Knight Class/Frogzard/Level 7

One of the Knight Class' optional eighth quests and Advanced Frogzard Knight Class Training's second quest, where you learn the skill First Aid with Cerin.

Dialogue

Cerin: Your first assignment has gone well, but do not rest easily just yet.
Cerin: I have already prepared a new assignment for you. This one will send you deep into Stormfallen territory.
Cerin: Since you will be estranged from our assistance, this may be a good time to teach you basic First Aid.

• I'm ready!
• I need more time to think about this. - (Returns you to the Knight menu.)

If you chose the "I'm ready" option:
Cerin: Excellent! I hope you remembered to bring your Frogzard Knight armor.

You equip the temporary Frogzard Knight Armor and meet with Cerin on Deren's practice grounds.

Cerin: Your mission is of the utmost importance, «You».
«You»: What is it, sir?
Cerin: Previously in your training, you encountered some Demon Knights experimenting with corruption magic, am I correct?
«You»: How did you....
Cerin: It is unimportant as to how. What matters at this point is that I believe these knights were not acting under the authority of their queen.
«You»: Sir?
Cerin: What I am about to tell you is classified information, known only to my most trusted operatives within the order.
Cerin: It is the belief of King Tralin, and of myself, that the war against Stormfallen is being fought under false pretenses.
Cerin: It has long been perpetuated that Stormfallen started the conflict, yet ancient historical texts suggest that this is not the case.
«You»: Then what actually happened?
Cerin: It is said that a war between demons and humans many years ago sparked an event in which a portion of the Western Expanse was obliterated.
Cerin: The event led to a distrust of mages at the time, and especially of demons. It is believed arrived shortly after this event, so her arrival was ill-timed.
Cerin: My king believes that the Paladin Order mistakenly marked Tyranna and her followers as another invasion force from Heck.
Cerin: If this were the case, then Rennd would have followed suit. And Rennd was among the most influential kingdoms at the time.
«You»: But what does the Paladin Order have to gain from this?
Cerin: It's uncertain if their intentions are malicious or not, but Rennd seemed too eager to make Tyranna into a threat, and I suspect that is why she became one.
Cerin: The war that followed destroyed virtually all of the West.
Cerin: The devastation dwarfed even the first such cataclysm. If this war was, in fact, the result of human manipulation... then thousands have died for nothing.
«You»: So we're seeking to prove the truth behind this war. Very well. What must I do?
Cerin: In order to confirm my king's hypothesis, we need evidence that the conflict is being exaggerated.
Cerin: I want you to venture into Stormfallen territory and investigate some of the villages that have fallen to Stormfallen's legions.
Cerin: I also want you to further investigate the corruption magic. I have a feeling that Tyranna does not endorse it.... in fact, I suspect she isn't even aware of it.
Cerin: I have identified one particular legion which I believe has crafted this demon magic in secret. They may be followers of Stragath who wish to see Tyranna fall.
Cerin: If that is the case, it means that much of the case against Stormfallen is a finely-crafted lie perpetuated by outside forces.
«You»: I will investigate immediately!
Cerin: Excellent. Since you are headed into hostile territory, you will be in danger and aid cannot reach you.
Cerin: I have prepared a First-Aid Kit for you. It is full of herbal remedies that do wonders for healing injuries, illnesses and ailments.
Cerin: If you return successfully, I will teach you how to craft a First-Aid Kit of your own.

«Scene: Near Stormfallen»

«You»: (thought) Cerin told me that there was a village near this area which fell recently to the demons.
«You»: (thought) Reports from Rennd suggest that the villages were forcibly relocated and have been used as slave labor.
«You»: (thought) I hope Cerin is right.... for the sake of those villagers.

4 BATTLES

Full Heal after battle #2

First Aid
Have you located the village?
Difficulty: 61
Stat Used: Luck

---

«If you fail the roll, you receive a Full Heal and...»

«You»: ...Not here. Maybe over the next hill...

«You repeat 4 BATTLES as above, followed by another roll.»

---

«If you succeed the roll in any way, you enter the village and find a Demon Knight holding a villager hostage!»

«You»: Halt, demon! Let the villager go!
Demon Knight: I don't know what you're doing out here, Frogzard Knight, but this village is under the Obsidian Legion's protection!
Demon Knight: Leave while you still draw breath!
«You»: Wait, protection? Rennd has reported that you're using these villagers as slave labor.
Villager: Slave labor? We were merely relocated because our resources were running out.
Villager: Tyranna's troops have been very kind to us for the most part. They've given us shelter and food, and kept us safe.
«You»: Safe from whom?
Demon Knight: From the Crimson Legion.
«You»: The Crimson Legion?
Demon Knight: Tyranna doesn't like to admit it, but some of her followers are more zealous than others about the war.
Demon Knight: The Crimson Legion has been slaughtering villages against the Queen's orders. We relocated this village to hide them.
Villager: I've heard they even take some as captives and subject them to horrible experiments!
«You»: Why does Tyranna allow this?
Demon Knight: She doesn't want to, but the Crimson Legion are some of her best warriors. If she disbands them, Rennd would have us at a disadvantage.
«You»: I see... that is a very different tale than Rennd has been telling to those in the East.
Demon Knight: Unsurprising. They have been after us from the start, swaying other kingdoms to attack us, and....

From off the scene, a voice can be heard.

???: Do my eyes deceive me, or are you making casual conversation with a Knight of Deren?

Demon Lord Eir enters the scene.

Demon Knight: ...! Demon Lord Eir of the Crimson Legion! What are your scum doing here? The Obsidian Legion is....
Demon Lord Eir: The Obsidian Legion is weak, and refuses to do what must be done. Our Queen's orders to destroy the invaders are quite clear.
Demon Lord Eir: Yet here I find one of yours striking up conversation with the enemy, feeding them information.
Demon Lord Eir: Perhaps I should inform the Queen of the Obsidian Legion's treachery, giving our enemies information. Then the Crimson Legion can assume control of this camp.
Demon Knight: You would lie to the Queen to consolidate your own power?
Demon Lord Eir: Who says it is a lie? It is my word as a Demon Lord against yours. No one can vouch for you.
Demon Lord Eir: Besides... you're dead.

• !!!

Through the silhouettes, Eir can be seen viciously striking the Demon Knight, ending with a finishing blow that causes the Knight to crumble and fall to the ground.

«You»: I won't permit this!
Demon Lord Eir: Then try to stop me, human!

1 BATTLE: Demon Lord Eir
Full Heal

Demon Lord Eir: Ugh.... I underestimated you. It shall not happen again. When next we meet, you will fall.

Eir swiftly retreats from the scene. You are presented with two choices.

• Use First-Aid on Demon Knight!

The Demon Knight recovers from his injuries.

Demon Knight: You... healed me? Why?

«You»: You are protecting these people. I have no quarrel with you.

Demon Knight: Even though we may meet on the field of battle one day?

«You»: If that should happen, then so be it. But today, it is clear to me that there is no reason for you to die.

«You»: You have a responsibility to uphold, regardless. You must inform your superiors and your Queen of today's events.

Demon Knight: Indeed. I am glad that we crossed paths, Knight of Deren.

«You»: As am I.

• Leave

Regardless of choice above, you return and meet Cerin on Deren's practice grounds.

«You»: It is as King Tralin predicted. There is a single faction within Stormfallen, the Crimson Legion, that is responsible for the corruption of humans.
«You»: The reports from Rennd are most likely fabrications as well.
Cerin: I am pleased with your diligence on this assignment.
Cerin: It will be a little while until your next assignment, so let us retire to the alchemy labs so that I may show you how to produce your own First-Aid Kit.

Congratulations! You are now a Level 8 Knight, and have learned a new skill as a result of your training!
