10TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_SEQ_00Baderon has a task for a trusted adventurer.
21TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_SEQ_01According to Baderon, the missive intended for Ahtzapfyn is written in Sahagin script, and details plans for the destruction of the *Victory*. Though the message mentions a diversionary strike on Swiftperch, the Wench's proprietor seems convinced that the Serpent Reavers are lying, and that the struggling settlement is their true target. Take Baderon's hastily translated note and deliver it to Commodore Reyner at the Coral Tower.
32TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_SEQ_02Though Reyner is grateful for Baderon's warning, he believes Swiftperch is but one of several settlements which the Serpent Raiders could be planning to attack. While the commodore debates where to deploy his forces, a Yellowjacket arrives bearing word that South Tidegate is being assaulted by the Sahagin. Lacking the resources to defend both locations, Reyner instructs you to make haste to Swiftperch and speak with the Yellowjacket, Ryssfloh.
43TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_SEQ_03With the help of the Yellowjackets, you defeat the marauding Serpent Reavers and spare the residents of Swiftperch a fate worse than death.
54TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_SEQ_04According to Y'shtola, the Sahagin and their pirate allies were being manipulated by a masked mage she calls an “Ascian.” Though much remains shrouded in mystery, not least the strange black crystal you discovered near the mage's remains, the truth behind the kidnappings has finally come to light. Return to the Coral Tower and report to Commodore Reyner.
65TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_SEQ_05Your meeting with Commodore Reyner is interrupted by the appearance of Admiral Merlwyb, who commends you for your brave deeds. In recognition of your services to Limsa Lominsa, she insists that you attend a forthcoming banquet as her honored guest. Proud and daunted in equal measure, you look forward to what promises to be a memorable occasion.

4948TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BADERON_050_1Good to 'ave ye aboard, lass. Now then...where to start?
5049TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BADERON_000_1Back when I was younger an' nastier, I earned me livin' as a sellsword. In that business, if ye wanted to know what yer enemy was up to, you 'ad to learn to read the orders ye prised from the cold dead 'ands of 'is mates. That's 'ow I came to know 'ow to read yer message.
5150TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BADERON_000_2Truth be told, the script was only too bloody familiar. Them's *Sahagin* letters, lass. An' I should know─I've gutted more fishback messengers than I can count.
5251TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BADERON_000_3It gets worse, though... The plan to blow up the *Victory* is all in 'ere, right down to the fine details.
5352TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BADERON_000_4Looks like they meant to raise eight kinds of 'ell in western La Noscea, then 'it the Maelstrom's new flagship in the confusion.
5453TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BADERON_000_5The point bein', the attack on the *Victory* weren't the act of a few rebellious pirates─'twas a key part o' some canny bastard's grand plan.
5554TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BADERON_000_6But if I'm readin' this aright, the attack itself came much too early. I'll wager they panicked when they saw ye was on to 'em, rushed in to do the job, an' buggered it up.
5655TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BADERON_000_7Hmmm... Them tattoo-faced bastards as they say was payin' Ahtbyrm's old man, they're with the Serpent Reavers, right? ...But none o' their crew was there, was they? Did they 'ave summat better to do, or what?
5756TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BADERON_000_8...Seven 'ells! I've got it all backwards! That mess at the *Victory*─*that* was meant to be the bloody distraction!
5857TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BADERON_000_9The fishbacks ain't interested in the Maelstrom's baby! They're after *men*, just like they've always been. They're sendin' their pirate lackeys after a civilian target.
5958TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BADERON_000_10This bit about raisin' 'ell in western La Noscea...that's where it'll be. Summat tells me Swiftperch is about to get 'it, an' 'it 'ard!
6059TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BADERON_000_11'Ere's a rough translation o' the message.
6160TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BADERON_000_12Take it to Commodore Reyner at the Coral Tower, an' tell 'im 'e's in fer a busy day.
6261TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BADERON_000_13Oh, an' give 'im an 'and, eh? Ye can be damn sure 'e'll need one.
6362TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_20Yes, I am Reyner. Ah, you must be the adventurer whose name seems to be on everyone's lips.
6463TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_21You are to be commended for your part in thwarting the plot to destroy the *Victory*. Now, what can I do for you this day?
6564TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_22You bear an urgent message from Baderon? Why do I get the feeling that my hopes for a quiet evening are about to be cruelly dashed? Tell me, what is afoot?
6665TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_30An assault on Swiftperch!? But we've seen nothing to suggest the Serpent Reavers are massing for an attack.
6766TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_31Even so, it would be foolish to discount the possibility─Baderon is rarely wrong about such matters.
6867TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_32I will marshal the Yellowjackets for battle immediately.
6968TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_33The only question is where to send them. While I concur with Baderon's assessment that the attack on the Drydocks was intended as a diversion, Swiftperch is but one of several possible targets for the main thrust.
7069TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_YELLOWJACKET_000_34Commodore, sir!
7170TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_35Report.
7271TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_YELLOWJACKET_000_36It's the Sahagin, sir! They've mounted a large-scale assault on South Tidegate, and threaten to overwhelm our defenses within the day. The garrison requests immediate reinforcements.
7372TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_37By the Navigator... It seems my decision has been made for me.
7473TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_38Muster the troops and give the order to march.
7574TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_39Aye, the Serpent Reavers are in league with the Sahagin.
7675TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_40...Which means there is every chance this assault on Tidegate may yet prove to be another feint. The fact remains, however, that we can ill afford to ignore it. And that leaves Swiftperch vulnerable to those pirate traitors.
7776TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_41It is at times such as these that I wish the Warriors of Light yet walked among us. But wishes will avail us naught. , *you* must serve in their absence. Make for Swiftperch with all haste and lend your strength to the squads I can spare for the settlement's defense.
7877TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_RYSSFLOH_000_45Commodore Reyner sent word we'd be getting reinforcements, but I didn't expect him to send you! You certainly look like you've seen your share of action, though─you bear little resemblance to the wide-eyed whelp I met fresh off the ferry.
7978TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_RYSSFLOH_000_46In any case, do you know what you're fighting for here? This place─Swiftperch─it was rebuilt by folk who stood strong in the face of every hardship the Calamity threw their way.
8079TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_RYSSFLOH_000_47And we're not about to let some fish-fancying scum claim the honor of being the ones who finally broke their spirits. Don't give those pirate bastards one bloody ilm, you hear me?
8180TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_Q1_000_1Duty calls. Do you wish to proceed with “Feint and Strike”?
8281TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_A1_000_1Yes
8382TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_A1_000_2No
8483TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_GLAZRAEL_000_50Here they come!
8584TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_DECKMAN_000_51'Ere now, I thought all them Yellowjacket worms was meant to be busy. That useless scrag ain't followed the plan, 'as 'e?
8685TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_HELMSMAN_000_52Now what? Pull back and wait for our Sahagin brothers?
8786TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BAENRYSS_000_53Piss on that! We ain't turnin' back empty-handed!
8887TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BAENRYSS_000_54Remember, no killin' the smallfolk, or it'll be *your* blood what stains Lord Leviathan's altars!
8988TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BAENRYSS_000_55The Yellowbellies ye can butcher at will! Them dirt-eatin' slugs'll be crushed under the full might o' the Serpent Reavers!
9089TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_RYSSFLOH_000_56Seems Swiftperch was the main target after all, eh?
9190TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_RYSSFLOH_000_57Squads One and Two, protect the townsfolk! Squad Three, you're our rear guard!
9291TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_RYSSFLOH_000_58The rest of you─we meet their charge where we stand! Let us bear the commodore word of our victory, or no word at all!
9392TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_YELLOWJACKETS_000_58(-Yellowjacket Infantry-)For Limsa Lominsa!
9493TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_BAENRYSS_000_59Rargh! I'll gut all you Yellowbellies an' dance on yer gizzards!
9594TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_RYSSFLOH_000_70Well fought─the Reavers are beaten and scattered.
9695TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_RYSSFLOH_000_71I'll take some men and hunt down the stragglers. Oh, but there may be more of them lurking about, so don't let your guard down just yet.
9796TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_MASKEDMAGUS_000_72The source of her strength becomes clear...
9897TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_MASKEDMAGUS_000_73You may have bested the golem, but you will not fare so well this day.
9998TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_MASKEDMAGUS_000_74**O mournful voice of creation! Send unto me a creature of the abyss, my thrall to command, that I may smite mine enemies!
10099TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_MASKEDMAGUS_000_75Your very being imperils the plan. You cannot be suffered to live.
101100TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_MASKEDMAGUS_000_80Unnngh... That the wisdom of the Paragons should be brought low...by mere mortals...
102101TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_YSHTOLA_000_81“Paragons,” did he say? Then it is as I feared.
103102TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_YSHTOLA_000_82They are known as the Bringers of Chaos...or *Ascians*, to give them their proper name.
104103TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_YSHTOLA_000_83It would seem our suspicions were correct─it is they who have been manipulating the beast tribes.
105104TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_YSHTOLA_000_84Pardon? You would know if we Sharlayans have encountered Ascians before? ...I have never spoken to you of my homeland. How did you know whence I hail?
106105TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_YSHTOLA_000_85Wait. I do begin to see. You have been blessed with a special gift.
107106TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_RYSSFLOH_000_86Are you all right, lass!? If I'd known a mean bugger like that was hiding in the bushes, I would've left a squad or six to keep you company.
108107TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_RYSSFLOH_000_87Well, at least now we can call this kidnapping investigation to a close. Those Reavers were the ones spiriting folk away in the dead of night, and this bastard here was pulling all the strings.
109108TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_YSHTOLA_000_88A trifle simplistic, but not inaccurate.
110109TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_YSHTOLA_000_89I came as soon as I sensed his presence, but I never thought to find such a scene of carnage. Yet we prevailed. And thanks to your heroic actions, I have learned much.
111110TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_RYSSFLOH_000_90Aye, “heroic” is the word. I don't want to think about what would've happened if you hadn't been here, friend.
112111TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_RYSSFLOH_000_91And your assistance is much appreciated, too, Lady Y'shtola. Please give our regards to the Scions.
113112TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_YSHTOLA_000_92I am glad to have played a role in bringing what I hope is an end to this disturbing spate of abductions.
114113TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_YSHTOLA_000_93The thread of your fate forms a part of a most intriguing tapestry. Mayhap we will be afforded the chance to speak more in the near future.
115114TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_YSHTOLA_000_94For now, however, you must see this particular tale to its conclusion. Pray send my greetings to Commodore Reyner.
116115TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_GLAZRAEL_000_97Feint after bloody feint! Those pirates are getting too damn clever by half!
117116TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_YELLOWJACKETA_000_98You've come to aid with the defense? Then well met, and well come!
118117TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_YELLOWJACKETB_000_99Come on, you gutless bastards! Let's see how you fare against trained soldiers!
119118TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_100, eagerly have I awaited your return!
120119TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_101Word of your exploits is already spreading through the ranks. My troops and I owe you a great debt of gratitude for your timely assistance.
121120TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_102You have shown yourself to be possessed of a sure arm, a strong spirit, and sound judgment. Would that Limsa Lominsa had more of your like.
122121TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_103I have little doubt that you shall one day join the ranks of Eorzea's greatest adventurers. It is but a matter of time.
123122TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_104Clearly, Baderon's eye for potential remains as sharp as ever, though I doubt even *he* imagined you capable of such feats.
124123TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_105Might you favor me with your own account of the day's events? Such victories bear retelling!

127126TEXT_MANSEA007_00544_REYNER_000_112Needless to say, after your part in thwarting the attempted sabotage of the *Victory*, and the small matter of your deeds at Swiftperch, you too have proven yourself a valued friend of the thalassocracy.
