Main quest scenario taking place in Ventos Prairie.
==Campaign==
===Makar's unwelcoming gaze and Shaleen's Favor===
Arriving at the Ventos Prairie, the Envoy can feel a gentle and cool breeze but can't hide their nervousness. The Makar itself stares at the Envoy's with an arrogant and unwelcoming gaze, clearly, most of them are despising the human presence. The Envoy remains steadfast despite suspicious looks and immediately heads to the residence of the Makar King. Just when the Envoy was about to report to the Makar King, Leo, his bodyguard halts the Envoy with roars and makes swift movements, not letting the Envoy and its Eidolon partner reach him. The Envoy then explains their purposes, which is to secure the alliances between Makar of the Ventos Prairie (Windwalker Tribe) and the church to battle the Shadow Knight. Leo roars in arrogant that they will never secure an alliance with weak humans and telling the Envoy to inform the Grand Bishop to chew on it.
The Envoy is at a loss of due to a sudden shut down right at the gate, the Envoy then utilize its relationship with Odum Ryan, the Third Prince of Makar. This surprises the Bodyguard and gains other Makar's attention. Before the conversation continues, Leo, the Makar King, interrupts them, stating that he disowned his Third son and ordered the Envoy to turn back. Just as the Envoy was about to go back, Shalen, a Female Makar Warrior, stops the Envoy and wishes to speak.
Shalen looks around suspiciously for a moment before questioning the Envoy. She then asks the Envoy how Envoy knows Odum. The Envoy then tells the encounter with Odum at Crescent Hill and have been assigned here to secure an alliance with the Makars to combat the Shadow Knight. Shaleen then offers the Envoy a job so she can help the Envoy. The first task she gives is to take back the Braided Rope from the Grassland Jerboas.
The Envoy sets out to defeat the Grassland Jerboas and securing her Braided Rope. After getting what The Envoy needed, The Envoy returns to Shaleen and handing her the rope. She asks the Envoy if it remembers the rope and the Envoy remembers it as it was one of the ropes that Odum wears. Surprised, she finally was convinced once the Envoy verifies it. She explains that she was once of Odum's followers as the braided rope's styles are depending on the leader.
She reveals her identity as the Former Third Prince Odum Ryan's Prime Stone Guard Shaleen. Every since Odum left, there was an uprising using Odum's name. The King was furious and declared that he will disown Odum if they didn't stop. She was certain that Odum did not do this as he was loyal to his father. She advises the Envoy not to upbringing any Odum's name to Leo, rather focusing on the remaining two princes that are battling for the throne and have a chance to secure the alliance when they're in power. The Envoy notices this as they need to work from different angles, so Envoy asks where they can start. Shaleen then recommends Envoy to talk with Palo, who lives at the north and she believes that he's training right now, but the Envoy must inform his confidant while the Second Prince, Para, lives to the East.
===Jobs from The Second Prince===
Meeting with Palo's confidant, he stops the Envoy, but he immediately turns the Envoy down, but Envoy insists that it was an urgent matter. Palo yells from the curtain, and the confidant informs Palo that it was just a human (Envoy). Palo walks out from his house, and when the Envoy tells its reason, he laughs, telling that is the Envoy was an idiot. He was fed up with humanity's errands and told the Envoy to scram. The Envoy leaves, knowing that there was no more room for discussion. The Envoy then goes to Para Ryan, the second prince. The Envoy introduces themselves and explains the reason why the Envoy came here. Palo looks at the Envoy disdainfully, believing the church comes for them to beg for help. He shows his muscles that strength is how they survive. He and his confidants laugh, stating that humans like Envoy are weak and must beg for help.
Palo was irritated when the Envoy stares at him, The Envoy shakes its head, stating its intention to secure an alliance between the Church and Makar tribe. He kept saying that humans are weak and why he wants to ally with them. Before the Envoy got angry, he gave the Envoy chance to prove themselves so he considers the alliance. He sends the Envoy to capture Windrunner Jerboas where Makars also got a hard time to catch them. The Eidolon also feel irritated about Palo's behavior, but nonetheless, they set out to get the job done. The job was rather quick since The Envoy can capture it with just a mousetrap. Returning to Palo and handing over the Jerboas, which left him a hint of rage while speechless, didn't expect the Envoy can capture it so easily. But Baird, one of the Warrior interrupts him, stating that the Envoy may be captured the ill one, not the healthy one. He was convinced that humans could use trickery to capture the Jerboas, and so Baird proposes another job that can't be done with trickery, which he recommends the Envoy to take the same test as his own warriors did. Grinning cruelly, Palo accepts the suggestion.
The Envoy follows Baird and asks about the test and this test can't be outsmarted. He wants the Envoy to defeat the Hoofbeast meat, takes its meat and he will examine it since he knew what fresh, and healthy Hoofbeast tastes like. The Envoy sets out to defeat Shaggy Hoofbeast and Bighorn Hoofbeast to take the meat.  Once the Envoy gets the meats requested, Envoy returns to Baird. When the Envoy reports of the fight, Para butts in, asking if the Envoy actually defeats the Hoofbeast. Baird then whispers something to Para's ear, but noticing his cruel smile, knowing that this is far from over. Para immediately assigns the Envoy into Lion's Roar Army temporarily and if the Envoy can handle Baird's mission, then he can consider the alliance. Para warns the Envoy that this job is not as easy as it takes while the Envoy hides its doubt.
Baird tells the Envoy that Envoy's head could be beheaded if he hadn't interfered. He informs the Envoy that he's getting ready to compete for the right of the succession and he was ordered to defeat the rebels before the competition starts. The Envoy asks about the rebels and he informs that the rebels were led by Micha, a Makar General, and Odum's lover, Tatiana. They decide to rebel with the motives to restore Odum's honor while doubt that this was a part of Micha's plan. He wants the Envoy to gather Stable Wind Grass or his plan will come in naught. Once the Envoy collects it and returns to Baird, asking what is the Wind Grass for. Baird explains that there was a difference in culture between humans and Makar. The Envoy needs to understand that even the opponent was Odum's lover rebels, they still respect each other. When the losers conquered, they must wear the victor's braids as a sign of acknowledging defeat and respect to the victors. That culture was important to them and the Envoy finally understands what happened when Odum pledges its loyalty to the Envoy, it was a sign of loyalty and submission.
Baird informs the Envoy that Micha is afraid that he may not win the competition, so he rise the rebellion in the name of Odum Ryan.
Baird knows that this is going to be a tough battle as he will assign the Envoy to the advance team, wiping out any immediate threat to the main force. Knowing that they will go through Rhino's territory (Stonescale and Armored Rhino), they need the Envoy to shoo them off or they will not leave the territory unscathed. Another problem is his army's still missing a lot of supplies, and he asks the Envoy if the Envoy can help him skin the Rhinos to help him out since hides from the Armored Rhinos will be perfect for them. The Envoy clears the way while also skinning the hide from the Armored Rhino. When the Envoy returns, he got a report that the advance team saw the Envoy did good work, patting the Envoy's shoulder. The Envoy also gives the hide back and he tells the Envoy that his armor will do the rest. He wants the Envoy to rest since the next job can be challenging.
Baird starts to respect the Envoy since they exceed his expectations while murmuring that Shaleen was right about the Envoy. He will inform the Envoy's success to the Palo Ryan, but the job is not done yet since there was still a lot of jobs to be done. He then assigned the Envoy to recon the rebels since the Envoy's size can make them sneak into the camp easily. The Envoy goes to recon but found one of the rebels lay wounded at the entrance. The Envoy found Tiny was seriously injured while he laments that he never expect that someone would pass by.
===Tiny's last wish===
Tiny warns the Envoy that the Ferocious Wolf can smell the blood from miles away. The Envoy immediately defeats any wolves that came to them due to Tiny's injuries. Once the wolves were driven out, the Envoy checks back on Tiny, realizing that he was on his last breath. Tiny then gives the Envoy a secret before he dies. The Envoy consults with its Eidolon partner but there is nothing that they can do.
Tiny then explains that Micha's true objective was to harm the King as he got no interest in the battle for the thrones, he deceives other Makars including Tatiana. He tells the truth that he was fleeing from the rebel camp with some pieces of evidence to prove that Micha is deceiving them, but he was pursued and managed to escape. He wants the Envoy to collect the evidence from the hands of the wolves that took possession of his bag. He wants the Envoy to give the bag to Tatiana along with the bracelet since she knows what to do. Tiny's hand squeezes tightly before the Envoy can ask more, telling the Envoy that they should avoid this false war before he closes his eyes for eternity. The Envoy takes his bracelet and hunts the Bloodthirsty Wolf. After some hunt, the Envoy manages to seize the bag back. The Envoy immediately sneaks into the camp and met with Tatiana.
The Envoy reports to Tatiana about what happened to Tiny while expressing regret that there was nothing the Envoy could do from saving him. Tatiana looks at the bracelet with disbelief but suddenly gives way to fury.
===Working With Tatiana===
Tatiana was enraged, thinking that the Envoy did this to Tiny. Before the Envoy can explain, she draws her weapon and attacks the Envoy. The Envoy got no choice but to defeat her so she can calm down. Despite she was beaten and exhausted, she tries to gather herself to attack again. Glaring at the Envoy, the Envoy immediately uses this chance to explain what's going on. She growls, doubting the Envoy's words. The Envoy tell what was inside the bag while she watches the Envoy warily. There, she found Odum's handwriting about his decision to leave and it was meant for her.
Tatiana realizes that Micha has deceived them as the King didn't exile her husband, rather he left by his own will. She did not know what to do after what they've done. Betraying the king, destroying his trust, believe that it's too late to change it. Both the Envoy and Tatiana didn't know what to say about this but she then decides that she will bring Micha down. She then asks the Envoy to defeat Micha to end the rebels. Agreed to the proposal, she wants the Envoy to defeat the Camp Searcher to deal a crippling blow against Micha's unit. With the Camp Searcher routed, the Envoy reports back to Tatiana while she makes a terrifying expression that suspecting one of them is responsible for killing Tiny. She made her resolve by to ensure that Tiny's death is not in vain, her husband's message reaches everyone and crushes the rebels. Her eyes look wet remembering Tiny.
She knows that this thing won't end with just the Envoy and Tatiana so she wants the Envoy to spread the words out. She gave the letter about Micha to the Envoy, wanting the Envoy to spread her words to those who follow Odum, knowing that they got unwavering loyalty against Odum. She gave the Envoy authority to act in her name with any of those who oppose her will be allowed to deal with. The Envoy carries out her orders by delivering Tatiana's words to the rebels. Many of them join her, but some need to be dealt with. Once everything was taken care of, the Envoy reports what happened. She knows this and while apologizes for involving the Envoy, she continues to ask for the Envoy's assistance. She then gathers her followers, announcing that she will fight Micha.
Scout reports that Micha's unit starts to move while she needs to remember his original plan. After some thinking, she remembers that he plans to gather his spellcasters together to launch a magical assault. If the attack succeeded, it will plummet Makar Army's morale and can consider a surrender. She was aware that he may change his plans, but she knows what it needs to be done. She will assign some of her warriors to escort the Envoy to ensure that the casters are defeated before they can gather. Once the Rebel Caster has been taken care of, the Envoy reports back to Tatiana while she was thinking to figure out Micha's next plan. Once she heard the report, she believes that more rebels will join her and Micha have to watch his back.
Tatiana knows Micha's unit style that they're used being on the offensive, believing that if they got attacked from multiple sides, they will be fall apart. She then assigns the Envoy to burn up their supplies to lure most of the troops to put out the fire while she will lead her troops to surround him. The warriors are also ready while offering the Envoy to join in the celebration. The Envoy nods that everyone deserves a break before the siege starts. The Envoy quickly torches the supplies  The Envoy returns and her prediction was right thanks to her grandfather's guidance. Micha's defensive line collapse and they did not expect a strike from within. Watching the rebels in disarray, she smiled and throws a banquet.
Later, a scout reports that they have found Micha, but Micha's unit has dug in and his defense line becoming airtight. She ordered her men to retreat temporarily while she assigns the Squad 8 Captain to lure out the beastmaster and the wolves. The Envoy will need to find a right to strike but just the Envoy was about to leave, she stops the Envoy. She changes the Envoy's objective, to disarm and capture the beastmasters, is hoping to make them join her cause. The Envoy defeats the wolves and steals the animal training whip. Once the Envoy hands it over to Tatiana, she was pleased with the Envoy's efforts, hoping the war will ends soon.
She wonders if Micha can guess that it will end this way as his defenses are crumbling. She wants to challenge him, but she knows that she's not strong enough to defeat him. She offers the Envoy to be her champion, knowing this will be an honorable task due to the long tradition that allowing the champion to represent one in the combat. While the personal strength is desirable, so is having worthy warriors at the Envoy's command. She knows she asks this too much, but she saw the Envoy as the greatest warrior she ever met. The Envoy agrees to her proposal and she wants the Envoy to defeat Micha and represent him along with the letter to the King.
The Envoy manages to subjugate him and he's still holding his head high, as expected of a Makar when the Envoy apprehends him and forcing the rest to surrender. Returning to the Ventos Tribe home, the Envoy brings Micha to Leo. Upon arriving, Leo demands an explanation of why Micha betrayed him. Micha remains silent and staring at Leo. He then orders the guard to bring Micha to the cells. He also calls Tatiana and she's willing to accept any punishment that befalls upon her while the Envoy knew that there is nothing the Envoy can do. Leo admits her mistakes while he's proud that she remains loyal to his son and he forgives her along with Odum. Tatiana embraces Leo gratefully hearing that.
Once the verdict has passed, Leo looks at the Envoy and Envoy feels nervous when he gazes at the Envoy. Examining the Envoy closely, he wonders how strong the Envoy will get. He offers the Envoy to take part in the battle competition this year since it will determine who will lead his tribe. He informs Envoy that the competitor is selected from the fiercest and strongest warriors. To be invited is a great honor. If the Envoy can win this, he will give his word that he will ally with the Church. Both Princes, Palo, and Para are protesting against it since the alliance negotiations have no business in the competition. Leo yells at them, making them silent. He wants the Envoy to report to Kadeshar at the arena once the Envoy make its decision. While the Envoy thanks Leo, for the kindness, Envoy still worried about both princes, but it left the Envoy a no choice.
The Envoy goes away and lost in thought for a while, knowing that this battle could be a difficult one, not just because Makars are powerful warriors. The Eidolon partner consults the Envoy, knowing that everything will be fine since Eidolon will stand with the Envoy's partner all the time. This brings Envoy confidence as they remember their hardship until this moment. The Envoy then decides to register at Leyline Arena for competition. The Envoy then heads to Shep and Pascal.
Shep looks at the Envoy contemptuously, still believing that the Envoy uses trickery to defeat Micha. He felt sick to have a human holding a Makar weapon, but he can't object to the King. While he's not fond of the Envoy, he will make sure the Envoy got the ingredients needed and he will get it done. Pascal looks at the Envoy while the Envoy introduces themselves while stating that she could be famous soon enough. But, she looks annoyed as she saw the Envoy was tiny and weak, not sure how to design armor for the Envoy to wear. The Envoy registers themselves to Kadeshar, the battle arena caretaker. The first thing Kadeshar say was to assure the Envoy that the competitors will go easy on the Envoy as the Envoy will be humiliated, but enough to survive.
