These deeds are recorded in a collection of nine sacred texts called the “Trials of the Braves”. He will send you to Rowena in Revenant's Toll - who in turn will direct you to G'jusana who is nearby. After speaking to G'jusana, the quest will move to your "completed quest log".

G'jusana will sell you one book at a time for Allagan Tomestone of Poetics 100 Allagan Tomestone of Poetics each. Each book contains a series of tasks to complete: 10 specific monsters to kill and 3 dungeons, 3 FATEs and 3 levequests to complete. Once all the tasks are completed in one book, return to G'jusana to buy the next one. You must finish all the tasks in one book before completing the next - however you can complete the books in any order. Each book will improve a stat on your Atma Zodiac Weapon.

Once all nine books have been completed; return to Jalzahn along with your unequipped Atma Zodiac Weapon and you will be rewarded your Animus Zodiac Weapon.

Notes

  • You can only ever own one book at a time. Each book is specific to a weapon and you must be equipped with the Atma Zodiac Weapon you wish to enhance when making the purchase.
  • Must equip the corresponding weapon in order for any completed task to be registered.
  • Buying a second book will automatically dispose of the first one. If the first book has not been completed it will need to be redone.
  • For FATEs:
  • For Dungeons:
    • Dungeons can be completed unsynced.
    • You must have your Atma Zodiac Weapon equipped for the final boss for it to count.[1] You can equip a stronger high-level weapon to make the dungeon go faster, but DON'T FORGET to re-equip your Atma weapon prior to engaging and killing the final boss, or else you'll have to re-run the entire dungeon to get credit.
    • You must be alive when the final boss of the dungeon is killed. If you are dead, it will not count towards completion of the book.[1]
  • For Levequests:
    • General levequests and Grand Company levequests are given out by two different NPCs at each location. Make sure you are talking to the correct one.
    • Only a limited number of levequests are offered at any one time. You may need to complete one of the levequests in order to have the one you need pop up.
      • If you're low on allowances, be sure to check all 3 zones for any of the leves you need prior to completing the others you don't. Completing a levequest in any zone will reset the list for all zones.
    • Levequests are only counted as "completed" when you collect the reward from the Levemete, as such, it is possible to do the leve with another weapon (or another class altogether) and switch back to your Atma before collecting the rewards, and it will still count.
  • Your last book will still remain in your Key Item Inventory after completion. To remove it, simply return to G'jusana and select the Disposal option.
  • This is a good opportunity for you to train your Chocobo if you wish.
