Quest Description

Though the beacons have all been placed, Esther remains unable to measure Dragonspine's true height, seemingly due to having insufficient beacons. To resolve the issue, she is looking for someone who can help her plant a beacon at the mountain's summit...

(Talking to Esther): Esther: Ugh, just as I expected... With only a limited number of beacons, the accuracy is nowhere near good enough. There's no way I could use this as a reliable altitude measurement.; Esther: Unless...; ...Unless?; Esther: Unless are fearless adventurer can scale the highest peak and place a beacon there for me.; Like who?; Like me?; Esther: Like you! Please, help me out one more time. All my other beacons keep getting destroyed by monsters, this is the only way to reduce the margin of error in my measurements.; Esther: All you need to do is place it at the summit. If you succeed, I promise I will reward you generously!

(After placing a survey beacon at the summit): Paimon: Brr... Th—That should d—do it...; Paimon: So c—cold... Can we g—go now...

(Reporting back to Esther): Esther: Did you put the beacon in place?; Yep.; Esther: Wonderful! Thank you, now I can finally get a reliable measurement of the height of the mountain.; Esther: Oh, and regarding compensation — I asked Cyrus to put something together. Ask him for it next time you're in the city.; Esther: And since you'll see him before I do, could you also give him this letter for me? He promised to keep me in the loop about a second exploration team for the mountains, but I still haven't heard back about it.; Esther: Once the rest of my beacons are fixed, I'll have to head back up and set them all up. There's a lot of things that still need surveying on that mountain.
(Obtain Letter to Cyrus ×1)

(Talking to Esther again): Esther: *sigh* When will I finally be able to head back up the mountain...

(Delivering the letter to Cyrus): Cyrus: Hello, how may I help?; I have a letter for you.; Cyrus: A letter? ...Oh, it's from her. I'll wager she's asking about the next exploration team again...; Cyrus: *sigh* I don't know what I can do, It's rare to find a team that's willing to take on the mountain these days, it's just too dangerous up there...; Cyrus: I'll write her a letter shortly to explain the situation. Thank you for making the trip to deliver this.; Cyrus: Speaking of letters, she sent another not long ago asking me to prepare a reward for you. Here, please take it.; Cyrus: One last thing... I can see that you are a hardy type, but nevertheless — I urge you to be careful in the mountains.; Cyrus: Ah, Dragonspine... If ever the chance arose to lead a team of explorers there in person, I would surely take it!
