Velodyna belongs to the Alliance and the Resistance now. You may be assured that the imperials will never hold it again!
From a stone bridge to a massive fortress... Garlean engineering never ceases to impress.
Now that we have taken control of Velodyna, there's nothing stopping us from marching east towards the Peaks.
If you're looking for Arenvald, I think he's with Pipin, searching the castellum for any remaining soldiers.
Player7 Icon.png Cutscene start.
I know you're not one for waiting, but if you'll bear with us─
Commander Kemp! Marshal Tarupin reports that their sweep of the castellum's interior has been completed!
So it's finally over, eh? Pray extend to him my deepest thanks.
It's official, then. Castellum Velodyna is well and truly ours. Mayhap this calls for─ Wait, where is M'naago?

She took her bird and flew off towards the Peering Stones─the village of the M tribe, where she was born.


I doubt that the imperials who fled Velodyna had a mind to give them trouble on their way back east, but she was nevertheless worried, so I gave her leave to go and see that her people were safe.
Though I pray you are right, 'twould be best if M'naago were not alone if she should encounter the enemy.
Agreed! Let's all go to the Peering Stones and make sure that everything is all right.
If that is your wish, then I've no objection. Just let the guard know when you wish to cross.

Quest Accepted
For now we need to take stock of our supplies, tend to our wounded, and so forth. We'll resume our march east soon enough, but not yet.
Greetings, Scion. Do you wish to pass?
Cross the bridge?
Yes No
We will soon start sending scouts east to survey the land in preparation for our advance. We do not anticipate much resistance at this time, but should we encounter any imperial forces, we shall deal with them quickly and severely.

Did you say you were for the Peering Stones? In that case, mayhap Marshal Tarupin and I should join you.


We spied a suspicious pair earlier─a Hyur and a Lalafell, by the looks of them─but they fled when they realized they'd been spotted. If they're imperials, then we can't have them stirring up trouble.
Since when did you become a bloodhound? A Miqo'te ought to trust their ears, not their nose.
<sniff> <sniff> On your guard, Arenvald. They're still about...
...But of course. Tiring though it may be to come and go from the clifftop, it is easily defended and affords an excellent view of the surrounding area.
This area is home to dangerous beasts. Naught that we cannot handle, mind, but do not be surprised if something ravenous and slavering comes charging at you out of nowhere.
The path to the village is through a tunnel just east of here. Follow me!
Not just Seekers of the Sun, but Ananta? Mayhap there is a settlement nearby...
We may not have seen any imperial forces thus far, but we mustn't forget that this was occupied territory until very recently. They could still be nearby.
Well, what do you think? Hard to tell from down below that a whole village is up here, isn't it?
Player7 Icon.png Voiced cutscene start.
Ah, you've come. Welcome, friends, to my village. My home.
How fare your people?
Good, all things considered. Better than the Ananta, at any rate...
They've sent an emissary. I'll take you to her.
We're here to help. Will you tell us what happened?
Aye. It began with a quarrel between the imperials and the Qalyana.
The Qalyana are another Ananta tribe─the strongest and the most influential.
Unlike the Vira, they want no part of our troubles. They swore fealty to the Empire and were content to remain within their borders.
Jussst ssso. The Qalyana forsssook their pride and the fight, and yielded to Garlemald long ago.

But then a new commander was sssent to hold the black bridge.

She demanded the Qalyana sssurrender a hossstage, thisss Butcher.
Fordola. It doesn't make sense, though... The Vira are the ones working with the Resistance. Why would she threaten the Qalyana?
Because she is ignorant, like all imperials. She knows not the difference between Qalyana and Vira, nor does she care to learn.
I see. All Fordola knew for sure was that the Resistance would come from the west. She reasoned, therefore, that if the Ananta on the east bank turned their coats, she would be trapped. I take it the Qalyana had no choice but to oblige her.
No, they did not. The imperials left with the Qalyana broodmother's own daughter, Anamika.

Long days and nightsss she looked out on the black bridge, weeping for her child. Until you came.


The broodmother knew at once which way the winds would blow. She and her warriors met with the fleeing imperials in the road and demanded that her daughter be returned.
Bad idea... Fordola's not the kind to take threats lying down.
You know her well. The Butcher turned her blade to Anamika and bade the Qalyana move aside.
But the broodmother would not yield.
I know where this is going...
The Qalyana sssurrounded the imperials, one of whom, whether out of fear or ssstupidity, cut the child down. There was naught that could be done.
What madness...
The true madnesss was yet to come. For in her dessspair, the Qalyana broodmother cried out for her daughter to be ressstored to life.
She bessseeched Sri Lakshmi's intercession.
She summoned a primal, then and there?
That she did, if only for an inssstant. Bereft of courage and honor, the broodmother sssought sssolace in her faith.

The imperials fled in terror at the sssight of the goddesss, abandoning these lands to the Ananta...


Now the Qalyana bid usss make pilgrimage, to pay proper ressspectsss. Yet though we Vira revere Sri Lakshmi as the holiessst of the holy, we will not prossstrate ourssselves before Her.
And so you turned to us.
Aye. All who have fought with the Resissstance have heard tell of the warrior. The eikon-ssslayer.
I believe we have heard enough. Inconvenient though the timing may be, if a primal has indeed been summoned, we can scarce afford to ignore it. We must needs discuss how best to resolve this situation.
