 Arc 3 starts with Arc graduation from Ravenwood. A wonderful occasion cut short by Bartleby getting sick. He says we must go to the world Polaris. Our first step is to find Ivan the Great, Baba Yaga's henchman. We find out that Ivan has been imprisoned for helping the resistance. We break Ivan out of the Bastille, we head into the taiga and meet Malori outside Baba Yaga's house. Yaga sends us with Malori to the Sunless Shrine. The aurorical says a shadow comes to tear land and sky and it is only a matter of time before the sand settle and the spiral ends as it began with a broken heart. We head back to Baba Yaga and she takes us to the Arcanum. We learn that old cob who we freed in Chrysalis is Grandfather Spider. It turns out Rasputin is one of Spider's children. We learn Rasputin is heading to the Sky Anker at top Borealis Peaks. At the top we face off with Rasputin, now revealed to be the rat. After his defeat, Grandfather Spider speaks to us, thanking us for helping him out of the black hole. However, he is set on destroying the spiral after all of the pain he has been put through since it was formed.
