You must have heard of what happened in the Vagabatam Sealing Tower and the Temple of Red Earth.

I couldn't believe it at first.

How could prisoners locked up in a cell disappear? I suspected the guards made a mistake or fell asleep.

But while I've been here, Balaur prisoners disappeared again. And there was no trace of a breakout.

Although we've increased our surveillance, Balaur prisoners continue to disappear.

We disguised our men as Balaurs and put them in prison, then cast a trace spell on all the prisoners. Neither have yielded any answers.

Unexpectedly, a Yun tribesman came to us. He introduced himself as from Araka, and said that he could tell us where Balaur Prisoners went.

Yes, that's correct. Who could ever imagine such a thing was hidden inside the fortress?

This is all we have now. I was going to start investigating after reporting Centurion Dmytro, but I think instead we'd better start right now.

Will you help me with this?

Good luck tracking down the prisoners.

Nepion is the name of the Yun tribesman.

He said he would wait inside. You'll find him if you enter here.

I'm not sure how dangerous the place will be, so make sure to go with some allies.

I thought you came here to help me.

Well that's why I told you all that... I'll have to report to the centurion first.

Please disregard everything I said.

Don't sneak up on me like that!

Were you sent by the Pandemonium Expeditionary Force? (Tilting his head) You don't look familiar...

Eh, I'll satisfy your curiosity anyway.

This place is called Araka. It's famous for producing the most Drana.

The Balaur Prisoners in the fortress must have moved to a Balaur stronghold inside Araka.

If you want to know about the place, you'd better take a look at this Image Marble.

Unfortunately, The security was so tight that I couldn't capture any more images.

I want you to check the place out, your character.

You'll find a cliff a bit further ahead. My colleagues will be waiting for you there. They'll open the Wind Road to take you to the Narayama Canyon.

Oh, when you finish your mission, give the Image Marble to your superior. It will help in investigating Araka.

Alright, then. Take care.

Ah, your character! The inspector told me what happened.

What was his name? Nepion? I heard you went down the Secret Passage to meet the Yun tribesman. Have you met him?

You must have found something there. Otherwise, you wouldn't be here now.

This is more than I expected!

Why is the fortress is connected to such a place...

I have to report this to my superiors immediately. If he sees the Image Marble, Centurion Dmytro will believe me.

1. Go into Esoterrace and find Nepion.

2. Scout the inside of Drana Production Lab.

3. Deliver Nepion's Image Marble to Luigir.

The location of the Secret Passage is discovered thanks to Nepion, a Yun tribesman from Araka. Enter the Secret Passage and meet Nepion.

The Pandaemonium Expeditionary Force Inspector said that no leads have been found regarding the disappearing prisoners.

But thanks to the help of an Araka Yun tribesman named Nepion, she found the entrance to the Secret Passage.

She asked you to meet with Nepion and investigate Araka beyond the passage.

You met Nepion inside the passage and delivered the Image Marble he gave you to Luigir.
