Phase 3's Epic Crafting Quest Ahead
The Shadowy Figure Returns
Once again, the Shadowy Figure plays a role in the questline for powerful crafted gear. During this questline, players need to defeat an amalgamation of pure nightmare, but the creature is emitting a dread aura that is near all-encompassing, making it impossible to deal with.
As it happens, the Shadowy Figure shows up just in time to help us.
Well hello <name>! I was just standing here taking in the scenery and I just couldn't help but overhear your predicament. Fortuitously, I think I can provide just what you need to help you with your little «evil devouring nightmare monster» problem.
Isn't it encouraging to have someone like me around that tends to have just what you need, just when you need it?

The Shadowy Figure tells us about a pair of vambraces constructed by the gnomish mechanic, Ziri «The Wrench» Littlesprocket, from Phase 2's crafting quest — the quest that the Shadowy Figure turned up in before. In fact, she was the one who helped us get the Void-related materials we needed to repair the Pristine G-7 C.O.R.E. Processor that we later brought to Ziri.
The Shadowy Figure goes on to explain the properties of these vambraces and why they should help us — they are able to impart her own willpower on the bearer, which she tells us will be able to help shield us from the nightmare creature's dread aura.
You likely know of the gnomish mechanic, Ziri Littlesprocket? Well, she's quite the genius, and was kind enough to lend me her talents to help me create something that I think you'll find incredibly useful in your current predicament...
A set of void-powered vambraces, constructed utilizing a particularly impressive piece of gnomish technology that «someone» was kind enough to find and repair for her.
«Someone» recovered, eh? Let me guess, these special bracers utilize a Pristine G-7 C.O.R.E. Processor Unit? How astute! l'm glad you are able to keep up. At any rate, Ziri was feeling inexplicably inspired when she created this item and it has some truly astonishing properties. Not the least of which being able to impart a portion of my willpower upon the bearer, and shield them from, let's say, external mental interference. Such as, for example, an aura of all-encompassing dread.
But players who complete the Phase 3 quest A Troubling Exchange will already know, «Ziri» wasn't quite herself when we gave her the G-7 Unit. She has no memory of even
