The architecture of Eubric Freeport is known for taking influences from cultures all over Olegaia, but there is one building in particular that stands out: the Palace of the Ji Pei family. Designed by the ambassador herself, it is built in the ornamental Xuese style, with statues and paintings of dragons to protect it from evil spirits. The three heroes ascending the front stairs feasted their eyes on the plethora of details as they approached the entrance guarded by two pikemen.

At the foyer, they are greeted by Lee Long, personal bodyguard to Ambassador Shanxian Ji Pei. "Welcome to the Ji Pei Palace, gentlemen! Atramor, my friend, great to see you answered our call again. Come, let me take you to the ambassador. I'll explain everything as we walk." Lee motioned the men to follow him. "Shanxian has been summoned back to Xu by the Council of the Blue Hand for a hearing. I do not know exactly what they want, but I have a good guess. After Jun's involvement in the rebellious movement and her own accident, those blue-faced bastards must doubt if Shanxian is capable to act as their ambassador in Eubric anymore. I would love to go with her and tell them a few selected truths, but alas, I am an exile and I do not have a death wish. You three are strong and perceptive, I know that for a fact, so I personally chose you to escort Shanxian in my stead. I trust you will keep her safe. Ai Xurong, the floating capital of Xu, might look pretty but it is a viper's nest - especially to those who have fallen out of the favor of the Council." When they arrived to a pair of doors, Lee stopped them. "Before we go in, I want to confide to you. Shanxian has not been her usual self after the incident where she lost both of her legs. And I'm not talking about her disability alone, but she has all these... thoughts and doubts she didn't use to have. As an Aoi, she was born and raised to supremacy, and although she has always been kind to those beneath her, she has always known her place in the pecking order as well. Lately, she has had a lot of time to mull things over, and she seems to have gotten the idea that the Aoi are not fit to rule Xu anymore. I fully agree with that sentiment, you can believe that, but I worry she might speak her mind in front of the Council. So I beg of you, keep her safe from the scheming sycophants in the court, but also from her own self. She already lost her legs, I don't want her to lose her head as well. Now, are you ready to go in, or is there something confidential you still want to ask from me?" QM Note: Welcome to the quest! This quest will have three battles, one of which will be a bit different. Like I said in the Hall, I have a busy week ahead, so updates will be sporadic. My apologies in advance.

Without turning, she speaks to the heroes in a calm tone. "I have finally regained the will to work on this structure now that the plans for avenging my son have been finished. In due time, since the Guild of Bakers threatened to take the project to another architect if they would not hear from me soon. But you cannot smother one's maternal instincts. Jun was my only son, and I may never have another in my lifetime, as lengthy as it might be. The blood of the aoi has grown too thin over the passing millennias. We are fading from this world, getting whisked away one by one because of our pride and stubborness. If only I could have raised Jun differently, but he was an aoi through and through, and so much like his father..." As the woman turns to the party they see tears running down her blue cheeks. "These are not tears of mourning, not anymore. These are tears of happiness because now you are here. The weapon of my vengeance. Just look at the six of you, how strong you are... Will you honor my son's memory and slay down every last one of those vile terrorists calling themselves 108 Stars of Destiny?" Shanxian's fierce eyes go through each of the heroes, demanding to answer her plea. QM Note: Welcome to this quest! I can promise you that it will be short, but tough as hell. You are probably the strongest party to date, and I'm going to make you even stronger for the purposes of this quest. You have 35 more "Stars" to beat, and none of the remaining ones are mere cannon-fodder, so prepare yourselves for an ultimate challenge.

When you have a chance, you need to make a post in the Statistics Topic with everything in this format. They weave in an out of buildings and shops, most of which are just beginning to open up. As they near the docks, the Town Guard and the Bonaparte patrols wandering around seem to get more frequent, and the architecture appears rather aged. Soon enough, they reach the alleyway they've been directed to. The man who'd posted the quest in the hall stands in a dark corner, and beckons the heroes forth. "Ah, good, good. My name is Chalvo Erith - I am the assistant overseer of transportation and shipping operations within the Ji Pei. I assume you're the heroes I requisitioned from the hall...?" You've got around 24 hours to confirm and everything before we really set off, but feel free to talk with Chalvo or eachother. Make any last minute purchases before posting here, please. Also, I promise this is just the second worst picture in the Quest, it gets better.

A clan of bandits calling themselves '108 Stars of Destiny' are holding the Hoshin Region under their grasp. Hoshin is a secluded valley in a distant corner of Xu, far away from the gaze of the capital, but to my son Jun it bears a special significance, for he was trained in the Way of Tao there. When he heard about the predicaments of the people of Hoshin, he just had to hop into his private airship and fly there. But he cannot face 108 notorious outlaws on his own, no matter what training he has gotten. I offered some of my guards to him, but he refused, saying they would only get in the way." "They would. The word is that the bandits have taken over the Pagoda of Nine Elements, a towering fortress perched high up on a mountainside. It is almost impossible to approach it without getting noticed." "Jun obviously wants to prove something to me, so I want you to find and help him, but under no circumstance reveal that I sent you. That would ashame him greatly, possibly preventing him from ever returning home. My son is the only family I have left, and I would give anything to ensure his safety. Even..." Shanxian turns, and walks to the gilded blade placed on a stand in the middle of the room. "Yes, even the Qilin Blade, the weapon that belonged to my late husband, Jun's father..." "This is no butterknife. The Qilin Blade is capable of damaging any type of enemy regardless of distance or defenses. Anyone can wield it, if it permits." "The spirits of the Aoi forefathers guide the blade, or so is believed. A worthy reward for bringing my son back, right? But since there is only one blade, may it go to the person who defeats the largest number of these 'Stars'. But now you must wonder how you will catch Jun in time. Luckily Mr. Legonardo has a solution to that problem." The blue-skinned ambassador summons her house inventor, Vincent Legonardo, who arrives swiftly with his assistant Monalisa Gioconda. "The preparations are complete, and the Destiny's Bounty is ready to take flight. I hope none of you ladies and gentlemen are afraid of heights, he he." "Mr. Legonardo's airship is the fastest one ever built. According to my calculations we should reach Hoshin region at the same time as Jun." "Is there anything you want to ask before departing? Any second thoughts? Considering the voyage you have ahead of you, as well as the amount of enemies you will have to face, I will understand if some of you want to back down." What will the party respond? QM Note: Welcome to the quest! Please check your statistics, I tried to find the most current information to all of them.
