Demon Hunters

I was told that I could trust you... At least I think it was you. The free trade mercenaries said that you helped to break through the Cordon, right?

Maybe you've already heard of the demons that were spotted on Asee-Teph and Eljune? Demons are still a matter of myth in these parts, but it's only a matter of time until people see what's going on. The artifacts that everyone loves to collect emit darkness, and that is sure to have attracted some demons.

That's why a hunting expedition has come to the Holy Land. We made camp outside of Husk Isle, near one of the anomalies, and set demon detectors in the other three. The detectors are magical devices created by Zem masters from before the Great Astral Campaign, when the whole world was battling those wretches. Nowadays, we're the only ones who still use them, since everybody thinks that demons are a thing of the past. Personally, I don't know about that...

Pascal, the leader of our expedition, has sent me to go take the readings... But I can't leave the inn at the moment - a Hunter named Alexey Luzhin sends word of a demon encounter in the Tekyan Thicket of Asee-Teph. A very strange demon, too, one that could survive outside the Astral for a long period of time! Alexey thinks the beast was a new breed of demon and if that's true... Well, then this is very alarming news. I must stay here and wait for Fielder's return. But at the same time, Pascal is awaiting my return.

This is where I ask you for help. If you plan on traveling beyond the Cordon, could you please find the three detectors, take their readings, and bring them to Pascal's camp outside of Husk Isle.

I hope that you don't bear any silly prejudice against us and that you will agree to lend a helping hand.

Detector readings? I've been waiting on those for quite some time now.

What's wrong with Anastasia? Is she still alive?
