* [[Master Craftsman Takahume]]

==== Updated Locations ====

Atamarr tells you, "I would expect he will not be easy to kill, so take care in this mission.  I have also been told that he stays on the move, speaking with the troops and formulating plans, so he may be difficult to find.  Search in the deepest areas of the excavation, and I am sure you'll find him soon enough.  Once he is dead, return to me."<br>


Kaytin tells you, "It is an honor to speak with you, small one.  I am Kaytin, one of Atamarr's entourage, as well as his acting supply officer."<br>

Kaytin tells you, "To this end, I am rewarding adventurers for the collection of Aetherium Power Cores, Aetherium Ore, and Gears from the invading Gear Knights found in either the Direlands, or along the coast of the eastern shore of the Inner Sea.  If they wish to present themselves as enemies to the peoples of this land, they can at least be put to more productive use in deactivation."<br>
Kaytin tells you, "If you wish to assist us, just bring me whatever Aetherium Cores, pieces of Aetherium Ore, or Gear Knight Gears you find, and we will reward you when you've contributed different set amounts of parts."<br>
Kaytin tells you, "Also, if you are willing, I have a secondary task for you.  The Iron Blade invasion in the Direlands will have a storage box placed deep in their defenses.  It is common for their House to hide updates, orders, etc. in these boxes, where they will go unnoticed by invading forces."<br>
Kaytin tells you, "Acquisition for me one of these boxes, and I will see what we can learn about their plans and reasonings in this invasion."<br>
