Castle That Soars Up in the Sky

Investigate the Sky Tower

Level	47
Quest Giver	Seria Kirmin
Briefing	Seria: "<Player>, thank you. I feel better now." <Player>: "Seria, do you know about the Sky Tower?" Seria: "The Sky Tower? I haven't heard that name for a while. It once belonged to Dragon King Bakal, and after his death, his creations remained in the tower, blocking the passage to Empyrean. That was before the Great Metastasis. The tower collapsed by the impact of the Great Metastasis, along with Bakal's pentacle that barricaded the gate to Empyrean. If you want more clues about the Sky Tower, then you need to find objects sustained with the power of Bakal. They will give you an idea about the power of his creations."

Upon Completion	Seria: "Oh, this belongs to one of Bakal's creations. Where did you find this object? You never fail to amaze me, <Player>. Please give me a moment. Let me combine all its energy into one... ...*Pant Pant* It's done. This is Bakal's energy I extracted from the object. It should be identical to that found in the creatures of the Sky Tower. I hope it'll be useful."

Energy of the Sky Tower

Level	47
Quest Giver	Seria Kirmin
Briefing	Seria: "Sir Bakal is a knight also known as the Light Castellan. He's one of the creatures in the Sky Tower that Bakal created.

Objectives	Deliver Seria's Sky Crystalline to Michelle. Sky Crystalline: 1/1
Upon Completion	Michelle: "Oh, that's the energy of the Sky Tower!"
Rewards	4,351 Exp 302 Gold

Nightmare of the Viper

Level	47
Quest Giver	Michelle Monohan
Briefing	Michelle: "Ah, so Bakal's creations are in there. Why did Bakal have his soldiers in there? What did he get from blocking exchanges between Empyrean and Arad? I want to know his intention, but that's not what matters the most right now. With this, we can find the Foundation of the Nightmare. I't been able to hide in the midst of the energy energy in the Sky Tower, but now that we can recognize the mana of the Sky Tower, it's only a matter of time before we pick out the Foundation of Nightmare. Now, please get ready and see me in the dream."

Dungeon Dialogue	*Upon encountering the Foundation of the Nightmare* Foundation of the Nightmare: "*Screech* It's you again!" Michelle: "You came!" *The Foundation of the Nightmare leaves* "Let's catch the Foundation of the Nightmare before it moves into another nightmare." *Upon defeating the Foundation of the Nightmare* Foundation of the Nightmare: "Struggle all you want. You'll drown in the nightmares just the same. Kya hah hah!"
Upon Completion	Michelle: "We're able to repel the Foundation of the Nightmare again this time. But where are Aganzo and Bwanga? I'm worried sick for their safety."
Rewards	174,040 Exp 9,072 Gold
Notes	The dungeon is shortened. Caution: Rooms are filled with invincible invisible vipers which inflict heavy bleed damage to targets hit. Vipers slowly advance toward you in columns. Michelle will reveal nearby enemy vipers. Defeat the Foundation Seed in each room to quickly eliminate the other enemies, including the vipers. Michelle's aura circle grants buffs to allies. Michelle's Lasher skill grants either stealth and/or bonus casting/attack/movement speed. Although, Michelle is technically your ally, she can be hit by your attacks and skills. Plan your attacks and skills accordingly.

Bantu Shaman Mintai

Level	47
Quest Giver	Michelle Monohan
Briefing	Michelle: "This is not working. We should consult Mintai. The Bantu shaman might know something we don't know."
Objectives	Listen to Mintai's advice on the situation.
Upon Completion	Mintai: "Hello, Dungeon Fighter. May God Kunilai bless you. You came at the right time. I wanted to tell you about a dream I had." Michelle: "A precognitive dream, I assume. What did you see?" Mintai: "It was too foggy to see things clearly, but I heard some sounds. It was a sad song. I was brought to tears, listening to it." Michelle: "A song. Do you think it's a prophecy? I don't think it's a good one, considering the sad tone."
