    Synopsis:

    If the player has rescued Omeluum from the Iron Throne, then he is in the Lodge for the Society of Brilliance. He tells the player about the events that led him to be imprisoned on the throne, reflects on the outcomes of the rescue (whether the other hostages/Duke Ravengard were saved), and provides them with a reward for his rescue.

    How to trigger:

    - CTY_Main_A
    - Debugbook option Act3 → LOW - Lodge → Omeluum escaped
