The mood in Heiron was always grim, but the Balaur invasion's turned it nigh apocalyptic.

An Abyss Gate! We thought it'd never happen again, and yet...

Well, no point in wallowing. We must take the fight to the Balaur--but it isn't easy. There are so few Guardians and so many Balaur. We can't do much more than defend, but that just gives them more time to amass their forces.

Player: "I could disrupt things for them."

That's very noble of you to volunteer. If only there were more Elyos like you.

Player: Accept.

The main threat, I suspect, is from the Indratu Outpost Guards and Indratu Sentrys in the Indratu Barracks. Take some allies--they're quite tough.

Player: "Not tougher than us."

How fortunate--you seem to have returned unscathed. But the Balaur fared less well, I imagine?

Player: "Much less."

Now they've felt the might of the Elyos. This should make them think twice about their invasion!
