10TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_SEQ_00Serendipity would like to introduce you to a certain someone.
21TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_SEQ_01Serendipity gleefully informs you that your work has caught the eye of one Marcel, an influential agent who oversees commissions from Eshtaime's most influential clients. As the guildmaster tells it, the man has decided to recruit your services for a work of particular importance. Make for Eshtaime's Aesthetics where Marcel awaits, and see what it is he would have you create.
32TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_SEQ_02Marcel shares with you the details of the commission\xe2\x94\x80a bonding anniversary gift from the wife of a high-ranking officer in the Immortal Flames to her beloved husband\xe2\x94\x80and explains that the specific nature of the item has been left to your discretion. He recalls the words of a great goldsmith\xe2\x94\x80\xe2\x80\x9cTo give form to that which is formless, and breathe a warm, beating heart into the coldest of metal\xe2\x80\x9d\xe2\x94\x80and suggests that you use them as a starting point in your search for inspiration. Seek out Serendipity at the Goldsmiths' Guild and Momodi at the Quicksand and see if they have any insight into the matter.
43TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_SEQ_03Serendipity recognizes the words as those of her erstwhile master, while Momodi muses on the true meaning of gifts and memories. Convey their words to Marcel at Eshtaime's, that the two of you together might hit upon the inspiration you seek.
54TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_SEQ_04No sooner do you return to Marcel than does your customer, one Jeweled Peak, pay a visit to inquire on the progress of her commission. When she mentions her and her husband's shared love for the famed Songstress of Ul'dah, Marcel hits upon the idea of crafting a music box that would play a melody and memory from their youth, thus giving form to the formless and breathing a beating heart into metal. Your goal now clear, you must determine how best to approach the task at hand.\x02\x10\x01\x03\x02\x10\x01\x03\xe2\x80\xbbThe next goldsmith quest will be available from Marcel upon reaching level 53.

4949TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_SERENDIPITY_000_001Oh, of course! There's a certain someone I'd like to introduce to you\xe2\x94\x80a special someone, at that. His name is Marcel, and he's in charge of handling commissions from some of Eshtaime's most prestigious clients. We're talking the elite of the elite here.
5050TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_SERENDIPITY_000_002Marcel's clients expect nothing less than the finest, which means that Marcel trusts only our guild's most accomplished to fill his orders. Getting the call from Marcel is a sure sign that you've made it in the goldsmithing world. But I'm sure you can see where this is going, \x02,\r\xff\x07\x02)\x03\xeb\x02\x03\xff\x02 \x02\x03.
5151TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_SERENDIPITY_000_003It seems your fine work has earned you something of a reputation. With that\xe2\x94\x80plus a vote of confidence from little old me\xe2\x94\x80Marcel has personally requested your services for his latest commission. Why, he's waiting for you at Eshtaime's Aesthetics even as we speak! You're excited, aren't you? I know \x02\x1a\x02\x02\x03I'm\x02\x1a\x02\x01\x03 excited!
5252TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_SERENDIPITY_000_010It seems your fine work has earned you something of a reputation. With that\xe2\x94\x80plus a vote of confidence from little old me\xe2\x94\x80Marcel of Eshtaime's has personally requested your services for his latest commission.
5353TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_SERENDIPITY_000_011Why, he's waiting for you at the shop even as we speak! You're excited, aren't you, \x02,\r\xff\x07\x02)\x03\xeb\x02\x03\xff\x02 \x02\x03? I know \x02\x1a\x02\x02\x03I'm\x02\x1a\x02\x01\x03 excited!
5455TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_MARCEL_000_031Doubtless you have already heard from Mistress Serendipity, and in far too many words. I will be brief: a most important client of mine has commissioned a work of supreme significance\xe2\x94\x80and you will have the privilege of contributing to its creation.
5556TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_MARCEL_000_032Note that I say \x02\x1a\x02\x02\x03contribute\x02\x1a\x02\x01\x03. I ask you not to take full responsibility, a task which would doubtless prove beyond you at this stage of your career. Yes, you need not fear, for I will be here to guide you in every step of the process. To help you grow from a mere craftsman to a creator of genius, as it were.
5657TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_MARCEL_000_033With that, let us get down to business. The order comes from the wife of a high-ranking officer of the Immortal Flames. The anniversary of their bonding draws near, and this most refined madam would gift her beloved spouse with a memento of singular beauty and meaning.
5758TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_MARCEL_000_034As the lady tells it, her husband is a hardened warrior who\xe2\x94\x80despite his lofty rank\xe2\x94\x80rarely leaves the front lines, where he tirelessly leads his men against the Amalj'aa. Their anniversary day will mark a brief but welcome respite from the battlefield\xe2\x94\x80his first in moons.
5859TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_MARCEL_000_035As for the exact nature of the gift, she entrusts this entirely to us, as my clients are wont to do. Most believe that no mundane idea of their own could compete with the sheer genius and inspiration of Eshtaime's agents and artisans\xe2\x94\x80an assumption which is true more often than not.
5960TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_MARCEL_000_036But what shall we create, hmm? At times like this, I think back to the words of my mentor, a renowned goldsmith I had the honor of working with when I first came to Eshtaime's some years ago.
6062TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_MARCEL_000_038And yet rare indeed is it that inspiration comes entirely from within. In my own experience, I have found that reflecting upon these words in the company of trusted friends and colleagues oft proves enlightening.
6163TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_MARCEL_000_039Being a woman's gift, perhaps Mistress Serendipity and Miss Momodi at the Quicksand might have some insight to share. What say you consult them and return here with your impressions?
6264TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_MARCEL_000_040\xe2\x80\x9cTo give form to that which is formless, and breathe a warm, beating heart into the coldest of metal.\xe2\x80\x9d Such was the guiding principle impressed upon me by my master.
6365TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_MARCEL_000_041For the task in question, perhaps Mistress Serendipity and Miss Momodi at the Quicksand might have some insight to share. What say you consult them and return here with your impressions?
6466TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_MOMODI_000_0060If it ain't \x02,\r\xff\x07\x02)\x03\xeb\x02\x03\xff\x02 \x02\x03! Wait, don't tell me\xe2\x94\x80come to consult with yours truly in matters of the heart, mayhap?
6567TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_MOMODI_000_0061Work, you say? Well, that ain't half as fun, now is it? But I reckon I still might be able to help you some. Not that I'm much of an expert on gift-givin', mind you. If I were, like as not I wouldn't be standin' behind this counter alone, if you catch my meanin'.
6668TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_MOMODI_000_0062Many say it's best to go straight to the source, but things ain't always so simple. Just ask one of my regulars\xe2\x94\x80she asked her beau what he wanted for his nameday, and do you know what he said? \xe2\x80\x9cA fond memory, mayhap...\xe2\x80\x9d A \x02\x1a\x02\x02\x03memory\x02\x1a\x02\x01\x03! They don't sell those at Eshtaime's, last I checked.
6769TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_MOMODI_000_0063Which isn't to say that I don't understand what he was gettin' at. In the end, it's not the gift itself that matters, but the feelin's behind it. Hardened warrior or no, when he returns from the battlefield to see his beloved waitin' for him with open arms, he'll be moved by anythin' she has to offer.
6870TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_MOMODI_000_0070That said, when a gift's got too much emotion wrapped up in it, it can be quite a burden for the recipient to bear. Take my old hairpin, which sat sealed away out of sight until I worked up the courage to face my true feelin's.
6971TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_MOMODI_000_0075But this customer of yours and her husband are gettin' on in their years, no? Strikes me the ideal gift would be one that serves to reaffirm the bond they already share.
7072TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_MOMODI_000_0076A keepsake of sorts that would call to mind the day when the Spinner first brought them together. Seems to me that'd be as good a startin' point as any, wouldn't you say?

He says it's to make him look more refined, that he might better impress his customers. Just between you and me, I find it oh-so-slightly pretentious, but\xe2\x94\x80oh yes, do tell me about your assignment!
7577TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_SERENDIPITY_000_101\xe2\x80\x9cTo give form to that which is formless, and breathe a warm, beating heart into the coldest of metal\xe2\x80\x9d...? Why, that was the very challenge my master posed to me when I set off on my own as a goldsmith.
7678TEXT_CLSGLD502_02070_SERENDIPITY_000_102It would seem his words resonated deeply with Marcel, as well. To realize that ideal in one's own work is the sign of a truly first-rate goldsmith\xe2\x94\x80or so my master always said. That said, it is quite the riddle, is it not? That which is formless...
