===Part 3: Alumina Salts===
{{main|A Relic Reborn: The Chimera}}
You now need to defeat [[Dhorme Chimera]] and obtain {{Item icon|Alumina Salts}} from the 8-man [[trial]] [[A Relic Reborn: The Chimera]] while as the job that equips the Zodiac Weapon. The entrance to [[A Relic Reborn: The Chimera]] can be found at [[Coerthas Central Highlands]] (X-32, Y-6). Afterwards report back to [[Gerolt]].

Players with a high-level character (about level 70 or higher) may want to attempt the fight alone at their current level by using the "[[Unrestricted Party]]" duty finder option rather than waiting a long time for a duty finder match. The quest will still progress.

===Part 4: Interview with the Padjal===
{{main|Amdapor Keep}}
#[[Gerolt]] now sends you to back to [[Rowena]] in [[Revenant's Toll]] as he needs the a specific book (the title depends on your [[job]]).
#In exchange, [[Rowena]] wants the {{item icon|Amdapor Glyph}} from the dungeon [[Amdapor Keep]] in [[South Shroud]].
#While in [[Mor Dhona]], purchase {{item icon|Radz-at-Han Quenching Oil}} for {{tomestone|Poetics|15}} [[Allagan Tomestones of Poetics]] and 3x {{item icon|Thavnairian Mist}} from [[Auriana]] for {{tomestone|Poetics|20}} [[Allagan Tomestones of Poetics]] each. Thavnairian Mist will be needed for later parts of the quest; you can save a trip by picking them up now.
#Complete [[Amdapor Keep]] as your chosen job (you can be unsynced) and you will receive the {{item icon|Amdapor Glyph}} upon completing and exiting the dungeon. ''Note'': '''NOT''' [[Amdapor Keep (Hard)]] '''NOR''' [[The Lost City of Amdapor]]'''!'''
#Bring the {{item icon|Amdapor Glyph}} back to [[Rowena]]; and then bring the book back to [[Gerolt]] to continue the quest.

===Part 5: Beastmen Hunt===
You are finally presented with your new Zodiac Weapon for the first time - through [[Unfinished Zodiac Weapons|it's still unfinished]]. Equip your new weapon as your chosen job and defeat 24 specific beastmen in their respective stronghold for your job; then report back to [[Gerolt]].
