New Affinity Mission: The Nopon Heir

The “Nopon heir” is apparently quite ill. Work with Tora to find the materials for a cure.

Objective 1

Achieve all objectives:

• Get three aeviter star wings from sand aeviters or others in Sylvalum.
• Get an obsidian fragment from Eternal millesaurs or others in Primordia.

Aeviters can be found around Sylvalum’s Needle Rock Sandsea—look for the bat-like protrusions sticking out of the sand. Meanwhile, you’ve seen everlasting millesaurs since the start of the game—they hang out around Primordia’s bodies of water. You will, however, require some Skells with level 50 frames (in your party of four Skells, period) to take them out—two is a good number.

Objective 2

Talk to Tora in the Administrative District.

Objective 3

Head to Noctilum’s Divine Roost.

Your arrival at this destination is the part where you realize you’ve been sent on a suicide mission. Anyone who’s played Xenoblade Chronicles already knows that Telethias are trouble. If you’re reading this book and you haven’t—well, you’re in trouble.

Objective 4

Get a guardian etherscale from Telethia, the Endbringer at the Divine Roost.

Telethia, the Endbringer

Lv. 99: Tyrant

Yes, it’s level 99. Yes, you’re going to have to fight it. Fortunately, no, you don’t have to beat it. You just have to…scratch it. Give it a mosquito bite, because that’s what you are to it, really.

If you don’t have G-Busters on your Skells, get them—they’re the quickest way to shave off the 5 percent of its health that you need to get out of this encounter alive. Its attacks will make short work of you if you take too long, so, you know…don’t.

Objective 5

Talk to Tora in the Administrative District.
