Requirements

Offer: Don't talk to me....Hmph. Ardin's stray, are you? I'm Eleska. We're the Sand Bandits, the Versalian resistance here in Versariant. We answer to Grandmaster Numenal, and we fight Naricain's followers.
You're looking for a piece of the old light, a Teardrop. We might help. But I don't take kindly to sissies, and neither does our leader, Jano. The people who have my back have to handle themselves. Are you stronger than a Desert Giant?
In progress: Defeat a Desert Giant at the far end of Outside the North Entrance of Versariant. Then come back, and we'll talk.
Completion: Hmph, fine. I guess you can watch my back. Jano agrees.
Here's what we do. The Queen pays Naricain's followers a tribute, and it sits in her vault. We're going to take it. Phantom? He's a ghost story we made up. The day he 'strikes', every guard chases him while we empty the vault.
Until then, go see old SagaT here in town. He talks too much, but he's the wisest man we've got, and he has an idea about the thing you're looking for.
