Here in Raga Shadi, the argons were vivisecting creatures for some reason. You know what vivisecting is, right? It's like an autopsy, except the subject isn't dead yet.<BR><BR>As grisly as that is, we want to know what the argons learned. And the way to do that is to get to the flask-like containers where they've stored something. Something important. Weirdly mutilated corpses, eh? Well, it's a clue. I have some experiments of my own to perform—nothing gory, I promise—to figure out what the argons were up to.<BR><BR>While I'm doing that, go to the Shineroot Chamber and help Platanok. It's not gonna be pleasant, whatever's in those containers, <PCNAME>. But we have to know. I trust Alecian fares well?<BR><BR>My research is, I confess, at a standstill. There are some obstacles to overcome, but perhaps your presence will change that.<BR><BR>Every journey starts somewhere. Let us begin.
