The vision we shared, Player--does it not still haunt you? Beritra and his forces, their terrifying weapons of war, the Invasion Power Generator....

I'm even more exhausted and weak now than before, but I've spent all my time studying the Generator and learning its secrets.

It is as I suspected--Beritra has created this device to carry out an invasion. It maintains a portal they call the Invasion Corridor.

Player: "A portal?"

Yes--do you see it in the center of the Generator?

Beritra's forces have already used it. I'd fallen asleep after days of surveying it, and suddenly I woke to Beritra's troops pouring out of the Corridor.

If you look around, you'll see I dealt with them myself.

Player: "Yes, I see."

I've discovered small tags on their dead bodies that appear to provide entry through the Aetherbrak Invasion Corridor.

I've already sent Spy Ditono ahead of me to locate the Beritra forces and identify their plans. He's brilliantly disguised so I assume he's all right, but I haven't heard from him.

I need you to go in my place. I'm in desperate need of rest, but we can't stop on my account. Please use this tag to go through the portal, find Spy Ditono, and continue this investigation. Would you do this for me, Player? For Elysea?

Player: "I will do it. Be well."

(The quivering portal within this active Invasion Corridor brims with the power of Ide.)

(Wary and watchful must be the soldier who enters, for hostile infiltration of far-off lands is its one dark purpose.)

(Only with an Aetheric Field Zone Tag in your possession will entry be granted.)

Player: Use the Invasion Corridor.

Did Lord Kahrun send you?

I haven't been able to make any outside contact--much less escape--with the enemy preparing for a mass invasion. Security has been tight.

As you might have guessed, this space is a relay point for Beritra's invading troops as well as a center for technology research. This invasion...it's going to be even more epic than we feared.

Player: "What have you heard?"

It's more than what I've heard, Daeva--it's what I've seen.

I came across a document that lists Atreia, Levinshor, Kaldor, and even the Abyss as Beritra's targets. They are planning a seriously catastrophic takeover. Kahrun was right to worry--we must inform our allies.

Please, Player, I need your help. Take this Secret Zone Tag to enter the Secret Zone Invasion Corridor over there and tell the others.

Player: "OK, but where does it lead?"

This particular portal leads to an invasion zone called Kaldor.

There, you will find the Beritra Commander Gartacia, who has their detailed Invasion Plan. We must get our hands on it, Player. Use whatever it takes to take the Commander down and retrieve that document.

So you know, I will be disabling the Corridor after you leave. Stopping the Beritra Legion from using it will at least bide us some time. My plan is to somehow make my way back to Lord Kahrun...how, I don't know. I'll worry about that. Now go--please hurry!

Player: "I'm going. Take care."

(The power of Ide in this Invasion Corridor is strong.)

(The portal will allow those possessing a Secret Zone Tag to infiltrate distant lands.)

(Hurry if you wish to escape!)

Player: Use the Invasion Corridor.

Aren't you Player, the one who vanquished Hyperion?

My, you look terrible--I mean...just...you look like you've seen the end of the world.

What's going on?


Player: "Look at this."

(Opens and skims the document) Woah, how'd you come across this, [%userclass]? This has clearly been kept within only the highest ranks--it's written in Balaur letters, but it's elaborately coded.

Invasion Corridor, Invasion Power Generator, Invasion Plan...well I certainly see an ominous theme here.

Could you give me a moment? I need time to decipher all this.

Player: "Of course."

Well--this is terrifying. True, we were dispatched here because Beritra's reinforcements seemed to be multiplying around this mysterious portal, but we weren't sure exactly what it was.

I guess now it's not so mysterious...I don't think anyone imagined the Balaur would attempt to plan an invasion this...catastrophic. (Shudders.)

Player, you must go to the Saparinerk's Settlement right now and report these shocking details to Captain Alphioh.

Player: "I will go."

By Aion's light! Is this truly the meaning of those strange devices in Kaldor?

(Reopens the plan) Has anyone read this? It says all preparations are complete, and this date is marked as the Day of Grand Invasion! If I were to venture a guess, I'd say those Invasion Corridors are going to let out rivers of Beritra troops on that day.

This is extremely grave news, Daeva. I must inform my superiors immediately so we can warn every region and make our own preparations. All of Elysea owes you its gratitude for finding these details. Now we can only hope to be blessed moving forward.
