At some point very shortly after that last miniscene, you're going to get a note from Lai saying that he wants a meeting immediately.

After you arrive, he appears behind you.

<LaiMisuna> "Cerin, you have not kept me waiting. Good."

<LaiMisuna> "....Indeed." He looks haughty and impatient. "I understand that you and the... others met a Sidereal. Is this correct?"

<LaiMisuna> "What did he ask of you?"

<Cerin?> "He did not see me there, he asked of the gods of Listran, and their guards to Zahara and the others"

<LaiMisuna> "Hmmmmm. Do the others suspect their secret?"

<LaiMisuna> "Good." He pauses, as if to think for a second.

<LaiMisuna> "These Sunlanders seek to expand their territory, control the free lands of the Southeast. This must not be allowed to occur."

<LaiMisuna> "Should they seek to reach out into the lands north of their current holdings, you must prevent this from occurring. We will not allow a Solar hegemony to grip this region."

<Cerin?> "I am in no place to stop them, not with words. They have ..firm views on such things." Cerin considers

<LaiMisuna> "I trust that my view of your abilities was not mistaken, Cerin."

<LaiMisuna> "You will find a way."

He seems to consider for a moment, then speaks again. "Keep them out of the southeast as well. Rathess must remain safe from their predations. That is a priority. Is this understood?"

Lai glares at Cerin for a moment. "Then I will mobilize others in case you fail. Do not fail, Cerin."

He begins to turn away, then adds: "Just a final note. If you see Seven Leaping Herons again, give him THIS for me."

He draws out a dagger of brilliant red metal and hands it to Cerin. It is quite clear exactly HOW Cerin is intended to deliver this "Present."

<LaiMisuna> "I must depart now; I have urgent business in Haslanti. Godspeed."
