However, ol mahums are not savages like werewolves, but highly trained soldiers. They are very difficult to deal with, since they are well organized like regular armies.
A few days ago, our Black Lion troop was shamefully defeated in a close battle with ol mahums on the outskirts of Gludin Village. Many brothers lost their lives in combat. We are short of troops until our brothers of the second platoon, who have been dispatched to Southern Entrance of Wastelands in the south, return. So we have decided to recruit skilled fighters to temporarily fill our troop.
From the scars on your armor and the way you hold your weapon, you seem like you have had a lot of experience on the field. What do you think? Won't you fight for the Black Lions? It is an opportunity to play a role in punishing the cruel ol mahum who have ruined this land.
Player choice:
The Black Lion undoubtedly rewards its members according to skill and performance. You will be paid according to the number of enemies you kill. One condition, though, you must take the badge of ranking as a token of proof.
ol mahum use badges in the shape of a cross, taking after the foreign troops of Gracia. Soldiers have red, sergeants have blue, and officers have black cross badges. Naturally, you will receive a higher award depending on the rank of the ol mahum you killed.
If you display great skills on the battlefield, you can become an official member of the Black Lions. For this, you must gather 100 badges of the ol mahum to prove your skills.
Currently, ol mahum are camping in the Abandoned Camp. If you don't know how to get there, ask Guard Lynchuss. Wonderful! Now get ready to depart, my comrade. Forward to victory!
I am currently studying dark horrors. These dark horrors are different in many ways from normal undead creatures. I think that perhaps dark horrors are monsters created by Shilen from the nightmares of the ancient ones, and are the personification of the most basic horrors ever known. The scythe that a dark horror holds represents death, and the sharp fangs like those found on evil creatures may have been objects of fear for the ancient ones ...
I plan to conduct more actual tests, to prove my scientific theory. For this, I'm going to need a model. How about it, do you think you can get me a skull of a dark horror? You seem more than capable of handling this request with no difficulties ...?
Player choice:
To find these dark horrors, you should go to the swamp area southwest of the village.
But it may be hard to find a perfect, whole skull. In most cases, when a dark horror dies, the power of the black magic that supports its life is scattered, and the bones are shattered. So, it may be difficult to find a perfect skull.
But even broken skulls are helpful to my research, and if you bring me broken skulls along with a perfect skull, I will reward you handsomely for your efforts, do not worry. However, I cannot base my studies on cracked skulls alone, and so I will not reward you until you bring me a perfect skull. If you are ready, you should be on your way now.
Ho, this is the whole, perfect skull of a dark horror ... Somehow, it looks similar to Elven Village skulls ... Hmmm ... interesting ...?
Wait ...! It can't be ...
Here, take the payment I have promised you. Now go away. Never speak of this again. You must promise me. Do you understand?

Currently, the Black Lion mercenaries are working for the lord of Gludio Castle Town. They are in charge of getting rid of the remnants of ol mahum, who are still staying and causing problems in this land. They have been fighting against the remnants for several months.
However, ol mahums are not savages like werewolves, but highly trained soldiers. They are very difficult to deal with, since they are well organized like regular armies.
A few days ago, our Black Lion troop was shamefully defeated in close battle with ol mahums on the outskirts of Gludin Village. Many brothers lost their lives in combat. We are short of troops until the second platoon returns from Southern Entrance of Wastelands in the south. I am very worried ... We may have to recruit some good fighters who will fight with us ...
(Quest for characters level 21 and above.)
I am sorry, but if this is truly your will, I cannot stop you. However, the ties made as brothers of the sword are not easily broken ... We will meet again someday. May the goddess of victory be with you in all the battlefields that you walk upon!!
Please continue your services, comrade of the sword. May the goddess of victory guide your sword and staff!
Welcome, my comrade of the sword! I congratulate you on your safe return. How was your performance on the battlefield?
How truly amazing! You brought back another hundred badges! Magnificent! Ha ha! You have already proven your skills and have been acknowledged as a member of the Black Lions, and yet you still amaze me!
I received a letter that the brothers of the second platoon, who were dispatched to the south part of Gludio Castle Town, will return later than planned. Our brothers here must hold on until they return. Go on back to the battlefield and fight, brother of the sword!
Player choices:
You are still young and probably do not know, but actually, fifty years ago a group of Dark Elves rose up in opposition to Tetrarch Thifiell. But one day, they all just disappeared.
After a long investigation, it was concluded that they had been slain by the Elves of light at that time ... But a few of my brothers, including myself, questioned the results of that investigation ...
Do not ask any more! You might also be put into danger. I plan to not get myself involved deeply in this matter either. Here, take your reward and forget about this incident.
Comrade, how is the situation on the battlefield? As you have no badge of the ol mahum in your hand, I see your performance has not been good. If you think fighting against the ol mahum is too difficult for you, you can always quit. It is better for both of us if you acknowledge your limits instead of aiming too high.
If you are thinking of continuing to fight ol mahums, I will give you some advice. As I already told you, the ol mahum may seem like savage beasts, but they have an organization that has been trained as well as any country's official army. Ol mahums will help companions in danger, so you may have to face several ol mahums at once.
Unless you form a troop like them, you have no choice but to approach them carefully and use guerilla tactics to deal with them one at a time. Knights may say it is a dishonorable way to fight, but it's quite an effective method.

Welcome, my comrade of the sword! I congratulate you on your safe return. How was your performance on the battlefield?
How truly amazing! You have really brought me 100 badges! Magnificent! As I promised, I acknowledge you a member of the Black Lions. Because of our current situation, we cannot give you a proper joining ceremony, but instead, I give you this mark. The mark shows that you are a member of the proud Black Lions.

I am currently conducting research on the undead, and need someone to fetch some materials for me. But I'm not sure how much a foreign race like yourself would understand about the ingredients used in black magic ... Yes, I think it would be best to ask someone from our race.
(Quest for Dark Elven Village characters.)
My latest interest is the spirits called dark horrors. I am currently studying these strange undead creatures. But I have yet to have a model of an actual dark horror, and my studies have not progressed significantly. At some point, I might have to ask you to get me some dark horror bones.
(Quest for Dark Elven Village characters level 15 or above.)
Haven't you been able to obtain the skulls yet? Well, there's no need to rush.
I repeat, to find the dark horrors, go to the swamp area that is southwest of the village. Slay the dark horrors and bring the skulls back to me. It doesn't matter if they are cracked. But you must bring me at least one perfect skull. If not, I cannot give you any reward.
Hmm ... This is without a doubt the skull of a dark horror. But I cannot perform my spell with cracked skulls alone. Bring me an uncracked, whole skull. Then I will pay you for the perfect skull, along with any cracked skulls you may bring me.
