🍁Nine Ancient Obelisks

—I understand. Well, let's not bother the holy man any further. —the bespectacled man nodded. —What's next? Hmm... I'd go check on the Protector while we still have the chance. I suspect they'll gather for some secret meeting about future plans on the western front later, so it's best to find out right away if we can help in any way or if we should stay out of it.
