To differentiate ( for players ), when Set's Shadow is acting up/acting out, I'm going to be using the masked god icons. Masks are representative of hiding one's true self, playing a role or part, and in Ennead, as a sign of power and status.
Set's shadow is highly representative of his former self, as the tyrannical king of Egypt. It speaks in riddles, references his current "weaknesses" and "vulnerabilities", and generally is utterly unhinged. [ x, x ]
- "I have no intention of joining hands with any form of leadership, I'm through with that life. What I want - is nothing more than to figure out why all these souls are trapped in this place and free them to their respective afterlives, though. I'll work with anyone for that end. Crook or champion!"
- "I said I'll fix it! It's my duty to fix it. I'm not going to resist if you all want to form a body of representatives or assign someone as king. Or try to join the Hierarchy, or whatever. It's not an easy situation to be in, for any of you. You shouldn't BE here, I get that."
- Take care of Jonas! Allow the kid to be a kid.
- Work on acquiring more of the blue powder substance, either by killing ghosts for it or synthesizing a similar material. This will be what he uses to circumvent the shadow's control, and he'll try to disseminate it among the Restless to: improve their control + better present them to the Hierarchy as valuable individuals + fortify them against Oblivium!

[ OBTAINED ] Albeit a bit murky. Think of it as a weak signal reception. Pry some information about the Netherworld out of an NPC's mind, or try to find out what a friend think of you. Lasts 12 hours.
I have traveled beyond the borders defended by the Ennead, and found many underworlds have seas and rivers. More than that, many of our divine origins trace back to primordial waters -- cosmogenic chaos. We are born of waters and return to it. From Apsu, Nu, Khaos, Danu. To Irkalla, Duat, Styx, Patala.
If we can trace our origins to the cosmic sea, then the waters of the underworld must be that same sea.
At least, that's what I've wondered.
So, I wonder. Could we not sail the seas and rivers here, and find where the waters unite?
