Eleska's Sand Bandits

I thought it was a case of an outsider mindlessly wanting to join the hype. I apologize for underestimating you. So you really want to join the Sand Bandits? Then I'll have to test you once more.

Every member of the Sand Bandits has a deep hatred towards the queen. We just don't show it publicly. You can't achieve anything if you don't even have self control.

That is why the most important trait of a Sand Bandits is patience. Being patient enough not to be swayed by what's unfolding right in front of your eyes, but patiently waiting for the right time.

You know of Lidium. It's a jewel you can find in the desert. You can also make it through the Mining profession. If you bring me 2 Lidium items, then I'll accept you as a member of the Sand Bandits. It's not easy, refining small ores into jewels, so I think this'll be a good test to gauge your patience.

This must be too tough for you to handle. If you can't do it, then just forget about it.

Ho! You brought 2 Lidiums. This can only be found in the area around Ariant, and it's hard to make. But once it's made, it lasts for a long time. It may look brittle, but it's actually much harder than a diamond.

Lidium has characteristics of the people in the desert. People here may not trust you at first. You have to earn it. But once you earn it, they never turn their back on you. You have definitely shown me your true character. I, Eleska, the desert warrior, now anoint you as a new member of the Sand Bandits!

But don't be satisfied with just this. You have earned one person's trust, that's all. You are not yet officially accepted as a true member of the Sand Bandits. If you really wish to become a part of our group, you have to find the other members and prove your worth to each and every one of them.

You got those 2 Lidium items yet?
