*Achoo*

Ah, excuse me. I’m allergic to Balaur scales, and since I’ve come to Inggison my sneezing hasn’t stopped.

• You keep listening.

Alright then. Would you be so kind as to help me a little?

This isn’t a difficult task. A Daeva of Life who is investigating the base has asked for support .I’d like you to take care of that for me.

So go to the Soteria Sanctuary and meet Zeniah!

• You end the conversation.

Objective: Complete the task you received from Vrius.

It seems Vrius has come to see you.

Nice to meet you. I’m Zeniah and I’m currently investigating a base in Inggison.

Have you ever discovered an unusual base or noticeable fissures in Inggison?

• You ask what this is all about.

In many places in Balaurea there are geysers that create rising air currents or water currents.

If you stand on a geyser that produces water currents, you can be directly teleported to a high location.

And at a geyser with rising air currents you can be carried by the wind with outstretched wings.

That will help you when you need to teleport around Balaurea.

• You keep listening.

I’m surveying Inggison to find as many of these fissures and bases as possible.

However, I currently don’t have enough resources, so I allied myself with a Shugo who knows Balaurea well, and we’re trying to locate the bases.

However, the Shugo who was supposed to help didn’t show up, so there are problems now.

Daeva, would you please find the Shugo Shaorunerk and then tell me how the search for the base is going?

• You end the conversation.

Hm, isn’t that the usual line from Inggison?

Of course Shaorunerk found the base.

But... there’s a problem with that.

• You keep listening.

A base was discovered in the western part of the Weeping Valley, but the fearsome Puca is blocking access.

Shaorunerk fought bravely, but couldn’t stop it.

The Shugo are indeed cleverer than Daevas, but when things get serious they often can’t do anything. Daevas must intervene.

• You keep listening.

The Weeping Valley has been taken by Esalki the Fourth.

If you protect the girl, a powerful object may appear. If you stand on the object and touch the wings, you should be able to destroy it.

Oh, on the way you’ll encounter some fearsome Valley Hornskull. Please take out a few of them.

On your way back, it would also be good if you visited the gold mine where Puca children sleep.

That’s an ideal plan, ha!

• You end the conversation.

Oh, the gold mine... no, Daeva! I’ve been waiting for you!

Did you thoroughly scout the base?

Did you bring any back?

• Hand over the Puca Gold Ingots.

Hm, the gold is of course not for Shaorunerk’s personal enrichment, it will all be needed for the research here.

So, when you have finished investigating the base, set off at once.

Report to the scholar Sulla.

• You end the conversation.

Welcome.

You sought out Shaorunerk at Zeniah’s request?

Then you must be just back from investigating the base in Inggison.

• You give your report.

Did he supposedly open up a gold mine with the Puca during the base investigation and hand it over to Shaorunerk?

Apparently there are other Daeva who fell victim to Shaorunerk...

It’s a crude trick, but it’s not that bad. On other occasions they’re even said to have stolen the potions in the chests down to the last drop.

You’ve really worked hard.

During the attack Vrius did not destroy the residents’ belongings; instead he devised a plan to save his wife Zeniah and employed certain ruses to do so.

He had Zeniah take on a role and staged a pretence for her while he took other measures to protect her.

Shaorunerk has apparently found one of the event pillars, or the Puca have taken it over; he said you should deal with them and investigate the pillar.

And after you fulfilled a few more requests from Shaorunerk, you reported to the student Sulla about what had happened so far.
