Azphelumbra, Daeva. You know, the ways of Soul Healing never fail to fascinate me. Did you know Soul Healing does not work on those who are left after their body is destroyed?

Don't you find it strange? We can heal souls, but not without a body.

Soul Healers know the reason for that, of course. Our body and soul are parts of a whole, not merely pieces.

As an example, there is a poor spirit hovering about the Anair Lighthouse. He's an Archon named Valconor, whose mission was guarding the lighthouse.

Even at death, however, he still cannot forsake his duty and rest in peace. Someone must persuade him to return to the flow of Aether.

Too true, Daeva, too true. Please persuade Valconor to set aside his mortal concerns.

Tell him that there is no need to light the lighthouse anymore since the harbor has frozen over, and that he may rest now.

A number of people tried to convince Valconor in the past. Alas, he hangs onto his duty like a Shugo to a shiny coin.

As more time passes, his soul will become more and more impoverished. A soul without a body attenuates and suffers much misery.

Do try to convince him to return to the flow of Aether, Daeva.

It is a pity that you decline this task. I grant you the difficulty involved but I chose you for a reason.

Were I to send another, the exchange might well turn to confrontation.

Very well, your class. I will seek out another.

Oh, wonderful. Another fleshling here to cheer me along to blissful oblivion.

Has it occurred to you that I'm not doing this for my health, so to speak? I gave my life to guard this lighthouse.

I cannot leave simply because I'm miserable. I still value honor, Daeva.

I have no desire to return to the flow of Aether nor will I simply abandon this place.

Tell that meddler, Karabe, there is no need to worry. The very sense of duty that keeps me here also keeps me pure.

You have gone through some trouble to come this far, but even so...GO AWAY!

1. Persuade Valconor.

Persuade Valconor, a lighthouse keeper, to return to the flow of Aether.

Soul Healer Karabe said Valconor, a lighthouse keeper, is still guarding the lighthouse after death and asked you to persuade him to return to the flow of Aether.

You tried to convince Valconor as Karabe asked, but he refused rather eloquently and forcefully.
