Journal

• Tierney believes you are ready to join a guildhest.

• Guildhests are special operations organized by Adventurers' Guilds and overseen by battlewardens. To learn more about what guildhests entail, speak with Battlewarden Ribald.

• Battlewarden Ribald explains that guildhests will test your ability to work with others to achieve a common goal. Unless you are content to conduct your adventures forever alone, it may be in your best interests to participate in these operations at least once.

Dialogue

Tierney: Should you be interested in a challenge quite unlike your average levequest, you might consider joining a guildhest.
Tierney: If you wish to know more, pray speak with Battlewarden Ribald outside yonder tent. I will inform him of your success against the anoles so that there are no doubts as to your abilities

Speaking to Ribald

Ribald: I was told a stalwart adventurer would be along shortly. I take it that is you? Then permit me to tell you about our current operations.
Ribald: Wait... Might this be your first time participating in a guildhest? I remember my first hest. It was the night of my twentieth nameday. My fellow guildmates invited me to join them in the slaying of a family of peistes who were stealing chocobo eggs from Bentbranch Meadows.
Ribald: The moment we arrived, one of the terrible beasts immediately turned to me and charged. The thing was thrice my size and had already maimed several chocobokeeps.
Ribald: There was no way I could win, so I simply froze and waited for the end. But that was when I remembered that I was not alone. My friends rallied around me, and together we defeated the peistes! That, my friend, is what a guildhest is truly about.
Ribald: What say you, friend? Care to experience a hest for yourself?
