The reason I have been so secretive is because this involves a very sensitive project, known only to a few.

One of our tribe, Davlin, has a talent for creating golems.

She meant to find a way to use those golems to fight the Balaur. To keep her work a secret, she built a mansion deep in a forest.

Player: "Secrets are made to be discovered."

Indeed! I have no idea how, but the Balaur found out about her project.

Fortunately, one of Davlin's Hetgolems escaped with a message. She was attacked by a Balaur contingent led by a Drakan named Zadra Spellweaver.

Davlin's creations under Balaur command would be disastrous.

Player: "They must be stopped!"

That is why I came to the Asmodians.

Davlin's mansion lies deep within Ladis Forest, occupied and twisted by the Balaur.

I sent a soldier named Brenon there, but he reported a strange barrier over the mansion that blocks all attempts to enter or leave.

Can you help us in this time of crisis?

Player: Accept.

Siel be praised for sending you! Please find Brenon in Elementis Forest.

He'll have more up-to-date information for you.

Davlin is not just a great sorcerer, but a beloved member of our tribe. For her sake, for all our sakes, please help her.

Player: "I swear she'll return safe."

Wha...? What's an Asmodian doing all the way out here?

Oh, Sierrac sent you? Thank Aion!

Here's how it stands: Dorgel Manor lies deep within the forest, but there are obstacles.

Player: "What do you mean?"

Davlin created Tuali to guard the forest, but Zadra corrupted it with all the rest.

Now it guards the Magic Stone, the one object that can penetrate the barrier over the mansion.

Zadra is powerful, but not enough to destroy the Magic Stone. That's our chance. Take it back to Sierrac once you get it.

Player: "The task is mine."

What did you think of Ladis Forest? I hope you got a sense of the power and beauty there.

But the Balaur care nothing for the beauty--only the power. And they seem to be exploiting it ruthlessly.

Did you find a way into Dorgel Manor?

Player: "I think so...."

Ah, yes, I think I've heard of the Magic Stone. It's created by the spirits who dwell in Ladis Forest.

This particular one must have been too much for Zadra to handle. It should be powerful enough to break the barrier.

I think Brenon's plan is best: defeat Tuali and bring me the Magic Stone.

Player: "I'll be back triumphant."

A pity you had to destroy Tuali. But hopefully Davlin can restore it once she is safe.

As an elder of the Reian tribe, I have the power to transfer the Magic Stone's unique qualities to you.

Kutura galatha Siel manani.... There! Now you will be able to freely pass into Dorgel Manor.
