Luteros: Let's examine the nearby monoliths. They might have something to teach us about what happened here.
Luteros: There's one monolith here and then another two on the left and right of the temple grounds. Let's talk after reading their contents.
Step 2 · 6 lines
Luteros: Did you find the monoliths? What did they say?
Luteros: Hmm... This part sounds important.
Luteros: The records say Zumion's Mace and the Warding Feather blocked the Balaur's attacks and the poison. This Warding Feather might be the vessel Phernos was talking about.
Luteros: But only the priests know about those holy relics. How can we communicate with insane statues...?
Luteros: Let's try restoring the statues. Search for their heads nearby.
Luteros: If they were damaged enough to separate from the bodies, we'll probably need repair materials too. Come to me after gathering the heads and materials.
Step 4 · 2 lines
Luteros: If they were only damaged this much, we should be able to restore them.
Luteros: All right. I'll try to restore the statues. Report what has happened up until now to Phernos.
Turning in · 4 lines
Phernos: Repairing the statues to restore the priests' memories? Inspired!
Phernos: Learning of the Warding Feather through examining the monoliths is very impressive, too.
Phernos: It's clear those records are telling us we must get our hands on the Warding Feather as well.
Phernos: If we utilize both of the holy relics, we'll be able to use Meslamtaeda's poison at will.
When it is done
"This Warding Feather might be the vessel Phernos was talking about." Seeing that the statues containing the priests' souls are incomplete without the head, Luteros suggested finding their heads and the necessary materials to restore them. After examining the writings on the nearby Monoliths, you found a record of a holy relic called the Warding Feather that blocked all poison and attacks.
