- Guard SilvarIdentify yourself!
- Hmm... And you're a Daeva? Not a Sura?
- What? You escaped from Ishtar Fortress? How did you know where to find us?
- Hithanya... I see.
- This is the Dawn Legion Forward Base.
- We can't just let any outsider in since we're in the middle of an operation. But if Hithanya sent you here...

- Go ask Nania for permission to stay. If she doesn't allow it, we'll kick you out.
- You'll find Nania in front of her quarters—the big tent.
- Guard SilvarThere's a survivor!
- NaniaYou escaped from Ishtar Castle? Hithanya told me everything... I'm impressed.
- Unfortunately, we don't really have the capacity to help you right now. We're in the middle of an operation.
- Not to mention, there's no guarantee you're not a Sura. We'll have to kill you if you are.
- Get yourself checked over by Eaetos. We'll let you stay if there's no issue.
- EaetosNania sent you?
- You want to stay here? Well, then we need to confirm whether you're Daeva or Sura.
- It's a simple procedure. If you are a Daeva capable of using Odyle, the Kibelisk will react and bind with you.
- On the other hand, if you've had your bio-energy extracted by the Balaur and become a Sura, the soldiers will deal with you.
- Bind with the Kibelisk behind me.
- EaetosYou're capable of using Odyle. Good. We won't need to worry about you turning into a Sura.
- Forgive our wariness. You're the first to escape Ishtar Castle.
- The Balaur have recently shifted their priorities towards hunting Daeva. They extract our bio-energy and convert it into an alternate form of energy called Surana.
- All captured Daeva are doomed to become Sura once their energy is fully depleted.
- As it stands, Poeta is little more than an Island of Death. That old isle of poetry and song is long gone...
- Sorry, I got carried away there. Anyway, drink this Odyle potion if you feel sick.
- Odyle is a Daeva's source of strength. It will help you recover quickly.
