The Nexus

The Nexus is a hidden temple that "binds together the northern land of Boletaria". It binds the souls of all would-be demon soul hunters, so they cannot leave, but only travel to the 5 worlds connected by the archstones. This is your place of retreat and refuge, which contains a variety of NPC's and vendors to aid you in your journey.

Vendors

• Blacksmith Boldwin (Upgrade)
• Patches, the Hyena (Unlockable)

Teachers

• Saint Urbain (Unlockable, Miracles)
• Disciple of God (Miracles)
• Sage Freke, the Visionary (Unlockable, Magic)
• Freke's Apprentice (Magic)
• Yuria, the Witch (Unlockable, Magic)

Other NPCs

• The Maiden in Black
• Stockpile Thomas
• The Monumental
• Mephistopheles (Unlockable)
• Crestfallen Warrior
• Worshipper of God (female follower)
• Acolyte of God (male follower)
• Biorr, of the Twin Fangs (Unlockable)
• Ostrava, of Boletaria (Unlockable)
• Yurt, the Silent Chief (Unlockable)

Other Areas

• The Nexus contains the Archstones, which allow a character to travel to the 5 worlds overtaken by the fog and demons. There is a sixth archstone which appears shattered and is unusable.
• At the highest point reachable by the stairs, there is a door which leads to the Pantheon, which is the visual High-scores display. You can examine the stats and appearance of top online players, and your own 4 characters at the last time they "United the World" (beat the game).
• The central transparent seal in the center floor of the Nexus is the entry point to the end game area, where the Old One is bound. Once you have defeated all the boss demons for all 5 worlds, the seal is broken, and the Maiden in Black can escort you to encounter it.

Important Tips

• If you attack any of the vendors or NPC's in the Nexus on accident, immediately quit to the in game menu. If you do this you shouldn't have them permanently attacking you. This can be a game breaking experience with some characters like the stock pile guy. Others have tried to let them kill you/load another world.

Items

• Follow the balcony onward past the Monumental, take the small stairscase down to the lower level, and look left to find a Stone of Ephemeral Eyes.
• If you enter the Pantheon, in its inner ring on the far left side, is a Stone of Ephemeral Eyes.
• On a a broken ledge high above Boldwin there is a body with treasure. To reach it, you must jump down from the curved staircase high above, and then walk from the other end of the ledge to reach the corpse.
• Symmetrically opposite the above body on the ledge, there is 2x Dark? Moon Grass. Access it the same way, from the opposite stairs.

Pure Black Character Tendency Events

• Once pure black character tendency is achieved, Mephistopheles will show up on the second floor of the Nexus. All Nexus citizens must still be alive except Yurt, he must be rescued and killed before she'll appear.

Pure White Character Tendency Events

• Once pure white character tendency is achieved, speak to The Monumental to receive the Friend's Ring. (NOTE: You must answer YES when he asks if you "accept the mission" during your initial conversation with him, or you will be unable to get this ring until NG+).
