As bad as the Frigida Dredgion invading Sanctum was, I'm starting to think it was just a distraction. I have some alarming news, Player. At first we thought these were isolated incidents--it is a war, after all--but it's been confirmed. Daevas are going missing all over Atreia.

The Sanctum Headquarters thought this was maybe the doing of the Ereshkigal Legion and asked the Reshanta Headquarters to investigate, but the Reshanta Headquarters were lacking in manpower and busy reinforcing their defenses. So, they've asked us.

And now, I'm asking you. Go and talk to Brigade General Giscours in the upper layer of Reshanta. And... stay safe, Player. I have a bad feeling about this one.

Player: Accept

Welcome. You're here to help investigate the Daevas missing in Atreia, right?

We believe that the Ereshkigal Legion is behind the disappearances that started happening after the Frigida Dredgion invasion, but we have no idea what they are trying to accomplish.

Player: "I'm listening."

Headquarters sent the Arrows of Freedom to follow the Dredgion on its return from Sanctum, and tailed it to one of the floating islands in the upper layer of Reshanta. They were just trying to get a look at the place, gain more information.

Of the seven members of the detachment only their leader, Bastiel, returned. He was gravely wounded.

It was unclear whether he would survive, but luckily, he made it and is now on the mend.

Player: "What happened to the others?"

We don't know. Bastiel insisted the place needed to be investigated again and requested troops, but as you know, the Ereshkigal Legion here at Reshanta has us too short-handed.

You have no idea how glad I am that troops were sent from Iluma.

Go speak with Bastiel. He can tell you more.

Player: "On my way."

Are you here to help find the missing Daevas? Listen carefully, there's no time.

The Daevas were kidnapped by the Frigida Dredgion and taken to the Drakenwreck Dig, one of the floating islands at the upper layer of Reshanta.

I've been on missions in every corner of Reshanta, but I've never seen this one. My guess is the Ereshkigal Legion built it for a specific reason.

Player: "What did you find?"

Horrors you can't even imagine, Daeva.

It's not only Daevas the Frigida Dredgion is taking. There are all manner of creatures there, and all of them... hurting. We should have waited, but I couldn't stand to see them suffer. We had to try. And... the Legion discovered us.

I... managed to escape. I'm ashamed of myself for running, but... at least I didn't die. I’ll be able to go back and rescue them. Will you help me?

Player: "Of course."

Thank you. The place where they are keeping the Daevas is called the Bastion of Souls.

You can get there through the Entrance to the Bastion of Souls on Drakenwreck Dig at the upper layer of Reshanta.

Listen to me, do NOT go alone. Gather as many allies as you can. I will make my preparations and leave as well. I'll see you at The Bastion of Souls.

Player: "Faith and arms!"

Good... You're okay.

I'm glad I was able to catch up with you. I don’t know if I could handle losing anyone else.

The Balaur won't know yet that you and your friends are free. Stay alive, free the other Daevas, investigate what this place is, and then stop the Ereshkigal Legion.
