  • Alisaie is pondering how best to make use of your reprieve from the tedium of negotiations.
  • Alisaie is in the middle of suggesting that you take some time to meet the people of Doma when Yugiri approaches with Asahi in tow. While Lord Hien deliberates over the proposed prisoner exchange, Asahi apparently wishes to take a trip around Yanxia. And who better to accompany him than the fabled Warrior of Light. Though you are sure he will be quite safe in Yugiri's company, it is plain that both would welcome your presence. You duly agree to join them, as does Alisaie, and the four of you set out for the town of Monzen.
  • Upon arriving in Monzen, Asahi is shocked to see what has become of the once-proud home of the samurai. Taking in the devastation wreaked under his sister's governance, he reaffirms his determination to put an end to the conflict between Doma and the Empire. That he might have a better view of the remnants of Doma Castle, Yugiri then leads him deeper into the ruins.
  • Doma Castle is no more, and Asahi can but lament the loss of the great keep which once graced Yanxia's skyline. Though Yugiri shares his sentiment, she observes that rebuilding such grand edifices will do little to help the people rebuild their lives. At the mention of Doma's long-suffering citizens, Asahi expresses a desire to visit Namai, recalling that the village is only a short journey away. To this end, Yugiri dutifully heads for the nearby docks to ready a boat to bear you back through the Moon Gates.
  • After a brief trip down the One River, you moor near the Eastern Ryurin Bridge only to hear a voice cry out in the distance. Asahi runs off towards the source of the commotion without hesitation and you follow in turn. Moments later, you are surprised to find Isse and Azami surrounded by a group of Red Kojin. Thankfully, the thick-shelled sellswords prove no match for you, and beat a hasty retreat. The danger having passed, you turn your attention to Isse and Azami, anxious to find out if either one has come to harm.
  • Asahi lays the blame for the Kojin's aggression squarely at the feet of the Empire, and Yugiri is quick to point out the absurdity of his position. Rather than take offense, however, he implores her to look past old allegiances that you might all work towards the common goal of peace.
  • While not under the best of circumstances, Asahi seems glad to have had the opportunity to share his thoughts on how relations between Doma and the Empire might be improved. And, regrettable though the battle was, he admits to having relished the chance to witness your martial prowess firsthand.

All right, for want of a better suggestion, what say you to a brief tour of the newly liberated Doma? I'd be interested to hear how the people are faring in their own words, and it's not as if we'll be missed here.

...Or will we?
Forename. A moment, if you would.
Ah, Yugiri. And...Asahi, was it? You have some business with Forename?
Business? No. Pleasure, my lady. I merely wished to exchange a few words with the famed slayer of gods and champion of Eorzea. It is truly an honor.
Such heartfelt admiration. One could almost forget that you're an envoy of the Empire.

Oh? Is that so strange? We may have stood on opposing sides in the past, but I see no contradiction in lauding the man who would do battle with our common enemy.


And lest you forget, this is my homeland. It would be remiss of me not to at least thank him for containing the threat posed by the Kojin's vile eikon.


Now, if I may continue─as we speak, Lord Hien deliberates over my proposal, and I would take this time to see the land I once called home.


Though Lady Yugiri is certain to be a jovial escort, the excursion would be all the more enjoyable for your company─and safer besides.
...The ambassador has the right of it. He is not like to come to harm with you at his side. Will you join us?
What will you say?

1) It would be my pleasure.
2) I am quite sure he will be safe with you, Yugiri.

In that case, I will join you as well. There is naught else to do until Lord Hien has reached his decision, and I can think of no finer way to learn more about the current state of Doma.

Come now, Forename. There is naught else for us to do until Lord Hien has reached his decision. And were we not this moment discussing how best to learn more about the current state of Doma?

It's settled, then. The four of us shall make a brief excursion through Yanxia.


Might we start at the town of Monzen? I would see what has become of Doma Castle.
Very well. If you will follow me.

Quest Accepted
Would that something could be done about these mechanical soldiers.
I'll admit, I was hoping for a more leisurely trip around Yanxia. But if it's a choice between this or listening to my brother rambling on, well...here I am.

Nay... Can this truly be Monzen, home to the cream of Doma's samurai? I had heard that Yotsuyu intended to send some few of our automata here, but only by way of warning. It should not have come to this...


Indeed, her savagery served only to incense the people and spur them to rise up in protest. It was folly to think such methods of governance could ever prove effective.


<sigh> The sooner we can begin to make amends for this senseless destruction the better. Securing supplies and support for the reconstruction effort should not prove difficult─once our nations are formally at peace, of course.
...Yes, of course. If you would have a better view of what remains of the castle, we must proceed through the ruins.
Lord Hien would often come here to gaze at the castle. He was but one of many to take inspiration from its majesty.
I don't believe for one moment that he came to see the sights of Yanxia. The question: what did he come for?
It is a travesty. A travesty. I remember the keep being so beautiful. In the light of the setting sun, one would swear it was aflame...
It is indeed a doleful spectacle. Mayhap we will rebuild it one day...when we have finished helping our people to rebuild their lives.

Spoken like a true Popularis. The needs of the people must of course come first.


Speaking of whom, would you be opposed to my seeing how they live firsthand? The village of Namai is but a short journey from here, if I'm not mistaken.
By river, yes. If you will follow me, I will ready our boat.
It has been some time since I last visited Namai. Yet Isse often visits the enclave with young Azami, so we do not want for news from the village.
This excursion has proved to be more relaxing than I expected.
Ready to cast off?
Player7 Icon.png Voiced cutscene start.
??? is shouting. ???
Get back! I'm warning you!
Someone's in trouble!
Are you all right?
Aye...
What do they want with you?
Yugiri!? And you lot, too!? I─
I don't know. We were returning from the enclave when they came at us.
It seems they won't go quietly.
And neither will we.

I will not let you harm these innocents!

I grow tired of these games. Where are our reinforcements!?

All this for two children? What do they even want with them!?

They mean to overwhelm us. See to their reinforcements. Quickly!

Now! Aim for the younglings!

Stand in front of them! We'll bear the brunt of it!

If they would call for reinforcements, then so shall we!

Hold your ground! I will try to draw away their reinforcements.

That seems to be the last of them.
You have nothing to fear, child. You are safe now.
Thank you, sir...
You saved us again. Thank you. If you're ever passing by our village, look us up. You'll always be welcome.
Thank goodness we arrived when we did.
Indeed. But what could have prompted the Red Kojin to stray so far from the Ruby Sea?
I presume these are the sellswords hired by Yotsuyu?
If so, the answer is simple: desperation. Bereft of imperial employment, they seek other means to line their coinpurses. Another sad legacy of the Empire's mismanagement.
The Empire to which you have sworn allegiance.
Must you always be so pointed? If we are to bring about lasting change, we must look beyond narrow allegiances.

You have every right to doubt me, but in time I hope you will come to see that we share a common goal.


You and yours have fought fiercely to change the Empire from without, but if we are to end the cycle of conflict, the Empire must change from within. Am I wrong?
What will you say?

1) Not about that. True reform can only come from within.
2) The Empire will never change.

I knew you would understand. You have witnessed such change firsthand, after all, during your time in Ishgard.

Never? I wonder, would you have said the same of Ishgard? ...Believe what you will, but I assure you: the Empire can change.

Player7 Icon.png Voiced cutscene end.
You know I'm grateful for your help─but what exactly was that imperial doing fighting alongside you?
Thank you so much for rescuing us. We weren't doing anything wrong, I promise.
The Red Kojin's presence here does not bode well. We must inform Lord Hien.
Quite the swordsman, isn't he? I wonder, did the Empire train him to kill before or after appointing him ambassador...

Dear me... I had hoped to convey my views on our nations' shared hopes under more peaceable circumstances.


Yet this regrettable little interlude did afford me a chance to see the famed hero of Eorzea in action, and few imperial soldiers can say that. At least, few who lived to tell the tale.
Quest Complete

You'll begin alongside Yugiri Mistwalker (NIN), Alisaie (RDM), Asahi sas Brutus (SAM), and Isse against four Softshell of the Red and a Slickshell Captain. Yugiri and Alisaie will each take two of the Softshells while Asahi focuses on the captain. Work on the softshells as best you can, and try to keep them away from Isse, who is shielding Azami. As the fight goes on more Softshell of the Red will spawn and approach Isse. Take them out ASAP, despite having the same name they are nowhere near as sturdy as the ones attacking your companions. The Slickshell Captain will also change how he casts Water III, now being a stack mechanic centered on Isse that Asahi will help you soak. He will also cast Blizzard III, marking you with an icon and leaving an ice puddle on the ground when it goes off, so take it away from Isse and your other allies. A little later in the fight, Yugiri will cast Shadowspawn, spawning two more helpers. One will go to help Alisae, while the other will assist Asahi on the captain and also help soak further Water IIIs. Continue to take out the remaining adds and any reinforcements (Asahi will tank some of them at this point) before finally piling onto the captain. Once they are all defeated the fight will end.
