===To Arad===
{{EpicQuest2
|Level = 69
|NPC = [[Imperial Princess Erje]]
|Prerequisite = 
|Dungeon =
|Briefing = '''Erje:''' "The legend of the castle connected to Pandemonium... Not many people know about it these days. Everything related to the Sea of Twilight has been taboo since Apostle Bakal came from the other side of the sea a thousand years ago. But according to some royal documents, Bakal's appearance coincides with that of a strange castle on an isle on the Sea of Twilight, and he was originally from Pandemonium."

'''<Player>:''' "How can I get to the castle?"

'''Erje:''' "It's been said the castle appears and disappears randomly, and it is not accessible through any conventional method. It's suspected some powerful force is interfering with its materialization. But why do you want to go to Pandemonium?"

'''<Player>:''' "The Apostles and the Black Nightmare come from there. I want to stop them."

'''Erje:''' "First it was Apostle Bakal and now Anton who is causing my kingdom so much grief. I know the Underworld is suffering from the same problem. No more Apostles must be allowed entry to our world, or there will be more tragedies. What you want to do affects the safety of my kingdom. I'll look further into the castle, and see if I can help you get there."

'''<Player>:''' "Thank you. (This means I can't directly get to Pandeminum. Maybe I should go back to Arad for now. Marlene can help me with that.)"
|Objectives = 
Go to Marlene and say that you want to go back to Arad.
|Dungeon Dialogue =
|Upon Completion = '''Marlene:''' "You want to go back to the Underworld? Sure, I'll take you there."

'''<Player>:''' "By the way, what's this commotion?"

'''Marlene:''' "Ah, some members of the special squad that infiltrated the Kartel headquarters have been found and are on their way back home."

'''<Player>:''' "That's great! Is Maywin one of them?"

'''Marlene:''' "Yes, she's coming to Ghent as we speak. She's gravely injured, but... Don't beat yourself up. It's not your fault that they went missing during their mission. I'm not sure if she can stay in the army, but at least she's alive."

'''<Player>:''' "(I guided the squad, and I didn't know some of its members went missing afterward. A war between humans is terrible enough. I can't imagine what kind of damage the appearance of yet another Apostle can inflict on our world.)"

'''Marlene:''' "You want to go to Arad, right? Then please get ready. We'll take off soon."

'''<Player>:''' "Hartz? What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be with Vaughn?"

|Objectives = 
Talk to Hartz.
|Dungeon Dialogue =
|Upon Completion = '''Hartz:''' "You shouldn't follow someone just because he asks you to."

'''<Player>:''' "...Err? Aganzo!"

'''Aganzo:''' "Long time, no see. Did you come down from Empyrean because of the rumors about the epidemic?"

'''<Player>:''' "The epidemic? Do you mean the epidemic caused by Delezie's illusion?"

'''Aganzo:''' "No, this one is worse than that."

'''<Player>:''' "Worse than that? What is it?"

'''Aganzo:''' "Ask him. I just followed the rumors about it and got caught by this guy."

'''<Player>:''' "(Suddenly Hartz raises his hand and signals us to hide behind the wall. Aganzo and I hide, confused.)"

===An Imperial Officer===
{{EpicQuest2

|NPC = [[Hartz von Krueger]]
|Prerequisite = 
|Dungeon =
|Briefing = '''Hartz:''' "About time. What took you so long, Schuman?"

'''Schuman:''' "Watch it. Your father won't be able to hold onto his title for long. Your family is on the decline."

'''Hartz:''' "*Snort* I don't rely on my family to succeed. I'm not a boorish pig like you who hasn't achieved anything on his own."

'''Schuman:''' "Wha-what?!"

'''Hartz:''' "Shut it. I wasn't waiting for you, so just we could argue. How did the meeting with the Dark Elves go?"

'''Schuman:''' "You're not afraid of dying, but you're scared of being isolated in Empyrean, is that it? Don't worry. The Dark Elves act as if they're the noblest of all, but they're just as shady as everyone else. They'll send you reinforcements. I'm glad I don't have to like a peon. A watchdog that can't keep its own house safe can't possibly... (Hartz glares at Schuman. He shuts up and clears his throat nervously.) *Ahem* I can't leave my office for too long. People will get suspicious. I should go now."

'''Hartz:''' "Reshpon. What happened to those who were sent there?"

'''Schuman:''' "...None of them returned. Satisfied now?!"

'''Hartz:''' "*Chuckle* So your soldiers paid for your stupid plan, which you were so sure about, with their lives. Keep it up. You're never going to beat Vaughn Walshuted whom you so hate."

'''<Player>:''' "(An Apostle? Has an Apostle appeared?!)"

'''Hartz:''' "Now get lost. I can't stand the sight of you flaunting a toy sword and acting like a general."

'''Schuman:''' "Grr... Damn it! One of these days I'll kill all of you Knights!"

'''Hartz:''' "You idiot, that's not how you threaten someone. Get lost before I kill you."

'''Schuman:''' "Grr... Ack!"

'''Hartz:''' "He sure runs faster than anyone I know. No wonder he was called Gust in the old days."
|Objectives = 
Ask Hartz about the conversation that just took place.
|Dungeon Dialogue =
|Upon Completion = '''Hartz:''' "You know what you heard. Now leave."

'''<Player>:''' "But I'm confused. Does this mean an Apostle has appeared in Arad?"

'''Hartz:''' "Sigh..."

'''Aganzo:''' "Have the Dark Elves agreed to help your army in exchange for its help to eliminate an Apostle that appeared in Reshpon?"

'''Hartz:''' "That's better. The fortuneteller predicted the appearance of an Apostle, remember? Some blockheads believed in her prophecy and searched everywhere and discovered an Apostle hiding out in a small city. It was Apostle Delezie. The real Delezie, not the illusion you fought, has been in Reshpon all this time. Adventurer, you really need to work on your thoroughness when you work."

'''<Player>:''' "What? I barely beat the illusion that spread the terrible epidemic throughout Noire Ferra, and that means the real one is almost indestructible. Can your army subjugate the Apostle?"

'''Hartz:''' "You heard none of the soldiers sent there came back alive, though they were just a bunch of weaklings sent to die. Send another bunch of weaklings, and they'll probably run with their tails between their legs."

'''Aganzo:''' "This is grave. Delezie is also known as the Apostle of Ten Thousand Diseases. He's in Reshpon, which means Meltdown, the Sewer, and even Underfoot are not safe from his influence."

'''<Player>:''' "The Sewer?! I know some people living there!"

'''Hartz:''' "Stop panicking and decide if you want to run or stay."

'''Aganzo:''' "Let's talk to Iris first. She should know something about this."

===Reshipon, Village of Pain===
{{EpicQuest2
|Level = 69
|NPC = [[Iris]]
|Prerequisite = 
|Dungeon = [[Reshpon, Village of Pain]]
|Briefing = '''Iris:''' "Sir Aganzo. Adventurer. I've been waiting for you. News from a far place is that an Apostle is spreading a nightmarish epidemic with the winds. I understand you want to defeat Delezie and save people, but you're not equipped to fight him. Apostle Delezie is from another dimension. His germ-ridden body releases terrible diseases that infect and decay everything around him. There's no cure for the disease that Delezie carries. You will melt into a puddle of gore if you go unprepared."

'''<Player>:''' "Then what do we do? We can't let the epidemic by Delezie get past Meltdown and spread to the Sewer."

'''Iris:''' "I'll help you. Sir Aganzo. Adventurer. Please stay still."

'''<Player>:''' "(I feel something warm and comforting surrouding me. What is it?)"

'''Iris:''' "I've just cast Hilder's protection on you."

'''<Player>:''' "Hilder? She's another Apostle--why would she help us?"

'''Iris:''' "Not all the Apostles are evil. Hilder wants to eliminate the harmful Apostles and help us maintain peace. I'll explain again later. Please hurry and go to Reshpon."
|Objectives = 
Explore Reshpon, Village of Pain (in Meltdown).
|Dungeon Dialogue =
<u>'''Upon entering the Dungeon:'''</u>

'''<Player>:''' "The poison in the air... It's worse than it was in Noire Ferra. Are they... knights of the Empire? They're unrecognizable!"

'''Aganzo:''' "This is grave. Let's make a quick tour around the place."

<u>'''Upon entering Delezie, Plagued Apostle:'''</u>

'''<Player>:''' "Ah, that's...? Is it Delezie himself?!"

'''Aganzo:''' "He showed up more quickly than I thought. We're not ready to fight him. Let's run for now."
|Upon Completion = '''Iris:''' "Welcome back. How's the situation in Reshpon? Apostle Delezie. He has sunken his germ-ridden teeth into Arad."

'''<Player>:''' "We saw what once were the knights of the Empire. They were unrecognizable."

'''Iris:''' "Delezie has the power of ten thousand diseases that could even reanimate the dead."

'''<Player>:''' "(That means it was Delezie, not the Black Nightmare, that raised the dead from their graves. A wicked disease that reanimates the dead. And Apostle Delezie controls it.)"

===Duke Agonis===
{{EpicQuest2
|Level = 69
|NPC = [[Iris]]
|Prerequisite = 
|Dungeon = [[Reshpon, Village of Pain]]
|Briefing = '''Iris:''' "Adventurer, haven't you encountered a shapeless demon in that place? He does wherever Delezie goes. You haven't met him. The demon is invisible to the eye, but makes anyone who gets close to him feel nauseated. He's Duke Agonis, a demon that came to our world with Delezie. Hilder sensed that they both presented a danger, and offered to give the stronger of the two the title of "Apostle." The two had similar energy, but Agonis was not strong enough to become an Apostle. Hilder pitted them against each other to weaken both of them. Agonis fought tooth and nail, but in the end he lost and submitted to Delezie."

'''<Player>:''' "Are you saying Hilder made Delezie an Apostle? Is she the leader of the Apostles?"

'''Iris:''' "No. The Apostles do not interfere with each other's business, and they have no concept of leadership. To become an Apostle, however, one needs acknowledgment of another. Hilder knew both Delezie and Agonis could destroy everything around them without qualms if they could become an Apostle. She just had to choose the lesser of two evils."

'''Aganzo:''' "Then Agonis could try to overthrow Delezie."

'''Iris:''' "He could, but in the meantime he could also help Delezie, to get you two out of the way. You should eliminate Duke Agonis before you confront Delezie."
|Objectives = 
Eliminate Duke Agonis in Reshpon, Village of Pain.

'''Duke Agonis:''' "I see. You're the Human that woman told me about. Ah, finally the day has come. I may be destined to die today, but I'm not going to die without a fight. For centuries, I've waited for this day. By fighting you, I'll become a part of the history of this world. I only regret that I could no longer protect Delezie. Mortal, you should know that you're just another pawn to that treacherous woman."

<u>'''Upon defeating Duke Agonis:'''</u>

'''Duke Agonis:''' "Delezie..."

'''<Player>:''' "Did he mean I'm being played?"

|Upon Completion = '''Iris:''' "I can't believe he said that as he was dying. He was just trying to drive a wedge 

between us."

===Apostle Delezie===
{{EpicQuest2
|Level = 69
|NPC = [[Zanbato Aganzo]]
|Prerequisite = 
|Dungeon = [[Reshpon, Village of Pain]]
|Briefing = '''Aganzo:''' "Now that we're here, I have to ask. I've been researching into the Apostles on my own, and what I know seems to conflict with what you know. Let me ask: what are the Apostles?"

'''Iris:''' "The Apostles are powerful entities who can cause harm to everything around them just by existing. But not all the Apostles are evil. Hilder, for example, hates evil Apostles like Delezie and Lotus. But the Apostles are not allowed to kill or even hurt each other. That's why Hilder sent me to help you with your cause."

'''Aganzo:''' "You're from Pandemonium. Why help Arad?"

'''Iris:''' "...I'll guess I'll have to be honest now. Killing the Apostles will save my hometown, Pandemonium. As you know, Arad is suffering from strange phenomena--the Ghost Arm, interdimensional rifts, the Black Nightmare--because of Apostles."

'''Aganzo:''' "..."

'''Iris:''' "Things are worse for Pandemonium. There, nothing can survive long enough to thrive, because of the Apostles. I tried to save my world, but to no avail. Then one day I met Hilder by accident and learned when an Apostle dies, a little bit of life force is restored to Pandemonium. And she sent me to this world to stop Apostles who wold come here in search of new powers, to stop them from draining the life of this world, just as they did to Pandemonium. Now can you believe me?"

'''<Player>:''' "No talk is necessary. The Apostles cause harm wherever they go. I don't want to lose any more people that I know. I think Hartz doesn't want that too. He told me about the rumors because he didn't want more of his soldiers to die, like Lenny."

'''Aganzo:''' "I see. Then I'll help you."

'''Iris:''' "Because of you, peace will be soon restored to Arad and Pandemonium. Please eliminate Delezie and come back safely. May Hilder's protection give you strength and courage you need."

Eliminate Delezie, Plagued Apostle in Reshpon, Village of Pain.

<u>'''Upon encountering Delezie, Plagued Apostle:'''</u>

'''<Player>:''' "The air is thick with poison... I can hardly breathe..."

'''Delezie:''' "Who else has come to die?"

'''<Player>:''' "Apostle Delezie!"

'''Delezie:''' "You know who I am, and you still came. I don't understand you. Ah... Are you Hilder's errand runner? That explains how you've come this far without dropping dead. Hilder is helping you. But even Hilder's protection cannot protect you against the ten thousand diseases I command. You're already dying from their effects. Do you think you can even touch me?"

'''<Player>:''' "If I can't run, then I'll die fighting!"

<u>'''Upon defeating Delezie, Plagued Apostle:'''</u>

'''<Player>:''' "H-he can't be killed... but how?!"

'''Delezie:''' "No, I can't be killed. Didn't you know? Your ignorance will cost you your life. Despair!"

'''<Player>:''' "N-no...! What do I do? Ah? That!"

'''Delezie:''' "I-interdimensional Rift?! Hah hah, clever. I can't be killed, so you're going to throw me into warped spacetime and tear me into pieces. Hilder, you're impressive. You've successfully gotten rid of me without even moving a finger. But not everything will go as you plan. Remember, lowly creature. This is your world, but Pandemonium belongs to us Apostles...!"

|Upon Completion = '''Iris:''' "The biggest problem for the Arad Continent has been solved. Good job. I can see fresh breezes are blowing and new buds are coming out of the groudn in Pandemonium. But everything is not over yet. It's time you leave for Pandemonium, to defeat the Apostles there and achieve true peace. I'll be with you every step of the way. Once again, good job today."
