Sorrowflow is a quest in Pathfinder: Kingmaker.
Journal[]
| “ | Interesting things are happening. – Kaessi, a tiefling from Qadira, came to us asking for help in finding an artifact in an ancient treasury! It seems like a normal errand... so why do I feel it's more complicated than it sounds? | „ |

Walkthrough[]
- Kaessi will approach the player in Jamandi Aldori's Mansion during A Noble Welcome and ask that they meet with her later in the capital at a house she is renting. The player may visit the house at any point, but Kaessi will be the same level as the player's party at this point, so it may be worth adding her to the roster of companions immediately. Especially that Kanerah is the earliest non-mercenary companion that can be assigned as Treasurer.
Find Kaessi in the capital[]
- After speaking with Kaessi at her house, the truth of her dual nature as both Kalikke and Kanerah is revealed. The player will then be asked to help retrieve an artifact known as the Disk of the Eclipse, which will allow the twins to control when they swap at will.
Travel to the Taldan Ruins[]
- Getting to Sorrowflow will be a bit tricky the first time since it is located in a region that the player will not have had any reason to explore yet. Take the path southeast from Nettle's Crossing until a path opens up to the east. Follow the eastern path until crossing the Shrike River, which should then give the player a path to the northwest, directly towards Sorrowflow.
- You can approach the place with full party, your companions will wait for you outside until you complete the location.
- It may be a good idea to prepare the player's character with as many healing and buff potions as are available at this point, because they will have to dismiss all other companions and travel with Kalikke alone in the upcoming location.
- Kalikke starts with barely any equipment, so you could bring some items for her or temporarily take them off from the current companions, such as Ring of Protection, Cloak of Resistance, or Amulet of Natural Armor.
Climb up the cliff and look around[]
- Rounding the corner of the path leading down are several Ferocious Slurks standing around a trio of water elementals seemingly trapped in an arcane fire circle. Use Kalikke's water blast ability on each of the pyres surrounding the water elementals; note that the pyres do not display any targeting reticle, but clicking on them with water blast selected will cast on them. Putting out the fires will free the water elementals, which will warn Kalikke of danger ahead, and promise to help if given the signal.
- Approaching the cliff north of the trapped elementals will give the player an Athletics DC 18 check to climb the cliff safely, or an Athletics DC 12 check if the player has a Rope.
- To the east of the clifftop is a small cave (Perception 16) with several Giant Centipedes, including a few Tremendous Centipedes. At the end of the cave some rubble is blocking the path which requires an Athletics DC 24 check to clear; failure will fatigue the party, but the player may try again. This path does not need to be cleared as it leads right back outside, but it does offer a bit of experience for the skill check.
- You can actually leave that cave for later and visit it with your regular companions after you are done with this quest.
- Defeat two Gargoyle (5 Monstrous Humanoid) at southwest and click on the magnifying glass icon at the cliff's edge, Kalikke will be swapped with Kanerah.
Deal with the gargoyle and recover the Disk of the Eclipse![]
- At this point the player has a few options for how to confront the treant:
- Confront the treant head on.
- Try to sneak around to the Disk of the Eclipse.
- Summon the water elementals if they were freed. The player may make a (Lawful Evil) choice to let the elementals fight the treant themselves to soften it up, or a (Chaotic Good) choice to help them out. The elementals have no interactions with the player if they survive the encounter.
- Summon the fire elemental with Kanerah's elemental gem (unknown source, maybe removed from game)
- After defeating the Gargoyle-like Treant interact with Disk of the Eclipse.
- If you refuse to give away the Disk you will get an optional (Chaotic Good) choice, (Neutral Evil) choice will fail the quest and you will lose tiefling twins forever.
- During the talk with Kalikke you can make a (Chaotic Good) choice or if passed hidden Bluff DC 5 check you can make a romance response.
- To get back you will have to climb up the cliff with Mobility DC 17 check, swap Kalikke with Kanerah if your [Mobility] skill is too low. Same for the Athletics DC 16 check ahead: swap to Kalikke.
- Returning to the world map will restore your party to the one that Sorrowflow was approached with, so traveling to your next location won't be as dangerous as just having Kanerah/Kalikke and the player's character.
- If you took the items from your active companions to gear up Kanerah/Kalikke then don't forget to take them back before exiting the location!
