*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''It may be hard for you to imagine, but before the Demon King, the Demon Realm was much more chaotic.''

*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''Wow... This palace is huge. This is the first time seeing something so picturesque in the Red Demon Territory.''
*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''It looks like the story of the Queen of Gold owning the best property in the Red Demon Territory is true.''
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''It's quiet. No one's out to greet us. Maybe they're not aware of our arrival?''
*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''Let's head in. We are guests with a proper invitation after all.''
*''(CREAK...)''
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain:''' ''Oooh!''
*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''Huh? What? What is it?''
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain:''' ''Good job, opening the door quietly.''
*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''I don't always slam the doors, you know.''
*''(SCREEK!!)''
*{{StoryIcon|RaS}} '''Laby:''' ''Whoa! What was that?''
*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''Oh, my bad. It's a frame the Dream Demons gave me. I completely forgot I was carrying it on my back and it caught the door frame.''
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain:''' ''I take back what I said. It's a gift for the Queen of Gold, isn't it? Be careful not to break it.''
*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''No. It's not a gift. They said to keep it on us at all times.''
*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''For us...? What's it for?''
*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''I don't know. The only thing they told me was to carry it around and not to open it.''
*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Huh, is that so? Well, I suppose they wouldn't have given us anything too suspicious.''
*''(TAP,TAP)''
*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Good job! Keep up the good work.''
*{{StoryIcon|RaS}} '''Laby:''' ''Keep up the good work!''
*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''What are you on about... Let's just move on.''
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain:''' ''(......?)''
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''Hm... Is there a holy beast inside this palace?''
*{{StoryIcon|CC}} '''Chung:''' ''I didn't hear anything about it... What's wrong?''
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''I'm sensing something. It's not exactly the same...''
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''Hm... How should I put this... I felt something similar at the volcanoes in Lanox.''
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''I guess... It's like there's a powerful being with the entire region under its influence. A guardian? Of sorts?''
*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''Guardian...? I'm not sure I understand.''
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''Hm... Have you ever had an experience where, when you go to a particular location, you feel suppressed, or like something's watching you. Maybe a sense of holiness.''
*{{StoryIcon|Aps}} '''Ara:''' ''Hm... You're saying Lanox volcano was like that? I think I may understand...''
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''You might be more sensitive as an Elf who regularly communicates with spirits.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''But we're not in immediate danger?''
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''It doesn't seem hostile at the moment, but I'll keep my senses open.''

*''[Palace of Gold Medovine Garden]''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''Welcome, conquerors of the Abyss. I thank you for responding to my invitation.''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''I apologize for the delayed greeting. I didn't think you'd come so early.''
*{{StoryIcon|Aps}} '''Ara:''' ''No, it's our honor.''
*{{StoryIcon|CC}} '''Chung:''' ''We saw you outside, so we assumed you already knew of our presence. We apologize if we were not welcome to wander around.''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''It's fine. Will you take a seat? I may not be able to serve you tea, but the sun should provide a pleasurable enough experience.''
*{{StoryIcon|CC}} '''Chung:''' ''It's quiet in the palace. We didn't encounter anyone else. Are there no other Dream Demons?''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''That's right. I ordered them to go when the Abyss began to expand.''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''Thanks to you, the worst possible outcome has been avoided. Ah, I almost forgot.''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''Thank you for ending the Abyss. Though you may not have intended to save my life, my life is undoubtedly saved thanks to you.''
*{{StoryIcon|Aps}} '''Ara:''' ''Oh, it's fine! There's no need for all that.''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''If I may ask, the Heart Core...''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''We could not salvage it.''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''Ah, huhuhu... A shame. Of course, it would have been no easy feat.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''Did you seek us in hopes for a Heart Core?''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''That is not the main reason. Of course, a Heart Core is highly coveted, but what I seek is something else.''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''Let us cut to the chase. I have two problems that need to be resolved.''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''I wish for you to handle one of them, and depending on the result, will also have you handle the other.''
*{{StoryIcon|RaS}} '''Laby:''' ''What do you want us to do?''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''... I am a collector. I spent all my life collecting valuable things. This palace reflects that.''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''Though it's quiet at the moment... In its prime, visitors from all over would form a line that goes beyond the horizon for a mere chance to see my collection.''
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''That must have been a sight.''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''But... I am growing weak. As the sun eventually sets, so too, will my empire.''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''I am in the process of getting ready for my final days.''
*{{StoryIcon|Aps}} '''Ara:''' ''That's... terrible.''
*{{StoryIcon|CC}} '''Chung:''' ''Is it because of the Abyss...?''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''The cause for my illness is something else. Though I suppose it's not completely irrelevant.''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''In any case... Due to letting my servants go, it's been troublesome to take care of the palace. I'm not sure if you're aware, but a collector's residence is usually filled to the brim with magic.''
*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Because of artifacts with all sorts of curses... or unknown spells.''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''Huhu, yes. And the whole palace is in disarray thanks to some spells going awry.''
*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Ugh... I get that. It's the worst.''
*{{StoryIcon|CC}} '''Chung:''' ''Then is the first task to find and handle the problem?''
*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''It's not... impossible, but our expertise is not exactly clean up.''
*{{StoryIcon|DB}} '''Add:''' ''I would say it's more of a 'wipe out'.''
*{{StoryIcon|Medovine}} '''Medovine:''' ''Huhuhu, like how you handled the Abyss? It's fine. There's no pressure.''
*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Hm... Alright.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''I'm sorry, but I'd like to share some words with her. Can I let you handle it?''
*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''Of course. We'll be back before you know it.''
