Gertrude Reappears in Tangled Depths
It will all make sense once you speak to her.
i didnt notice her til when i was doing wyvern and a gentle npc called gertrude starting rez me when i died.
the nobles stuff on VB is very fun.
There’s an ongoing story from the meta in VB to the final meta in DS. If you focus on the story and dialogue throughout the maps, it’ll make more sense.
