  1. UrdWe had to leave the Moslan Forest anyway.
  2. NemonBut...
  3. UrdSo, you're here to check if Hystan's body is still intact?
  4. HadalaThat is not the only reason, Urd. The Blades are after Nemon, and everyone in the area is...
  5. NemonThat's enough, Hadala.
  6. UlgornDid the high priest's body make it here safely?

  1. UrdOf course, Ulgorn.
  2. You can see for yourself, he is resting on that altar in front of us.
  3. UrdHystan's body is sealed atop the magic casket.
  4. NemonLittle more than a shell... Can we really get any leads on the Core here?
  5. UrdHe has a deep scar on his body.
  6. Perhaps we can view the memories of what caused it.
  7. NemonI like that idea. It's worth a try.
  8. UrdHis body alone was not enough.
  9. Let's talk outside.
  10. UrdThe memory behind Hystan's scar... He must have experienced something truly brutal.
  11. It must have happened in the last battle against the Balaur. When he and the Destruction Archons were wiped out.
  12. NemonSo we really have no hope of learning anything useful without that Fafnite?
  13. UrdThat seems to be the case. But at least we know his body is still intact.
  14. Once you have retrieved the High Priest's Fafnite, you will be able to find the Core.
  15. NemonAnd the High Priest's Fafnite is with the Blades. Everything always comes back to them...
  16. UrdBefore that, I must ensure the Balaur do not find this place. The entire surrounding area is overrun with them.
  17. UlgornSpeaking of which, I've been wondering how you've stayed undetected this long. Do you have some kind of device here?
  18. UrdYes, we are hidden behind a magical barrier, but we're far from safe.
  19. The barrier is growing weaker, because the spirit power we use is quickly fading.
  20. There are a number of spirit altars in the Purifying Forest that we utilize to maintain the barrier.
  21. The forest also contains the Sacred Tree Grisilla, the largest and most ancient of the Elim, who provides the core of the barrier's power.
  22. Tragically, Grisilla has been gravely wounded by Fafnir, and is slowly falling victim to poison blood.
  23. We need to restore Grisilla, or else we cannot guarantee the safety of this place.
  24. NemonI understand, but we have no time. Who knows what the Blades might get up to if we leave them be.
  25. UrdThat may be so, but you have no clues to lead you. If we are unable to protect this place and the High Priest's body, it will all have been for naught.
  26. HadalaUrd's right. If we know the Assembly is still safe, it will allow us to focus fully on our search.
  27. NemonDo none of you have a sense of urgency? How can you dismiss the Blades threat so easily after all they've done?
  28. UrdUrgent though it may be, you cannot take shortcuts, Nemon. If the Assembly falls, everything falls.
