Dances with Balrog and His Recovery

Hmm...you need me for something? Wait, isn't that Elmina's 古い指輪...! How did you... really? You're here looking for 古代の本 at the request of Alcaster? The Book of Ancient, huh...I've forgotten about that book for a while...I'm sorry to say this, but even I don't know where exactly that book has gone. However, I do have something that may give you a clue as to finding the book's whereabouts.

But I can't just give you that. I also have been giving away a little bit of my power to all the warrior-hopefuls for hundreds of years, but there have been a sudden rush of people wanting to be Warriors, I've used up most of my power as a result. Get me 2 クリスタル(力)s and I'll help you find 古代の本. What do you think? Do you want to do it?

You can find what you need from the monsters nearby. It won't be easy, but it never is, is it? I will await your return.

Hmmm...but without my help you won't ever be able to find The Book of Ancient...Anyway if you have a change of heart, feel free to come back.

I still need 2 クリスタル(力) items. Keep battling monsters. You will find one soon enough!
