How'd you get here before us?

Don't even start. My heart's still pounding like a war drum!
All this trouble because of this blasted Full Moon Choppy of a lass!
Oh, Lafi, why are you always so quick to blame me?
Are you seriously trying to pin getting spotted by that weapon on me now?
Quiet, lass! If you hadn't gone there in the first place,
we wouldn't have had this mess, would we?

Quest Walkthrough
Step 1
Quest Text Egads! I wondered how we'd meet, but it seems fortune is on our side!
Nearly got myself trapped and died in there, I tell you!
Step 2
Objective How'd you get here before us?
Summary Don't even start. My heart's still pounding like a war drum!
All this trouble because of this blasted Full Moon Choppy of a lass!
Oh, Lafi, why are you always so quick to blame me?
Are you seriously trying to pin getting spotted by that weapon on me now?
Quiet, lass! If you hadn't gone there in the first place,
we wouldn't have had this mess, would we?
Step 3
She said you and Yaz might head this way,
told me to trust her gut. Well, I'll be damned.
Step 4
Objective Still... we're back together again.
Summary Ha! At least now we won't be meeting
an untimely death in some ridiculous place.
Lafi, are you going to keep being so petty? We managed to escape, didn't we?
How long are you going to grumble about it?
Ah, being shameless is a talent in itself, ain't it? Best I keep my mouth shut.
Huh? And who's this beside you?
Step 5
Never seen you before...
You also interested in the writings of the Ancients?
Step 6
Objective Explain the situation.
Summary An archaeologist studying the Dark Goddess, eh?
Hmm, well... that's a rather peculiar interest you've got there.
Lafi! How can you be so blunt with someone you've just met?
Ah-haha. Please forgive my rather noisy chatterbox of a colleague...
Oh, it's alright. No need to worry about it.
It's actually quite the common reaction, after all.
Step 7
Ahem. Hmm. How'd you manage to get in here?
Without knowing the coordinates, it must've been a challenge.
Step 8
Ah, through the songs of the bards,
I was tracing the clues of the Dark Goddess.
Step 9
When you go through those records and the Dark Goddess comes up,
could I get some help with the interpretation?
Step 10
Objective It'll be of great help.
Summary Sure, of course. By assisting you all, I believe
we can uncover some clear answers together.
The materials I have alone haven't been enough to pinpoint
the exact origin of the Dark Goddess religion.
Hey! Everyone! If you're done with the greetings, let's get moving!
I'm getting all antsy 'cause the record got cut off halfway!
Hey! Looks like the path continues over there.
Then I'll head out first! Try to keep up!
Hmm? Yaz? It's too dangerous to go alone!
Wait for me!
Step 11
Ahem. Well, it's not like I'm not stating the obvious.
Martha! Don't just stand there! Go chase after her!
Step 12
You know that archaeologist girl, right?
Step 13
Hmm...
Step 14
Objective What's with that look?
Summary That woman who showed up with you...
Aye, the more I think about it, the more something feels off.
Investigating the Dark Goddess religion, she said?
And a member of the... "Thornrose Society," was it?
Then, with just a handful of sources left,
she managed to track down Orzekea's location?
Step 15
That's a jaw-dropper if I've ever heard one.
If it's true, it'll turn the academic world upside down.
Step 16
Objective Wasn't planning on trusting her blind anyways.
Summary Well, I figured as much. You're not the type
to trust people so easily, no, not you.
Look at Martha over there, sharp as a tack,
sticking close and keeping an eye on things.
Step 17
Honestly, I'd be more at ease if she were a real scholar.
Researchers of the Dark Goddess are as rare as hen's teeth.
Step 18
Objective Everyone's waiting. Let's go.
Summary Let's do that. By the way, to think that
the Heart of Atomagia Illezra took was a fake...
Step 19
By now, that witch must be tearing through Orzekea
with her eyes wide open. This isn't the time to be taking it easy.
Step 20
Well, isn't that a pitiful sight?
It's the first time I've actually felt sorry for a weapon.
Step 21
By now, that witch must be tearing through Orzekea
with her eyes wide open. This isn't the time to be taking it easy.
