Lion Tribe Elders Dauson

"Young %c%, don't wander near Saya Stone Engravings in the southeast."

"Dark creatures lurk there, waiting to strike."

"Foreigners cannot understand our problems in this land."

Dauson grasped the Magic Figure Potion and took a sip.

"Lately, I feel the dark power of Saya Stone Engravings spreading. This potion gives us control over the situation again!"

"I hear you're helping Hwasha collect ingredients. Please be careful."

"We're lucky to have your assistance."

"You're willing to help Hwasha, so you must be a good-hearted warrior."

"Many Scorpion Eggs suddenly appeared at Saya Stone Engravings, and their secretions are slowly eroding the ancient inscriptions."

"That place is a sacred symbol of our ancestry. We cannot allow those eggs to damage it! Please help us destroy the Scorpion Eggs around the stone inscriptions."

"Dark forces must have penetrated Saya Stone Engravings, or those foul creatures would never have dared come near it."

"Until I can get to the bottom of this, please clear out the eggs and cocoons," Dauson instructed.

You told Dauson that you eliminated all the cocoons.

"I knew you could do it! Thank you for getting it done so quickly, too."

"The ancestors' whispers on the wind told me that the scorpion queen, Qestrelle, is behind the destruction of Saya Stone Engravings."

"She sleeps in the crevasses between the stones. It's abnormal for her to be awake now, actually. I fear something terrible could happen soon."

"The Scorpion queen lives in the caves near Saya Stone Engravings. Please take this Magic Figure Potion, and use it at the cave entrance."

"Kill her when she shows up!"

"Nobody's ever fought the scorpion queen before, so we have no idea how strong or clever she is. Be very, very careful!"

"You can use this Magic Figure Potion at the cave entrance near Saya Stone Engravings to drive her out."

"Please let me know what happens."

You recounted the scorpion queen's demise to Dauson.

"You've protected the Saya Stone Engravings! Thank you, %c%."

"That ancient Magic Figure Potion worked wonders against the scorpion queen."

"Chief of Huyi Village Kumahachi wants to use outside mechanical technology to improve living conditions in the village. However, we should not allow the survey team to study Saya Stone Engravings in exchange for technological innovations."

"I believe the scorpion queen awoke because of the researchers' work on the stones. Tell Kumahachi that the scorpion queen is dead, and perhaps he will understand the impact of his choices."

"I've been studying an ancient rune, and I'm close to a breakthrough."

"To make this rune, I must grind yak horns into powder. Unfortunately, yaks are vicious and strong. They tend to bite, too. I'm a scientist, not a fighter!"

"Can you get me a bunch of yak horns?"

"Please help me if you have time! I can only use yak horns from Lost Highlands."

"I'm old; I donn't have much time left in this world."

"This rune research will be my last hurrah. I must finish it."

"I just need those blasted yak horns to complete the rune."

"Thank you! Here, take your reward." As Dauson examined the yak horns, his grin fell.

"I can only make two test runes with these horns..."

"Naturally, I need more yak horns. Please bring me more!"

"Wind spirits on Mount Daigo attacked villagers as well as small animals in the mountains."

"Many creatures cannot survive in Lost Highlands. I fear that with these spirits on the loose, more animals will go extinct, and the entire ecosystem will be thrown off!"

"The village dispatched a team to eliminate the wind spirits."

"If you're interested, slaughter the spirits and bring us their feathers to prove your work. You'll be rewarded accordingly."

"Mount Daigo is southwest of Highland. Wind spirits haunt the entire area."

"We need more people to help fight them off, so I hope you can help!"

You gave the feathers to Dauson.

"I thank you on behalf of the village."

"The hunt for wind spirits continues. As long as you keep bringing me their feathers, I shall reward you." Dauson smiled warmly, hope shining in his milky eyes.

"To resolve Phoenix Tower's problem, you need three treasures, including the Energy Transformation Bottle."

"Centuries ago, Blue Scorpion, Queen of the Pirates, led an army to invade Lost Highlands."

"When the Blue Scorpion Pirates penetrated the Phoenix Tower, an energy explosion erupted inside, causing an earthquake that buried the tower in dirt and ash."

"Dipo, the Megalith General, Blue Scorpion's second in command, had the Energy Transformation Bottle, but it's since been buried in the tower."

"You must enter Phoenix Tower, eradicate the monsters, and recover the Energy Transformation Bottle."

"The only way to resolve the energy outburst of the Phoenix Tower is to obtain a treasure called the 'Tower Seal.'"

"Only by handing the Tower Seal to the Guardian Spirit of Phoenix Tower can the Guardian Spirit fully control the Phoenix Tower and suppress its energy."

"My distant ancestor, the Guardian Priest Kushan, was the priest of the Phoenix Tower, and the Tower Seal was in his possession."

"Although my ancestor was also trapped in the Phoenix Tower back then, through the bond of our bloodline, I can sense that he has not completely perished and has been transformed into a ghostly creature by the negative energy of the Phoenix Tower."

"Please enter the Phoenix Tower, find the Tower Seal, and give it to the Guardian Spirit of Phoenix Tower. At the same time, I also ask you to eliminate the corrupted Phoenix Tower Priests, so their souls may rest in peace."

"Phoenix Tower was originally used to guard Lost Highlands as well as the ancient Phoenix Clan."

"The Phoenix Tower Guardian Spirit will only accept orders from the Phoenix Clan, but the clansmen have died out, so we must acquire the Phoenix Emblem so that the Guardian Spirit will listen to our pleas."

"The Phoenix Emblem will transform dead Phoenix Clan warriors into Divine Spirits. I think a Phoenix Divine Spirit in the tower must have that emblem."

"Unfortunately, I'd bet that the Phoenix Divine Spirits have been demonized. Be careful."

"Legend has it that the prince of the Phoenix Tower and the pirate queen Blue Scorpion were once lovers. Something happened on the day of the wedding, though, and that's the day Phoenix Tower exploded."

"No one knows if that's actually true. Wouldn't you have loved to attend that wedding? I bet they would have done the Chicken Dance. According to another legend, pirates love the Chicken Dance."

You told Dosan about what happened in Phoenix Tower.

"Seems like Lost Highlands narrowly avoided a disaster," Dosan said with a sage nod.

"On behalf of everyone in Lost Highlands, thank you."

"Who would have thought that the prince of the Phoenix Tower would fuse himself with the Guardian Spirit and become trapped in the Phoenix Tower for a few hundred years?"

"Hey, did you ask him what happened between him and Blue Scorpion?" Doson asked eagerly.

"Stranger, what's your business here?" asked Doshen, peering at you.

"You've got the aura of a Sprite. Sage Babama didn't send you here, did he?"

"The crisis that faces the Lost Highlands is no small matter."

"My friend, thanks for traveling a great distance to come to our aid, but I'm afraid there's no time to rest."

"The Phoenix Tower has been quiet for centuries, but lately, strong energy emanates from it. If this keeps up, it could spell disaster for Lost Highlands."

"We need someone to enter the Phoenix Tower and help the Guardian Spirit of Phoenix Tower control the rogue energy."
