A few nights ago, a team of civil engineers was kidnapped from here while we slept.
I suspected Lepharists were responsible. Now, it seems that they have also stolen an Artefact from the Outpost Ruins.
That was my thought as well. Obviously, they are forcing the engineers to help construct their base. But perhaps they are using the Artefact for the same purpose....
Whatever their aims, the Lepharists must be stopped. Go to the [%dic:STR_DIC_W_LF2_SZ_J] and rescue the [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Captured_Engineer_cage]s there.
See what you can discover about the Artefact, as well.
We must escape, before the guards can raise the alarm!
At both sides of this Bastion, there are passages that lead to the outside. The Lepharists don't know about them.
The [%dic:STR_DIC_E_sensory_1041a] is near the center. It's a small cave on the western cliff. Alternatively we could escape through the [%dic:STR_DIC_E_sensory_1041b] in the northernmost part of the base.
Choose quickly!
Did you rescue the [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Captured_Engineer_cage]s? And what of the Artefact?
Tell me what you saw.
If they are using it to construct their Bastion, the Artefact must have immense power indeed.
No doubt that power could be turned to destruction as well....
We cannot allow them to keep that base.
We'll need help from Sanctum if we want to prevent the construction of the camp.
I'm sending you to [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Xenophon] in Sanctum. Please report there.
Go to the [%dic:STR_DIC_FLA38], straight to [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Xenophon].
Report and ask how to proceed in these circumstances.
What brings you here, friend?
A powerful Artefact like that could have any number of uses. All of them bad, in the wrong hands.
It would be safer to destroy it.
Artefacts cannot be destroyed with ordinary weapons. Aetheric explosives should do the job nicely, though.
Go to the Abyss and meet [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Juditio]. As our resident demolition expert in the Abyss, he should have the [%dic:STR_DIC_I_QUEST_1041a]s you need.
I can tell you want something from me. You have that look on your face.
You want to destroy an Artefact? Oh, but that's bold!
I would gladly give you the [%dic:STR_DIC_I_QUEST_1041a] for the greater good of Sanctum.
And for my own personal satisfaction--think of the destruction you'll cause....
This Aether Explosive can destroy the [%dic:STR_DIC_E_Artifact].
Attach the Aether Explosive to the target object and detonate it.
It has long-range explosive power. Light the fuse and be gone as quickly as possible.
Here, take this. I hope it will be of great help to you.
I'm sending you to the [%dic:STR_DIC_W_LF2_SZ_OP] right away.
What does Xenophon advise?
The obvious solution. And he even provided you with the means to do so.
You will need some help to plant the explosives, though. Go to the Kuriullu Outpost and meet with [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Laigas].
He knows much about the Lepharist Bastion. He should help you get those explosives to where they can do the most damage.
What brings you here?
Destroying the [%dic:STR_DIC_E_Artifact]...hmmm....
Ah, I know!
Aion's blessing be upon your mission, [%username].
I hope you will return safely and successfully.
I saw the explosion! Nothing could have survived that!
Now...watch this!
Already the Lepharist Bastion crumbles. They shall be a threat no longer.
Brigade General [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Telemachus] is no doubt eager to hear of your success.
I thought I heard thunder in the distance, as if from a great explosion.
I take it that was you?
The Lepharists should no longer be a serious threat, then.
I shall report this incident to Sanctum, and send more patrols to mop up the survivors.
Your valour is appreciated, Daeva.
Talk with [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Telemachus].
Go to [%dic:STR_DIC_W_LF2_SZ_J] and find the [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Captured_Engineer_cage].
Escort the [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Captured_Engineer_cage] to either the [%dic:STR_DIC_E_sensory_1041a] or the [%dic:STR_DIC_E_sensory_1041b].
Report to [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Telemachus].
Talk with [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Xenophon].
Talk with [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Juditio].
Report to [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Telemachus].
Talk with [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Laigas].
Blast the [%dic:STR_DIC_E_Artifact] with the [%dic:STR_DIC_I_QUEST_1041a].
Talk with [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Laigas].
Report to [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Telemachus].
Find out how the Lepharist Revolutionaries are using the Artefact. Meet Telemachus to receive your mission.
You heard that the Lepharist Revolutionaries kidnapped a Civil Engineer. You rescued him and saw the situation in the Lepharist Bastion. The Fortress Commander ordered you to meet Xenophon, a military expert in Sanctum, and ask for help in stopping the Lepharists from using the Artefact.
Xenophon ordered you to blow up the Artefact with the help of Yuditio, an explosive expert in the Abyss. You successfully blew up the Artefact, and reported the result to the Fortress Commander.
