Hey, hey! Shoo! Scram!

Oh, ah...hello!

I wasn't shouting at you, your character, just the blasted Drakes.

Because they're terrible pests, that's why!

As the land's dried out, they've congregated near every source of water, growing bold and taking what they want. Even the spring's not safe. If I turn back to my studies for even a moment...

I fenced them out, but with their strength they'll easily tear through soon.

I am tempted, believe me. But I am...not a warrior, really.

You're an experienced your class. Couldn't you help me?

It's just the ones that hover around the Mystic Spring.

Yes, just kill six Wasteland Drakes and 4 Fierce Drakes.

That should scare away the rest.

Yes, yes, I suppose you're much in demand!

Just have to think of another solution.

Poisoned Gorgon meat, perhaps....

Hope that's not your blood!

Those creatures' bills are quite sharp, and often the wounds fester.

Ah, yes! The noise has already abated.

I did well asking you, dear your character.

Though I fear I've forgotten something.

1. Remove Drakes from around the Laquepin Mystic Spring.

   Wasteland Drake (/6)

   Fierce Drake (/4)

2. Talk with Esaias.

Clear away Drakes so Esaias can study the tainted Mystic Spring in peace.

Drakes fleeing the desert are depleting the water of the Mystic Spring, and Esaias is too busy battling them to do his work.

Since Daevas of Life are poor in combat, you drove off the Drakes for him.
