Story Dialogue

Comfort Ellis.

Ellis I appreciate your concern, but I just want to be alone. I'm sorry, <Hurk>. (Ellis closes the door behind him as he leaves. His face is full of disappointment and pain.)

Talk to Gwynn

Gwynn (Gwynn glares at you.) You're the one who went to Ainle with Ellis? What were you thinking, mercenary?! Ellis is just a cadet! He's never been in real combat, and he still lets his emotions rule his actions. And you took him to Ainle?! He could've been killed! (Gwynn takes a deep breath.) Let's talk about this somewhere else. The Inn. Go. I'll be right behind you.

Go to the Inn and talk to Gwynn.

Tieve Welcome! Oh, <Hurk>. You're back early today. Huh? Gwynn Could we borrow a quiet room? We need to have a private conversation. Tieve Huh? Oh... Oh, of course! Follow me. ....... Gwynn (Gwynn takes a deep breath.) I will tell you what really happened in Ainle, but this is classified, understand? (She waits for you to nod before she continues.) We don't think the Fomors attacked Ainle. We're still investigating who attacked and why. We've blocked the town off to keep people from getting hurt. The threat may still be lurking around... (Gwynn sighs.) I'll talk to Ellis and calm him down. And as for you... (Gwynn's voice hardens. You are not to go anywhere near Ainle. That is an order. Remember, <Hurk>, I've reported your many accomplishments to Rocheste. Even Keaghan has asked to see you. That's quite a compliment. You have a good chance of getting into the Royal Army...depending on your future actions. Get my drift? Do not go anywhere near Ainle. (Gwynn leaves the room, closing the door behind her.)

Talk to Ellis again.

Ellis <Hurk>! Gwynn talked to me. I understand now. I'm sorry I got you in trouble. But you know that strange goblin we met? He had a key tied around his waist. Maybe someone who knows Ainle well can help you with that clue.

Acquire the Ainle Middle Gate Key from Battle Quest Ellis's Trust and talk to Fenella.

Fenella That key! (Fenella says nothing for a long moment.) Why are you so eager to find out about Ainle? The town's already gone... (Fenella sighs.) Thats the Ainle Middle Gate Key. It grants access to the Common Pasture, but only people who had reason to go there had a key. I... I promised I would say I saw nothing. I'm sorry. But you should be able to use that key to enter. And if anyone asks, you didn't hear this from me. [[File:{{{npc}}} (NPC Icon).png|text-bottom|35px]] [[{{{npc}}}]] You received information on Battle: Hell Beyond the Door.

(Optional: Talk to Ellis again.)

Ellis Find something? If you find anything, show me!

Find a Broken Wand and complete the Battle Quest Hell Beyond the Door, and talk to Ellis.

Ellis Find something? ....... Is that a magician's wand? I think I've seen that emblem somewhere. Wait, could it be...? I'm baffled. I'm sorry. [[File:{{{npc}}} (NPC Icon).png|text-bottom|35px]] [[{{{npc}}}]] You learned the Story: Broken Wand.
