Destroy the boxes marked as airstones within the FATE area.

Note that the FATE description is slightly misleading. Destroying all the airstones will not give you enough completion to wrap up the FATE, you have to kill a few of the spawned Ixal as well.

King Theodoric

ReluctantGrace: the Divine Audience; the king becomes a paranoid recluse

'''King Theodoric''', known as the '''King of Ruin''', was the tyrannical king of [[Ala Mhigo]] who ascended to the throne in the year 1546. Theodoric was the last king of Ala Mhigo before the occupation of the [[Garlean Empire]].

A power-hungry despot, '''Theodoric''' proclaimed his kingship to be the product of divine will, ordained by [[Nymeia]] Herself. He believed the influential [[Fist of Rhalgr]] and its followers were a heretical group, and tensions between the two grew in intensity over the years. Eventually, citing a supposed "uprising", Theodric led a massive army to their temple and burned it to the ground, massacring the disciples within. This greatly angered the people, who formed an angry mob outside the palace. '''Theodoric''' instructed a young [[Raubahn Aldynn]] to suppress the mob. '''Raubahn''' did so without shedding a drop of blood in the process, earning him universal renown.

After exterminating the Fist, '''Theodoric''' enacted a series of purges that shook Ala Mhigan society to its very core and earned him the epithet the '''King of Ruin'''. He began with his own royal house, executing anyone with a claim to the Ala Mhigan throne, but soon turned his wrath on powerful noblemen and merchants. This turned the nobility against him, and with the help of his own queen, a group of nobles conspired to assassinate Theodoric, but the plot was betrayed by one among them and the plotters were all put to death.

The failed plot compounded the king's paranoia and insanity, and he became a recluse. Seeing enemies in every shadow, the purges intensified, sparing neither noble, beggar nor his own loyal followers. Anyone suspected of conspiracy against the crown was publicly executed by being flung from the top of the [[The Divine Audience|Divine Audience]] in Loch Seld.

Finally, in the year 1557, the people of '''Ala Mhigo''' revolted and stormed the royal palace. His guards, complicit in the uprising, simply opened the gates to his palace, letting the mob in to do what they pleased. Rather than allow himself to be torn apart by an angry mob, Theodoric took his own life, putting an end to his mad reign.

Following this act, '''Ala Mhigo''' entered into a state of economic unease, and the people were without a leader. It was at this time that the '''Garlean Empire''', taking advantage of the chaos, invaded and occupied '''Ala Mhigo'''.

ReluctantGrace: /* Transcript from Erik */ new section

== Transcript from Erik ==

I added a bunch of information from [[Erik]], the historian NPC from the Monk quests. I've tried to integrate this seamlessly into the original text wherever possible. Below is the transcript of his lines, if anyone wants to double-check my work.

Erik: ''As I likely explained if you have ever bothered to ask me about monks and the Fist of Rhalgr, the King of Ruin, Theodoric, was a ruthless despot and tyrant. It should come as no surprise, then, that he was the last king of Ala Mhigo.'' 
Erik: ''But the tale of his rise and fall is the stuff we historians live for! 
Erik: ''Theodoric's lust for power was such that nothing less than absolute rule would appease him. ''
Erik: ''To counter the political influence of the Fist of Rhalgr, he proclaimed his kingship to be the product of divine will─ordained by Nymeia Herself. What followed was a crusade which sought to exterminate the monks entirely.'' 
Erik: ''Yet it was the truly depraved acts of barbarism to come that would shake Ala Mhigan society to its very core. '' 
Erik: ''This ensuing era of terror was what earned Theodoric the title “King of Ruin.”'' 
Erik: ''After the massacre at the Fist's main temple, religious opposition to Theodoric nearly disappeared altogether.'' 
Erik: ''He then began purges of the Ala Mhigan royalty, seeing any and all potential pretenders to his throne dead and buried─regardless of house, loyalties, or standing.'' 
Erik: ''Beheadings were commonplace, carried out daily. Before long, it looked as though Theodoric would have no heads left to take.'' 
Erik: ''But he then turned his wrath upon any soul with a claim to the throne, no matter how remote. After that, it was to be the empowered nobles and wealthy merchants.'' 
Erik: ''Fearing for their lives, they professed their innocence to the queen, pleading for her to stay her maniacal husband's hand. She attempted words to assuage his lust for power turned lust for blood, but he was deaf to her appeals.'' 
Erik: ''Finding no recourse, she conspired with a group of nobles to murder Theodoric.'' 
Erik: ''Yet before the regicide could take place, one among them betrayed their plot, and for their treason, the king saw them all less a head.'' 
Erik: ''This only served to compound Theodoric's paranoia and insanity. Distrustful of all, his purges now became little more than random executions, claiming the lives of noble and beggar and all in between.'' 
Erik: ''It is not difficult to imagine what transpired next. '' 
Erik: ''The palace became a despicable gathering of sycophants and backstabbers, and the commonfolk scarce left their homes. Seeking heads on which to lay blame for worsening conditions, Theodoric turned the axe upon his most loyal followers.'' 
Erik: ''When the oppression became too much to bear, the people revolted and stormed the palace. The royal guard cast aside their vows and allowed the Ala Mhigans to pass.'' 
Erik: ''A noble revolt? For the best, no? False! It was the absence of leadership and solidarity in the wake of this chaos that prompted Garlemald to attack!'' 
Erik: ''In the end, Theodoric was lucid enough to judge suicide preferable to death at the hands of an angry mob. He ended his own life, and with it, his reign of ruin and his own bloodline.'' 
Erik: ''Or so it was thought at the time! '' 
Erik: ''But Theodred, a nephew to the king, was hidden by his mother in a remote temple of the Fist of Rhalgr which had survived the purges, and thus he escaped his uncle's fury.'' 
Erik: ''And that is the history of the last king of Ala Mhigo. And many a lesson there is to be learned from it! It is only a pity you are too dull to do so. 
''

==Walkthrough==
After getting the quest, talk to Linu Vanu, then go to the Cromlech to gather weeping wildwort. Place it at the Gundu totem, and do the /sundropdance. Return to Linu Vanu to collect the reward.

*The difficulty of this quest will be synced to your current level.

==Objectives==
*Speak with [[Linu Vanu]].
*Gather [[weeping wildwort]] at [[the Cromlech]].
*Place the wildwort at the Gundu totem.
*Perform the /sundropdance before the Gundu totem.
*Report to Linu Vanu.

==Journal==
Muna Vanu passes on a message that a concerned Linu Vanu wishes to speak with you. Details are lacking—you will need to speak with him yourself for further details

*Please note that the difficulty of this quest has been synced to your current level. Furthermore, you may not proceed with a class or job that is different from when you accepted this quest.

Upon speaking with Linu Vanu, you learn that his recent attempts at soothsaying bear ill portent for the tribe. A gaelicat he released fell promptly from the sky, to be seen no more. Fearing that Ok' Gundu's ancestors look down upon the tribe with disdain, he bids you travel to the Gundu totem at the old Ok' Gundu village, and place an offering of weeping wildwort. Present this offering along with the sundrop dance to quell their fury. Weeping wildwort can be found growing wild in patches at the Cromlech.

You have obtained the weeping wildwort. Take these flowers to Ok' Gundu and place them before the Gundu totem.

The weeping wildwort flowers lie at the foot of the Gundu totem. Dedicate this offering to the ancestors by performing the sundrop dance.

The flowers have been accepted. The contract is sealed. Return to Linu Vanu.

Linu Vanu thanks you for your assistance in calming the rage of his ancestors. However, he does now recall that the gaelicat he released to obtain this omen smelled strongly of intoxicating cloudcrawler...
