On the of the Gods' Trail

Meet Aristarchus Palubin at the Nezebgrad port.

Finally. I'm not going to beat around the bush - we are starting a research expedition, and I want you in it. I think you know why. Our scouts report that the Astral storm on the site of the greatest battle in the history of Sarnaut has finally eased off. We know the League is sending their ships there, too.
I don't know what they will find there. Maybe nothing, and maybe a legacy of the gods that can decide the outcome of our war. And I'm not going to take risks.
The ships are ready to depart, so hurry up. Remember - the Empire counts on you!

Greetings!

Good day, officer! Our crew is ready for departure, but there is one thing...
