Varkees
Atuba Chief Varkees says that a foreign race known as the rakeclaw imps have invaded the Immortal Lands, polluting the holy land of the Orcs. According to his explanation, the rakeclaw imps are a race created from magic, and are being controlled by someone through black magic. Defeat the invaders of the holy land, and collect the soulstones embedded in their hearts in order to find out who is behind them.

I,
Varkees, do not think that these petty creatures are brave enough to face Orcs on their own. According to the seers, a jewel called the soulstone is embedded in the hearts of
rakeclaw imps. This soulstone attaches itself to its host and steals the host's spirit, allowing dark magicians to bend the creatures to their will!
The seers have revealed this truth to me,
Varkees. That if we gather enough soulstones, we will be able to turn their own powers against them and find out who is controlling the imps. I, the Atuba Chief
Varkees, command you! Defeat the foreigners who have invaded our holy land, and bring the soulstones embedded in their hearts!
Player choice:
Tejakar Paagrio! Well then, young Orc Village, go at once and defeat the
rakeclaw imps, collect their soulstones, and bring them back to me! I, the Atuba Chief
Varkees, will reward you based on the number of soulstones you bring!
But, listen well! Although the soulstones are originally red, they turn black when they assimilate with the host. Imps are weak-minded, so most of the soulstones in the hearts of the imps will have turned black. But some of the strong-minded ones might still have red soulstones. Should you bring me a
red soulstone, I will give you an even greater reward!
Tejakar Paagrio! You've done well, young Orc Village. Though the
red soulstone has not yet been found, the black soulstones you have brought will be of great aid in revealing the powers controlling the imps!
As promised I, Atuba Chief
Varkees, will reward you for each of the soulstones you have brought. Young Orc Village who has fought for our pride, this is a fair compensation for your hard work and sacrifice.
Player choices:
Tejakar Paagrio! Is this not the
red soulstone! You've done well, young Orc Village. A job well done, indeed! With this, the seers will be able to use their sorcery and find out the powers that are controlling the imps!
I, the Atuba Chief
Varkees, hereby reward you. As I promised, I will compensate you for each of the soulstones you have brought me. Young Orc Village who has fought for our honor, this is the reward for your hard work and sacrifice. So do not refuse!
Player choices:
Quit?! Our revenge against the invaders of our holy hand has only just begun. At a time like this, why do you desire to withdraw your weapons and walk away from the battle? Don't tell me you are frightened?
Young Orc Village, have you forgotten the faith of our race! Orcs never retreat from the battlefield!
I,
Varkees, will find out the powers controlling the imps by performing a countertracking spell with the seers. While I am doing this, young Orc Village, continue to fight for the honor of our race! Tejakar Paagrio!
Did you think that I, Atuba Chief
Varkees, would seek the help of the weak races like yours! Get out of my sight!
