Well we haven't learned much more about the missing Odella.

Player, I have an idea. It might be a crazy one, but....

Player: "I'm all ears."

Well, so far, we've mostly asked around with the people who work during the day. But if I had concocted some bizarre scheme to smuggle Odella, why would I move about during the daylight?

Mischief is best carried out under cover of darkness!

Kistenian is said to be working day and night right now, so maybe he's seen something!

Player: "Good point."

Player! I was hoping you might stop in to see me some day.

I've heard you're looking for some information.

I'd be happy to help, of course--but I'll need you to do me a favor in return....

Player: "Uh, sure. What do you know about Odella?"

Odella? The herb that survives off of Aether? It's pretty useful stuff.

Well... I can't be SURE, but I thought I caught a whiff of Odella when some Quairerk Traders come through here. They had a big cart with 'em--who knows what was in it.

That's all I know. Now, about that favor....

Player: "What do you need?"

Look, I don't even know if I can properly express how long we've been trying to restore Kurngalfberg. Thanks to Esekiel's arrogance, the city fell victim to the wrath of Ereshkigal.

It's frozen down to its very core.

The Daevas of Flame have been working tirelessly to thaw it, but it has been... something of an ordeal.

Player: "How can I help?"

There's only so much the Daevas of Flame can do by themselves. There was a limit to melting Kurngalfberg by just us Daevas of Flame alone. We need help.

Kasadrasil is an Elim Elder, and I think our only hope. The Elim are naturally gifted with life magic--no small boon when it comes to trying to thaw and entire city. Unfortunately, he's under the sway of a powerful curse that keeps him locked in slumber.

We have to break the curse. Take this Essence of Elim, travel to The Sacred Orchard and wake Kasadrasil. Good luck.

Player: "I'll do what I can."

So, it was probably the Quairerk Traders?

I guess we'd better interrogate them.
