Dialogue
 * "Demons assault us daily. Abaddon moves ever closer to freeing himself. Now one of my patrols has gone missing. The particular one, we call them the Oddbodies, is of questionable merit and abilit, but I need every being who is willing to fight. Still, it would be foolish of me to throw more guards away in a failed rescue attempt when the lost scouts may already be dead."


 * "Perhaps you can find Captain Yithlis and his patrol? If you accept this task, speak to Archivist Zisthus; he may have some information that you will find valuable."


 * Accept: Captain Yithlis deserves the same loyalty as any other soldier. I'll find him and his patrol.
 * Reject: They're probably dead. Not much of a loss, though.

Intermediate Dialog
 * Captain Yithlis: "You were sent by Commander Thurnis? I didn't think he'd risk sending anyone to look for us. We were sent on an intelligence gathering mission and uncovered some very disturbing things. Our enemies caught us on our return, pursuing us for the past two days. But we can run no more. At any moment another horde of demons could attack."

Reward Dialog
 * "Hurrah! We wouldn't have survived without you, my friend. For what it's worth, you have the gratitude of the Oddbodies."

Walkthrough
Exit into Nightfallen Jahai and head northwest. The patrol will be located past a group of Margonites. The will be surrounded by two small groups of Torment Demons. As soon as you come close enough, they will join your party as allies and be assaulted by those groups. The combined strength of your group and theirs (14 members) will make the fight straightforward.

After this fight, 4 big waves of Torment Demons will come from the north. After that the quest will be done. If you choose to take the follow up right there, watch out for a patrol that comes from the west.
