Shadows of War II: Captain Laguna’s Ship and the Chaos Amulet

Turn the ship around

The community scene opens with a ship rising from underwater and the Hero warning that their pursuers are still coming. Drakath tells Teja to turn around and finish this. His amulet has to be on that ship, he insists; at this point its location is his belief rather than a confirmed discovery.

Teja orders everyone aboard and calls for them to slaughter the crew. The community scene directions mention a harpoon and Teja turning the wheel; they do not report how the maneuver or command ends.

Some pirates have already boarded Teja’s ship. Fight the Crew calls for ten pirates to be defeated, from ShadowChaos Brigands or Gunners. It begins a sequence of ten explicitly once-only tasks; no prerequisite is stated for this first task itself.

Reach the Ship follows. With Teja left to repel any further boarders, the Hero and Drakath take the fight to the enemy vessel; the objective is to reach it once by clicking the cannon on Screen 2.

A door below decks

Drakath guesses Laguna is hiding below decks and plans to flush her out. Get the Bombs requires eight Big Bombs from ShadowChaos Gunners.

Blow 'er Up! follows with four Matchsticks from the Gunners and one bomb-placement objective on Screen 4. Drakath intends to make a door to the lower level, rather than sink the ship. Afterward, he boasts that they used the enemy’s own bombs and directs the Hero down the hole toward the Merdraconian he says he saw below decks.

Defeat the Captain then requires one defeat of Captain Laguna. Its completion leads into a confrontation over the amulet.

Laguna loses control

Drakath demands the amulet. Laguna boasts of having more power than he can imagine, but the community staging shows tentacles overtaking her and she admits she cannot control it. Native dialogue preserves that admission, while the selected art depicts her enclosed by tendrils. Drakath says she and Malgor were fools to think anyone could wield the Chaos Amulet. Laguna tells him to stop gloating and act before they all go down.

After Defeat the Captain, Drakath says both Laguna and the amulet are trapped in the tentacles. They will have to crawl inside to get them out—or at least to recover the amulet.

More Pirates requires ten further pirates from the same Brigand and Gunner sources; Drakath says they are still attacking despite their captain’s defeat.

In Steal for Scouts, Drakath asks for eight Captive Roe from Chaos Roe. He thinks his remaining connection with Chaos may let him guide them as scouts to find the amulet.

Drakath then believes he has located it deep inside the mass. Make them Work calls for eight Captive Burrowers from Chaos Burrowers to open a passage; the completion text says the passage is open.

Inside Laguna’s body

Find the Amulet requires nine monster defeats from the listed Burrower, Roe, Brigand and Gunner sources, followed by finding the amulet on Screen 12. The source gives a shared total, without dividing the nine between enemy types.

At the amulet, the Hero tentatively compares the tangle around it to Laguna’s nervous system. Drakath says the tunnel is what her body has become. Reaching the amulet would mean cutting through Laguna herself, he acknowledges, but he argues that leaving it in place will not save her. The native exchange preserves both the Hero’s uncertainty and Drakath’s explanation.

Retrieve the Amulet requires one Chaos Amulet from Writhing Chaos. Drakath warns that everything inside is infused with the amulet’s energy and will fight back.

The amulet returns; Laguna falls silent

Drakath announces that the amulet is his again. The community staging describes him holding it, and the explicit native pose shows the purple-framed, green eye-like amulet in his raised hand. The Hero wants to finish the reunion on the ship: without the amulet holding the tunnel together, the Hero warns, the place will collapse.

Back aboard the ship, the community staging describes Laguna waking. The Hero says a healing potion may be on hand, but Laguna says one potion will not fix this. She admits that she could not handle the amulet, let it corrupt her and let Malgor tempt her with its power. She thanks the Hero for saving her from herself; no potion is shown being found or administered in the reviewed evidence.

The native scene then stages an apparent death: after Laguna’s thanks, its source selects an animation labelled Die, whose inspected endpoint lowers her head and upper body. Drakath falls silent, then Xang speaks of Laguna in the past tense and says they should return her home to the sea. The death reading is an inference from that combined evidence; the reviewed images do not depict a completed return or burial.

A different reason to fight

Laguna’s words resonate with Drakath, but he rejects the Hero’s suggestion that he regrets Chaos corrupting him. His earlier alliance, he admits, served his own rule and power because Malgor stood in their way. Now he says he should have focused on stopping Malgor’s destruction of Lore. Whatever their visions for the world, Good and Evil still need it to exist; Malgor does not, Drakath argues. That is why Chaos needs to truly join the alliance. This is his stated change of purpose, rather than a claim that he has become good or that a formal alliance has already been completed.

A separate follow-up, Snack Time, follows Retrieve the Amulet in the quest list. It asks for fifteen Caviar from Chaos Roe, with a stack cap of seventy-five. The reward is 2,000 Gold, 2,000 Exp and one listed ShadowChaos Mote outcome of two, three or four. The source supplies neither selection odds nor a once-only, repeatable or optional designation.

The NPC record preserves the same alliance argument, but labels it “After A Closer Look”—the same marker used earlier for the pirate-fight dialogue. Those two source states remain distinct; the repeated marker does not establish their runtime order or repair the recorded chronology.
