Humans lived on their own long before Daevas came along. We were much weaker than Balaur, but we held our own.

Things are different now. We've forgotten how to fight for ourselves.

I kept insisting that we shouldn't rely solely on Daevas, but no one listened. Now we're homeless, freezing, and afraid.

"I admire your spirit."

The Watch is getting stronger, but we need better armour. A Daeva doesn't really die, but we do!

Better protection for our warriors would make a stronger community for us all.

So I’m planning to craft armour from solid, rugged materials for our Watch members.

"A fine plan."

Hard carapace would be a good armour material... The problem is Alukina's Palace is the only place I know to get it.

Or, rather, for you to get it. Humans can't go there.

Would you help me collect [%dic:STR_DIC_I_QUEST_2597a]s so that I can craft new armour for the Watch?

Accept. Decline.

I really appreciate this. I'm going to need the [%dic:STR_DIC_I_QUEST_2597a]s of [%dic:STR_DIC_M_PotcrabD_44_Ae]s and [%dic:STR_DIC_M_LobniteWaterPlantD_44_Ae]s for the armour.

You know if I could get inside the palace myself, I would.

Once I have good armour, I won't need to beg favours from passing Daevas.

"Happy to help."

I’d heard you’re different from the rest, [%username]...it must have been a baseless rumour.

Apparently you're no different from the other selfish Daevas.

You can leave now. We'll work it out by ourselves...somehow.

"I'm sure you will."

Once we're equipped with strong armour, the Watch will have little to fear.

Hopefully, other Humans will look to our example, and strengthen themselves and organize for their own defence.

Speaking of armour, Did you get the [%dic:STR_DIC_I_QUEST_2597a]s I asked for?

"As requested."

Did you forget about the [%dic:STR_DIC_I_QUEST_2597a]s or what?

Perhaps I should never have asked for Daevic help. I'd be better off with the Shugos.

If you won't help me, just be honest. I won't hold you in any more contempt...than I do already.

"Fear not, I'll help."

Now I can create a strong piece of armour using these Hard Carapaces.

It was right to come to you for help, [%username].

Thank you kindly.

Collect the carapaces of [%dic:STR_DIC_M_PotcrabD_44_Ae]s and [%dic:STR_DIC_M_LobniteWaterPlantD_44_Ae]s and take them to [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Benyar].

[%collectitem]

Benyar argues that Humans need stronger armour to protect themselves. Go to Alukina's Palace and hunt the Sea Potcrabs and Deep Sea Lobnites to collect their hard carapaces to make the armour.

Benyar said that strong armour was needed for the townsfolk to be able to protect themselves.

Benyar thanked you profusely after you obtained the Hard Carapaces from Sea Potcrabs and Deep Sea Lobnites near Alukina's Palace.
