[Otherverse] Void Rift

Level	70
Quest Giver	Grandis Gracia
Briefing	Grandis: "I have a serious matter that I feel I should be honest with you about. Ever since monsters from the Otherverse began invading through the Interdimensional Rift, the Order of Priests has suspected a link between them and Ozma. You see, if the Othervere is already unsealed, then there is a possibility that Ozma could escape into our world via the Rift. The Order of Priests has thus been sending agents into the Otherverse, to find evidence of Ozma's presence. Few of these agents returned alive... but a recent team located a major demonic stronghold. They are not strong enough to breech the base, though..." <Player>: "...So you want me to check out this stronghold, huh?" Grandis: "I do. I have no wish to send you into such peril, but I must ask you to lend us your strength. Now, if you are to do this, you must obtain a certain object from Iris, an energy tracer... *You show her the orb* Oh! Iris is one step ahead of everyone, as usual. All is prepared... I feel that this truly must be the will of God that we are fulfilling. Please, venture into the Void Rift, and find any trace you can of Ozma."
Objectives	Unknown
Upon Completion	Grandis: "Praise the Lord, you are safe! What have you learned?"
Rewards	Unknown Exp Unknown Gold

[Otherverse] Clash of Conviction

Level	70
Quest Giver	Grandis Gracia
Briefing	Grandis: "You have done us a great service. Now, take this orb to Iris..." Iris: "*Iris holds her hand over the orb. Her eyes dart back and forth as though reading invisible signs in the air." Grandis: "Lord grant us strength... Ozma... and another with his power. Dungeon Fighter. There is no one else I could ever ask this of. Please, for the sake of our Order... for the sake of all... Face Ozma, and strike him down."
Objectives	Unknown
Upon Completion	Grandis: "How... How can this be?! Michael helped found our Order... He led the quest to vanquish Ozma! Why would he stand between you and Ozma? This must be a mistake. You must be mistaken! *Gradis takes a deep breath* I am sorry. This is... very difficult for me to accept. I beg your understanding. For now, I will inform the Order. Please, give me some time."
Rewards	Unknown Exp Unknown Gold

[Otherverse] Ozma of Chaos

Level	70
Quest Giver	Grandis Gracia
Briefing	Grandis: "The Order of Priests have made their decision. Even if it truly is Michael of the Holy Eye... if he is defending Ozma, he is no longer one of us. You must destroy Ozma... even if it means destroying Michael as well."
Objectives	Unknown
Dungeon Dialogue	*Upon encountering Michael of the Holy Eye* Michael: "You do not understand. As long as I remain here, Ozma is trapped. He cannot reach our world. And so... I cannot let you pass. If you truly will not heed my words... then I have no choice..." *Upon encountering Ozma of Chaos* Ozma: "Ahh, this brings back memories... You did not have to come all this way, you know. I was on my way to find all of you, I assure you. I suppose I should thank you for saving me the effort..."
Upon Completion	Grandis: "You did it? Ozma is truly gone? Amazing... but what of Michael? *You tell her what happened* I see. I will inform the Order of everything that has happened. The.. specifics are unimportant of course. Defeating Ozma will give this whole world a new hope for the future."
Rewards	Unknown Exp Unknown Gold

[Otherverse] Return to Iris

Level	70
Quest Giver	Grandis Gracia
Briefing	Grandis: "I have sent a full report to the Order of Priests. They seem quite concerned for our future... as we all should be. Oh, forgive my poor mood right now. Iris asked me to send you over. She has something to discuss privately, it seems."
Objectives	Unknown
Upon Completion	Iris: "You have vanquished Ozma. I can hardly believe such a thing has come to pass. Your victory over pure evil will pass into legend, remembered for all time."
Rewards	Unknown Exp Unknown Gold

[Otherverse] Ulterior Motives

Level	70
Quest Giver	Iris Fortunesinger
Briefing	Iris: "I have a favor to ask. You still have the orb I gave you, of course. Take that orb to a place with strong evil energies, even stronger than you have faced thus far. I will reveal the purpose when you return. I know you will be interested."
Objectives	Unknown
Upon Completion	Iris: "Forgive my imposition, but you are simply the only person I know capable of what I ask."
Rewards	Unknown Exp Unknown Gold

[Otherverse] Gleaming energy

Level	70
Quest Giver	Iris Fortunesinger
Briefing	Iris: "The orb consumes evil energies around it, like those released when you fought Michael, Ozma, and other foes in the Otherverse. It appears it has fed well. Now, could you please return the orb to me?"
Objectives	Unknown
Upon Completion	Iris: "Please, restrain your curiosity for just a few moments more... we have much to discuss."
Rewards	Unknown Exp Unknown Gold

[Otherverse] The Fate of Empyrean

Level	70
Quest Giver	Iris Fortunesinger
Briefing	Iris: "At last! With all this energy, we can trace our true foe. *She holds her hand to the orb and breaths deeply* I can feel it... so strong... it must be him. Bakal. You must face Bakal, as you have faced the other Apostles, but beware... his power is beyond anything you have faced thus far. Take the path I showed you before to Empyrean of the past. I know you can do this... I need no precognition to say that."
Objectives	Unknown
Dungeon Dialogue	(Translation by kirov from dfocore) *Upon encountering Dragon Tyrant Bakal* Bakal: "You are not all Empyreans. Then let me guess. Are you the people from the future? Tell me, from how long after do you come from." <Player>: "Yes, we are. We come from 500 years ahead." Bakal: "500 years...I have to wait 500 more years...then did you defeat my three dragons?" <Player>: "We even defeated apostles transferred to Arad. Your sloppy dragons are no match for us." Bakal: "Congratulations. You passed the basic test. But the stupid apostles died in unfitting areas, playing in Hilder's hands? Let me guess. Siroko, Lotus, and Delezie...no?" <Player>: "How do you know of future events?" Bakal: "Hehe...the order is decided by fate. Whether purposely in that order, I do not know. But Humans, Empyreans, Pandemonians, and even Dark Elves. Hilder gathered all that seemed to have potential." <Player>: "We did not come here to talk, so let's fight. In history, we learned that the Empyreans killed you through the Machine Revolution, but we are here to lighten their shoulders a bit. Unfortunate you should be bleeding, but no mercy to the evil!" Bakal: "Kekekeke...you learned that the Empyreans killed me? With these machines? Sadly they might weaken me, but cannot kill me yet. Although facing all them at once did weaken me a lot. She took this chance to send you here. Good plan, Hilder. Now, let me teach you a real history lesson. If I die today, then it has been so in your past, too. Therefore, you killed me, not the Empyreans. And that did not change." <Player>: "...!?" Bakal: "Now you seem to understand. In order for your kind to become strong enough, 500 years. Hilder did not want me to hinder her plans for another 500 years, unknowing what might happen, so she is killing me today. Although even though you did not come here from the future, I was planning on going down to the continent. Ah, so that is why she was hasty. So, Hilder can control space-time as she wishes. Sending you back to the right time. Hearing your words, perhaps I just might die today. Now is the perfect chance. It is unfortunate to just die like this and be unable to test your true strength... Will your strengths be as Hilder thinks, or not. While I hindered her plans for another 500 years, did your kind grow stronger or were unchanging. In a well planned game like this, a small difference is everything. Ah, there is another factor. Even though I am weakened, will you be able to kill me? I might die today, but it might not be you, but others who also come from the future after you."
Upon Completion	Iris: "I can feel the time stream shifting to accommodate your actions... You have defeated Bakal. My faith in you was well-placed, it seems. However, I can see the battle has left you uncertain. Surely, you do not trust the words of the Dragon King? In part, he was right. It was your destiny to strike him down, and his destiny to be struck down. But you have not destroyed time... you have set it right. You need not take my word for it. This comes from Keening Hilder herself. She warned me that without your intervention, Bakal would rule our world even now. She even told me of the turmoil you would feel now after your battle. Your council is your own, but I ask you, are the Apostles not the root of all chaos? What you have done can only benefit our world..."
