|title = Litany of the Dead Dragon Riddle Answers
|category=
|overview=The Black Dragon at the end of [[Litany of the Dead]] will ask you question. The questions have two purposes:
# Answer all of the questions correctly will to end the quest.
# Depending on the answers, it will unlock one of four paths that are needed to flag for [[Ascension Chamber]].  You need to complete all four of the optionals, and break the green crystals on the towers you have access to after completing them, to flag.  Only the characters that are on the tower when the crystals are broken have the specific path marked as complete.


They are always the same questions in the same order. The object is to answer the questions as if you were answering them as the boss you are trying to get to. For example, if you were trying to get to Doomsphere you would answer the questions as if you were lawful good.
