10TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_SEQ_00The deputy postmoogle would reward your efforts with an assignment to more idyllic climes.
21TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_SEQ_01In lieu of the vacation that he claims you rightfully deserve, the deputy postmoogle has entrusted you with a letter addressed to Master Gegeruju, of Costa del Sol fame. When life hands you a lemon, make lemoncakes─deliver the missive to Gegeruju's beach paradise in eastern La Noscea, and try to enjoy the journey.
32TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_SEQ_02The envelope you delivered contains a blunt refusal from the dancing master Guillaunaux, who Master Gegeruju had sought to employ for the purpose of bringing the forefront of artistic expression to Costa del Sol. Fortunately for the enterprising entrepreneur, Guillaunaux saw fit to introduce another dance instructor who may prove more accommodating. Carry the contract drafted by Gegeruju to this esteemed personage, who may be found in outer La Noscea.
43TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_SEQ_03The mysterious dance instructor is revealed to be none other than Bugaal Ja, a Mamool Ja whose questionable behavior while bathing has earned him the scorn and disgust of many a smoothskin. Deeply moved to have found a patron who would pay the proper respect to his people's tradition, Bugaal Ja eagerly consents to the terms offered. Before setting off for Costa del Sol, however, he must prepare himself according to Mamool Ja custom. Seek him out at the Hermit's Hovel.
54TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_SEQ_04Bugaal Ja is eager to make for Costa del Sol and begin his dance instruction, but first he must purify his body according to Mamool Ja ritual─or rather, you must do it for him. Pour some sacred spring water over the Mamool Ja's body.
65TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_SEQ_05It would appear that a single dash of sacred spring water was not sufficient for the cleansing ritual. Repeat the process in hopes that a second splash will suffice.
76TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_SEQ_06Bugaal Ja grows more animated as he bathes in the soothing waters of the Hermit's Hovel, but it would appear the ritual is not yet complete. Douse him once more and see if the third time's the charm.
87TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_SEQ_07His body now cleansed to his satisfaction, Bugaal Ja sets out for Costa del Sol. Venture there yourself and inform Master Gegeruju that his dancing master is on his way.
98TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_SEQ_08Master Gegeruju informs you that his dancing master arrived a short while ago, and has already been introduced to his students. The dance lesson will begin momentarily, and you are invited to attend.
109TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_SEQ_09Bugaal Ja's undulations and gyrations proved a bit too vigorous for the aspiring dancers, who fled screaming from the lesson while it had barely begun. Speak with Master Gegeruju and hear his assessment of the entire ordeal.
1110TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_SEQ_10While disheartened with the results, Master Gegeruju does not regret his endeavor to bring the vanguard of artistic expression to Costa del Sol. Nevertheless, it appears that it will still be some time before the average Eorzean can find it in himself to accept Mamool Ja custom. In the meantime, should the undulations of the erstwhile dancing master once more threaten to cause panic amongst the unwitting bath-goers of Bronze Lake, you know where your talents will be needed.

5049TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_LETTERMOOGLE_000_001I'm not going to give you one, of course─I do have a reputation to maintain─but I will give you the next best thing: a letter addressed to Master Gegeruju at Costa del Sol!
5150TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_LETTERMOOGLE_000_002Soak up the rays of the sun, bask in the balmy ocean breeze, sneak a furtive glance at the lovely dancers─that last one can be our little secret─and you'll soon forget that you're working, kupo!
5251TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_LETTERMOOGLE_000_005I know at least three moogles who would give their pom for this assignment, but I chose you. Don't you feel special? Now, off to Costa del Sol with you!
5352TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_GEGERUJU_000_010<yawn> Oh, how I tire of the same idyllic sights night after night after night! How long must I wait to see my new beauties take the stage?
5453TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_GEGERUJU_000_011Titan's Bane, a messenger girl!? Is the adventuring life so unprofitable these days? I could always use another winsome lass to winnow me. You may be a touch overqualified, but the pay is generous and the location cannot be topped...
5554TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_GEGERUJU_000_012...But I digress. The letter you have brought me is a reply from none other than the esteemed Master Guillaunaux, whom I have enlisted to train my next generation of *artistes*. A great honor I bestow upon him, yes?
5655TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_GEGERUJU_000_013Ahem... “Master Gegeruju, while you present a compelling offer, I would rather live out my days in the Navel than spend even a moment instructing empty-headed, ample-bosomed strumpets with as much passion and aptitude for dance as a pack of three-legged shrews.”
5756TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_GEGERUJU_000_014It seems the poor, misguided fellow values the integrity of his art above coin. But what's this? The letter continues, “That said, I know of another whose particular school of dance─though somewhat experimental─may suit your purposes well...”
5857TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_GEGERUJU_000_015What splendid news! The letter neglects to mention his name, but says that he makes his home by Iron Lake in outer La Noscea. Might you be a good messenger girl and deliver this contract to him? I would have my girls begin their training straightaway.

6059TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_020Why do smoothskins shun my dance!? My dance is dance of vigor and virility!
6160TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_100_021Paper, for Mamool Ja? Mamool Ja does not want paper.
6261TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_021Mamool Ja wants *freedom*─freedom to dance! Why does no one understand!?
6362TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_022Hm? Smoothskin wants me to dance? Is some kind of trick to take my coin?
6463TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_023No trick? Smoothskin *pays* coin? Coin for Mamool Ja? Coin to dance Mamool Ja dance?

6665TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_025Too long has Mamool Ja custom been mocked. Too long have Mamool Ja hips been fettered!
6766TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_026(-Bugaal Ja-)But no more! Smoothskin shows kindness to Bugaal Ja. Bugaal Ja repays kindness, shares proud Mamool Ja tradition with all!
6867TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_027(-Bugaal Ja-)Traditional Mamool Ja bathing dance will be shunned no more! Today, Costa del Sol; tomorrow, the realm!
6968TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_028(-Bugaal Ja-)But dance cannot be danced with body soiled. This is Mamool Ja custom, and custom must not be broken.
7069TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_029(-Bugaal Ja-)Bugaal Ja would cleanse body in Bronze Lake, where water is warm and sights are...stimulating. But smoothskins there have small hearts and narrow minds. Bugaal Ja will go west to little house, where Bugaal Ja can bathe in peace.
7170TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_030You are not like other smoothskins─smoothskins who shun Mamool Ja. Bugaal Ja is pleased.
7271TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_031Bugaal Ja likes little house. Water is warm, and smoothskin leaves Bugaal Ja to himself.
7372TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_032But enough talk─soiled body needs cleansing. But Mamool Ja must not wash own body. This, too, is Mamool Ja way.
7473TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_033Smoothskin take water, pour over Bugaal Ja's body. One, two, three times. Body cleansed, muscles loose─Bugaal Ja will be ready to dance!

8382TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_GEGERUJU_000_070Ah, there you are. I must say, our new dancing master made quite a first impression. I've already taken the liberty of introducing him to the girls.
8483TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_GEGERUJU_000_071Costa del Sol shall be at the forefront of an artistic revolution! I can see the tourists flocking in, hear the clinking of their ample coinpurses...

8786TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_075You and Master Gegeruju are friend to Mamool Ja. Thanks to you, days of scorn and hurt are over.
8887TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_076Bugaal Ja has waited long for this day! Today, smoothskins shall know traditional Mamool Ja bathing dance in all its glory!
8988TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_DANCER1_000_075*That* is our new dancing master!? Is this some kind of a joke...?
9089TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_DANCER2_000_075I don't like the way he's looking at me... Oh well, at least Master Gegeruju pays well!
9190TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_080Master Gegeruju, other smoothskins shun Mamool Ja tradition, but you welcome us with arms open. Bugaal Ja will not forget this kindness. Bugaal Ja will be greatest dancing master Costa del Sol ever knew.
9291TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_081Traditional Mamool Ja bathing dance is dance of pleasure, dance of life-giving! Every lift of leg, every sway of hips is sacred. When you dance Mamool Ja bathing dance, you must summon vitality from the very depths of your soul.
9392TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_GEGERUJU_000_082Did you hear that, girls? I'm paying you good coin for this─don't be shy up there!
9493TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_DANCER_000_083(-Aspiring Dancers-)Y-Yes, Master Gegeruju! We've been waiting our whole lives for this chance. We won't let you down!

102101TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_GEGERUJU_100_088Now where did everyone run off to? And you...are you feeling quite all right!?
103102TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_BUGAALJA_000_089I...I do not understand, Master Gegeruju. Bugaal Ja only danced as Master asked me to dance.
104103TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_GEGERUJU_000_090Pay no mind to the reactions of my servants. I suspect they were simply overwhelmed by the sheer wonder of the spectacle laid before them. 'Tis sadly a common plight with artists who are ahead of their time.
105104TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_GEGERUJU_000_091That said, it is perhaps for the best that we...ah...part ways, at least for the time being. Rest assured that you will receive full compensation for your services─as will you, Titan's Bane.

107106TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_GEGERUJU_000_101Ah, you've returned. Have you any idea what all that shrieking and retching was about? I, for one, found Bugaal Ja's gyrations positively...captivating.
108107TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_GEGERUJU_000_102I was eagerly anticipating the sight of my fair maidens performing this treasure of Mamool Ja tradition, but alas! Once again the commonfolk prove incapable of appreciating my heightened aesthetic sensibilities.
109108TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_GEGERUJU_000_103And yet, while I am a lover of the fine arts, I am an even greater lover of coin. The highest form of art in the world means nothing to me without an audience─a *well-paying* audience.
110109TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_GEGERUJU_000_104As such, I have made the most heartrending decision to annul Master Bugaal Ja's contract, effective immediately. In return, I compensated him with a healthy sum and a one-day pass to the springs at Bronze Lake. I don't foresee this being a problem, do you?
111110TEXT_SUBPST006_01532_GEGERUJU_000_105That said, the sheer unbridled passion that the Mamool Ja possess for the act of bathing is truly a sight to behold. Were only this passion shared by the average Eorzean, oh, what fortunes could be had!
