The mood in Heiron was always grim, but the Balaur invasion's turned it nigh apocalyptic.

We thought it'd never happen again, and yet...

Player: "And yet, we must press on."

Yes, but it isn't easy. There are so few Guardians and so many Balaur--and their numbers swell daily.

Still, if we just sit here and defend passively, we only give them more time to fortify.

Player: "I could disrupt things for them."

That's very noble of you to volunteer. If only there were more Elyos like you.

Player: Accept.

The main threat, I suspect, is from the Indratu Lookouts and Indratu Patrollers in the Indratu Barracks. Take some allies--they're quite tough.

Player: "Not tougher than us."

How fortunate--you seem to have returned unscathed. But the Balaur fared less well, I imagine?

Player: "Much less."

Now they've felt the might of the Elyos. This should make them think twice about their invasion!
