Hmm... If I'm right, this substance is probably a fragment from Star's End.
Word has it that they're only allowing archaeologists access to the Northwestern region of Calpheon.
I must compare the substance you brought me with those uncovered in that area.
However, due to access being prohibited for so long, it has become quite dangerous there of late.
As you can see, my hands are full both figuratively and literally with preparations for the expedition.
I shall entrust the task of moving that substance in your hands, instead.
You'll help me this time as well, right Player?

We'll head off soon, so be careful not to get lost.
The area is extremely dangerous, so be ready!

I knew it... You're not one to back down from a dangerous place like this...
Nothing stands between you and your adventures, eh Player?
Now, it's time I tell you the reason why I am here,
and the task I am about to ask you to do.
