(World) ► ??? (Landmass) ► ??? (Region) ► Zadnor (Zone) Mikoto The Resistance is preparing to secure a new outpost. After an analysis of the area, however, I regret to say there is nowhere near enough residual aether to power the barrier. To make matters worse, its rather awkward location requires us to redirect multiple currents to sustain a sufficient flow of energy. Lilja That's where these beauties come in─the defluxion aether manipulators, Mark II and Mark III! What sets them apart from the first model, you may ask...? Well, apart from the name, not a lot, but they are newer, if that counts for anything! Mikoto Though we both wish we could go with you, I fear we would only slow you down. Please, be safe out there. (- Mikoto -) You have reached the designated location, yes? Readying transmission protocols. So far, so good. Has the D.A.M. burrowed into the ground? Excellent. Proceed to the next site, and stay vigilant─there is no telling when you may encounter imperial forces. Excellent. Return to the outpost and we shall handle the rest. (- Mikoto -) Imperials? They didn't get the better of you, did they? No... I suppose you wouldn't be contacting me if they did. <sigh> I really must learn not to jump to conclusions... Ahem. The D.A.M. appears to be fully operational. How are things there? Excellent. Proceed to the next site, and stay vigilant─there is no telling when you may encounter imperial forces. Excellent. Return to the outpost and we shall handle the rest. Mikoto Welcome back. Our sensors detect steady streams of aether flowing toward the site of the new outpost. Now it is up to the Resistance to drive away the imperials. Once they have, a substantial confluence of energy should be available to power a new barrier. Lilja Well, everything seems to be under control here, so I'd better get going. Oh, right. Mikoto's gathered some promising data to help the chief deal with the Dalriada. Mikoto It pertains to my findings on the inner workings of the crystal foci. I believe it may be of use to him. Lilja The chief said he'd be heading back to Doma after finishing maintenance on Seiryu's Wall. Rather than drag him all the way back here, it seems quicker if I take the data to him myself. But don't worry─I'll be back before you know it. Ah, before I go... Mikoto. Is there anything else you'd like me to pass on to Cid? It's not good to keep your emotions bottled up like that, you know. Why don't you tell him how you feel? Mikoto How I f─ <gasp> Lilja! That is wholly and utterly unprofessional! I-I would never... He would never! And even if we did, we... This is neither the time nor the place to discuss such matters! Lilja I think it is. I've seen far too many people live to regret words left unspoken. Just think on it, will you? And try not to miss me while I'm away! Mikoto Um... Is there any chance you could forget that entire conversation? I was only joking, but thank you for trying! To tell the truth, since entering the Studium, my life has had but one singular purpose─the pursuit of knowledge. Yet for all my research and scholarly works, I never learned what it truly means to live. At least, that is what Moenbryda would tell me. She would often admonish me, always insisting I spend time with the other students, or at the very least step away from my dusty tomes for some fresh air. Perhaps she hoped I might find someone I cherished more than my books, though sadly she never had the chance to see it. Cid is truly a remarkable man, and I'll not deny our shared interest in the sciences. During the short time we've worked together, we've become good friends. And as his friend, I understand the great burdens of his mind. Even now, he struggles to break free from his ties to the Empire and his father's terrible legacy... Which is why I wish to do all within my power to support him. As a friend, mind you. My feelings toward Cid are similar to those I felt for Moenbryda─respect and admiration. As much as I hate to disappoint Lilja, that is the way of things. So please, don't read too deeply into it. Cutscene start. Cutscene end. Mikoto It seems the Resistance already has their sights set on another potential outpost site. I can only hope they secure the location without heavy losses. System The next quest can be accepted by speaking with Dmitar after reaching Resistance rank <Value>IntegerParameter(1)</Value> or higher.
