* A quest in the Fractured Peaks has a man tormented by the spirit of his son, who passed away in an asylum he was sent to after having murdered another boy, and he begs you to put his son's spirit to rest. When you enter the Asylum and find the son's ghost, he laments how his father had promised to visit him in the asylum but never did, and devolves into screaming about how "father lied" before attacking you. After the ghost is destroyed and you report back to the father, he simply ''shuts down'' in grief before revealing the truth: ''He'' caused the other boy's death (heavily implied to have been [[AccidentalMurder a complete accident]]) and convinced his son to take the fall, promising to visit him and find a way to get him out, but as is obvious now, never did. Cursing his own cowardice, he resolves to enter the Asylum himself and "see his son". The [[DrivenToSuicide implications]] are as obvious as they are grim.
