Walkthrough

Note: In order to start this quest, you must first be on the Crossroads of Time Mission (obtained after completing A Nation on the Brink).

• You must zone and wait one game day after completing In a Haze of Glory in order to start this quest.
• Speak to Rholont (E-7) in Southern San d'Oria (S) for a cutscene.
• Gather the following three key items:
  • Ronfaure maple syrup: obtained randomly by logging in East Ronfaure (S).
    • The next quest also requires logging, therefore it's recommended to purchase multiple Hatchets.
  • Long-life biscuits: obtained by examining the Tree Hollow directly behind Rholont.
  • Flask of Kingdom water: obtained by examining the Well west of Rholont.
• Speak to Rholont to receive the Biscuit a la Rholont.
• Go to Jugner Forest (S) and examine the Felled Trees at western (G-7).
  • Fastest way to get here is to Recall-Jugner; if that's not available, run North then NW from the Jugner Forest (S) Survival Guide warp.
• Go to Vunkerl Inlet (S) (the Campaign warp is closer than the Survival Guide to your first destination) and examine two Toppled Cressets in the correct order:
  • First, examine the Toppled Cresset at (I-8) for a short cutscene leading you west.
  • Next, examine the second Toppled Cresset at (F-9)/(F-8) for another short cutscene leading you south.
• Examine the Underbrush at (F-13) for a third cutscene. Examine it again to spawn Madthrasher Zradbodd.
  • Madthrasher Zradbodd is an Orc BLM who has a large amount of Fastcast. He likes to spam Tier IV elemental and tier III elemental -ga spells, as well as Sleepga and Dispellga.
  • Having a Blue Mage to stun the area of effect spells is very handy if you're below i119.
• After defeating Madthrasher Zradbodd, check the Underbrush again for a message telling you to go to Pashhow Marshlands (S).
  • You will have to defeat the NM again if you zone without getting this message!
• Go to Pashhow Marshlands (S) at (G-6) and examine the Shimmering Pondweed for a cutscene that completes the quest.
  • The spot you are looking for within (G-6) will be in the northwest corner of the grid.
    • Using the Campaign teleport will most likely be your fastest way here.
    • The next closest method is teleporting to the Survival Guide in Rolanberry Fields (S), which will put you right at the top zone line for Pashhow Marshlands (S).
