"%c%, the Guard's sentries reported that something moved in the desert to the east last night."

"Why did that strange mist suddenly fill the valleys outside Celestia? It's all so bizarre."

"The mist is not a big problem, but those giant, vicious monsters certainly are."

"Say, why don't you investigate in the east? I'll stay here and, um, strategize," Zala said with a smirk.

"What's going on in the desert to the east? And what's happening with all the mist in those valleys?" Zala asked impatiently.

"That strange mist... I have to think that it's hiding something sinister."

"I wonder if it has anything to do with the strange obstacles the Praetorian Guard keeps running into."

"Whatever happens, we must continue our pursuit of evil Ardenis. Justice must prevail!"

You told him about the old man and the situation you encountered.

"What... Gold!? Well, that sounds interesting." Zala's eyes lit up. You could practically see dollar signs spinning in his brain.

"You did a great job. Let's just keep this between us for now, okay?"

"Apparently, those odd creatures in the desert aren't as simple as they look."
