— In-game description
Walkthrough
During this quest, you and your allies will need to defeat a shade of Gulool Ja Ja in his prime self to obtain the last keystone. In the solo instance, you will be accompanied by Alphinaud, Alisaie, Thancred, Urianger, Krile, Wuk Lamat, and Koana. Gulool has similar attacks to his real self in 
A Father First but several of them will be enhanced.
- Roaring Star: Roomwide magical damage and spawns four spinning fireballs, each of which will use a late telegraphed line AoE through the room, leaving approximately one quarter safe.
- Coiled Strike: Gulool summons two blade symbols on the arena that will each have a shadow rotating towards one direction. This indicates two wide late telegraphed conal AoEs, leaving narrow safe regions directly behind the blade symbols outside of the shadow.
- Celestial Flame: Three sets of three fire blades will drop, each dealing magical damage. They will telegraph circle AoEs in the order they spawned.
- Dual Pyres: One of Gulool's swords will begin glowing and have a one pip over it, followed by his other swords, which will have a two pip. These indicate late telegraphed half-room cleaves in the order they glow. Afterwards, two sets of crisscross line AoE telegraphs will spawn, covering the entire room.
- Steelfold Strike: Spawns multiple circle AoEs and a glowing X (indicating line AoEs), followed by the same telegraphs in different locations. The boss will jump to each X.
- Outer Wake: Telegraphed donut AoE, immediately followed by a spread AoE marker (Fallen Star) on the player and each ally.
- Lay of the Sun: Multi-hit stack AoE dealing physical damage.
- Oathbind: The boss will enchain Urianger, Alphinaud, Thancred, and Wuk Lamat, immobilizing them while telegraphing a line AoE (Noble Trail) that will hit them. Destroy the Oath of Fire chains to free them. The party will appear to initially struggle with the DPS check, but Koana will use a limit-break like action that will deal massive damage to all of the chains.
- Roaring Star is used again but now combined with Inner Wake, a telegraphed point-blank AoE and spread markers on the player and each ally.
- Battle Breaker: Gulool knocks back everyone, stunning them, and a cutscene plays where he summons an enormous flaming sword. Wuk Lamat will summon a blue AoE that the player should stand in, which will mitigate damage from Gulool's ultimate attack (Saga of Dawn and Duty). This attack hits multiple times (Shockwave), so the player should assist with healing if possible.
Mechanics will then repeat until the boss is defeated.

Dialogue
Optional dialogue
I don't think I trust the Third Promise yet. But if she can offer us some tangible hope, then maybe...
Many are reluctant to trust the Third Promise, but all agreed to wait for her return. That alone gives me cause to hope.
Honestly, I don't know what I hope to hear...
If you can truly help us, I'll wait here for as long as you need.
I remain here out of deference to Miilal Ja. As the mother of our chosen one, her wishes deserve to be honored.
Accepting the quest
I'm sure Zereel Ja would have choice words for us if he knew what we were up to.
But his people are my people, and I can't ignore their plight.
If I'm to call myself Dawnservant one day, I have to bring an end to the tragedy here. Many are depending on me, Bakool Ja Ja not least of all.
Anyway, I'm sure Koana and the others will be back with their report soon.
Optional dialogue
They shouldn't be much longer now!
Wait at the designated location.
Start of cutscene.Good, everyone is assembled. In light of our news, I thought it only right to call the others.
Thanks to the efforts of all, I'm pleased to say our analysis has yielded many valuable insights.
And I daresay the prognosis is hopeful.
Earlier, we asked about the hopes you place in blessed siblings. Why they are important to you.
Your overwhelming response was a frustration towards this forest.
From a lack of natural resources to the inability to cultivate crops, in all respects have you ever struggled to build a prosperous home. Thus your understandable desire for new land.
However, this would be an unfortunate dismissal of what makes your forest uniquely valuable.
That is, the soil. Our tests have proven, without a doubt, that the Ja Tiika Heartland is abundantly fertile.
This may be surprising to hear, as you have seen crops fail time and time again. But we have discovered the root of this problem as well.
The meteorites scattered throughout your forest emit an unusual energy that greatly influences the development of surrounding plant life.
Some plants thrive on this energy─like the najool and the giant trees that create the canopy. But others, as you well know, are sickened by it.
Fortunately, the solution is simple.
Across the salt in a place called Sharlayan, there is a peerless collection of flora sampled from every corner of the world.
Now that we know what energies are most prevalent in your forest, we can offer you seeds and starters guaranteed to thrive here.
I took the liberty of contacting a few colleagues via linkpearl. Should you desire them, a sample of our best candidates can be shipped here in short order.
Just as Eorzea acquired the popoto and tomato from Tural, so too might Mamook benefit from foreign crops.
You mean...we'd be able to grow more than najool here?
Precisely. While care must be taken to choose those species that will not have an adverse effect on the ecosystem, your agricultural options should increase markedly.
With the right crops, Mamook will have all it needs to prosper, both at home and in trade. Blessed siblings don't have to be the answer anymore!
Then...there was never any need to fight? Never any need to sacrifice...
We can't change the past. But we can try to make the future better.
Let the old teachings end with us.
I know blessed siblings represent absolute strength to you. Letting go of that idea can't be easy.
But I'll prove that when we work together, our combined strength can achieve anything!
...Show us, Promise.
If there's another way... For our children and our home... We'll no longer suffer in silence!
Sometimes, we have to fight alone─but not this time.
Would you say a few words, Forename?
What will you say?
Anything is possible when you work together. Our victory over Valigarmanda is proof of that.
The Skyruin!? The great Gulool Ja Ja himself struggled to even seal it!
With faithful allies at your side, you can save even the entire star.
Saving the star is far beyond the scope of our needs...but I acknowledge the value of allies.
In friends both old and new, you can find the light to banish the darkness!
Friends? A perplexing notion from an outsider...but not unwelcome.
We've said what we wanted to say!
Now all that's left is to defeat my father's shade in the Feat of the Brotherhood and clear the way for Mamook's bright new future!
Do not give us cause to question our faith in you, please. Live up to your words.
I will!
After we complete his feat, let's be sure to tell Zereel Ja the good news about his forest. I'm sure he's as eager as anyone to eat what tasty foods they'll grow here!
Compassion even for the likes of him. You continue to eclipse me in every way...
...Then it is a simple choice.
We're counting on you, Wuk Lamat...
End of cutscene.
Speak with Erenville.
Wuk Lamat's gone ahead to announce her readiness.
I never imagined the samples we so feverishly collected for the exodus would find new purpose here...
But if they help these people improve their prospects, all the better.
Anyway, we should go and meet our comrades where Zoraal Ja made his own attempt. The final feat awaits...
Optional dialogue
This feat may bring us closer to the golden city, but for now we must stand strong for the people of Mamook!
I can offer moral support at best. For whatever it's worth. Good luck.
Zereel Ja's intention was for this feat to prove the supremacy of blessed siblings.
But Wuk Lamat shall instead prove that there are other ways for Mamook's people to empower themselves.
Where did Koana go? Have you seen him?
Speak with Wuk Lamat.
Someone has gone to fetch Zereel Ja. He should be here soon.
Upon proceeding, several cutscenes will play in sequence.
It is recommended that you set aside sufficient time to view these scenes in their entirety.
It is recommended that you set aside sufficient time to view these scenes in their entirety.
Start of voiced cutscene.Zereel Ja! I'm ready for the final feat!
Hmph. Grown weary of postponing the inevitable, have you?
Something like that. You see, I've learned all sorts of things about Mamook and your people.
Is that supposed to impress me?
I now understand why I need to surpass blessed siblings.
The cost of producing “superior” offspring is destroying your people's souls. Look at them and you'll see this.
So I'll defeat my father's shade and prove to you that there's a better path for Mamook!
What drivel. Without the blessed, we are nothing but weaklings─doomed to fade into obscurity!
Of course you're weak. We all are, each and every one of us.
But when we join hands, we gain the strength to overcome any foe─even Valigarmanda!
Enough talk. Prove your mettle against Gulool Ja Ja, the finest warrior ever to have graced Tural!
Fine by me. Not even Papa's shade will stop me from upholding his legacy!
Koana's team arrives.
I will fight alongside her.
Claimants are not permitted to assist one another, Second Promise. But you may observe your sister's pitiable attempt.
I see. In that case...
Koana throws his tablet in the air and destroys it with his gun.
It seems I'm no longer a claimant. I am now free to participate, I trust?
What are you scheming?
Nothing. I've simply come to realize who is worthy of following in Father's footsteps.
Not our brother. Not Bakool Ja Ja. And not me.
You have always held the happiness of our people closest to your heart, Lamaty'i. So I will do everything in my power to ensure you ascend to the throne.
This is how I shall repay Father for his kindness. This is how I shall serve Tuliyollal!
I could always count on you, Koana. Thank you.
Hmph. It will make no difference. Numbers matter not in the face of true might.
Gulool Ja Ja, mightiest of the blessed...arise!
Gulool Ja Ja's Glory is summoned.
Everyone ready?
No hard feelings, Papa! I've got a lot of hopes riding on my shoulders─and the only way forward is through you!
End of cutscene.
Solo Duty
Defeat Gulool Ja Ja's Glory!
Bear witness to our resolve!
And the reason which guides our journey...
So long as we stand together, we're unstoppable!
What potent magic. In that case...
I shall protect thee.
Beware your surroundings!
Father's magicks are incredible...
These blades sundered Valigarmanda's scales!
Mark the trajectory of his blades.
Promise!
No mercy, eh?
Blades of fire rain.
I-I'm fine, I'm fine!
Alisaie! Are you all right!?
Such power...
Take that!
Gahahahaha!
Spread out, spread out!
What a chore...
Ever hungry for battle...
This should help!
You're not alone!
Go forth!
Heh. Overbearing bastard.
How is this?
He's beginning a ritual of flame!
Huh!? I-I can't move!
This isn't good.
These magicks are too strong!
Curses...
Some manner of paralyzing effect—defend the afflicted!
We must free them! Target the constricting flames!
None can outrun my flames.
For Lamaty'i!
Not enough... But together, we shall triumph!
I thank you.
Thanks! I owe you one.
Thank the Twelve...
My thanks.
Keep heart!
I shall protect thee.
You're not alone!
Blades of fire rain.
I know now who you are, but I applaud your tenacity.
Surely this will quench your thirst for battle.
Wah!
What!?
Agh!
Start of voiced cutscene.Resolve and Reason kindle...
By crimson wrath be sundered!
Gulool Ja Ja's Glory summons an enormous flaming sword.
End of cutscene.
Everyone, get behind me! I've got a bad feeling about this...
Of course.
We're in your hands.
Understood!
All right!
Will you have the strength to stand after this?
Do you need a hand?
I have your back!
You're not alone!
I shall assist thee.
5 seconds to Saga of Dawn and Duty...
4 seconds to Saga of Dawn and Duty...
3 seconds to Saga of Dawn and Duty...
2 seconds to Saga of Dawn and Duty...
1 second to Saga of Dawn and Duty...
I will be the next Dawnservant...I will protect my people!
I won't lose...!
Hehehe... Is that the best you can do?
Impressive—but I'm not finished y et!
We will see Lamaty'i become Dawnservant. For Tuliyollal!
This should help!
I'll protect everyone!
Perhaps this will help.
Post-duty cutscene
Start of voiced cutscene.That's my old man for you...
The defeated shade dissipates. Zereel Ja stomps in frustration.
I refuse...to accept this...
Ain't that a bit stubborn? Even for you.
A Roegadyn? It couldn't be...
Tankwa! It's been too long!
It has indeed. You're lookin' more imposin' since last I saw you, Wuk Lamat.
Tankwa?
My Turali moniker. Gulool Ja Ja insisted I take one, sayin' my birth name was too cumbersome for the local tongues.
That birth name being “Ketenramm,” I presume.
NO!
Ketenramm's that legendary Eorzean sailor! The one with the pickled cabbage!
...We can talk about me cabbage later.
Zereel Ja. Whether you like it or no, these young'uns accomplished the feat.
To deny Wuk Lamat her reward would be to betray the Dawnservant's trust.
And what should she be rewarded for!? Calling upon her minions to carry her to victory!?
What will you say?
We're not minions. We're Wuk Lamat's friends and comrades.
Comrades... You believe a ruler should be reliant upon such?
You're the Autarch of Mamook. Show some dignity.
I don't have dignity. Not anymore. I wagered everything on this feat.
And by the same token, I understand the enormity of your accomplishment.
Together, we can achieve anything. You needn't place your faith in the promise of blessed siblings.
How would you have us reclaim our glory?
With friendship and community. With us.
If you mean to rule, you should be more sparing with your offers of clemency. Especially to a man who has sacrificed countless young lives.
Nevertheless...I will fulfill my charge as elector. In recognition of your feat...I bestow upon you a keystone.
Zereel Ja hands Wuk Lamat the final keystone.
Congratulations...are nearly in order, I suppose. I'm confident that you will find the golden city in no time.
You've grown much and more during this journey. Become someone ready to lead our nation.
Little Lamaty'i no longer. As your brother, I couldn't be more proud.
Koana...thank you.
Koana addresses Urianger and Thancred.
I must express my gratitude for your cooperation...and my regret for failing to live up to expectations.
Nonsense. If you believe Wuk Lamat is the woman for the job, then you have our wholehearted support.
One last thing. I wish to speak to you both from the heart. Unpracticed as I am, this may sound hackneyed, but...
I am truly grateful to have met you.
Words spoken with such feeling would resonate with any fortunate enough to hear them.
Though our journey together hath ended, ever shall we cherish the memories.
Aye. And should you require further esoteric musings or biting witticisms, don't hesitate to call. I daresay we'll come flocking.
But I get ahead of myself. As I recall, our contract remains in effect until we've escorted the Second Promise back to the capital.
I leave my sister in your capable hands. See that she returns home safely!
You've still malms to go yet, Wuk Lamat. The rite ain't over till ye find the city of gold.
I know. But if I can come this far, I can go all the way.
End of cutscene.
Optional dialogue
The Second Promise has warmed a great deal since we first met him. I daresay that wise and witty duo has been of no little influence.
I am glad to see you all remain in one piece.
Joyed though I am by this outcome, I am also eager to speak with Ketenramm while we have the chance.
Even as a shade, the Dawnservant's strength was incredible. I shudder to imagine how we might have fared without the Second Promise's support.
Naught like a bit o' hardship to see yer precious children grow into fine adults.
...I will not stand in your way.
But mark me─your victory does not afford you authority to dictate our future. We will decide what is best for Mamook. No one else.
Speak with Wuk Lamat again.
Let's go and tell the people of our victory!
Start of cutscene.Third Promise!
You brought everyone? We were just coming to you!
We did it, Miilal Ja. We proved to the Autarch that not even my father's full power could overcome the strength of our fellowship.
I knew you would. I was right to trust you.
You fulfilled your promise. Now, it's our turn.
You've shown us another way. That we can build the lives we've always wanted. Here, in our homeland, without sacrifice!
Since our new crops will come from across the salt, I suppose we will have to treat with outsiders... A-As equals, of course.
Inside or outside, we're all just people. No matter what we look like or where we're born.
When you're not used to all the color and variety, differences can feel like obstacles.
But by learning more about what makes us different, we can also find common ground in places we never expected. Something new may become something you love!
And someone you once hated might one day become your friend.
You'll never know unless you keep an open mind. And while it may feel scary, taking that first step towards understanding is always worth it.
Of course... Learning about outsiders may well help Mamook grow.
But what happens when they learn about us? About what we've done?
They will not.
For generations, our covenant has been kept secret, and so shall it remain.
The atrocities committed here were facilitated by the Autarchs. We and no one else are responsible.
For my deeds, I am prepared to forfeit my life. But I will not suffer others to be damned alongside me.
No one's being damned. And your life isn't forfeit.
The last thing this city needs is more death. Bakool Ja Ja hasn't fought this hard for this long only to lose his father.
If you truly feel responsible, be the first person to extend understanding to others on behalf of Mamook.
Your community is waiting for you─here and in Tuliyollal.
We can still make things right, my love. Choose a different side of history.
Thank you, Third Promise. Thank you for everything.
Wuk Lamat address Ketenramm after the Mamool Ja leave.
...You still owe me an explanation about that cabbage, you know.
The people of Mamook have accepted you. Merchants and menders are now available for use.
End of cutscene.
