I'm worried. The Shulack technology is more advanced than expected.

Based on the manual, they seem to engrave the Stigma into their bodies using Drana fragments.

It would be nice to have some Drana for Greater Stigma research. I don't want to go to Balaurea though...

Player: (Keep listening.)

I read that only the Shulack scientist knows how to handle Stigmas using Drana fragments.

The description seems to match with the Shulacks in the report written by the Archons who went to Dark Poeta, but we'll need to double-check.

Hresvelgr in Beluslan knows well about that place. That's the person to ask.

Will you help out once again?

Player: Accept

Once again, thank you.

If we can find what we need, it will be of great help to the Asmodians.

So go to Hresvelgr at the Hoarfrost Shelter in Beluslan.

He has the ability to read fortunes through astrology and was the first person to discover Dark Poeta, so he knows more about that place than anyone else.

Player: (End dialog.)

There's no result without reason.

The instability and chaos of time also occurred for a reason.

You stand in front of me now because of the pull of fate. If there is anything you wish to know, ask.

Player: "Vergelmir sent me."

The Shulack scholar in Dark Poeta? That must be Professor Hewahewa you speak of.

That scholar recently found a new way to use Stigmas. Apparently the research report is written on a scroll.

Based on what I hear, there is someone amongst the Shulacks trying to steal the scroll.

I don't know the reason why, but our job is to get to the scroll before they do.

Go to Pandaemonium. I have a feeling Chaokiki is trying to steal the Drana fragments and Hewahewa's scroll...

Player: (End dialog.)

The higher-ups don't seem to have much interest in what I do.

If this research goes well, it will be of great help to the Asmodians...

I'm glad that at least you're helping me, Player.

Oh, what did Hresvelgr say, by the way? Did you hear anything helpful?

Player: "Here."

Oh, it seems like you haven't gotten much information either.

The research would go much smoother if only I had Drana fragments and the scroll written by the Shulack researcher...

And we'd be able use the power of Stigmas for us Asmodians.

A pity.

Player: (End dialog.)

Oh my! Were you really able to get the Drana fragments and Hewahewa's scroll?

I didn't actually think you would!

Wait just a moment. I just need to check what was left out of the manual from last time.

Here it is! This part right here! And I've got Drana fragments too... Now we're ready to get started.

Player, would you be willing to be the subject of my experiment? It would be an honor if you accept.

Of course it will be of great help to you too, Player. You'll get to use one more Stigma.
