A New Friend?

You look as if a burden has been lifted from your shoulders. I hope this will be the end of your moping around, because I have an assignment for you.

Not long ago, a woman named Irena came to Ereve to pledge her service to Empress Cygnus. I was caught off guard by her looks, but her skills with the bow were rather impressive.

She told me she was traveling to Victoria Island for training. Find her, gain her trust. She will make a valuable ally. Begin your search at the Six Path Crossway. I can send you to the Six Path Crossway right now, if you want.

You must be the knight. Neinheart and Kiku told me you were quite a soldier. Did you come all the way out here just to see me?

I, uh... I guess I did. Nice to meet you.

Training in Ereve can only teach you so much, so I came out to Victoria Island for some real-world experience. There's a vast world of adventure out there just waiting for me!

You must be pretty... brave if you jumped straight to Victoria Island with no training.

I look forward to working with you!

You would be unwise to ignore this woman.

You will recognize her the moment you see her. Archers always have... a way about them.
