Age of Chaos-Aran

You feel it too, don't you, [Nome]? The Black Mage's power...it's growing. We need to end this ages-old war, and quickly. The Explorers and the Cygnus Knights have joined forces to fight him, but their strength isn't enough.

They simply don't know what they're up against. You know better than anyone how evil the Black Mage is. Will you help them?

You should find Dances with Balrog, the Warrior chief in Victoria Island, and offer to join the Maple Alliance. We have to join forces if we're going to win.

Hey, you're supposed to be one of the Heroes! Act like it!

Ah, you must be Aran, the warrior woken from ice...we finally meet. What brings you to Perion?

I wish to join the Maple Alliance.

You do? Ah, I had prayed this day would come... You will be of immense help to the Alliance. Everyone will be overjoyed to hear this news.

But first, you must work hard to regain your full strength. You aren't what you used to be... It will be a great effort. I will contact you when the time to fight together comes.
