Go a bit farther from here and you’ll discover a place called the The Aetherion.

It’s called by the name because there is a huge temple, which feels like it’s alive at times.

It’s because the temple looks and feels different at different times.

I was curious about the phenomena and did some investigation, and it appears that the energy in the area feels different during day and night.

And I also realized that the change in energy creates strangely deformed creatures in the area.

From the way I looked at it, those deformations were bad news and it made me anxious.

Maybe it’s already too late, but I think we should investigate it and nip any problems in the bud rather than ignoring it like nothing’s happened.

Player, could you go to the The Aetherion and investigate the ancient ruins during day and night?

Player: Accept the proposal.

Did you examine the ancient ruins?

Were there any differences in the ruins during day and night?

Player: Hand over Ancient Ruin Pieces.

Are these really the pieces you obtained in the same temple?

The pieces you got at night are definitely giving out stronger energy.

But this one seems to be getting weaker.

And the inscriptions on this piece... seem similar to the records on giant weapons.

Player: Continue listening.

Player: Give him the outcome of the ruin investigation.

Investigation revealed than an overload of Aether energy at the ruins has created various mutations.

I think this is caused by a powerful being somewhere inside the ruins.

We have to find and destroy it before it’s too late.

I suggest searching Court of Auronos after sunset, when the energy of the ruins is at its strongest.

Going there alone might be dangerous, so gather reliable companions to go with you.

Player: End dialog.

I did notice that the flows of Aether around the temple have stabilized, and now I understand that it was because you stopped the being called Auronos, Player.

From what you tell me, it sounds like it was a giant weapon.

Perhaps the ancient ruin records you obtained for us previously were about the giant weapons after all.

I find it hard to believe because there has never been any documented evidence about giant weapons possessing such abilities, but Iluma shows us things that we’ve never known before every day.

I have a feeling that there might even be a truth out there that could change everything we thought we knew.

It could be the start of a new era. Anyway, thanks for your effort.
