The coronation is the perfect opportunity to expose Disa's schemes and unseat the false Sovran once and for all. Your preparations made, you set out to attend the grand event.

Feast of Deception - Quest End Description

Your plans to prove your identity at the coronation were thwarted when the false Arisen employed a godsway to affect his command of the pawns. Forced to retreat and come up with a new plan, you decided to make for Battahl and seek knowledge of the godsway, as it is clear that all hope of your ascension is lost unless you can find a means of countering this powerful artifact.

Dress Formally and Speak with Captain Brant

It seems that you're finally gaining a lot of traction in your endeavor to expose the royal scam. Your successful tasks with the good captain have earned you an invitation to the coronation. You'll need your formal clothes for this, which you should already have as to was required to finish The Stolen Throne, or you should've at least found some during your time in the Vernworth Hall during the same Quest. However, if for whatever reason you find yourself lacking in formal raiment still, again, you can finish the quest The Ornate Box which rewards you with some.

Before anything else, however, head to your dwelling here in Vernworth and you should see a pack hanging by your door. It's a gift from the good captain, along with a note of his gratitude. After you've equipped your formal attire, and when you've thoroughly prepared, you can speak to Captain Brant to progress the quest. Note that events of this quest may change some things for you in the overworld, so you might want to do some exploring or maybe get some Side Quests done if you'd like to before you continue. When you're ready, speak to Brant and choose the option "I am ready" as you ask him about the coronation.

Await Captain Brant's Plan of Action

Time will automatically pass until the morning and you'll be treated to a bit of a cutscene. As you try to enter the palace with Brant and your Main Pawn, the latter will bid you to not enter the palace as he struggles to fight against something that's trying to control him. It seems that this "godsway" is something that our schemers have found that allows the false Sovran to overwrite your control on Pawns, which will spit in the face of any evidence you have against his legitimacy as the Arisen. Your group will wisely elect to abandon your task for now.

Your little ally, Sven, will report to Brant that the false king was wearing some kind of necklace, which you assume would be the Godsway artifact. Brant will try and get answers from the agent you apprehended during the events of The Arisen's Shadow.

NOTE: The Arisen's Shadow is a quest with multiple outcomes. If you released Bermudo, Brant will say that he'll "try to find a way forward" instead, and all related conversations will follow suit.

To continue, you'll have to let time pass for at least a day and then come back to the tavern at night as usual. Talk to the captain about the coronation. It seems he's found out that there's a place in Battahl that specializes in the strange. For this endeavor, he'll give you the Border Entry Permit that will allow you to cross to the neighboring region. If you are a Beastren, he'll give you the Beastren Border Entry Permit, remarking about how lucky it is that you are one. If you apprehended Bermudo during The Arisen's Shadow, he'll tell you that he's also found out there used to be an oracle who served Vermund previously, who prophesized of your arrival. Naturally, the Queen regent disliked it and had her banished. It seems she was the Bermudo's source of information in the first place, so it'll be a good idea to find her and befriend her.
