※This quest is available for a limited time only."
1,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_SEQ_01","The Starlight Celebration once again descends upon Gridania, with Amh Garanjy leading the festivities. This year, she plans to incorporate traditional Ishgardian choral singing, with presents distributed to children following the performance. Maisenta of Black Rabbit Traders has kindly offered to secure the services of a band of musicians, but little has been heard from her since. Amh Garanjy asks that you visit Maisenta at her stall to ascertain whether the concert preparations are proceeding as planned or have been beset by unforeseen difficulties.

※Please note that you will be unable to complete this quest after the seasonal event has ended. For details, please check the Lodestone."
2,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_SEQ_02","Thankfully, it soon becomes clear that Maisenta has not forgotten about her promise to assist with the Starlight Celebration. On the other hand, she appears to have serious reservations about discussing the matter openly, and requests that the conversation be taken to a more secluded location."
3,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_SEQ_03","Maisenta introduces you to the Homunculi, the musicians who will be gracing the Starlight Celebration. As talented as they are, their lack of familiarity with Ishgardian choral music led them to seek the aid of a composer, rather than attempt to write the songs themselves. Unfortunately for them, the manuscripts they received state that two female and two male singers are required, with highly specific─not to mention extremely cryptic─instructions as to the tone of their voices. Since there is little time to search for experienced female vocalists, it is decided that Maisenta and Amh Garanjy will fill the roles, with Augustiniel of the Homunculi assigned as one of the two males. In addition to choosing members for the choir, it seems that Maisenta has need of someone to collect a conductor's baton from the Carpenters' Guild and an order of choir surplices from the Weavers' Guild. Since Maisenta and the Homunculi are otherwise engaged, you are left as the only available candidate for the task."
4,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_SEQ_04","Timbermaster Beatin has prepared an exquisitely whittled conductor's baton for use in the concert, while Redolent Rose of the Weavers' Guild has gone above and beyond the call of duty by producing even more choir surplices than requested. Both guildmasters reveal that Maisenta appears to have an excess of coin at her disposal, and has no qualms about investing it in her precious Homunculi. With the expensive wares safely in your possession, you make for Mih Khetto's Amphitheatre."
5,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_SEQ_05","Amh Garanjy expresses bemusement when you arrive to deliver the conductor's baton and choir surplices, and it soon becomes clear that Maisenta has neglected to share her plans with the Starlight celebrant. When Maisenta and the Homunculi arrive, they have another surprise in store for Amh Garanjy: She has been selected─without her knowledge─as a member of the choir. Maisenta pays little heed to Amh Garanjy's initial reluctance and quickly moves on to the topic of the final member. The discussion is over almost as soon as it begins with the arrival of Baenfaeld, a hulking Roegadyn with a voice so deep one might mistake it for the lowing of an immense aurochs. Thankfully, he agrees to join the choir with only minimal persuasion required. Now that all four members have been chosen, Amh Garanjy reminds the group that they still have a conductor's baton without an owner. Once again, you demonstrate a knack for being in the wrong place at the wrong time, and find yourself involuntarily volunteered for the role of directing the performance."

133,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_REDOLENTROSE_000_102","The choir surplices? Not the most challenging request the guild has received, but a welcome change from all the plebeians asking us to add arse flaps to their culottes."
134,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_REDOLENTROSE_000_103","Another pleasant surprise was the amount Maisenta was willing to pay for them. So generous was she that I thought it only fair to include a few more. Knowing her, she will find a way to pitch them to festival-goers, so any surplus surplices could be sold on for a profit."
135,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_REDOLENTROSE_000_104","This could even mark the beginning of a very lucrative venture for Black Rabbit Traders and the Weavers' Guild."

137,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_REDOLENTROSE_000_106","Was I speaking to myself when I told you to “deliver these garments posthaste?” No? I didn't think so. Now, off you go!"
138,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_AMHGARANJY_000_110","You're back! I was considering sending out a search party for you too! Is everything all right?"
139,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_AMHGARANJY_000_111","Unless I am very much mistaken, these look remarkably like a conductor's wand and some sort of smocks. This may seem like an odd question, but...why are you giving these to me?"
140,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_MAISENTA_000_112","(-???-)Did I forget to tell you? Not to worry. All will become clear once you've changed into your surplice and are ready to rehearse."
141,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_AMHGARANJY_000_113","Rehearse? But I don't remember agreeing to sing! And I'm fairly certain you never even asked me!"
142,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_MAISENTA_000_114","Sorry, dear. Change of plans. To be honest, knowing how committed you are to the Starlight Celebration, it never occurred to me that you might be opposed to the idea."
143,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_AMHGARANJY_000_115","Well, we cannot disappoint the little ones... I suppose it is only meet that I at least try."

145,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_MAISENTA_000_116","If it makes you feel any better, I will be singing too. Bear in mind that I lack your experience when it comes to entertaining the masses, so if there is anyone who should be nervous, it's me."
146,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_MAISENTA_000_117","Besides, there's no time for dilly-dallying. We still have to find a man with a voice “deep and cavernous as the bowels of the earth.”"
147,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_BAENFAELD_000_118","Are these the musicians? We'd better start checking the amphitheatre's...what did you call 'em? ...Accuse sticks? No, that don't sound right..."

149,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_BAENFAELD_000_120","Aye, and a member of the Adventurers' Guild besides. Every year, they give me leave to help out with the festival."

151,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_MAISENTA_000_122","My thoughts exactly. Who could have guessed that the perfect candidate was under our noses─figuratively speaking, of course─this whole time. How would you like to join our choir?"
152,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_BAENFAELD_000_123","I don't see why not. When it comes to bein' big and loud, no one does it better than me!"
153,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_AUGUSTINIEL_000_124","Ha ha! Glad to hear! While I would normally balk at sharing my stage with rank amateurs, I am willing to make an exception. Obviously, none of you can even hope to reach my standards, but with sufficient practice, we should be able to approach “adequate” or even “not displeasing.”"
154,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_MAISENTA_000_125","As for Oscarlet and Orselfaux, I have something else in mind. While you may not be serenading us with your angelic vocals, you will instead be blessing the children with the presents I have prepared."
155,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_MAISENTA_000_126","I will make sure they keep their hands off of the children's mummies, no matter how “yummy” they might be. If the Homunculi can limit their flirtations to a well-timed wink here and a cheeky smile there, we'll have them eating out of our hands, without any “lasting repercussions.”"
156,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_AMHGARANJY_000_127","Ummm...I have a question. Who is this conductor's stick for?"
157,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_MAISENTA_000_128","You catch on quickly, don't you? I'm not asking you to do this entirely from the goodness of your heart. I will see to it that you are appropriately remunerated. In some form."
158,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_MAISENTA_000_129","I would say compared to the four members of the choir, you have the easy job. Judging from what I've seen at other concerts, you just need to look the part and wave the baton a bit. Simple."
159,"TEXT_FESXMS401_03173_BAENFAELD_000_130","Rather you than me, friend. I wouldn't know where to start! I'm much more comfortable bellowin' away to me heart's content. Anyway, let me know when you're ready for some conductin'."
