The Opening ofVampire: The Masquerade - Swansongintroduces players to a number of important characters associated with the Camarilla, one of whom is Journey. A Toreador who is close friends with Emem, Journey is in trouble due to being the planner for a party that has turned into a disaster and likely a masquerade breach. Understandably, Journey is concerned about being put in the firing line, but players with keen eyes can find the means to prove her innocence.
Vampire: The Masquerade - Swansongis a narrative RPG by Big Bad Wolf Studio and published by Nacon, set in the World of Darkness. Players take on the roles of three vampires from different clans as a red alert is sent out in Boston, warning all members of the Camarilla that something has gone wrong.
In the aftermath of a brutal shooting at a party intended to celebrate an alliance between the Boston Camarilla and the Hartford Chantry, the player must guide Emem of the Toreador, Galeb of the Ventrue, and Leysha of the Malkavian in their efforts to uncover the culprits and survive the fallout.
How to Prove Journey is Innocent
Emem Scene 1
The first step to saving Journey from the prince’s wrath comestowards the end of Emem’s first Scene.Players will be allowed to explore Elysium as Emem while searching for Journey, as the prince has tasked Emem with bringing her to them.
Checking the booths to the right of the bar will reveal a vessel lying on a sofa. Using Emem’s Auspex Vision will allow players to pick up on the scent of Journey’s perfume nearby.
Tracking her perfume trailwill eventually lead players to Jara Drory’s office, where a distraught Journey is frantically searching for a file that could prove her innocence.
Unfortunately, Emem is not in a position to find the file, but to prove Journey’s innocence, players must choose to take her to the prince. Telling Journey to run makes it impossible to prove her innocence.
Leysha Scene 1
Leysha’s first scene gives players control as she spies on the interaction between Emem and Journey in Jara’s office.
It doesn’t matter whether players give in to the vision or stay focused to save Journey, but there’s little to be gained by rewatching the previous scene, and watching the vision unlocks a new trait for Leysha.
After this, check the shelf to the left of Jara’s desk to find a pink file that proves Journey’s innocence. Finally, at the end of Leysha’s scene, when she reports to the prince, present the prince with the file, and Journey’s Innocence is proven.
