Solasta 2 lets you make a Covenant early on. It’s a binding magical agreement tied between you and a powerful entity. It can be quite the difficult choice, given your agreeing to work with a powerful creature. While it might seem like you have an option to say yes or no, the truth is you have little say in the matter.
Honoring the Covenant: Yes or No?
The scene comes up after Maraike stops time. You are asked whether you are going to take on Ma Hin’s job and accept the covenant. While you have the option to say no, the fact is you really don’t have a choice but to accept it.
Saying No to the Covenant
If you choose to say no to Maraike, you will be told that the cycle of life and death goes on. The game essentially ends at this point, making it impossible for you to continue. “You choose death. Denying a request from the gods is a dangerous path” appears on screen, forcing you to click understood.
It then takes you back to the original scene where you are being asked if you will accept the covenant.
Saying Yes to the Covenant
Saying yes to Maraike means you accept the burden. From there, you will be transported to Caer Mar to head to the next part of the game. The only option is to say yes because, by saying, No transports you back to the start of the scene. However, you can ask what the covenant is before saying yes.
Asking What is the Covenant
There is the choice to ask what the covenant exactly is. Nothing really happens. The question will be answered, and you’ll be taken back to the part where you’re asked if you’ll accept it or not. All you really can do is click yes in the end.
Quite a pointless waste of dialogue option really. Just to give you the fake illusion of choice. But, for those curious as to what the other dialogue options actually represent you, now, have your answer! The Covenant is much too important to be ignored
Now you know what the covenant is in Solasta 2 and what answer to pick when present with the option!
