Dymones: I'm glad to hear that, Akarios. So what do you plan to do next?
Luteros: So, we infiltrate Nahid Brigade Fortress, then what? How will we find the bracelet?
Caelid: Yes, Phernos. Please enlighten us.
Phernos: Any Daeva relics are likely to be found in the Disposal Plant inside, correct?
Dymones: Indeed.
Phernos: If Reda told us to return it to her, it's very likely that the bracelet is still intact.
Phernos: A treasure like that probably has an enchantment so Reda can sense its aura.
Phernos: She simply could not infiltrate the base to look for it on her own.
Dymones: Aha, I see.
Caelid: It's too dangerous, Phernos. I should know, I've already tried and failed to infiltrate that place.
Step 1 · 30 lines
Caelid: It's far more dangerous than Poeta. We'll be utterly wiped out if things go south.
Dymones: Caelid has a point. We don't want to provoke the Balaur again.
Phernos: Tell me more about the Disposal Plant, Dymones.
Dymones: It's an incineration plant within the Nahid Brigade Fortress, located deep inside the Balaur base.
Dymones: There is a Drana Plantation in front of it, so the Balaur forces are concentrated there.
Nania: And that's where we're trying to infiltrate...?
Luteros: Surely you cannot be serious. This is suicide!
Phernos: What about transforming again? Of course, it is a dangerous place, so mere transformation alone will not work.
Phernos: The Drana Plantation is a source of Balaur energy. Attacking it would cause a distraction allowing us to slip in more easily.
Dymones: That's an excellent idea, Akarios! I'll gather more intel from the legionnaires dispatched near the Drana Plantation.
Dymones: If all goes well, the Dawn Legion will infiltrate through the Dumpsite. How does that sound?
Luteros: Hold on, let's assume that everything goes according to plan. How do we find the Illusion Bracelet among piles of trash?
Nania: The place is supposed to be filled with relics. We can't just go through every pile one by one.
Caelid: Hmm...
Phernos: Do you remember the apparitions that remained at the Verteron Fortress Ruins?
Caelid: Yes. They were once Illusion Cavaliers, resolved to protect the Illusion Relics even after death...
Phernos: Yes, and that bracelet is one such Illusion Relic. With the help of the apparitions, we should have little issue finding it.
Caelid: So, what exactly? Are you intending to bring those apparitions all the way over here?
Phernos: I will try. In the meantime, you must all prepare to infiltrate the fortress.
Caelid: Well, if it's possible... All right, we need time to come up with a plan on how to attack the Drana Plantation anyway.
Phernos: You will use what remains of Meslamtaeda's blood, of course. Do not argue ethics. That place is nothing but a Balaur den.
Caelid: ...Understood.
Dymones: We cannot afford any slip-ups. If this operation goes wrong, the Balaur will reduce Verteron to ash.
Dymones: That's why, we'll also be taking part. Who will be going from the Dawn Legion?
Nania: The captain and I. Reasonable, don't you agree?
Caelid: Sure enough. Where's Hithanya?
Luteros: She's nearby. I'll go look for her. Call if you need anything, Captain.
Phernos: It is settled. I will head for the Verteron Fortress Ruins. I trust you to be ready when I return.
Caelid: Where do you need us, Dymones?
Dymones: Go to the Notos scouting outpost I mentioned. In front of the Drana Plantation.
Step 2 · 13 lines
Kepillia: Laciphiel! I am Notos Legionnaire Kepillia!
Kepillia: I am charged with observing activity at the Drana Plantation. I am told you intend to infiltrate it?
Caelid: Correct. What's the situation in this area?
Kepillia: The plantation is growing every day. The Balaur are raking in more and more resources.
Kepillia: I'd wager they're preparing for Dragon Lord Ishtar's awakening.
Caelid: We need to create chaos at the Drana Plantation. Any suggestions?
Kepillia: A certain way is to destroy their Power Tower. It extracts Drana automatically through pipes connected to Drana trees.
Kepillia: With the Power Tower destroyed, most of the Balaur Lookouts will rush there, leaving behind only rookies and Kobolds.
Caelid: Smart. Thank you.
Kepillia: But getting close to the Power Tower won't be easy. In order to grow a forest, you must first plant a few seeds.
Kepillia: You're able to use transformation magic, right? I recommend transforming into a Kobold and gathering information first.
Caelid: Got it. ‹your name›, you gather intel. Nania and I will search for the Brigade Fortress entrance path.
Caelid: Transform using these leftover materials from the Verteron Fortress.
Step 3 · 6 lines
Kobold Gatherer: Drana condensed roots. Kobolds don't work, get scolded. Scolding scary. Hurts.
Kobold Gatherer: Many roots powerless. Sprout dies. Kobold dies. Kobold don't like die. Work hard.
Kobold Fertilizer Worker: Stone bad. Press roots. Pull stone. No press roots.
Kobold Fertilizer Worker: *sniff* You smell funny. *sniff* Maybe? Confused.
Kobold Drudge: Power Tower many words book. Difficult. Friend finish read?
Kobold Drudge: Hate book. Ate box. You look.
Step 4 · 3 lines
Caelid: Is the search going well?
Caelid: Drana roots and sprouts. Let's inject the poison there.
Caelid: There's a document on operating the Power Tower? Bring it with you, it might be helpful.
Step 7 · 2 lines
Caelid: How are the Kobolds now?
Caelid: Good to hear there's some confusion already. Let's talk about the rest once you're back.
Step 8 · 4 lines
Caelid: Great work, as usual.
Caelid: So what's this document you've brought. Hmm...
Caelid: It seems even a momentary blip in Power Tower operation will cause major chaos.
Caelid: This is priceless information. Good job. Let's cancel the transformation and talk more comfortably.
Turning in · 5 lines
Kepillia: I hate to admit it, but Meslamtaeda's blood is very handy. It wiped out an entire Balaur crop instantly...
Kepillia: I worry for the consequences, but I suppose it shows just how desperate we've grown.
Caelid: It shouldn't cause major issues.... I hope.
Nania: We'll need to wait and see if the poison worked properly. Fingers crossed everything goes according to plan...
Kepillia: Don't worry. I will be watching closely to see if anything goes wrong.
When it is done
"It's far more dangerous than Poeta. We'll be utterly wiped out if things go south." Teina's bracelet is a holy illusion relic. Phernos proposed searching for it at the Balaur Disposal Plant, believing it to still be intact. You discussed Phernos's plan to cause a disruption at the Balaur base and slip into the disposal plant unnoticed. The Dawn and Notos Legions were assigned a joint mission to destroy the power tower in Drana Plantation, while Phernos took charge of bringing Apparitions to help find the bracelet. You disguised yourself as a Kobold and infiltrated the Drana Plantation to gather intel. You used the information you gained to poison the Drana Trees, throwing the plantation into disarray.
