  1. CaelidWe only did what was right. Now, can you tell us how to enter Ardus Shrine?
  2. DioniOf course. Your sincerity and dedication mark you as worthy.
  3. The true path towards the Shrine can only be opened with the Illusion God's Brazier.
  4. The Illusion Tree's Essence contains a special energy that, when burned in the brazier, emits smoke that opens the path to Ardus Shrine.
  5. The true Shrine, no mere illusion.
  6. Look around the garden. The Illusion Tree's Essence can be found under the lush purple trees.
  7. PhernosHmm, it seems he is telling the truth. Everyone focus on gathering the Illusion Tree's Essence.
  8. DioniWhat a harvest! Beautiful, isn't it?
  9. But yet there's more. A ritual is required to refine and process it.
  10. Only a handful of the Illusion God's pilgrims know how to do this. Allow me to be of assistance this time.
  11. Could you help out other pilgrims while I refine the Essence? Many were attacked by spirits before you all arrived.
  12. It keeps weighing on my mind how we were unable to retrieve the belongings of the dead. Please do so, so that they may rest peacefully.
  13. DioniThese items look familiar... Our companions will continue their pilgrimage with us, through that which they left behind.
  14. Thank you so much.
