An Existential Crisis is a quest in Divinity: Original Sin II. It is part of the chronicle Mastering the Source.

Objectives

Quest content may vary based on party choices.

Investigate the voice from the grave.
Speak with Crispin.
  • We dug up a talkative skeleton. His claims to be a philosopher of some wisdom are less than convincing.
Gain an unreliable education in the rudiments of philosophy.
  • Crispin the skeletal philosopher challenged us to a battle of wisdom. It may be wise to study up on the subject.
Pursue more philosophical learning.
Oppose Crispin.
  • We read three books on philosophy. This might be enough to defeat Crispin.
Quest complete.
  • The duel with the philosophical skeleton proved fatal. One of our party's mind was blown - and their body followed suit.
  • In the skeleton's battle of wits, we had the superior intellect.

Walkthrough

Read the three philosophy books in Ryker's Rest: The Essence of Existence, Volume One, The Essence of Existence, Volume Two, and The Essence of Existence, Volume Three. This unlocks the following responses:

  • Crispin: First up: our purpose in life. I say it's to accumulate knowledge. Pretty great answer, eh? Can you do better than that?
    RESPONSE: State that there is no greater purpose than to banish life's tumult in the pursuit of pleasure.

    Crispin: Tell me, is there such a thing as free will? I say... no! The Gods guide our every move. I dare you to outsmart me now!
    RESPONSE: State that our individual freedoms are limited only by physical limitations. We are free to act within a defined set of rules.

    Crispin: Is there a difference between right and wrong? The truth is that there is not - only action and consequence. Oh ho! I got you there!
    RESPONSE: Reply that morality is a river, steered by the impulses of men and women, Gods and Goddesses, chance and nature.
    Crispin: NnnnnNNNNNNNNGH! I can't bear this... this existential agony. What have you...
