The Watch can't protect the citizens because they lack the necessary weapons. I suppose you're geared to the hilt, but you're a Daeva.
I've asked around and heard of something called a Power Shard. It's used to improve weapons.
I’ve heard that all of the famous Daevas in the Abyss use Power Shard.
Look, we're starving refugees. We couldn't get out of sight of Beluslan if it took a Kinah to go around the world.
But Reyrinirerk said that we could make a Power Shard by ourselves if we had the materials.
So we need [%dic:STR_DIC_I_QUEST_2596a]s from the Spirits and Obscuras in Alukina's Palace. With those, we could make our own Power Shards.
There's a problem, though. Humans can't get into Alukina's Palace. A Daeva, on the other hand...
Can you procure [%dic:STR_DIC_I_QUEST_2596a]s for me?
It's not in my nature to beseech, Daeva. Still, your people need your help. Will you give it?
Thank you.
Please kill some [%dic:STR_DIC_M_ElementalWater4D_45_Ae]s, [%dic:STR_DIC_M_ElementalWater3D_44_Ae]s, and [%dic:STR_DIC_M_ShadowstalkerSeaD_44_Ae]s and bring me their [%dic:STR_DIC_I_QUEST_2596a]s. They're swarming all over Alukina's Palace.
They'd tear us apart, of course. You, on the other hand...
Daevas are always like this. Ha! You should be called Divas!
I'm SO sorry for bothering you. You must be busy.
I'll just get back to my starvation.
Not all Daevas are created equal--some choose to serve themselves more than their people. Foolishly, we thought to rely on them.
Now maybe you understand why we Humans have to protect ourselves! Of course, we still need some help getting there.
Creating the Power Shards will be a big step forward. Did you get the Power Shard materials?
To be honest, I wasn't expecting much of you.
We've lived without Power Shards this long....
Even a hoe, if sharpened, can crush the skulls of the undead...but usually at a terrible cost.
I'd like to thank you, [%username]. Now that I have the materials, I can make Power Shards.
As you know, Power Shards disappear once used, so I'd like your continued aid in procuring these materials.
With your help, and our hard work, we'll be self-sufficient in no time.
Collect [%dic:STR_DIC_I_QUEST_2596a]s and take them to [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Benyar].
[%collectitem]Benyar said that he needed materials to make Power Shards for the Watch. Defeat the Seafoam Spirits, Seafoam Spirits, and Undertow Obscuras in Alukina's Palace and collect the Bright Soul Pieces for him.
Benyar said he needed Power Shards to improve the attack power of the Watch so they wouldn't be dependent on unreliable Daevas.
The necessary materials were only obtainable at Alukina's Palace, where only Daevas can go, so he sought your help.
You went to Alukina's Palace, defeated the Seafoam Spirits, Seafoam Spirits, and Undertow Obscuras, and collected the Bright Soul Pieces. Benyar was grateful for your assistance.
