'''Meffrid:''' Thank you for your help in Ala Gannha. I'll admit that I didn't have high hopes when we first set out, but the results speak for themselves. Well done!
'''M'naago:''' The tale of our victory in East End will be known to every Ala Mhigan from the Fringes to the Peaks when I am through. You'll see!
===Accepting the Quest===
'''Conrad:''' Owing to the efforts of you all, we have accomplished a great deal in a short time. The Resistance thanks you for your service, Scions.
'''Alphinaud:''' I see operations here have been proceeding apace in my absence.
'''Alisaie:''' Welcome back, Brother dearest. I take it your efforts to gather new recruits were successful.
'''Alphinaud:''' Indeed. There were several amongst the Scions' ranks that were quite eager to take part in our joint endeavor with the Resistance, whom I am come to present.
'''Arenvald:''' Commander Kemp, if I may! My name...my name is Arenvald Lentinus. A...a half-breed, as you can doubtless tell.
'''Arenvald:''' I'm here to fight for a free Ala Mhigo. For an Ala Mhigo where women like my mother are never made to suffer. I pray you grant me this honor.
'''Conrad:''' ...You are a trueborn son of Gyr Abania, same as me. This is not my honor to grant, but yours to freely take. Welcome, brother.
'''Conrad:''' With our swelling ranks, and the aid of the Eorzean Alliance and the Scions of the Seventh Dawn, I believe we will soon be in a position to seize the initiative.
'''Conrad:''' Once our new recruits have received sufficient training, I will propose to General Aldynn that we draw up plans for an assault on Castellum Velodyna.
'''M'Naago:''' Then, in the meantime, we will make what preparations we can!

'''Imperial Tribunus Militum:''' Alliance forces have occupied Castrum Oriens and taken up positions along the length of the Wall. Our patrols have engaged their reconnaissance parties on sight, but there have been no significant exchanges... 
'''Imperial Tribunus Militum:''' Save one. A unit tasked with field-testing prototype magitek weapons was attacked. The weapons were destroyed, with the unit sustaining near-total casualties.
'''Zenos yae Galvus:''' ...Near-total? Go on.
'''Imperial Pilus Prior:''' My lord, there was but a single survivor from the unit in question, which falls under my command.
'''Imperial Pilus Prior:''' According to his report, they were ambushed by a contingent of Eorzean Alliance regulars, abetted by Resistance insurgents.
'''Zenos yae Galvus:''' Hm. A simple ambush, and only one survivor. A fine day's work.
'''Zenos yae Galvus:''' The stubbornness to survive is not without worth... He may live. However, the XIIth is no place for the weak.
'''Imperial Pilus Prior:''' He shall be relegated at once, my lord. As you say, the XIIth is no place for cowards who count their lives more precious than the cause.
'''Zenos yae Galvus:''' Indeed, indeed. We have no need of cowards...
'''Imperial Pilus Prior:''' M-My lord, I...
'''Zenos yae Galvus:''' Cowards who defer critical missions to their subordinates—who hide within the castra, never meeting their prey in battle, never staring into the whites of their eyes.
'''Zenos yae Galvus:''' Why, when confronted with a heretofore unknown eikon, did we surrender the Wall to the Alliance?
'''Zenos yae Galvus:''' Because my honored father, in his infinite wisdom, has not seen fit to grant us leave to march on their lands.
'''Zenos yae Galvus:''' Accordingly, we have extended an invitation to our neighbors.
Gyr Abania is where we shall host them—the field upon which we shall enjoy the sport of kings.
'''Zenos yae Galvus:''' Patience is paramount. Cornered animals may have spirit, but they are ultimately predictable, and very poor sport. But if one dangles the promise of freedom before them, while nipping at their heels to stoke their passion, then things become interesting.
'''Zenos yae Galvus:''' It is a delicate dance...and one which asks much of my hounds.
'''Zenos yae Galvus:''' And so I put the question to you, my fellow huntsmen: how shall we deal with these savages?
'''Fordola:''' My lord, I have a proposal!
'''Imperial Tribunus Militum:''' Silence, Ala Mhigan! You do forget yourself!
'''Imperial Tribunus Militum:''' Only by the grace of Lord van Baelsar were you afforded a place here—and that in name alone. We have no need of your "proposals", savage.
'''Fordola:''' Grr...
'''Zenos yae Galvus:''' This "savage" yearns to hunt her own...The floor is yours, Commander.
'''Fordola:''' Thank you, my lord.
====Optional====
'''Conrad:''' I feared it would take longer to rouse the people to action after the disaster at the Wall, but it seems our countrymen are not so easily discouraged. Change is on the horizon, my friends.
'''Meffrid:''' We won't have much time to train the new recruits, but we'll make the most of it. The Resistance will need every able–bodied man and woman in the field if we're going to take Velodyna.
'''Lyse:''' It's all happening so fast... Isn't it exciting!?
'''Alphinaud:''' Arenvald is not much older than I am. We would often chat about this and that whenever I paid a visit to the Waking Sands. I knew he had strong feelings about Ala Mhigo and the occupation, but mayhap I underestimated his passion...
'''Alisaie:''' M'naago did well to spread wordy of our victory in East End. Hardly a day goes by without some would–be recruit arriving, inspired by the tale.
'''Arenvald:''' For a long time, I struggled to make sense of that day at the Waking Sands. Why I survived when A'aba and Aulie didn't. Not anymore.
'''J'moldva:''' Long ago did I resolve never again to take up sword or spear—at first for sport, and then entirely. But a chance encounter with young Arenvald served to remind me that not all battles are as empty as those fought upon the bloodsands.
'''V'mah:''' Alphinaud asked for volunteers, so here I am. First Ishgard, now Ala Mhigo, eh? No rest for the righteous!
====Optional, in infirmary====
'''Krile:''' Been to the Peaks and back, have you? Glad to see you're in good health.
'''Y'shtola:''' I am told you have been busy. As have we, lest you wonder. None here shall perish for want of proper treatment.
===Speaking with M'naago===
'''M'Naago:''' Right, then. I've got duties to attend to.
'''Alphinaud:''' Mayhap we could assist you with said duties? We are here to help, after all.
'''Alphinaud:''' The three of you have been busy, so I will understand if you require time to rest. If ''not'', however, it would seem sensible to assist our allies with their preparation.
'''M'Naago:''' We'd be grateful for any and all help you can offer. If you ask around, I guarantee you won't want for work.
====Optional, post-completion dialog====
'''Meffrid:''' Thank you for your help in Ala Gannha. I'll admit that I didn't have high hopes when we first set out, but the results speak for themselves. Well done!

Rewards

Choose one of the following options:

Steps

Journal

  • Conrad wishes to thank you for all you have done in such a short time.
  • In the midst of your meeting with Commander Kemp, Alphinaud arrives with several other Scions of the Seventh Dawn who have apparently expressed a desire to fight for the Ala Mhigan Resistance, including one Arenvald Lentius, whom you recall from your first days in the Waking Sands. Conrad welcomes his new allies warmly, and states that when the other new recruits have received sufficient training, he will propose a joint assault on Castellum Velodyna to General Aldynn.
  • M'naago, like many of the Resistance, is grateful for your assistance thus far. However, there is no shortage of work to be done, and she and the others should be glad if you were to help hasten the completion of their preparations.
