Dialogue
 * "I'm sorry to bother you, but I've heard some impressive things about you, and I think only someone with your skill and bravery can help me with my problem.


 * I think my brother Orion has fallen in with the Royalists. He's not wicked, just reckless and impulsive. When Sir Tydus expelled him from the Academy, he became embittered toward the army, but I don't think he realizes how serious this is. I don't want him to throw his life away for foolish pride. Do you think you could find him and tell him what I said? Perhaps convince him to come home?


 * I don't know exactly where he is, but I imagine Ralena Stormbringer in Foible's Fair might. Orion was always trying to impress her. He might have told her something."


 * Accept: "I'll try to bring your brother home."
 * Reject: "Orion must live with his decisions."

Intermediate Dialogue 1 (Ralena Stormbringer)
 * "Aye, I can tell you where Orion went. He headed out northwest past the road. He thinks he'll find some Royalists there, but Vassar thinks it won't work. I hope he doesn't get himself killed, but he can't expect me to go tromping all over the mountain looking for him."

Intermediate Dialogue 2 (Orion Elek)
 * "What's this? Vassar is at the Fair, cozying up to Ralena!? Curse the day I was born! What am I doing out here? The revolution will have to wait!"

Intermediate Dialogue 3
 * Orion Elek: "I'm coming, Ralena!"

Reward Dialogue
 * "Praise Dwayna! I'm so relieved to know he's left the Royalists. I feared he was lost to us forever."

Walkthrough
Talk to Sandre Elek and learn of her brother who has run off to join the Royalists. Map travel to the Ashford Abbey and exit into Lakeside County, turn right and go into Wizard's Folly, follow the path up the hill to Foible's Fair. Talk to Ralena Stormbringer to learn of Orion's current location in the western woods of Wizard's Folly.

Either leave Foible's Fair, go back down the hill and head west into the woods and keep following the road until you see Orion. Or if you have already visited The Barradin Estate, map travelling there, exiting into Green Hills County, and taking the south Wizard's Folly entrance, may be quicker and involve less fighting to reach Orion.

After talking to Orion, you can return to Sandre in Ascalon City for your reward.
