Stage 1

» Join Elphaba on a mission in the Temporary Camp at [-1499, 47, -5349]

Dialogue:

• Elphaba: Oh, a Wynnic soldier out here in the boondocks? Honestly, you're just what we need- I could use your help, if you're able?
• Elphaba: Good, thank you. Let me lock down the camp before I give you the briefing, though.
• Elphaba: My name is Elphaba. I've been working with the Gavellian army for a good few years now.
• Elphaba: I'm the commander of the Olux Outpost down ahead. It's a strategic fortress, placed to monitor the Orcish capital.
• Elphaba: It was safe for a long while, but especially in the past while the Orcs have gotten far bolder, more aggressive.
• Elphaba: They overwhelmed the outpost- we had to retreat and set up this camp to watch over the place we used to watch over them with!
• Elphaba: I need more firepower if I'm going... to get...
• Elphaba: ...oh no. See, this is what I mean! The orcs are coming!
• Elphaba: Brace yourself, soldier! Protect the camp!

Stage 2

» Kill the mobs raiding the Camp.

Dialogue:

• Elphaba: This is the third attack in three days! How many reinforcements have they got?!
• Elphaba: Gah! Their casters are strong, careful!

Stage 3

» Talk to Elphaba for information on the upcoming attack.

Dialogue:

• Elphaba: Ugh, I think that was all of them... Come here now, I'll start up where we left off.

• Elphaba: Not sure I could have done that myself. I'm lucky you came around when you did, soldier.
• Elphaba: Anyway, it's clear I'm going to need more firepower if I'm going to have a shot at reclaiming that outpost.
• Elphaba: You've certainly got the fighting chops, so I'd appreciate the aid, but we've got to come up with a plan, fast.
• Elphaba: There's an old tower near the outpost- some old storage silo. It was built taller than the fort, so we might be able to spy on them from there.
• Elphaba: It's a risk though, since it's so close by, but we have no other options. Meet me at the tower southwest of here so we can survey the situation.

Stage 4

» Go to the watch tower at [-1384, 42, -5273] to plan the attack.

Dialogue:

• Elphaba: Soldier! I'm right behind you. You can see our outpost- and the tower I mentioned.
• Elphaba: We need to find a way in. A lot of soldiers were caught unaware during the Orcs' assault, too.
• Elphaba: If there's any survivors in there, we should make rescuing them a priority.
• Elphaba: After all, it means more manpower for us. We can't count on that being the case, though...
• Elphaba: Come on, hurry inside before one of the orcs spots us!

Stage 5

» Enter to the watch tower at [-1384, 42, -5273] to plan the attack.

Dialogue:

• Elphaba: Alright, this is a pretty clear view. Let's see what's going on in there...
• Elphaba: Wh- I'm shocked! In the middle there- they just caged the soldiers instead of killing them? That's... kind of a relief.
• Elphaba: There's definitely too many orcs in the plaza for us to take down on our own...
• Elphaba: ...but that cage is held up by those ropes. If we can cut them, the other soldiers should be able to help!
• Elphaba: Alright, now I just need to figure out how we can both get in... There's sentries on the perimeter, so going over may no be an option...
• Elphaba: Maybe we can keep an eye out on their sentry patterns and look for an opening-
• Orc: Humans on old tower! Junhur will shoot! This our place now, get out!!
• Elphaba: Aw, not now! I knew this was a risk, no time to get out... Brace for impact!!
• Orc: Old tower fall! Junhur is best cannon shooter!!

• Elphaba: Agh, soldier!! Are you alright, where'd you fall?!
• Elphaba: Ah... Wow. You barely look scratched, you must've gotten really lucky.
• Elphaba: Not so much here... I'm pretty battered after that. At least one of us is in good condition...
• Elphaba: Unfortunately, that means figuring a way in is up to you. We can't examine their sentry patterns from down here.
• Elphaba: I'll survive, sure, but I won't be able to walk around and defend myself for a while.
• Elphaba: I hate leaving you on your own like this, but if it's any consolation, you should be tough enough, or lucky enough, to get through.
• Elphaba: Explore the perimeter of the outpost. Try to find a way in, but be careful, okay?

Stage 6

» Explore the outpost's surroundings to find another way in.

Spoiler alert: The hidden text contains spoilers relating to finding a way in.

Go to [-1411, 45, -5168] and watch the muddied orc be let in.

Stage 7

» Follow the trail of mud left by the orc.

Dialogue:

• Without the orcs to bother you, you should be able to concentrate and break this barricade with a spell...
• The orcs are taking a mud bath, it looks like. Some of them you can barely even tell are orcs underneath it. Maybe you can disguise yourself!
• They didn't see you before you covered yourself in mud... and they aren't hostile! The disguise is working!
• You should be able to trick the guard orcs into letting you enter the outpost now!

Stage 8

» Enter the outpost while covered in mud.

Dialogue:

• Orc Guard: More muddy orcs? In, now!

Stage 9

» Cut the ropes to free the guards from the cage.

Dialogue:

• You can't let the orcs see you cutting the ropes, or they'll see through your disguise.

Stage 10

» Kill the Orcish Overtakers.

Dialogue:

• Soldier: Good thinking with the mud disguise, soldier! They never suspected a thing, now come help us out over here!
• Soldier: Kill the Orcish Overtakers, we'll help keep the other ones off you!

Stage 11

» Open the gate with a spell

Dialogue:

• Soldier: The Overtakers are down, the other Orcs are flailing! Open the outpost's entrance with a spell now, we've got this under control!

Stage 11

» Talk to Elphaba.

Dialogue:

• Elphaba: Phew... That's some fine work there, soldier! The outpost is back under our control!
• Elphaba: Glad to see some more capable Wynnic hands over here. Though, I didn't catch your name. Would you mind?
• Elphaba: <playername>, huh? I'll remember that. You barely even needed my help, heh... Wish I hadn't been such a burden, but at least it worked out.
• Elphaba: Here- it's some of my own personal spending money, as a thank-you gift.
• Elphaba: Alright everyone, let's get this place ship-shape! Everything needs to be repaired in case of another attack!!
