Our link to the Tainted Gorge is hampered by a pack of {@LinkCreature:13#300910#prowling cromoses} near the entrance.<BR><BR>Chione's the only airship pilot detailed to this section of the island. Until they replace her, we can only communicate via runners.<BR><BR>Kill the cromoses, then report to {@linkcreature:213#1025$$Sersine} down in the Tainted Gorge Outpost. Oh good. I'm glad to hear you cleared that route up for us.<BR><BR>Listen, don't underestimate the island. Remember that our troops are pulling out because of unrest in the federation. It isn't because this place is suddenly safer.<BR><BR>Stay watchful.
