Quests

Grandis's Call

Level	40
Quest Giver	Grandis Gracia
Briefing	If player isn't a priest Grandis: "Excuse me. My name is Grandis Gracia from the Order of Priests. I'm here to ask you for your help. Can I have a moment of your time? Thank you. There's something we'd like to take care of discreetly. Do you know the Bantus that live in Mount Thunderime? Their chief is Bwanga, one of the Four Blade Masters. They're a reclusive and warlike people, and often clash with the Principality over the border issue. One of our members went to meet their shaman and hasn't returned. I went to them and asked for his whereabouts. They said the last time they saw him, he headed for Mount Thunderime. The Stru Mountains are where the dreadful ice dragon, Skasa, is sleeping, and they're fraught with monsters born from his magic. I need help from an experienced adventurer like you to save the priest stranded in such a dangerous place. Thank you. The Bantus promised their cooperation with this search. Please go to Storm Pass, where they live, and talk to them. But please be careful. The Bantus don't trust strangers easily." If player is a priest Grandis: "Excuse me. My name is Grandis Gracia, and I'm a member of the Hendon Myre Cathedral. I'm here to ask you for your help on behalf of our order. Can I have a moment of your time? Thank you.

I went to them and asked for his whereabouts. They said the last time they saw him, he headed for Mount Thunderime. The Stru Mountains are where the dreadful ice dragon, Skasa, is sleeping, and they're fraught with monsters born from his magic. I heard you're a veteran adventurer. Could you help us save our stranded brother? Thank you. The Bantus promised their cooperation with this search. Please go to Storm Pass, where they live, and talk to them. But please be careful.

The Bantus of Mount Thunderime

Level	40
Quest Giver	Mintai
Briefing	Mintai: "Ah, you must be the adventurer who's come to find the missing Priest. Thank the gods, you're not from the Principality. Please come this way.

Upon Completion	Valena: "Did you come to save that clueless Priest? You must be really cold. If he was from the Principality, I wouldn't care if he got lost and died in Mount Thunderime, but he's from the Priest Order. Also, we don't want outsiders' corpses to litter our mountain. How does he look? You'll know if you see him. He stands out, just like you."

Bantu Woman Valena

Level	40
Quest Giver	Valena
Dungeon	Ridge
Briefing	Valena: "Where did he go? It's funny because he disappeared on his way to meet Chief Bwanga, who was training in the mountain. None of my people who were on the mountain saw him. I think he got lost midway. I hope he's not dead."

Upon Completion	Valena: "You must be strong, coming back here in one piece. That Priest isn't."

Warrior's Token

Level	40
Quest Giver	Mintai
Dungeon	Ridge
Briefing	Mintai: "This is bad. Some people think that the Stranger should not be allowed to climb the mountain. I tried to explain, but they would have none of it. In fact, they want him out of the village." Valena: "They know this was the Chief's decision, but they still make a fuss about it because he's not here. Tsk, tsk. Defiance seems to be getting more popular these days. I wonder if this has to do with Skasa... Mm? What does Skasa have to do with it? Mm, never mind. By the way, you look like you're an able warrior. Why don't you go up the mountain and fight some Bantus that challenge you? We like brave warriors. Prove your strength, and maybe that'll shut up those unhappy ones. Oh right, our warriors carry sharp wolf fangs. They're tokens of their pride as warriors, and they're given to those whom they acknowledge as worthy opponents. Get some of them, and that'll surely impress the others."
Objectives	Collect 30 Sharp Wolf Fangs from the Ridge.  Sharp Wolf Fang (30)
Upon Completion	Valena: "Good. You would have no problem surviving here. By the way, haven't you found the Priest yet? I hope he's not buried in snow."

Mintai's Older Brother Ravinhur

Level	40
Quest Giver	Mintai
Dungeon	Ridge
Briefing	Mintai: "Stranger, have you found the person you're looking for? Then why don't you ask my brother? He's looking for him as well, under the orders of the Vice Chief. My brother? His name is Ravinhur."
Objectives	Find Ravinhur in the Ridge and ask about the missing priest.
Dungeon Dialogue	Upon entering Room B3: Toros Bashuturk: "Who's that?" Kunic Emrei: "An outsider. What is he doing here? Is he a spy from the Principality?" Toros Bashuturk: "All right, whoever beats him first wins!" Kunic Emrei: "You just watch. I'll take him down in the blink of an eye!" Upon defeating Toros Bashuturk and Kunic Emrei: Toros Bashuturk: "Kurgghh..." Kunic Emrei: "Darn it, if only that stupid Toros didn't butt in... What? You came to ask Ravinhur about a missing person. Hah hah! But Ravinhur fell off that cliff a long time ago." Avalanche Ravinhur: "Who said I fell off?" Toros Bashuturk: "Didn't you?" Avalanche Ravinhur: "What fell off was just a snowball. Your eyes must have gone bad. You're the outsider looking for that man. Did I find him? Of course. Follow me." Upon entering the Boss Room: Avalanche Ravinhur: "This fool shouldn't have come to Mount Thunderime. He's not strong enough to survive. I don't know how he thought he could reach the top. But you looked strong. I did your job for you. In exchange, I want to have a match with you. I've always wanted to fight a strong outsider!"
Upon Completion	Avalanche Ravinhur: "Excellent. Now I know why our warriors struggled against you. Take him. I left him alone because I didn't want to make an enemy of his order. He'd better not come back and burden others again." Orland: "Aww... C-cold..."

What Mount Thunderime Is Hiding

Level	40
Quest Giver	Valena
Briefing	Valena: "You're back. Aww, you're completely frozen. Tsk, tsk. I told you not to act recklessly, but you didn't listen." Orland: "To-to-to confirm th-th-the power of God--ahchoo!" Valena: "Hush. Come over here and have this warm porridge. You're lucky to be alive. Ah. You should come over here and warm yourself by the fire, too."
Objectives	Meet Valena in Storm Pass. Meet Valena: 0/1
Upon Completion	Valena: "Good job. Your order made a smart decision, sensing someone strong this time to pick up the other member. Ah, you're an adventurer. You must have learned fighting in the field, unlike this Priest who is not as skilled as he looks." Orland: "I've sensed an evil energy in the mountain. What are you hiding?" Valena: "An evil energy? What are you talking about?" Orland: "Adventurer, haven't you felt it? As soon as I set foot in Mount Thunderime, I had a sense of foreboding. I'm afraid a demon is in its midst..." Valena: "*Snort* Yes, it is, and it's called Ice Dragon Skasa. Didn't you know?" Orland: "But I've heard it's sleeping. Its energy can't be this powerfu--" Valena: "Forget it. I don't have to explain our situation to outsiders. If you're done eating, go to the Vice Chief. You're alive because of him. Adventurer, please take him with you."
Rewards	2,268 Gold
Notes	If player is a priest Orland refers to the player as "Brother" instead of "Adventuerer."

Outsider, we allowed you into our territory because we respect your order, but we will reconsider our relationship with it if you refuse to cooperate with us." Orland: "I'm sorry I troubled you, but what are you hiding in this mountain? Don't say this evil energy I'm sensing is from the slumbering Ice Dragon!" Orca: "..."
Rewards	28,394 Exp 2,268 Gold
Notes	The title and briefing for this quest are glitched in game. Hope they fix it.

The Bantus' Stand

Level	40
Quest Giver	Orca
Briefing	Orca: "Okay, I'll tell you. I've got no reason to hide it, anyway. Mount Thunderime is surrounded by an ominous energy. My warriors are guarding the mountain. We've left the Stru Mountains and come near the border we share with the Principality. This is all because Skasa has awakened." Orland: "What? Oh, no. The Principality is on alert because it thinks you're gearing up to invade it. Why don't you explain the situation and ask for help?" Orca: "The Principality of Bel Myre is wary of us. I know. It's threatened us not to get any closer. I don't think it'll help us. It's either we are devoured by Skasa or we die fighting the Principality. Go. Go alert the Order of the Principality. Do whatever you want. We're not going back. Skasa is more violent than ever since he woke up. I'm not going to lose more of my men to that dragon."
Objectives	Deliver Orca's message to Grandis. Meet Grandis: 0/1
Upon Completion	Grandis: "You came back safely! Welcome back. You're not hurt, are you? Orland: "No, thanks to this adventurer here. By the way, I've got bad news: Ice Dragon Skasa has awakened." Grandis: "Oh, no. That explains why the Bantus came all the way to our border. I'd better let others know." Orland: "Skasa is terrorizing the Bantus. Can't your order help them?" Grandis: "Unfortunately, our biggest supporter is the Principality. We cannot aid its enemies unless they seek religous advice or need relief from natural disasters. We will pray that the Ice Dragon will fall back asleep, so they can go back home one day."
Rewards	28,394 Exp 2,268 Gold

A Cold Prophecy

Level	40
Quest Giver	Iris
Briefing	Iris: "Oh, Adventurer. Long time, no see. How are you? I've prayed for your safety during your journey. It seems my prayers have been answered. Hush. Don't say anything. I can see the residual cold energy on your shoulders and the ominousness and fear mixed with it. I think I know what you've seen. I can't talk too long in this place. Please follow me."
Objectives	Meet and talk to Iris. Meet Iris: 0/1
Upon Completion	Iris: "I see. That small tribe dared put your strength to the test, but it eventually opened it up to you, and now you're worried about its safety. Ice Dragon Skasa is as dangerous as you think. One of the dragons created by Apostle Bakal, Skasa is believed to be as powerful as Death Dragon Spirazzi that terrorized the dark elves. I saw the Bantus' destiny. It's not good. By getting involved with it, you could get yourself into big trouble. You stopped the war between the dark elves and the principality and helped them reconcile with each other. It's not good for an adventurer to intervene with national affairs. And you're not an ordinary adventurer. You're part of the grand scheme of the universe. I suggest you ignore this matter and set off on a new adventure. I know it's hard to understand, but soon you'll realize this is for your own good."
Rewards	28,394 Exp 2,268 Gold

A Suspicious Request

Level	40
Quest Giver	Bucken
Briefing	Bucken: "Adventurer, my name is Bucken. I'm sorry I waylaid you, but can I have a moment of your time? I've heard you came back from Mount Thunderime, where the Bantus live. Then do you know why they left the mountain? Oh, I'm not a suspicious person. I'm not allowed to tell you everything about myself, but I promise you that I mean you no harm. In fact, I'd like to hire you, to help the Bantus. If they keep crossing the Principality border, the government will have no choice but to resort to force. The Bantus may be small in number, but every one of them is a brave warrior. Both parties have a lot to lose if it comes to a war. Why doesn't the Principality help the Bantus? Simple. They've been causing us trouble for so long that our people harbor strong animosity toward them. Our people would apporve of their government sending an army to help the enemy. It's a different story if they ask for help first. But they're such a proud, stubborn people that I doubt that'll happen. That's why I'd like to hire you. I know this is not an easy decision to make. Please take your time to think about it and let me know what you decide."
Objectives	Go to Bucken in front of the Hendon Myre City Hall and tell him that you want to help the Bantu. Meet Bucken: 0/1
Upon Completion	Bucken: "Thank you. Please help the Bantus return to their homeland. It'll benefit both the Principality and them."
Rewards	28,394 Exp 2,268 Gold

A Relaxed Bantu

Level	40
Quest Giver	Mintai
Briefing	Mintai: "Oh, Stranger. I thought you went back to the Principality. Did you come back? Most people who are not Bantus can barely withstand this cold. You really must like Mount Thunderime. The Vice Chief? He went up the mountain and isn't here. Why? Hm. Are you saying you want to help us? You're the first stranger to offer help to us. Mrs. Valena is busy at the moment. I'll introduce you to Rino. Please follow me.
Objectives	Meet Rino in Storm Pass. Meet Rino: 0/1
Upon Completion	Rino: "Hah hah. Are you the outsider that beat Ravinhur? *Gulp Gulp* Ah! So you're pretty strong huh?" Mintai: "My brother's strong too!" Rino: "Oops. Sure, of course. Well, don't just stand there and come in. Care for some kumis?"

Rino's Request

Level	40
Quest Giver	Rino
Dungeon	Mountain Thunderime Forest
Briefing	Rino: "The Vice Chief went to the mountain to do something in the Chief's behalf. I don't know when he'll be back. ... Adventurer, you said you wanted to help. Then do me a favor. There's a narrow trail along the ridge of the mountain, where you explored before, and we've lost some things along the trail. We looked, but there's one thing we haven't found. Since you're an adventurer, perhaps you're better at finding things than we are. Could you go look for a necklace?"

Quest Giver	Rino
Dungeon	Mountain Thunderime Forest
Briefing	Rino: "Let's see... Ah, you've found almost all the pieces. Thank you. If I find the one last letter, then I can show this to Valena. ...Oh, this necklace belonged to Valena's brother, Charlie. He went missing when he was young. He was never found. He loved toys... then he disappeared one day. The shamans who read his fortune said that he was destined to have his heart destroyed forever by Skasa's magic. *Gulp Gulp* *Burp* Ah, I'm drunk. *Sigh* Why do you think we came this far? Skasa terrorized us even in his sleep. Even little children like Charlie weren't safe from his evil magic. Adventurer, help me one more time. I want ot complete this necklace and give it to Valena. Valena lost her husband and her first child to Skasa's monsters. Getting back her brother's necklace will mean a lot to her. Please help."
Objectives	Find the remaining necklace pieces in Mount Thunderime Forest.
Dungeon Dialogue	Upon entering the Boss Room: Charlie: "Is this a new toy? Let's play! Play!" Upon defeating the Boss: Charlie: "The toy broke... This is not fun."
Upon Completion	Rino: "Welcome back. What did you find this time? ...What? Who did you say you met? Please tell me more. How did he look? Oh, wait. I'd better call Valena. She must hear this!"

Cold-hearted Child

Level	40
Quest Giver	Valena
Dungeon	Frozenheart
Briefing	Valena: "...That's the Charlie I remember. It looks exactly like him." Rino: "Then can you meet him again?" Valena: "I doubt it. You don't have to try to give me hope. By the looks of him, he's no longer human. Skasa's magic has turned him into a monster. Adventurer, could you find Charlie again? I don't want him to wander the mountain forever with his heart as frozen as ice. Please send him to my parents..."
Objectives	Defeat Frozenheart.  Piece of Debris from Charlie's Necklace: E (1)
Dungeon Dialogue	Upon entering the Boss Room: Charlie: "Can we play again? Can you play with me? I need more toys!" Upon defeating the Boss: Charlie: "Ouch, why are you hitting me?

Skasa's Terror

Level	40
Quest Giver	Valena
Dungeon	Ryku Point
Briefing	Valena: "This is Charlie's necklace. Oh my, I never though I'd see it again. For a long time, I tried to forget Charlie. That's why I wasn't happy when you said you'd found him. I couldn't believe Rino bothered you with such a request. But hearing that my brother is finally freed from Skasa's curse, I can't help but cry. Thank you. Thank you so much. What's Skasa's curse? It's terrible magic. It's the reason we've been suffering for a long time. It took away my husband and my son." Rino: "This place has gotten colder because of Skasa, because of his magic cast all over the mountain. And when he woke up from his winter sleep, it got colder and windier. You want to investigate it? Then go to Ryku Point, which is also called the Cave of the White Shadow in our language."
Objectives	Explore Ryku Point.
Dungeon Dialogue	Upon entering the Dungeon: Bantu Amazon: "Outsiders! Kill them!" Upon entering Room B2: Bolk Patriarch Trumanbausch: "Who are you? You're trespassing on our land! Hm. One of my tribesmen has acknowledged you. Well, but he's not me, is it? I consider every outsider I meet an enemy. Get ready for the Bantu's wrath." Upon clearing Room B2: Bolk Patriarch Trumanbausch: "Urgh... I can't believe I lost to an outsider..."
Upon Completion	Orca: "You're the adventurer I saw the other day. I told you to leave. Why are you still here? You came to check Skasa's curse. Not many adventurers have showed an interest in it. Why? To stop a war. Hah hah! Don't be so full of yourself. We're not poor barbarians in need of the Principality's help. Skasa is a threat to us, yes, but we'd rather die than get helped by the Principality. Stop talking nonsense and get out of here." Iris: "That's not all, great Vice Chief of the Bantus." <Player>: "...?!"

Sudden Appearance of Iris

Level	40
Quest Giver	Orca
Dungeon	Ryku Point
Briefing	Orca: "Strangers again. How did you come here?" Iris: "I understand that I'm being rude, but I'm willing to take on the risks to deliver a message." Orca: "If you know you're being rude, then leave." Iris: "I can't. This message is very important. Your'e the younger brother to Bwanga, one of the Four Blade Masters who defeated Apostle Sirocco. Would you really look the other way when Arad's future is at stake?" <Player>: "(The Four Blade Masters...)" Orca: "How dare you try to use my brother's name against me?" Iris: "What can I do to make you listen to me?" Orca: "My people are suffering from a sudden cold wind. Find its cause and address it. If you can't help us, you can't help anyone else in Arad." Iris: "Consider it done. Please wait in your village. Adventurer, could you come this way?"
Objectives	Follow Iris.
Dungeon Dialogue	Upon entering Room D1: Iris: "This place is very cold. The sinister energy from the wind chills me to the bone." If player isn't a priest <Player>: "Iris, you told me not to go to Mount Thunderime. Why did you come here? To stop me?" If player is a priest <Player>: "You told me not to go to Mount Thunderime. Why did you come here?" Iris: "Ah, I said it because it was the right thing to do at the time. But in chaotic times like this, the same prophecy can mean two opposite things sometimes. Just like how the wind changes direction, destiny constantly changes its course. Anyway, it doesn't matter. Adventurer, the Bantus say this is just Skasa's curse, but this omnious energy that's filling this place is more than that. Maybe you should see it for yourself. There's a very dark energy in front of you. Could you check it?" Upon entering the Boss Room: Ice Golem Ryku: "Grr.."
Upon Completion	Ice Golem Ryku: "Grr... GRRRRR!" <Player>: "...!" Iris: "Adventurer, this way!"

White Shadows That Would Not Fall

Level	40
Quest Giver	Iris
Dungeon	Ryku Point
Briefing	Iris: "You met an old spirit of Mount Thunderime who has fallen victim to Skasa's cruel magic. He couldn't have been strong enough to create such a cold wind. This is a power tainted by the Black Nightmare. Adventurer, to complete Orca's challenge, we must defeat the rampaging White Shadow. He must have a small ice crystal embedded in his chest. Remove it and he won't move again."
Objectives	Defeat Ryku in Ryku Point and collect Ice Crystals.  Ice Crystal (1)
Upon Completion	Iris: "Having lost this snowflake, Ryku will return into a mound of snow. It will no longer be a threat to others. This clear snowflake survived the ravages of time and evolved into what it is now, but it couldn't resist the darkness that encroached upon it. What a shame! We should go back down now. Now that the fierce wind has abated, Orca might listen to us. I'll also tell you why I had to come all the way here."

A New Danger

Level	40
Quest Giver	Orca
Briefing	Orca: "The wind has abated. All right, what do you have to say to me?" Iris: "Orca, you know Arad is surrounded by dangers of all kinds. Your dispute with the Principality is only the tip of the iceberg. You're afraid of the ice dragon, Skasa. You say you came here to avoid him, but there's something you're hiding." Orca: "What do you think we're hiding?" Iris: "That Skasa's energy is colder than ever. And that a majority of your members have gone out of control. Am I wrong?" Orca: "...Did you see that through your fortune-telling trick?" Iris: "I know the cause; I can easily tell the results. Both of you must have seen the dark energy relased from those who hve changed beyond recognition." Orca: "..."
Objectives	Meet Orca in Storm Pass and continue to listen to him. Meet Orca: 0/1
Upon Completion	Orca: "I've never heard that before. You must have met Ryku. Did he also lose his mind to the Black Nightmare?" Iris: "I wouldn't be surprised if he was affected by it." Orca: "Then the Black Nightmare is as evil as Skasa." Iris: "That's the reason I came here. I think Skasa is more affected by it than Ryku is. Orca, when did Skasa awaken? My reading showed it awakened when Apostle Lotus perished. The Apostles appear in Arad through the Metastasis, and they also cause it by releasing powerful energy as they die. The Metastasis caused by Lotus's death could've invited the Black Nightmare to this place."
Rewards	34,456 Exp 2,592 Gold

To Meet Bwanga

Level	40
Quest Giver	Orca
Dungeon	Frostfield
Briefing	Orca: "Apostle Lotus? I didn't know. I wonder if this was why my brother had such a strong sense of foreboding before..." Iris: "Skasa is under the Black Nightmare's influence. To defeat him, we need Bwanga. He's strong enough to resist Sirocco's mind attacks. Where is he?" Orca: "He's training. He said he didn't want to be bothered, but this has to do with the Apostles. He'll understand. But I have to stay here, watching over my people. I don't know much about the black Nightmare, but since Skasa awoke, my people have been quarreling with each other over everything. Some of them even insist on shedding blood. I went to Ryku Point to find the cause of the cold snap, but I can't afford to go deep into Mount Thunderime to see my brother. Stranger--no, you, the Adventurer who fought Lotus, my brother's training ground is beyond Frostfield. I'll give you the directions there." Iris: "I'll go with him. I'll have to explain the situation to him, anyway."
Objectives	Climb Frostfield.
Upon Completion	Iris: "Tha Bantus are an alliance of different tribes that would've scattered a long time ago, if it weren't for their powerful leader, Bwanga. Right now, they're facing one of the biggest challenges that they've ever had. Where's Bwanga?"

Climb Frostfield

Level	40
Quest Giver	Iris
Dungeon	Frostfield
Briefing	Iris: "Of course, he has his reasons. He loves his tribe mroe than anything else. I heard Siran had a hard time persuading Bwanga into fighting Sirocco. Yes. Among the Four Blade Msters, only Siran and Bwanga knew each other beforehand. Bwanga didn't want to leave his people and Siran had to drag him away. He might have been exaggerating like he does sometimes, but... Ah, I'm not close to Siran. I just counseled him a few times while I traveled Arad. Did you catch your breath? Then let's start climbing again."
Objectives	Climb Frostfield.
Upon Completion	Iris: "I can't believe there are fire spirits in this snowy mountain. They can't have been born here naturally. Maybe Skasa created them before falling asleep. Poor spirits, they were cursed by cruel magic and born in a place that is an anathema to their existence. Please give me a moment. I want to pray that they will go back to Mother Nature and be reborn where they truly belong."

A Yeti Trying to Cause an Avalanche

Level	40
Quest Giver	Iris
Dungeon	Frostfield
Briefing	Iris: "Oh, no... Adventurer, could you come here and look over there? Principality soldiers. They're pretty close. They must have been fed up with the Bantus' intrusions and decided to go to war. Whoever sent you here, he must be really upset. This must have been another reason Orca didn't want to leave his village. This makes me feel angry. Everyone must join forces to overcome this challenge Arad is facing, and yet-- We don't have time to worry about the future right now. Here this thumping sound? It might be an indication of an avalanche. Let's go up."
Objectives	Climb Frostfield.
Dungeon Dialogue	Upon entering the Boss Room: Iris: "This giant yeti must have tried to cause an avalanche by stomping on the snow on top of the mountain. I believe yetis and the Bantus have lived harmoniously so far, but given that it tried to cause an avalanche when it knew its friends are down below, it must be..."
Upon Completion	Iris: "Innocent creatures have turned into terrifying enemies. Then again, no one could've avoided such a curse."

Bwanga's Camp

Level	40
Quest Giver	Iris
Dungeon	Bwanga's Camp
Briefing	Iris: "Adventurer, see the sign over there? It's the Bantus' warning to trespassers. Even Bantus, if they're not allowed to enter this area, are punished for trespassing. But don't worry. As you may know, the Bantus worship strength. Show these warriors what you've got, and they'll take you to Bwanga. And I'd better go back down from here. I wanted to meet Bwanga and talk to him myself, but the situation down below is too serious. I'm going to meet with the Principality army and stall it. We can't have it go to war with the Bantus right now; we have to take care of Skasa first. Adventure, please bring Bwanga with you."
Objectives	Enter Bwanga's Camp.
Dungeon Dialogue	Upon entering the dungeon: Kunic Totem Summoner: "Halt! No outsider is allowed in here!" Upon clearing Room A2: Kunic Totem Summoner: "Bah! All right, you may pass." Upon entering the Boss Room: Ice Layer Malaga: "Hm. I think I can beat Bwanga now. You're a stranger. How did you come this far? You look like you know what you're doing. I could use a warm-up before I fight Bwanga."
Upon Completion	Ice Layer Malaga: "Ugh... Darn it, I lost to an outsider! This isn't over. My horns are still sharp and strong!"

Lariat Lari's Challenge

Level	40
Quest Giver	Lariat Lari
Dungeon	Bwanga's Camp
Briefing	Lariat Lari: "*Snort* You said you were the strongest Toros, and you couldn't even beat a stranger." Ice Layer Malaga: "I've still got my horns intact! Next time I will--" Lariat Lari: "You always say next time, but that next time never seems to come. Maybe you should consider leaving the training ground. Hey stranger, I don't know what brings you here, but our chief is busy training right now. If you want to talk to him, you'll have to get past me first. I'll go wait for you. Let's see if you can beat poor Malaga. Ho ho ho!" Ice Layer Malaga: "Grr, that woman!"
Objectives	Defeat Lariat Lari in Bwanga's Camp who tries to stop you.
Dungeon Dialogue	Upon entering the Boss Room: Lariat Lari: "I've been seeing the same people for so long, I actually welcome outsiders. Now, I will restore the honor of the Toroses that Malaga has lost."
Upon Completion	Lariat Lari: "Huff, huff. Bah, I can't blame this on Malaga anymore. You won."

Last Gateway before Bwanga

Level	40
Quest Giver	Lariat Lari
Dungeon	Bwanga's Camp
Briefing	Lariat Lari: "Why do you want to meet the Chief? Didn't Orca warn you? ...Skasa has changed for the worse. *Snort* I didn't expect to hear that name from a stranger. I'm tired of this! The Principality is driving us back to the cold place, and Skasa is bent on freezing us to death. Thank you for explaining the situation to me, but I don't want to get distracted from my training. Why don't you go talk to the Chief yourself? He's in the back. You'll have to get past a couple of more fellows, but you're strong enough to beat me. They won't be a problem for you."
Objectives	Make your way into Bwanga's Camp to meet Bwanga.
Dungeon Dialogue	Upon entering Room C2: Medusa Sasa: "Did those big, stupid Toroses let you in? Sigh, I'd better talk to the Chief about those useless people later. Anway, you know what I'm going to say, don't you?" Upon clearing Room C2: Medusa Sasa: "Sigh, I don't understand this... I haven't met such a strong outsider for a long time." Kunic Snake Charmer: "Sasa, he's the only one left now. Are you sure about this?" Medusa Sasa: "You were sitting in the corner, doing nothing, again. Sigh, you're going to give me a coronary! Hey, outsider. Give me a moment, okay? Okay?" Upon entering the Boss Room: Chuseol: "Aww, it's cold... So cold! I'm cold. Why do these keep following me? Shoo! Shoo! Aww... Err? Who are you? Maybe fighting will warm me up. All right, here I come!" Upon defeating Chuseol: Chuseol: "Argh, leave me alone! I'm cold!"
Upon Completion	Blizzard Chuseol: "Aww... I've been moving and I'm still cold. I can't warm myself up."

Finally Meet Bwanga

Level	40
Quest Giver	Blizzard Chuseol
Dungeon	Bwanga's Camp
Briefing	Blizzard Chuseol: "Ahchoo--ahchoo! Aww... I'd love to have a cup of warm kumis... Why am I out shivering in the cold? Because of this totem. I shouldn't have touched it, but I wanted it so badly that I stole it. This is my punishment--ahchoo! Worse still, I can't go outside this training for ten years. It's the rule of my tribe... Aww, I want to go someplace warm... Anyway, if you want to meet the Chief, get in. Ah, tell him I did my best to stop you. I don't want him to get angry at me and give me a harsher punish--ahchoo!"
Objectives	Meet Bwanga in Bwanga's Camp.
Dungeon Dialogue	Upon entering the Boss Room: Bwanga: "...Who are you? What's an outsider doing here? I didn't call anyone. The Apostles? The Black Nightmare? I wasn't prepared to talk about such worrisome topics. So the terror of the Apostles hasn't ended. I understand you're in a hurry, but you've fought your way through formidable warriors to come this far. Would you do me the honor of having a match with me? Just think of this as a sparring session."
Upon Completion	Bwanga: "You're impressive. I'd like to know why you came here to see me."

Bwanga's Determination

Level	40
Quest Giver	Bwanga
Briefing	Bwanga: "The Black Nightmare stirs up violence in people and monsters alike. I think I know what it is. Or it's possible I know it better than anyone else. Around the time Skasa woke up, I started experiencing unfamiliar feelings. Endless desires. I wanted to attack the Principality and save my people from the cold. I wanted to behead Skasa and save my people from his terror. But these desires weren't born from my sense of responsibility as the Chief; they were born from anger and compulsion, with no true reason behind them. I came here to get out of that phase by focusing on my training, but my people need me. I'd better go down."
Objectives	Meet Orca in Storm Pass. Meet Orca: 0/1
Upon Completion	Orca: "Brother, welcome back." Bantu: "Chief, you're safe!" Bwanga: "How's everyone? Thank you for waiting for me. Orca, I've heard the Principality Army is near us." Orca: "A fortune teller called Iris said that she would explain our situation to the Principality. She thinks our members refuse to listen to you and started fighting because--" Bwanga: "Because of the Black Nightmare. This adventurer told me. What a strange phenomenon! That explains the series of recent events. I've decided that if Skasa is also under its influence, just avoiding him will not improve our situation." Orca: "Brother, do you mean you want to fight Skasa?"

The Bantus Have Risen

Level	40
Quest Giver	Bwanga
Dungeon	Skasa's Lair
Briefing	Bwanga: "I don't know how to get rid of the Black Nightmare, but we can't wait until its effects on Skasa wear out and he goes back to sleep. For the short amount of time since he awoke, we've lost many men and were forced to come this far. We must go back now and defeat Skasa, not for the Principality, but for our pride as a people." Orca: "Brother, you've made up your mind. Good, I agree. Let's get rid of that accursed ice dragon and go back home." Bantu: "Let's do it! The Stru Mountains belong to us!" Rino: "I like your enthusiasm, but how are you going to get rid of Skasa? None of the former chiefs, was able to achieve that." Mintai: "But we can't run from him forever. Even if we seek refuge with the Principality, the threat of Skasa won't go away, will it?" Bwanga: "That's right. And this adventurer here fought Apostles with Aganzo and Vaughn. With such a brave warrior on our side, we definitely have a chance at defeating our old enemy. Adventurer, I believe your anger toward evil deeds and evildoers must have propelled you this far. We share the same sentiment. Could you help us? Thank you. You'll be a friend of us Bantu forever." Orca: "Then let's go. It's time to show Skasa what we've learned from our grueling training." Bantu: "*Roar* Let's defeat Skasa!"
Objectives	Head out to Skasa's Lair to defeat Skasa.
Dungeon Dialogue	Upon entering the dungeon: Bwanga: "Don't block the way of Bwanga, the chief of the Bantus." Female Toros Warrior: "We just want to fight. We don't care whom we fight. Even if it's you, Bwanga!" Orca: "How dare you?" Bwanga: "I see. You've succumbed to the Black Nightmare and turned into bloodthirsty creatures. As your chief, it's my duty to stop you. Come on, don't think I'll go easy on you." Upon entering the Boss Room: Bwanga: "Karta! How could you?" Gust Karta: "I... I've never accepted you as my chief. You were only luckier than I was." Orca: "We're on our way to fight Skasa. Get out of the way!" Gust Karta: "It should've been me who became the chief! If I could make up for the mistake I made back then, I wouldn't care what others might think! And this is my opportunity!" Bwanga: "Bah, I don't have time for this! Then get this done as quickly as you can." Upon defeating the Boss: Gust Karta: "Kurggh... Ugh... I never... ..."
Upon Completion	Orca: "Brother, you didn't have to fight him in person." Bwanga: "It didn't feel like someone else's business. I was also under its dark influence. I was all but blinded by bloodlust." Orca: "Oh, no. But you were the only one who didn't lose his composure in the face of Sirocco's mind attacks." Bwanga: "That should tell you how powerful the Black Nightmare is. It's not trickery. It elicits and intensifies one's dark desires, turning him into a monster. Fortunately for me, I knew what to keep an eye out for before its influence washed over me. Karta didn't. I wanted to put him out of his misery on my own." Orca: "I see."

Ask Help to the Principality

Level	40
Quest Giver	Orca
Dungeon	Skasa's Lair
Briefing	Orca: "This is frustrating. I'll run out of my energy fighting my own kind before I get to the real enemy, Skasa." Bwanga: "... Orca. The fortune-teller went to the Principality Army, right? Go to the Army and ask for help." Orca: "What?" Bantu: "Are you out of your mind? We can't ask for help from the Principality!" Bwanga: "Who's our enemy? Who's terrorizing our people? Who froze a little boy for eternity and broke his parents' hearts? Who's made us feel fear every time we hear the tremor of the mountains or see the shadow of a cloud? Skasa has!" Bantu: "..." Bwanga: "Skasa hurt what belonged to us. The Principality is just like us. It's afraid of losing what it has, to us. We must admit our weakness. We must join forces in the face of such a formidable enemy! Orca, go ask the Principality for reinforcments on my behalf. In the meantime, I'll clear out the traitors and Skasa's lackeys. We're strong, but we can't keep fighting forever. We need help. Brave warriors are not afraid of shaking hands with their enemies should the occasion arise, and the Principality is nothing compared to Skasa." Bantu: "..." Bwanga: "Orca." Orca: "Okay. I'll come back with reinforcements. You'd better stay alive until then." Bwanga: "Of course. Adventurer, Skasa must know we're coming. It'll send its soldiers to stop us. Let's split up and fight them separately. Show us what you did to defeat Apostle Lotus."
Objectives	Eliminate all the enemies in Skasa's Lair.
Upon Completion	Bwanga: "Hah hah hah! Outstanding! I'm getting excited, just by watching you fight! ...Mm?"
