Excuse me. A word?

Wh-whoa! Isn't that Qabal Bahram's seal?! Forgive me—
I didn't realize someone so "distinguished" was in our humble camp!
N-no, I mean—ha ha... I misspoke in my panic!
This damn tongue of mine, always running faster than my head!

Quest Walkthrough
Step 1
Quest Text Ah—come on now! I already discussed this with the Qabal!
What do you want me to do about it?
Step 2
Hey now, hold on tight and wait for us, Zeynep—yeah?
We'll make sure Imir comes back safe and sound!
Step 3
But, uh... what brings you all the way out here?
You don't look like you're here for any routine supply rations.
Step 4
Objective Excuse me. A word?
Summary Wh-whoa! Isn't that Qabal Bahram NPC Knowledge's seal?! Forgive me—
I didn't realize someone so "distinguished" was in our humble camp!
N-no, I mean—ha ha... I misspoke in my panic!
This damn tongue of mine, always running faster than my head!
Step 5
Objective I'll head to Tenebraum in his stead.
Summary What?! Aal be praised—if the Edana says so,
of course we'd be grateful! But... are you sure you'll be alright?
Wait... Are you "the" Edana?
The one who took on Aetherion alone?!
Exactly! Now, you can stop wringing your hands over your husband!
Go home! The baby's probably about to cry for milk any moment now!
So then... you're saying my husband will be safe?
He'll just handle supply logistics for the Sanctuary, and they'll pay him, right?
Step 6
Wha—hey! What's with that suspicious look?!
I didn't even organize this deployment in the first place, alright?!
Step 7
I swear, this job's gonna be the death of me.
Step 8
Truth is, there was a massive explosion in Tenebraum.
Most of the investigation team stationed there has gone missing.
Step 9
We don't usually resort to civilians, I swear.
But this time... Qabal Bahram NPC Knowledge gave the order—ah! That's, uh... classified!
Step 10
The thing is... the cause of the explosion is suspected to be
that black creature that follows you around, Edana.
Step 11
Objective Why so eager to send her away?
Summary Uh, right... she's gone now, yeah?
Please understand—this isn't something civilians should hear.
Step 12
Objective And... now you're recruiting civilians?
Summary Not sure if you're aware, but our unit's seriously short-staffed.
Until reinforcements arrive, we're holding things together by sheer grit.
Step 13
Objective ...What caused the explosion?
Summary There was one soldier who made it back with intel.
But... well, what he said was strange. I hesitate to even repeat it.
We've already decided to head there.
You need to tell us everything—leave nothing out.
*Sighs*... Guess I've already said too much anyway.
Fine, I'll spill the rest.
Step 14
Objective A Black Spirit NPC Knowledge caused it?
Summary Yes. But unlike with you, or the other so-called "failures,"
this one... seemed to be using a more refined form of power.
Step 15
Still, he was a sharp one—knew his stuff.
He's from Mediah, so he's seen his share of strange things.
Step 16
Aal bless your journey, then!
I'll be sure to report your movements to the Qabal right away!
