Dialogue

Quest Acceptance

Alphinaud: I trust you are well rested and refreshed, yes? Then let us return to the front. The greater part of the Alliance forces should have advanced into the Peaks by now, but I expect we will pass many of our comrades on the road east. There is a checkpoint along the way, as I recall, but we will need only to identify ourselves to the soldiers in order to pass. 

Speak with the Alliance recruit

'Alliance Recruit: Scions! A pleasure to have you with us again. You'll be happy to hear we've taken Ala Ghiri, and have already begun fortifying it as our new base of operations in the Peaks. Give a shout to the lads as you pass, eh? 

Lyse(Narration: I remember how they laughed. Alliance and Resistance soldiers, eager for battle, trading jokes as we marched east towards the Peaks... Beyond this last line of defenses lay the Lochs and the city. Breaching it would be no small feat. But we beat the imperials back, just like that, and we liberated a village. The first of many...

Speak with M'naago

M'Naago: As you can see, this part of the Peaks is much higher than the northern reaches, hence why the imperials built Specula Imperatoris where they did. See those three towers to the east? That's her. Sits right on the edge of a cliff, so attacking form the north is a fool's errand. From the south, on the other hand, she's no different from any other imperial installation. You see now why Velodyna was so important, eh? Right, then. Come along - they're waiting for us in Ala Ghiri. 

Follow M'naago to Ala Ghiri

M'Naago: Here we are. The new base of operations for the Alliance and the Resistance! 
Raubahn: Ah, there you are! 
Alphinaud: Greetings, General. I see you have been quite busy in our absence. 
Raubahn: Less than you may imagine. The imperials fled at our coming, and we took the village without a fight. Your timing is impeccable. We were about to discuss our strategy to seize Specula Imperatoris. 
Alphinaud: Though we are fresh from the road, we should be glad to attend. 
Raubahn: Good. Take a moment to gather yourselves, and join us when you are ready.
