Narcisse

A Small Favor


Wayfinder, hello.

I am sorry to ask more of you, but if you've some time one of my reports from the Bastion of the Natural has passed along troubling news of missing Astral Ward. She could use your knowledge of the battlefield to locate them. If there's any chance of returning them to safety alive, we should move quickly.

Her name is Hortensia, and she is likely working out of the refugee clinic in the Wizard's Tower.

Warden Assistant Hortensia

I... Apologies, I'm at a bit of a loss. Some of our wards are missing, or...worse. I've been able to find a few of their dog tags, but... Are you able to help? Is that too much to ask? My soldiers...
Talk collection option.png Of course, anything I can do.

Basil: Embla was right behind me when the portal...opened... I... Her blood was...
Basil: The screams... (groans)
Basil: I managed to...pull myself here.
Basil: Aellin, my...
Basil: If you...make it out... Could you take this...to him?
Basil: Aellin, he...he's in...Lion's Arch. Refuses to leave...
S-so what do you say? Will you take it to them...?

Talking to Vaulz Baelwalker
I-is this for real? You're... THE commander, right? I was hoping I'd get to meet you one day, under... better circumstances. It seems I'm not quite cut out for Kryptis fighting.

Talk end option tango.png Wait here. I'll be back.
After talking to Vaulz Baelwalker

Talking to Fulla
Please, NO! O-oh... You're not one of them! Quick, you have to hide. They could be trying to find us. Please, keep your v-voice down.
Talk collection option.png It's okay. The coast is clear. Let's get you to the Bastion of the Natural.

Returning to Hortensia
How goes it?
Talk collection option.png I've got all of the ones on the list.
Th-thank you so much for all of this, Commander. Thanks to you, some of our members get to see another day. And...the families of those lost can receive closure.
Talk more option tango.png It was no trouble. It was you who ensured that they weren't forgotten.
I appreciate the kind words. Speaking of which, we plan on holding a memorial for those lost, if you'd like to attend. I'm sure folks would appreciate you being there, given all you've done for them.
Talk collection option.png I'll be there.
Warden Assistant Hortensia: Oh, Wayfinder... I've asked so much of you. The things you've seen...

You ready to start this?
Talk collection option.png Let's do this!
Talk end option tango.png Maybe later.
Warden Assistant Hortensia: Astral Ward. My friends...
Warden Assistant Hortensia: We all came to this place for a reason. Whether to escape the cruelty of the world or to find a purpose. To explore. Learn.
Warden Assistant Hortensia: Isgarren and...Mabon curated the best. We are family, and Amnytas is our home.
Warden Assistant Hortensia: Wayfinder, will you place the dog tags at the base of the memorial for me...?
Talk collection option.png Place Dog Tags (interact)
Warden Assistant Hortensia: We are all empathetic beings with similar goals: to understand what we don't already, and to protect Tyria.
Warden Assistant Hortensia: While this war against the Kryptis has yet to conclude, we gather to mourn. We gather to celebrate...
Warden Assistant Hortensia: Embla and Basil. Mabon, who guided us on our darkest days. So many have left us to be embraced by the swirling cosmos beyond.
Warden Assistant Hortensia: Let us be together for a few quiet moments, before we lift our swords again.
Warden Assistant Hortensia: Mabon would always tell us, "Think of your fondest memory," on especially dark days. Take a moment and do just that.
