Alisaie 	Were you caught in mist on your way here? The sprayers keep the air humid, so the habitat feels as close as possible to a natural forest.
 	
Yshtola 	This is the foremost material archive in Sharlayan. I should love to explore its treasures shelf by shelf, but I fear we have little time for such indulgences.
 	
Krile 	Don't worry about me, I'm hale and healthy! In fact, I'm beginning to suspect that...
Krile 	...Nay, let's discuss this later. The investigation demands our undivided attention.
 	
Alphinaud 	Well, we won't learn anything of value standing out here. Let us proceed into the main building and speak with the custodian.
 	
Alphinaud 	Greetings. We are here to peruse the Archeion's vaults.
Guideofthearcheion 	Peruse? You are clearly not gleaners, then. Might I ask your affiliation?
Krile 	We belong to the Students of Baldesion, but...is that relevant? I was given to believe that the vaults─those open to the public, at least─were...open to the public.
Guideofthearcheion 	Ordinarily, yes, that would be the case. At present, however, access is restricted. Only persons directly involved in the reorganization efforts are permitted to enter.
Yshtola 	Not us, then. I suppose we had better move along to another facility.
Krile 	This building has a lift which connects to the middle tier, yes? Might we at least make use of that?
Guideofthearcheion 	That service has also been suspended, I am afraid. For the time being, priority has been given over to the conveyance of inventory.
Alisaie 	What, so this is as far as we can go!?
Guideofthearcheion 	I apologize for the inconvenience. Please come again after our restructuring operation is concluded.
Alisaie 	By that time, it will be too late. And we were so close to getting answers...
Yshtola 	We need to rethink our approach. Let us step outside for the moment, shall we?
Guideofthearcheion 	...Students of Baldesion. Hmph.
 	
Alphinaud 	The Forum must be wary of exposure indeed to so heavily restrict the use of public institutions...
 	
Alisaie 	If they're going to close off facilities, then they ought to announce it! The students must be furious!
 	
Krile 	Labyrinthos is constructed in the shape of a mortar. This upper layer is called the “Outer Circuit,” and the “Medial Circuit” lies one tier below us...
 	
Tiredstaff04363 	Sleep... I need sleep...
 	
Troubledstudent04363	How can they close the Archeion? I mean, really...
 	
Yshtola 	We are at an impasse. As we have no other leads, I should like to pursue this one further...
Yshtola 	But I doubt that our stone-faced custodian will be swayed by heartfelt pleas. We must seek another means to access the lower levels.
Yshtola 	'Tis likely that the people in this area are involved in the restructuring in one way or another. If we were to ingratiate ourselves, they might allow us to accompany them on the lift.
Yshtola 	Let us ask around. Surely someone is in need of a few strong backs to lighten the load.
 	
Tiredstaff04363 	What's that? Take you down on the lift with me? Sorry, but not a chance. I've been up and down all day, and only now have I finally found a spare moment to rest.
Tiredstaff04363 	I did see a gleaner fellow heading out the gate there, though. Shouldering a large pack─engaged in some manner of task. Maybe he'll be headed down below after he's done with...whatever it is he's doing.
Tiredstaff04363 	Please, even talking is an effort. Go and bother that gleaner I told you about...
Troubledstudent04363	Am I taking the lift? Oh, no, we're just students. They won't let us into the Archeion, even though we found...
Troubledstudent04363	...Actually, we have no idea what it is we found─there's no record of such a creature anywhere. But it was wandering around Tranquility, and so we thought to donate it to the vaults.

Troubledstudent04363	Oddest little squeal, don't you think? Anyway, I suppose we'll have to take care of it until the Archeion is open again.
Troubledstudent04363	At first we thought it might have escaped from one of the research laboratories, but when we reported our find to the Studium, they were just as dumbfounded as we were...
Troubledstudent04363	If it truly is a newly discovered species, we could have our names appear in a gazette!

Erenville 	Quiet. You'll frighten it away.
Erenville 	...Ah, it's you again. I don't mean to be rude, but I'm in the middle of another task. The cloudkin I need to capture is close. Very close.
Erenville 	Hm? You wish to help me with this, too? You spend your time in unusual ways, my friend.
Erenville 	Still, two hunters are generally better than one. Very well.
Erenville 	The canal here is a common gathering spot for birds of all kinds, but the one I'm after today is the hornbill.
Erenville 	Its feathers are green, and its cry a distinctive “caw.” Single it out and shoot it with this sleeping dart.
Erenville 	The effects are short-lived, so I'll lie in wait down by the riverbank to claim our quarry. Be sure to hit the right one!
 	
Alisaie 	I took a quick peek inside, but it's awfully dark in there...
 	
Yshtola 	The Medial Circuit which Erenville mentioned is the tier directly below us.
Yshtola 	Unlike the lowest level of Labyrinthos with its rigid security, one can usually roam the middle layer quite freely. Let us see what we might find.
 	
Krile 	I never would've noticed this cave on my own! Thank the Scholar that Erenville knew of it...and that you were there to persuade him to share.
 	
Alphinaud 	This must be it─the entrance to the mineshaft.
Alphinaud 	'Tis faint, but I hear something moving within... Creatures homed there by the researchers, you think?
Alphinaud 	Well, slavering beasts aside, we will need to watch our footing. We should tighten our straps and such before we continue.
Quest complete. 	Quest complete.
