Description:
Go to Golden Bough Garrison, and talk to Castor. Talk to Axelion. Collect the Wall Fragment, and bring them to Axelion. PlayerReport to Castor. Order: The Golden Bough Legion is exploring the Eracus Temple Cavern. Meet Brigade General Castor and receive his instructions.
Summary:
Castor said that the Golden Bough Legion is investigating the secrets of the Eracus Temple Cavern, and instructed you to go to Axelion for a special mission.

You found the missing pieces from the spiral towers in the temple as Axelion asked, and he deduced that the Eracus Temple Cavern wasn't actually a temple but an ancient playground for child, perhaps named Kahrun.

Full quest's text:
One of the Golden Bough Legion's main objectives here in Eltnen is to explore the Eracus Temple Cavern.

It is still a mystery how our ancestors managed to build such an enormous temple underground. And we're uncertain as to which Empyrean Lord it was dedicated to.

Player: "Exploring, eh?"

Much of the Eracus Temple Cavern has disintegrated due to age. Axelion is leading the reconstruction, but who knows when we'll be done? I hope it gets done soon, though, so that he'll stop bugging me to give him more fodder... er, soldiers.

But Eltnen is a dangerous place, and our ranks are already depleted. Talk to Axelion if you want work--I'm sure he can use capable hands.

Player: "Faith and arms!"

I'm glad you came. I had actually asked Brigade General Castor for you in particular.

I need you to help us uncover the secret of Eracus Temple Cavern. There are several walls of stone in the temple, but we cannot make them out due to damage. If we could restore the walls, we could examine the engravings and perhaps work out which Empyrean Lord the temple was constructed for.

Player: "How do we do that?"

There are six spiral towers of different heights in the Eracus Temple Cavern. In the center is the highest and largest tower, and the remaining five towers are arranged in a circle around it.

Each of the five smaller towers are patterned with unique engravings. The walls are badly damaged, but the fragments that should be lying nearby are nowhere to be found.

My current theory is that the indigenous creatures nearby took away the pieces we need.

Player: "What creatures?"

I don't know which animals--I'm an archaeologist, not a biologist! Just kill anything there and take back the Wall Fragments.

I already found the piece that fits the Flower Wall--the first spiral tower.

If you find the fragments of the walls in the remaining four towers, we can read what our ancestors wrote there.

Player: "Find the fragments...got it."

Did you find the Wall Fragments that broke off the spiral towers?

Player: "Here they are."

You found them all! In all my years as an archeologist, there has never been such a collection of artifacts. They belong in a museum!

Hmm, but I see strange writing here. "Sepi mal, Kahrun, Ell mal Arch bin..." It's ancient Atreian language, from before the Cataclysm. I can understand "birthday," "playground," and nothing else. Kahrun, though...The grammar suggests a name.

Wait...the Eracus Temple Cavern wasn't a temple at all, but a playground for a child named Kahrun? What kind of Daeva could make an immense, secret playground for their kid? Marvelous! You must report this to Castor at once!

Player: "I will."

Ah, I heard you were able to fully restore the five walls!

This is excellent news! Axelion and I had no doubt you would succeed.

Now, report what happened.

Player: "There were foes all around..."

A playground, huh? Sounds like his mind is addled with heat, but what do I know about archeology? Perhaps he's right.

At any rate, good work. A reward for your troubles.
