4948TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_ARCHIVE_000_001What in the world happened to this isle during my centuries-spanning slumber?
5049TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_IRIS_000_005I have nothing to add...
5150TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_010I ordered the crew to continue investigatin' aetherial currents in the area. While they're roamin' around, I thought we might consider the mystery from a fresh angle.
5251TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_011We've established that the Occult Crescent is a museum of sorts for the Fifth Astral Era, right? But here on the North Horn, these relics and ruins were deliberately meddled with, seemingly in the name of replicatin' later calamities. Why so?
5352TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_012Fortunately for us, there's someone right here who ought to know.
5453TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_013Iris, why don't you tell us a little about yer master?
5554TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_IRIS_000_014As previously stated, I'm here to observe... Nothing more.
5655TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_015Heh. How about revisitin' a conversation we've already had, then? You wouldn't begrudge me that, would ye?
5756TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_016When we first met, I asked the Archive whether he'd summoned you. D'ye remember that?
5857TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_017Ye were adamant the “wizened little wretch” hadn't.
5958TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_018Were ye speakin' truthfully?
6059TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_IRIS_000_019Indeed. That much was true.
6160TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_020“That much”? Hmmm...
6261TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_021In that case, it's fair to assume Iris's master is the ultimate source of wisdom on the isle: the architect.
6362TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_022Now, my understandin' is that a summoner and their familiar are usually bound by an aetherial flow. D'ye reckon we can leverage that to reach the tower somehow?
6463TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_Q1_000_000What will you say?
6564TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_A1_000_001We ought to examine Iris more closely.
6665TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_A1_000_002Iris isn't the only familiar, is she?
6766TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_024
6867TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_025
6968TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_ARCHIVE_100_024To conduct a thorough examination, I'm afraid we would need to reduce Iris to pure aether... She might be a bothersome little scapegrace, but I wouldn't wish that upon her.
7069TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_ARCHIVE_100_025I suggest we find and examine another of the architect's familiars─preferably one we'd have no qualms with vanquishing.
7170TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_026I suppose she isn't...
7271TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_027We came across a fair few familiars while roamin' down south. None of them particularly pleasant, mind.
7372TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_ARCHIVE_000_028I'm sure the North Horn has its own fair share of summoned creatures. Inspecting the aether of any one of them could further our investigation.
7473TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_ARCHIVE_000_029I might add that the denser their aether, the more information we stand to glean. Of course, such familiars tend to be rather more formidable...
7574TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_ARCHIVE_000_030Come to think of it, when I passed through the forest during our previous excursion, I spotted a large winged creature with a crest of green feathers. Perhaps you could seek them out?
7675TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_ARCHIVE_100_030
7776TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_031I'm guessin' he means the wooded area north of the lake. Either way, sounds like a job for our resident fiend feller. Make sure ye hack off a chunk of them for us to examine, ye hear?
7877TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_SYSTEM_000_032The trophy of which Ketenramm speaks can be obtained from a specific critical encounter in the forest to the north of the lake.
7978TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_SYSTEM_000_033Speak with the expedition advisor should you wish to learn how to participate in critical encounters.
8079TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_035These big, dangerous fiends often control a swath of territory. Once yer there, it's just a matter of waitin' till they show up to hunt.
8180TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_ARCHIVE_000_040Don't forget to bring back a sample as Ketenramm requested. We shall need some physical remnant to examine the creature's aether, you see.
8281TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_IRIS_000_045There are countless familiars besides me on this isle...
8382TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_100Felled the fiend, did ye? Best show the Archive whatever grisly trophy ye lopped off the poor bugger.
8483TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_IRIS_000_105Pay me no heed.
8584TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_ARCHIVE_000_200Don't forget to bring back a sample as Ketenramm requested. We shall need some physical remnant to examine the creature's aether, you see.
8685TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_ARCHIVE_000_201Oh, what a handsome horn! Now, let us see what its aetheric signature reveals.
8786TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_ARCHIVE_000_202This trophy is wreathed in startlingly dense aether. The beast must have ranked highly among the architect's familiars. What was it doing when you found it?
8887TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_203The clearing was strewn with cages? I'd wager they were kidnappin' people and imprisonin' them in the forest.
8988TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_204That might explain why we never came across any survivors from those wrecks...
9089TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_ARCHIVE_000_205One thing is clear, though: the aether emanating from the horn bears a different signature to that of Iris.
9190TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_ARCHIVE_000_206I can't say for certain, but whoever called forth that creature didn't summon *her*.
9291TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_207Are ye suggestin' there's someone on the island besides the architect?
9392TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_KETENRAMM_000_208Or mayhap we're dealin' with multiple masters?
9493TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_IRIS_000_209What do you think?
9594TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_Q2_000_000What will you say?
9695TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_A2_000_001Perhaps stewardship of the isle changed hands?
9796TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_A2_000_002The architect may have...transformed in the intervening centuries.
9897TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_IRIS_000_211...!
9998TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_IRIS_000_212You already know this isle is home to knowledge most dangerous.
10099TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_IRIS_000_213I sense that you may be capable of taking that knowledge beyond these shores.
101100TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_IRIS_000_214Thus I ask you, what do you truly seek from your encounter with the architect?
102101TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_Q3_000_000What will you say?
103102TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_A3_000_001I wish to see the isle function as a museum once more.
104103TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_A3_000_002If he would use this knowledge indiscriminately, I intend to vanquish him.
105104TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_IRIS_000_216Just as I expected... I have learned much about you during my quiet vigil.
106105TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_IRIS_000_217In that case...
107106TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_IRIS_000_218Forgive me... I have chosen to help the adventurer, regardless of my orders.
108107TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_ARCHIVE_000_219What are you talking about? Why apologize to me?
109108TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_IRIS_000_220That head of yours really is devoid of all knowledge...
110109TEXT_KINGKD105_05515_IRIS_000_221Before you assumed your current guise, it was *you* who summoned me.
