Voices of the Dead
Voices of the Dead is a Dark and Darker quest assigned by the Fortune Teller merchant, part of the Echoes Of The Damned quest line. The eye failed us; its vision clouded... Sight has betrayed me, adventurer, but perhaps sound will not. The voices of the dead echo faintly, yearning to be heard. Deep within the caverns, the giant bats dwell, their ears attuned to the faintest of vibrations, even those that ripple from the beyond. Sever one ear from these shadowed predators—bloodied and raw—and bring it to me. Only then may we align with the spectral murmurs that seek to guide us. The objective is to bring 1× giant bat ear. All progress requires a successful extraction — items retrieved or kills made during a failed run do not count toward quest completion. Once every objective is fulfilled, return to Fortune Teller in the lobby to turn in the quest and receive the reward. This quest requires completing Premonitions of the Unknown before it becomes available from Fortune Teller. Completing Voices of the Dead rewards 30 Gold, Random Uncommon Weapon, 40 XP, Alchemist Affinity +15. The quest is completed in Ice Cavern, Goblin Caves, Ruins or Ship Graveyard. Merchant quests in Dark and Darker are one of the most consistent gold and experience sources in the game, independent of loot luck on the Trading Post. Completing the full Fortune Teller quest chain unlocks higher reward tiers and increases merchant affinity, which can affect prices and open additional quest tiers in future seasons. The Echoes Of The Damned chain provides a structured progression path through the Fortune Teller quest tree, and finishing each quest in order is the fastest route to the higher value objectives later in the line. Use the MetaBot Dark and Darker quest tracker to check all open objectives across every active merchant before extracting, so you can turn in multiple quests from a single run and get the most value out of each session.

40 XP“You’ve done well. The ear still hums with unnatural resonance, as though it drinks in the very silence around us. Already, I feel the faint touch of voices long silenced, brushing against my thoughts. Yet, their message remains indistinct, a riddle without form. The connection must be strengthened, for the dead demand more than mere listening—they will soon seek communion. May the stars align in our favor.”
