守護軍駐守隊長 桑吉兒

Young Sprite Messenger, welcome to the Torrent Research Institute.

I am afraid there is little time for pleasantries, as we are in the midst of a rather serious predicament. Visit the Torrent Research Institute Entrance, Torrent Research Institute - Trail, and Torrent Research Institute -Lower Plains to assess the number of bugs infesting the area.

You must waste no time in eliminating each and every one you encounter.

If they were to penetrate the institute, the resulting damage would be considerable.

The bugs are indeed breeding at an alarming rate. Regrettably, the institute's defenses have already been compromised.

At this rate, the Torrent Research Institute will soon be completely infested with no recourse to be had.

I believe the situation is serious enough that we must consult Sage Babama, Rescue Team Member Shawn, and Research Institute Director Madox.

One of them is bound to find a solution.

Sprite Messenger, I must stay at the institute and maintain what little order remains. We are depending on you to find a solution to this problem!

Nice doin' business with you!

(Without uttering a single word, Saul starts spraying you with repellant.)

Hey! Hold still! Now that you're covered in repellant, you'll need to find and defeat the Wasp Overlord.

That should stop the bugs for good.


Once you're finished, go see Madox.

He mentioned something rather important a few days ago regarding Goblins.

I must warn you, he'll be far too stressed to speak with you until you've gotten rid of the Wasp Overlord

"%n%, it's you! I have a few things here that require your expert attention," Saul says graciously.

"The Torrent Research Institute is experiencing a wasp infestation right outside their facility. If we fail to control this explosive growth in the wasp population, the institute will be overrun!

Good thing you're qualified to prevent any such thing from happening.

Cull the wasp population! And while you're at it, bring back some wings and stingers to supplement our supplies."

"Wow, that's a lot more wasp wings and stingers than I expected! Not only is the institute out of danger, now we don't even have to worry about supply shortages!"

Saul says with a beaming look on his face.

"Thanks so much, %n%!

With sustained shortages of fish and bear claws, this wasp infestation turned out to be a blessing in disguise--but only thanks to you and your heroic efforts to harvest their wings for us."

"%n%! Over here!" Saul calls out, waving you over.

"The number of bugs surrounding the institute is reaching an alarming number and I've been tasked with finding someone to handle the problem."

"For someone with your abilities it shoudn't be too difficult to reduce their numbers."

"I leave it to you then, Sprite Messenger!"

"You needn't be quick, only thorough."

"The Bug problem has been getting so terrible lately, I can't help but think what an infestation would do to all the sensitive equipment...!

"No, no! I refuse to even consider the possibility!"

"I adamantly refuse to let the institute fall to those bugs!"

"Exceptional work! As long as the number of bugs is reduced our built-in defenses should be able to handle them."

"Please accept this reward in return for your efforts."

"The Torrent Research Institute is truly in your debt."

"%n%! Over here!" Saul calls out, waving you over.

"The number of Bug Soldiers has increased at Red Plague Manor to the northeast and I've been tasked with finding someone to handle the problem."

"For someone with your abilities it shoudn't be too difficult to eliminate some of them."

"I leave it to you then, Sprite Messenger!"

"You needn't be quick, only thorough."

"If the Bug Soldiers were to somehow overtake Red Plague Manor, they would certainly head here next!"

"No, no! I refuse to even consider the possibility!"

"I adamantly refuse to let the institute fall to those bugs!"

"Exceptional work! As long as the Bug Soldiers' forces have been weakened, our built-in defenses should be able to handle them."

"Please accept this reward in return for your efforts."

"The Torrent Research Institute is truly in your debt."

"Shawn developed this serum specifically to counteract this god-awful bug plague? I don't know..." Saul eyes the vial of serum suspiciously.

"Me? Infected? Hah, no. Haha. I mean, you never know, right? Maybe. Okay, fine! Yes, I'm infected. Best if nobody else finds out, though..."

"Mhmm, this doesn't even taste so bad... and I'm already starting to feel better! Pretty fast-acting stuff. Make sure to thank Shawn for me, will ya?"
