The Weeping Woman

The Weeping Woman is a nereid that serves as the second boss of the Depths of Malatar. Found in a room in the Ruins of Garlas Malatar, surrounded by the ice statues of Aurorans and other victims, she seeks to take the Wrathstone back from you. She may summon Frost Atronachs awaken the Stone Watchers present in the room to aid her during the fight. An unnatural permafrost blocks the passage out of the room, which will only melt after she has been killed.
