I'm a soldier, not a scholar. So you can imagine my disappointment when Grunn assigned me to help Midori investigate his theory on the strange stones sprouting up all around the Ruins of Roah.
He's got us out here conducting a few tests.
Grunn suspects the wardstones are connected to the fragmentation of Aion. And their unusual natures might support that.
Midori discovered the [%dic:STR_DIC_I_QUEST_2774a] inside the first wardstone we investigated. While we were both thrilled at the discovery, the wardstone injured her.
Those things are scrappy little fighters for a pillar of stone! We need more crystals from the [%dic:STR_DIC_M_Ab1_1211_SAM_30_An]s, but I'm assigned to watch over and protect Midori, and she won't go near another one.
You look to be more soldier than scholar, which is just what I need.
It's possible the Wardstone started to move in order to protect its crystal, rather than the crystal naturally growing inside the Wardstone.
Imagine a rock, a lifeless thing animated by the crystal inside and driven to protect itself. If we could harness that, think of the applications for our military stations and fortresses!
It's imperative we get more [%dic:STR_DIC_I_QUEST_2774a]s to study. These [%dic:STR_DIC_M_Ab1_1211_SAM_30_An] are scattered all over the Floating Island near the Ruins of Roah.
You're afraid of a rock? Midori I can understand, but not a [%userclass].
What kind of Daeva are they sending out here anymore?
Wait a minute, you're the Daeva I asked to check out the stones!
Great! The sooner I can get this little research project done, the sooner Grunn will send me back to combat.
Did you bring the crystals I asked for?
We need several crystals. Each of the tests destroys the sample. I'm sorry if I wasn't clearer about that.
Find some more [%dic:STR_DIC_M_Ab1_1211_SAM_30_An]s, and bring [%dic:STR_DIC_I_QUEST_2774a]s to me.
Excellent. With this many samples, the tests should take no time at all.
I hope you didn't find the wardstones to be too disturbing. I mean...living, breathing, fighting rock!
Anyway, Midori and I should get to work on this.
Destroy [%dic:STR_DIC_M_Ab1_1211_SAM_30_An]s, collect their crystals, and take them to [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Greip].
[%collectitem]Greip needs Crystal Wardstones from the Ancient Guardstones in order to conduct tests that Grunn requested.
Greip needed to conduct some tests on the crystals contained within the Ancient Guardstones near the Ruins of Roah.
She asked you to procure materials for the tests. You destroyed the Ancient Guardstones, collected the Crystal Wardstones, and gave them to Greip.
