The 22 quest steps

1. 1Talk to Maysial

   Dialogue[15,-20] · Maysial

   The quest starts right after the previous one, in the Sanctuary of Last Hope. Maysial has confirmation: a war is going to ravage the plains of Cania, but no writing, from the past or the future, mentions it. To avoid it, you must question Kanigrula, who will play a central role in it.

2. 2Ask to see the matriarch

   Dialogue[-5,-54] · Kanish

   Go to the front of Kanigrula's dungeon and talk to Kanish to ask to meet the Kanigs' matriarch.

   Dialogue

   1. “Lie and claim that Kanigrula requested your presence”

   To talk to Kanigrula, you must have completed Ixnay on the Idnappingkay. Other conditions are possible but unconfirmed: the achievements of Kanigrula's dungeon, or the quest series of The Imprudent Voyager achievement.

   

3. 3Defeat Kanigrula's guards

   Combat[-5,-54] · Kanigrula

   Question Kanigrula about her intentions. She refuses to answer and sends her two elite guards at you: a fight starts, to be done solo.

   Dialogue

   1. “Ignore her hypothetical threats and ask her about her intentions regarding Cania”

   The guards' spells: Grrr (reflects a spell of rank 6 at most for 1 turn, from turn 1 then every 3 turns); Shoulder Slam (pulls itself to the target, in a line and without line of sight, and hits for 280 Air in a half-circle of radius 2); Boulder Buster (140 Neutral in melee, removes 2 MP, dodgeable, for 1 turn); Cover-Up (damage reduced by 25 for 2 turns, from turn 1 then every 3 turns); Sliceblade (500 as life steal in melee, 20% erosion for 2 turns); Spinning Top (300 Earth in a star of distance 3 around him, steals 50 Strength, 75 on a critical hit, for 4 turns).

4. 4Question Kanigrula again

   Dialogue[-5,-54] · Kanigrula

   After the fight, Kanigrula admits she wants to carve out a place among the most powerful of this world. But she has no intention of launching a war, which would jeopardize the Kanigs' chances of becoming a great nation.

   Dialogue

   1. “Wipe the blood of your enemies off and ask her again about her intentions regarding Cania”

5. 5Find Maysial again at Yova Etna's

   [-9,-40] · Maysial

   Go to Yova Etna's tent and tell Maysial about your meeting. She admits that Kanigrula has no war plans for now, but wants to know what will push her to take up arms: she asks you to use Yova Etna's crystal ball to see the future.

   

6. 6Take Yova Etna's test

   Dialogue[-9,-40] · Yova Etna

   Give a Trool Fair Ticket to Yova Etna so that she agrees to talk to you, then ask to use her ball. She first makes you take a test: a wrong answer forces you to wait 5 minutes before talking to her again. Test passed, talk to her again: she judges you fit to use the ball without risk of dying from it.

   Dialogue

   1. “Ask to use the crystal ball to see the future”
   2. “Reply ‘the year 1000’”
   3. “Reply ‘the Eliocalypse’”
   4. “Reply ‘the Dragocampe’”
   5. “Reply ‘I was expecting you’”
   6. “Say that she's the one who is rather predictable”

7. 7Enter the Eltneg Wood vision

   Movement · Maysial

   Click the crystal ball in front of Yova Etna: you are now in the Eltneg Wood vision. Talk to Maysial: you are in the near future, lumberjacks are cutting wood, but something is wrong.

   Dialogue

   1. “Ask her what she senses”

8. 8Question the lumberjack Kanigs

   Dialogue

   Go right and talk to the Weakened Kanig: mushrooms are proliferating unusually in the wood. Then talk to the Ill Kanig, who has been nauseous for several days: relations between the Kanigs and the wood's Trools are fine.

9. 9Defeat the corrupted creature

   Combat

   Go down one map and click the mushroom on the right. A fight starts, to be done solo. The creature's spells: Mucus (400 Earth in a cross of size 2 around it, then 100 shield points and 3 MP for 1 turn); Spongy (when it takes push damage, reduces enemies' range around the point of impact by 3, from 1 to 2 range, endless); Wormy Puncture (400 Water as life steal, removes 3 MP, dodgeable, for 1 turn, Empiritis state 3 endless, up to 5 range); Parasitysm (350 Air, teleports the target symmetrically relative to it, Parasitis state 3 endless, up to 2 range).

   From the start of the fight, you have the Rotting Skin state: it poisons you for 190 to 265 fixed Fire damage in 2 turns and reduces your damage by 90%, endlessly. To remove it, heal yourself or steal life, for example with a cawwot's glyph. The other illnesses are those of the Tree of Death dungeon.

   • Corruption Sourcereceived

10. 10Show the Corruption Source

    Items · Maysial

    Go back to see Maysial at the entrance of the vision. These spores come from another time: they were sown by Corruption, one of the four Horsemen.

    Dialogue

    • 1 × Corruption Sourceto hand over

11. 11Enter the Cania Fields vision

    Dialogue

    1. “Look around and recognize the fields of Cania”

12. 12Defend the Desperate Kanig

    Combat

    On the map to the right, talk to the Desperate Kanig: Bontarian peasants accuse him of destroying their crops, when he only sowed seeds, as an agreement between Kanigrula and the king of Bonta allows. Then talk to the Angry Peasant: the Kanigs farm the lent land poorly, and the Bontarians need it to avoid famine. A fight starts against the Bontarians, solo alongside the Kanig.

    Spells encountered: Clawhook (470 Air in a cross of size 1, steals 50 Agility for 4 turns); Dubious Hygiene (20 tackle and 10% fewer resistances for 2 turns, in a half-circle of radius 3); Blinding Claws (480 Air, removes 4 range for 1 turn); Backfilling (150 Earth in a cross of size 2); Sprint (4 MP to the target for 1 turn); Spade Kiss (145 Fire); Flaming Attack (180 Fire, steals 60 Intelligence for 3 turns); Lifelessness (350 Fire, removes 4 MP, dodgeable, for 1 turn); Wall (damage reduced by 7 for 2 turns); Shield (unknown effect); Blister (300 Water, removes 3 range for 1 turn); Steamy Attack (330 Water, in a line, steals 80 Chance for 3 turns); Burning Poison (Infected state for 4 turns); Delirious Grass (200 Fire, removes 3 MP, dodgeable, for 1 turn); Spiny Stem (150 Earth).

    • Misery Seedreceived

13. 13Show the Misery Seed

    Items · Maysial

    Go back to the entrance of the vision and talk to Maysial. These tensions are the work of Misery, another of the four Horsemen. Will the Kanigs be blamed for the famine, and will the war pit the Kanigs against Bonta?

    Dialogue

    1. “Explain the peasants' hatred of the Kanigs and show the seed”

    • 1 × Misery Seedto hand over

14. 14Enter the Cania Peaks vision

    Movement · Maysial

    Click the crystal ball in front of Yova Etna again, this time for the vision of the Cania Peaks. Talk to Maysial: the Kanig from the previous vision died a few weeks ago, and it's war now.

    Dialogue

    1. “Smell the acrid smoke of war”

15. 15Meet the forces involved

    Dialogue

    First go right and talk to Azogzog: the Kanigs have invaded the Bworks' lands, and the Bworks don't intend to take it lying down. Return to Maysial's map, go up one map and talk to the Kanig War Chief: after attacks on his scout patrols, he launched a punitive expedition against the Bworks and, despite his losses, doesn't intend to back down.

16. 16Survive the battle against the Bworks

    Combat

    A wave fight starts, solo alongside 3 Kanigs. Wave 1: 1 Vindictive Mama Bwork, 1 Resentful Bwork, 1 Vengeful Bwork and 1 War-Crazed Bwork.

17. 17Check in with Maysial

    Dialogue · Maysial

    Go back down one map and talk to Maysial again. To find out whether the war will last, she proposes looking even further into the future.

    Dialogue

    1. “Say that the Cania Bworks don't seem to have appreciated Kanigs patrolling their territory”

18. 18Collect the Solid Pick

    Items

    Click the crystal ball once more: here is the vision of the Kanig Village. Click the bucket full of tools to get a Solid Pick.

    • Solid Pickreceived

19. 19Talk to the imprisoned Kanigrula

    Dialogue · Kanigrula

    On the map to the left, talk to Kanigrula, who seems to be a prisoner. Bonta betrayed her: while her warriors were fighting the Bworks in the peaks, King Beldarion followed the directives of steward Danathor, who sees the Kanigs as a threat to the White City. Militiamen have taken control of her village.

    Dialogue

    1. “Ask why she is locked up here”

20. 20Free the chained rock

    Maysial isn't there to get you out of the vision. Equip the Solid Pick in place of your weapon, then click twice on the chain around the big rock, at the top of the map. A fight starts, to be done solo: the Lamination spell hits for 300 Earth and pushes back. After the victory, click the chain again, with the pick still equipped.

    The Solid Pick must be equipped in place of your weapon for both passes on the chain, before and after the fight.

21. 21Tell Maysial about the vision

    Dialogue · Maysial

    Talk to Maysial again. The Kanigs are under Servitude's yoke: the war will pit the Kanigs against the Bworks, then Bonta. To understand why the four Horsemen want this conflict, and whether it leads to the Eliocalypse, she asks you to collect fragments of their will, first by thwarting each Horseman's will.

22. 22Talk to Martalo

    Dialogue[15,-20] · Martalo

    Go back to the Sanctuary of Last Hope through the Depths of Astrub (Arch of Vili) zaap and talk to Martalo. The quest ends.
