Dialogue
 * [Difficulty: Master]
 * What are these "scriptures," anyway? They have brought demons and worse to attack the Halls of Chokhin! Oh, this is not good, not good at all. We must protect the scholars inside. Please, find them and tell them to come here where they will be out of harm's way. Then, if you can, clear this sacred place of these most unwelcome guests!


 * Accept: I will defend the scholars and these sacred halls.
 * Reject: Time for the nerds to get what's coming to them. What good is your knowledge now, book worms? Mwuhahaha!

Reward Dialogue
 * Chokhin? Attacked? What monstrous work is afoot here? I will seek the guidance of Mehtu the Wise. He would surely know how to respond to such an egregious offense!

Walkthrough
After you run around and talk to all the scholars distributed throughout the palace, they will all run to the middle of the palace where Kachok is standing. Margonites will then begin spawning in the clearing at the entrance to the palace, and two groups of four will be sent out periodically. The scholars are apparently not that smart, and will attack margonites if they come near. They are level 10 and die almost instantly, so don't let the margonites enter into aggro range of any scholars. After the first few groups come, it may be best to approach the margonite group at the entrance of the palace and draw groups out. Make sure you split your group in half and verify that there are no margonite groups en route down both sides of the palace before engaging them at their spawn point. Margonites are not hard to deal with if a competent bonding monk is present.
