Ugh, it's so hot... How can a continent that spent the last thousand years underwater be this hot? It's not natural.
Actually, it really isn't natural--I've been investigating this very thing, since the heat just seemed to be getting worse... You know what it is? It's the [%dic:STR_DIC_M_LF5_FOBJ_Blazed_Thorn_Q15102a]s. They give off such excessive heat that the area around them is completely barren... Honestly, they're part of the reason this desert is expanding.
Can you bring me a sample? I just need a fragment from one of them. Be careful getting close to it, though.
According to my calculations, the Wailing Dunes have doubled in size since Cygnea first emerged from the ocean...
If the Coruscating Thorns keep spreading their heat, the entire continent will be a desert within a few years.
Ah-ha, so this is it! Whew, the heat radiating off this small shard makes me glad I wasn't near the whole thing... Thank you, [%username]!
Hmm, this doesn't look like a normal plant... I don't think this is something natural. How strange! I'll have to study this more.
Hmmm. If you could just destroy any of the [%dic:STR_DIC_M_LF5_FOBJ_Blazed_Thorn_Q15102a]s you come across and bring me their [%dic:STR_DIC_I_quest_15102a]s, that would be great.
It's not much, but if more than one person does it, we should at least make a dent.

Thank you, [%username]. If we all work together on this, we might be able to stop these things from spreading too far.
It will take some constant vigilance, though....
Find a [%dic:STR_DIC_I_quest_15102a] in the [%dic:STR_DIC_W_LF5_SZ_J_01] and bring it to [%dic:STR_DIC_N_LF5_Eremia_E].
[%collectitem]Talk with [%dic:STR_DIC_N_LF5_Eremia_E].
Obtain a Coruscating Thorn Fragment.
Geologist Eremia said the Coruscating Thorns are causing the Wailing Dunes to expand.
When you returned with a Coruscating Thorn Fragment for her to study, Eremia thanked you for your effort and gave you a reward.
