The Lost Love
Race Valindra to Mezro and protect it from the Red Wizards.
Area	Goal		Quests & Cinematics
Artus Cimber:	I've sought a way to return to my beloved Alisanda for so long. If the ritual that Saja N'baza shared with me works, all my waiting will be at an end. I will see Mezro and my wife at last.
Celeste:	Even with the instructions for the ritual, this task won't be an easy one, Artus. The protective magic that seals Mezro away in its demiplane is powerful beyond measure.
Artus Cimber:	Aye. The barae - the immortal defenders of the city understood their job well when they hid Mezro away. Creating a bridge from our reality to theirs will task us all.
Nayeli:	And I don't doubt that Valindra and her Red Wizards will be all too keen on making things even more difficult for us.
Bruenor:	Feh. We'll be ready fer her. And it smells like Dragonbait's spoiling fer a rematch as much as I am. Mmm, fresh-baked bread and rose-hip jam, just like me gran used ta make.
Artus Cimber:	That's anger for certain. But roses are the scent of sadness for saurials. But you need not fear for our quest, my friend. We've come too far to fail now. You and I will walk into Mezro together.
1	Defeat 25 Monsters		The race to Mezro is on! And like every other race in Chult, it comes with a whole lot of bystanders attacking you!
2	Defeat 25 Monsters		Pushing through dense foliage lets you leave the velociraptors behind. But these flying monkeys are more tenacious by far.
3	Collect 25 Vine Samples		Sticking to the path leaves you open to attack. Tearing down the close-growing vines will help open up this fight.
4	Defeat 25 Monsters		Yellow musk zombies! You've stumbled into the territory of the undead!
Bruenor:	I never could get 'nuff o' fighting tha undead. Good thing Chult never seems ta get tired o' makin' 'em.
Azaka:	As you say, friend Bruenor, there are more where those came from. Normally, I would suggest we alter our course. But I recognize this territory. Camp Vengeance lies not far off.
Nayeli:	This many undead so close to the templar camp is a bad sign. They might need assistance.
Bruenor:	Seems like it won't add too much time ta our journey ta stop by and check up. And if tha rest o' tha goin' ta Mezro turns out ta be as hard as tha first leg, havin' a few extra blades on hand won't hurt.
5	Defeat the Girallon Zombie		Even as a zombie, this girallon channels all the rage it possessed in life! Fight on!
Nayeli:	It's as I feared. The templar camp is under attack!
Templar Wizard:	Champions! We are well met. This zombie horde is close to overwhelming us.
Bruenor:	Then leave it ta us ta be underwhelmin' on yer behalf, friend. Champions! With me! And give 'em all ye got!
6	Defeat 25 Monsters		This zombie mob is too much for the templars to deal with on their own. To arms!
7	Defeat 25 Monsters		A second wave of zombies presses in. Don't let these undead surround you!
8	Collect 25 Giant Rat Tails		Zombie rats are a new menace. Taking these undead rodents' tails should slow down their assault.
9	Defeat 25 Monsters		As fast as you destroy them, more zombie rats close in!
Templar Commander:	All Templars, regroup on me! One last stand will turn the tide!
Nayeli:	Greetings, Commander. Once more, we seem to arrive at the most opportune time.
Templar Commander:	Indeed, and you're as much a blessing this time as the last. Together, we fight!
10	Defeat the Triceratops Zombie		You've got the rats on the run, but an undead triceratops is a far more deadly threat to you and your templar allies. Stand fast!
Nayeli:	That's the last of the undead routed, though I have no doubt that those that fled will creep back toward the camp in time.
Templar Commander:	Let them come. Another storm like this will challenge us, but a bit of evil rain is easily dealt with.
Templar Wizard:	You have all our thanks, Champions. And if we have any chance to repay these favors, it would be our honor.
Bruenor:	Funny ye should say it, 'cause we got a favor ta ask. We're bound fer Mezro, and we got a likely feelin' that more than a few Red Wizards will be meetin' us there.
Templar Commander:	Then you shall have us at your backs. We've seen far too much of the Red Wizards in the jungle of late. A chance to strike at them en masse would be welcome. Templars! Bind your wounds and gather weapons. We march!
Bruenor:	Mmm, that's a heady scent o' ham ye're sharin' with us, Dragonbait. Don't know what it means fer ye, but tha one emotion I'm feelin' right now is fair hungry.
Artus Cimber:	That's the scent of worry for a saurial. Fear not, my friend. I told you, we will prevail today.
Celeste:	Dragonbait, a word in private? I think I know what it is you fear, even if Artus can't see it. I promise you, though, that no matter what happens today, you have more friends than you know. Take heart in that if you can.
11	Defeat 25 Monsters		So good to be back in the jungle and getting attacked by living creatures that want to eat you, as opposed to undead creatures that want to eat you.
12	Defeat 25 Monsters		These velociraptor hunting packs are driving grazing stegosaurs into a panic! Watch out!
Asharra:	My friends, I know this territory. We draw close to my home of Kir Sabal. If it pleases you, we might stop there and seek additional aid.
Celeste:	A good notion, Asharra. The threat of the Red Wizards will be redoubled in Chult if Valindra is successful at coopting the magic that conceals Mezro. All the folk of this land have a stake in stopping her.
Bruenor:	A good 'nuff notion fer me. Doesn't seem like we're in any danger o' runnin' out o' things ta fight on this trip.
13	Collect 25 Dino Scales		Scattered dinosaur scales make fighting along the riverbank hazardous. Clear them out!
Bruenor:	Still can't get used ta tha idea that them stegosaurians is so-called harmless.
Azaka:	It's true, friend Bruenor. You might think of them as cows. They have no malice in them, but their size and strength makes them formidable if threatened.
Bruenor:	Ain't their size or strength that worries me so much as them there tail spikes! Ye show me cows that use swords, I'll be givin' them just as wide a berth as I wanna give these blighters!
14	Defeat 25 Monsters		The stegosaur pack is stampeding! Push them back before you're overwhelmed!
Azaka:	Watch yourselves, friends! We've stumbled into the heart of the stegosaurs' territory.
Jarlaxle:	I can see something big lurching to its feet beyond the trees. We've apparently woken the elder saurian from its nap.
Bruenor:	Anybody knows a good lullaby ta get this beast back ta slumberin', now's tha time!
15	Defeat the Ancient Stegosaurus		This ancient stegosaurus is out for revenge against the creatures that terrified its kin -- and it's looking at you!
Jarlaxle:	I can't say I enjoyed this climb so much last time that I was looking forward to repeating it. And I'm even less keen on how much the flora up above appears to be moving...
Asharra:	Be wary, friends. Since the gargoyles attacked Kir Sabal, my people have pulled back to focus on the defense of the city. The jungle is reclaiming the cliffs, and it has a stark appetite.
16	Defeat 25 Monsters		The cliffs of Kir Sabal are now defended by deadly assassin vines. Get ready for a tough climb!
17	Defeat 25 Monsters		As fast as you clear the vines, more of them lash out against you!
18	Defeat 2 Cliffside Debris		The way ahead is blocked by debris from the gargoyle attack you helped thwart. Clear it out to get past!
Jarlaxle:	Well, I certainly hope the amount of unpaid yard work we're doing will go some way toward swaying the aarakocra to our cause.
Asharra:	My people will remember your aid from before, Jarlaxle, never fear. I will speak to the elders of each of the nests to obtain their blessing.
19	Defeat 25 Monsters		More flying snakes swarm the cliff! Push on!
20	Defeat the Tri-flower Frond		A deadly tri-flower frond blocks the way forward! But the last of the flying snakes will make this a tough fight!
Bruenor:	Well, that's a minute's respite and just in time. Any moment in Chult when ye ain't bein' attacked by somethin', it's a good moment ta sit.
Celeste:	It'll be a short rest, I think. Asharra is already returning from meeting with the elders.
Asharra:	My friends, we have our support. Eight of the twelve nests of Kir Sabal will join us on this mission.
Bruenor:	Aerial support'll come in handy, no doubt. Looks like we got ourselves an army ta shut down tha Red Wizards and their plots!
Celeste:	Here, Dragonbait. I smell the brimstone of confusion around you. But don't fear. I know that the choices we face can seem bleak, but when the time comes, you'll know what to do.
Jarlaxle:	I don't mean to interrupt your one-sided but no doubt scintillating conversation, but we've got multiple points of movement in the trees. Everyone look sharp!
Azaka:	I can see the livery of the Batiri! Prepare for attack!
21	Defeat 25 Monsters		It's a straight path from Kir Sabal to Mezro -- but the Batiri goblins might have something to say about your presence in their territory.
22	Defeat 25 Monsters		Another force of Batiri guardians presses in. Look sharp!
23	Collect 25 Goblin Spears		Spears from the foliage announce the presence of goblin hunters! Don't let them arm themselves again once their weapons are thrown!
24	Defeat 25 Monsters		Goblins press in from all sides. You're surrounded!
Artus Cimber:	These hit-and-run tactics of the Batiri are wearing us down. We need to organize a full assault. That's the only thing that'll break them.
Jarlaxle:	There's a tight knot of movement straight ahead. A leader there, perhaps?
Artus Cimber:	It's as good a chance as any. Everyone with me! We need to punch through this mob. Get them scattered, but good!
25	Defeat the Batiri Goblin Boss		The goblin boss rallies its troops for a last assault. Stand fast!
Bruenor:	There's tha last o' them goblin blighters makin' fast fer tha trees. Now ta figure out where we are. That fight carried us over a whole lot o' territory.
Azaka:	But it did so to our advantage. Look there.
Artus Cimber:	Those are the ruins of Mezro, dead ahead. Stay close, everyone. I've spent more time in Mezro than I can easily reckon, but the dangers there are never the same twice.
Bruenor:	Seems quiet 'nuff so far. Maybe we got lucky and beat them Red Wizards here?
Jarlaxle:	Not likely. There's movement through the trees ahead. No, wait... this is curious. I can see Zhentarim colors.
Nayeli:	The Zhentarim, here? What devilry do they mean to get up to?
Jarlaxle:	Only one way to find out...
26	Defeat 25 Monsters		The unexpected presence of Zhentarim promises that your exploration of Mezro will be even more difficult than anticipated.
27	Defeat 25 Monsters		Zhentarim snipers join the fight, shooting from the edge of the fray.
28	Collect 25 Zhentarim Spy Emblems		These Zhents think far too much of themselves. Tearing their emblems free should sap their morale.
Bruenor:	Don't matter what part o' Faerûn they're in, Zhents ain't never in it fer tha long fight.
Nayeli:	They'll regroup in the jungle, no doubt. But they'll think twice about bothering us again, I'd wager.
Jarlaxle:	Right. I had a brief chat with one of the survivors. It seems they were watching the Red Wizards and followed them here, hoping to learn what they're up to and use it to the Black Network's advantage.
Bruenor:	So that Valindra Shadowmantle's got herself here already. Good. It'll make tha huntin' easier. Come on all, and stay sharp. Them Thayan's is gonna be close -- and waitin' fer us.
29	Defeat 25 Monsters		Familiar forms in scarlet appear to all sides. The Red Wizards are here!
30	Defeat the Red Wizard Agent		The leader of the Red Wizard squad calls for an all-out assault. Finish these Thayans once and for all!
Jarlaxle:	There's the scent of violets from the saurial. That means what? Time for lunch?
Celeste:	It means fear, Jarlaxle, and mind yourself. We've all got our reasons to be afraid here.
Jarlaxle:	The only thing terrifying me is the complete absence of treasure so far. No, wait! There's a corroded copper piece. Well, I'm set.
Nayeli:	Enough with the griping, drow, and stay sharp. I can sense evil all around us... getting closer...
31	Defeat 25 Monsters		The necromancers of the Red Wizards have been busy. Zombie soldiers swarm the ruins!
32	Defeat 25 Monsters		The masters of these undead join the battle at last!
Bruenor:	There! That Valindra's on tha far side o' this mob, leadin' from tha rear like Thayans do!
Valindra Shadowmantle:	You! I wasn't sure you all had the fortitude to follow me here. But I see you brought reinforcements to shore up your thin bravery. A pity they won't last any longer than you will.
Bruenor:	Ye talk a lot when ye should be fightin'. Another thing I seen in too many Thayans. Champions! Templars! Warriors o' Kir Sabal! This is tha fight we been waitin' fer!
33	Collect 25 Chultian Symbols		The next wave of the Thayan assault force presses in as the ruins take the brunt of the assault. Collect the ruined symbols!
34	Defeat 25 Monsters		The Red Wizards are beginning to founder! Finish them!
Celeste:	Does anyone see Valindra? She can't be allowed to start the ritual. This fight is distracting us, just as she wants it to.
Artus Cimber:	The battle's also hindering me from collecting the ritual components I need.
Bruenor:	Best ye focus on that, then. And I'm gonna send tha templars and tha aarakocra out from our main force. We split up, we got a better chance o' finding Valindra before it's too late.
35	Defeat the Bone Naga		A deadly bone naga rises from the ruins -- even as a last wave of zombies launches a final assault!
36	Defeat 25 Monsters		The ruins of Mezro ring out with destructive spell power. The Red Wizards' evoker shock troops are here!
37	Defeat 25 Monsters		Panthers disturbed by the destruction are on a rampage. Force these crazed cats back!
Celeste:	Artus! How does the search go?
Artus Cimber:	It goes well, Celeste. The last of the ritual components I need are frozen flower fronds.
Celeste:	It's our good luck, then, that some of the evokers are freezing everything in sight. Everyone! Gather what you can for Artus. We're running out of time!
38	Collect 25 Frozen Fronds		The last of the ritual components wait to be collected -- but keeping the panthers at bay makes it tough work.
Artus Cimber:	Almost there! Just another few moments, friends, and Dragonbait and I will be done!
Bruenor:	Ye heard tha man! Keep them Thayans on tha run!
39	Defeat 25 Monsters		The ritual is nearly complete! But the Red Wizards redouble their efforts to bring you down!
40	Defeat the Necromancer		A ranking necromancer leads this Red Wizard assault force. Take her down to keep the ritual from being interrupted!
Celeste:	Artus has done it! The magic concealing Mezro is opened up for the first time in more than a century! The bridge is forming!
Artus Cimber:	So long I've waited... we've done it Dragonbait. Wait... is it... Alisanda?!
Alisanda:	Artus, my love! What have you done?
Artus Cimber:	I've come for you, love! I... wait... what's going on?
Bruenor:	That magic don't look right ta me. That bridge inta tha hidden city is unravellin'!
Alisanda:	The magic has been corrupted! The bridge is drawing Mezro back into the world too soon!
Celeste:	This is Valindra's doing! She must have sought to weaken Mezro's protective power so she can pilfer the magical riches there.
Artus Cimber:	And weakening that magic will also limit Alisanda and the other barae in their ability to fight back!
Bruenor:	Then we gotta shut down this corruption at its source. Head inta tha city, where tha ritual's centered. Then we find that Thayan mage -- and we end her threat fer good!
Jarlaxle:	That's a heady scent of roses coming from our Saurial friend. If that's battle-ready rage, he'd be welcome to share it around.
Celeste:	Roses are sadness for Dragonbait, Jarlaxle.
Jarlaxle:	Sadness? That seems an odd reaction in the middle of the fight of a lifetime.
Celeste:	Dragonbait's reaction isn't yours to worry about. Just fight.
41	Defeat 25 Monsters		The unnatural magic tearing at reality puts the local wildlife into a panic! You need to get through this chaos!
Jarlaxle:	The templars and the aarakocra are holding the Red Wizards back on our left and right flanks. If we can clear this infestation of saurians, we'll have a clear shot at Valindra, and... wait.. the Red Wizards have someone else fighting them!
Artus Cimber:	That's Alisanda and the barae. All the guardians of Mezro have joined our fight! We will either prevail or perish today, that much is assured.
42	Defeat 25 Monsters		These frenzied velociraptors need to clear the city. Drive them out and move on!
43	Defeat 2 Barae Blockades		Protective barricades originally put in place by the barae are working against you. You need to push past if you hope to curtail the ritual's destructive power!
44	Defeat 25 Monsters		Swarms of flying predators fill the air. Watch yourselves!
Artus Cimber:	Valindra! Your treachery and your corruption of Mezro's power ends here!
Valindra Shadowmantle:	Indeed? And you have considered that ending the ritual will send Mezro back to its demiplane -- and seal it away for all time?
Artus Cimber:	... If this is what fate ordains, then so be it. I will give up my quest to see your threat ended. And my Alisanda made safe.
Valindra Shadowmantle:	Then you are every bit the coward I took you for. I will see your undead husk serve me when this is done -- and will see the Ring of Winter on my finger. Destroy them all!
45	Defeat the Valindra Shadowmantle		Your allies have driven the main Red Wizard force straight toward you! The final fight begins!
Nayeli:	No! That treacherous mage has teleported away again!
Bruenor:	She won't be goin' far this time. She's got too much invested in this operation. Everybody close up ranks! Then hit 'em hard again!
46	Defeat 25 Monsters		Red Wizard evokers bring a rain of destruction down upon you! Hit them hard!
Jarlaxle:	We've got company coming in on all sides! Watch yourselves!
Nayeli:	The Red Wizards are falling back. The templars and the barae have them on the run.
Bruenor:	They'll be lookin' ta regroup with Valindra. Keep close on 'em! They'll lead us ta their master, and then we can finish this fight fer good.
47	Defeat 25 Monsters		A wave of undead presses in, with their necromancer masters close behind. But with the barae at your side, you are unstoppable!
48	Collect 25 Yellow Musk Spores		Yellow musk zombies will be an even deadlier threat if their spores spread! Collect them before it's too late!
49	Defeat 25 Monsters		The Red Wizards break at last under your assault! But these undead still stand between you and your final goal!
Jarlaxle:	There! I see the Red Wizard... but she's changed her look in a way I'm not crazy about.
Celeste:	This is Valindra Shadowmantle's true form. A lich in the service of Szass Tam.
Bruenor:	Livin' or undead, makes no difference ta me anymore. Yer evil ends here, Thayan.
Valindra Shadowmantle:	Brave words, mortal. Shall I tell you of all those who uttered words so similar before they fell at my feet? Or should I just let you meet them? My skeleton guardians! Destroy these so-called champions!
50	Defeat 1 Valindra Shadowmantle		In her true form, Valindra Shadowmantle makes a final stand! If you can't break her corruption of the ritual, Mezro will fall!
Nayeli:	Valindra has fallen at last! And the ritual is remaking itself!
Alisanda:	Artus! My love, I cannot cross to you. The veil restores itself. Come to me, before it's too late.
Celeste:	The bridge won't last long, Artus, you need to flee.
Artus Cimber:	I would it were otherwise. I owe you all so much. Dragonbait! Come, my friend... wait. Dragonbait, why do you tarry?
Vlahnya:	Artus, Dragonbait has words he cannot share. So I will share them for him. He bids you farewell and a long life. But it's your destiny to reach Mezro at last. Not his.
Artus Cimber:	My friend... I'm sorry I was too blinded by my goal to know your mind. But know this -- I am here because of you. I am alive because you came into my life. Because you carried me when hope was lost. Goodbye my friend. Goodbye to you all.
Nayeli:	He's gone. And now the bridge goes with him, and Mezro is lost again... Bruenor, are you all right?
Bruenor:	Aye, lass. Just got a little somethin' in me eye. Come on, Dragonbait. Ye stick close ta me. And when we're clear o' danger tonight, we'll raise a mug ta Artus Cimber, and ta all our adventures ta come.
