Dranvis: Are you... with the Dawn Legion? Showing up at such a desperate moment... It feels like a miracle.
Dranvis: My name is Dranvis, of Notos Legion's 3rd Border Division. I was in charge of reconnaissance around Nahid Fortress.
Dranvis: While the Balaur were away, we attempted to destroy their hideout... But somehow our plan was leaked... and we ran straight into a trap.
Dranvis: I barely made it out, but the others... Please help. My comrades will all die at this rate.

Dranvis: Someone... help... Help me, please!

Dranvis: Thank you. Really, thank you.
Dranvis: I'll show you to their hideout. It's a cave hidden deep within the canyon.
Dranvis: I just hope we're not too late. There's no time to lose. I'll meet you inside.

Dranvis: Ugh, that smell... It's overpowering.
Dranvis: This awful smell, and the fact that they took Daeva away... Don't tell me, this place is also...
Dranvis: Let's go a little faster. I have a bad feeling.
Dranvis: I managed to scout a bit and saw our comrades.
Dranvis: Thankfully, none of them looked seriously hurt. But I didn't see the commander, and that worries me.
Dranvis: We need to rescue my comrades and find the commander.
Dranvis: See that spot? We'll need to clear the path before heading in. Let's take care of those bastards up ahead.
Kharentos: Dranvis! I'm so glad you didn't give up on us. And... you there, you helped too, right?
Kharentos: I saw you fight. Truly formidable. Thank you for rescuing us.
Dranvis: This was made possible because you helped me, ‹your name›. I couldn't have rescued them on my own.
Rakhi: Ah, but this isn't the time. The squad commander and more of our comrades were dragged into there!
Rakhi: They said the commander resisted too strongly, so the Balaur started experimenting on him first.
Rakhi: If it's Surana extraction, not even he can hold out long. And he was already badly wounded from protecting us...
Dranvis: Surana...? So this was a hidden Sura research center after all! I knew it!
Kharentos: I saw what looks like a test tube. That must be what they're using to extract Surana from Daeva.
Kharentos: There are lots of Balaur operating those tubes, too, so be careful. Please, save everyone!
Rakhi: One more thing. The door to the inner chamber seems to be controlled by a lever. I saw them pull it to open the way.
Rakhi: It seems a special mechanical device is required to operate that lever. Check the Balaur you just defeated for it...
Dranvis: Thank you for the information, Rakhi. Can we entrust our commander to you, ‹your name›?
Dranvis: The commander has a strict rule for whenever comrades are captured: "If there is even a single wounded legionnaire, prioritize getting them to safety before all else."
Dranvis: And I have to say I agree. I'll get the wounded safely back to the outpost.
Dranvis: I hate to ask this of you, but... please, rescue the commander for us.
Dranvis: I'll return and rejoin you right after. Come back safe!

Dranvis: The wounded legionnaires are getting treatment at the outpost. But... what about our commander? Did he not make it out with you?
Dranvis: This uniform... Yes, it's his... Is there anything else? Is that...?
Dranvis: I'd recognize this handwriting anywhere. He even wrote down his last will and testament. So... he knew all along what was coming.
Dranvis: He always led us from the front. Always protecting everyone till the end.
Dranvis: Now it's finally sinking in... That someone so strong would give himself up for the rest of us...
Dranvis: He was determined to protect what mattered to him, right to the end.
Dranvis: Thank you. You saved so many of us.
Dranvis: Now it's up to us to carry his will forward. We've got to make sure no one else ever turns into a Sura.
Dranvis: And thank you, really. If it weren't for you, none of us would've made it back.
Dranvis: I'll never forget this. Not what he did... and not what you did either.
When it is done
"He was determined to protect what mattered to him, right to the end." A Notos Legion reconnaissance unit operating near Nahid Fortress was captured by the Balaur. Dranvis, the sole escapee, requested reinforcements to rescue his comrades. Together with Dranvis, you successfully rescued the captured legionnaires from the Balaur hideout. However, the squad commander was discovered sealed inside a test tube deep within the cave—a hidden Surana research facility. You destroyed the test tube and rescued the squad commander, but his body had already undergone an irreversible Sura transformation. In the end, the squad commander was laid to rest, and his personal effects were handed to Dranvis. As Dranvis held them, he seemed to inherit the squad commander's spirit and unyielding resolve.
