lv59: the great gubal library
After the grueling battle with Ravana, the group was left battered and bruised. They were struggling to figure out how they could get to Azys Lla, where the archbishop had fled. Ysayle spoke up, "The archbishop has fled to Azys Lla, but no one can enter there without a crystal."
"Then what do we do?" Warrior of Light asked, frustration evident in their voice.
Alphinaud stepped forward, "Nanamo can help us. I'll contact her right away." He quickly fished out his linkpearl and made the call.
Seconds later, they saw a familiar figure teleporting towards them. It was Nanamo. "What can I do for you, my friends?" she asked.
"We need a crystal to enter Azys Lla," Alphinaud explained.
Nanamo nodded, "I see. Let me get it for you." She closed her eyes and began to concentrate. Suddenly, she opened her eyes, "I'm sorry, but I don't have the right crystal. I'll try to find it for you."
She was about to teleport away when Y'shtola stepped forward, "Wait, let us help you."
Nanamo looked at Y'shtola skeptically, "And how exactly can you help me?"
"We know someone who can help," Y'shtola said, a confident grin spreading across her face.
"Who?" Nanamo asked, clearly curious.
"Urianger," Y'shtola replied, "He has an incredible knowledge of the aetherial sea. He can guide us to the crystal."
Urianger nodded in agreement, "Aye, I can help you find the crystal, but it will not be an easy task."
"How so?" Warrior of Light asked.
Urianger explained, "The crystal can only be found in the Dravnian Hinterlands. But the Hinterlands are full of corrupted experiments."
The group didn't waste any time and started their journey towards the Dravnian Hinterlands. As they entered the Hinterlands, Urianger began to explain, "This place was once a haven for dragons, but now it's infested with corrupted experiments."
Y'shtola scoffed, "Just our luck."
As they spread out to search for the crystal, Estinien joined Ysayle in her search. As they looked for the crystal, they talked about their feelings for each other. "I love you, Ysayle," Estinien said, looking deeply into her eyes.
Ysayle's heart fluttered, "I love you too, Estinien." They kissed passionately.
Meanwhile, the Warrior of Light had stumbled upon the crystal. They were about to pick it up when a corrupted experiment appeared out of nowhere and stole the crystal.
Without any hesitation, the group went after the experiment. They chased it through the Hinterlands, their weapons clashing against the experiment's scaly hide. Finally, they cornered it in the Great Gubal Library.
With the corrupted experiment defeated, the group finally got their hands on the crystal they needed to enter Azys Lla. As they stood in front of the towering structure, they were struck by its magnificence. It was a massive city in the sky, teeming with life and power.
As they approached the entrance, they were greeted by a group of heavily armed guards. The group stood ready for battle, but Urianger stepped forward and explained their purpose.
The guards nodded and let them through. As they made their way deeper into the city, they could feel the tension in the air. They knew that they were getting closer to the archbishop and his minions.
