Balance is key, Daeva. Nature is balanced, and nature is beautiful.

It is our duty to defend this balance, you know. Aion delivered us to this paradise to oversee it, so when a horror comes to disrupt nature's scales, we must intervene.

• "Is anything specific bothering you?"

Yes, of course! Those barbaric and bloodthirsty beasts we call the Hissing Frillnecks are bothering me.

I stand here on guard, listening to the birdsong and the rush of the winds when suddenly their coarse hissing starts. The birds fall silent, and moments later there's just the sound of some poor creature being butchered.

It's not necessary, Daeva. It's not natural.

• "Surely that's exactly what it is."

I won't have it! They don't belong here!

Fortunately, the fortress residents have complained and now I've been asked to initiate an operation against them.

So, are you in, Daeva? The reward is rather good.

• Accept.
• Decline.

Great!

Now hurry my friend! I long to meditate in peace once again! Return to me as soon as those beasts are butchered and I will make sure you are rewarded well.

Faith and arms!

• "Faith and arms."

Hunt the Frillnecks that interrupt Androkles’ meditation and have started to threaten the fortress residents.

Yes yes yes...you're back! This is excellent news!

Is that blood on your armour? Frillneck blood, I trust? Have you done as I asked?

• "Yes, and more."

Aha! What goes around, comes around! It's about time those creatures got a dose of their own medicine!

I'll send my report up to high command as soon as possible. If you want any more work, just come and see me.

I'll wipe those things from the face of Eltnen, just you wait!

Androkles was growing increasingly furious with the Manduri Forest Frillnecks as they hindered his meditation and disrupted his appreciation of nature. You agreed to hunt some of the Frillnecks for him.
