My role in this world is to ensure the forests of Elysea are kept safe from harm. Unfortunately, our presence here has done little to prevent Eltnen's shocking desertification.

Look around, your character. This arid desert was once a green paradise... and now there are only a few trees left, surrounded by an ocean of dust and sand.

It's all so overwhelming....

Most of the Elims have left this area for greener pastures, but some are staying to help our conservation efforts. They want to try and preserve their homes and perhaps, one day, restore the area enough so that future generations may once again live in peace.

All is not well, though. It seems the Elims have some problems.

Hmm. Yes, yes perhaps you can. Those who remained behind need to be convinced to leave. Their work is hopeless, and I will not have them die here pointlessly.

Very well, I will leave you to speak with the Elim. The one who is looking for assistance is named Demro.

Go and speak with him. Find out what the Elim want, and try to dissuade them. Help them move on. Faith and arms, your class.

This blight weighs heavy on us all.

The Elim will be reassured to know you're coming.

No? That's regrettable.

When your home is withering away into the sand, perhaps you'll feel differently.

Daeva....

I will... not leave.... Trees... still remain... here.... They need... my support....

I can... not... desert them....

Too... slow.... What... can... this old... Elim do....?

Ruler... in danger.... Too rooted... in old... ways....

Find... Kerubian Bucket... in Kerubians' den....

Deliver... Kerubian Fresh Water Bucket... to Lord of... Forest....

Daeva....

Thirst... I... would drink... if there were... something to drink....

My... thanks... small one....

Other... Elim... go to... swamp.... I... cannot....

A leader... cannot... abandon... their people.... No matter... how few... remain....

1. Talk with Demro in the Manduri Forest.

2. Obtain a bucket from Kerubian Bucket in Putrid Mire and take it to Lodas in the Eiron Desert.

   Kerubian Fresh Water Bucket

Talk with the Elim who seeks help with the desertification of Eltnen.

You listened to Demro's story. He asked you to persuade Lodas, the ruler of the forest, to leave the desert.

When you delivered the clean, uncontaminated water to Lodas, he thanked you but said that he is the ruler of the forest and will protect the forest until the very end.
