[edit] Walkthrough
Once you meet up with the four NPCs (Su, Sister Tai, Professor Gai, and Kai Ying) at the Linkei Township, you will be attacked by Sickened Guards and Afflicted from both sides after a short dialogue sequence. Although Professor Gai and Kai Ying will only attack with their wands, Sister Tai will heal your party with Orison of Healing and Su will cast Life Siphon on enemies. You will want to stay by these four throughout the quest to make sure you capitalize on their assistance.
There are two methods to beating this quest. The first is to have your entire party sit by the four NPCs, and simply wait for the Afflicted to come to you. This method is effective as the NPCs will always be fighting right at your side, however the battle will become very chaotic - and possibly overwhelming. The other method is to take a more liberal approach by moving your team away from the NPCs to quickly take out an approaching group of enemies. Although this method reduces the clutter and chaos of the battle, you must always watch the NPCs to make sure that they are not being overwhelmed, especially when the Afflicted Boss comes. It is very effective in both methods to leave spirits such as Pain, Shadowsong, and Favorable Winds as well as ranger traps in the middle of the NPCs as to maximize their effectiveness throughout the battle.
Once you complete the quest, the four NPCs will follow you around until you go to Zen Daijun. If you do To The Rescue first, it will make several of the other quests in Haiju Lagoon much easier, as the NPCs will continue to help you fight.
[edit] Dialogues
[edit] Initial dialogue
Zho
- "Master Togo has sent Su, Sister Tai, Kai Ying, and Professor Gai to Haiju Lagoon to check on the status of Linkei Township. He asks that you join them when you are finished here; aside from Su, they are not... well, they are not the hardiest group, and will need some help."
- Accept: "I will leave immediately."
- Decline: "I am not ready to travel."
- When asked about quest: "Your instructions are to meet the others in Linkei Township in Haiju Lagoon. Su, Sister Tai, Kai Ying, and Professor Gai will need your assistance, I am sure."
[edit] Intermediate dialogue
- Professor Gai: "The cavalry arrives at a most opportune monent! Although I had anticipated a rather more...how shall I put it...impressive cavalry."
- Sister Tai: "I am certain Master Togo knew what he was doing when he sent <Player Name>, Professor. Remember, we must remain calm even in the face of the most daunting enemy."
- Su: "Remain calm? Little sister, we have afflicted coming at us from all sides! At least there will be no shortage of corpses...."
- Kai Ying: "Things may look dire, <Player Name>, but take heart; perhaps we will live on as a pair of Su's minions."
- Kai Ying: "We made it! Life is full of surprises, eh, Professor?"
- Professor Gai: "Indubitably."
- Su: "Hey, <Player Name>! Come over here. I need to talk to you."
[edit] Reward dialogue
Su
- "Thank you for the help, <player name>. You have come far since your arrival at the monastery. Now, we have more business we must attend to."
