Journal

• An adventurer enjoys a certain ill repute and flies no colors. In a time of simmering hostility, Cailean sees this as a distinct advantage in spycraft.

• The Garlean Empire is making a long arm across the border from Mor Dhona, stirring the grass around Monument Tower. Seek traces of Garlemald in three locations, and drive away any Garleans you encounter.

• Your vigilance has driven out all the Garleans in the area without a confrontation between the forces of Ishgard and Garlemald. Report to Pierremons that the work is done and no blood was shed.

• Pierremons is aghast at how thick the Garleans are upon the ground. All evidence points to a Garlean outpost in Mor Dhona, and even an adventurer may find it no easy place to escape deadly scrutiny...

Dialogue

Accepting the Quest

Cailean: I say, are you the—Forgive me, I am Cailean, a bannerman of House Haillenarte. Are you not the adventurer who proved our liege lord's innocence?
Cailean: Ah, it is you. You are forged of metal true, miss/sir, and I rejoice to meet you, for there is a delicate mission that only a woman/man most steadfast may be trusted with.
Cailean: From high upon Monument Tower, we keep watch over the doings of the Garlean outpost. They have been far too active for our hearts' ease lately, and we must discourage these forays without resorting to outright hostility.
Cailean: Make a round of the three hot spots and look for any trace of the Garleans. Ser Pierremons awaits at the Aurum Vale for your report. The speed of the Fury to you, and Her ruth as well.

Searching for signs of Garleans

Garlean-like Man: You ask if I'm a soldier of Garlemald? Why, this savage land is outside the fold of the Empire! 'Twould be strange indeed for you to see a Garlean here. You doubt me? I care not!
/doubt
Garlean-like Man: Why would a soldier of Garlemald venture into enemy territory? An enemy foolish as well as barbaric, for none can resist our—what I mean to say is the mighty Garl—damn it, retreat, retreat!

Reporting to Pierremons

Pierremons: What? All three? You found Garleans at all three locations?
Pierremons: We'd espied them slipping over the border from Mor Dhona to survey something, but... These forays must be more frequent than we thought.
Pierremons: We must increase patrols in the area. I big you beware, adventurer, if you footloose ways lead you to Mor Dhona. Return safely, and be our eyes in the wildness again.
