Azphelumbra, Player. I am Merhen. Hogidin and I are in charge of occupation strategies here in Gelkmaros.

We have some brief lessons to teach, but don't worry--no one is going to make you fly through hoops. We just want to give you some personal insights on the situation here in Gelkmaros.

Player: "Tell me more."

Based on Empyrean Lord Marchutan's predictions, we came here specifically to hunt for Siel's Relics. We've made little progress, but the search for Siel's Relics is still our prime focus here, and it should be yours as well.

Many people are going to need your help in the future, Player, but if we cannot secure Siel's Relics, we may not have a future.

That's really all I wanted to say, but Hogidin would like to talk with you for a moment too.

Player: "Blood for blood."

Greetings, Player. I am Hogidin. Did you speak with Merhen? Good, good.

Listen--what she told you? No secret to anyone. But what I tell you now? Classified. If it gets leaked to the Elyos? We could lose this fortress. You must keep this secret. At all costs.

Understood?

Player: "My lips are sealed."

You understand the danger? I hope so. We can use this fact to attack the Elyos. However, they can easily do the same.

You must keep this secret. No one must know of the Silentera Canyon. No one must know how to open its entrance. If the Elyos learn of this? All is lost.

Player: "I will tell no one."

I will be here later. Come visit again. Merhen will also be happy to help.

Blood for blood, Player.
