Where have you been? Did you hear the awful news? Siel's Western Fortress has been captured!
While we fought against those fiendish Asmodians, the Balaur invaded and slaughtered us both!
Aye, it was a dreadful slaughter. They slew our Guardian General, and we withdrew in shame.
Better to live to retake the fortress than die in futile battle.
Our latest reports show that the Asmodians may have taken the fortress back from the Balaur.
Whoever has it is irrelevant. It should be ours. Will you help us retake Siel's Western Fortress?
The plan is thus: eliminate the [%dic:STR_DIC_title_1746] of fighters and archers, and bring [%dic:STR_DIC_I_QUEST_1746a]s to me.
Hair-backed Asmodians or carrion-breathed Balaur, it makes no difference--both must be destroyed.
It goes without saying that you must gather a strong force to take with you, [%username].
You were not there at the battle, so perhaps you do not feel the sting of our loss.
But does not Elyos blood run hot in your veins? Do you not long for righteous vengeance?
I heard reports of battle at the Western Fortress.
Did you defeat [%dic:STR_DIC_title_1746]?
Did you bring back their marks?
You have not nearly enough marks! Were you truly worthy of ascension?
We must recapture the fortress as soon as possible!
Slaughter the defenders, and bring their [%dic:STR_DIC_I_QUEST_1746a]s to me!
You return in glory! The fortress will be ours again soon, I can feel it.
And you've proven your worth. There is another mission I would ask of you....
Get rid of the [%dic:STR_DIC_title_1746], gather marks, and take them to [%dic:STR_DIC_N_Damathus].
[%collectitem]Weaken the defense force in the Siel's Western Fortress. Bring a group to kill fighters and archers, and collect Sentinel's Marks.
Damathus told you that they lost Siel's Western Fortress, and he asked you to weaken the enemy's defenses.
You got rid of the garrison in the Siel's Western Fortress and brought Damathus the Sentinel's Marks.
