Description
Their very life force is being siphoned to power the ethereals' guns, {name}! This cannot be allowed to continue. Head into the Ethereum Overcroft and free my fellow void elves from the ethereals' clutches. With their freedom, the turrets will have no power, and Turalyon will be able to launch his warframes.
