- Hancock seems to be quite pleased with himself.
- Speak with Hancock.
- Speak with Alphinaud.
There is oh so much more I could speak of─the soothing waters of the onsen, the ephemeral delights of the pleasure district─but you are doubtless still weary from your long sea voyage.
Let us retire to the company offices.

So that building's filled with Garleans...
|
Compared to the Hingan architecture, this is drab and uninspired. Or perhaps I've had my fill of Garlean aesthetics, such as they are.
|
Some might deem it unwise to loiter outside the gates of the consulate of a hostile empire.

|
Oh, this place takes me back! It reminds me of the workshop of an Ul'dahn lapidary I once served!
|
I'm not sure how I imagined our time in the Far East unfolding, but it definitely didn't involve Ul'dahns. And especially not these Ul'dahns. Still...whatever works, right?

He was not exaggerating when he spoke of their wards' efficacy. Whoever wove them did so with consummate skill...
