Contents
“Nature under threat” is one of the four quests proposed by the sages of the four capitals and intended for Homins arriving from Silan on the continent. Like the other three quests, it accompanies the character up to level 100. This page recalls all the dialogues of the quest and the different missions that make it up.
The quest takes place entirely in Witherings. Completion of the quest is rewarded with items of heavy armour of good quality, a melee or ranged weapon, and lesser "gifts".
This quest is long. The last step reached is remembered, so if the quest is unintentionally abandoned, it can always be resumed by returning to talk to the sage who gave it.

and the gracious participation of (by apparition order) of the Shadow Runners, the Hamazans of the Dead Seed, the Company of the Eternal Tree and the Black Circle tribes members.
Tribal conflict
- Investigation of offenses against nature.
— Cai Ci-Du :« $You$, we have a serious problem. We have found that the flora of Maiden Grove is dying. If this trend continues, the vegetation may dissapear altogether, and Goo will appear. Would you care to assist us?
(refuse)
— You : I have something more important to do.
— Cai Ci-Du : Really? All right. We will find someone else...
(accept)
— You : I am always ready to help protect nature.
— Cai Ci-Du : Two tribes call Maiden Grove their home: The Hamazans of the Dead Seed and the Shadow Runners. According to the Shadow Runners, the Hamazans of the Dead Seed are responsible for this insult to nature. If you are a true child of Atys, go to the Shadow Runners and try to learn a bit more about this threat.
Oh, one last thing: This mission may take a long time. If you forget who you were supposed to go see next, don't hesitate to ask me.
[Find the camp of the Shadow Runners, in the north-east of Maiden Grove, and speak with them about the accusations.]
[Parlez à Ba'Roley Hathy]
— You : Nature in this area is wasting away. I have heard you know something about this...
— Ba'Roley Hathy : Yes, Hamazans of the Dead Seed are responsible. We have seen many of them carrying out nightly experiments on vegitation in the area, and yet we both know that it is the Matis who are experts in this field.
Therefore we are convinced that they are destroying nature in Maiden Grove. But we dare not confront them directly. If you could go reason with them, explain the consequenses to them, should they continue...
[Find the camp of the Hamazans of the Dead Seed, in Maiden Grove, and ask them about the accusations against them.]
[Talk to Tinaera Rosirello]
— You : Il parait que vous n'êtes pas étrangères aux problèmes récents...
— Tinaera Rosirello : I do not know what those idiots from Shadow Runners told you, but we have nothing to do with what is happening here. Moreover, we are the the ones to most bemoan the situation!
Experiments? Certainly not! We are mercenaries, not scientists!
[Look for clues which may help identify the culprits.]
Rummaging in your bag, you suddenly find a letter: I can help with the investigation into the Maiden Grove flora. Come find me in Zora. Vao Sai-Fuang.
[Find Vao Sai-Fuang, who has promised to help you.]
— You : Hello, I found a message, signed by you
— Vao Sai-Fuang : Ah... hello, $You$. I was asked to examine the flora of Maiden Grove, but as this is what you are doing too, let us combine our efforts.
However, before starting, I urgently need some horns from wary Messab. A friend recently asked me for them, and if this investigation is going to drag on.... You can find wary Messab in the north-west of Maiden Grove.
[Find a horn on wary Messabs, in Maiden Grove.]
You find a horn on the Messab :
[Bring the horn back to Vao Sai-Fuang]
— Vao Sai-Fuang : Ah, very good. Here's something to thank you. Now, about this investigation...
You receive 150 elevation crystals :
One or the other?
- Continue the investigation into the problems in Maiden Grove
- [Make sure you are at least level 60 in fight before going to see Vao Sai-Fuang]
- [Talk to Vao Sai-Fuang]
- — Vao Sai-Fuang : Right... we will have to check something. Go to Maiden Grove and find choice Sap/Silverweed of the jungle.. This will enable us to find out if the Hamazans of the Dead Seed are responsible for this or not.
Follow the road to the west from the Hamazans of the Dead Seed’s camp, and you will quickly arrive at Maiden Pond. Near the pond, you will find the sap that I need[1]. To get it you will need to prospect. If you do not have this skill you should ask someone to help you.
- [Gather 5 choice Sap/Silverweed of the jungle and bring them to Vao Sai-Fuang. You can forage for them near Maiden Pond[1] to the west of the camp of the Hamazans of the Dead Seed.] :
- — Vao Sai-Fuang : You have brought me the sap, $You$. I see that I can trust you. Now I will have to study the wildlife and intelligent plants. You will have to kill some specimens.... Let's see..
For the wildlife, gather me some Torbak Fangs. For the plants, Slaveni Moss. When you return, I will have finished analyzing that sap you gave me.
- [Find 5 fine fangs/ Torbak of at leatst quality 80 ] :
- [Gather 5 basic Mosse/Slaveni of at least quality 80] :
- [Bring the Fangs and the Moss to Vao Sai-Fuang.]
- — Vao Sai-Fuang : Excellent. For my part, I have finished the analysis of the sap, and the results are intriguing. This sap has been contaminated by the evil corrupting Maiden Grove, but... in no way can this be the work of the Hamazans of the Dead Seed.
The magic here is just simply too advanced. The Hamazans of the Dead Seed have never developed their magic to this level, any more than the Shadow Runners have, for that matter. I believe the sap was put here to bring suspicion onto the Hamazans of the Dead Seed...
But before going further, we will have to stop the conflict growing between the two tribes. A battle between tribes in Maiden Grove is the last thing we need.
Vao Sai-Fuang is grateful and gives you some dappers. ( 20 000 dp$ )
Convince the Tribes
- Win the trust of the tribes so that they will listen to what you have to say.
- [Make sure you are at least level 70 in fight before going to see Vao Sai-Fuang]
- [Talk to Vao Sai-Fuang]
- — You :Hello, what can I do to avoid the conflict?
- — Vao Sai-Fuang : Vous devez absolument convaincre les deux tribus de ne pas entamer les hostilités. Nous avons aucunement besoin d'une guerre dans le Maiden Grove en ce moment.]
Convince the Shadow Runners
- [Win the trust of the Shadow Runners so they will listen to what you have to say.]
- [Speak to Ba'Roley Hathy of the Shadow Runners to convince him to stop the conflict]
- — You : I have important information for you...
- — Ba'Roley Hathy : Bring us some raw materials. Three fragments of fine beak/Izam will be sufficient. Only then we will listen.
- [Gather 3 fragments of fine beak/Izam of at least quality 80 for the Shadow Runners.]
- — Ba'Roley Hathy : So, what do you want to tell us?
Huh? It wasn't the Hamazans of the Dead Seed? But then who...? All right, all right, I will try to stop the hostilities against them...Convince the Hamazans of the Dead Seed
- [Win the trust of the Hamazans of the Dead Seed so they will listen to what you have to say.]
- [Speak to Tinaera Rosirello of the Hamazans of the Dead Seed to convince her to stop the conflict]
- — You : I have important information for you...
- — Tinaera Rosirello : We only hear those who can prove their skills to us. Kill three $ragus.p$ and we will listen to what you have to say.
- [...]
- [Go back to see Tinaera Rosirello, in the Hamazans of the Dead Seed camp..]
- — You : I have killed the ragus
- — Tinaera Rosirello : You are worthy of our respect. What did you want to say ?
The evil that is attacking Maiden Grove does not originate with either of the tribes? But then... where does it come from? All right, we will cease our hostilities towards the Shadow Runners until this has been cleared up.Truce
- [Continue the investigation into the problems in Maiden Grove]
- [Make your report to Vao Sai-Fuang]
You receive a Medium Quality Zoraï Bracelet:
- — You : Both tribes have agreed to keep the peace.
- — Vao Sai-Fuang : I heard about the lower tension between the Hamazans of the Dead Seed and the Shadow Runners. You have done good work, $You$. A battle on this already injured ground would have had disastrous consequences. You more than deserve this item.
But now, we still need to find the real culprits... and this could get very dangerous.
Clear up the mystery
- [Continue the investigation into the problems in Maiden Grove]
- [Make sure you are at least level 80 in fight before going to see Vao Sai-Fuang]
- [Talk to à Vao Sai-Fuang]
- — Vao Sai-Fuang : I have a hypothesis about what is causing the trouble in Maiden Grove. Go to Haven of Purity, kill a parched Psykoplas and bring me its moss {break}Attention, $You$! Haven of Purity is a very dangerous place. You may want to bring companions for this task.
- [Go to Haven of Purity and gather some Moss from a parched Psykopla.]
- [Take the Psykopla Moss to $givervar$.]
- — Vao Sai-Fuang : Very good, $You$. Let me examine this moss for a while...
- [Parlez à Vao Sai-Fuang.]
- [Please wait a moment while Vao Sai-Fuang analyses the Moss.]
- [Talk to Vao Sai-Fuang.]
- — You : What's happening?
- — Vao Sai-Fuang : It is much more complicated than I thought. This evil was produced by very powerful magicians... but how did they do it?
Didn't you say that the Shadow Runners have encountered homins at night? And if they weren't Hamazans of the Dead Seed, who are we looking for? Return to Ba'Roley Hathy et Tinaera Rosirello and ask them to watch the area.
- [Ask the chiefs of the tribes in Maiden Grove to keep a watch out.]
- — You : I have a favor to ask you.
- — Ba'Roley Hathy : Watch the area? Again? All right, if it will help...
[...]
- — You : I have a favor to ask you.
- — Tinaera Rosirello : Watch the Maiden Grove? Sure, not a problem. Together we can perhaps get our hands on these people...
[...]
- — You : Any news?
- — Tinaera Rosirello : Nous n'avons encore rien trouvé.
[...]
- — You : Any news?
- — Ba'Roley Hathy : $You$! We have identified these shady individuals! Men in black were spotted not far from here. They used some strange magic... frightening magic. We left quickly, but I am sure these are the people we are looking for.
- [Tell Vao Sai-Fuang what the Shadow Runners have seen.]
- — You : The Shadow Runners have found something!!]
- — Ba'Roley Hathy :Men in black? Strange and frightening magic? Could it be... no, they would no go that far... but we'll need to make sure...
Yes, we will proceed with that. Here is a reward for you...
You receive 10 Consttution Flowers :
Aiding the Company [2]
- [Continue the investigation into the problems in Maiden Grove]
- [Make sure you are at least level 90 in fight before going to see Vao Sai-Fuang$]
- [Talk to Vao Sai-Fuang]
- — Vao Sai-Fuang : This situation is beyond us; we will have to ask for help. I think that the Company of the Eternal Tree will be fully prepared to help us. I believe they have already started an investigation into the events, from their side
Go bring them a sample of the Maiden Grove flora. Take these leaves that I have collected to the Company of the Eternal Tree. Be careful, the area is very dangerous, you may need help to go there.
- [Speak to the officer of the Company of the Eternal Tree, in the Haven of Purity, about the problems in Maiden Grove.]
[ trek...]
- — You : Hello, there is something I would like to talk to you about...
- — Icaps Xaphaan : Hello. Do you want to help us with the investigation into the pollution of Maiden Grove?
- [Show the leaves to Icaps Xaphaan.]
- — Icaps Xaphaan : These leaves... yes, they are leaves from Maiden GroveIt seems you have much to say, $You$... tell me everything.
- [Tell Icaps Xaphaan what happened.]
- — You : This is what happened...
- — Icaps Xaphaan : I see. You've done a lot, and, thanks to your help, I think that we'll finally be able to resolve this matter. With what you have told us, we think we have identified those responsible.
However, we must make one final check... you will be rewarded if you do it for us. Take this sphere, and place it where the Shadow Runners saw these individuals
- [Ask the Shadow Runners for details on where they saw the homins in black.]
- — You : Where, exactly, have you seen these strangers?
- — Ba'Roley Hathy : Where they were spotted? South of our camp, there is a tunnel, the Great Boulder Tunnel. Go inside, when you exit you will come across a skeletal head. Follow the path, and you will find some stones. That's where they were...
- [Go to where the homins in black were seen: South of the camp of Shadow Runners’ camp, take the Great Boulder Tunnel,, exit on the other side and take the path until you arrive at the strange stones.]
- [Place the sphere on the altar]
- [The sphere you gave Icaps Xaphaan begins to darken. Moments later, it has gone completely black.]
- [Take the sphere back to Icaps Xaphaan.]
- — Icaps Xaphaan : It turned dark. Exactly as we thought. You have done well, $You$. We would reward you now, but your task is incomplete. Come back when you have honed your fighting skills more, because the place where you have to go requires great courage.

The Company's warning
- [Continue the investigation into the problems in Maiden Grove]
[Make sure you are at least level 100 in fight before going to see Icaps Xaphaan']
— You : Voilà...
— Icaps Xaphaan : $You$, I will now tell you what we have learned thanks to you. The darkening of the sphere that you have carried there comes from an easily identifiable source of magic: the Goo.
Several tribes are interested in this cataclysm that the Goo is, but thanks to the sphere you brought back, we know which one is guilty here: it's the members of the Black Circle. [3]
Obviously, they must be stopped. However... direct conflict is not advisable. They have mastered the magic of the Goo and a battle would cause irrepearable damage to the nature we both want to protect
Ihope[4] that you will bring them a message. Everything is in this letter. Bring it to their leader. Should they become aggressive, flee. But after reading, I very much doubt they will try anything..
The Black Circle tribe has a camp in Grove of Umbra. This is a dangerous place for you, $You$. Try to find help before going there... unless you are feeling grand.
You receive a sealed letter :
[Find the camp of Black Circle, in Grove of Umbra, and speak to their chief.]
— You : You are the Black Circle, am I right?
— Ba'Wity Codgan : What do you want, $You$? You are not welcome here.
[Give Ba'Wity Codgan the letter from Company of the Eternal Tree.]
Ba'Wity Codgan opens the letter and frowns. But a moment later, fear is clearly written on his face.
[Ask Ba'Wity Codgan what he intends to do.]
— You : Et donc ?
— Ba'Wity Codgan : Hmm.... Ah well, I guess we don't have much choice. Tell the one who wrote this letter that we will immediately stop those... activities of which he speaks.
[Tell Icaps Xaphaan what the Black Circle have responded.]
— You : The chief told me they would stop immediately.
— Icaps Xaphaan : I don't think we will have to worry about them for a while... and at the same time, the Maiden Grove has been rescued. You have done nature a great service, $You$. Take this
This is a special material coveted by both Hamazans of the Dead Seed and Shadow Runners. If you give it to one of these two tribes, it will surely bring you great returns
I think the Shadow Runners have ranged weapons, while Hamazans of the Dead Seed prefer melee weapons.
you receive a precious material :
[Giver the offered material to Company of the Eternal Tree at Hamazans of the Dead Seed to get a melee weapon, or give it to Shadow Runners to get a ranged weapon.]
— Ba'Roley Hathy : Hey, this is really... incredible! We have been looking for such a long time! Take this in return, I think it will please you! [Ba-zoon Launcher]
— Tinaera Rosirello : This material, it's.... You are very impressive, $You$. This material is very valuable. Please accept this in return, I don't think you'll complain about this.[Kanka Mace]
