Cayna recovers very quickly from her depression, just as Kartatz seeks her out, and she gets properly introduced to Skargo. Later, Elineh hires her as a caravan guard while he travels to the neighboring kingdom of Helshper, since the usual route has been beset by bandits. Although they attempt to take an alternative route, they run into an ambush set by the bandits. However, thanks to Cayna's powerful magic and some summoned allies, the bandits are easily defeated, allowing the caravan to continue on its way.

While investigating the zombie village, Cayna encounters Quolkeh and Exis, who have come here on an assignment of their own, and a young girl named Luka, the only survivor of her community. After determining that the death fog must be a quest event from the game, Cayna summons a NPC butler named Roxilius to look after Luka before she, Exis and Quolkeh set out to defeat the boss monster responsible for this. With the threat eliminated, Cayna journeys to the Guardian Tower she was looking for, the Palace of the Dragon King, whose guardian accepts her as its new master. After adopting Luka as a new daughter, Cayna takes the girl and Roxilius with her.
