'''Conrad:''' She took her bird and flew off towards the Peering Stones—the village of the M tribe, where she was born. | |||

They've sent an emissary. I'll take you to her. | |||
'''Lyse''' | '''Lyse:''' We're here to help. Will you tell us what happened? | ||
'''Vira Battlemaid''' | '''Vira Battlemaid:''' Aye, it began with a quarrel between the imperials and the Qalyana. | ||
''' | '''M'naago:''' The Qalyana are another Ananta tribe—the strongest and the most influential. | ||
'''M'naago:''' Unlike the Vira, they want no part of our troubles. They swore fealty to the Empire and were content to remain within their borders. | |||
'''Vira Battlemaid''': | '''Vira Battlemaid:''' Jussst ssso. The Qalyana forsssook their pride and the fight, and yielded to Garlemald long ago. | ||
'''Vira Battlemaid:''' But then a new commander was sssent to hold the black bridge. She demanded the Qalyana sssurrender a hossstage, thisss Butcher. | |||
''' | '''Lyse:''' Fordola. It doesn't make sense, though... The Vira are the ones working with the Resistance. Why would she threaten the Qalyana? | ||
'''Vira Battlemaid''' | '''Vira Battlemaid:''' Because she is ignorant, like all imperials. She knows not the difference between the Qalyana and the Vira, nor does she care to learn. | ||
''' | '''Alphinaud:''' I see. All Fordola knew for sure was that the Resistance would come from the west. She reasoned, therefore, that if the Ananta on the east bank turned their coats, she would be trapped. I take it the Qalyana had no choice but to oblige her. | ||
'''Vira Battlemaid''': | '''Vira Battlemaid:''' No, they did not. The imperials left with the Qalyana broodmother's own daughter, Anamika. | ||
'''Vira Battlemaid:''' Long days and nightsss she looked out on the black bridge, weeping for her child. Until you came. | |||
'''Vira Battlemaid:''' The broodmother knew at once which way the winds would blow. She and her warriors met with the fleeing imperials in the road and demanded that her daughter be returned. | |||
''' | '''Lyse:''' Bad idea... Fordola's not the kind to take threats lying down. | ||
'''Vira Battlemaid''' | '''Vira Battlemaid:''' You know her well. The Butcher turned her blade to Anamika and bade the Qalyana move aside. | ||

Dialogue
Accepting the Quest (Cutscene)
Conrad: I know you're not one for waiting, but if you'll bear with us—
Resistance Guard: Commander Kemp! Marshal Tarupin reports that their sweep of the castellum's interior has been completed!
Conrad: So it's finally over, eh? Pray extend to him my deepest thanks.
Alisaie: It's official, then. Castellum Velodyna is well and truly ours. Mayhap this calls for—Wait, where is M'naago?
Conrad: She took her bird and flew off towards the Peering Stones—the village of the M tribe, where she was born. Conrad: I doubt that the imperials who fled Velodyna had a mind to give them trouble on their way back east, but she was nevertheless worried, so I gave her leave to go and see that her people were safe.
Alphinaud: Though I pray you are right, 'twould be best if M'naago were not alone if she should encounter the enemy.
Lyse: Agreed! Let's all go to the Peering Stones and make sure that everything is all right.
Conrad: If that is your wish, then I've no objection. Just let the guard know when you wish to cross.
(Optional) Conrad: For now we need to take stock of our supplies, tend to our wounded, and so forth. We'll resume our march east soon enough, but not yet.
Speaking with the Ala Mhigan Resistance gate guard
Resistance Guard: Greetings, Scion. Do you wish to pass?
Optional
Arenvald: Did you say you were for the Peering Stones? In that case, mayhap Marshal Tarupin and I should join you. Arenvald: We spied a suspicious pair earlier—a Hyur and a Lalafell, by the looks of them—but they fled when they realized they'd been spotted. If they're imperials, then we can't have them stirring up trouble.
J'moldva: <sniff> <sniff> On your guard, Arenvald. They're still about...

Alphinaud: ...But of course. Tiring though it may be to come and go from the clifftop, it is easily defended and affords an excellent view of the surrounding area.
Alisaie: The area is home to dangerous beasts. Naught that we cannot handle, mind, but do not be surprised if something ravenous and salvering comes charging at you out of nowhere.
Speaking with Lyse
Lyse: The path to the village is through a tunnel just east of here. Follow me!
Optional
Alphinaud: Not just Seekers of the Sun, but Ananta? Mayhap there is a settlement nearby...
Alisaie: We may not have seen any imperial forces thus far, but we mustn't forget that this was occupied territory until very recently. They could still be nearby.
Lyse: Well, what do you think? Hard to tell from down below that a whole village is up here, isn't it?
Speaking with M'naago (Cutscene)
M'naago: Ah, you've come. Welcome, friends, to my village. My home.
Alphinaud: How fare your people?
M'naago: Good, all things considered. Better than the Ananta, at any rate... They've sent an emissary. I'll take you to her.
Lyse: We're here to help. Will you tell us what happened?
Vira Battlemaid: Aye, it began with a quarrel between the imperials and the Qalyana.
M'naago: The Qalyana are another Ananta tribe—the strongest and the most influential. M'naago: Unlike the Vira, they want no part of our troubles. They swore fealty to the Empire and were content to remain within their borders.
Vira Battlemaid: Jussst ssso. The Qalyana forsssook their pride and the fight, and yielded to Garlemald long ago. Vira Battlemaid: But then a new commander was sssent to hold the black bridge. She demanded the Qalyana sssurrender a hossstage, thisss Butcher.
