- HadalaNo time to waste, right? We should begin before the light fades.
- UlgornWere you able to purify the Wind Altar?
- That's a relief. I'm at the Guide Rest Stop.
- There are people here who call themselves Spirit Guides.
- They should have some useful information. Hurry over.
- HadalaGood, the purification seems to have been a success. What did Ulgorn have to say?

- He's with the Spirit Guides?
- I'll keep watch here. Go meet up with Ulgorn at the Guide Rest Stop.
- UlgornGood to see you, Daeva. These people are the Spirit Guides.
- They seem to know a lot about the state this place is in.
- ZaksenWe are Spiritmasters. We summon and control Spirits bound by the Empyrean Lord's contract.
- Our duty is to guide the Spirits of Atreia and watch over the forest.
- I heard that you have saved Ecco at the Etheria Rift. Very impressive.
- UlgornYou're aware of what happened at Moslan Forest?
- ZaksenIndeed. It pertained to the Spirits, after all.
- UlgornUrd said we need to purify altars and restore the Sacred Tree...
- ZaksenThat's correct. Even if all of the altars are purified and restored, if the poison blood eating away at the Sacred Tree, Grisilla, remains, it will all be for nothing.
- UlgornSo how do we find and remove this poison blood?
- ZaksenFafnir's poison blood has burrowed deep into the Sacred Tree.
- With the tree itself contaminated by the poison blood, we have no way to restore the forest.
- UlgornAre you saying all this business with the altars is a waste of time?
- ZaksenNot at all. Restoring the altars will buy us much more of it, in fact. Not to mention, if they had been lost, healing the Sacred Tree would have become entirely impossible.
- UlgornBut aren't you saying nobody knows how to? Can a spirit not tell you?
- ZaksenGrisilla should know the answer herself. However, we're not sure of her current location.
- UlgornGrisilla... Either way, we need to finish purifying the altars first. Let's hurry to the Fire Altar.
- The pool of poison blood slowly fades away.
- Vines corroded by poison blood slowly fade away.
- UlgornHave you managed to clean up the area a little? Oh, me? I've been waiting here at the Fire Altar.
- Come meet me when you're finished, and we'll get straight to purifying it.
- UlgornThere, the Fire Altar has been purified. Zaksen just called via Selvis, as well.
- He told us to go see him after we're done.
- ZaksenWere you able to purify the Fire Altar?
- I called you back because I didn't tell you something earlier. You see... we aren't the only Spirit Guides in this forest.
- There's a place north of here called Faded Stump. The Spirit Guides there are also working to protect the areas around the altars. They should be able to help.
- I'd advise stopping by before heading to the Earth Altar.
- UlgornHmm... We have to meet up with Nemon anyways, so it can't hurt. Let's go, Daeva.
- DarmandAha, you're the ones sent by Zaksen!
- Perfect timing. Something serious has happened near the Earth Altar.
- The toxic aura pouring out of the unstable earth recedes.
