With the help from Cayron and you, Player, we got the key to the secret passage to Adma Stronghold. But we still have a problem.

You know, we don't know where the secret passage is. It's the first time we heard about it. How are we supposed to know where it is?

But we can't give up here, so I'd like to ask you one more time, Player.

Player: Accept the proposal.

Thank you. I guess you will also need time to prepare.

Please return when you are ready to undertake this mission. I will give you more details then.

Player: End dialog.

The Adma Stronghold was owned by the owner of Nahor Old Castle. The secret passage must be inside Nahor Old Castle.

Fortunately, I know a Seiren who has lived around Nahor Old Castle for a long time.

She is a Seiren named Sahnu, and she should know where the secret passage is.

Player: Continue listening.

It's hard to treat a fussy and spoiled Seiren like her, but she'll tell you where the secret passage is if you talk her over.

Find out the location of the passage from Sahnu, use it to enter the Adma Stronghold and check out the situation in there. If you find anything dangerous related to the contamination, please dispose of it.

An elder Daeva called Heintz is also very interested in the Adma Stronghold.

If you complete the mission, please visit him to report the situation.

Then I'll trust this matter to you, Player. Please take care of this.

Player: End dialog.

What brings you here, Daeva?

I'm not talking to selfish and cunning humans.

Don't interrupt me anymore and go away now!

Player: Ask where the secret passage to Adma Stronghold is.

Are you trying to go into Adma Stronghold?

Then, I'm willing to help you. I have a huge grudge against Lanmark, a feudal lord and owner of the Stronghold.

But there’s something you don’t know. The secret passage is really narrow.

I saw a young child sometimes go around the ancient castle and Stronghold. The young child can use the passage, but you can't.

But if you do what I tell you, I will let you know where the secret passage is. Plus, I will help you enter the Stronghold.

First, I'll send you to Alukina's Palace in Beluslan. Defeat Seafoam Spirit and return with the Spirit Drop.

Then, I'll tell you the rest.

Player: Go to the front of Alukina's Palace.

You want to enter Adma Stronghold? With that outlook, you can't even though you know the location.

To use the secret passage, you need something special that you can get only in Alukina's Palace.

So if you want my help, you need to prove you are qualified enough to enter the Stronghold.

Player: End dialog.

Did you go to Alukina's Palace?

You got rid of the Sea Surge Spirit and got Spirit Drop as I told you, didn't you?

Well, give it to me.

Player: Hand over the Waterdrop of Spirit.

Hmm, you got it well.

I should imbue the Waterdrop of Spirit with my magic. Just for a moment.

(Holding the Waterdrop of Spirit, she starts chanting a spell.)

Player: End dialog.

You have a short temper just like other humans.

Wait more. I need more time.

(Holding the Waterdrop, she chants a spell more.)

Now, it's done. Take this first.

Player: Continue listening.

The secret passage to Adma Stronghold is inside Old Nahor Castle. You'll have no problem here with the key.

But a problem arises after that. The passage is really narrow. But I already solved this problem.

If you have the Essence of Ribbit made of the Waterdrop of Spirit, you can transform into a Ribbit. The narrow secret passage will be a piece of cake and you can reach the Adma Stronghold.

If you're confident enough, go to the Adma Stronghold Entrance, the front gate. You may pass through the niche of the door frame as a Ribbit.

If you get to the Adma Stronghold, the transformation will wear off. You're on your own from there. You can get rid of everyone in the Stronghold.

Player: End dialog.

Welcome, Player.

Captain Surt told me he sent you to investigate the Adma Stronghold, Player.

I've been waiting for you to come back, Player.

Did you go into the Stronghold? What did you find inside?

Did everybody become Undead?

Player: Tell him what you saw in the Stronghold.

Was Adma Stronghold full of Vampires and Banshees? They were really selfish... It must have made the Five Empyrean Lords angry.

Also you found Villaire of Red Laize Legion? Looking like a little child?

The suspicious child seen around Adma Stronghold was Villaire.

Furthermore, a seed came out of Villaire when you killed him after he turned returned to his original look, and it went into Player's body...

It's unbelievable. What is this all about...?

Player: Continue listening.

Hm... Given what I have heard so far, the seed seems to have been planted by Dragon Lord Beritra.

And the seed may have affected Villaire to turn him into a young boy.

I thought Beritra fell back too easily... Now I see he tried to contaminate Brusthonin.

But why Villaire...? Anyway, we should inform the Red Laize Legion as well.

After that, inform Sigyn, the Preceptor of Marksmen and Assassins. We'd better let her know, as this is about the Red Laize Legion.

Player: End dialog.

What? It was the conspiracy of Beritra that contaminated Brusthonin?

He used a legionnaire of Red Laize Legion. He's so cunning.

We should tell this to Lord Triniel as well. What if he finds out what happened to the Legionnaire of Red Laize Legion he favored...

Anyway, you have done so well. Now that we found out the cause, it will be much easier for us to control the contamination in Brusthonin.
