It seems a hierarchy of sorts has formed among the Balaur Deserters. I suppose it's as they say--even the Sprigg reign in the forest with no Karnif about....

An Archon patrolling beyond the bulwark told me about this situation. With no leader, all the "middle men" are claiming authority over each other.

I find it ridiculous that a ragtag band of defeated Balaur would care about pecking order.


Ha ha! And they're quite serious about it! They've been banging on the bulwark and causing quite a ruckus, trying to show off their strength to one another, no doubt.

I imagine some small fry has taken the top spot, too. What a bother. Obsessed with power, never having possessed it before. Brutality and vicousness, is what that leads to.






Do you think we should just eliminate this new leader as soon as possible?

If we leave them alone for too long, it might cause us trouble later. They might just come charging at the bulwark hoping to break through....

What do you think? Are you up for a challenge?


Excellent. I’ve heard it’s Trifire that became the leader. I imagine it’s wandering around in the Antagor Battlefield, no doubt surrounded by sycophantic [plur]Naduka Sorrowbringer[pl:"Sorrowbringers"].

Dispose of them all – I want them so demoralised that they won’t dare rise up against Asmodae.






You've been in Gelkmaros for a while now, right? You've probably got a good grasp of the situation here. Do you think it's true that our progress has faltered, compared to the early days?

I suppose so. But what can we do? The lack of Aether has been holding us back....

But we can't afford to show weakness, especially now. And that's why I asked you to take out Trifire. Is the task done?




Good work, Player. We can't let those scattered troops gather again so soon after their defeat. They'll only be all the more dangerous united around a leader.

Thank you for dealing with this so quickly. I know this isn't much, but please take it as a token of my appreciation.
