==Steps==
*Speak with Martyn at the Holy Stables in Ishgard.

*Gather information at the Last Vigil.

*Speak with Martyn.

*Speak with the tournament attendant.

*Speak with Martyn.

*Speak with Martyn.

*Speak with Martyn in Ul'dah.

==Journal==
*Judging by P'yandih's relaxed demeanor, you are beginning to think guild management is easier than Martyn led you to believe.

*In the quest for your nemesis, Martyn has set his sights on the Holy See of Ishgard, and invites you to meet him there at the Holy Stables. Why he would choose such a peculiar location, only the Fury knows.

*You find Martyn at the Holy Stables, tending to its “bestest boy.” He explains that with the Dragonsong War ended, Ishgard's soldiers have been holding tournaments at the Lightfeather Proving Grounds to keep their lances sharp and skills honed. Regular spectators at the Last Vigil have doubtless seen enough tournament bouts to suggest a fighter worthy to be your nemesis. He bids you go ahead and wait for him there while he finishes his duties at the stable.

*You speak with several patrons at the Last Vigil, all of whom name the same tournament champion─Ser Alaimbert of the Spiked Butt. Perhaps Martyn has heard tell of other promising prospects.

*All roads lead back to Ser Alaimbert, but the question remains of whether he is indeed stronger than Martyn. As they are still taking entrants for the next upcoming tournament, your blue mage companion intends to find out.

*The tournament attendant regrettably informs you the tournament is restricted to lancers and dragoons. Fortunately, Ser Alaimbert happens to overhear the conversation and, being enthused by the prospect of fighting a mage, insists Martyn be allowed to participate in an exhibition match. With the matter settled, Martyn makes to prepare himself for battle.

*Martyn is beginning to believe Ser Alaimbert may be the one to best him, and prove himself worthy of being your nemesis. The revelation vexes him, because it would mean conceding defeat in full view of you, his dear protégé. The matter is compounded when the tournament attendant tells you both that the school of blue magic is strictly forbidden. But Martyn has come too far to back down, and so he steels himself as he enters the arena.

As one might expect, Ser Alaimbert is relentless, and without use of blue magic, Martyn quickly finds himself on the back foot. The situation seems dire as Ser Alaimbert readies to deal a finishing blow, but in a last-ditch effort to protect his pride, Martyn unleashes a series of devastating spells to seal a narrow victory.

*The dust settles, and you are surprised to find that Royse was in attendance for Martyn's spectacular display of magic. It was a bittersweet victory, however, because it proved that Ser Alaimbert was sadly unfit to be your nemesis. Or so it would seem. Now realizing Martyn is capable of wielding more than blue magic, she insists that he become the rival you have been searching for. He is understandably confused, but before he can form a convincing argument to refuse, she ushers you all back to Ul'dah to begin preparations.

*There is naught to do but wait until the Celestium is ready to host its newest attraction. To that end, Martyn bids you rest and prepare for what is to come.

==Dialogue==
{{section-stub|quest|reason=Dialogue, related-npcs and cutscene-npcs need review}}

{{Dialogue|<nowiki>
P'yandih: Back so soon? I can't imagine you've had time to master Rehydration since last we spoke. Let's speak again once you've finished your training, all right?

System: The next blue mage quest will be available from P'yandih upon learning Rehydration.

P'yandih: Well now, what have we here? You've the look of a {{alternatives|woman|man}} ready for battle. Which, I assume, means you've mastered Rehydration. Excellent.
P'yandih: And your timing could not be more fortuitous. Martyn has sent word that he's found promising prospects in Ishgard, and asks that you meet him there at once.
P'yandih: He went on to say you're likely to find him spending time at the Holy Stables. As for why Martyn would choose to make roost there, well... Some questions, I feel, are better left unanswered. But never mind that—you had best be on your way.
P'yandih: Something tells me I'd rather not know why he's biding his time at the stables, but that is neither here nor there. It wouldn't do to keep him waiting.

Martyn: Who's the bestest boy in the stable? You are! Yes you are!
Martyn: Oh, [Forename]! I-I didn't think you would be here so soon...
Martyn: Ahem. As you might've guessed, my coffers have all but run dry, so I've taken up work here at the Holy Stables.
Martyn: Would that there wasn't so much to do here. I've scarcely found time to take up the search for your nemesis. That's not to say I'm without any leads, mind you.
Martyn: With the Dragonsong War ended, I've been told there are scant few opportunities to practice or develop the art of the lance in actual battle.
Martyn: So, to keep their soldiers' skills honed and spears sharp, tournaments are bein' held at the Lightfeather Proving Grounds.
Martyn: Surely, a fighter worthy to be your nemesis could be forged in the flames of such combat.
Martyn: If we were to inquire at the Last Vigil, I'm sure some few there have spectated these matches at the very least.
Martyn: You go on ahead. I'll be with you after I, uh...finish my duties here in the stalls.
Martyn: Folks have been snickerin' ever since I stepped foot here, but I don't see what's so funny. My hat's not crooked, is it?

PATRICIANA04776: The fiercest of the tourney fighters?
PATRICIANA04776: You need look no further than Ser Alaimbert of the Spiked Butt. I daresay no challenger can endure the powerful thrusts of his lance.

PATRICIANB04776: If it is a test of mettle you desire, then I urge you to seek out Ser Alaimbert.
PATRICIANB04776: He is a knight without peer, and the very definition of a gentleman. Indeed, he graciously accepts any and all challengers.

PATRICIANC04776: The tourney champion? Surely, you know of Ser Alaimbert of the Spiked Butt?
PATRICIANC04776: One of Ishgard's finest dragoons, perhaps best known for his tireless efforts on our western border. He took to the tourneys, wishing to keep his skills sharp, and he has yet to be bested.

PATRICIANA04776: You would be hard-pressed to find a lance finer than that of Ser Alaimbert.

PATRICIANB04776: He is a knight whose strength at arms is matched only by his valor. If it is a challenge you seek, you could do worse than Ser Alaimbert.

PATRICIANC04776: Do you believe yourself capable of besting Ser Alaimbert? That would certainly be a sight to see.

Martyn: So, any promising prospects?
Martyn: No different than me, I see. No sooner did mention of the tourney slip my lips than they began singin' praises of this Ser Alaimbert.
Martyn: Clearly, he's the strongest fighter they have to offer, but there's still the question of whether he's stronger than me. Only one way to find out.
Martyn: As luck would have it, they're still acceptin' entries for the next tourney over in front of the provin' grounds. Let's go and have a look.
Martyn: Excuse me, sir, how might I go about entering the next tourney?

ATTENDANT04776: My apologies, but I cannot permit you to enter the tournament. I've no doubt a mage such as yourself would make a suitable challenger, but entry is reserved for lancers and dragoons only.

Martyn: What? You can't be serious!

ATTENDANT04776: I'm terribly sorry, but I do not make the rules. I merely enforce them.

Alaimbert@Dashing Dragoon: Is something the matter?

ATTENDANT04776: S-Ser Alaimbert! Er, this gentleman was seeking to join the upcoming tournament, but he lacks the proper qualifications...

Martyn: Ah, so you are the famed Ser Alaimbert. In my search for worthy opponents, I was told yours is the finest lance in all the Holy See. I would take your measure, and see the truth of these claims for myself.

Alaimbert: You've spirit, I'll give you that. All right... I accept your challenge.

ATTENDANT04776: But...but Ser Alaimbert.

Alaimbert: To be perfectly honest, I've grown weary of the same opponents day in and day out. This could prove to be a refreshing—and sorely needed—change of pace.
Alaimbert: Have him placed before the first match of the tournament, and lest anyone protest, simply call it an exhibition match. Something to whet the spectators' appetites.

ATTENDANT04776: Y-Yes, of course. Right away, sir.

Alaimbert: And what have we here?
Alaimbert: That I should have the privilege of standing face-to-face with the Warrior of Light. If you are interested, I should very much like to try my hand against you as well.

Question: What will you say?

> Perhaps another time.
> We fought before in western Coerthas, or don't you remember?
---

Alaimbert: Very well. If you should ever find yourself in western Coerthas with time to spare, I am always looking for a good sparring partner.
Alaimbert: Ah, so we did! Forgive me. I often find myself inundated with challengers, and have a bad habit of forgetting faces in the thick of battle.
Alaimbert: If I'm not mistaken, our contest was interrupted. All the more reason we should fight again soon. Until then.

ATTENDANT04776: Well, then. It would seem preparations for your ''exhibition match'' are in order. A summons will be issued when all is in readiness.

Martyn: I've a sneakin' suspicion my predicament may have gone overlooked if not for your company. One of the advantages of havin' a world-renowned protégé, I suppose.
Martyn: Now, I had best go and get ready!
Martyn: I'm startin' to believe Ser Alaimbert may be every bit the fighter people claim him to be. In which case...I may actually lose.
Martyn: I realize the whole purpose of this venture was to find someone worthy to be your nemesis. Someone who rivals even my own strength. And yet...
Martyn: The thought of losin' here, in front of you, ''disgusts'' me.
Martyn: Whenever I found myself outmatched, time and again, you were always there to put down the beasts that I couldn't.
Martyn: And though it fills me with joy to see you grow as a blue mage, I'm not without my pride—without limits to the shame I can bear.

Question: What will you say?

> You'll be fine. I believe in you.
> If you feel you can't afford to lose here, then don't.
---

Martyn: I've gotten myself into a right fine mess this time, haven't I? But then, how else are we to find your nemesis?

ATTENDANT04776: Your match is to begin shortly. Please make your final preparations and proceed to the gate.
ATTENDANT04776: But first, might I have your name? Or rather, the name you wish for me to announce to the crowd. An alias will suffice if you prefer.

Martyn: The Great Azuro will do.
Martyn: Somethin' the matter?

ATTENDANT04776: No. Not at all. And what manner of weapon will the ''Great Azuro'' do battle with?

Martyn: I'm not sure my stick would count as a weapon, but I mainly fight with magic—blue magic to be precise!

ATTENDANT04776: ''Blue'' magic!? Sir, that arcane discipline is strictly forbidden here.
ATTENDANT04776: The last challenger who professed mastery of such arts paraded about the arena vomiting fire, fish, and all manner of unspeakable things. To say our patrons were displeased with their spectacle would be an understatement.
ATTENDANT04776: And it is for that reason these tournaments were limited to lancers and dragoons.

Martyn: But the exhibition match was already agreed upon.

ATTENDANT04776: It was indeed, and I do not wish to disappoint Ser Alaimbert. Yet I must also consider those come to witness your contest.
ATTENDANT04776: That is why I will introduce you as a mage hailing from Ul'dah. A ''traditional'' mage, who would not dare wield anything so crude as blue magic. If you do, consider the match forfeit.

JUDGE02011@Tournament Attendant: Ladies and gentlemen! Tonight we've prepared a bevy of battles that are certain to shock and amaze. But first, a special surprise—an exhibition match featuring your champion, Ser Alaimbert of the Spiked Butt!
JUDGE02011@Tournament Attendant: And his opponent. A master of magic, hailing from the shifting sands of Ul'dah: the Great Azuro.

NOBLEWOMAN04776: Do they really intend to do battle in that ridiculous costume?

JUDGE02011@Tournament Attendant: Begin!

Alaimbert: Oh, how I've been waiting for this!
Alaimbert: Why do you not fight? Have you no magick to show me?
Alaimbert: Hmph. A foe barely even worthy of my spear, let alone my butt.
Alaimbert: Let us put an ''end'' to this!

Martyn: I swore blue magic is the only magic I would ever use. But if I'm to win this...

JUDGE02011@Tournament Attendant: The...the winner is...the Great Azuro!

Martyn: Well, that was closer than I would've liked. I can scarcely remember the last time I fought without blue magic.
Martyn: At the very least, it's reassurin' to know I've not grown soft with my other magicks.

Alaimbert: That was quite the display. In all my days, never have I faced a mage so formidable.
Alaimbert: It would seem my training has been sorely lacking. Indeed, if my butt is to be worthy of its name, I must train a great deal harder.

Martyn: Well, I guess we're back where we started... At this rate, I don't think we'll ever find you a suitable adversary.

Royse: I wouldn't be so sure.

Martyn: Royse!? What are you doin' here?

Royse: To be perfectly frank, I was beginning to question if you really were searching for {{alternatives|her|his}} nemesis, and so I came to see for myself how you've been faring.

Martyn: I see... And what exactly did you mean, you're not so sure? Anyone with eyes could see I was clearly the victor in that match.

Royse: Which is precisely why ''you'' shall serve as [Forename]'s rival.
Royse: If I had known you had mastery of other schools of magic, and with such devastating proficiency, I may well have suggested as much sooner.

Martyn: Now hold on a minute! You're not really suggestin' I stop using blue magic, are you?
Martyn: Everythin' I've learned has been in service to betterin' my blue magic spells. I'd never be a match for {{alternatives|her|him}} without them!

Royse: Oh, I'm certain you will make the best of it. You always do.

Martyn: Make the best of it...!?

Royse: Now, let us return to Ul'dah. There is still much work to be done!

P'yandih: I heard the good news! Our patrons at the Celestium are in for a treat.

Royse: Who would have guessed the one we'd been looking for was here beneath our noses all along.

Martyn: It's good to be back in Ul'dah, but this is not at all how I expected to make my return.

Royse: There is still much to be done before your debut at the Celestium. All in good time, my dear. All in good time.

P'yandih: Oh, I can hardly wait. The clash of [Forename]'s azure might with Martyn's magic!

Martyn: I suspect Royse has planned far more than I'd bargain for, but I'm not exactly in a position to shirk my collar here, am I?
Martyn: At any rate, if I'm to do battle with you—and without my blue magic spells—you've little need to add anythin' else to your repertoire. Practice your fundamentals, and I'm sure you'll be fine.

P'yandih: You're only saying that because you're afraid you won't stand a chance if {{alternatives|she|he}} learns any more spells.

Martyn: D-Don't be ridiculous. I'm merely givin' my opinion, is all. {{alternatives|She|He}}'s free to learn whatever spells {{alternatives|she|he}} likes!
Martyn: As for me, I think I'm long overdue for a rest.

==Steps==
*Speak with Martyn at Mealvaan's Gate in Limsa Lominsa.

*Speak with Martyn and have him accompany you.

*Speak with crew members on the ''Astalicia'' while Martyn is accompanying you.

*Speak with Hasthwab while Martyn is accompanying you.

*Speak with Martyn.

*Speak with Martyn near the Rogue River in middle La Noscea.

*Speak with P'yandih in Ul'dah.

==Journal==
*P'yandih seems to be having an easy time managing the guild.

*P'yandih has recently received word from Martyn, asking that you meet him at Mealvaan's Gate in Limsa Lominsa. Hopeful this means he has found a worthy candidate for your nemesis, she quickly sends you on your way.

*You find Martyn finishing a lesson with a former pupil, receiving arguably unwarranted compensation for his teachings. With his business finished, he explains that the Executioners may likely have a fighter among them suitable to be your nemesis. To that end, he suggests paying a visit to the ''Astalicia</Emphasis> to speak with their members.

*Despite knowing what needs to be done, you cannot help but notice Martyn's apprehension to speak with the Executioners. He suggests you take the lead while he observes from a comfortably safe distance.

※You must be accompanied by Martyn to complete this task. Speak with him again should you become separated.

*Accompanied by Martyn, you go and speak with several members of the Executioners. They offer two potential candidates, but sadly neither is ideal for your needs. Martyn suggests looking for a higher ranked member who may be more knowledgeable of capable pirates in La Noscea.

*Together you eventually happen across Hasthwab. Though he doesn't seem in a particularly talkative mood, he does offer a valuable piece of information. A man named Octobeard claims to be the right hand of Mistbeard, and has been seen frequenting the Drowning Wench. Considering Mistbeard's renown, you are convinced any man worthy to work at his side is more than capable of being your nemesis. And so you make for the tavern.

*Needing to be certain of the man's strength at arms, Martyn challenges Octobeard to trial by combat. The pirate accepts, though perhaps not with the grace or bluster you expected. He bids Martyn come to the Rogue River, and so the two of you take your leave and prepare to test his mettle.

*With a flourish of his cane, Martyn assails Octobeard with several spells, rendering the pirate seemingly incapacitated. Wishing to know his true identity, Martyn removes his mask and reveals him to be Trachtoum. His aim in adopting the identity of Octobeard was to freely partake of ale from the Drowning Wench. He promises never to do it again and begs his leave before running off, tail between his legs. With no other leads, Martyn believes it time to set his sights elsewhere. He bids you go and report back to P'yandih in Ul'dah while he seeks new leads.

*You relay the unfortunate news to P'yandih, but she doesn't appear at all discouraged by the unexpected turn of events. She promises to inform Royse and bids you farewell─but not before suggesting you go and learn Schiltron to round out your repertoire of spells.

==Dialogue==
{{section-stub|quest|reason=Dialogue, related-npcs and cutscene-npcs need review}}

{{Dialogue|<nowiki>
P'yandih: As I recall, Martyn tasked you with learning new blue magic before you returned. Considering the trials to come, I think it prudent you heed his advice.

System: The next blue mage quest will be available from P'yandih upon learning Goblin Punch.

P'yandih: You've the look of a {{alternatives|woman|man}} who's mastered new techniques. I take it you followed Martyn's advice?
P'yandih: As much as I would love for you to regale me with tales of your training, we recently received word from Martyn requesting your presence.
P'yandih: He asks that you meet him at Mealvaan's Gate in Limsa Lominsa. I think he may have finally found our fighter.
P'yandih: I didn't expect Martyn would be in Limsa Lominsa of all places, but that's where he's asked you to meet.

ARCANIST04774: It seems I've still much to learn...

Martyn: You've got to empty your mind, lad. Be formless, shapeless. Like water!
Martyn: Oh, [Forename]. I wasn't expectin' you to arrive so soon.
Martyn: I couldn't help but stop by the old trainin' grounds, you see, and a former classmate of mine insisted on receivin' some specialized instruction.

ARCANIST04774: Martyn's advice has always been nothing short of inspirational! You would be hard-pressed to find one more adept at the arcane arts here at the guild.
ARCANIST04774: But his genius doesn't stop there! That he might better comprehend the nature of magicks in all corners of the world, he has mastered near every school of magic there is.

Question: What will you say?

> You never told me you'd mastered other schools of magic.
> But I thought you were devoted wholly to blue magic.
---

Martyn: Masterin' all those magicks was the only way the wisdom of the Whalaqee could be fully realized in blue magic.
Martyn: Even so, if I'm to be a ''true'' master of the blue, I can't fall back on all them other spells I've learned now, can I?
Martyn: That'll do for today. If you stay the course, and take my teachin's to heart, I'm sure you'll do just fine.

ARCANIST04774: Thank you, Martyn, thank you! I haven't much money, but here—a small token of my appreciation.

Martyn: Right, then. About your nemesis. After weighin' our options here in Limsa Lominsa, I reckon a member of the Executioners could be just what you're lookin' for.
Martyn: It remains to be seen if they'll be willin' to speak with us about their skill at arms, let alone agree to takin' you on as a rival at the Celestium, but we won't know for certain unless we try, eh? Come on, let's head over to the ''Astalicia''.

ARCANIST04774: Be water, he said... Wait. Did he mean to use a spell and literally ''become'' water, or...?

Martyn: Seein' as this is your nemesis, why not take the lead in gettin' to know them? I'll be right behind you. Promise.
Martyn: And if you hear anythin' that sounds like knees clackin', don't worry—it's simply my excitement at becomin' showmaster. Yes, that's it, my excitement...

System: Martyn is now accompanying you. Keep him at your side in order to proceed with quest objectives.
System: You can leave Martyn behind by entering a different area, or by speaking with him and selecting the option to part ways.
System: If you wish to have Martyn accompany you again, return and speak with him at the original location.
System: While you are accompanied, you may encounter “conversation points” along the way which offer additional topics of discussion.
System: Enter the glowing area and speak with your quest companions to initiate these bonus conversations. Enjoy exploring your surroundings together!

Question: What will you do?

> Speak with Martyn.
> Part ways with Martyn.
> Nothing.
---

Martyn: The lead of any good show should have an established rapport with the bloke playin' opposite them, no? All the more reason you should be the one to take the lead here. You can think of it as further blue mage trainin' if it helps.

System: Are you sure you wish to part ways with Martyn?

Martyn: Bah, it figures some matter of ''earth-shatterin''' importance would call you away. Though I suppose in your case, it's no exaggeration. Well, far be it from me to keep you. I'll wait for you at the ''Astalicia''.
Martyn: Everythin' settled? Then let's get back to it. Ahem, after you...

BLOODYEXECUTIONERA04773: Business with the Executioners, ye say?

BLOODYEXECUTIONERB04773: ...Well? What do ye want?

Hasthwab: What business 'ave ye with the Executioners?

System: You must be accompanied by Martyn and have him at your side in order to proceed with quest objectives.
System: Martyn has yet to arrive. Be sure he is at your side before attempting to continue.

> '''Discuss the docks.'''
---

Martyn: You can find them off-loadin' cargo at all hours of the day. And where there's cargo, there's sure to be payments exchangin' hands. Which means...
Martyn: Aha!
Martyn: Another gil for the ol' coinpurse!
Martyn: Damn. And here I was hopin' they'd be a little looser with their coin...

BLOODYEXECUTIONERA04773: What's that? Our sharpest axe, ye say?
BLOODYEXECUTIONERA04773: That'd be Hyllfyr, though it ain't every day we get strangers ''askin''' to be hacked to bits.

Martyn: I don't mean to offend, but he's gettin' on in years, and if the rumors are true, he has a bad lung besides. I think it best we look elsewhere.

BLOODYEXECUTIONERB04773: A strong arm to grapple with? And what's to say I ain't good enough, hm?
BLOODYEXECUTIONERB04773: ...Bah, fine. If it be the cream yer after, then ye should go an' speak with Captain Sicard. No sharper shot in all o' La Noscea.

Martyn: Captain Sicard? By no means a terrible prospect, but seein' as he's the actin' captain of the Executioners, he's like to demand a considerable price. And more importantly, he'd cut into my profits...
Martyn: Hmmm. Maybe tryin' to recruit from the Executioners wasn't such a great idea after all. But we can't just leave empty-handed.
Martyn: Well it's clear we're not gettin' anywhere talkin' with the lowly rank and file. What we need is someone with a little more authority to help us cast a wider net.

BLOODYEXECUTIONERA04773: Hyllfyr's the man yer after, but don't say I didn't warn ye.

BLOODYEXECUTIONERB04773: If present company ain't suited to yer ''lofty'' standards, I suppose you could go an' speak with Captain Sicard. You won't find a better marksman.

Hasthwab: Ye need a duelin' partner for puttin' on some show?
Hasthwab: The Bloody Executioners ain't interested in dancin' for coin, {{alternatives|lass|lad}}. You'll have to search elsewhere.

Martyn: O-Of course. Far be it from us to overstay our welcome.
Martyn: Though, if you know of any pirates who might be willin' to take up our offer—not those of the Executioners, of course—we'd be much obliged for aught you can tell us.

Hasthwab: Hmmm... Come to think of it, there's been talk o' late about some bloke what claims to be the right hand o' Mistbeard 'imself come to town. They say 'e spends most of his time at the Drownin' Wench.
Hasthwab: Wears a red mask, an' calls 'imself “Octobeard,” if ye can believe it.

Martyn: Octobeard, eh? Anyone who keeps company with Mistbeard is sure to make a worthy opponent. Thank you, sir. Much appreciated.
Martyn: Well then, shall we pay a visit to the Drownin' Wench?

Hasthwab: A bloody odd name if ye ask me, that Octobeard. Bein' the supposed hand o' Mistbeard, though, can't imagine anyone's got the stones to question 'im.

Martyn: Can't imagine we can convince him without a fight, so I thought it only right I dress for the occasion—best foot forward and all that. Now, where is this Octobeard fellow...

Trachtoum@???: I be Mistbeard's right-hand man. Aye, I reckon that I am.♪ Fuddlin' me cap afore, sneakin' out the pub's back door.♪ Aaand nobody'll ever know.♪

Martyn: That's him, if we're to believe those sour notes of his. Let's be about it, eh?

Trachtoum: Huh!? I-It's you!

Martyn: Oi, Octobeard! I'd like to have a word... I-If that's all right, that is.

Trachtoum: I...er...ahem! I don't care for yer tone, ye preenin' little shite!
Trachtoum: If it be a battle yer achin' for, then uh...then I guess I'd better give it to ye! Outside by the Rogue River. Five minutes...

Martyn: I didn't see him leave as such, but he ''is'' coming...isn't he? I wouldn't mind lookin' for another candidate of course, but...
Martyn: There you are! I was hopin' you wouldn't—I mean, that you ''would'' show up!

Trachtoum: Aye, here I am! ...But there ain't no shame in turnin' tail, lad. Really. I wouldn't hold it against ye for leavin'. Right now...

Martyn: Have at you!
Martyn: Take this!
Martyn: And that!
Martyn: Had enough, you barnacle-brained oaf?
Martyn: Ye gods! ...Did I overdo it?
Martyn: Well, he's still breathin'. That's somethin', I suppose. Now, let's see who's under that mask.

Question: What will you say?

> Just as I suspected. Trachtoum.
> I know you. You're the one that claimed to have slain Tidu—I mean, Titan.
---

Trachtoum: Mercy! Mercy! All I wanted was a pint of ale...or three, and I'd heard the tavernkeep's on good terms with Mistbeard's crew. I told 'em I was his right-hand man, then one thing led to another...
Trachtoum: But you know the truth. About me member, about everything... So please, I beg of ye—just let me go!
Trachtoum: I swear I can change! You'll see!

Martyn: So he was an impostor all along. Pity...
Martyn: Even if he really was the hand of Mistbeard, anyone who'd fall to me is certainly no match for you. We'll just have to keep searchin'.
Martyn: I don't know about you, but I think it's time we set our sights elsewhere. Could I trouble you to go and report back to P'yandih in Ul'dah?
Martyn: I'll be sure to send word when I've found new prospects.

P'yandih: Welcome back, [Forename]. Any luck in Limsa Lominsa?
P'yandih: Oh, that's quite unfortunate. Even so, Royse must be informed, but you let me worry about that.
P'yandih: Before you go, though, it wouldn't do to send you off without any guidance in your blue mage training.
P'yandih: As I recall, Martyn said that Schiltron would go a long way in bolstering your repertoire of spells. Come and see me once you've mastered it.

==Walkthrough==
{{action icon|Schiltron}} is available via:
{{dropped by|Schiltron}}

==Steps==
*Speak with Martyn at the Carline Canopy in Gridania.

*Speak with Martyn at Bentbranch Meadows.

*Survey the area at the designated location.

*Survey the designated location.

*Speak with P'yandih in Ul'dah.

==Journal==
*P'yandih still seems to be having an easy time managing the guild.

*As P'yandih tells it, Martyn has caught wind of another promising candidate somewhere in the Black Shroud. She says he awaits your arrival at the Carline Canopy, urging you to hurry there before he finds himself in trouble.

*You find Martyn serving drinks and waiting tables at the Carline Canopy, allegedly for the purpose of affording room and board, as well as picking up on local gossip. He goes on to explain that a bandit has been terrorizing any and everyone who passes through the Shroud. Such a man, both formidable and seemingly desperate for coin, would be a worthy choice to hire into the Celestium's employ. With his shift at the tavern ended, Martyn bids you follow him to Bentbranch Meadows.

*Martyn arrives dressed ready for battle, and he is heartened to see you are as well. Knowing the bandit was last spotted in the Jadeite Thick, he suggests splitting up to track them down faster.

*You work your way through the thick of the thicket, yet try as you might, there is no sign of the bandit. Undeterred, you set out for another vantage point to continue the hunt.

*At last you find the dreaded bandit of the Jadeite Thick. Much to your surprise, however, he has already been defeated by a band of blue mages. They explain that they initially came to test the limits of their magic, but are nevertheless grateful for the sizable bounty they will receive for turning in the bandit. The sizable bounty Martyn incidentally forgot to mention. Sadly, the bandit's defeat served only as proof that they were not the rival you were hoping for, and so your search must begin anew. While Martyn sets off in search of a new lead, he asks that you return to Ul'dah and report back to P'yandih.

*P'yandih is sad to hear of what took place in the Black Shroud, but she is hopeful Martyn will have better luck elsewhere. Assuming he does manage to find a fighter worthy to be your rival, she suggests learning the spell Rehydration to supplement your already impressive arsenal of spells.

==Dialogue==
{{section-stub|quest|reason=Dialogue, related-npcs and cutscene-npcs need review}}

{{Dialogue|<nowiki>
P'yandih: Still working to master that new blue magic, I trust? I suspect you'll have need of it when you're finally face-to-face with your nemesis.

System: The next blue mage quest will be available from P'yandih upon learning Schiltron.

P'yandih: Good to see you, [Forename]. If you're here, then I take it you've finished studying that spell as Martyn asked. Good.
P'yandih: And your timing couldn't be better. I've a missive from Martyn.
P'yandih: He says he's found another promising candidate, this time in the Black Shroud. You're to meet with him at the Carline Canopy. I'd suggest you leave sooner rather than later, before he finds himself in trouble.
P'yandih: If this candidate is as strong as he says, he's like to be in over his head. I suggest making for Gridania as soon as possible.

Martyn: We have tables available for anyone seeking refreshment here at the Carline Canopy. I highly recommend our freshly brewed tea, or a bowl of our famous—
Martyn: [Forename]!?
Martyn: Before you say anythin', I've a perfectly good explanation. It's Royse's fault, and all her gil-pinchin'. With what little she gave me, I could scarcely afford the trip here.
Martyn: Thankfully, workin' here at the Adventurers' Guild not only covered my room and board, but also gave me the chance to listen in on the latest gossip.
Martyn: Word has it there's a notorious bandit at large, preyin' on merchants and travelers passin' through the Shroud.
Martyn: They routed the Wood Wailers and no one's seen hide nor hair of the adventurers who've been foolish enough to investigate.
Martyn: I assumed it was a veritable army, but no—it's all the work of a single bandit. Tell me that doesn't sound like a nemesis worthy of Azuro the Second?

Question: What will you say?

> Surely, you can't be serious?
> You want to hire a criminal? Really?
---

Martyn: What? It's not as if they won't be made to pay for their crimes first.
Martyn: Besides, thievery usually means they want for coin, don't it? With steady pay at the Masked Carnivale, they'd have the chance to turn their life around.
Martyn: At any rate, we need to stop them before anyone else does.
Martyn: That is to say, it'll all be for nothin' if they're apprehended by the Wood Wailers. And our timin' couldn't be better—my shift just ended. Meet me at Bentbranch Meadows when you're ready. We can start our search from there.
Martyn: Dressed for battle as well, I see. Your nemesis-to-be is said to be making camp in the Jadeite Thick. We're like to find them faster if we split up.

System: You see no sign of the bandit. Perhaps you will have better luck near Greentear...

Martyn: Do my eyes deceive me, or is this a band of...blue mages!?

BLUEMAGE04775: Master Martyn? By the Twelve, what a most fortuitous meeting!
BLUEMAGE04775: The four of us became fast friends at the guild, you see, and decided it best if we travel the realm together, both to fill our logs and test the limits of our blue magic.
BLUEMAGE04775: When we heard there was a notorious bandit roaming the woods, we couldn't well stay away. He was a formidable foe, to be sure, but thankfully our efforts proved enough.
BLUEMAGE04775: I can certainly understand now why there was such a sizable bounty on his head. It will go a long way toward the purchase of our home in one of the adventurers' residential districts. We're thinking of settling down in {{alternatives|Limsa Lominsa|Gridania|Ul'dah}}.

Question: What will you say?

> Bounty!? I didn't hear anything about a bounty!
> So you were only in it for the gil...
---

Martyn: Don't give me that look. With how little Royse compensates me, how else was I to account for my expenses? That the bounty would have left me with gil to spare is just a happy coincidence.

BLUEMAGE04775: Hm...?
BLUEMAGE04775: Are you...? You are! Azuro the Second! Your contests at the Celestium have been an inspiration to us all!
BLUEMAGE04775: Safe journeys, {{alternatives|miss|sir}}. I hope someday we might live up to your example.

Martyn: I never realized there were so many blue mages traipsin' about in search of spells.
Martyn: <sigh> Just my luck...
Martyn: Don't tell me you're still upset about the bounty? The bandit's been brought to heel, and that's all that really matters in the end.
Martyn: Unfortunately, their victory over the blackguard proves we were clearly mistaken in our choice of candidate.
Martyn: Which means we're back where we started.
Martyn: If you would go and share what we've learned with P'yandih in Ul'dah, I'll see about findin' another lead.

P'yandih: Welcome back, [Forename]. Returned with good news, I hope?
P'yandih: I see... How unfortunate.
P'yandih: Well, I will see to it Royse is apprised of the situation. Thank you again for your efforts.
P'yandih: In the event Martyn ''does'' find a candidate worthy to be your rival, I think it prudent you add more spells to your arsenal. As I recall, Martyn claimed Rehydration is a spell worth learning. Come and speak with me again once you've learned it.

__NOTOC__
==Flavor Text==
Certain species of armadillo have learned to channel aether into their shells, thus granting them the hardness of metal. A similar stratagem allows the blue mage to reflect physical blows back upon an attacker─though unfortunately, both armadillo and man still feel the intial, teeth-rattling impact.

The Occult Crescent: South Horn/Treasure Coffers

2026-04-25T19:16:32Z

ParalysedBeaver: /* Happy Bunny Coffers */

This page contains locations of treasure coffers within {{i|The Occult Crescent: South Horn}} and drop tables. All coffers contain personal loot.

Random overworld coffer locations are specific per player, while chewed carrot locations are specific per instance.

All data are sourced from [https://gacha.infi.ovh/occult/ here].

==Random Treasure Coffers==
<section begin="Random Treasure Coffers" />
There are two types of coffers that may randomly spawn in certain locations in the overworld: bronze and silver. Bronze coffers contain one item, while silver contains three. Completing the Forked Tower, Critical Encounters (CEs), FATEs, and defeating normal (chainable) overworld enemies will respawn coffers, with bronze coffers having a higher chance to respawn than silver coffers. The Forked Tower provides the highest respawn rates overall, followed by CEs, then FATEs, and finally normal enemies. Logging out, changing instances, or waiting will not cause coffers to respawn. The cap on the number of random chests is 8 silver and 30 bronze.

Exact respawn rates are as follows:<ref>[https://discord.gg/foexiv Field Ops Enjoyers Discord], July 13, 2025</ref>

<nowiki>*</nowiki>The level of the enemy or chain number does not affect the respawn rates, as long as the enemy level is sufficiently high enough for the player to earn gold pieces from it.

The Lv. 10 {{phantom job|freelancer}} [[Phantom Freelancer]] action {{action icon|Occult Treasuresight}} will display the number of bronze and silver coffers that are currently unclaimed.

These coffers contain a very large variety of items, including rare items from previous [[Field Operations]]. Because of the high spawn rate of the chests, their contents are available at low prices on the [[Market Board]].

{{main|Persistent Pot}}<section begin="Persistent Pot Coffers" />
To interpret the below maps, check which direction the pot leads you by using the {{item icon|Magical Elixir}} key item after completing the FATE, then check the compass rose for which color the direction corresponds to. The possible coffer locations correspond to the color. The left map corresponds to {{i|Persistent Pots}}, while the right map corresponds to {{i|Pleading Pots}}.

When the player reaches the coffer location, there is an uncommon chance (~10%) for the pot to offer to repeat the minigame and lead the player to a second treasure coffer, which is guaranteed to be gold. The following map shows possible bonus coffer locations. These are in high-leveled areas where the player should avoid fighting the enemies.

<section begin="Happy Bunny Coffers" />
All South Horn treasure coffers (except for silver random overworld coffers) may rarely drop a {{item icon|Fortune Carrot}}, which can be used on chewed carrots randomly found on the ground in certain locations to spawn a [[Happy Bunny (Mob)|Happy Bunny]], which will offer a golden treasure coffer with a different reward pool than overworld bronze or silver coffers.

*In a given instance, there are two chewed carrots on the map at all times in pre-determined locations.
*The carrots are visible to all players. The location of a carrot may sometimes be called out in /shout chat by a player.
*If a player uses a Fortune Carrot on a chewed carrot, it will disappear and another will instantly respawn in a spot where there is not a carrot, ''including'' the spot where the carrot just was.

==Lore==
{{quotation|Encyclopaedia Eorzea Volume III, p. 57|'''Legend of the Lost Lady'''

Three centuries past, the plucky princess Edvya, tired of being sequestered within palace walls by her overprotective father—the sultan Baldric Thorne—exchanged garb with a miller girl and wandered off into town in search of adventure.

Upon learning of his daughter's disappearance, the sultan was stricken with panic. He summoned the palace guard, ordering them to tear the city apart to see that no harm befell his precious princess—and tear the city apart they did. The poor miller whose daughter assisted the princess in her escape saw his house nigh ripped from the ground, while the family was threatened with imprisonment and worse.

To the good fortune of all, Princess Edvya was soon found just outside the palace walls, and was quick to reveal the truth of recent events. Racked with guilt, the sultan had the miller's house rebuilt by his most skilled craftsmen, and offered to personally serve as seneschal to the miller girl for a day to atone.

Rumors of this unforeseen display of humility were quick to spread through Ul'dah. So well received were they, in fact, that the sultan declared one day from each solar year on which he would select, via lots, a common girl from the city and serve as her personal seneschal, as he had done with the miller's daughter.

*Speak with [[Royse]] at the [[Goldsmiths' Guild]].
*Speak with [[Royse]] at the [[Thaumaturges' Guild]].
*Speak with [[Royse]] at [[the Quicksand]].
*Speak with [[Martyn]].
*Speak with [[Martyn]] again.

==Journal==
*Martyn has his pearls of wisdom at the ready.

*Martyn's plans to take you and two of his students on a training exercise are scuppered by the unannounced arrival of Royse and Fyrgeiss. The Celestium's owner is taking her newfound investor on a tour of Ul'dah to show him what goes on behind the scenes of the Masked Carnivale. Despite Martyn and his blue magic playing a major role in the shows held at the arena, Fyrgeiss is more interested in the methods used to collect and maintain the extensive menagerie of opponents. Royse invites you to join them as she introduces her benefactor to the various parties involved, while Martyn sets about preparing a demonstration to showcase the prowess of the Blue Mages' Guild, with an eye to secure investment from Fyrgeiss.

*The first stop on Royse's tour is the Goldsmiths' Guild, and Fyrgeiss is informed of their provision of several types of mechanical foes, including combat-ready mammets and floating Allagan nodes. Visibly impressed, the wealthy Syndicate member is keen to learn what other types of creatures the Celestium has in its collection as Royse leads the way to the Thaumaturges' Guild.

*Fyrgeiss is informed that voidsent summoned through arcane experiments are regularly delivered into the Celestium's keeping. Royse assures him that the necessary measures are in place to prevent their escape and that even the Coliseum─of which Fyrgeiss is a keen supporter─has been known to use voidsent itself. His concerns regarding their safe handling now well and truly allayed, he follows Royse to the Adventurers' Guild.

*Royse reveals that most of the Celestium's beasts are actually captured by members of the various Adventurers' Guilds as part of an ongoing agreement. Fyrgeiss admits that the selection of beasts used in the Masked Carnivale far surpasses that of the Coliseum, and spontaneously decides to increase the amount that he will invest in Royse's arena. Meanwhile, Martyn should have had enough time to prepare his demonstration, so the three of you return to the Blue Mages' Guild.

*Martyn is all set to exhibit his vast array of spells when Fyrgeiss suddenly announces that he has a prior engagement, at the Celestium of all places. He explains that a gladiator under his patronage is due to perform there and invites you all to view the match with him. Entering the arena, you are greeted by the sight of an armor-clad contestant known as Siegfried triumphing over Ultros, a relatively recent addition to the Masked Carnivale. Rather than sheathing his sword, he turns to point it straight at Martyn, the gesture clearly meant as a challenge to his alter ego, the Great Azuro.

*Outside the Celestium, Fyrgeiss appears with Siegfried by his side, who is none other than his eldest son Zirnberk, commander of the Stone Torches. The match between Siegfried and the Great Azuro was arranged as a means of attracting potential recruits to Amajina & Sons Mineral Concern's private army. Fyrgeiss then reveals that he was only interested in blue magic as a means by which to illustrate the superiority of his son's gladiatorial fighting arts over more showy and extravagant styles. Once the father and son have departed, Martyn runs the gamut of emotions from anger to exasperation, and finally, false bravado when he vows to wipe the floor with his hulking opponent. Royse sees an opportunity for Martyn to save face─primarily her own─by triumphing over Zirnberk, and suggests that he prepare accordingly. Soon after she has left, Martyn confides in you his apprehensions towards the match, and that he would rather divert his energies into his duties as guildmaster in the time remaining before the fateful day. He asks that you arm yourself with the Exuviation spell, a powerful healing spell, possibly due to his fear that circumstances may force you to take his place in the ring, as was the case in the encounter with Whastrach.
**※The next blue mage quest will be available from Martyn upon reaching level 58 and learning Exuviation.

==Journal==
*Martyn greets you with a confident smile.

*The day of the exhibition match has come, and Martyn proclaims himself ready for the duel. Mostly. Actually, he would feel far more confident if he could somehow reclaim the costume that Gyodo stole and sold off. He invites you along to stalk the back alleys of Kogane Dori, and flush out the unscrupulous Namazu.

*You succeed in accosting Gyodo, only to discover that he auctioned off Martyn's outfit piece by piece. It seems you will need to scour the shops and stalls of Kugane in order to purchase them back. Martyn says he will search the markets of the Rakuza District, and volunteers you to visit the merchants of Kogane Dori.

*Your queries into the whereabouts of Martyn's costume are met with discouraging news: from what you can gather, some Lalafell fellow has been a step ahead of you in purchasing the various articles of blue mage apparel. If you hurry, however, you might still catch the man somewhere nearby...

*The Lalafell flees at your approach, but after cornering him in an alley, the young man's shoulders slump in resignation. It is Nutiba Buntiba. He mournfully admits to being Bluehood, and confesses his part in stealing the soul crystals and organizing the festival. Unwilling─and seemingly unable─to explain his actions, he nevertheless seeks to make some small amends by putting the full set of the Great Azuro's costume in your hands. Nutiba bids you deliver the outfit to Martyn, who awaits you outside the castle gates near the Ijin District.

*A bemused Martyn accepts the costume from you, and enters the arena for his duel with Golden Goliath. Despite his best efforts, however, the guildmaster finds himself overwhelmed by his opponent's mastery of multiple forms of spellcraft. Thoroughly dejected, but unable to contain his curiosity, Martyn once more lingers by the gates to interrogate the man who thrashed him so soundly.

*In answer to Martyn's incredulous questions, Golden Goliath claims to have had no mentor─that his arts are “inimitable.” Rudely dismissed by the crowing Kageyama, Martyn trudges back to the teahouse once more.

*Aflame with the desire for a rematch, Martyn decides that a more thorough investigation into Golden Goliath's inimitable arts is in order. He then turns his attention back to the teahouse customers, but not before advising you against neglecting your own advanced studies.

==Journal==
*Martyn appears restless and frustrated.

*Martyn, frustrated by his attempts to discern the nature of Golden Goliath, has hit upon the simple plan of following his opponent from a discreet distance. Join the guildmaster in his spying efforts near the castle gates.

*Golden Goliath finally makes his exit from the castle, and you and Martyn begin tailing your prey. You follow along, undetected, and eventually arrive at Pier #2...

*After a brief talk with the falcon porter, Martyn informs you that Golden Goliath appears to have commandeered a special bird on a direct route to the village of Namai. The guildmaster urges you to hurry to the settlement in Yanxia before your quarry is lost.

*You rendezvous with Martyn in Namai in time to see that the inhabitants are obviously familiar with the strange behavior of Golden Goliath. Reasoning that the residents might know the mysterious combatant better than the citizens of Kugane, Martyn suggests that the two of you split up and ask a few questions.

*Your conversations with the villagers reveal that Golden Goliath was formerly known as “Gogo,” a mimicry artist of some renown in the region. Seek out Martyn, and share your revelations.

*Although your investigations turned up some interesting facts, it would seem that Martyn has made a new friend who is willing to divulge a more complete history of the enigmatic Golden Goliath. The old villager reveals that “Gogo,” as the champion was otherwise known, was part of his troupe of performers in the time before Lord Kaien's rebellion. A miraculous mimic, Gogo gained fame for his impossible imitations before a change in fortune saw him seek out a new stage as the undefeated star of the Fukumen Fighting Festival.

*By the time you return to the docks of Kugane, Martyn has decided on his strategy for tackling the formidable Golden Goliath. Footwork and flexibility will be the key to victory, and it is with this goal in mind that the guildmaster returns to his training. Or at least he will, once the customers have been served their tea.

*Martyn appears to have mastered the art of teahouse customer service.

*Martyn, despite settling in well at the teahouse, has had little luck in convincing Kageyama to allow a rematch. Enter Royse. Driven beyond the limits of her patience and determined to take matters into her own hands, the Celestium's manager arrives in Kugane like a wrathful storm. She informs you of the appointment she has arranged with Nutiba Buntiba outside the castle gates, and commands you to accompany her there at once.

*After admitting his part in exploiting Royse and Martyn's accomplishments, a shamefaced Nutiba lays before you the sorry tale of his betrothal and subsequent servitude as a prisoner of Kageyama's ruthless manipulations. Then, as if summoned by the cursing of his name, Kageyama emerges from the castle with Golden Goliath in tow. At first, he balks at Royse's insistence on a rematch, but once she sweetens the pot with ownership rights to the Masked Carnivale, the Kugane merchant prince seems positively eager to seal the deal. You and Golden Goliath are now scheduled to duel in the Celestium, an arrangement which sees you and Martyn packing your bags for the return journey to Ul'dah.

*Royse meets you at the Blue Mages' Guild with a new costume and a sudden pre-match date with Gogo, Master of Mimicry, in which the challenger to your title is introduced to the Celestium's cheering crowd. With the gauntlet decidedly thrown down, you find yourself back on the street with Royse, the strident voice of the announcer still ringing in your ears.

*Royse urges you on to victory before departing on some managerial errand, leaving Martyn to advise you on what he considers to be a winning strategy. It seems that, once again, the fate of the Celestium rests upon your azure-clad shoulders. Enter the Masked Carnivale, and unleash a tempest of blue magic that even the Master of Mimicry cannot hope to imitate!

==Journal==
*P'yandih appears to have been waiting for you.

*P'yandih, otherwise applauded in the Celestium as “Azuro the Fourth,” appears to have been awaiting your arrival. After a brief greeting, she hands you a letter from Martyn─a missive from the mysterious Far East. You scan the plaintive note and learn that the guildmaster has encountered some manner of trouble, and requests assistance at your earliest convenience. It would seem that your path leads to a teahouse in front of the Sekiseigumi Barracks in Kugane...

*You arrive in Kugane to find Martyn working in a teahouse, the odd conclusion to an unfortunate string of events that befell him not long after his own arrival in the city. Robbery and public indecency notwithstanding, the guildmaster assures you that he is finally able to set aside some time to pursue the true purpose of his journey. He would, however, appreciate any aid you can render during his investigation into the Fukumen Fighting Festival. To that end, you are to make your way to the Shiokaze Hostelry, and learn what information you may from the patrons within.

*Your inquiries at the Shiokaze Hostelry have shed some light upon the nature of Kugane's own fighting arena. Return to Martyn and report your discoveries.

*You share your information with Martyn, and he reluctantly concludes that obtaining a ticket to the festival will require dealing with a black market merchant. Follow the guildmaster into the back alleys of Kogane Dori.

*The shifty merchant you encounter is none other than Gyodo, the Namazu responsible for robbing Martyn in the first place. In an act of contrition─and sniveling cowardice─Gyodo returns the guildmaster's stolen money, and also presents him with an entry token to the festival. A few coins richer, Martyn suggests an immediate visit to the castle gates, where a Fighting Festival ticket taker should be waiting to admit you to the show.

*Although Gyodo appears to have deceived you with a cheap ticket, you nevertheless enter the festival and view the opening match. Martyn is appalled by the event's blatant similarities to the Masked Carnivale, and shocked to discover that the entrepreneurial combatant known as “Bluehood” speaks with the voice of Nutiba Buntiba. Before you can discover anything further, however, you are forced to exit the premises.

*A furious Martyn decides to linger by the castle gates and wait for his dishonest disciple to emerge. Bluehood, when he eventually does appear, is adamant that he is not the person Martyn thinks he is. The festival's manager, Kageyama, then comes out to cut the guildmaster's tirade short. He challenges the “founder of blue magic” to prove the authenticity of his claims in a duel against the reigning champion, Golden Goliath─a proposal which Martyn recklessly accepts. Wondering at the wisdom of his decision, your erstwhile mentor hurries back to his post at the teahouse.

*Committed to his course, Martyn wisely chooses to spend the time leading up to the exhibition match investigating the fighting style of his opponent. Meanwhile, he exhorts you to continue your training in preparation for the unlikely event that you will be required to take his place in the arena.

==Trivia==
* This quest's title is a reference to the song "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kung_Fu_Fighting Kung Fu Fighting]" by Carl Douglas. In particular, it references the first two lines of the song's chorus: "Everybody was kung fu fighting / Those cats were fast as lightning".
** The intended target of this quest is a Coeurl (cat) boss inside The Temple of the Fist (a martial arts temple). This corresponds with the second line of the song's chorus, which refers to martial arts fighters as "cats".

==Journal==
* Hasdahd is deep in thought.

*Hasdahd mulls over the elder's words, desperate to do more for his village now that he is home. He hopes to come up with an answer by catching up with those he hasn't seen since fire rained from the skies.

*Your companions are all too happy to have you accompany them on their tour of the village. As the hero who saved Palaka's Stand during the Final Days, you will no doubt have ample opportunity to ask questions of the villagers. Mehdjina adds that there are “others” with whom she wishes to speak as well, and as understanding passes between them, you glimpse a raw pain in Hasdahd's eyes.

※You must be accompanied by Hasdahd and Mehdjina to complete this task. Speak with either one of them should you become separated.
*Your tour of the village draws to a close, and Mehdjina and Hasdahd exchange a glance. It is time to make another journey, they tell you─one into the jungle and to the temple of Purusa.

※You must be accompanied by Hasdahd and Mehdjina to complete this task. Speak with either one of them should you become separated.
*The jungle is never silent, but a stillness descends as Mehdjina and Hasdahd offer prayers to their parents who perished during the Final Days. You observe from a distance, your presence alone ensuring no beasts approach the pair.

*Having fulfilled this personal obligation, Mehdjina and Hasdahd are now ready to address the village's situation, and your words of guidance are all they need to piece together an idea to secure the future prosperity of both Palaka's Stand and Tataru Taru's Boutique.

* Elder Yeruvvet is impressed with Mehdjina and Hasdahd's idea to sell handcrafted goods through the boutique. He wishes the pair well on their journey back to Sharlayan, and the two leave with hearts far lighter than when they arrived.

*You return to happy tidings: Tataru's necklace has been successfully restored by the selfsame lapidary to whom Tataru was once apprenticed. The finished piece is even more stunning than anyone anticipated─and for the final touch, Varsarudh insists that you engrave the symbol of Nald'thal into the backing of the sapphire. After you oblige her to the best of your ability, the four of you scurry off to Scholar's Harbor to await Tataru's imminent return.

*After briefing Tataru on events in Palaka's Stand, Mehdjina pitches her idea for Hannish handicrafts, which the entrepreneur takes to straightaway. The subsequent confirmation that her employees intend to remain with the boutique for the foreseeable future gives Tataru cause to relax. However, the air still tingles with anticipation...

*Tataru jovially accepts the surprise gift handed to her─and then, as her gaze falls upon the tear-shaped sapphire, her eyes grow wide in recognition. As she listens to the tale of the necklace's restoration, the weight of what she now holds becomes clear: a fragment of what she thought lost framed by all she has gained. A celebration of the connections she has forged with people throughout the world, and the beauty they have brought into countless lives.

*Tataru's bespoke chocobo barding has reassuring heft and will doubtless fit your constant companion like a glove. As you part ways with Tataru Taru's Boutique, you are sure it will continue to enjoy remarkable success for its peerless wares. As for what other grand endeavors the ambitious young woman may embark on in the future─only time will tell.

==Journal==
*Venat has Argos and his double at heel.

*Having proven yourself to him, Argos is now willing to lend you his back. Venat suggests you move over to the edge to give your mounts a better launching point.

*Argos delivers you and Venat to the isle, where at first you find nothing out of the ordinary. Venat suggests a glimpse into the past, which reveals to you a conversation wherein Meteion reports to Hermes on the progress of her star-fairing sisters. The child overseer's vow to accept their discoveries with an open mind gives you no impression that he might desire an apocalyptic end to the world - indeed, you return to the larger island intent on recruiting his help in solving the mystery of the Final Days.

*Venat directs your search for Hermes to Ktisis Hyperboreia - the largest facility in Elpis. The path to the facility lies to the north of Poieten Oikos, where a teleporter will transport you to Ethoseletikos Boreas.

*You have arrived in Ethoseletikos Boreas. Venat stands nearby with further instructions.

*The former Azem gives you directions to Ktisis Hyperboreia, before setting off for the facility herself. It seems all you need do is follow the road to the crossroads, then turn left...

*You meet with Venat at the door to the facility, but just as you make to venture inside, you come face-to-face with Emet-Selch and Hythlodaeus. After hearing the results of their investigations, you realize that all have arrived at much the same conclusions with regards to the chief overseer and his research. It is then agreed that if the true nature of the Final Days is to be understood, you will need to enlist the aid of Hermes himself.

==Dialogue==
===Accepting the quest===
'''Venat:''' Let us move over to the edge before mounting, shall we?
'''Venat:''' That will allow Argos to catch the currents rising up from below, and give us a smooth ride over to the isle.

''Optional dialogue''
'''Venat:''' Climb onto Argos's back and we can be off. ...You know, I honestly cannot remember the last time he carried anyone but me.

===Approach Argos. (Cutscene)===
Argos motions to his back with his muzzle. You've been given the go-ahead to hop on!

'''Venat:''' Isn't this pleasant? Argos certainly seems to think so.
'''Venat:''' Now, what was the name of that tree...?
'''Venat:''' Noe...something... Ah! Noetophoreon! Quite a striking specimen, is it not?
'''Venat:''' Brace yourself for the landing ─ I wouldn't want you tumbling off at the last moment.

| Voiced cutscene |
'''Venat:''' Quite a small place, lacking even the most basic equipment.
'''Venat:''' The present may yield no clues, but we may yet try perusing the past. Have you done this before?
'''Venat:''' So you cannot control the power freely. Worry not, I shall assist you.
'''Venat:''' Come and stand before me.
'''Venat:''' There are two ways to see the past.
'''Venat:''' The first entails peering through the walls of the soul in the moment a subject is recalling a memory.
'''Venat:''' The second requires no subject, and is instead a process of piecing together an event from ripples left in the ambient aether.
'''Venat:''' As memories are etched upon the aether of the soul, so too are they etched upon the aether of the world. In this way can history be preserved.
'''Venat:''' Such memories are given to fading, however, and can prove challenging to visit.
'''Venat:''' But come, let us try. Close your eyes.

'''Meteion:''' All units fully functional and proceeding on course towards their respective stars.
'''Meteion:''' Estimated time to completion of survey is one hundred and eight cycles.
'''Meteion:''' End of status report. Severing connection with shared consciousness.
'''Meteion:''' Did you hear that, Hermes? All is well!
'''Hermes:''' Yes, good tidings at long last...
'''Hermes:''' Every step of the way, I've been reminded how little we understand creation. How the universe defies imagination.
'''Meteion:''' But soon we won't need to speculate. We'll know the answers ─ what others live for!
'''Hermes:''' Indeed... And we'll owe it all to you and your sisters.
'''Meteion:''' I wonder... What answers we will get?
'''Hermes:''' Whatever intelligent beings that exist out there are bound to be vastly different from us.
'''Hermes:''' Diverse in form and culture. Possessed of unique ways of thinking.
'''Hermes:''' Their conception of life and its purpose will be no exception. Completely and utterly unlike ours.
'''Meteion:''' Utterly unlike...how?
'''Hermes:''' I have no idea...
'''Hermes:''' Yet whatever answers we receive, I will not dismiss them out of hand. No, I will think earnestly on them all.
'''Hermes:''' Then I will share them with our people, that together we may contemplate our own existence.
'''Hermes:''' Perhaps then our star will become a better place ─ not only for man, but for all life.
'''Hermes:''' Meteion. Though I gave you wings to soar the heavens, I did not teach you how to walk the earth. So loath was I to bind another living being.
'''Hermes:''' In the course of your long journey, you will learn from those you meet. Learn to walk and run and so much more.
'''Hermes:''' And when you return, older and wiser, we will have a celebration to mark your homecoming and coming of age both.
'''Meteion:''' Will there be apples? Covered in syrup?
'''Hermes:''' And how are you supposed to eat them?
'''Hermes:''' Hmm... Rather than food... Perhaps...
'''Hermes:''' A flower.
'''Hermes:''' Yes. Upon your return, I will gift you a beautiful flower.

'''Venat:''' So, what is your opinion?

'''''What will you say?'''''
> Hermes wouldn't wish for the Final Days.
'''Venat:''' I am inclined to agree.
'''Venat:''' As we had suspected, the two are somehow involved. Yet 'tis difficult to believe that they would deliberately seek to end all life.
> Hermes is a gentle soul. And yet...
'''Venat:''' I understand. He is a gentle soul, and well intentioned. Yet it does not take ill intent to beget ill.
'''Venat:''' We must consider the possibility that something may have gone awry. Perhaps it was oversight...or simply an accident.
> I couldn't say just by this moment alone.

'''Venat:''' In light of this...
'''Venat:''' I propose that we reveal your tale to Hermes himself.
'''Venat:''' If he does not wish for the Final Days, as we believe, he may well join us in pursuing a solution.
'''Venat:''' Then it is settled. Let us seek out our friend with all swiftness.
'''Venat:''' 'Twould not do to let such a pure soul be blackened by tragedy.
| Voiced cutscene end |

===Speak with Venat.===
'''Venat:''' There are any number of places where Hermes might be in Elpis...
'''Venat:''' But we could do worse than to look in Ktisis Hyperboreia, the largest facility. It stands in Ethoseletikos Boreas, the northern isle.
'''Venat:''' I wonder, [Forename] ─ for an institution which claims to studiously research every species destined for release into the world, did you not question how they find room for them all on so few islands?
'''Venat:''' The answer lies within Ktisis itself. I touched upon the practice before back at the archives, where a vast area is stitched together out of multiple conceptual spaces. The same holds true for the interior of this facility and its magically constructed environs.
'''Venat:''' 'Tis there, within those sprawling habitats, that the chief overseer and most of Elpis's observers conduct the bulk of their work.
'''Venat:''' Come, the simplest route is via the neus north of Poieten Oikos...

===Travel from northerly Zephyrneus to southerly Boreneus.===
This appears to be the teleporter Venat told you about.
Motes of light yet hang in the air, suggesting the device was but recently activated...

===Speak with Venat.===
'''Venat:''' Ah, good, the neus acknowledged you as my guest. You should now have the authority to use it as you wish.
'''Venat:''' As for the way to Ktisis Hyperboreia, we follow this path, then turn left at the crossroads.

===Speak with Venat again. (Cutscene)===
'''Venat:''' Here we are: the grandest research facility in Elpis.
'''Venat:''' We should head inside and ask after Hermes's whereabouts...
'''???:''' Hermes is at another facility...as we have just discovered.
'''Hythlodaeus:''' Furthermore, we've confirmed that his studies into dynamis, as well as his creation of Meteion, were entirely private pursuits.
'''Hythlodaeus:''' No one else we spoke with appeared to possess the chief's depth of knowledge on the subject, and neither did we hear any tales of stolen research.
'''Hythlodaeus:''' Which means that if Hermes himself harbors no desire to bring down an apocalypse, then he might be recruited to help prevent one...
'''Hythlodaeus:''' ...Or so sayeth the illustrious Emet-Selch.
'''Emet-Selch:''' According to your story, the Fourteen divined the connection between the celestial currents and the Final Days, but were never able to pinpoint the root cause of the calamity.
'''Emet-Selch:''' With our people's greatest minds ─ not to mention Hythlodaeus's sharp eyes ─ committed to the pursuit of a solution, such an outcome seems...inconceivable.
'''Emet-Selch:''' The only possible explanation is if the nature of the catalyst was so inexplicable that even we failed to perceive it.
'''Emet-Selch:''' And what better fits that description than the invisible, intangible dynamis?
'''Hythlodaeus:''' Which in turn, leads us to our next question: how did Hermes, in his role as Fandaniel, not recognize the subject of his own research?
'''Hythlodaeus:''' We must assume that he either knew and was unable to help, or that he was otherwise prevented from identifying the cause in the first place. At this juncture, all we can do is speculate.
'''Emet-Selch:''' To be clear, the Convocation does not tolerate acts of deception or malice. We are practiced at perceiving truth, and would have known had Fandaniel lied to us.
'''Emet-Selch:''' Hermes has no conscious wish for the world to end. Of that, I am certain.
'''Venat:''' It seems there is more to the tale after all.
'''Venat:''' We conducted an investigation of our own, you see...
'''Emet-Selch:''' How comforting... We seem to have reached the exact same conclusion.
'''Emet-Selch:''' I see no reason to delay further. 'Tis time we brought Hermes into the fold, as it were.

'''''What will you say?'''''
> Thank you for your understanding.
'''Emet-Selch:''' Save your thanks. I did not say I believed your ridiculous story.
'''Emet-Selch:''' But as Emet-Selch, I have a duty to examine any potential threat to our existence. No matter how ludicrous or personally offensive I may find it.

'''Venat:''' If you would go on ahead to my accommodation, I will join you as soon as I have attended to that task.
'''Venat:''' Follow the path straight ahead to the building at the top of the slope. I have the entire place to myself, so we can speak without fear of being disturbed or overheard.

''Optional dialogue''
'''Hythlodaeus:''' You needn't be nervous around Venat ─ those white robes mark her as one of fair and impartial reasoning.
'''Hythlodaeus:''' Aside from the emissary, Elidibus, such garb is worn only by those who have stepped down from public office to serve as advisors. Whatever you have to say, she will listen without judgment.

'''Emet-Selch:''' Yes, this will be far more comfortable than interrogating you on the side of the road.

===Speak with Venat. (Cutscene )===
'''Venat:''' Welcome to my temporary abode. Please, make yourself at home while I put on some tea.

| Voiced cutscene |
'''Hythlodaeus:''' A wonderful aroma... I feel more relaxed already.
'''Venat:''' Would that I had sweetmeats to offer, but I travel light out of habit.
'''Venat:''' There's plenty of hot water, though, so please have as much tea as you like.
'''Venat:''' Now then...will you tell us your tale?

'''''What will you say?'''''
> A calamity called the Final Days has befallen the world.
> The world has been sundered... broken into shards.
> Mankind is being forced to flee the star.

'''Emet-Selch:''' Why don't you start from the beginning?

'''Emet-Selch:''' Preposterous. Utterly preposterous.
'''Hythlodaeus:''' While not the words I would have chosen, I too have my doubts. Much of it borders on the incredulous.
'''Hythlodaeus:''' What of you, Venat?
'''Venat:''' Not knowing the precise details of the first Final Days, 'tis difficult to determine the veracity of the tale.
'''Venat:''' Supposing it is all true, I must ask myself why I would do what I did.
'''Venat:''' Why would I feel I had no recourse but to oppose the Fourteen and create this Hydaelyn...
'''Venat:''' Circumstances change, of course, but it would not have been an easy decision regardless.
'''Venat:''' No, there must have been a reason. One compelling enough to force me to take such drastic measures.
'''Venat:''' Then there is the Elpis flower, which I said would serve as a guide.
'''Venat:''' That it's of import to your mission is plain, but your presence here leads me to believe that this place also holds significance.
'''Venat:''' But what could it be? What are we meant to accomplish?
'''Hythlodaeus:''' Might it not be simply thus?
'''Hythlodaeus:''' In the future whence he came, the Final Days could not be averted. Mankind has no choice but to flee the star.
'''Hythlodaeus:''' By alerting us to that eventuality, perhaps you wished to pave the way for other futures.
'''Hythlodaeus:''' Theoretically speaking, it is a possibility.
'''Venat:''' Yet if that were my primary objective, I see no reason to guide our friend to Elpis specifically.
'''Venat:''' The Capitol in Amaurot, or even my own home would be more logical destinations.
'''Hythlodaeus:''' True, true... I note also that Hydaelyn did not specify a point in time to which he must return.
'''Hythlodaeus:''' By this, it may be inferred that it was not critical that we should meet.
'''Venat:''' Alternately, She had reason to believe that our paths would converge, coincidental though it may seem.
'''Hythlodaeus:''' This is quite a puzzle, and we do not have all the pieces...
'''Venat:''' Hardly any. But we do have one immutable fact.
'''Venat:''' If the Final Days are indeed as described, they will bring death to all that I hold dear.
'''Venat:''' Yet despite being afforded long years of preparation, the only provisions I could make were...for flight?
'''Venat:''' Nay, my first and foremost endeavor would be to find a way to forestall the coming doom.
'''Hythlodaeus:''' Given that even the Fourteen failed, mayhap you deemed it impossible.
'''Venat:''' Nothing is impossible. This, I have always believed.
'''Venat:''' And if Hydaelyn is indeed me, She would believe the same.
'''Emet-Selch:''' Listen to yourself. Are you seriously entertaining the notion that you are a messianic figure in some far-fetched tale?
'''Emet-Selch:''' Well, I will not. I refuse to accept that our world could be undone by some unforeseen calamity.
'''Emet-Selch:''' I also take offense to my portrayal as a megalomaniacal madman.
'''Emet-Selch:''' To sacrifice oneself for the star is a noble act, and I would hold those who gave themselves to this Zodiark in the highest esteem.
'''Emet-Selch:''' Yet you claim I recreated Amaurot and populated it with phantoms of our people. A bizarre indulgence that would be insulting to their memory.
'''Emet-Selch:''' Worse still, I even ''invited'' you there ─ literally invited my own downfall. Why would I do something so idiotic and inexplicable?
'''Emet-Selch:''' Now, I will allow that the hypothetical task of restoring our world would be daunting in the extreme. The thought of having to bear such a burden for a thousand ''thousand'' lives horrifies me.
'''Emet-Selch:''' But I would never forsake my duty! I would never forsake my brethren!
'''Emet-Selch:''' You do not know me!
'''Emet-Selch:''' I've had my fill of your fiction. I will return to my duty...and you will not bother me again.
'''Hythlodaeus:''' Emet-Selch! Wait!
'''Venat:''' You've seen much of Elpis already. If you have any observations to share, I should like to hear them.

'''''What will you say?'''''
> Dynamis is key to all of this.
> Hermes and Meteion are somehow involved.
'''Venat:''' Hermes and his creation Meteion, you say?
'''Venat:''' If dynamis is the selfsame energy as akasa, as it likely seems, then those two may well be at the center of the calamity to come. This warrants further investigation.
> I'm still trying to make sense of it all...

'''Venat:''' With that settled, 'tis time for action.
'''Venat:''' The missing pieces of the puzzle are here, I'm certain of it. And when you find them, the picture my future self has painted will be complete, and you will have your answer.
'''Venat:''' Suffice it to say I will aid you in your quest.
'''Venat:''' Have faith. If Emet-Selch is the man Azem described to me, we've not seen the last of him.
| Voiced cutscene end |

===Speak with Venat again.===
'''Venat:''' Shall we begin our investigations, then?
'''Venat:''' I am acquainted with Hermes, of course, but only as a visitor received by the chief overseer of Elpis. Of the man himself, I know only that which is common knowledge.
'''Venat:''' Thus I suggest we fall back on the tried-and-true method of conversing with the locals. The observers who live here can surely tell us more of Hermes and Meteion, and I have a good idea of where we might begin...

===Speak with Venat once more.===
'''Venat:''' See you the woman standing in front of yonder building? Her name is Ismene.
'''Venat:''' She is the one who made arrangements for my stay in Elpis, and from what I recall, she has held her position here for quite some time. Chances are she can provide us with some insights.
'''Venat:''' Go and ask your questions. I will help with drawing out answers if need be, but I leave the choice of topic up to you.

''Optional dialogue''
'''Venat:''' Let us speak with Ismene. You know more of this coming calamity, so I think it best that you lead the conversation.

===Speak with Ismene. (Cutscene)===
'''Ismene:''' Questions? For me? Well, I suppose I have no other pressing duties at the moment...
<blockquote>The following event cannot be skipped.</blockquote>
'''Venat:''' Greetings, Ismene. My friend here is desperately curious about Chief Hermes, and I was wondering if you might indulge him.
'''Ismene:''' Certainly, Mistress Venat. Anything to be of service!
'''Ismene:''' What do you wish to know?

'''''What will you say?'''''
> What kind of person is Hermes?
'''Ismene:''' Well, I can only answer from my own experience, but...
'''Ismene:''' I would describe him as a quiet man ─ reserved, you might say ─ and occasionally somewhat poor with his choice of words.
'''Ismene:''' His reticent nature, however, does not prevent him from carrying out his duties as chief overseer.
'''Ismene:''' The man is a walking archive when it comes to life-forms. He can discuss any species in incredible detail, and is the leading authority on concepts with the power of flight.
> What are Hermes's interests?
'''Ismene:''' ...His interests?
'''Ismene:''' Well, he is an authority on flying life-forms, and has expansive knowledge of living creatures in general. Is that what you wished to know...?
'''Venat:''' How would you describe him as a person? As a colleague?
'''Ismene:''' His reticent nature, however, does not prevent him from carrying out his duties as chief overseer.

'''Ismene:''' I hope that answers your question. Was there anything else?

'''''What will you say?'''''
> How long has Meteion been here?
'''Ismene:''' I cannot rightly say... As the chief's personal creation, Meteion has not been subjected to observation and study like other concepts.
'''Ismene:''' So one day, she was simply there. And what do you make of her abilities?
> Do you know of Meteion's abilities?
'''Ismene:''' It's no secret that she is a highly unusual familiar. Of late, the chief often makes his rounds with her, like a mother hen raising her chick.

'''Ismene:''' I understand that she is a highly unusual familiar, able to read emotions and communicate directly with one's mind. Exactly how she was created with that talent, however, is a mystery to me.
'''Ismene:''' My apologies. I wish I could explain her nature in more depth, but I've not had occasion to discuss it with Chief Hermes.

'''''What will you say?'''''
> Do you wish you knew him better?
'''Ismene:''' The chief may not be the most gregarious individual, but he engages with us as is necessary for everyone to perform their duties. I wouldn't want to intrude upon his privacy for the sake of curiosity...
'''Ismene:''' Though if you wish to learn more about Meteion, you could try speaking with Timaios ─ another expert in the creation of flying concepts.
'''Ismene:''' He should be conducting his observations on the banks of the stream, somewhere to the east. Oh, and, uh, unless you take a particular joy in rambling discourse, I suggest you keep your questions concise.
> Do you trust him?
'''Ismene:''' I...beg your pardon? I've known Chief Hermes for many years. Though I cannot say we are close, he has never withheld information to the detriment of our duties, if that is what you mean...?
'''Venat:''' Forgive us, we seem to have veered slightly off course here. Is there perhaps someone else who could tell us more about Meteion?
'''Ismene:''' That would be Timaios. He has a similar expertise with flying concepts, and is more than eager to discuss the subject.
'''Ismene:''' You'll find him conducting his observations on the banks of the stream, somewhere to the east. Oh, and, uh, unless you take a particular joy in rambling discourse, I suggest you keep your questions concise.

'''Venat:''' We shall keep that in mind. Thank you for your patience and your insight.
'''Ismene:''' Think nothing of it. If there is aught else you need during your stay, please, do not hesitate to ask.
'''Venat:''' Come, [Forename], I think we've taken enough of Ismene's time.

===Speak with Venat.===
'''Venat:''' Our investigation is off to a fine start, wouldn't you agree?
'''Venat:''' From here, I propose that we split up. I shall continue making inquiries with the resident observers, if you could track down the colleague Ismene mentioned.
'''Venat:''' While I did feel compelled to interject once or twice during that previous conversation, you seem more than capable of drawing forth the answers you seek.
'''Venat:''' All I ask is that you watch your footing around the stream! We can meet back here once you've finished speaking with this Timaios.

''Optional dialogue''
'''Venat:''' I will start from one side of the compound and make my way through, speaking to as many people as I can. We should have plenty to discuss upon your return.

===Search for Timaios. (Cutscene)===
'''Timaios:''' Yes, yes, I am Timaios, but please keep your voice down. You'll startle the birds.
<blockquote>The following event cannot be skipped.</blockquote>
'''Timaios:''' ...So, what is it you wished to speak about?

'''''What will you say?'''''
> Is it true you're an expert on flying creations?
> What do you think of Chief Hermes's flying creations?
'''Timaios:''' Chief Hermes's work? A worthy subject, indeed...
'''Timaios:''' Those beings which soar through the clouds, majestic and graceful, are ever a favorite of creators. Even now, with so many varieties in existence, the flood of newly imagined concepts continues unabated.
'''Timaios:''' What sets the chief's creations apart, however, is how they benefit from his boundless knowledge of the celestial realm.
'''Timaios:''' Birds that climb so high that they disappear from view. Others which traverse the boundless sky in moments, and all without riding the currents...
'''Timaios:''' I know of none save he who can conceive of such marvels. Even we who prize elegance of form above all else are dumbfounded by his genius.

'''''What will you say?'''''
> Why not mimic his process?
> Meteion, too, is a marvel, then?
'''Timaios:''' My opinion on that matter would be superficial at best...
'''Timaios:''' Despite my admiration for Meteion as a concept, I have never delved too deeply into the inner workings of her nature.
'''Timaios:''' I know that she has a gift for communicating via emotions, but otherwise, her abilities are a mystery to me.
'''Timaios:''' If Chief Hermes should choose to submit Meteion's concept to the Bureau of the Architect, then will the design be registered for public scrutiny. Analyzing a colleague's creation before that step is...frowned upon, to say the least.
'''Timaios:''' Of course, if he came to me ─ a fellow artisan ─ looking for advice, that would be an entirely different story.

'''''What will you say?'''''
> Do you know of dynamis and entelechies?
'''Timaios:''' Dynamis and...entelechies?
'''Timaios:''' Those terms do sound vaguely familiar... Was there not a flower made here in Elpis which exhibited properties of one or the other?
'''Timaios:''' It must have been ''centuries'' since I last heard anyone speak of such things. Has there been a resurgence in interest?
'''Timaios:''' Then why bring up the subject? I'm flattered that you sought my insight, but I cannot afford to neglect my duties for the sake of idle chatter.
> I could tell you more of Meteion's nature, if you like?

'''Timaios:''' Now, I really must return to my observations. Surely you have your own tasks to attend to?

===Speak with Venat.===
'''Venat:''' Back already? That was quick work. You were obviously clever enough to head off any of that “rambling” Ismene mentioned.
'''Venat:''' So, have you any new findings to share?
'''Venat:''' I see. Even an expert in the field had little understanding of Meteion's capabilities, let alone an awareness of dynamis.
'''Venat:''' My questions resulted in much the same answers. Hermes's colleagues view Meteion as his personal project, and could provide no details beyond those which you just told me.
'''Venat:''' Which leads me to believe that the only person with any significant knowledge of dynamis is Hermes himself.
'''Venat:''' Yes, we've made some progress here...but more information is needed if we are to reach any definitive conclusions.

''Optional dialogue''
'''G'raha Tia:''' Nothing like a feast to lift the spirits. I trust you enjoyed yourself as well?

'''Y'shtola:''' If the Forum truly has been spurred to action by Hydaelyn's prophecy, then is it not odd that the Antitower was entrusted to Master Matoya, who bears them no love?
'''Y'shtola:''' No doubt She has a reason for this, and I would know what it is...

'''Estinien:''' Beasts and blasphemies may be running amok in nearby lands outside the influence of Radz-at-Han and the alliance. If so, I may need to go hunting.

'''Alisaie:''' Ahhh...!
'''Alisaie:''' Well, I suppose I do feel better on a full stomach, after all. Burning skies? Blasphemies? Not if I've got anything to say about it!

'''Alphinaud:''' The Final Days ─ how far has the phenomenon spread, and how does it manifest itself in each land? I must reach out to my friends in each nation and find out all I can.

'''Thancred:''' Should Ryne ask questions, don't hide the truth from her. If anything, see if she has any insights to offer.
'''Thancred:''' She's not a child in need of protection, but a comrade we should be willing to rely upon. Even if a part of me may always beg to differ.

===Accepting the quest===
'''G'raha Tia:''' Take this, [Forename] ─ my spirit vessel.
'''G'raha Tia:''' Empty now, of course, but it should allow you to operate the tower's systems in the Umbilicus.
'''G'raha Tia:''' If even the smallest fragment of Elidibus's essence remains, it should be possible to locate it.
'''G'raha Tia:''' As for access to the Umbilicus, pray seek out Lyna for assistance. Chances are she still stands watch at the Accensor Gate.
'''G'raha Tia:''' Should she or anyone else ask after me, tell them...I am living my life to the fullest. That I am happy, hardships and all.
'''G'raha Tia:''' ...Well, we had best be on our respective ways. Gods willing, we will see each other again ere long.

===Speak with Lyna. (Cutscene)===
'''Lyna:''' [Forename]! You are returned!
'''Lyna:''' Have you been well? You and the others...

'''''What will you say?'''''
> As well as can be.
> We've no shortage of troubles, but we're well enough.

'''Lyna:''' Then things are much the same for you as they were here. My lord is doubtless enjoying himself.
'''Lyna:''' He...he said this to you? These exact words?
'''Lyna:''' Oh, to know that he is happy... It fills my heart with joy.
'''Lyna:''' Thank you, [Forename]. For taking care of him.
'''Lyna:''' When next you see him, please tell him not to overexert himself. Futile a request though it is.
'''Lyna:''' And tell him that all is well here.
'''Lyna:''' The peace you gifted us continues, and we work hard to build new lives for ourselves.
'''Lyna:''' In the course of this we occasionally bicker, but we've never been more optimistic for the morrow.
'''Lyna:''' If I had to mention one dilemma, it would be the question of our governance. Even as we speak, debate rages on over how we should run the city in the Exarch's absence.
'''Lyna:''' Most are of a mind that the Settlement council should continue to oversee the general running of the Crystarium, while representatives are elected to determine policy and handle diplomacy.
'''Lyna:''' Thus far nothing is set in stone, but however we choose to proceed, we will not replace our lord. No one could.
'''Lyna:''' ...Have we recently observed any unusual phenomena?
'''Lyna:''' No, I cannot say there have been. Curious that you should ask me this question, though...
'''Lyna:''' Some days ago, Ryne came and asked the very same. She was rather unsettled ─ in stark contrast to how cheerful she has been of late.
'''Lyna:''' She and other Crystarium youths just hosted a festival, you see.
'''Lyna:''' It proved so popular that there are already plans for another celebration ─ one much bigger than the first.
'''Lyna:''' Between her preparations for the festival and the restoration of the Empty, she struck me as happy and full of life.
'''Lyna:''' So when I saw her in a state of such worry, I couldn't help but feel worried in turn. Especially since she wouldn't tell me what troubled her.
'''Lyna:''' I daresay she would be more willing to confide in you. May I ask you to broach the subject with her?
'''Lyna:''' You wish to enter the Umbilicus? Very well. I shall fetch the key at once ─ and take the opportunity to find Ryne.
'''Lyna:''' Please wait for me in the city, in front of the Cabinet of Curiosity, shall we say. I will be along as soon as I can.

===Wait for Lyna in front of the Cabinet of Curiosity.===
<blockquote>The following event cannot be skipped. You may wish to cancel any pending Duty Finder registrations.</blockquote>
'''???:''' ...Do my old eyes deceive? Is that truly [Forename]?
'''Beq Lugg:''' Hah, it is! Full glad am I to see you hale and whole, my friend!
'''Moren:''' What a wonderful surprise it is to have you back with us ─ and at this most opportune time!
'''Moren:''' In case you haven't heard, we are planning to produce a tome chronicling events from the Flood to the night's return.
'''Moren:''' For this project, we intend to draw upon records kept by the world's peoples.
'''Moren:''' Historical and contemporary firsthand accounts will be the centerpiece of the tome, but yours would be the one to crown them all!
'''Beq Lugg:''' I've been asked to contribute a chapter on the soul ─ a subject that is key to understanding much of your endeavors.
'''Beq Lugg:''' In the course of developing the spirit vessel, I gained valuable insights into travel beyond the rift. Knowledge that will allow me to attest to your existence and deeds!
'''Moren:''' There is no end to the questions I would ask you, but if you could indulge me just one for now...
'''Moren:''' In your quest to restore the night, you faced many a formidable foe.
'''Moren:''' Among them, who offered you the greatest struggle?

'''''What will you say?'''''
> Titania, driven mad by Light and loneliness.
> Vauthry, in his misguided self-righteousness.
> Hades, who bore the burden of his people.
> This may come as a surprise, but...
'''Moren:''' T-Truly? I never would have guessed... But then if I could, I suppose I wouldn't have had to ask.

'''Moren:''' 'Tis a tremendously eye-opening answer, and we will see that your account of this battle features prominently in the tome!
'''Beq Lugg:''' I know you'd love to talk his/her ear off, Moren, but we really should be on our way. Those documents from Eulmore won't collect themselves.
'''Moren:''' Of course, of course. And afterwards, would you care to join me for tea? I was hoping you might clarify a few points in your treatise...
'''Beq Lugg:''' Till next time, then. Do tell the others to look after themselves.
'''Beq Lugg:''' Our overzealous friend, in particular ─ remind him not to overexert himself. Again and again till his ears fall off, if that's what it takes for him to take it to heart.

'''???:''' <gasp> Is that the Warrior of Darkness!?
'''Riqi-Tio:''' It's him! It's really him! What are you doing here?
'''Riqi-Tio:''' If you're going to battle, I can give you some medicine! I made it myself!
'''Eirwel:''' Best not, Riqi. You'd only give him a stomachache.
'''Eirwel:''' We've come to see Moren. To get his advice.
'''Eirwel:''' One of the guard finally agreed to teach us how to fight. But first, we need to choose a fighting style.
'''Eirwel:''' While I know that I want to be a mage, Arkil isn't sure.
'''Arkil:''' Magic isn't really my thing. So I was thinking of taking up the axe. Or the sword. Or maybe the bow!
'''Arkil:''' They all seem all right, but it's hard to decide, so I thought I'd ask Moren. He knows about lots of things.
'''Arkil:''' He isn't here? Awww...
'''Riqi-Tio:''' Ooh, ooh! Why don't you have the Warrior of Darkness choose for you?
'''Arkil:''' What do you think suits Arkil best? Axe, sword, or bow?

'''''What will you say?'''''
> For smiting your opponent, the axe.
> For protecting your friends, the sword.
'''Riqi-Tio:''' The sword... If you took up the sword, you could be just like...
'''All:''' Branden, the Warrior of Light!
> For fighting and hunting both, the bow.
'''Riqi-Tio:''' The bow... If you took up the bow, you could be just like...
'''All:''' Renda-Rae, the Warrior of Light!

'''Riqi-Tio:''' I love that tale! Let's borrow the book today!
'''Eirwel:''' It's really popular, though. I hope it's still there...
'''Arkil:''' Thanks for helping me decide, Warrior of Darkness! I'll start with that style, and maybe try something else later on.
'''Arkil:''' And when I get really strong, I hope to have a bout with you!

'''???:''' Hmph... Such fun he's been having basking in the adoration of musty old bookworms and wide-eyed younglings, but does he spare a thought for me? Of course not!
'''???:''' I waited and waited and waited, but he won't so much as acknowledge the presence of his beautiful branch even though they're right here! Such a heartless thing our sapling is! Cold and cruel and ''heartless''!

'''''What will you say?'''''
> Uh... Feo Ul? I...er, need you?
> O faithful Feo Ul, loveliest of branches! How I have missed you!
'''Feo Ul:''' If you truly missed me, you should have cried for me at the top of your lungs the instant you arrived!
'''Feo Ul:''' To make up for it, you will call with ''twice'' the passion next time. Though for there to be a next time, you've some few struggles to overcome.
> Don't you have more important things to do, Your Majesty?

'''Feo Ul:''' So, my adorable sapling. The world is on the verge of destruction, is it?
'''Feo Ul:''' Hehe, how do I know this? Joined as we are, spying on you is as simple as sliding down the back of a rainbow.
'''Feo Ul:''' Would that I could aid you in your quest...but the fate of we fae folk is bound to that of the star. Whither it goes, so too do we follow. Such is our way.
'''Feo Ul:''' The most I could do for you is spare you the pain, by gifting you the sweetest of eternal dreams...
'''Feo Ul:''' But if escape's not to your liking, then you must struggle with your fellow mortals.
'''Feo Ul:''' Ah, but here are the ones you were waiting for. I wonder, what manner of conclusion awaits at tale's end...?

'''Lyna:''' My apologies for the delay.
'''Ryne:''' [Forename]! It's so wonderful to see you again!
'''Lyna:''' You doubtless have much catching up to do, so I shall leave you to it. I've taken the liberty of unlocking the Umbilicus, and you may enter at your leisure.

===Speak with Ryne. (Cutscene)===
'''Ryne:''' I'm relieved to hear that everyone is well.
'''Ryne:''' I've had this feeling, like a pit in my stomach, and I was afraid that something might have happened...
'''Ryne:''' Maybe I'm overthinking things, but...it's just that...
'''Ryne:''' I'm the Oracle of Light, but I've never spoken with Hydaelyn. Never once heard Her call.
'''Ryne:''' Even so, I've always had this feeling deep inside me. A connection to something immense.
'''Ryne:''' These past few days, though, that connection has...wavered. As if that immense something was distant, then close, then distant again...
'''Ryne:''' And then, the other night, I was jolted awake by the feeling it had been completely severed.
'''Ryne:''' Wanting some fresh air, I went to open the window...and to my horror, the sky was ablaze. Like during the starshower...
'''Ryne:''' But then I blinked, and everything was normal. The next day, no one said a thing. No one else had seen what I had seen.
'''Ryne:''' As far as I could tell, nothing was out of the ordinary. I began to wonder if it was a figment of a half-remembered dream...
'''Ryne:''' [Forename]...? What are you not telling me?
'''Ryne:''' I have to know ─ please! It doesn't matter how terrible it is!

'''Ryne:''' It wasn't my imagination, then. The doom we witnessed in Amaurot has come again...
'''Ryne:''' I can't believe it...
'''Ryne:''' Like I told you before, all is well here in the First.
'''Ryne:''' So don't worry about us. Please. Look only to the threat before you.
'''Ryne:''' We're fine right now, and even if we weren't, we've learned how to survive.
'''Ryne:''' Should the Final Days reach us here as well, you may be assured we won't go quietly.
'''Ryne:''' No, we'll hold on until you can find a way to save all our worlds.
'''Ryne:''' So long as you continue your fight, so too will we, united in purpose beneath a blazing sky.

==Steps==
*Search for [[Urianger]] at the designated location.
*Search for [[Urianger]] again at the designated location.
*Follow [[Urianger]].
*Speak with [[Urianger]].

==Journal==
*By now, Thancred can tell when his friends are up to something.

*Thancred suspects Urianger is keeping secrets again, and while there is no doubt your enigmatic comrade would only do so with the best of intentions, the weary bard cannot help but worry. He asks you to follow Urianger while he and Y'shtola continue to learn what they can of the Final Days.

*You reach the aetheryte in the central plaza of Bestways Burrow, and spy Urianger heading out to Mare Lamentorum. What could possibly demand his attention outside?

*Stepping out from the entrance to Bestways Burrow, you see Urianger making his ascent up and out to Mare Lamentorum. It would be a simple task to catch up with him, but it would perhaps be wiser to follow at a distance and see where he is heading.
**※You must follow Urianger to complete this task. Return to the designated location should you become separated.

*Urianger comes to an abrupt stop, and it becomes clear he has been aware of your presence for some time. The two of you have a candid conversation about Urianger's many regrets, and his aversion to keeping secrets from you and the other Scions moving forward. He then thanks you for this rare opportunity to speak so openly.

*Urianger has a plan to help facilitate more forthright cooperation with the Loporrits, but he will need your help to see it through.

==Walkthrough==
Similar strategies can be used for following Urianger as in {{questlink|main|Tracks in the Snow}}. However, he has some tricks:
*Urianger will turn around a few seconds after he passes the first purple bridge. The nearest hiding place (rock) is before the bridge. Be patient and don't follow him too closely, or you won't have enough time to hide behind a rock.
*After turning around, Urianger will begin running, so make sure not to fall behind. You can use {{action icon|Sprint}} to keep up, but it may also be good to save for later.
*The second purple bridge is similar to the first (Urianger will turn around after passing it, but the nearest hiding place is before it).
*Afterwards, Urianger will continue running to the end of the path and will no longer turn around. Using {{action icon|Sprint}} is recommended, but keep following him even if he runs off screen.

==Dialogue==
''Optional dialogue''
'''Y'shtola:''' The Final Days will make brave fools of us all.

===Accepting the quest===
'''Thancred:''' Did Urianger seem strange to you? More so than usual, I mean.
'''Thancred:''' I know he has a penchant for keeping his own counsel, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't worried. Would you go and see if he's all right?
'''Thancred:''' Y'shtola and I will remain here and see what else we can learn about the Final Days. If you hurry, perhaps you can catch up to him.

''Optional dialogue''
'''Y'shtola:''' Urianger usually puts more effort into concealing his clandestine endeavors. Or perhaps he's simply given up on trying to hide it, knowing we'll find out eventually.
'''Y'shtola:''' In any case, that he acts with good intentions is plain. So please, give him the benefit of the doubt.

'''Thancred:''' Better for only one of us to go, in case it's a delicate matter.
'''Thancred:''' Hopefully I'm overthinking things...

===Search for Urianger at the designated location. (Cutscene)===
Urianger appears to be heading towards the entrance to Bestways Burrow...

===Search for Urianger again at the designated location. (Cutscene)===
Urianger ventures off into Mare Lamentorum for reasons unknown. You must tread carefully, else he might sense your presence...

===Follow Urianger. (Cutscene/Minigame)===
<blockquote>Follow Urianger from a safe distance. The objective will end in failure if you are noticed, or if you fall too far behind.
Should you fail to complete the objective, you may try again by returning to the designated location.</blockquote>

'''Urianger:''' Thine arrival is timely as ever.
'''Urianger:''' Thou didst chance to overhear my conversation with Livingway, I presume?
'''Urianger:''' 'Twas not mine intent to move in shadow. Nevertheless, I have been asked to do that and more yet again...
'''Urianger:''' Is it so plain that these strangers could intuit it at a glance? My capacity for silence and secrecy...and duplicity.
'''Urianger:''' When G'raha Tia did contrive to deliver the First at the price of his own life, I was complicit in the scheme. A sacrifice averted, for a mercy.
'''Urianger:''' Would that I could say the same for Minfilia. One life for one world. And by that bloody bargain brokered by my hand were the Scions robbed of a dear comrade, and F'lhaminn her beloved daughter.
'''Urianger:''' Two souls whose selflessness was beyond measure, whose resolve was unshakable. They would not be moved even had I thought to protest.
'''Urianger:''' But protest I did not. Far from it. I pushed them forward.
'''Urianger:''' No effort did I make to seek out alternatives. Ones that would not demand such terrible costs.
'''Urianger:''' That resignation weigheth heavy on my mind, as does the memory of another lost to mine inaction.
'''Urianger:''' Dearest Moenbryda, who did face death unflinching, that we might secure a means to bring low the Ascians.
'''Urianger:''' In her hour of need, I did naught. Dutiful disciple of Louisoix, ever looking to the greater good...
'''Urianger:''' Had I shut mine eyes and bid her live instead, mayhap she would be with us today.
'''Urianger:''' Selfish wants born of everlasting regrets. Most days I put them from my mind, but could think of naught else when asked to swallow the same bitter draught. Subterfuge and sacrifice. Mayhap the right, moral choice, but one I regard with great trepidation.
'''Urianger:''' The calamity of Amaurot was a tragedy beyond reckoning. One which must never again come to pass.
'''Urianger:''' Thus must we struggle. Haunted by ghosts of those we have lost. Clinging to those we pray we can yet save.
'''Urianger:''' But what of those we cannot?
'''Urianger:''' How do we make peace with the dreadful algebra of necessity?

'''''What will you say?'''''
> Sometimes there's no right answer.
'''Urianger:''' I am not alone in my discomfort, then?
'''Urianger:''' 'Tis surprising... though perhaps not, We Scions are wont to debate strategy at length, but are resolute and unwavering in execution.
> Have faith in yourself and your decisions. Take heart and protect well those you can.
'''Urianger:''' Sage counsel indeed...
'''Urianger:''' I see. Wisdom as befits a great wyrm. Curious that he should think thee in need of such encouragement.
> Would that we had time to weigh the costs.
'''Urianger:''' 'Tis a comfort to know we are of like mind in that regard.

'''Urianger:''' Strange... Scarcely can I remember when last we spoke alone, and so candidly.
'''Urianger:''' I thank thee. For all my supposed skill with words, I find it difficult to express such private thoughts.
'''Urianger:''' As for the Loporrits' proposition...I will take time and consider how to respond.
'''Urianger:''' 'Twould be to our mutual benefit if we could converse more openly with our aspiring caretakers...
'''Urianger:''' ...A concern I should be glad to address on the Scions' behalf.
'''Urianger:''' To dispense with all pretense and bare one's heart to another is a frightening thing indeed. But we cannot move forward ere we take that bold first step. A lesson I have learned many times before...and today.

'''Livingway:''' What are they saying? Curse these ears ─ I've heard bugger all!
'''Livingway:''' No matter. We've got our plans.

===Speak with Urianger.===
'''Urianger:''' In truth, my reason for traveling hither was to effect a plan of mine own. A plan which may pave a way forward for us all.
'''Urianger:''' "May,“ I say, for there is no guarantee of success. 'Tis the reason I set out alone...that failure, should it come, would be mine to bear alone.
'''Urianger:''' Yet thou standest before me with proffered hand and open heart...
'''Urianger:''' 'Twould be remiss of me to refuse thy amity, and so I ask ─ wouldst thou join in mine endeavor?

==Steps==
*Speak with [[Alphinaud]].
*Speak with [[Theyler]].
*Speak with the [[Crystal Exarch]].
*Speak with the [[Manager of Suites|manager of suites]] in [[the Pendants]].

==Journal==
* Urianger presumably has some idea as to what you might usefully do while Y'shtola pursues her investigations in Anamnesis Anyder.

*You trouble Urianger for his thoughts on how you and your fellow Scions should occupy yourselves in Y'shtola's absence. After expressing confidence that her efforts will eventually bear fruit, he concludes the best course of action for the rest of you would be to wait─which, Alphinaud points out, means that you now have the opportunity to look in on the Exarch and ascertain how his efforts to perfect the spirit vessel are coming along.

* You find the Exarch not in his tower, but at the Exedra, surrounded by a crowd of overexcited citizens. It seems the words of “Ardbert” have had the intended effect, kindling such heroic zeal in the people that they are ready to leave their homes without thought to the consequences. As if to compound matters, the sky suddenly turns dark, heralding the arrival of a shower of stars─a spectacle which awakens the crowd to a voice you know very well indeed. With perfect timing, Elidibus appears, proclaiming to those who hear it that they, too, are Warriors of Light, before departing as abruptly as he came. You catch up with him a short distance away, and though he offers no clarity on the subject of his motives, he does confirm that the meteors were an illusion of his own making. With an ominous promise to save the world, he vanishes─leaving you to ponder what all of this implies about Hydaelyn's own role in the creation of Warriors of Light...including you.

* As the dust settles, you are approached by the Crystal Exarch. He informs you that two guardsmen with whom you are acquainted─the irrepressible Theyler and Vonard─have chosen to embark on a journey to become heroes in their own right, and asks that you offer them a few words of advice ere they depart.

* You find Theyler and Vonard at the Amaro Launch, where they stand at the threshold of adventure, and impart a few pearls of wisdom gathered in the course of your own travels. They listen earnestly, and as you watch them set off into the unknown, it is easy to believe that the people of the First will find their path─even after you have gone.

* Back at the Crystal Tower, having regaled the Exarch with the intrigues of your journey to Anamnesis, thoughts turn to the future. Rather than stake everything on the success of Y'shtola's investigations, Thancred proposes he use his ample experience in subterfuge to keep watch over Elidibus, and all readily agree. Urianger, meanwhile, will assist in ongoing research at the Umbilicus─for confident though Beq Lugg and the Exarch are of developing a means to transfer memory into spirit vessels, a great deal of experimentation yet remains. Needful tasks thus assigned, the Exarch suggests you take the opportunity to rest─a statement rife with irony, perhaps, given its source, but one not lacking in wisdom.

* You retire to your suite in the Pendants, but are awoken in the evening by an unexpected tapping at your chamber door. It is Glynard, accompanied by a familiar figure come to offer words of encouragement─and why not? Be it by Cardinal Virtue or shrouded Ascian, the twisting of good men to vile ends is not to be borne.

==Dialogue==

'''Urianger:''' Can we but uncover Elidibus's true origins, we may yet come to understand his designs. To that end, Y'shtola must needs be afforded as much time as she doth require to complete her investigation.
'''Urianger:''' ...To the extent that such things are within our control, yes. Speaking of which, perhaps we might trouble the Exarch for news of his progress with the spirit vessel?
'''Urianger:''' He will no doubt wish to hear of our own discoveries as well, such as they are.

====Cutscene dialogue====
'''Alphinaud:''' Dare I ask what's going on?
'''Crystal Exarch:''' Ah, excellent timing. For me, in any case. We have a problem.
'''Crystal Exarch:''' The vast majority of those gathered here are presently in the employ of the guard or else one of the facets...and no longer wish to be so.
'''Crystal Exarch:''' In principle, all are free to change vocation at any time─but a city does require a certain number of people in these positions if it is to continue to function. For the moment, I have asked them to postpone their resignation until such time as replacements can be found.
'''Crystal Exarch:''' As you may have surmised, we have the “Warrior of Light” to thank for this... 
'''Vonard:''' It's you! The Warrior of Darkness!
'''Vonard:''' You understand, don't you?
'''Vonard:''' Someone's going to have to look after this place once you're gone. We just want to be ready to do our bit when the time comes.
'''Theyler:''' And not only here, but everywhere! Which is why we've got to get out there, and lend a hand to those in need.
'''Theyler:''' That's what you did, isn't it? Even if it was just little things, at the start. You helped people. 
'''''What will you say?'''''
> People, chocobos, you name it.
'''> Well, yes... '''
> ... 
'''Theyler:''' And we're trying to do the same! We may have our sky back, but there's no shortage of people who still need help.
'''Theyler:''' If we follow in your footsteps, then I choose to believe we too can be heroes one day. Even Warriors of Light. 
'''Alphinaud:''' What are we to say to that? We can hardly tell them they are mistaken.
'''Alphinaud:''' They seek but to do good, as you have.
'''Urianger:''' But no more can we stand idly by and suffer a Paragon's scheme to proceed unchallenged.

'''Fearful Citizen:''' What...what's happening to the sky?
''Wicked white!''
''Oh no!''

'''Alphinaud:''' By the Twelve...
'''Urianger:''' A starshower...
'''Theyler:''' I─ I hear a voice!
'''Vonard:''' You and all? Then why does it feel like it's inside my head!?
'''Vonard:''' Hear... Feel... Think...?
''I hear it!''
''Me too!''

'''???:''' Did I not tell you, my friends!? You are Warriors of Light!
'''Theyler:''' You're back!
'''Elidibus:''' What you hear is the voice of Light itself, and it has blessed you with its power. Welcome to the fold!
'''Theyler:''' I'm a Warrior of Light...
'''Vonard:''' I've been chosen!?
''Me, a hero?''

'''Alphinaud:''' Wait!
'''Alphinaud:''' The falling stars ─ were they your doing? And why do you need Warriors of Light?
'''Elidibus:''' What, am I to reveal my plans simply because you asked?
'''Elidibus:''' Nay, I think not─though the stars I acknowledge mine. A convenient illusion apt to awaken what little is left of the power that once resided in your sundered souls.
'''Elidibus:''' That which you and yours call the Echo.
'''Elidibus:''' And an echo it is. Of a symphony. But a fraction of what men, in their completeness, once possessed.
'''Elidibus:''' Even those among you who tower over others in the gift have only the faintest trace of it.
'''Elidibus:''' But though sundered and forgotten, through death and mocking rebirth, it has persisted. A whisper of our past, burned into your very aether ─ along with the sight of our end.
'''Elidibus:''' Through the rekindling of memory, I have awoken the ability ─ just as Hydaelyn is wont to do when She has need of new minions.
'''Urianger:''' The Echo hath ever been thought a gift from Hydaelyn ─ a boon granted solely to Her chosen. Yet thou wouldst claim She merely awakeneth the power, that men should hearken unto...?
'''Urianger:''' ...Her voice. Given the perceived simultaneity of Her call and the awakening of Her chosen's capacity to hear it, 'tis only natural that we thus attributed the source of the gift. Yet if, in truth, the Echo is a prerequisite for hearing Her voice...
'''Urianger:''' One might surmise that Her call never ceaseth, such that all who awaken to their innate gift might receive of the blessing of Light at the selfsame instant.
'''Urianger:''' In sooth, we bore witness to this but moments ago. At the sight of the starshower, full many in the crowd did speak of hearing a voice in their minds, did they not?
'''Elidibus:''' Just so. And whenever Hydaelyn has need of new servants, She is quick to pluck comets from the heavens, or create illusions of the same.
'''Urianger:''' Why, then, didst thou conjure this vision, full knowing that thine age-old foe would thus claim those awakened to the gift?
'''Elidibus:''' “Foe”? You must be mistaken. As you see, I am a Warrior of Light.
'''Elidibus:''' And together with my comrades-in-arms, I shall save the world. Just like you.

====Optional Dialogue====
'''Ryne:''' It did remind me of it... Amaurot, I mean. All the fear, and the sadness...

'''Thancred:''' Unsettling though this is, I'm certain our friends in the guard will use the Echo well.
...Or with good intentions, at least.

'''Urianger:''' Though I like not what it portendeth, having been treated to so ''unambiguous'' a demonstration, I cannot well conclude aught but that starshowers are indeed instrumental in awakening the Echo.
'''Urianger:''' Yet we need not attribute such credence to all that Elidibus hath claimed. That he too seeketh this star's salvation, for one...

'''Alisaie:''' And there he goes again... Though I don't suppose he would have given us an honest answer about his history had he stayed.

===Speak with Alphinaud.===
'''Alphinaud:''' The more Elidibus reveals, the less I understand. But that he has made a fine mess of things is plain.

'''Crystal Exarch:''' He is gone, then?
'''Crystal Exarch:''' I've managed to persuade a number of our would-be deserters to reconsider, or at least delay, their departure. But as many are deaf to my entreaties.
'''Crystal Exarch:''' Young Theyler and Vonard among them, I am sorry to say. They have quit the guard.
'''Crystal Exarch:''' Nevertheless, I wish them well. Whatever Elidibus's plans for them might be, the pair have only ever had the best of intentions.
'''Thancred:''' One can hardly blame them for thinking themselves heroes elect ─ not after having been “blessed” with the Echo. And it's not as if they haven't shown the requisite spirit.
'''Crystal Exarch:''' I quite agree. Though the impetus for their sudden departure may have been words falsely spoken, the men and women in whose footsteps they would follow are heroes in truth. Warriors of Light. Ardbert. Yourself, most of all.
'''Crystal Exarch:''' And so I would ask a favor of you─speak with them ere they embark on their journey, and furnish them with what wisdom you can. They've set off for the Amaro Launch, but you should still be able to catch them if you leave now.
'''Thancred:''' Worth the effort, I'd say. If I recall correctly, the Elder Seedseer took the time to usher you out into the wider world, many moons ago.
'''Alphinaud:''' I...think that comparison rather flatters Theyler and Vonard. But the point still stands. They would doubtless be greatly encouraged were the Warrior of Darkness himself to see them off.
'''Urianger:''' If thou art willing, I prithee go. Thou mayest safely leave the task of unfolding that which did transpire at Anamnesis to us.

====Optional Dialogue, in the Ocular====
'''Urianger:''' In days to come, when Elidibus's machinations have all come to naught, the First shall be stronger for its people's readiness to rise to the challenges of their time. We have but to defeat our foe to make it so.

'''Beq Lugg:''' I was so deeply immersed in my research that I entirely failed to notice the starshower... Bugger.

'''Crystal Exarch:''' You will need to leave now if you are to catch them before they depart. They are...eager to be on their way.

'''Alisaie:''' Honestly, don't listen to all this prattle about the life-changing importance of your words to impressionable young heroes. You could nod mutely in their general direction and they'd still be inspired.

'''Alphinaud:''' I daresay I needn't wax poetical on the value of well-placed words of encouragement to you of all people. I have gained ''that'' much self-awareness in our time together...

'''Ryne:''' “This land is our home...and it is we who must protect it...” Even if he didn't believe a word he was saying, and it's all part of some terrible scheme, it's hard not to take his message to heart.

''(Thancred dialog is different here depending which city-state the WoL started in...)

''(If WoL was birthed in Gridania, and thus completed {{questlink|main|The Gridanian Envoy}})''
'''Thancred:''' You caused quite a stir when you set forth as the Elder Seedseer's newly anointed envoy, you know.
'''Thancred:''' Minfilia was delighted. “The world is ever in need of heroes,” she said...

''(If WoL was birthed in Limsa Lominsa, and thus completed {{questlink|main|The Lominsan Envoy}})''
???

''(If WoL was birthed in Ul'dah, and thus completed {{questlink|main|The Ul'dahn Envoy}})''
???

===Speak with Theyler.===
''Optional dialogue''
'''Vonard:''' ...“Where in Amh Araeng”? I mean... You know... Around.

'''Theyler:''' You again!? Uh, I mean─it's you, sir! Sorry...it's been a funny old day.

'''Theyler:''' You can be sure we'll take those words to heart.
'''Vonard:''' I still can't believe it ─ you coming all this way just to speak to us.
'''Vonard:''' I swear we won't let you down. So long as it helps someone, we'll do what needs doing out there─no matter how small!
'''Theyler:''' And when larger threats loom, we'll be ready to face them. You see if we aren't. 
'''''What will you say?'''''
'''> The path shall ever be revealed to those who are true of heart.'''
>...Well, what are you waiting for? Get out there! 
'''Theyler:''' We'll be off, then. Farewell, Warrior of Darkness ─ and thank you.

====Optional Dialogue, in The Ocular (some of the dialog is different from before speaking to Theyler)====
'''Urianger:''' Thou art returned! And at a most opportune time. We have but this moment concluded our account of all that came to pass in the deep.

'''Alisaie:''' Honestly, don't listen to all this prattle about the life-changing importance of your words to impressionable young heroes. You could nod mutely in their general direction and they'd still be inspired.

'''Alphinaud:''' I take it they were suitably inspired?

===Speak with Crystal Exarch.===
'''Crystal Exarch:''' Thank you for making the effort. I'm certain your words will be a boon to them.
'''Crystal Exarch:''' While you were away, the others told me of your investigation. We have yet to discuss how to proceed, however.

'''Crystal Exarch:''' While your findings in Anamnesis Anyder do raise important questions as to the identity of our adversary, we are no closer to discerning his design. Nor do I know of any other potential avenue of investigation.
'''Urianger:''' For which reason, we must needs trust to Y'shtola's ingenuity, and wait for her efforts to revive the ancients' device to bear fruit.
'''Thancred:''' ...What if I were to attempt to follow the emissary? Elusive as he is, his plan compels him to court public attention. He shouldn't be impossible to find.
'''Alphinaud:''' Especially for one of your experience. It does seem worth the attempt.
'''Ryne:''' Then I'll come with you. Safety in numbers.
'''Thancred:''' In combat, perhaps ─ but where stealth is required, the opposite is true. Happily, I don't plan on getting myself caught, so you've no need to worry.
'''Thancred:''' Nor do I intend to vanish for moons on end. We still have the Empty to attend to, don't we?
'''Ryne:''' All right. Then I look forward to your return.

'''Alisaie:''' Then it sounds like the rest of us should avoid doing anything which might prompt Elidibus to look too closely at our movements. Insofar as it's possible, I recommend we limit our activities to the Crystarium.
'''Alphinaud:''' Speaking of which ─ Exarch, might I ask if you've made any progress with the spirit vessel?
'''Crystal Exarch:''' Of course. We are presently studying the principles underpinning memory transference and, I believe, nearing the requisite level of understanding.
'''Crystal Exarch:''' Less hearteningly, practical trials of transference methods suited for use with the vessel have yet to yield satisfactory results...to put it mildly.
'''Beq Lugg:''' But there are still many promising possibilities we have yet to test!
'''Crystal Exarch:''' Indeed. Though it may take some time yet, we are well on our way to a solution.
'''Crystal Exarch:''' And I shall not rest until one is found.
'''Urianger:''' Though we are all grateful for thine unstinting efforts, thou need'st not labor to the exclusion of all else. If it would serve to lighten thy burden, however little, I should gladly offer mine assistance.
'''Alphinaud:''' Quite. I, for my part, will do what I can to ensure that the Crystarium continues to run smoothly, in spite of recent disruptions.
'''Ryne:''' Then perhaps I could help? There must be something I can do, even if it's just guard duty.
'''Crystal Exarch:''' Thank you... All of you. I shall breathe easier for your assistance.
'''Crystal Exarch:''' Of course, on the evidence of the recent past, it will not be long before some new crisis arrives to throw our plans into disarray ─ at which time ''your'' services will be in particular demand. That being the case, perhaps you might take this opportunity to retire to your suite at the Pendants?

====Optional dialogue====
'''Crystal Exarch:''' One of these methods will work. It must.
'''Crystal Exarch:''' ...Of ''course'' I don't wish to worry Lyna─she has more than enough to worry about already. But I swore that I would return you all home.
'''Crystal Exarch:''' All right! ''Fine''. I will henceforth endeavor to take breaks when appropriate.
...While Lyna is watching.

'''Beq Lugg:''' Never fear ─ I too will continue to assist the Exarch to the best of my ability. And if that means casting the odd sleeping charm, ''so be it''.

'''Urianger:''' Knowing not whether Elidibus or our ever-waning connection to the Source representeth the more pressing problem, we must needs attend to both...and risk solving neither.

'''Thancred:''' There is sure to be no shortage of potential heroes upon whose good nature Elidibus will try to prevail. The trick will be in anticipating which settlement he'll direct his attentions toward next...

'''Ryne:''' There's so much to be done, and so little I can do to help... But you can count on me to play my part in the Empty.

'''Alphinaud:''' Ought we to inform the citizens that the starshower was an illusion, do you think? They might sleep better for the knowledge that no damage was done.

'''Alisaie:''' ''I'' will accompany my brother, and make sure he doesn't get carried away. ''You'' will do as you're told, and get some rest ─ ''both of you''.
''(Alisaie glancing over and referring to Crystal Exarch)''
'''Alisaie:''' Honestly, he's a danger to himself. If I were Lyna, I think I would've hit him over the head with a blunt object by now. At least then he'd lie down.

===Speak with the manager of suites in the Pendants.===
'''Manager of Suites:''' A pleasure as always, Master [Surname].
'''Manager of Suites:''' I am relieved to see you were unharmed in the earlier commotion. Though, if I may ─ you do look somewhat weary. I presume you will be retiring to your suite?
'''Manager of Suites:''' Very good. Do let me know if there is anything you require.

====Cutscene dialogue====
'''Glynard:''' Master [Surname]? It's Glynard ─ from the Wandering Stairs. I apologize for calling so late.
'''Glynard:''' A friend of yours was asking after you. You may remember them from that business with the Cardinal Virtues...

''(Who appears here depends on which Shadowbringers Role Quest have been completed.)''
''(If WoL has completed two or more (or all of them), a dialog choice menu will appear, "What will you say?")''

'''< What will you say?>'''
'''< Granson >'''
'''< Giott. >'''
'''< Lue-Reeq. >'''
'''< Taynor. >'''

'''''< Granson >'''''
'''Granson:''' Well met, sinner.
'''Granson:''' I was looking forward to a welcome respite here in the Crystarium, but the mood here's not exactly conducive to relaxation, as I'm sure you've noticed.
'''Granson:''' Aye, I'd wager you know more about what's going on than anyone else in this city. Care to share?
'''Granson:''' Hmmm... I can't say that I envy you your prey.
'''Granson:''' Dark work, this twisting of the Warriors of Light's legacy. Reminds me of what became of ol' Dikaiosyne─though this “Ascian” of yours is a fair bit more chatty.
'''Granson:''' I'm tempted to silence him myself. Branden made his mistakes─I'm sure they all did─but the past is the past. They've earned their rest.
'''< What will you say?>'''
'''< I'm not about to let him sully Ardbert's good name. >'''
''''''
'''Granson:''' What, you want me to leave it to you?
'''Granson:''' ...Right, right. I'm not the only one carrying all that weight. Very well. But only because you asked.
'''Granson:''' Remember: if you ever need me, just say the word. I'll be there.

'''''< Giott. >'''''
'''Giott:''' Lali-ho, strangers!
'''Giott:''' So there I am—minding my own business, quaffing my ale—when I hear a ruckus outside. And then, clear as day: "Warrior of Light"!
'''Giott:''' That sounded like trouble to me, and I knew that if anyone was going to trouble himself/herself over that trouble, it'd be you. So I gave Glynard the ol' "But I'm your best customer!" routine until he agree to bring me here, and now I know where you live! Great, ain't it?
'''Giott:''' Some bastard's walking around wearing Ardbert—''Lamitt's'' Ardbert—like a secondhand jerkin!?
'''Giott:''' I don't know what's more offensive—that, or that you let him leave without a proper dwarven decking!
'''< What will you say?>'''
'''< He ''did'' vanish into thin air. >'''
'''< A certain hobson refused to teach me... >'''
'''Giott:''' Bah! In a pinch, an improvised decking would've been fine!
'''Giott:''' Tell you what. I'll show you how to know that bastard flat in the blink of an eye here and now. Taboos be damned.
'''Giott:''' After all, we ain't about to let him keep on like that, are we? Pretending to be Ardbert. ''Lamitt's'' Ardbert.
'''Giott:''' Step one: make a fist. Step two: extend your arm, like so. Step three: beat 'em senseless. Got it?
'''Giott:''' Good. Now make me proud!

'''''< Lue-Reeq. >'''''
'''Lue-Reeq:''' What charming accomodations!
'''Lue-Reeq:''' I had come to dine at the Wandering Stairs, you see, when I spied a considerable gathering of locals. Then the sky caught fire, and, well...
'''Lue-Reeq:''' You must know what it all means. Anything you'd care to share with a friend?
'''Lue-Reeq:''' That is...alarming, to say the least.
'''Lue-Reeq:''' It's all well and good that others have come to appreciate the Warriors of Light, but we cannot allow this charlatan to exploit their legacy. So...
'''Lue-Reeq:''' Yes! Why not? We shall reform the indomitable duo that is Reeq and [forename], and put an end to his shenanigans! 
'''''What will you say?'''''
> That's very kind of you.
'''> Eager as ever, I see.''' 
'''Lue-Reeq:''' Yes, I know. No need to say it. You've no intention of involving me. I'm stupid, but I'm not naive.
'''Lue-Reeq:''' You're the better hunter, and the better person besides. I'm reminded of Renda-Rae...though that's hardly a surprise, is it?
'''Lue-Reeq:''' For her sake─for all of theirs─show this pretender what it truly means to be a hero!

'''''< Taynor. >'''''
???

''Meanwhile, in the Crystal Tower Umbilicus...''
'''Crystal Exarch:''' Foiled again...
'''Crystal Exarch:''' If I cannot imbue the infernal thing with my power via magical means, we may need to devise a way to infuse the vessel with my blood after all...
'''Urianger:''' Art thou unwell?
'''Beq Lugg:''' Perhaps a brief respite? It wouldn't do to overtax yourself.
'''Crystal Exarch:''' I'm fine...
'''Crystal Exarch:''' And given to stubbornness, I'm afraid. Especially when I have a stake in the outcome.

''Meanwhile, in the Source...''
'''Zenos yae Galvus:''' That dream again...
'''White-robed Figure:''' A recurring dream? They do so fascinate me. Might I trouble you for the details?
'''Zenos yae Galvus:''' I have always dreamed of it... Fire falling from the heavens, and the city─nay, the whole world ablaze.
'''White-robed Figure:''' Indeed... Could Emet-Selch have found a way...? Precious few possess memories of the Final Days.
'''Zenos yae Galvus:''' The Final Days?
'''White-robed Figure:''' Why yes. Admittedly, my knowledge is mostly secondhand, but if you are interested, I will gladly tell you the tale...
'''White-robed Figure:''' The tale of the world's end.

==Walkthrough==
The answers to the [[Doma]]n's questions are as follows.
*[[Homei]]: "Anything for his back should do."
*[[Doware]]: "[[Aelina]]? I thought she dealt in [[primal]] arms and whatnot."
*[[Higiri]]: "Oh, you must mean Ruby."
*[[Hozan]]: "Maybe just try to stay in touch?"

==Steps==
*Deliver [[Hien's Missive|Hien's missive]] to [[Slafborn]] in [[Revenant's Toll]].
*Speak with [[Hozan]].
*Wait for [[Doma]]ns to seek your counsel.

==Journal==
*While visiting the [[Doman Enclave|enclave]] one day you meet with [[Kozakura]], a senior official of the [[Shazenkai]], who tells you of her organization's purpose: to facilitate the reconstruction and revitalization of the settlement. To aid them in their endeavor, she and Lord [[Hien]] would have you journey to [[Revenant's Toll]], refuge for the [[Doma]]ns in [[Eorzea]], and bid them return to their homeland. Of course, this matter must also be discussed with [[Slafborn]] of the [[Adventurers' Guild]].

*As they have come to view the Domans as family, the people of Revenant's Toll will be sad to see them go. Nevertheless, this is a happy occasion, and Slafborn is eager to do everything in his power to see them on their way. Moreover, he states that he will encourage the Eorzean frontier hands to accompany the Domans to [[Yanxia]], that they might assist their [[Othard|Far Eastern]] comrades in the reconstruction.

*[[Hozan]] and his Doman brethren are overjoyed to hear that they may return to their homeland at last. However, this happiness soon gives way to apprehension, for they dare not leave without properly repaying the kindness of the many Eorzeans to whom they owe so much. Seeing this, Hozan declares that he will ensure that they have sufficient time to put their personal and professional affairs in order. In the meantime, he asks that you assist them with their final preparations by making yourself available should he or any other Domans require a consultation.

*The questions the Domans put to you are many and varied, but you answer them to the best of your ability, and their affairs are resolved accordingly. Progress has been made, to be sure, but there is much and more left to be done...

==Dialogue==
===Accepting the Quest (Cutscene)===
'''Kozakura:''' Oh, [Forename]! It is a rare honor indeed to receive heroes such as you.
'''Kozakura:''' Pray allow me to introduce myself. My name is Kozakura, and I manage the accounts of the Shazenkai.
'''Kozakura:''' Oh, but you must be unfamiliar with our organization! Forgive me, forgive me. At present, we are largely concerned with facilitating the reconstruction and revitalization of the enclave.
'''Kozakura:''' Needless to say, we have our work cut out for us! It's quite fortuitous actually, you being here. I had mind to petition your assistance—
'''Kozakura:''' Ah, right you are, it's rather difficult to converse while staring at one's feet. And you would doubtless benefit from an explanation.
'''Kozakura:''' As you may know, the enclave was once the economic and cultural center of Doma. Alas, it suffered terrible devastation at the hands of the Empire both during and following the failed rebellion of yesteryear.
'''Kozakura:''' That it and other ruins might stand as testament to the folly of resistance, extensive reconstruction was forbidden by the imperial viceroy. Of course, that is no longer a concern.
'''Kozakura:''' At long last, we are free to rebuild the enclave—to restore the heart of our once great nation and show the world that Doma lives on!
'''Kozakura:''' But as I said before, we have our work cut out for us. We have limited funds and material resources, not to mention a lack of skilled craftsmen...
'''Kozakura:''' Which brings me back to the matter I wished to discuss with you: that of our brothers and sisters in Eorzea—the refugees that settled in Revenant's Toll.
'''Kozakura:''' I am given to understand that they have worked closely with the local leadership to build and maintain much of the settlement. Many knew trades before they left, and those that did not doubtless learned that they might earn their keep.
'''Kozakura:''' If they were to return home and aid us in the reconstruction effort, it would be a tremendous boon. Would you be willing to speak with them on our behalf?

====If doing this quest before Storm on the Horizon====
'''Hien:''' Decided to look in on the Shazenkai first, [Forename]?

====If not====
'''Hien:''' Ah, [Forename]. Taken an interest in the Shazenkai?

'''(Both)'''
'''Hien:''' Well, this seems as good a time as any to discuss the matter.
'''Hien:''' I am grateful beyond measure to you and the Scions of the Seventh Dawn for welcoming Yugiri and my people in their hour of need.
'''Hien:''' As the beneficiaries of this kindness, they have made every effort to repay you and the people of Revenant's Toll. Nevertheless, we here bear a responsibility as well.
'''Hien:''' Kozakura, if you would be so kind.

'''Kozakura:''' Yes, my lord!

'''Hien:''' We will send them a considerable gift as a gesture of gratitude and goodwill. However, I would like that missive to be delivered to the Adventurers' Guild representative in advance.
'''Hien:''' If you were to personally hand it to the man, I would be honored.
'''Hien:''' Excellent! I knew I could count on you, my friend.
'''Hien:''' Pardon my interruption, Kozakura. I look forward to seeing your progress.

'''Kozakura:''' Oh dear... I hope we don't disappoint him...
Anyway, I'll not keep you. Thank you again for the assistance, and safe travels!
'''(Optional)'''
'''Kozakura:''' Lord Hien's request takes precedence, of course, but perhaps you can use it as an opportunity to broach the subject of the refugees' return?

===Delivering Hien's missive to Slafborn in Revenant's Toll===
'''Slafborn:''' What's that, [Forename]? Business concerning the Domans?
'''''<Hand Over Hien's Missive>'''''
'''Slafborn:''' I see, I see... Lord Hien really needn't have gone to such trouble, but I know all too well how much our Far Eastern friends worry themselves over decorum.
'''Slafborn:''' As for the matter of the refugees' repatriation, I'll not lie. We've come to view them as family, and we'll be sorry to see them go—many of the other fellow frontier hands especially...
'''Slafborn:''' So let us do you one better: I shall appeal to their Eorzean comrades and invite them to accompany the Domans on their journey, that they too might aid in the reconstruction of the enclave. I expect many will jump at the opportunity!
'''Slafborn:''' A costly thing to send so many people, to be sure, but owing to Lord Hien's generosity, we seem to have found ourselves with a surplus of funding.
'''Slafborn:''' It's hard to imagine the Toll without the Doman refugees. They helped make it what it is today...
'''Slafborn:''' Ba—what am I saying? This is a happy occasion! Go and tell Hozan the news! I'm sure he'll be overjoyed.
'''(Optional)'''
'''Slafborn:''' Hozan should be working outside the House. The sooner you tell him the better. They've no shortage of preparation to see to!

====Optional====
'''Doman Watch:''' No matter where I look, all I see is stone. I fear the grains we brought with us will not grow here...

'''Higiri:''' Oh, [Forename], what a pleasant surprise! Whatever business brings you here, I pray it will keep you a while. Do make yourself comfortable.

'''Doware:''' Revenant's Toll has grown tremendously. As we move forward, instead of breaking new ground, perhaps it is time to focus on refining that which already stands.

'''Homei:''' I appreciate the young ones' concern, but as Isildaure has taught me, age is but a barrier in one's mind. These old bones can still put in a good day's work, and the spirit is amply willing besides!

===Speaking with Hozan===
'''Hozan:''' How very good to see you, my friend -- though not at all expected. You look as though you have something important to say. Do you?
'''Hozan:''' I... I know not what to say! Return to Doma? Has the day truly come at last?
'''Hozan:''' Wait here while I summon the others. This concerns them all...
====Cutscene====
'''Hozan:''' My word! And they are already making arrangements for our return?
'''Hozan:''' Why the long face, Higiri? This is cause for celebration!

'''Higiri:''' ...It is, aye. Like all of you, I have dreamed of this day since the moment we left Yanxia...
'''Higiri:''' But now that it has arrived, I cannot help but think of those to whom we owe so much. Slafborn especially...

'''Doware:''' Indeed. Even if it were possible to leave this very moment, I could not. Not until I thanked the people here for everything they have done for us.
'''Doware:''' I remember when we first arrived in this land and learned of its troubles. Though disappointed, I understood why no one would grant us shelter. Who were we? Why risk so much for strangers?
'''Doware:''' But this place and these people were different. When all others turned us away, Revenant's Toll welcomed us with open arms.
'''Doware:''' I love Doma and Lord Hien with all my heart and want nothing more than to return and help rebuild. But I implore you, Hozan—we must first do our utmost to repay their boundless kindness!

'''Hozan:''' Never did I intend to for us to disappear into the night like thieves and vagabonds. Everything you have said is right and true.
'''Hozan:''' All labors we have undertaken will be seen to a measure of completion. That much goes without saying, I am sure.
'''Hozan:''' I will speak with Slafborn and ensure that we have enough days to prepare for our journey. In the meantime, I would encourage you all to prepare gifts and so forth.

'''Homei:''' Very good, very good! It would not do to leave without saying proper farewells, else we would labor under a cloud of regret.
'''Homei:''' At my age, one appreciates every opportunity to put their affairs in order. After all, I may not weather the journey home, much less another one to Eorzea!

'''Hozan:''' Hah! Given your constitution, Father, I should not be surprised if you bury us all.
'''Hozan:''' Hmm... If you have no pressing obligations, [Forename], might I impose upon you to assist us with our final preparations?
'''Hozan:''' Since this is all quite sudden, many of our people may require a second opinion on a farewell gift or something else. All I ask is that you make yourself available for any such consultations. Would that be all right?
'''Hozan:''' Thank you, my friend. We will look for you near the northern gate.
'''Hozan:''' Quickly now, everyone! Let us not keep [Forename] waiting!

===Waiting for Domans to seek your counsel ===
'''System:''' Assisting the Doman refugees with their final preparations will take several minutes. You may wish to cancel any pending Duty Finder registrations.

====Cutscene====
'''Homei:''' So kind of you to spare the time to help us with something so trivial! No doubt you have many other important matters to attend to...
'''Homei:''' Anyway, I wanted to ask your opinion on a gift I wished to give a dear friend of mine before leaving—Isildaure.
'''Homei:''' You remember Isildaure, do you not? Alianne's grandfather? Though older than me, the two of them were still going on grand adventures before they joined the Scions. Ah, how I envy his vigor.
'''Homei:''' Though we have done little more than drink tea and speak of our children, I have cherished his company. I will miss him, truly...
'''Homei:''' Alas, in recent days his body has begun to get the better of him, and so I was thinking of giving him something for his health. Do you have any suggestions?

'''< What will you say? >'''
'''< Eye drops, perhaps? >'''
'''< A tonic for his memory? >'''
'''< Anything for his back should do. >'''

{| class="wikitable"
| Eye drops, perhaps? || '''Homei:''' Oh? Isildaure's eyesight is failing him? He never said anything about that...though you have known him longer than me, I suppose. '''Homei:''' Very well, I shall speak with one of the merchants and purchase some eye drops. My thanks to you...
|-
| A tonic for his memory? || '''Homei:''' Isildaure? Forgetful? Are you certain? His memory has been nothing short of impeccable in my experience, but perhaps you know something I do not... '''Homei:''' Very well, I shall speak with one of the merchants and see if one has a suitable tonic. My thanks to you...
|-
| Anything for his back should do. || '''Homei:''' Hahaha! I thought so too, but I am glad to see you agree. I swear, not a day goes by without him complaining about his back. '''Homei:''' It is a great comfort, knowing that the Scions are well aware of their comrades' conditions. It shows how much you care for one another. '''Homei''': Now then—I must procure the ingredients for my home remedy. My thanks to you!
|}
{| class="wikitable"
| Correct Answer || '''System:''' Homei departs in high spirits, satisfied with your suggestion!
|-
| Incorrect Answers || '''System:''' Though Homei accepts your suggestion, his furrowed brow suggests he is not altogether confident it will suffice...
|}

'''Doware:''' My friend, if you could spare a moment of your time...
'''Doware:''' The Toll is home to many interests to which we owe a great deal, but there is one in particular to which we should definitely pay respects: Rowena's House of Splendors.
'''Doware:''' The House has been an invaluable source of goods and services, in both professional and personal matters. I am sure you too can say the same.
'''Doware:''' And so I thought to bid farewell to the... one representative with whom I have worked most closely. If you would, uh, look to the counter by the gate...
'''Doware:''' I speak of the raven haired beauty by the gate. Of all Rowena's girls, she has been... she has been very helpful.
'''Doware:''' There is a problem, however. I cannot for the life of me remember her name! They all sound so similar. Perhaps it is my Doman ear...
'''Doware:''' But you know her name, surely? Please, tell me, that I might have a proper conversation with her before I return to my homeland.

'''< What will you say? >'''
'''< Aelina? I thought she dealt in primal arms and whatnot. >'''
'''< Auriana? I didn't know you collected tomestones. >'''
'''< Laraina? Since when did you collect ritual tools? >'''
'''< G'jusana? So you're interested in the Zodiac Braves? >'''
'''< Papana? Oh, so you're ''really'' interested in the Zodiac Braves? >'''

{| class="wikitable"
| Aelina? I thought she dealt in primal arms and whatnot. || '''Doware:''' Aelina! That's it! I remembered as soon as you said it. '''Doware:''' I knew I was right to ask you. They say you're perhaps the House's most valued customer! Anyway, I had best go and speak with her before I forget again!
|-
| Auriana? I didn't know you collected tomestones. Laraina? Since when did you collect ritual tools? G'jusana? So you're interested in the Zodiac Braves? Papana? Oh, so you're ''really'' interested in the Zodiac Braves? || '''Doware:''' Hmm... Are you certain? I've heard that name before, but I could have sworn that was someone else... '''Doware:''' Oh, who am I kidding. You of all people should know! Anyway, I had best go and speak with her before I forget again!
|}
{| class="wikitable"
| Correct Answer || '''System:''' Doware departs in high spirits, grateful for your assistance!
|-
| Incorrect Answers || '''System:''' Though Doware departs in high spirits, you cannot help but wonder if you have him the wrong name...and how poorly he will be received if that is the case...
|}

'''Higiri:''' [Forename]! Have you seen a carbuncle roaming about?
'''Higiri:''' Over the course of my time here in Revenant's Toll, I've come to know many adventurers, including an arcanist with a somewhat disobedient companion.
'''Higiri:''' It seems every day her carbuncle wanders off on its own, you see, and today is no exception...
'''Higiri:''' For a mercy, it will respond to its name—more earnestly when called by someone other than its owner, strangely enough. The problem is, I cannot seem to recall what it was. Some sort of gemstone, I think?

'''< What will you say? >'''
'''< Emerald. Definitely Emerald. >'''
'''< Oh, you must mean Ruby. >'''
'''< I'd wager it's Topaz. >'''
'''< If it's not Obsidian, it should be. >'''

{| class="wikitable"
| Emerald. Definitely Emerald.|| '''Higiri:''' How silly of me! It was an Emerald Carbuncle, was it not? Of course she would name it that!
|-
| Oh, you must mean Ruby. || '''Higiri:''' Ruby! How could I forget? She named it for the red jewel in its forehead!
|-
| I'd wager it's Topaz. || '''Higiri:''' Hmm...was it Topaz? The Carbuncle itself was more of an emerald, as I recall...but perhaps she had her reasons for naming it something nonsensical. I will trust in you.
|-
| If it's not Obsidian, it should be.|| '''Higiri:''' Obsidian! Now I know I have heard that name before! Yes, that must surely be it!
|}

'''Higiri:''' Thank you for your help, [Forename]! I will join her in the search right away!
{| class="wikitable"
| Correct Answer || '''System:''' Higiri departs in high spirits and begins calling out for "Ruby" at once. Sure enough, the errant carbuncle soon appears!
|-
| Incorrect Answers || '''System:''' Higiri departs in high spirits and begins calling out for "Emerald / Topaz / Obsidian" at once. Alas, no errant Carbuncle is forthcoming...
|}

'''Hozan:''' How fortunate I am that you are still here! My father told me how you helped him, and I was hoping you might do the same for me.
'''Hozan:''' I seek your wisdom concerning Slafborn of the Adventurers' Guild, who helped secure us a place here in Revenant's Toll.
'''Hozan:''' Thanks to him, we were able to work side by side with the frontier hands to build these walls and lay these cobblestones. We were given food and shelter, it is true, but more importantly, we were given purpose.
'''Hozan:''' We have of course already expressed our gratitude to him many times before. I myself presented Slafborn with a Doman dagger, which I am told he treasures...
'''Hozan:''' But now that we must part ways, I feel as though we must make one final grand gesture—a more elaborate, expensive gift, perhaps, or... Well, what do you think?

'''< What will you say? >'''
'''< Something flashy and gaudy that's got bells on. >'''
'''< Maybe just try to stay in touch? >'''

{| class="wikitable"
| Something flashy and gaudy that's got bells on. || '''Hozan:''' B-Bells...? Far be it from me to presume, but I did not take Slafborn for a man who delights in such things...but perhaps you are right. '''Hozan:''' Given our limited resources it may be difficult to purchase something satisfactory, but we will do what we can. My thanks for your candor. '''System:''' Though Hozan accepts your suggestion, his furrowed brow suggests he is not altogether confident it will suffice...
|-
| Maybe just try to stay in touch? || '''Hozan:''' Really? We should be glad to maintain our relationship with Slafborn and the Toll, but do you truly believe that in of itself is enough? '''Hozan:''' Hmm... Perhaps you have the right of it. Considering the lengths he has gone to to ease our burdens, spending exorbitant sums on farewell gifts may only frustrate him. '''Hozan:''' Besides, whatever we purchased would come from the Eorzean markets. Better to wait until we have returned to our homeland that we might send them something more Doman. Dried persimmons from my village, perhaps? '''System:''' Hozan's eyes sparkle as he considers the possibilities, clearly satisfied with your suggestion!
|}

'''Hozan:''' How go your efforts, brothers and sisters?

{| class="wikitable"
| No incorrect answers || '''Hozan:''' By all accounts, it could not have gone any better! And we owe it all to you, my friend!
|-
| One Incorrect Answer || '''Hozan:''' By all accounts, it went quite well, and we have you to thank for that. You are too kind, my friend.
|-
| Two or more incorrect answers || '''Hozan:''' Hmm... I suppose I cannot be surprised. This is all rather sudden, and it is only natural for us all to struggle. I can but hope that we manage to put all our affairs in order before we depart...
|}

'''Hozan:''' We are forever in your debt!

'''Higiri:''' Hozan, you were going to meet with Slafborn one last time, were you not?
'''Higiri:''' We were hoping you would allow us to accompany you. If so, please let us know when you do.

'''(If Toll Booty is not finished)'''
'''Hozan:''' There are some few matters I must attend to before I speak with Slafborn, but it should not take much─ Hmm?
'''Hozan:''' That is Rhesh Polaali, is it not? Formerly of the Crystal Braves. Another kind-hearted soul to whom we owe much. She looks as though she is searching for something or someone...
'''Hozan:''' [Forename], I know it is not my place to ask, but would you assist her? I would myself if I could, but with our impending journey...
'''System:''' In order to undertake the subsequent quest, you must first complete the Doman Adventurers' Guild quest “Short Arms of the Law.
'''System:''' You may speak with Rhesh Polaali in order to undertake these side story quests, beginning with “Toll Booty.”

'''(If Toll Booty is finished)'''
'''Hozan:''' That said, perhaps we should speak with Slafborn sooner than later. I cannot think of any reason to delay.
'''Hozan:''' [Forename], I know I have imposed upon you enough, but might I ask you to accompany me as well?
