Vanoss and his friends make their way down the platform elevator and return to the site of grace. But they are met with a spectral of the giant in the room. They approach the spectral giant and are actually familiar to who it is. It is the giant blacksmith name Iji who they met outside of the ruins leading to the manor. He looks to see the three of them.

Iji: Oh, so you three were the ones. Lady Ranni has explained everything. Again, I am Iji. The Carian royal family's dedicated blacksmith, and Lady Ranni's war counsellor. I am told that you three are searching for Nokron with Blaidd

Delirious: I'm sorry what?

Wildcat: nokron?

Iji: it's a place blaidd has been looking for

Vanoss: ok

Iji: but I will give you whatever guidance I can. And pray for your success. My apologies for the misleading words of warning

Vanoss: it's ok

Iji: I never imagined that an audience, let alone service to Lady Ranni was in y'all's fate. I, for one, should have seen it, but I did not. Do forgive me, my fellows. Let us give all that we can of ourselves. Together, for Lady Ranni

Delirious: yes

They continue on the next room as the Iji spectral disappears. In the next room they see a spectral of blaidd by the wall as they approach him.

Blaidd: Ahh, a little while, friends. Blaidd, if you’ve forgotten. Glad to have you three in the service of mistress Ranni

Vanoss: ya but it's del that got us joining her

Blaidd: no matter, Well. Getting right to business… I’m still in Limgrave. The eternal city of Nokron lies somewhere at the bottom of this land. I’m planning to go below through the well in the Mistwood. See if I can’t find the road to Nokron from there…

Wildcat: you want us to meet you?

Blaidd: if you want to yes.... Head back to the mistwoods and look for a structure that take you down to where I'm going

Wildcat: ok, well see you there

Blaidd spectral disappears as the guys make their way outside. But as they around to leave the tower they meet another spectral of someone they never seen before. This one wears a silver mask with a giant hat and a dark robe like attire. They approach him to see him and meet him as well.

???: I see... You must be Ranni's new hirelings

Vanoss: we are and my-

???: Yes, yes, I've heard all about you three

Vanoss: ok

Delirious: who are you?

Seluvis: I am Seluvis, preceptor in the sorcerous arts

Delirious: sorcerous art, sounds interesting

Seluvis: why is that, are you a sorcerer?

Delirious: why yes I am

Seluvis: well my wares will be available soon

Delirious: ok

Seluvis: I don't know what it is the mistress sees in a provincial Tarnished like you three, but since we have the misfortune of serving the same Lady, I ask that you kindly try not to drag us all down with you

Vanoss: we won't

Seluvis: good now meet with me

Wildcat: alright but where?
