On your travels in Skystone, you’ll usually be in the company of Rooks trying to establish safe zones on the ground, as they build their network of Ether defenses and chip away at the local Mimic threat.  Areas like the Steam City Ruins have long since been completely abandoned, but in some places there are groups who choose to remain in strongholds on the ground rather than joining Nidaria in the sky.

Deep in the Ferric Forest, there is an isolated tribe of Ferric Warriors who have tried to defend their land, though the continued spread of haze has brought more powerful Mimics to roam the areas around their camp.

These Warriors are outfitted in the traditional Ferric clothing, traces of which are still occasionally worn by Nidarian Ferrics.  The sharp armor on their arms comes from the beak of the Ferron, a sacred bird revered for generations, and is still the standard equipment used by Ferrics when fighting.  The Warriors also garb themselves with its feathers, and wear the bird’s skull as a helmet when in battle.

While the Ferric Warriors are wary of outsiders in their lands, they will soon need your help in defending the camp, and may have some information on the wildfire that is causing trouble for your company of Rooks.
