The Black Pyramid

The Black Pyramid is a landmark location in Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones.

Description
The Black Pyramid is a landmark arrived at by the player character in the final area of Nithon. The "pyramid" is a multifaceted structure converging to a single point, with onyx-black, reflective surfaces concealing an unknown interior. It is the final location encountered by the player character before the end of the game and it is the second location whereupon the player character is met with by the Black-Lipped entity.

Sacrificing Your Companion
The concluding cinematic that plays upon completing the game will change (slightly) depending on which companion the player character chooses to sacrifice to the Black Pyramid. One of the following unique dialogues will occur:


 * The Nameless Soldier: As the Nameless Soldier’s rifle, which has never before left his hand, clatters to the ground, you realize that this undead being has finally retired from the war that rages endlessly in his broken mind.
 * The Outsider: The Outsider turns the waning yellow light of his eye upon you one last time. The frozen apparition of his face beneath the rags evince how fatal a mistake he made by taking part in the story of a human.
 * Sonia Green Carter: Sonia Green Carter gazes up at you one last time with the fading eyes of a lost soul. The path she followed in tracing her husband’s fate has ended with the gift of a second death, which you have so treacherously bestowed upon her.
 * Werner (Butler): As Werner fixes his withering gaze upon you, you realize you’ve never seen him so dirty and unkempt. Now he is just another broken victim of the very entropy against which he has struggled his entire life.
 * Wilbur Hampton: Disbelief and shock are etched on the face of this man – lost in both time and space – at his own murder by the only member of his race who he has encountered on this alien world. As he collapses, helpless, to the ground, his eyes still glow with a relentless hatred for you.
 * Winston (Dog): Winston looks up at you with dying eyes that yet reflect his inexhaustible loyalty to you. In a dog’s mind, the scope of your betrayal is simply inconceivable.
