Journal
- Kupli Kuki is wringing his pom-pom trying to figure out where his companion went.
- Kupli Kuki uses his powers of deduction to determine that the last possible refuge for his lost moogle friend is to the south. However, since that area is just bound to be overflowing with wild beasts, he asks you to go ahead of the two moogles and look for any evidence of his lost companion before they risk their lives in an effortless search. Search Hengr's Crucible for any signs of the nervous moogle.
- You search the area and you find an errant kupo nut and a few feathers that look like they came from a bird of significant size. It would be a shame if a moogle was left alone without his kupo nuts, so return the evidence to Kupli Kuki and see what he has to say about his lost partner.
- Kupli Kuki examines the kupo nut and feathers, guessing that the most likely occurrence was that his poor companion was kidnapped by one of the many large birds soaring the skies in the area. Follow him to where the birds build their nests and see if he has any insight as to where the other moogle may be.
- You meet up with the two moogles, and the area is teeming with giant birds that match the feathers you found previously. Kupli Kuki asks you to help them search for their friend before one of the birds gets hungry and does something terrible to the moogle.
- After searching every nook and cranny of the area, you find the moogle cowering in a nest, apparently in an attempt to blend in with the many eggs. He is relieved that he was able to avoid becoming fodder for the birds, and returns to reunite with his Twelveswood companions.
- All three moogles have been reunited at last, and they can finally move on from this confusing episode to meet their moogle brethren in Moghome. Aid them in their journey to the Churning Mists for what is sure to be a party to remember.
Dialogue
Accepting the Quest
Kupli Kuki: If I can say one thing about my companion, it's that he's quite adept at fleeing, kupo! Hmmm... If it were me running, I'd go...to the south! Kupli Kuki: But, no doubt that area is just crawling with dreadful creatures. Adventurer, we need you to look for any signs he was there, or for any clues as to where he may have ran to. If you find something, then it may be worth braving this region's cruel monsters.
Optional Dialogue
Moofy Moogle: Oh... Where did he wander off to, kupo?
Kupli Kuki: Bring any clues you find right back here, and we can continue our search when you return, kupo!
Bringing the clues to Kupli Kuki
Kupli Kuki: Ah, you're back at last! Did you find any sign of our friend, kupo? <Hand Over Kupo Nut, Black Feather> Kupli Kuki: Hmm...some black feathers...and a kupo nut! This is one of the presents we brought for Moghome, kupo! Kupli Kuki: Just as I thought, he must've gone south! But, just how far south? It's hard to imagine him running too far without resting his wings...
Moofy Moogle: Ah hah! These black feathers must belong to the giant bird that attacked. That means the bird might have flown off with the poor moogle...
Kupli Kuki: We have to help him before he's eaten, or worse! Hurry, adventurer, we need to follow the bird's trail, kupo!
Speaking with Kupo Kuki at the Nidifice
Kupli Kuki: Look, there's a whole flock of those birds here. If indeed our companion was kidnapped, he's like to be around here. Let's split up and look for him, kupo!
Optional Dialogue
Moofy Moogle: This just keeps getting worse and worse... I hope he's okay, kupo...
Kupli Kuki: I hope he's okay... Hurry and find him before something terrible happens, kupo!
Searching for the motioning moogle
Motioning Moogle: I am the egg... Be the egg, kupopo... Eggs don't get eaten, no they don't... Be the egg... Motioning Moogle: ...Oh no! I've been found out, kupopo! Don't...don't eat me─I'm so stringy, skin and bones... Motioning Moogle: ...Oh, you're not one of those nasty birds!? Thank heavens, I thought I was done for! Good thing I wasn't─moogles are notoriously lacking in flavor, kupo. Motioning Moogle: You mean the others have come looking for me? I knew they wouldn't leave me here, kupo! I'll return to them at once!
Optional Dialogue
Motioning Moogle: That was too close! I'll never eat another egg again, kupo...
Moofy Moogle: You found him! I would've never thought to pretend to be an egg─in fact, chances are I'd end up eating it, kupo!
Reporting to Kupli Kuki
Kupli Kuki: Everyone's together at last, kupo! Kupli Kuki: We can finally make our way to Moghome! I've grown quite tired of all these flying monstrosities, kupo!
