Starting Hero:
Railag (Dungeon)

Map Description:
Railag and his mentor, Sorchan, are too tired to run and are concerned about the declining morale of their troops. They devised a way to unite the dark elves. To do this, they need to retrieve the Invisible Library, which was taken to Shiio a hundred years ago. To take the first step towards the success of their daring plan, they must obtain the ashes of Queen Tuidhana from the sacred Reliquary in the lands of the Unicorn Duchy.

Walkthrough:
The game begins with a video featuring Sorchan, Silsai, and Menan. In short, Silsai is in favor of demons becoming allies, while Menan wants to forgive the Elves and live in peace. Railag is the third party, and he is initially indifferent to the rule of the Elves; his goal is to find a new home for them. The essence of the mission is to find Tuidhana's ashes, and then use the ashes to find the Tear of Ash (but not in this mission). So, the mission is quite easy; you can complete it in about 30 minutes, even if you collect everything and level up your hero. By the way, Railag already starts at level 5; I don't know why they did that, but they did. We appear in the Dungeon in the lower corner. At first, there is no one there, and we can take our time, explore everything, collect resources, and level up the hero. I made Railag a warrior and sent him down the path of tears. The abilities on the path of tears are quite powerful and mainly serve to distract attention from your army. For example, "Feign Death." By applying this ability to your unit, you will get: the enemy unit attacking the creature deals minimal damage to it, and in addition, your creature "as if" dies, i.e., it lies down and no one pays attention to it anymore. But when it is his turn to move, he (the unit) gets up with increased initiative and speed. Well, okay, how to level up the hero is up to you. After clearing the lower half, you will come to a gate that is closed. You cannot open it at the moment. There will be a dialogue with Irris. After that, move east; there is an exit from the Dungeon. Once on the surface, Railag will need sunglasses because the sun blinds him (just kidding). You will have a task to gather Irris's army. It is not difficult, and I don't think you will have any problems with it. While collecting resources, you will see a fort where an angel novice is sitting (this is one of the tasks); you must capture her after defeating her. Slightly southeast, there is a portal; that is where you need to go. You will find yourself in the Dungeon again, but on the other side of the gate. Collect crystals because they will be needed by our Messengers. Then move north, clearing the map. As soon as you reach a fork, go west. Leaving the Dungeon, you will encounter minotaurs. They will give you a task, and the reward will be up to "Balance of Power." The task is performed in the same area where you met the minotaurs. Then go back into the Dungeon and go east. Leaving the Dungeon, you will encounter two heroes of the Light faction. Your task is to pass by them. If you go down the path of blood, kill them. But if you go down the path of tears, you need to remain unnoticed. Not far from the entrance to the Dungeon, there is a bell tower; you will hide in it, and as soon as the enemy heroes move away a little, get out and run to the portal (it will activate itself when you approach). Then we watch a video. After the video, we move to the city of humans and kill another angel. After that, a hunt is declared on you. Now you need to run back to the place where you started the game as soon as possible. At the end, you will face a not very pleasant surprise, but you will easily deal with it.

How do I get the "Silent Shadow" achievement on this map? I reached the reliquary without fighting anyone, but the achievement wasn't awarded. Could it be that I also need to return without fighting anyone?

I can't go down into the Dungeon near Erathia. Is this a bug?

Something didn't allow me to obtain the "Edge of Balance" weapon; the credits rolled, but the weapon isn't in my inventory. What's the problem?
