About this quest
You came to Wells to meet Sinéad, the researcher who believed she’d found proof of lost Celtic script hidden in plain sight. But she’s gone, no replies, no trace.
Her final letters hinted at five protective symbols and a truth the Church once tried to bury. Following her clues through the city, you begin to fear she didn’t disappear… she was silenced.
