 * Esha'ntarl: Player name, there is someone I would like you to meet.

Aldo: I have a fair idea of what's going on. It's surprising to find a Zilartian with a level head on her shoulders.

Esha'ntarl: There are four mothercrystal locations: the Crag of Holla, the Crag of Dem, the Crag of Mea, and the ruins of Pso'Xja.

Esha'ntarl: Our investigation into the Emptiness surrounding these locations has produced some unusual readings.

Esha'ntarl: We put together a research team equipped with the latest weapons--weapons designed to combat the Emptiness--and sent them to Pso'Xja.

Esha'ntarl: And you won't guess who they encountered...

Aldo: The ruins of Pso'Xja are under Tenshodo authority. Technically speaking, your researchers were trespassing.

Aldo: Verena had wandered down there like she was being guided by something.

Verena: I found this at the place to where I was drawn.

Aldo: Apparently it belonged to a Galka known as Raogrimm--I'm sure you remember the name.

Aldo: Verena was once the receptacle for the memories of the Shadow Lord. This must be the reason behind her behavior.

Esha'ntarl: Similar readings have been recorded from the Emptiness found below the crags of Holla, Dem, and Mea.

Esha'ntarl: We have marked the points where the fluctuations were the strongest. I would like to entrust the investigation of these areas to you, Player name.

Esha'ntarl: If my intuition on what lies out there is correct, you will make some fascinating discoveries indeed.

Aldo: You're a brave soul, Player name. You'll never catch me in that awful place again. Once is more than enough...

Verena: Please be careful. We'll be praying for your safe return. !Script !Video

 * Esha'ntarl: So these are what were causing such unusual activity within the Emptiness.

Esha'ntarl: I can feel the aura of those who returned to the mothercrystals...

Esha'ntarl: Nag'molada, Eald'narche, and even Archduke Kam'lanaut...

Esha'ntarl: Could it be possible that these entities are attempting to break back into this world?

Esha'ntarl: Will they return as they once were? Or as something more sinister?

Esha'ntarl: Player name. We must put a stop to this.

Esha'ntarl: These reincarnations are beings that have chosen--and have been chosen by--the Emptiness.

Esha'ntarl: I fear their powers will be beyond any race that has walked Vana'diel.

Esha'ntarl: Go. Prepare yourself for battle, then return to me here. Let us raise the curtain on the final conflict.
