Story setting and identity

Blizzard presents Greywake’s Hill as a once-prosperous island where something sinister has happened. The story follows those who fell to its two named horrors. The aquatic setting and titles are atmosphere and identification; they do not establish drowning timers, debuff stacks or specific avoidable attacks.

Puzzle and achievement goals

The reward-linked PTR achievement family includes The Eldrich Puzzlemaster’s Reward, whose criterion is completing every puzzle in this tale and whose reward reference points to Greywake’s Wisdom. That is more specific than simply defeating its final enemy. A separate all-tale puzzle objective also exists.
