This continent was submerged at the bottom of the sea until recently, and yet it is inhabited by creatures exhibiting the characteristics of terrestrial animals.

That includes the corals on the Southern Coral Hills... They are truly unusual creatures.

Many believe that corals are plants, but in actuality they are petrified animals. But the corals in this place flower on their own.

Thus they exhibit characteristics both of creatures that live underwater and of terrestrial plants. The significance of these Coral Flowers for science cannot be overstated.

Can you obtain [plur]Coral Flower[pl:"Flowers"] from the Southern Coral Hills and bring them to Lavius?
Research in Signia basically consists of two fields.

Biology and archaeology.

The archaeologists are entirely focused on the past. In contrast, we biologists research the past and the present, and even make predictions about the future. Doesn't that make biology the superior science?

What is that you have there, anyway, Player?
The Corals of the Southern Coral Hills have more in common with terrestrial plants than petrified creatures.

Ha! This truly is a peculiar and mysterious place. Coral Flowers which grow on animals...

We must begin our research quickly...
Ah! You're still here!

The sample you obtained will help fortify our biologist's position.

This isn't much, but please accept it. Thank you very much!
