Chapter 62: Queen of Gold Medovine

Queen of Gold's Palace
{{
Quest Acceptance Prerequisites Objectives
Description

The palace of the Queen of Gold located in the most ideal parts within Red Demon Territory. The El Search Party is impressed with the picturesque view, but the massive palace is silent with nary a soul greeting them.

Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Noah: Wow... This palace is huge. This is the first time seeing something so picturesque in the Red Demon Territory.
  • Ciel: It looks like the story of the Queen of Gold owning the best property in the Red Demon Territory is true.
  • Eve: It's quiet. No one's out to greet us. Maybe they're not aware of our arrival?
  • Elesis: Let's head in. We are guests with a proper invitation after all.
  • (CREAK...)
  • Ain: Oooh!
  • Elsword: Huh? What? What is it?
  • Ain: Good job, opening the door quietly.
  • Elsword: I don't always slam the doors, you know.
  • (SCREEK!!)
  • Laby: Whoa! What was that?
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Elsword: No. It's not a gift. They said to keep it on us at all times.
  • Ciel: For us...? What's it for?
  • Elsword: I don't know. The only thing they told me was to carry it around and not to open it.
  • Aisha: Huh, is that so? Well, I suppose they wouldn't have given us anything too suspicious.
  • (TAP,TAP)
  • Aisha: Good job! Keep up the good work.
  • Laby: Keep up the good work!
  • Elsword: What are you on about... Let's just move on.
  • Ain: (......?)
  • Rena: Hm... Is there a holy beast inside this palace?
  • Chung: I didn't hear anything about it... What's wrong?
  • Rena: I'm sensing something. It's not exactly the same...
  • Rena: Hm... How should I put this... I felt something similar at the volcanoes in Lanox.
  • Rena: I guess... It's like there's a powerful being with the entire region under its influence. A guardian? Of sorts?
  • Noah: Guardian...? I'm not sure I understand.
  • 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.
  • Ara: Hm... You're saying Lanox volcano was like that? I think I may understand...
  • Eve: You might be more sensitive as an Elf who regularly communicates with spirits.
  • Lu: But we're not in immediate danger?
  • Rena: It doesn't seem hostile at the moment, but I'll keep my senses open.
  • [Palace of Gold Medovine Garden]
  • Medovine: Welcome, conquerors of the Abyss. I thank you for responding to my invitation.
  • Medovine: I apologize for the delayed greeting. I didn't think you'd come so early.
  • Ara: No, it's our honor.
  • Chung: We saw you outside, so we assumed you already knew of our presence. We apologize if we were not welcome to wander around.
  • 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.
  • Chung: It's quiet in the palace. We didn't encounter anyone else. Are there no other Dream Demons?
  • Medovine: That's right. I ordered them to go when the Abyss began to expand.
  • Medovine: Thanks to you, the worst possible outcome has been avoided. Ah, I almost forgot.
  • 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.
  • Ara: Oh, it's fine! There's no need for all that.
  • Medovine: If I may ask, the Heart Core...
  • Raven: We could not salvage it.
  • Medovine: Ah, huhuhu... A shame. Of course, it would have been no easy feat.
  • Noah: Did you seek us in hopes for a Heart Core?
  • Medovine: That is not the main reason. Of course, a Heart Core is highly coveted, but what I seek is something else.
  • Medovine: Let us cut to the chase. I have two problems that need to be resolved.
  • Medovine: I wish for you to handle one of them, and depending on the result, will also have you handle the other.
  • Laby: What do you want us to do?
  • Medovine: ... I am a collector. I spent all my life collecting valuable things. This palace reflects that.
  • 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.
  • Rena: That must have been a sight.
  • Medovine: But... I am growing weak. As the sun eventually sets, so too, will my empire.
  • Medovine: I am in the process of getting ready for my final days.
  • Ara: That's... terrible.
  • Chung: Is it because of the Abyss...?
  • Medovine: The cause for my illness is something else. Though I suppose it's not completely irrelevant.
  • 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.
  • Aisha: Because of artifacts with all sorts of curses... or unknown spells.
  • Medovine: Huhu, yes. And the whole palace is in disarray thanks to some spells going awry.
  • Aisha: Ugh... I get that. It's the worst.
  • Chung: Then is the first task to find and handle the problem?
  • Elesis: It's not... impossible, but our expertise is not exactly clean up.
  • Add: I would say it's more of a 'wipe out'.
  • Medovine: Huhuhu, like how you handled the Abyss? It's fine. There's no pressure.
  • Aisha: Hm... Alright.
  • Lu: I'm sorry, but I'd like to share some words with her. Can I let you handle it?
  • Elsword: Of course. We'll be back before you know it.

Fulfill the Request

Quest Acceptance Prerequisites Objectives
  • Complete the Queen of Gold's Palace story quest
Description

Elsword, Aisha, Rena, Elesis, Add, Ain, Laby head inside the palace to carry out Medovine's request. Rena senses the strange aura from the palace entrance become tronger.

Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Rena: (...The energy I felt outside the palace feels stronger. Does that mean it's inside?)
  • Rena: (I wonder where it is. I don't think it was the Queen.)
  • Laby: Whoa! The ceiling here is super high! And everything is so shiny!
  • Aisha: Hm... This place is also covered in restoration magic.
  • Ain: I suppose this is why she gave us free reins.
  • Laby: Sniff, sniff... It smells like tree here, too.
  • Elesis: Anyway, is this all gold? Amazing... Even if you take a little, you'd be set for life.
  • Elsword: How are you supposed to clean when the ceiling is that high...?
  • Add: You two siblings have a knack of killing the moment.
  • Aisha: Wow... The spells here are all amazing. There are complicated, high-level spells all stacked on top of each other.
  • Aisha: It's very difficult to preserve magical creatures. They're sensitive to magic, so you have to create an artificial environment, which is essentially like creating a small universe.
  • Aisha: Some of these spells need to be renewed since they're so old, but most of them are well-maintained. It must have been a lot of work to take care of an area this big.
  • Rena: You seem excited, Aisha.
  • Aisha: Hehe... If we had time, I would have loved to study everything in detail. Now's not the time though.
  • Aisha: Wait here, everyone. I just need to check a few things.
  • Rena: Oh, look everyone! The jellyfish we saw at Rigomor!
  • Ain: You're right. Oh, here's the description.
  • Ain: Mm... It says here that they're rare species that only live in cold, deep parts of the ocean. Apparently, it was a struggle to move them here, as they are very sensitive to their environment.
  • Ain: When there's a sudden change in temperature, this part that resembles fabric decays and becomes unpresentable... It's very detailed.
  • Elsword: They're actually rare? There were so many of them in Rigomor. They even had that suspicious looking jellyfish dish! Though I didn't try it.
  • Laby: You know, it feels weird that these friends inside the glass tubes are not moving at all. Even though they're pretty...
  • Ain: We did see them move before. It will seem unnatural since they're all familiar to us, yet lifeless.
  • Laby: Heh... So this is what an exhibit is. Laby likes it better when the friends are free! Even though it stinged.
  • Aisha: Hm... Alright! I think that's all of it. Shall we move on to the next location?
  • Elesis: You're done? I don't notice anything different, but I guess it's different for magicians.
  • Elsword: Good thing we have a magician with us.
  • Aisha: Do you want to learn? It's really convenient once you do.
  • Elsword: No? I'm fine as is.
  • Aisha: Nuh uh. Don't you remember what happened at the Abyss? Everyone had to rely on my magic in the darkness to go down.
  • Aisha: What would you have done if we got separated or something?
  • Elsword: Make fire.
  • Aisha: I suppose that would work, but what if you're surrounded by flammable objects?
  • Aisha: You know fire eats oxygen. What if it's an enclosed space with no clue as to when you can escape?
  • Aisha: The more people know magic, the better it is. Even the smallest contribution helps a lot.
  • Elsword: (She must have really struggled in the Abyss.)
  • Aisha: Are you listening? You're thinking about something else, aren't you!
  • Elsword: Hey, owow! I'm listening! I'll learn if I feel like it. IF I feel like it.
  • Laby: Sniff sniff... sniff... Weird. The tree smell is here, too.
  • Ain: We did pass the Plant exhibit. Maybe it's from there?
  • Laby: No. Not that. Um... It smells like really old tree root. Like something you'd smell in a forest... It doesn't fit at all!
  • Add: There must be something wrong with your nose.
  • Laby: It's true....
  • Ain: Hm... Is that the direction the smell is coming from?
  • Laby: Sniff sniff... Yeah!
  • Ain: What do you think, Ms. Elf? I think Ms. Mirror Friend is sensing the same thing you are, but in a different way.
  • Rena: Oh! Maybe! Laby, we might have missed something, so let's check all the areas again.

Tea Time with the Queen
{{
Quest Acceptance Prerequisites Objectives
  • Complete the Fulfill the Request story quest
Description

Raven, Eve, Chung, Ara, Lu, Ciel, Rose, and Noah converse more with the Queen of Gold. The Queen of Gold shows great interest in the Abyss.

Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Medovine: That's fascinating! There's not that many, even in the Demon Realm, who could come up with such a scheme.
  • Eve: I'm sure Ran knew a lot as the Earl of Abyss. The arrogance he showed when he lured us to the Abyss probably stems from that.
  • Medovine: I heard some things about the Abyss. One of them was about those who worship the Abyss.
  • Medovine: However, the only thing that's known is that they are one of many monsters found in the Abyss. I haven't heard anything about their behavior or language.
  • Medovine: Very interesting... You say they assisted you in stopping the Abyss? What is their overall motive? I wonder if that's something commonly shared between the different Abyss.
  • Medovine: I heard the Abyss formed in the Land of Steel are full of evil fiends befitting of the name 'the Land of Demise'.
  • Ciel: (... Hm? Did she just call the Land of Steel as the Land of Demise?)
  • Lu: .......
  • Medovine: Those who reached the depths of the Abyss all went mad or lost their lives.
  • Medovine: So who's to tell if you're speaking the truth, or if they're just ramblings of mad men.
  • Medovine: But you... Huhu, you, at the very least, all seem to be of a sound mind.
  • Chung: We're glad you see us that way.
  • Medovine: I am pleased with this conversation. An intellectual discussion feeds the soul. Ah...
  • Medovine: If only I have met you sooner... It's a shame we've met in my final days.
  • Ara: I don't think we could have met sooner, but I'm glad we have met before it's too late.
  • Rose: (Chung and Ara are doing well, entertaining the Queen of Gold.)
  • Zero: (They look like grandmother with her grandkids.)
  • Medovine: This... fake El is also interesting. You say it's the reason for the sudden expansion of the Abyss? This must be something from outside the Demon Realm.
  • Chung: You are right. Have you heard of a gem with mysterious power called the Dark El?
  • Ara: It is related to the reason for our journey. Even the smallest information you have will be helpful.
  • Medovine: The Dark El... Does it perhaps look like a large crystal?
  • Rose: Yes! Have you seen it before?
  • Medovine: I have heard of a beautiful beast with a spectrum of colors dropping star fragments as it flew north.
  • Zero: ... That sounds like Myuriconus.
  • Noah: It must have safely escaped the Abyss. That's a relief.
  • Medovine: Huhu, not what you've been looking for? Unfortunately, I have never heard of this, Dark El, before.
  • Medovine: If I have never heard of it, it likely does not exist. Perhaps you should find out if it's known under a different name.
  • Noah: A different name?
  • Medovine: There are many legends related to jewels. Gastrolith of Ankelones, a gem found in the body of a plant eating dragon, Infernal Star, rumored to bring great wealth and despair to its master,
  • Medovine: Heart of Surt, which is said to give the power to rule over life and death, Blooming Glass Rose, and Wave Conch Shell made with gems taken from a sea god's trident...
  • Medovine: I can go on for hours.
  • Eve: I thought it could be possible that the Dark El is called something else in the Demon Realm... But I never thought there would be so many gems with mystical powers.
  • Noah: Ah... Of course. Since most gems with mystical power in Elrios is the El, or magic stones imbued with the power of the El.
  • Noah: We assumed the Dark El would have similar legends as the El.
  • Eun: ... She seems to be enjoying this conversation.
  • Ara: I'm glad. The Queen looked very lonely and filled with sorrow.
  • Eun: Tsk, you misunderstand, Ara. There's no bigger lie than an old lady saying she has lived long enough.
  • Eun: She seems contradictory and fictitious to me. And those eyes...
  • Eun: It's not normal... Those are not the eyes of someone wistful, but of a hungry beast drooling at its prey.
  • Ara: ... Are we in danger right now?
  • Eun: That, I do not know. She still seems friendly...
  • Eun: But do not let your guard down. Stay focused and do not make eye contact. I've got a bad feeling about this.
  • Ara: Hm... I understand, Eun.
  • Medovine: Is that all? From the looks of it, it seems you still have unfinished business with me...
  • Medovine: Tell me. What do you seek?
  • Lu: ... I....
  • Lu: I want to learn more about the Land of Steel. How to get there, the current climate, rumors, anything you can tell me.
  • Medovine: Ha...?
