      Torso that catches the wind
      No Expiration
      Athens Adventurer's Guild
      This request is from the Guild. The body of a female statue was recently unearthed at Samothrace island, But since it's just the body, nobody knows who it is a statue of. The sculptor Salonika is overseeing the restoration work. This request is to assist the scultptor and to investigate about that statue. First go speak to the sculptor Salonika.

                      1. Requests from a sculptor
                      The statue is just a body with no head or arms but it is extremely large. It's about twice as tall as I am! I wish I could find the remaining parts so I could put it back together... Anyway, don't stick to just this town when you're doing your research. Try asking around in lots of different places. I need information, no matter what it is!

                      2. Drape that move beautifully in the wind
                      I saw it when I went to Salonika. It was made of marble. I thought the drape was particularly beautiful. It was so detailed it seemed like it was really being blown by a strong wind. Even its feet were designed to look like it was struggling to stand in the wind.

                      3. Faith of the island of Samothrace
                      The island of Samothrace has always been a place of adamant faith for goddesses. I'm sure that statue is likely the statue of a goddess as well... Too bad the torso is all that's left. I hope someone finds the arms and head someday...

                      4. Rumors of a suspicious man
                      The other day a shady looking man came by trying to sell me small bits of marble. I didn't like the impression he gave me so I told him to leave. He told me he was searching for treasure around the Aegean Sea and if I decided I wanted some to come find him. Of course, there's no way that's going to happen...

                      5. I've been unlucky since then...
                      Hey, if you want it I'll give it to you! Nobody will buy those pieces of marble for anything! I swear, I've had the worst luck since then... If you're looking for the shards I found on Samothrace you can find it over at that place with all the white flowers...

                      6. Discovery of a hemp sack
                      ...After pushing my way through the flowers I found the shards of marble lying in a sack. Upon first glance I'd say there were about 100 shards of marble in there. This could be the pieces. of the statue that broke off. I should hand them over to the Sculptor in Salonika.

                      7. Wings?
                      Hm? What's this...? Are these pieces from the statue? They're so small I can't tell what's what... I guess we can take this piece and... Hmm, maybe put them this way? This goes here and... this one goes here... Hey, doesn't this kind of look like a wing? What could a statue of a winged goddess be...?

                      8. Statue of Nike?
                      Wings? That must be the goddess Nike then. She's the Greek goddess of victory. Normally she's expressed as having winds. That reminds me, there are some written records that state that when the people of Rhodes were attacked during the Seleucus Dynasty they prayed for victory and put up a statue of Nike on one of their ships. As a result, the people of Rhodes ended up winning that naval battle.

                      9. Completed statue
                      The statue of the goddess Nike, eh? I have to agree that the way in which the statue looks as though it's heading into the wind is very powerful. The restored wings makes her look even more majestic. At first I didn't like the fact that there was no head or any arms but now I think that actually brings out the detail in the body and wings even more. People back then really were amazing at what they did. The statue is on display in front of the church now. You should go have a look at it!

                      10. Goddess of victory who stands against the wind
                      The statue of a female body excavated on Samothrace turned out to be a statue of Nike whose wings had been shattered into pieces. The statue of Nike was put upon one of the ships of the people of Rhodes in a sea battle during the Selecus Dynasty. This could be the one they used. Apparently the statue is on display in front of the church. I should go check it out.
