When you were still in Gelkmaros, you were somewhat clumsy and everything was awkward, but here you have become quite seasoned.

Therefore I would like to entrust you with a new task.

It’s a mission in which you will confront the Balaur.

• You keep listening.

The Antagor Battlefield is the area where the Balaur’s Dredgions crashed when the Asmodians invaded Balaurea.

Nevertheless, there are still remaining Balaur soldiers there who threaten the Gelkmaros Fortress.

That’s why we established the Antagor Guard Post to keep an eye on the Balaur. It’s a hassle, but unavoidable.

• You keep listening.

Quest: Solve the problem on Antagor Battlefield at Valetta’s request.

You’ve only been at the Gelkmaros Fortress for a short time. Wouldn’t it be time for you to try your hand against the Balaur?

Go and meet Vyuin.

He will inform you of the exact details of the mission.

• You end the conversation.

Stay away from me, Daeva. I’m cursed. I have nothing but bad luck!

I break anything made of glass. White Elrocos keep crossing my path! I manage to trip over anything that could make me stumble!

It’s been like this for years...

I must consult an oracle and find out how to get rid of this bad luck. I can’t live like this.

• ‘I have received Valetta’s orders.’

Ah, at last Gelkmaros Fortress has sent reinforcements!

Even if they’re only the last remaining Balaur, there are so many Dredgion crash sites that we are short on personnel.

Sorry for the inconvenience right off the bat, but may I assign you a task immediately?

• You nod.

Excellent!

Then the first task is to recover the Balaur Armour from a Balaur Corpse on Antagor Battlefield.

It’s not that supplies are short; leadership has ordered the Balaur Armour be studied, since even proper weapons can hardly affect it.

Then I’ll set off at once!

• You end the conversation.

The Balaur Armour possesses special properties.

One of them is the aura that emanates from it.

They are described as icy and unpleasantly cold, yet it does not seem to be a sensation produced by temperature. Investigations have already shown that it has nothing to do with heat.

The second property is that the Balaur armour was forged from the blood of the Balaur.

The leadership pays particular attention to that.

• You are to recover the Balaur armour.

The Balaur armour you recover I will carefully collect and forward to the leadership.

They will appreciate that highly at the 1st Pandaemonium Research Centre.

Now, will you take on the next task?

• You keep listening.

The next task is to track down a remaining Balaur soldier who fled.

Did you receive basic clues about the pursuit and any evidence of an incursion in training?

The targets are Traitor Kumbanda and Trifire.

Those are the guys we captured in combat; they promised to reveal Tiamat’s secret if we spared them, so we held them. In the end, however, they escaped and even captured a fortress in Gelkmaros.

• You keep listening.

Even if the fortress was a fake and thus of little consequence, they must pay properly for the deceit against us!

If you use the Watching Eye found in the 1st Research Centre of Pandaemonium, you can discover where the fleeing Balaur soldiers went.

Please install the Night of the Watching Eye at Dredgion Crash Site. Then, using old records and information, I will locate the whereabouts of the remaining Balaur soldiers for you.

And after you find the whereabouts of the Balaur soldiers...! Do you know what to do after that?

• You end the conversation.

While you were undertaking the mission, Daeva, we here also received another report.

Apparently Kumbanda and Trifire are apparently being pursued by the same Balaur group.

Probably because rumours spread that the Tiamat Legion had been running a disinformation campaign.

Have you neutralised the remaining Balaur soldiers yet?

• You keep listening.

Ha, that is pleasing.

It is said that a direct confrontation with the Balaur is a matter of ‘neutralisation’; it would not be an exaggeration to call them seasoned war veterans.

Good, go and report your mission to Brigade General Valetta.

She will be waiting for you.

• You end the conversation.

Phew, the remaining Balaur soldiers are causing quite a lot of trouble.

That they recovered the wreck of the Dredgion right in front of the Gelkmaros Fortress also appears to be part of the whole affair.

• You give your mission report.

I’ve already heard something about that. Did you track the Balaur soldiers all the way and neutralise them?

You are more determined and colder than you look.

Good work.

Valetta attempted to resolve the problem at the Antagor Guard Post near the Crashed Dredgion.

At the Antagor Guard Post, Vyuin received the order to recover the Balaur Armour and eliminate the remaining Balaur soldiers.

After you completed the task and reported to Vyuin and Valetta, you successfully carried out the first mission in the fight against the Balaur and received praise.
