The Bloodsong's Call

Watchman @PC_NAME(0)! I knew they'd send you eventually.

Keep your voice down, though... this place isn't what it seems.

Watchman @PC_NAME(0)! Thank the goddess. We could use your help about now.

You see this portal? It appeared out of nowhere during one of the recent Mistmerrow battles. And ever since it opened, Auroran settlers have been turning up day and night trying to get through.

The people it's calling are clearly under some kind of enchantment. They act like sleepwalkers, mumbling nonsense about "beautiful music." I was forced to post guards to stop them from stumbling through the damn thing!

I sent a team inside to investigate, and you'll never believe it--There's whole crowds of people in there, enthralled just like the others. They have no idea where they came from, or even what year it is!

Whatever's affecting these people, it's clearly deprived them of their senses. And frankly, we don't have the manpower to fight off Anthalon's forces and babysit a bunch of brainwashed settlers at the same time.

I want you to pick a team, head inside, and get to the bottom of this. Find Watchman Makihan once you're through. He'll report what he's discovered so far. And hurry, Watchman--before there's nobody left out here to protect!
