your character, this attack is going to hinge upon our ability to get through the Stronghold Corridor.

It is defended by the Stronghold Corridor Guards, who are well positioned to hold our advance almost indefinitely.

You and your allies are the only ones who will be able to break through their defenses. Can you handle that?

I knew they'd be desperate to hold that location.

Did you kill the Stronghold Corridor Guards? Otherwise our rear-guard will have trouble if they bring in reinforcements.

Then my worries were in vain.

Now that we've broken through their defenses though, it's time for the real assault to begin. The enemies inside the Stronghold are of a completely different caliber than what you've faced out here.

Be ready.

1. When the attack starts, kill the Stronghold Corridor Guards (/12).

2. Report to Sorus at Glorious Nexus.

Kill the forces defending the Stronghold Corridor.

Sorus said the Balaur will immediately counter when the attack starts, and asked you to kill the defenders.

You killed the forces defending the access route. Sorus congratulated you, but warned that this was merely the beginning.
