Test of the Reformer

After my master sent us here, we had barely managed to escape the prying eyes of the Orcs and to build a home for ourselves. But a few days later, werewolves came here and attacked us, trying to drive us out. I don't think this is related in any way to the church of Einhasad, but... Anyway, after a few skirmishes, we reached an agreement to send representatives and settle this through combat. However...

Our representative is not feeling very well. Ah! How about this? You look like you are a magic user... What if you support us from the back with your magic...? Werewolves do not know any magic at all. Ah, it will soon begin.

Do you understand? You cannot step forward and launch a direct physical attack. Though they may not be so bright, they will soon notice, and then their entire tribe will attack us. No one will be able to survive...

...Darn it! I would have never guessed, a betrayer...! Wait, there is no guarantee that the betrayer has come only to this place! I am worried about the other meeting places... I don't know what kind of person he is, but I can guess the way he is thinking...

Anyway, please take this letter to my master. He will give some sort of orders. Goodbye...

Oh... Did you say that Mother Sla sent you? Nothing's wrong except that I have been to busy these days working... Her worries were unnecessary. Never mind! Welcome! Hey! I bet on a fight with the lizardmen over there. Will you fight instead? I warn you that the competitor is really strong, though. The original challenger says he has a stomachache and he cannot fight... What do you say to it?

Why does everyone have to have a stomachache just before fighting a strong person? At least I hope they could come up with a better excuse...

Wow! Wonderful! Please win! Please! You must win! Or else I won't leave you in peace!

Thank you for your help. I will never forget your kindness. Take this... It is a small token of my regard.

An introduction letter from Rupino? ...Ha, ha...yes, of course, that's her... upright as always. As long as she is worrying like that, she'll never do something like nailing iron into anyone's head, including herself.

And There is one more thing I'd like to ask about you... Do you believe in that the Gods' will exists in this world through our behaviors?

Then what is our role as a devotee? Will you be able to reply to my question? Go back Go back and be a good Priest who obeys to what other Priests say. Well at least you won't be like any other rotten Priests, now that you have had those worries before...

If you change your mind, come back and talk to me again.

...Do you think that the sons of Grand Kain should also be our object of love and mercy, in addition to the sons of Einhasad?

I made a wise decision in sending you. It might have been too difficult for Katari to manage all alone...

By the way, what is that? Is that Ol Mahum money? It's useless.

You'd better throw that away... As you know, I have one more thing that requires your help. There are some Ol Mahums who recently converted to my teachings, after being touched by my lecture on the tenet of light a few days ago. But the opposition from the church was so strong that I had to ask my pupils to shelter them in a safe place. We split them into 3 groups, and sent them to Talking Island Village, Orc Village Town of the northern region, and the Dwarven Village... But I haven't heard any news from them. I am very worried....with the recent Ol Mahum campsite incident and all... Would you go and check how they are doing for me?

I'll write you 3 letters to give to my disciples.. First, go and meet Kakan. She said that she would settle down in a place southeast of Orc Village Town...

Are you troubled that we are being deceitful? But we have already lost many friends because we have fallen for their lies. They do not know the meaning of a promise... And do you not think this is the best way to minimize sacrifices?

Here is a letter addressed to my master. Please deliver the letter any chance you get.

You say you must meet with all of Sla's disciples? Then try going to the village of the Dwarves, which is nearby. One of my fellow disciples, Nyakuri, has settled down in a place outside the Dwarven Village, to the west.

Please reconsider. Even if they win, we will all die here in this place. Plus, our representative has been weakened because of those very werewolves. There was no evidence, but... They are savage, but clever.

Wonderful! You really won...! The person that you just defeated, is said to be one of the strongest man in their tribe. I guess now they won't bother us for a long time. Here, this is the letter that I sent to Sella's mother. Say hello to her for me--

By the way, You must go to Talking Island Village next! There was a man called Ramus among the pupils of Mother Sla, and I once saw him send a letter mentioning the waterfall on Talking Island Village...

I made a wise decision in sending you. It might have been too difficult for Katari to manage all alone...

But I have one more thing that requires your help. There are some Ol Mahums who recently converted to my teachings, after being touched by my lecture on the tenet of light a few days ago. But the opposition from the church was so strong that I had to ask my pupils to shelter them in a safe place. We split them into 3 groups, and sent them to Talking Island Village, Orc Village Town of the northern region, and the Dwarven Village... But I haven't heard any news from them.

I'll write you 3 letters to give to my disciples.. First, go and meet Kakan. She said that she would settle down in a place southeast of Orc Village Town...

What brought you here? You are a man of faith, like me... Do you have any problems? Are you worrying about the higher level in faith, by any chance?

...Sorry to say, but I think it's a bit early for you to have such worries... While you sincerely follow the path of faith, there will come a point when you shall face a barrier. That is when you should seek me.

(Quest available only for Clerics or Shilien Oracles of level 39 and higher.)

I am a Priest who serves the God of light. But my main work is to give advice to brothers and sisters who are having a hard time with their faith. Would you like to convert to Einhasad? Then go and see the other Priests over there.

(Quest available only for Clerics or Shilien Oracles of level 39 and higher.)

The nail that was hammered into Aruraune's head was to brainwash the untamable Mandragora. I can see no difference between the person who hammered a nail into that poor creature's head and the Priests who are brainwashing ignorant people with their tenets... Or perhaps we too, are already brainwashed...?

Now... I want you to meet someone. She was a former Priestess of this shrine but was dismissed after being accused of paganism. I was afraid, and couldn't dare to give up my present status and social relations so I denied thinking deeply about her message. If you have the courage to carry through your beliefs, you should go and talk to her.

Is that so? If you made up your mind, take this introduction letter with you. She is still propagating her beliefs in Southern Entrance of Wastelands after being dismissed from the shrine. The so-called 'wild plain shouter', Preacher Sla... It is she.

If only I had the courage that you have right now...

No, nothing, never mind! Now you better go and meet Preacher Sla. She is in Southern Entrance of Wastelands. Give her my best regards...

Easier said than done, eh?... Do you realize how 'heretical' your words were? If the high people from the shrine heard you, I bet you'd be tied to the stake by now...

I believe that it is Einhasad's will that you are here. As a matter of fact, there is something that you can help me with.

Actually, my disciples are performing missionary work for the warriors of Grecia. They are having a hard time with those bad tempered Ol Mahums. I want you to go and help them. The person in charge of the missionary is called 'Katari'. You'll be able to meet her near the waterfalls of The Neutral Zone

The master sent you...? You couldn't have come at a better time, my friend. Look here... This place was originally where the converted Ol Mahums secretly converged to hold their meetings, but ill fortune has caused for them to be discovered by mercenary scouts this evening. It would be nice if an unknown stranger did something... Chase them off!

Scouts! Thank you, finally we can have some peace and quiet... What! Is that not so? I learned this while you were fighting, and much to my experience, there was a betrayer among the Ol Mahums...

...who is it!! Drat, is it him? Halt!

I am worried about the other Ol Mahums. I must go to see if my brothers are safe. Please capture that traitor! You must capture him! Understand?

Oh my God! You have come this far for this...? Thank you.

How is my master? Things here are going so well..., too well that it makes me worried sometimes. The people here are much more open minded compared to other places.

We are planning a big assembly in the Elven Village relics of Talking Island Village, and we decided to hold a memorial service beforehand to calm down the magic creatures.

Ah, I see! Would it be possible for you to gather the bone pieces? Gather a piece of bone from every undead in the relic. Please take a look at this diagram...

This task is... gathering the bones for the memorial service so it has to be done by the Priests firsthand. Could you do that, please?

There is an ancient Elven Village relic to the north of Talking Island Village and it is the only place suitable for such a big assembly. Collect the bone pieces and remains of the undead from there. Be careful not to lose your diagram...

Thank you. Thanks to you, I think we will be able to hold a successful meeting today. I would be grateful if you could deliver this letter to my master for me.

Well done! Thanks to your efforts we are now getting to have a stable life... I could read from my pupils' letters that they too, accepted you as our companion. Not to mention me, who thought of you as my friend from the beginning... Here, take this Mark of the Reformer.
