To activate this quest, talk to the Knight of Melphina in The Babbling Brook pub. He'll be a Qsiti in armor with a red talk bubble. The knight will ask you to meet with Sir Roberto in the palace. It seems the town's spate of bad luck has spread further than they first thought...
Entering the Palace after this encounter triggers a cutscene showing a Forest Maiden, Leticia, who is bonded to Neo, one of the missing Knights of Melphina. She can perceive Neo's surroundings through their bond. Roberto, the leader of the Order of Melphina, deduces that the knights are in Siebenbur.
Roberto now appears in the Palace with a red talk bubble. He needs your help again. This time to find the lost Knights of Melphina. Upon accepting you will be taken to The Fourth Path in Siebenbur. Roberto will join as a guest union and you will also receive the Moss-Covered Key.

Make your way to the door at E-9 and open it. There will be a scene when you go up the stairs and your exit is removed. Continue the only path left and at L-5 you will be forced into a fight with three Hypnos groups. Afterwards head to the north exit and continue through The Final Fortress to The Fifth Path. You will find the Void Intruder along the way, take him out when you are strong enough. You also earn an achievement for killing the Void Intruder. Simply head to the exit to the the world map in the The Fifth Path, which will bring the end of the quest.

Completed:
A bunch of Melphinian knights vanished, so we headed to Siebenbur after Leticia used her second sight to find us a clue.
We found the knights, but some idiot broke the bridge we crossed, so we have to find another way to get outta here.
We got rid of the danger here! We rock! Time to head back to Melphina!
The knights were rescued from Siebenbur and everyone went back to Melphina. Still don't know who destroyed the bridge...
