Mass for the Dead Arc
In the game, Sofie relocates to E-Rantel for her research on monsters. There she meets the protagonist and contracts them to collects samples of the slimes in the city's sewers to discern why the monsters have gone aggressive.

From her analysis she learns that the slimes have traces of alchemical solution, causing them to mutate. The magic caster brought her findings to Lakyus Alvein Dale Aindra, who then called a meeting of the city's representatives and the members of the Tripartite Alliance. Suspicion fell on Hilma Cygnaeus, the executive of the Pharmacist's Guild, for illegally stealing the substance to mutate the slimes. It was later learned that the mutation was an accident caused by the rundown from the artificial herb project, which the solution was permeated in the soil and washed into the sewers.
