10TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_SEQ_00Tataru is furrowing her brow in consternation.
21TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_SEQ_01A visibly distressed Tataru informs you of grave tidings from far-off Radz–at–Han. It would appear your fellow Scions have already assembled in the main hall to discuss the situation, and you resolve to join them as soon as you are able.
32TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_SEQ_02The news from Radz–at–Han is dire indeed. The heavens burn red, and unholy beasts run rampant, preying upon the people─indeed, the Final Days have come. With Krile and Tataru remaining behind to support your expedition as best they may, you prepare to depart with your companions to investigate the precise nature and extent of this calamity, and to combat it to the best of your ability.
43TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_SEQ_03Thavnair is truly the stuff of nightmares. More disturbing than the rampaging beasts, however, are the words of Ahewann, satrap of Radz–at–Han, who shares with you the revelation that the monstrosities that plague the city are his own countrymen, transformed by forces unknown. The largest and most fearsome of the creatures─dubbed a “blasphemy” by the local populace─has fled north after wreaking havoc on the city. The dragon Vrtra, guardian of Thavnair, and the Radiant Host have already been dispatched in pursuit, and the satrap would have you join them.
54TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_SEQ_04At the docks, Ahewann briefs you on the plan of attack. You and your fellow Scions are to circle to the north side of the island by boat, and hunt for the blasphemy deep within the sacred jungle of Vanaspati. Looking out over the waters, you steel yourself for the battle to come. ※To enlist your companion NPCs for this duty, speak with them near the entrance or access Duty Support via the main menu. Use the Duty Finder if you wish to complete the instance alongside fellow players.
65TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_SEQ_05You and your companions succeed in putting down the blasphemy, thereby eliminating the greatest threat to the people of Thavnair. There is little cause to rejoice, however, as yet more disturbing news has come to light: the ill-fated men-turned-beasts were bereft of all their aether─not only their lives, but their very souls are beyond saving. With newfound resolve to uncover the true cause of the transformations and put an end to them for good, you and your companions make to survey the area one last time before returning to Radz–at–Han.
76TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_SEQ_06Though the blasphemy itself has fallen, the battle against the beastly horde rages on in the skies above. Entrusting the task of defending the island from above to the dragon Vrtra─who grudgingly allows Estinien a place upon his back─you prepare to return to Radz–at–Han with your companions. There, you will reconvene with Ahewann, that you might share the knowledge you have acquired and see how the city fares.
87TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_SEQ_07Ahewann welcomes you back to the city, and reports with some relief that the lingering beasts that yet plagued the city have been dispatched. Though the immediate threat has passed, however, it is no time to rest easy, for there is no telling where and when the next transformation might occur...

4948TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_TATARU_000_000Oh, Player! I was just about to call for you.
5049TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_TATARU_000_001I'm afraid we've received another call for assistance. This one comes from Radz–at–Han...
5150TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_TATARU_000_002The others have assembled in the main hall to discuss the situation. You must join them at once!
5251TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_TATARU_000_010I heard all about the Final Days from Krile, but I had no idea we'd feel the impact of it this soon...
5352TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_KRILE_000_020Ah, there you are.
5453TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_KRILE_000_021Our worst fears have come to pass. But moments ago, we received grim tidings from our contact in Radz–at–Han.
5554TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_KRILE_000_022Vile beasts have appeared as if out of nowhere, claiming one victim after the next. What's more, they say the very sky burns above them...
5655TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_ALPHINAUD_000_023Good gods... Are the Final Days already upon us?
5756TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_KRILE_000_024It would appear so. Sadly, that is all the information we have at present. No doubt the people of Radz–at–Han are busy fighting for their lives...
5857TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_ALISAIE_000_025Then we must go at once! They need our help!
5958TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_GRAHATIA_000_026Agreed. Krile, you'd best remain here with Tataru and gather what knowledge you can. You are in no condition for a long journey, I imagine.
6059TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_KRILE_000_027...Very well. Similar phenomena may have been observed elsewhere, and if so, we must know about it at once.
6160TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_KRILE_000_028Be safe out there, yes?
6261TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_THANCRED_000_029Let us make first for Yedlihmad. We must prepare ourselves for what may lie ahead.
6362TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_ALPHINAUD_000_040We do not wield the creation magicks that the ancients did, yet still these abominations appear. Whatever could be the cause?
6463TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_ALISAIE_000_045With the fall of the tower in Thavnair, the Hannish were beginning to enjoy a semblance of peace. And now this.
6564TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_THANCRED_000_050No similar creatures have been sighted here in Sharlayan. That said, the early signs may manifest in other regions ere long. We must be prepared for every eventuality.
6665TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_YSHTOLA_000_055In ancient times, the phenomenon was first observed in places where the celestial currents had grown weakest. 'Twould seem there is a stagnancy of aether in the skies above Radz–at–Han unbeknownst even to Vrtra.
6766TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_GRAHATIA_000_060If this calamity has indeed come to Thavnair, it is all too likely that Corvos across the strait finds itself in a similar predicament.
6867TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_GRAHATIA_000_061Even now, it remains an imperial province, and as such, it may be some time until we can ascertain the situation there. We can only hope that Krile and Tataru will be able to provide us with some insight sooner rather than later.
6968TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_ESTINIEN_000_065If the might of Vrtra is not enough to hold these fiends at bay, Radz–at–Han is in dire straits indeed. We must go at once.
7069TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_KRILE_000_070I would rather accompany you to Thavnair...but Raha's concerns are well founded. The last thing I would want is to be a burden.
7170TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_KRILE_000_071And so I will remain here with Tataru, and do all I can to gather knowledge that might serve us in the battle to come. Godsspeed in your journey, Player.
7271TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_TATARU_000_075I'm glad for Krile's support. I'll also call upon Hoary Boulder and the others to assist us. They will be our eyes and ears in the field, as they have been many times before.
7372TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_ALPHINAUD_000_080So the beasts are not born of creation magicks run amok, but are rather the altered forms of the people themselves. In that sense, this manifestation of the Final Days differs from that which we witnessed in Amaurot.
7473TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_ALPHINAUD_000_081...And for the worse, I daresay. If any man, woman, or child could become a beast at any moment, there is no telling whence the next threat might come. We must exercise extreme caution.
7574TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_ALISAIE_000_085Don't worry. No matter how grim things might get, I won't lose heart. I'm ready whenever you need me.
7675TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_THANCRED_000_090If it's true that the people themselves have transformed into beasts, why, even the Radiant Host could suffer the same fate. Or us, perish the thought...
7776TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_YSHTOLA_000_095I shall survey the environs closely as we go about our search. There may be some clue as to how we can combat this phenomenon.
7877TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_GRAHATIA_000_100Innocent souls twisted and reformed into unholy abominations. I thought I had seen the last of such nightmares with the sin eaters...
7978TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_GRAHATIA_000_101We must act quickly, Player! Every moment we tarry means another soul may be lost to this nightmare.
8079TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_ESTINIEN_000_105Usually the most dangerous foe in a wyrm's domain is the wyrm themselves. If I were Vrtra, I would be as offended as I am horrified.
8180TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_AWAHEEN_000_110Everyone has assembled, yes? I thank you for lending us your aid in our battle against the blasphemy. Let us review our plan of attack.
8281TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_AWAHEEN_000_111I would have you board this boat and circle around to the north side of the island.
8382TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_AWAHEEN_000_112There you will find a dense jungle we call Vanaspati.
8483TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_AWAHEEN_000_113It is a sacred wood, home to many temples and a number of villages.
8584TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_AWAHEEN_000_114Vrtra and the Radiant Host have gone there ahead of us.
8685TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_AWAHEEN_000_115I ask that you join them, and do all in your power to destroy this blasphemy.
8786TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_Q1_000_116What will you do?
8887TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_A1_000_117Small talk.
8988TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_A1_000_118Form a party and enter Vanaspati.
9089TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_A1_000_119Nothing.
9190TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_AWAHEEN_000_130I pray we are not too late to spare the settlements within Vanaspati the fate that has befallen our city.
9291TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_AWAHEEN_000_131Once we meet with Vrtra and the Radiant Host, they should be able to tell us more of the present situation.
9392TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_HANNISHROYALGUARD_000_135Continue with the main scenario quest?
9493TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_ALPHINAUD_000_140While Estinien and Vrtra defend Radz–at–Han from above, we on the ground must find a means to prevent these transformations...and soon.
9594TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_ALISAIE_000_145After so long, and so many sacrifices, we finally found a way to cure the tempered. But these poor souls...they vanish without a trace. Is there truly no saving them...?
9695TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_THANCRED_000_150The stillness in the air puts me ill at ease. We must be wary.
9796TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_YSHTOLA_000_155Worry not. I can see your aether, and that of our companions. We have not suffered the fate of those unfortunate souls.
9897TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_GRAHATIA_000_160All life must end in death. Yet death, in turn, gives birth to new life─such is the flow of aether. To think that natural cycle could simply be...cut off─the very thought makes me shudder.
9998TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_AWAHEEN_000_170Our Radiant Host has eliminated the immediate threat to the city, though it pains me to know those beasts were once my own people...
10099TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_AWAHEEN_000_171There is no telling when or where the next transformation might occur. We must remain vigilant and steel ourselves for whatever is yet to come.
101100TEXT_AKTKMD101_04409_SYSTEM_000_172You may now enter Vanaspati with a party of NPC avatars. To make use of this feature, open the **Trust** interface located under **Duty** in the main menu.
