A Spark of Hope

A Spark of Hope is a prologue quest in Elyon. It is the first quest of the prologue and serves mostly as an introduction to the basic movement and fighting mechanics of the game.

Walkthrough
Talk to Lilith. She tells you that Hector and she are here to rescue you and that Hector stayed behind to fight the enemies. Equip the weapons Lilith gives you, follow her and kill the Mechanized Warlord s. Dash past the alarm and walk up to Lilith at the second alarm. The machine will stun both Lilith and you. Use Remove Shock to get away and talk to Lilith. She says that she will stay behind and urges you to look for Hector.

Continue on the path and kill the Baby Arachne s and Arachne. Go up the ladder and talk to Hector, who is locked up. Hector tells you that he has discovered that the enemies call themselves Dark Apostles and have the power to turn biological organisms into machines. He tells you to go on to save the Inventus and that he will follow later.

Continue by killing the Mechanized Colossi, Guards and Machine Beetles. In the final room a rescuer tells you that you must kill the Skull Hound before it reaches the Inventus. Do as he says and proceed through the portal.

Dialogue
Lilith Veldt: [Player name]! Are you alright?

Lilith Veldt: What on earth... [Player name], pull yourself together!

Conversation with Lilith Veldt:

Heavens, what could this heinous mechanical device be?! [Player name]! Are you alright? Can you move?

[Player name]! Hector and I were sent by our ruler, Neishar, to save you! I was barely able to get here while Hector dealt with the enemies...

I don't know who these enemies are, but the ark Inventus will sink at this rate! [Player name], we need your help! We have to find Hector and get back to the Inventus at once!

Lilith Veldt: We need to prepare ourselves before the enemy reaches us. Equip your weapon!

Lilith Veldt: This way! Follow me!

Lilith Veldt: Now I'm just worried if Hector is safe... I pray that he's alive...!

Lilith Veldt: W-what are those...? ...Mechanized...people?!

Lilith Veldt: Oops... There's an alarm device here. We'll have to use Evade to get past.

Lilith Veldt: There isn't any other way! We have to plough through!

Lilith Veldt: This looks a little different from the previous trap... I'll try to get rid of it!

Lilith Veldt: Augh... The hell...!

Lilith Veldt: Augh...

Conversation with Lilith Veldt:

Ugh...! We don't have a moment to lose...! But I can't... I can hardly move...

[Player name], go ahead to the Inventus. You're the only one who can save the Inventus now, [Player name].

I'm okay... I'll be able to move again after a short rest... Now, go! Hurry!

...Please...look after Hector.

Hector Wieden: [Player name]! Over here!

Conversation with Hector Wieden:

Whew, [Player name]! I'm so relieved you're alright! But what about Lilith? Where's Lilith?

Lilith fell into a trap?! No way... This is all my fault! If I had only been a little stronger...!

...But for what it's worth, I've been making myself useful. I've learned something about our enemy.

These thugs call themselves the Dark Apostles. And they appear to have the power to turn biological organisms into machines.

Countless people will be put at risk unless we make this known. I-I'll figure out a way to get out on my own. You go on ahead to the Inventus before it's too late!

Save our ark, the Inventus. So that Lilith's sacrifice isn't in vain...

Hector Wieden: You must protect the Inventus! We'll be right behind you!

Rescuer: Ugh... [Player name]...!

Rescuer: T-that monster...! It's trying to get to the Inventus through the portal...

Rescuer: It must be stopped...before that happens...!

Maria Neishar: The Inventus is being swarmed by the enemy! If anyone is listening to this, you must come to the Tree of Sefiroth at once!

Elite Inventus Trooper: You made it!

Elite Inventus Trooper: It's [Player name]!

Elite Inventus Trooper: [Player name]! Queen Neishar is waiting for you in front of the Tree of Sefiroth!
