Dialogue
Initial Cutscene
- Madame Roget: I sense...I sense an alien presence. The fog obscures a terrible truth concealed behind a veil of – Sorry...old habits. Hey, just so you know, I don't do readings anymore. I've been outside. You don't need second sight to foretell our future. We're all doomed, its not like I'm going to need the money. (sighs) It's strange, but it's the dreams that really get to me- not reality. I can handle reality, but those nightmares just...It's like a really annoying song that gets stuck in your head, repeating over and over and over again. The dreams are always about ravens. Thousands of ravens. Flapping wings, black feathers, dead eyes...Beaks and talons tearing and clawing and screeching.Wings of death and pestilence. A black, timeless malice covering Kingsmouth like a funeral shroud. You get the idea. I don't know what any of it means, but it's doing a number on my beauty sleep, I can tell you that.

Report
Dragon
A woman who dresses up as a fortune-cookie must not be surprised to discover fortunes inside of her. And if she calls her show The Raven's Knock, it won't be eagles or crows that flock in her dreams.
Irony is the laughter of chaos.
Do not underestimate signs and portents. The revenant is an omen. It smells the approach of death in the air. learn to read the ravens, and you will learn to see death before it strikes.
Illuminati
It's not terror as usual out there. Revenants are a bad sign, literally. They smell death before it comes. Usually they're hanging out in hospitals or Florida, but if mass tragedy is on the horizon they're quick to make the pilgrimage. If they're still in Kingsmouth, it means there's more misery left. Hopefully the worst isn't yet to come.
Fingers crossed.

'Tis not the wind, I'm afraid.
The revenant is an old enemy of ours - a creature that smells death and foretells further misery. We have received similar reports to this in the past. One Ms Rose White had an encounter much like yours. How this creature is tied to the park in Kingsmouth is another thing entirely, and something we should look into in the future.
If there is a way to use this information to our benefit, we will certainly find it.

Walkthrough
There are 5 tiers to this mission.
Note: The ravens always fly off faster than a player can run, and so are often quickly lost to sight. However, they also fly in a straight line. Whenever you're following the ravens - if you lose site of them, keep going in a straight line and watch for where a group of them have landed on the ground. If you want a visual instead of just coords, see Map:The Raven for a map of where the ravens lead you.
Tier 1/5
- Search for raven
- It will be in the courtyard outside the Raven's Knock, at the entrance from the street, near (270, 334)

- This section is timed, and if you completely lose the raven, they will reset to their location outside the Raven's Knock

Other Notes
The runes on the pages in the book appear to be some variation of runes similar to the Younger Futhark runes used in Strangers from a Strange Land, although not exactly the same.
