Have you been in the Abyss long? No, I'm not flirting with you, I just want to point out what you must have noticed already--war is a matter of logistics.

The side equipped with better weapons and armor has the advantage.

And the side that can continually improve those weapons has absolute advantage over the other.

Aether is essential to making good weapons and armor even better, but Aether is rare in Atreia.

The Abyss is replete with Aether. How are you at Aethertapping?

What we need is an Greater Aether Gem. It's rare, but can be obtained from Shining Vortexes.

I'm glad to have your help. Supplying the fighters is as important as fighting.

Greater Aether Gems can be extracted from Shining Vortexes.

Shining Vortex is everywhere, but the Greater Aether Gem is tough to extract from it.

The supplies you bring me will speed Asmodae's victory.

Naive young Daevas think only of combat and the now.

Veteran Daevas know the importance of the chain of supplies and of patience.

I hope one day you will understand.

I'm running out of Greater Aether Gem. I've been waiting for you, your character.

I hope you didn't come back empty-handed.

Weren't you going to get me some Greater Aether Gem?

Remember, your character, a Greater Aether Gem is not easy to get, but very important for improving our equipment.

Don't give up now!

Thank you so much, your character. Now, Thunder Shout Legionaries will have much better weapons.

Patience is an excellent virtue in a Daeva and a fighter.
