Phantom under a Blue Sky
No Expiration
Alexandria Adventurer's Guild
There seems to be a strange rumour passing among the caravan members who trade in the land's interior. They say there is a phantom nation in the far east of the continent. I've made the request to Mehmet Shuluk. But seeing as this is a difficult investigation, we'd like to get the cooperation of a skilled adventurer.

Nation of Illusion
Obviously I don't believe this "phantom nation" actually exists. It was probably just a hallucination brought on by the extreme conditions... However But considering that the testimonies of the Caravan members match up on several points, it is difficult to dismiss the story outright. It would also cause trouble if the caravans were caught up in any incidents, so we need to make sure everything is safe.

Blue Skies, Rainbows, and a Human Figure in the Mist
Their testimony is this--when they headed inland from Calcutta and reached a certain spot past the mountains, they took a short break. After a short while they awoke in a mist through which they could see a blue sky and a rainbow. After they gazed at the beautiful sight for a while, the sight of a human figure became visible... Then finally, the mist receded.

The Truth About the Figure
The sight of the human figure signaled that the mist was receding. But they were still unable to determine the identity of the figure even after the fog cleared. The way the story is told, it sounds a bit creepy, but apparently there was nothing scary about the mysterious person they saw. There may be a simple explanation for this. Someone might have been playing tricks. Or maybe someone was trying to scare them. Regardless, please look into it.

Figure in Search of Something
There are many merchants who head to Eastern China from here by land. I hear lots of stories about a strange mist, too. The human figure that appears within look as if they are searching for something. The city if Chingqing is a stopping post for the Merchants, so you should ask around there.

Chongqing Rumours
That story became a pretty big rumour a few years ago. "When the morning fog comes in in the mountains west of town, a blue sky and rainbow appear, and then one of the dead beckons you to join him...", or something of that sort. But the sight is so beautiful that it doesn't seem frightening at all, they say. Speaking of which, a girl here in town was listening to that story pretty intently.

Disappeared Adventurer and Father
Just before the rumours started, there was and adventurer from a foreign land who came looking for my father. They left town early in the morning together, and then in the evening, my father came back alone. My father suddenly said he was going to visit a scholar in Hangzhou, and left town. That's when the rumours of a ghost started.

Their Goal
People started saying it was the ghost of the adventurer, and that my father killed him. Those suspicions have now been cleared up, but my father has disappeared from Hangzhou as well. If only we knew why the two of them left town early that morning, then we would know why my father disappeared...

To a Friend in a Far Away Land
To John Tradescant, my friend from a nation afar--I've been trully moved by now ceaselessly you travel from one nation to another, chasing a dream. I have no desire to crush your spirits here. I now want to invest my life in understanding the world and times of the Three Kingdoms. Let us drink here someday when our dreams are fulfilled, so that we may relish in them. To good health...

To a Friend in the Far East
To my friend in the Far East--As you told me, the mist appeared the next morning when the temperature dropped after that warm night. After several days in waiting, I found my phantom creature. I wish I could have shown you its wings shining through the fog, and its majestic flight. As long as you continue you to chase your dreams, I will continue to chase after unknown creatures. To good health...

Phantom under a Blue Sky
It seems Tradescant came here in search of some specimin. The "wings that shine in the fog" could be responsible for the blue sky and rainbow seen by others. The human figure seen searching within the mist may have been Tradescant in the middle of his study. Find the creature and prove to the requester that there is no concern for possible incidents.

Ecological search near Upturned Boulder. You do not need R5 survival while doing ecological search. It means that you need Rank 5 survival only to pull the quest.
I think you need r5 survival for one of the talking parts.
Hmmm, I can't tell this... I I took off my survival boosters only in the final part while doing ecological research.
R5 Survival is needed to talk to Mehmet Shuluk in Alexandria. It is not needed for any other steps.
The large boulder for step 8 is on the western side of the map.
The upturned boulder for step 9 is in the northeast corner.
