That's something, isn't it? But above all, you ventured there unscathed and returned safely— that is the true relief. Be vigilant. Whoever you face henceforth, prioritize your safety at all times, understood? ### Step 5 - **Objective**: Nothing dangerous happened, right? - **Summary**: Oh my—worrying about me now? I'm so touched I could shed tears. Is this on account of what happened earlier? Fearful that I, the Lady of House Encarotia, might grow careless? It's solely because I place my trust in you. Sometimes bold, sometimes cautious—that balance is, after all, a merchant's fundamental virtue. Rest assured. ### Step 6 - **Reward**: Most think I've got some hidden agenda, so it is not easy for me to earn their honesty. ### Step 7 - **Objective**: Report your findings. - **Summary**: So, that is what you learned? I knew you would not disappoint. Thanks to you, I see the truth more clearly. Thinking back to when we first met in Serendia... you have grown much. Hm? What am I saying... Ah, only a bit of nostalgia, I suppose. You look ready to take on greater burdens now. ### Step 8 - **Reward**: Lady Isobelle. Are you sure you're alright? If the councilor finds out, you'll be in trouble. ### Step 9 - **Reward**: Oh...! You're the one they call the Hero of Calpheon...! I heard of your exploits with the Xian Merchant Guild. ### Step 10 - **Reward**: Oh, and I have procured some medical supplies from Keplan. They should prove most useful to the injured here. ### Step 11 - **Objective**: What were you talking about? - **Summary**: Ah. This is Sophia Edelweiss. A dependable Valkyrie of Calpheon. I'm Sophia Edelweiss, Valkyrie of Calpheon. It's a pleasure to meet you. May Elion's blessings be with you. ### Step 12 - **Objective**: What were you talking about? - **Summary**: Ah. This is Sophia Edelweiss. A dependable Valkyrie of Calpheon. I'm Sophia Edelweiss, Valkyrie of Calpheon. This may be our first meeting, but you seem quite familiar. ### Step 13 - **Reward**: But ever since that investigation with the Society of Equilibrium, she keeps insisting I return to Calpheon. Can you believe it? ### Step 14 - **Objective**: Why? - **Summary**: I'm but a merchant, so honestly, I have no idea what she's talking about. Could you hear her out and see what she means? I recently returned from southern Edania, from a place called Orbita. There, a massive wave of holy energy was detected. In this barren land, where you can barely find a single blade of grass, such powerful holy power... it must be artificial. ### Step 15 - **Reward**: So, she claims this place is simply too dangerous and is determined to send me back—even with you here. ### Step 16 - **Objective**: Definitely strange. I'll check it out myself. - **Summary**: I knew it. There's no one like our Branch Head. See? You've witnessed how much they care for me. Even with the Hero of Calpheon by your side, you're still a civilian, Councilor. It doesn't change the fact that this place is dangerous. You should hurry back to Calpheon. Then you should see for yourself. Watch how the Branch Head handles matters. ### Step 17 - **Reward**: *Sigh* I don't think I can convince you anymore, milady. A brief word before you head out? ### Step 18 - **Objective**: I'll take my leave. - **Summary**: Take care of yourself, all right? As always—should you be harmed, I will be heartbroken. ### Step 19 - **Reward**: Isobelle, are you really sure it's okay? Hm? You're not going to rat me out to uncle later, right? ### Step 20 - **Reward**: Huh?! Are you Adventurer? The Hero of Calpheon? Oh, right! I heard you were working with Isobelle! ### Step 21 - **Objective**: What were you talking about? - **Summary**: Oh, this is my cousin Nella Encarotia. She's also an apprentice Valkyrie at the Holy College of Calpheon. It's an honor to meet you! I'm really a big fan! To think the Hero of Calpheon is my Valkyrie senior! ### Step 22 - **Objective**: Why? - **Summary**: I'm but a merchant, so honestly, I have no idea what she's talking about. Could you hear her out and see what she means? I went down to Orbita in southern Edania. And there, a massive wave of holy energy was detected! You know this place is a barren land with not a single blade of grass. So this level of holy power... It's impossible! ### Step 23 - **Objective**: Definitely strange. I'll check it out myself. - **Summary**: I knew it. There's no one like our Branch Head. See? You've witnessed how much they care for me. Even with the Hero of Calpheon here, you're still a civilian out here, you know! No way! I don't wanna face uncle's wrath! If for any reason you die, it better be in Calpheon! Then you should see for yourself. Watch how the Branch Head handles matters. ### Step 24 - **Reward**: Ugh, that's House Encarotia for you... *Sigh* A brief word, before you leave?
