Back to Oriath?

Or have act 5 only accessible from merciless and as you set out to kill the beast you enter a new untouched area of wraeclast where the "town" is merely a single overturned wagon with a timid shopkeep willing to sell you his items in exchange for getting them out alive. Along the way you meet old Diala again and she offers to guide you to the beast since her love is no more. She tells you how to reach the beast and bringing her is your only chance to kill the beast. As you delve deeper into this harsh and unforgiving land you reach the center of the continent, only for it to be a smoldering ruin with large crystals growing out of this corrupted and evil land. You reach the center, the true birthplace of thamaturgy to see the beast itself, Diala begins to laugh. She walks into the center and all the crystals begin to glow. In a flash Diala is standing there standing as proud as when you first met her. "Thank you Not-A-Cockroach for completing the last task before me. For you see, the Gemlings are not the creations of Malachi, but something far stronger. When Malachi "created" us, he merely woke us from our long slumber and unknowingly imprisoned us in these bodies. Now That he is out of the way with help from you, me and my children may now retake this world. What? You think you can stop me? I guess I was wrong about you, you are nothing more than the most powerful of the cockroaches. Now that I am whole again, I will take the time to crush you. A warrior-cockroach you think you are, a warrior-cockroaches death you have earned." She vanishes and leaves a portal where she was standing. You enter to find a new world, where several beasts made of crystals begin to attack you. As you progress you begin to see beasts, twisted versions of all the villagers you met along your long winding journey crying out how they dont want to kill you but they have no control. You kill them all along the way, finally reaching Diala. She shifts into a HUGE and twisted beast "THE TIME HAS COME COCKROACH, THE GEMLING QUEEN WILL RULE ONCE AGAIN!" After the fight you walk through a portal only to see a dying Diala laying in the center of the shattered crystals. Realizing it was only an illusion of your friends you killed, a trick from the gemling queen. "You truly are Not-A-Cockroach. But one day I will rule again. For as long as my children are still alive in the very gems that saved your life today, I can never be destroyed. Take your victory as a shallow one Not-A-Cockroach, because I will be back one day, Wraeclast will once again be MINE!" The exile stares in disbelief and realizes that their journey will never end.

I'm still 99% sure that this life is an illusion and our exiles will awaken back on the ship where the game becomes a fishing simulator.

Time is an illusion; lunchtime doubly so.

Good call, sir!!!
