The Poya Jungle is full of mysteries, Daeva.

So many unusual creatures that many have never seen.

Perhaps the Aether has something to do with it, but not everything can be explained by Aether.

• "What do you mean?"

Earth Spirits, for instance, are a concentrated nature spirit form, very sensitive to the environment.

The ones at the Lepharist Research Centre are different. They seem somehow immune to the world around them.

I'd like to know why.

• "Can I be of service?"

You can, and I'm grateful for your assistance.

If we unlock the mystery of the Earth Spirits, perhaps we can piece together how others were affected.

With Ariel's guidance, we might even find out what caused the changes.

• Accept.
• Decline.

Daeva, your job is to collect Earth Crystals for me. I'll need at least five.

Decayed Terra Spirits and Quake Spirit are common near the Lepharist Research Centre.

It's that place that's at the heart of the mystery. I'm sure of it.

• "In Ariel's light."

Get rid of the Decayed Terra Spirits and Quake Spirits around the Lepharist Research Centre to collect the Earth Crystals for Kalione to do her research.

I've extracted the Laupede sample, finished the Malodor research, and now...

Oh, when did you come back? I'm sorry. I tend to focus on my work.

Did you find the Earth Spirits?

• "These should prove enlightening."

No, no, no! I need more samples for my research!

If we can't replicate the results, our study will be meaningless.

I'm sorry to bark at you, but I need more materials.

• "As you wish."

Splendid work! I can't wait to get to the bottom of this.

I'll make a study of these crystals, and solve this conundrum.

Here, take this. I hope it's enough.

Kalione wanted to study the Earth Spirits around the Lepharist Research Centre to see why they were different.

You collected the crystals and brought them to her.
