Aloalo Island

2023-12-09T02:58:56Z

Petar: Extremely minor edit; correcting a typo. First sentence under Quaqua heading, changed "First both of all paths" to "First boss..."

{{see also|Another Aloalo Island|Another Aloalo Island (Savage)}}
{{Duty infobox
| name = Aloalo Island
| description = In a seldom-traveled corner of the south sea isles lies Aloalo, an island filled with lush vegetation and teeming with vibrant wildlife. Yet the survival of this paradise hinges on a delicate natural balance which has only grown more precarious since the island's stewards departed a century ago. Answering the plea of a messenger most peculiar, you must join Matsya on a journey to restore order to Aloalo, and in the process uncover secrets long forgotten.

The dungeon's rewards are cosmetic in nature: the [[Free Spirit's Glamour Set]], as well as other glamour items, can be acquired for the currency obtained in the dungeon, while the [[Spectral Statice]] mount is obtained for completing all 12 [[Aloalo Conservation Record]]s (i.e., different endings depending on the dungeon mechanisms activated and paths taken).
{{TOC limit|3}}
==Objectives==
The party may unlock up to one entry in the [[Aloalo Conservation Record]] per instance.

Random events or player choices prior to the first boss will influence the first boss's mechanics. Player choices after the first boss will influence the second boss's mechanics and determine the lore entry unlock.

'''Accept Statice's offer.''' Interact with the portal and kill the six raptors in the following room. On the right side of the next hallway there is a tunnel hidden by vines. Pass through the vines and continue down the tunnel into the crocodile room, avoiding Statice's whoopee cushion trap.

'''Deny Statice's offer three times.''' Do not interact with the treasure boxes. Ignore the animal statues and pull the lever.
|-
| 11 || [[File:AloaloSurveyReportIcon11.png]] || '''A Lalafell Or A Fish?''' || Right || Deny Statice's offer three times. Interact with a treasure box and defeat the mimics. Ignore the animal statues and pull the lever.
|-
| 12 || [[File:AloaloSurveyReportIcon12.png]] || '''Wellspring Of Golden Memories''' || Right || Deny Statice's offer three times. Continue until reaching the three animal statues, and complete the three rituals correctly:

(1) [[File:Rite of the Sparrow icon.png|16px|Rite of the Sparrow|link=]] '''Sparrow''': Type: <code>/say O dancer of the skies, hear me.</code> (don't forget the period) > Use {{action icon|Blow Kiss}} (<code>/blowkiss</code>) before the sparrow. > Circle once clockwise around the statues, first passing the turtle, whale, and then the sparrow. > {{action icon|Dance}} (<code>/dance</code>) before the sparrow.

(2) [[File:Rite of the Great Whale icon.png|16px|Rite of the Great Whale|link=]] '''Whale''': Type: <code>/say O messenger from beyond the horizon, hear me.</code> Circle once clockwise around the statues, first passing the sparrow, statues, and then the turtle, before circling once counterclockwise. > {{action icon|Dance}} (<code>/dance</code>) before the whale.

(3) [[File:Rite of the Sea Turtle icon.png|16px|Rite of the Sea Turtle|link=]] '''Turtle''': Type: <code>/say O wayfarer of land and sea, hear me.</code> Circle twice counterclockwise around the statues, first passing the sparrow, whale, and then the turtle. > {{action icon|Bow}} (<code>/bow</code>) before the turtle.

Notes: Saying the initial phrase will cause the corresponding statue to glow, a symbol to appear above the player's head who will be given a buff, and a blue circle to in front of the statue, where they should begin their rotation movements. Performing a step correctly will trigger a sound effect. Players have 1 minute to complete each ritual once they say the activation phrase. If the player takes too long for a ritual, the symbol/buff will disappear and it will fail. Only the player with the buff can complete the ritual. Each ritual can be completed in any order, but once a ritual is started, it must be completed correctly before starting the next.

Afterwards, follow Matsya down the secret passage and continue through the foggy area, defeating the enemies and collecting the leather sack from Whasbyrm. In the area before the final boss, place the statues correctly: sparrow furthest from the boss room, whale middle, then turtle closest to the boss room. If done correctly, the mist will clear and the player will proceed to the secret boss.
|}
Note: If using a guide to complete the routes, it is recommended to attempt route 12 before 10-11, because if the player fails, they can still unlock the others. Completing Route 12 will unlock {{questlink|side|A Fish a Day}}, the second and final quest in the Aloalo Island questline.

To uncover the map in the closed-off room to the left, just before Statice's boss room, hug the left hallway at the bottom of the cliff from the room until the map is revealed. The room can normally be accessed by successfully completing the rituals and entering the secret foggy area (route 12) but not placing the statues correctly.

==Bosses==
Failing any boss mechanic will result in a {{status effect|vulnerability up}} '''[[Vulnerability Up]]''' debuff.

===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r5.png|link=]] [[Quaqua (boss)|Quaqua]]===
First boss of all paths. Shortly after engaging the boss, the arena will be surrounded with an AoE that will inflict damage-over-time to anyone who steps in it.

*'''Made Magic''': Partywide damage and spawns three blue spheres.
*'''Arcane Armaments''': The boss will tether to each sphere, and a green axe icon will slowly move towards each sphere. When it contacts, it will cause a brief point-blank AoE telegraph to appear. Move to the wall away from two spheres.
*'''Made Magic / Arcane Armaments''': Similar to before, but a green chakram icon will move to each sphere, which will telegraph a donut AoE instead, so move on top of a sphere.
*'''Arcane Armaments''': Spawns either two spears or two hammers to the sides of the boss.
**'''Rout''': If it spawns spears, it will dash to one wall, and telegraph four dashes through the arena: three dashes around the edge in a triangle pattern, and one through the middle. The boss will either dash through the middle first, then the edges, or edges first then middle.
**'''Hammer Landing''': If it spawns hammers, it will summon three beacons numbered 1-3. The boss will jump to each in order of the numbers and use a knockback. Position to avoid being knocked into the wall or use knockback immune. If timed correctly, knockback immune actions can prevent all 3 knockbacks.
*'''Violet Storm''': A 120 degree cleave in front of where the boss is facing. Only has a brief AoE indicator.

'''Left Path''': Quaqua's abilities change depending on the '''random weather event immediately prior to it''' (either '''fair skies''' or '''thunder''').
----
*If the weather is fair skies, Quaqua will use:
**'''Howl''': Summons two untargetable '''Anala Familiars''', one left and one right. Each will telegraph a line AoE ('''Scalding Waves''') that will cascade outwards in both directions. Dodge into one AoE telegraph after it goes off, wait for two AoEs, then dodge back to the middle.
*If the weather is stormy, Quaqua will use:
**'''Howl''': Summons four untargetable '''Drake Familiars''' at the north wall. Two drakes will spawn "exaflare" telegraphs ('''Cloud to Ground'''), followed by the other two.

'''Middle Path''': Quaqua's abilities change depending on '''how many poison flowers the player stepped on'''. If four flowers are stepped on, the ground prior to the boss will become poisonous.
----
*If fewer than four flowers were stepped on:
**'''Arcane Armaments''': Spawns two tethers in a straight line, each with a green spear icon, to the water in the background. The summoned spears will use a large, briefly telegraphed, circle AoE originating from the targeting lasers. After hitting the ground, they will telegraph two multi-hit cross-shaped AoEs that will rotate according to the arrows. Start in the area where both AoEs are rotating towards, then slowly move in a straight line to the other previously safe area once the AoEs start going off.
*If four or more flowers were stepped on:
**'''Arcane Armaments''': Spawns three tethers in a Y pattern, each with a green spear icon, to the purple water in the background. The summoned spears will then hit the arena and each spawn a growing circular pool of poison water. Move to the wall between two spears that are far away (two safe spots in total).

'''Right Path''': Quaqua's abilities change depending '''how many fallen statues were repaired'''.
----
*If both statues were repaired:
**'''Arcane Pursuit''': Spawns four purple orbs ('''Aetheric Charge''') near the center of the arena. The statues at the edge of the arena will cast a line AoE that is harmless to players, but will remove the orbs.
**'''Arcane Pursuit''': Now spawns a purple orb that will tether to players and slowly follow them. A statue will telegraph a line AoE as before. The orbs should be baited so they are hit by the AoE and destroyed. Orbs that collide with players or are not destroyed will do high damage. Another statue will telegraph a line AoE, giving the party two chances to destroy all orbs.
*If 0-1 statues were repaired:
**The four statues outside of the arena will begin glowing purple. Two statues at at time will begin telegraphing gaze attacks ('''Arcane Intervention''') that will resolve once the purple circle converges on the statue, so look away from the statues before their gaze resolves. Being hit will inflict {{status effect|hysteria}} '''[[Hysteria]]'''.

The following are used regardless of path:

'''Made Magic / Arcane Armaments''': Similar to before, but now spawns five spheres: three will have chakram icons, and two will have axe icons. Dodge by going to a sphere containing a chakram that is not directly next to an axe.

===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r6.png|link=]] Soul of the South Seas: [[Ketuduke]]===
Second boss of the left path. Shortly after engaging the boss, the arena will be surrounded with an AoE that will inflict damage-over-time to anyone who steps in it.

*'''Tidal Roar''': Party-wide damage.
*'''Spring Crystals''': Spawns four round-ish '''Spring Crystals''' on some tiles. These will each do a telegraphed point-blank AoE ('''Saturate'''), so do not be near them.
*'''Spring Crystals''': Spawns two flat '''Spring Crystals''' on some tiles. These will each do a telegraphed line AoE ('''Saturate''') in the directions of the long faces of the crystal, each hitting a column of tiles.
*'''Spring Crystals''': Spawns two flat '''Spring Crystals''' on two adjacent tiles on the east wall.
**'''Bubble Net''': Party-wide damage. One of the crystals will be lifted up into a bubble.
**'''Fluke Typhoon''': A gust of wind in one direction that will move the bubbled crystal two tiles. After this resolves, the crystal line AoEs will immediately resolve with a very brief telegraph.
*'''Strewn Bubbles''': Four blue portals will travel two tiles from the center in alternating directions, leaving behind a blue line. This telegraphs an AoE that covers each tile the line passes through.
*'''Encroaching Twintides''': A telegraphed donut AoE, immediately followed by a point-blank AoE ('''Near Tide''') with a very brief telegraph.

The boss will use a mechanic that depended on the route:

'''(Route 1) No fishing; do not assist Zozone''':
----
*'''Zozone''' (untargetable) will spawn and want revenge.
*'''Spring Crystals''': Spawns two flat crystals on two adjacent middle tiles near Zozone.
*'''Bubble Net''': Partywide damage and traps one crystal in a bubble. The boss then begins casting '''Fluke Typhoon'''.
*Zozone will spawn an untargetable '''Summoned Apa''' add. It will tether to players with a proximity tether and cast '''Water III''', requiring them to be far away to avoid excess damage while resolving the crystal line AoEs after '''Fluke Typhoon'''.
*After the mechanic, Zozone will flee.

'''(Route 2) No fishing; Save Zozone''':
----
*'''Tidal Wave''': Telegraphed knockback from one side. Cannot be prevented with knockback immune actions. Players will be inflicted with {{status effect|bind}} '''[[Bind]]''' for a few seconds during the knockback.
*'''Hydrosurge''': Spawns a persistent line AoE through the middle of the arena.
*'''Zozone''' (untargetable) will spawn to assist the party.
*'''Spring Crystals''': Spawns two flat crystals whose AoEs will cover the two columns on the side of the arena that the party is on.
*Zozone will spawn a '''Summoned Apa''' and '''Summoned Anila'''. The Apa will cast '''Wavefoam''', spawning multiple bubbles on the arena.
*Each player should step in a bubble, which will {{status effect|bind}} '''Bind''' and inflict [[File:Bubble net icon.png|link=]] '''Bubble Net'''.
*The Anila will use '''Fluke Typhoon''', knocking all bubbled players to the other side without crystals, safely across the persistent line AoE.
*Zozone and the adds will then flee.

'''(Route 3) Fishing; right sand pile''':
----
*'''Roar''': Summons two untargetable '''Aloalo Zaratan''', each of which will face opposite directions (indicated by the orange arrow). They will both telegraph a 180 degree frontal cleave, together covering the entire arena.
*'''Bubble Net''': Partywide damage and traps one of the adds in a bubble.
*'''Updraft''': The bubbled add will be knocked up into the air, and both adds will resolve their AoE. Go in front of the bubbled add as its attack will miss.

'''(Route 4) Fishing; left stone pile''':
----
*'''Roar''': Summons an untargetable '''Aloalo Ogrebon''' in the middle of the arena.
*'''Bubble Net''': Partywide damage and spawns several bubbles on the arena.
*The Ogrebon will begin casting '''Shock''', a massive AoE that covers the entire arena. Each player should enter a bubble.
*'''Updraft''': Any bubbled players will be knocked up into the air and dodge the AoE from the add.

The following are common regardless of route.
----
*'''Spring Crystals''': Spawns four round crystals on one middle row and two flat crystals on adjacent wall tiles.
**'''Bubble Net''': Traps two round crystals and one flat crystal, followed by '''Fluke Typhoon'''. To dodge these AoEs, go to the middle of the tile that initially contained a round crystal trapped in a bubble.
*'''Hydrobomb''': Three sets of sequential baited circle AoEs on players.
*'''Blowing Bubbles''': Eight portals (four on opposite walls) will appear and each spawn a bubble that will move across the arena. Being hit will {{status effect|bind}} '''[[Bind]]''' the player for several seconds and make them vulnerable to other avoidable AoEs.
**Meanwhile, the boss will cast '''Receding Twintides''', a telegraphed point-blank AoE, that is immediately followed by '''Far Tide''', a briefly telegraphed donut AoE.
*'''Strewn Bubbles''' is used again but will be combined with '''Receding Twintides''' (out then in) instead.
*'''Hydroblast''': Telegraphed AoE tankbuster.

===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r6.png|link=]] Timeless Guardian: The [[Lala]]===
Second boss of the middle path. Shortly after engaging the boss, the arena will be surrounded with an AoE that will inflict damage-over-time to anyone who steps in it.

*'''Inferno Theorem''': Party-wide damage.
*'''Arcane Blight''': Telegraphed 270 degree conal AoE.
*'''Arcane Plot''': Spawns several blue tiles with arrows, on the walls. These telegraph persistent AoEs that will move in the direction of the arrow across the arena, covering all tiles in the path. Go to a tile that an arrow does not travel through.
*'''Arcane Blight''': Similar as before, but also telegraphs a 90 degree rotation of the AoE telegraph (either clockwise or counterclockwise), with a timer indicating when the rotation will resolve. The safe spot is after the AoE rotates.
*'''Analysis''': Gives each player a [[File:Front unseen icon.png|link=]][[File:Right unseen icon.png|link=]][[File:Back unseen icon.png|link=]][[File:Left unseen icon.png|link=]] '''Front/Right/Back/Left Unseen''' debuff.
*'''Targeted Light''': Tethers all players, who will be targeted with an unavoidable attack. Each player must face their gap towards the boss to avoid taking high damage.

The boss will use a mechanic that depended on the route:

'''(Route 5) Go straight through''':
----
*'''Faunal Figure''': Spawns two untargetable '''Rodiaki''' (armadillo) adds, who will telegraph two proximity AoEs ('''Flail Smash''') near the middle of the arena.

'''(Route 6) Scare off armadillos''':
----
*'''Floral Figure''': Spawns two untargetable '''Kapokapo''' (seedling) adds, who will telegraph two donut AoEs ('''Rolling Spout''') near the middle of the arena.

'''(Route 7) Do not hit J'jhimei''':
----
*'''Constructive Figure''': Spawns three untargetable '''Aloalo Golem''' adds, who will telegraph three line AoEs ('''Aero II''') hitting adjacent rows.

'''(Route 8) Damage J'jhimei''':
----
*'''Volcanic Coordinates''': Two sets of baited circle AoEs on players.

The following are common regardless of route.
----
*'''Strategic Strike''': Three-hit tankbuster
*'''Analysis''' and '''Targeted Light''' are used again, but this time, the safe direction will rotate 90 degrees based on the telegraph, requiring players to face the gap towards the boss that takes into account the rotation. An easy way to resolve it is to look at the debuff icon and rotate it instead of trying to rotate the yellow marker around the character.
*'''Arcane Plot''': Similar as before, but only spawns two blue tiles with arrows. In addition, there will be two tiles with arrows only, indicating that the moving AoE will change direction upon reaching those tiles. This leaves one row or column of tiles at the wall safe.
*'''Calculated Trajectory''': Gives each player a '''Face''' debuff (e.g., [[File:Forward march icon1.png|link=]] '''Forward March''', [[File:About face icon1.png|link=]] '''About Face''', [[File:Left face icon1.png|link=]] '''Left Face''', [[File:Right face icon1.png|link=]] '''Right Face'''.) that will turn into a {{status effect|forced march}} '''[[Forced March]]'''. In addition, the direction of the march will rotate 90 degrees based on the overhead telegraph. Players must face so they do not force march into the wall or the AoEs. Similar to '''Analysis''', it may be easier to look at the debuff icon instead of the arrow marker below the character.
*'''Arcane Plot''' is used again and will spawn AoE telegraphs and arrows similar to the first use. However, this attack will be combined with the previous route-dependent mechanic. For routes 5-7, the variable mechanic will resolve after the tile AoEs propagate.
**'''(Route 5) Faunal Figure''': The adds telegraph two proximity AoEs ('''Flail Smash''') on two wall tiles.
**'''(Route 6) Floral Figure''': The four adds each telegraph a donut AoE ('''Rolling Spout''') centered on it, leaving only one tile safe.
**'''(Route 7) Constructive Figure''': The two adds each telegraph a line AoE ('''Rolling Spout''') centered on it, leaving two tiles safe.
**'''(Route 8) Volcanic Coordinates''': Two sets of baited AoEs that appear with the arrow telegraphs. The baited AoEs will resolve before the tile AoEs propagate.

===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r6.png|link=]] Long-lost Faerie: [[Statice]]===
Second boss of the right path.

Immediately after engaging the boss, she will not move, and a landmine will appear in the middle of the arena. Players should be careful to avoid it, which will safely disappear after a few seconds.

*'''Surprise Balloon''': Inflates a balloon in the middle that will telegraph a knockback. A needle will use a telegraphed line AoE that will pop the balloon and cause the knockback.
**'''4-tonze Weight''': In addition, multiple circle AoE telegraphs at the edge of the arena will appear, leaving several gaps. Players should be knocked back to a safe area or use knockback immune.
*'''Trick Reload''': Statice will sequentially load 6 bullets into her gun. Four of them will be successfully loaded, while two will miss. The boss will count the bullets she attempts to load. The party should take note of which bullets miss.
**'''Trigger Happy''': Cover the arena with 6 conal AoE telegraphs, numbered 1-6. Numbered regions corresponding to the missed bullets are safe. For example, if '''Trick Reload''' had an OOXOXO pattern (O = loaded; X = missed), then the slices numbered 3 and 5 are safe.
*'''Pinwheel''': The boss will summon three untargetable '''Balls of Fire''' at the walls. Each will telegraph a line AoE with a gap and a clockwise or counterclockwise rotation ('''Fire Spread'''). All three will rotate the same direction. Players can use the gaps to dodge the AoEs.
*'''Aero IV''': Party-wide damage.

The boss will use a mechanic that depended on the route:

'''(Route 9) Accept Statice's offer and fall for the whoopee cushion prank''':
----
*'''Whoopee Cushion''': Spawns several whoopee cushion shadows around the arena. Stepping on one will reveal a cushion.
*'''Fair Flight''': Knocks up all players, who will take damage once they fall. Players must be knocked up on a cushion, which will prevent them from taking damage when they safely land on it. Anyone who lands on the floor will take damage and be immobilized for a few seconds.

'''(Route 10) Deny Statice's offer and avoid the trapped treasure coffers''':
----
*'''Present Box''': Spawns four staves near the middle of the arena, several '''Surprising Missiles''' at the walls, and a '''Surprising Weapon''', who will tether to a player. Two staves will telegraph donut AoEs, while the other two will aim line AoE telegraphs at random players. The party must avoid the AoEs and the missiles. If the '''Surprising Weapon''' gets too close to its target, it will knock the player back but not damage them.

'''(Route 11) Deny Statice's offer and open a trapped treasure coffer''':
----
*'''Jack-in-the-box''': Spawns four large, untargetable treasure coffers. Three of them will slightly move, while the fourth will remain still. The three that moved will then use a large point-blank AoE ('''Burst''') with a brief indicator, so move to the stationary box.

The following are common regardless of route:
----
*'''Dartboard''': Divides the arena into several slices of different colors (red, blue, yellow, and a narrower green section). Each color has a symbol on it (red = meteor, blue = hexagon, yellow = hammer, green = butterfly).
**The boss will spawn two sets of circle AoE telegraphs in random locations.
**A targetable '''Homing Pattern''' will spawn. When hit, it will be pushed in the direction of the attack. If it is too close to the boss, she will also push it in a random direction. If it touches the wall, it will be repelled.
**After several seconds, one of the following mechanics will resolve depending on which color section the '''Homing Pattern''' is currently in.
***'''Red''': Unavoidable party-wide damage ('''Meteor''')
***'''Blue''': Deals 10 damage to each player ('''Hunks of Junk''')
***'''Yellow''': Proximity AoE telegraph ('''Sledgemagic''')
***'''Green''': Temporary [[File:Sprint buff icon.png|link=]] '''Movement Speed Up''' to all players.
*'''Pinwheel''' is used again, but now combined with '''Trick Reload''' and '''Trigger Happy'''. Players must move to a safe sector while avoiding the rotating line AoEs.
*'''Surprise Balloon''' is used again, but now combined with '''Trick Reload''' and '''Trigger Happy'''. In addition, the balloon will inflate at a wall. The party should position to be knocked back into a safe sector, or use knockback immune.
*'''Shocking Abandon''': Tankbuster

===[[File:Aggressive difficulty r6.png|link=]] Forgotten Figure: [[Loquloqui]]===
Secret second boss of the right path. Shortly after engaging the boss, the arena will be surrounded with an AoE that will inflict damage-over-time to anyone who steps in it.

*'''Long-lost Light''': Party-wide damage.
*'''Summoning Rite''': Spawns four untargetable Uolosapa (bird) adds at the north wall, each of which will telegraph a narrow line AoE.
**'''O Life, Flourish''': Tethers two adds, causing their line AoEs to widen.
*'''Summoning Rite''': Spawns six untargetable Repulu (newt) adds on the arena, each of which will telegraph a small point-blank AoE.
**'''O Life, Flourish''': Tethers three adds, causing their circle AoEs to enlarge.
*'''Protective Will''': Tankbuster.
*'''O Petals, Unfurl''': Spawns two glowing flower buds on the wall, each of which will tether a glowing area on the arena. The flower buds will then travel to the glowing area and emit a large point-blank AoE with a brief indicator.
*'''Land Wave''': 180 degree frontal cleave from the boss. Only has a brief ground indicator.
*'''O Isle, Bloom''': Twelve flower bed tiles will sequentially spawn in a zigzag pattern, covering the entire arena. These telegraph square AoEs, so move into one after it resolves.
*'''O Sky, Be Mine''': The boss grows in size.
**'''Sanctuary''': Proximity AoE telegraph in the middle.
**'''Stirring of Spirits''': The boss will jump in place three times, each doing party-wide damage and a knockback ('''Shockwave'''), while spawning three sets several circle AoE telegraphs. Position to avoid being knocked back into the wall or the AoEs, or time knockback immune to cover all three knockbacks.
**The boss will then return to its normal size.
*'''Summoning Rite''': Spawns four birds and six newts, which function as before.
**'''O Life, Flourish''': Tethers two birds and two newts, causing their AoEs to enlarge. Move to a corner of the arena without any tethered adds nearby.
*'''O Petals, Unfurl''': Functions similarly as before, but now summons four flower buds. Two of them will have short tethers, so they will reach their destination and emit their AoEs first, while the other two have long tethers. Starting from the long tether side, wait until the short tethers resolve, then move into that side of the arena.

==Loot==
Aloalo Island uses '''personal loot''', so players have to be sure to click and loot each chest themselves. If the party chooses the same portal that the NPC suggests at the start of the dungeon, an additional treasure coffer will spawn later on the path, immediately prior to the second boss.

==Walkthrough==
???

==Steps==
*Rendezvous with the [[Deftarm]] at [[Ok' Gundu Nakki]].
*Search for [[Linu Vali]] at [[Voor Sian Siran]].
*Perform for [[Linu Vali]] a [[Dance|/dance]] she has never seen.
*Speak with the [[Deftarm]].
*Speak with the [[Deftarm]] at [[Ok' Gundu Nakki]].

==Journal==
*The deftarm is trembling with equal parts excitement and fear.

*You and the deftarm have learned that your quarry has plotted a course for the Sea of Clouds in a manacutter commandeered from the Convictory. His anxiety about traveling to unfamiliar environs tempered the knowledge that you have friends among the Vanu Vanu who call this place home, your ever-enthusiastic pupil dashes off to hop aboard a kongamato. You can only hope that the deftarm's overeagerness will not be his downfall.

*You arrive at Ok' Gundu Nakki to see that the deftarm has managed to get himself captured by Linu Vanu, who has mistaken the Vath for an atypical—but still appetizing—wamouracampa. The Vanu Vanu soon releases his quarry with a flurry of apologies, however, upon hearing that his would-be meal is in fact your fast friend and pupil. Linu Vanu can offer no news on the man you seek, but does share his concern that his sister Linu Vali has not returned since leaving the village to perfect a new dance. Concerned that she may come to harm if the masked marauder is roaming the area, you and the deftarm set out in search.

*You find Linu Vali, and are relieved to see that she has come to no harm, but was merely seeking inspiration for her new dance in the idyllic climes of Voor Sian Siran. She laments, however, that her new dance has not taken form quite as she hoped it would. Turning to you for inspiration, she asks that you perform for her a dance the likes of which neither her kind nor yours has ever seen. Might you perchance have some movements in your repertoire that would serve to stir her creative juices?

*You dance the dance of the moogles for Linu Vali, who is most taken with these endearing and unworldly undulations, joyfully proclaiming that she has found her long-sought inspiration. Unfamiliar with the importance of dance in Vanu Vanu culture, the deftarm is less than impressed, derisively insisting that flailing about will not avail you in the matter at hand: to wit, the pursuit of the masked villain you seek. Your pupil is quickly silenced when, against all odds, you spot a suspicious personage enjoying a leisurely bath in a nearby pool. The masked man introduces himself as Nhaza'a Jaab, and you soon surmise that this is none other than the ruthless villain behind Gullinbursti's sudden turn to madness. Your brave-if-foolhardy pupil steps forth to confront the masked Miqo'te and gleans some gainful information in the process: namely, that the man is in the service of an imperial agent, and possesses a firearm with the power to rob dragons and beastmen of their free will. The confrontation is brief, however, as the ruthless rogue treacherously disarms the deftarm. Wielding his weapon against a trio of unwitting Gundu warriors who arrive on the scene, he turns them against you and takes advantage of the ensuing chaos to make a discreet retreat. When Linu Vali's sundrop dance fails to subdue the ensorcelled Gundu, she asks you to join her in performing the dance she devised with your inspiration. The moonlift dance—as Linu Vali dubs it—shakes the very earth, and the Gundu return to their senses as they back away, ashamed at their actions. All present breathe a sigh of relief, although the deftarm is clearly disheartened that the dance he so mocked proved more powerful than did he. Perhaps a word from you might serve to lift your pupil's spirits.

*The deftarm is discouraged, but undeterred, and together you resolve to continue the search for your dangerous and elusive quarry. In the meantime, Linu Vali invites you and your friends to return to Ok' Gundu Nakki, where she would report back to Linu Vanu on recent developments.

*Back in Ok' Gundu Nakki, you are rejoined by Master Mogzin and Ohl Deeh, who lament that while they were able to track down Gullinbursti, he soon flew off in a rage, doubtless summoned by the master that Nhaza'a Jaab serves. You, the deftarm, and Ohl Deeh resolve to pursue him northeast to Azys Lla, but not all of your friends will be following you. For while Linu Vali desires to join you, she is forbidden by Vanu tradition from setting foot in that baneful land. Meanwhile, Master Mogzin seems to have suffered a sudden crisis of confidence, insisting that he has naught to offer you in the battle to come. Ignoring the heated pleas of the deftarm and Ohl Deeh, he shrinks off back to Moghome with his tail between his legs...

==Note==

Linu Vali isn't satisfied by any old dance, and wants to see a Moogle dance (/mogdance).
