Quest dialogue
39 lines of in-game dialogue from Draupnir. Main speakers: Paitos, Dymones, and Koro.
- DymonesDaeva, before you leave for Eltnen, it might benefit you to experience the Abyss.
- What's the Abyss, you ask?
- The Abyss is a subspace created by AION's fall. A mysterious place filled with a myriad of unknown dangers.
- But the light of hope still shines in even the darkest of places. The longer you endure in the Abyss, the greater your accomplishments will be.
- Of course, it's dangerous to just charge in. Odyle is thin, and time and space themselves are distorted.
- There's a place here in Verteron that's not so different. If you're interested, try visiting there first.

- Draupnir, they call it. Paitos can point the way.
- Well, then. Regardless of what path you walk from here on, I wish only the best for you. I mean it.
- I hope we'll have the chance to meet again someday.
- PaitosHello again! Did you find what you were looking for?
- You really obtained the Core...? Congratulations!
- And now you're off to Draupnir? You never slow down, do you, Daeva?
- Draupnir... It was once a part of Asmodae, conquered by the Balaur.
- But when the Abyss was created, it got sucked inside, and a path to it opened in Verteron.
- We've had a few legionnaires investigate. They weren't in there for long, but they reported lots of similarities with the Abyss.
- Which can only mean it's similarly dangerous. But if you insist on checking it out, I can show you the way.
- Follow me.
- EdnaYou want to enter the Abyss? It's our policy not to let first timers in alone, but we haven't got anyone free to accompany you.
- Then again, if anyone will be fine alone, it's you. Just be sure to talk with Koro when you get there. He's a Shugo of the Black Cloud Merchants.
- The guild is active in the neutral zone of the Abyss. I've traded with them often myself. Just tell him I sent you.
- Good luck in there! I look forward to seeing what you're truly capable of!
- KalyleGreetings. Paitos told me to expect you.
- I'm Kalyle, an explorer of the Abyss! I've been working together with the Notos Legion.
- If you intend to take on the Abyss, you should visit Draupnir first.
- In the enigma that is the Abyss, it's one place we have at least a tenuous grasp of. You'll find the entrance on the Archipelago of Siel's Wings.
- You might encounter Balaur and Asmodians on the way there, though, so be careful.
- KoroAn Elyos? What do you want? Hmm? Edna sent you?
- Ah, yes, Edna! I like her! She helps us trade with Verteron, nyerk.
- She hoped I'd give you the lowdown on the Abyss, nyerk?
- *chuckle* Well, I'd hate to disappoint a valued customer. Listen up!
- This place is the very definition of chaos, nyerk! You'll find life of all stripes here, usually fighting one another!
- Elyos, Balaur, Asmodians... and more! You need to stay on your toes, nyerk.
- If I've scared you off, feel free to use the Teleport Tower in front of the base.
- That's all the advise I can give. What you do next is up to you, nyerk. Anything's possible in this place!
- PaitosYou made it out in one piece! How was it?
- Our legionnaires claimed to have seen mutated Balaur inside. Was it true?
- Goodness! Not only had Bakarma transcended his Balaur form, but you fought and defeated him? Incredible!
- It's safe to say you're more than ready to take on the Abyss. It just so happens an Abyss Portal has opened in the Garden of the Illusion God.
- Our legionnaire, Edna, is keeping an eye on it. If you talk with her, I'm sure she'll let you through.
