L64. Emergency Report for Ando

You pick up a shard of exoskeleton belonging to the creature you'd battled viciously a mere moment ago and are immediately struck by how dense it is compared to that of other bugs you've fought in the past.

It certainly explains why this particular foe had been so difficult to defeat.

Alas, you are unable to come to any further conclusions due to your limited knowledge of bug anatomy. You decide to share this discovery with your allies to better prepare them for future attacks.

Pass the information on to Sprite Messenger Crab Eye, and then report back to Ando at the coast.

"Yes? What is it you want, Sprite Messenger?"

Ando appears less calm than usual. You wonder if perhaps the war in Blue Bay has been met with unexpected trouble.

"Tsk! A bug with extra tough armor, eh?"

At hearing your concerns for your allies' safety, her usual cold demeanor resurfaces. Still, you are able to detect a faint sign of worry in her voice.

"Due to a recent delay in communication, we won't be able to determine straight away if the bug you encountered was a single anomaly or not."

"All the same, I'll advise our comrades nearby to take extra precautions with these creatures. Thank you for bringing this to my attention, Sprite Messenger."
