Learn the power of draining your enemies life-force to augment your own. Practice your skills on the Bronze Golems found outside Parsinia. To reach the field where the golems roam, travel south out of Parsinia until you reach the Sandstone Golems. Turn up the hill and make your way further into the golem fields.

Gerix tells you, You wish to learn about Drain Strike, do you?  Well, I suppose I can put you on the right path. Drain Strike is a powerful ability, young one. One which you will need in your trials ahead. Using your opponent's life-force to bolster your own!  Are you ready?

<player>, we are short on time so I will be quick. I had a challenge planned for you, to test your skills against the Bronze Golems far to the south, but I am afraid it will have to wait. You see, there are other younglings that are here for training as well. One of my most enthusiastic was sent south some time ago and I have not heard from her yet.  
  
Gerix tells you, Good. It is a hard road for one as young as you. The trials your trainers such as myself must place before you will test your mettle. In order to test your ability to draw the life force from your foes and use it to heal yourself, however, you must face enemies with a signifigant amount of life force themselves. For this first trial, the Bronze Golems outside Parsinia should be enough of a challenge for you.

*Is she okay?
  
You have fought well against the golems. Return to Gerix for your training..

That is what I wish to find out!  Let us hope that she is, but if she isn't then I wish for you to render assistance. Can you do that, <player>?  Consider this to be your trial. Her name is Anamandryx and I sent her south to fight the Sandstone Pebble Golems south of Parsinia. Take the road out of town, at the fork that says "forest" head up the hill.
  
Gerix tells you, Ah, you have returned. And with but a few scratches on you. Well done, young one. You have earned this, I suppose, but do not take it for granted for you have a long, and hard, road ahead of you.

Quest text[edit]

<player>, we are short on time so I will be quick. I had a challenge planned for you, to test your skills against the Bronze Golems far to the south, but I am afraid it will have to wait. You see, there are other younglings that are here for training as well. One of my most enthusiastic was sent south some time ago and I have not heard from her yet.

  • Is she okay?

That is what I wish to find out! Let us hope that she is, but if she isn't then I wish for you to render assistance. Can you do that, <player>? Consider this to be your trial. Her name is Anamandryx and I sent her south to fight the Sandstone Pebble Golems south of Parsinia. Take the road out of town, at the fork that says "forest" head up the hill.


Hello, are you here for the trials also?

  • BattleMaster Gerix sent me to find you!

He did? Well, that is disappointing... but I suppose it has been quite a while. You see, he sent me here to fight these golems, but I got overwhelmed and had to retreat to this rock to rest and recover. I must have lost track of the time!

  • I'm here, we can head back now

N-no! I want to finish the trial. Maybe you'd be willing to help me with it? I've got some hoard I'd share with you.

  • Let's do it!

Thank you, <player>. We just need to kill eleven more of the Sandstone Pebble Golems. Let's go!


Thank you for your help, <player>! I'll meet you back in Kion.


Welcome back, <player>. I see that you located and were able to assist Anamandryx. Thank you for your assistance. Anamandryx, you have much to learn... perhaps you should tag along with <player> for a while and learn more by observing.

Anamandryx says, "I understand, BattleMaster."

  • Does that complete the trial?

It does, <player>. Well done. You have earned this, but do not take it for granted for you have a long, and hard, road ahead of you. Be sure you speak to Anamandryx before you leave.


As promised, here is some of my hoard to share. I'm ready to accompany you!
