Ah, Daeva, just in time for my latest inspiration.

You see, not every Lepharist is a soldier. There's a cadre of labourers who build and maintain buildings, make supply runs, mine ores, and other such tasks.

They're mostly made up of new recruits and those still untrained with sword or spell. In fact, they're the ones who built Alquimia in the first place.

• "Go on...."

I've kept a close eye on the Labourers during my trips there. Everyone else is so used to seeing them that they're practically ignored, like they're part of the scenery.

But grunt labour like that is what keeps them going. If we disrupt that work flow, we can disrupt all of their operations in one fell swoop.

If a Daeva--say yourself--were to take out a large group of labourers, the damage could be devastating. What do you think? Up to it?

• Accept.
• Decline.

The Lepharists will regret not thinking about their lowly workers. It's mistakes like this that win wars.

Alquimia Labourers work within the Alquimia Stronghold. Get rid of any you see!

Oh, if you go alone, do try to practice some stealth. The Lepharists won't treat your presence kindly.

• "Obviously not."

Take Dewi at his word and take out the Alquimia Labourers.

The only result that would be better than disrupting the Lepharists is if other labourers hear about this and start deserting. That would really do some damage!

That assumes, of course, you succeeded in your task. Did you?

• "But of course."

Good job. But don't think for a minute this will discourage most of them. They're fanatics at heart, and fanatics have a way of ignoring reality.

Still, life at Alquimia just got a lot more difficult, and that's a big victory for Pandaemonium, as far as I'm concerned.

I'll report this in. In the meantime, take this for your trouble. It should come in handy.

Dewi suggested that you infiltrate Alquimia Stronghold and eliminate Alquimia Labourers. Their absence would throw building and maintenance into chaos.

You went into the heart of the Lepharist territory and killed a large number of labourers. The Lepharist cause was damaged, and Dewi rewarded you accordingly.
