When I first became a Guardian, I had this great buddy, Zinas.

We did everything together. Guard duty, volunteer work, double-dating, you name it. Those were the days!

But he got reassigned to Agairon Village, and I was assigned here. Don't get me wrong, this is a prime assignment, but I miss hanging out with Zinas.

Yeah, we had a lot of laughs.... Say, you wouldn't by chance be planning to pass by Agairon Village anytime soon, would you?

If you are, could pass on a message to Zinas?

If he can get his armored-rear up to the fortress for an evening, dinner's on me.

Sweet! Thanks, your character. It's not every Daeva you can ask to run a personal errand for you. I appreciate it.

Just tell Zinas to come on up to the fortress whenever he can find the time. If he can't find me, have him ask Pallas where I am. He always knows where everyone is.

No problem. I always feel awkward asking Daevas to run personal errands, but the postal system here is abysmal.

Do you think it's possible to will yourself to ascend? Sometimes I think if I could just... No. It's impossible.

When I was young, I was a fencing prodigy and everyone just KNEW I'd ascend and take Atreia by storm.

Yeah...didn't happen. Disappointing, but hey, that's life, huh? Anyway, what brings you here?

Dalanius! He's the only one who never gave a rip if I ascended or not. What a blast we had in basic training!

He's offering to pay for dinner? That's a new one. Back in our heyday, he was always totally broke. Spent everything on pets and armor.

If he's buying, I can't miss it! If I can clear all of my tasks for the day, I'll head up there this evening and surprise him.

You will? Fantastic! I appreciate your help.

If you could head down to the Mystic Spring and thin out the Grassland Rynoce and Mottled Tipolid ranks, I can get things wrapped up in town and see if Zellix will cover for me.

Whoa, you're back fast, Daeva.

What happened with the Grassland Rynoces and Mottled Tipolids?

Did they give you any troubles?

Yeah, I figured they wouldn't overly stress your skills.

I've got everything under control here, so I'm off to surprise Dalanius.

Thanks for your help! Oh, here, I picked this up in town for you. Thanks again!

1. Deliver Dalanius' message to Zinas.

2. Hunt down the Rynoces and Tipolids around the Mystic Spring of Agairon.

   Grassland Rynoce(/4)

   Mottled Tipolid(/6)

3. Talk with Zinas.

Take a message from Dalanius to Zinas. Help Zinas out if he needs it.

Dalanius asked you to deliver a dinner invitation to his old friend Zinas. You did so.

Zinas asked you to give him a hand clearing his task list by hunting down wild beasts around the Mystic Spring. You did, and he was able to wrap his day up early and head to the fortress for dinner.
