Dialogue

Keitha

Seein' as you're here, I've got a favor to ask: gather me six seeds from those plantlike monsters they call roselets.

The oil from them roselet seeds has a calmin' effect on skittish chocobos, see. Any wrangler worth her salt usually has a jar or two lyin' around.

I thought the stock I had would last me a good while, but lately the birds've been as restless as a summer storm.

Chocobos are sensitive creatures at the best o' times, and it ain't unusual for 'em to act a shade agitated all of a sudden... But this is somethin' else.

You'll find them roselets I mentioned up near Galvanth's Spire. Go on now, time's a-wastin'.

Did you have any trouble gettin' them seeds?

Let's see here...one, two, three...yep, there's the full six. Nice big ones, too. We'll squeeze some good oil out o' these.

I still don't have a clue what's been unsettlin' the birds, but whatever it is, hopefully the roselet oil will help calm 'em down a bit...
