Kepillia: The Scarlet Forest's Drana Injectors are damaged, the central Power Tower has exploded, and the Drana repositories have been emptied.

Kepillia: Three major facilities down within a short period. There's no better time to make your move.

Caelid: But we still haven't heard from Phernos. Even if we get inside, we can't do anything without any apparitions.

Nania: Then all this will have been for nothing. Is there any way to buy more time?

Caelid: We need to keep causing diversions so the chaos never settles. Kepillia, what else is there in this area?

Kepillia: All the major facilities have been hit. There's nothing else that might cause more chaos.

Caelid: An old-fashioned skirmish it'll have to be, then.

Caelid: Nania, ‹your name›. Attack the Balaur base with me. Anything goes. Target anything in sight.

Caelid: Attacking from all sides periodically will confuse the Balaur on where to station their units and make them lose focus.

Caelid: All right. Let's get moving.

Step 3 · 3 lines

Phernos: I will arrive with the Illusion Cavaliers' apparitions shortly.

Phernos: Are you ready to enter Nahid Brigade Fortress?

Phernos: I will head straight to the Disposal Plant. Join me there.

Turning in · 4 lines

Caelid: So Phernos finally convinced the apparitions. Great work, both of you.

Nania: I'm glad we didn't waste our time. Will the apparitions really help us find the Illusion Bracelet...?

Caelid: I wonder... If they react to the presence of illusion magic, it shouldn't take long at all.

Caelid: ...Let's focus on our current mission for now.

When it is done

"I will go straight to the Disposal Plant. Join me there." All facilities were struck, but Phernos has still not made contact. Without Phernos and the Apparitions, even if you make it inside the disposal plant, your chances of finding the bracelet are slim. You kept attacking the Balaur forces to buy time until he finally contacted you. He had successfully persuaded the Apparitions of the Illusion Cavaliers to help.
