Walkthrough
There are 2 distinct paths to this mission and they can be done in either order.
Emerald Waters (San d'Oria Path)
Vicissitudes
- Zone into Northern San d'Oria for a cutscene. Head to the Cathedral and speak with Arnau.
- Speak with Chasalvige, who is in the Cathedral's Manuscript room.
Descendants of a Line Lost
- Head to Carpenter's Landing and speak with Guilloud at (H-10) to spawn the NM Overgrown Ivy. This is a Malboro-type mob and can use Hundred Fists. You may need some high level help to defeat it if you are lower leveled.
- Speak with Guilloud again after defeating Overgrown Ivy.
Louverance
- Speak with Hinaree at (B-6) in Southern San d'Oria for a cutscene to complete the San d'Oria path.
Memories of a Maiden (Windurst Path)
Comedy Of Errors, (Act I)
- Zone into Windurst Waters for a cutscene.
- Speak to Ohbiru-Dohbiru at (J-9) inside the Rhinostery.
- Speak with Yoran-Oran at (E-5) in Windurst Walls. Yoran-Oran offers other quests unrelated to this mission so you may need to speak with him multiple times to get the right cutscene.
- Speak with Kyume-Romeh at (F-10) in Windurst Waters. He is in the Tavern.
Comedy of Errors, (Act II)
- Head to (E-7) in Windurst Waters and speak with Honoi-Gomoi to recieve the Key Item:Cracked Mimeo Mirror
- Head all the way back to Windurst Walls and speak with Yoran-Oran again.
- Travel to (K-8) in Attohwa Chasm and look for a spot marked as "Loose Sand".
- Clicking the Loose Sand spawns an NM Antlion called Lioumere. After it uses a weaponskill (like Sandblast or Sandtrap), it will return to the Loose Sand and recover alll its HP. Sleep, Bind, Stun, Gravity and a multitude of other Enfeebles will work on it to prevent it from returning to the Loose Sand.
- After Lioumere is defeated check the Loose Sand to get the Key Item:Mimeo Jewel
- After recieving the Jewel, you have exactly 1 earth hour to climb to the top of Parradamo Tor and reach the Cradle of Rebirth before the jewel breaks. If that happens, you will need to return to the Loose Sand and obtain another Mimeo Jewel. This can be quite frustrating for a lot of players because the path to the top is not clearly defined and falling off may mean 30 minutes or more of lost progress. This guide is quite helpful if you are having trouble.
- Once you reach the top with your jewel (and sanity!) intact, check the Cradle of Rebirth to obtain 3 Key Items: Mimeo Feather, Second Mimeo Feather, and Third Mimeo Feather.
Exit Stage Left
- Return to Yoran-Oran in Windurst Walls once again.
- Speak with Yujuju at (M-6) in Port Windurst.
- Head to the Opistery in Windurst Waters and speak with Tosuka-Porika.
- Head back and talk to Yoran-Oran one final time to complete the Windurst path.
After both paths have been completed, head to the Metalworks and talk to Cid to complete the mission.
