Lord Arak is not a nice guy, presumably. Sure, maybe he does nice things for his friends, has a soft spot for animals, all of that. But he also knows the secret fears that lurk in the heart of every Ascended character in RIFT, and considering the fact that he’s at the center of a big new Nightmare Saga questline being introduced to the game with next month’s major patch, you know he’s not the friendliest sort.
Maybe if the quest were something like “Learning to be Friends” it would be more ambiguous, but no, Nightmare Saga it is. It gives certain impressions.
A very short teaser is available on the official site, complete with a recommendation that players earn the trust of the Ghar now instead of struggling for approval once the patch actually goes live. Hopefully that task is a bit less nightmarish than dealing with Arak promises to be.
