==Dialogue==
===Initial dialogue===
;Jorn Kudebeh
:''Welcome Traveler! It's so exciting to see a new group of people attempt [[Ascension]]. One can only hope that you'll fare better than those who've tried in the past, myself included of course! I just spoke to some of your '''friends''' and suggested that they go out into '''Skyward Reach''' to take a look at the '''mesa'''. You should also have a look, and then come back to give me your impressions. I'm recording the impressions of travelers for posterity.''

:''What do you think?''
{{Offer dialog
| accept = I enjoy sightseeing.
| decline = I'm no tourist.
| ask = Meet your '''friends''' in '''Skyward Reach''', go have a look at the '''mesa''', and then let me know what you think!
}}

===Intermediate dialogue===
;Upon meeting the group
:'''Cynn''': ''Well if it isn't,{{sic|A comma here is incorrect use of punctuation.}} <Character name>. We thought you were never going to make it. What kept you?''
:'''Mhenlo:''' ''What Cynn was trying to say, but failing at miserably, is that it is good to see you, <Character name>.''
:'''Devona:''' ''Aidan has already gone ahead to find us a suitable spot from which to view the mesa. When you are ready, we should all go and find him. We'll lead the way. We've become rather expert at locating Aidan whenever he goes on his little scouting expeditions.''

;Upon reaching the vantage point
:'''Aidan:''' ''It's good to see you, friends. I trust the journey was not too harsh? Come, I have something to show you.''
:'''Aidan:''' ''Impressive. I assume that completing these trials will open the way for us?''
:'''Cynn:''' ''It had better open the way. I'm not spending any more time than is necessary in this forsaken desert.''
:'''Mhenlo:''' ''This must truly be the work of the gods. I can sense the divine energy of the place even at this distance.''
:'''Devona:''' ''<Character name>, why don't you go back and speak with that ghost? We're going to explore the immediate surroundings a bit, but I trust we'll see one another again soon. Until then, may the gods of this place preserve you.''

===Reward dialogue===
;Jorn Kudebeh
:''Yes, the mesa is impressive, isn't it? If only I had been able to reach it... But I'm sure you'll do just fine. You look pretty capable to me. Of course, I've said the same about the last two dozen people that have come through here as well, so what do I know? In any case, I wish you good luck in your trials.''

==Notes==
*It is possible to complete the quest just by visiting the target location, without waiting for your allies to reach it.
*This quest can be done with no fighting.
*It is very easy for Mhenlo, Cynn and Devona to be killed due to the sheer amount of area of effect damage [[Hydra (Crystal Desert)|hydra]]s put out. However, their deaths will not cause the quest to fail and it can still be completed.
{{bug|Sometimes [[Mhenlo]] will continue to follow you and heal your party after you reach the mesa.}}
{{bug|Aidan's second line, ''"Impressive. I assume that completing these trials will open the way for us?"'', should be spoken by Devona.}}
