I really wish I had the time to go on this mission. It sounds like fun....

A special mission in Elysea. I was asked to bring back a piece of a Caryatid.

Apparently there was once an artifact surrounded by Caryatids. It disappeared--we're not sure why--and then the Caryatids went insane, attacking everything.

Some scholars wanted a piece of one for research to find out what makes them violent.

I have so many other missions to take care of.... You could help, though couldn't you?

It sounds like a good vacation and maybe you'd get to kill a few Elyos on the way.

I know you'll enjoy this mission. You can find the Ancient Caryatids around the Outpost Ruins, in the region called Eltnen.

Get a piece of one, and bring it to Phosphor at the Temple of Knowledge in Pandaemonium.

May Azphel's shadow guide you in that sunburnt land.

Oh, you're too busy as well?

A shame.

You don't look like much of a scholar. What brings you to the Temple of Knowledge?

This is nothing I need.... Wait, were you supposed to bring a Caryatid piece?

This is magnificent!

It should prove quite interesting to analyze. I can hardly wait....

1. Obtain Caryatid Piece and take it to Phosphor.

   Caryatid Piece x6

A scholar wants to study a piece of a Caryatid from Elysea. Go to Outpost Ruins and get the Caryatid piece.

Hakon was ordered to get a Caryatid Piece from Elysea, but he was too busy to go.

You went to the Outpost Ruins in Eltnen to get the Caryatid Piece, and took it to Phosphor in the Temple of Knowledge in Pandaemonium.
