Rise of the Alliance

I have a crucial matter to discuss with you, [Name]. You see, I received a letter from Empress Cygnus. She wants to form a grand Alliance between all the factions and adventurers of Maple World to stand against the evil Black Mage. I know her heart's in the right place...

However, I am concerned for the fate of Maple World's adventurers. This Alliance would certainly place a number of restrictions upon them and I do not think it is our place to do so.

Of course, I cannot stand by and watch Maple World fall to the forces of chaos. I know you feel the same way, so please return to Empress Cygnus in Ereve and deliver my...no, our acceptance of her proposal. I hope that the forces of Maple World will stand united as I intend to.

Empress Cygnus holds court in Ereve. Go to the Victoria Platform and board the Airship to Ereve.

I'm not trying to force you into anything, but I feel that only by standing together can we protect the future of Maple World. Please consider the situation.

Welcome to Ereve. Ah, yes... Tell me of your decision. I will respect Athena Pierce's words, no matter what they may be.

I will lend my strength, for the sake of our world.

The continental conference will be held! Unity in the face of such evil is our only hope.

Please... As the voice of the free adventurers, your decision could shape the very future of Maple World. I understand your reservations, but please understand the threat that faces us.

This is a matter of extreme urgency. Please hurry to Ereve and deliver my message.
