According to Gan, someone had said that Laius was in Pandarung. You went to Erirunerk and asked him about Laius. You were also ordered to stop searching for Kahrun for the time being. Erirunerk told you the name of a place, which was where you found Laius. He said that he wanted to show you the power of the Idgel. So you obtained some materials for him. After you had brought him everything, you went to the damaged Hyperion on the main square in Pandarung. There, Laius gave you the Idgel Core and told you to activate the weapon. You followed his instructions. The system began to light up and started moving. He said that the Hyperion was a weapon developed by the ancient Rune Tribe. He was very happy and said that the experiment was complete. You did not understand what he meant. However, he wouldn't give a clear answer, and would only say that he would soon reveal the true power of the Idgel.
