Story
The offer
How does it feel to have successfully completed your first mission in Gelkmaros?
There are still a few loose ends left.
It’s nice to be of use.
- You keep listening.
Then I’ll have to pull myself together and look for new tasks.
Please deliver this letter to Herka.
If you deliver the letter, Herka will inform you afterwards.
- You end the conversation.
Journal
Note: At Gelastra’s request, use the fortress windstream.
Along the way
Ah, Daeva! I thought you had already left the fortress.
Glastara has given you a letter...
Oh... oh... what am I to do? Why must this happen to me...? I’m tearing my hair out!
- You keep listening.
Centurion Gelastra has tasked me with delivering a very important letter to Faruth in Krug Basin.
He told me to use a windstream at Dragonrest to get to Faruth more quickly, but I don’t like that method of travel. It actually fills me with mortal fear.
So, Daeva, would you deliver this letter to Faruth in my stead?
- ‘What is this wind current?’
There are many places in Gelkmaros where air currents form. The currents that arise at these spots are what we call wind currents.
If you use the wind currents that form at these spots, you can cover large distances in one go.
You only have to switch to glide mode and then let the wind carry you.
If you want to land while en route, simply change course and leave the wind current.
Doesn’t sound difficult once it’s explained, does it? So, would you, in my place, take the wind current and travel to Faruth?
- You keep listening.
If you already know how to use the wind current, or (lowering his voice) if you, like me, are not afraid of the wind current, you may refuse!
Refusing has no disadvantages, but if you help me, you’ll receive a small compensation. Think carefully and decide.
If you want to use the wind current, meet Athana, otherwise seek out Vesvola.
How would you like to proceed?
- You say: ‘I will use the windstream.’
- You say: ‘I will not use the windstream.’
Do you want to take the windstream and go to Faruth?
(Melgre smiles.) You have probably come here because of Herka’s troops.
Well then, I will explain it to you in detail.
- You keep listening.
Do you see the curved channel to the right of the stairs in front of you, connected to the platform?
That is the starting point of the wind current at Fort Gelkmaros.
To reach the place where Faruth is, you must use several wind currents in succession.
- You keep listening.
First unfurl your wings at the starting point of Gelkmaros’ wind current, then enter the current.
Then fly to the Antagor Canyon, enter another windstream there, and when you branch into the Krug Basin Hunting Zone, you’ll land directly at Faruth.
You will then find Faruth on the ridgeline overlooking the Aether Research Group Campsite.
I wish you a good journey.
- You end the conversation.
Why are you here? If you have no reason to be here, you should leave the testing grounds immediately.
Oh! You came from the fortress. Do you perhaps have something for me?
- I have a letter for you.
No, that is...
(You quickly read Glastra’s letter and then fold it back up.)
Ah, so you have come on behalf of Captain Gellastra.
It doesn’t seem to be the message we were waiting for, but in any case: thank you for bringing the letter this far.
- You keep listening.
Since you’ve come this far, could you tell me something about the investigation team’s Aether Research Group Campsite?
From here, the investigation team’s Aether Research Group Campsite is located to the two o’clock position.
If you meet Vesvola, she will tell you what to do.
- You end the conversation.
(Stares at the water.)
(Notices someone is there.) Oh, I was just watching the Mookies.
I was just wondering what we're going to do with them.
- You keep listening.
After all, I've been tasked with eliminating all dangers in this area before I am dispatched to Krug Basin.
Phew... I still have to prepare for the deployment. They give me no time to rest at all.
The current here is particularly strong. Therefore one must be careful not to be swept downstream into Krug Basin.
I have blocked the way with a tree trunk and removed any sharp rocks from the water's edge as a precaution.
Now only the Mookies remain... I don’t know how we should proceed.
- You keep listening.
Hah! I’ve already understood that.
Since we settled here, they have become more aggressive. Apparently they consider this area their territory.
Do we have any choice other than to catch them all?
That'll be a lot of work... I don't have that much time.
So, would you help me? I don’t think I can manage it alone.
- You keep listening.
Then deal with the Trka and bring me Mookie Steelthorns as proof, please.
You need proof for things like that.
I’ll take care of the rest, so please take some of the burden off me.
- You end the conversation.
It’s unfortunate to disturb their territory, but we need something to eat.
Unavoidable sacrifices must be made for the troops’ operations.
- Hand in Mookie Steelthorns.
The sound of the falls is very calming.
So peaceful that you almost forget you are at war with the Balaur.
But that only lasts a short while; the busy back-and-forth deployment orders remind us that this is a battlefield.
- You nod.
Reward
But thanks to Daeva, you have even more reason to hear the roar of the waterfall.
Thank you very much.
Completion
He/she handed a letter from Gelastra to Herka and asked that it be forwarded to Faruth.
But Herka said she was afraid to use the windstream and asked that the letter be passed on instead.
He/she used the windstream of the Gelkmaros fortress, travelled to the Gelkmaros waterfall where Faruth is, and handed over the letter.
Since Faruth had come this far anyway, he asked to help with the camp’s investigation detachment assignments; so I helped Vesvola with her mission.
Vesvola then had some time and thanked me.
