Excuse me! Excuse me, good Daeva! Can you take a look at this portrait here?

Have you ever seen anyone resembling the man in the portrait? Perhaps imagine him without the beard?

No? Please, think harder! Anything you can tell me would help.

His name is Svasuth. Perhaps you've heard of him? No? That's surprising; he's one of the most well-known bards in Asmodae.

I'm his chief attendant. He almost passed out at Apellbine Tavern a while ago and I had to drag...er, escort him home.

When I went to his room to check up on him the next morning, he and his suitcase were gone! He has a sort of wanderlust, you see.

I do. I went straight to Doman, the Teleporter, but he hadn't seen Master Svasuth. I searched every inch of Pandaemonium, but nothing.

Then a Shugo trader told me that he'd seen Master Svasuth headed for a battleship coming here to Gelkmaros. I came right here, of course.

But now I'm not sure what to do. I need to keep searching, but I'm only one man. Could you...help me out?

Thank you, thank you so much! I've actually gained some hope that I'll find Master Svasuth!

I heard someone named Notud could have information. You should start with him.

I'll keep asking around in the meantime. Please let me know if you find anything out!

Oh.... Well, I suppose you don't know him.... You have no obligation to help me.

Except compassion. I'm responsible for that man! It's my livelihood at stake here.

Ugh...I wonder if all this is worth the Kinah. Well, back to the search....

Used an Air Line lately? Wasn't it the smoothest flight you've ever taken, like you were being lifted by Aion himself?

I encourage you to tell me any and every impression you had of the trip.

I made 'em, you know, so I have to keep up on how they're running.

Svasuth? He's my favorite bard of all time! I'd recognize him anywhere! And yeah, he was here in Gelkmaros!

He actually talked to me! Me! He asked me if there were any waterfalls nearby, so I told him about Gelkmaros Falls.

He asked me to take him there, but I told him that the Air Line can't go there. He shrugged and took off. I actually met THE Svasuth!

Thank Aion you're back. I half expected you to take off and leave me in the lurch. Master Svasuth sure does.

But that was unfair of me. Did Notud tell you anything? Did he see the Master?

Gelkmaros Falls? He came all the way here for a waterfall? Why?! There are plenty in Asmodae!

He has a performance for High Priest Agehia in three days! Does he remember this? Does he know nothing of responsibility?!

Phew.... Sorry about that. I shouldn't burden you that way. I do thank you for finding this out. It is important, believe me.

1. Ask Notud about Svasuth.

2. Talk to Skilving.

Skilving's master, the bard Svasuth, has taken off suddenly. Ask Air Line Maintenance Soldier Notud if he ever saw Svasuth.

Skilving came to Gelkmaros to locate his master, the bard Svasuth, who left without warning.

He noted that Air Line Maintenance Soldier Notud might have seen Svasuth and asked you to question Notud for him.

When you told Skilving what Notud told you about Svasuth's whereabouts, he ranted for a while, but calmed down enough to thank you.
