1	0	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_SEQ_00	Kyokuho is giving you his best “Where have you been, young lady? I've been waiting for days” look.
2	1	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_SEQ_01	With nothing else to go on, Kyokuho suggests a journey to the place of his great-grandfather's training─Yanxia. Since you, too, have no better ideas, you agree to join him in Namai to begin the search for...something. Anything.
3	2	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_SEQ_02	According to the elders of Namai, geomancers once used a temple known as the Swallow's Compass to sharpen their minds and bodies. The temple is now abandoned, but Kyokuho believes there may be a chance that something can be discovered inside. Travel south to the One River and meet him near the building.
4	3	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_SEQ_03	Your intrusion sets off a trap, awakening a guardian ordered by the geomancers to protect the temple gates. The battle is fierce and bloody, but you emerge victorious. Speak with Kyokuho to decide your next move.
5	4	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_SEQ_04	After confirming there are no more traps, Kyokuho enters the Swallow's Compass alone to search for anything that might provide insight into his great-grandfather's barrier. He finds several scrolls that appear to do just that, but their condition prevents him from being certain. Convinced that Murakumo can decipher the scrolls, he sets off for the Shiokaze Hostelry.
6	5	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_SEQ_05	Master Murakumo is indeed able to decipher the scrolls but what he finds leaves Kyokuho─for the first time in recent memory─speechless. The only true way to lay the bonds for an unbreakable barrier is with the blood of a sacrifice. Follow Kyokuho to Kogane Dori and ask what he requires of you next.
7	6	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_SEQ_06	Refusing to even consider the offering of a sacrifice, Kyokuho finds himself back again at a familiar place─square one. Needing more time to think, he suggests you continue your own training until an epiphany is had. ※The next astrologian quest will be available from Kyokuho upon reaching level 70.

52	51	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_KYOKUHO_000_000	I have some good news and some bad news, Player. The bad news is, a thirty-seventh reading of my great-grandfather's tomes failed to reveal anything about the bonds that the previous thirty-six readings had not.

54	53	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_KYOKUHO_000_001	The good news─if you can call it that─is that we *did* discover where Grandmaster Kazan conducted his training when he was a youth.

56	55	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_KYOKUHO_000_002	How does this help us? Good question. I'm still not completely certain myself, but it is more than we had the last time you were here, and an onze of hope is better than none at all, so...what do you say, friend. Are you up for a journey across the Ruby Sea?

58	57	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_KYOKUHO_000_003	Hah hah! I knew you couldn't turn me down. Still, the road ahead won't be easy. Yanxia is large and the scars of war run deep along the Gensui Chain. It may be that which might have helped has already been claimed by flame. We'll have to place faith in our fortunes, and hope they guide us true.

62	61	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_MURAKUMO_000_009	Master Kazan would rarely speak of his youth, but I do recall several instances during my own training where he would treat with visitors from the mainland. I did not dare ask who they were, for we were allowed to speak only when spoken to, but now that I reflect back upon those visits, it might have been that the men were geomancers from Yanxia.

64	63	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_KYOKUHO_000_010	The air is heavy with mist, and these shacks probably let in more rain than they keep out. Something like a tome wouldn't survive a single moon here...let alone the decades since my great-grandfather's training. Still, a few words with the village elders provided an interesting bit of information.

66	65	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_KYOKUHO_000_011	Though it required some coaxing, several were able to recall memories of robed seers who resided in a nearby temple─a temple that was in use right up until the Garlean invasion and the subsequent banning of all religion.

68	67	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_KYOKUHO_000_012	The building─called the Swallow's Compass─while since abandoned, still remains in good repair. But listen to this. The locals avoid it for fear of disturbing the spirits with which they believed the geomancers communed. Do you know what this means? There could still be something left inside! Come!

70	69	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_KYOKUHO_000_020	The Swallow's Compass. Built during the rule of the first Doman king. I took the liberty to explore the grounds before you arrived and discovered this door. I know, I know. It pales in comparison to that impressive gate behind us, compelling any normal thief or bandit to dismiss it outright. But then why erect a geomantic field to protect it?
71	70	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_KYOKUHOU_000_021
72	71	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_KYOKUHO_000_021	I sense the flow of powerful energies here. Whatever lies behind this door, the geomancers wanted to keep it safe.

79	78	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_KYOKUHO_000_030	Well, I guess now we know what terrible guardians were summoned to protect the temple! You'll also be happy to hear I was able to temporarily nullify the barrier, granting access into the chamber beyond. As there may be more traps, I ask that you wait out here to deal with them for me. Just kidding! I have already checked. There are no more traps. Probably.

81	80	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_KYOKUHO_000_031	Fortune is with us, Player! The scrolls were intact, the barrier having protected them from both the elements and thieves. It took some searching, but I believe I was able to locate several that touch upon the laying of geomantic bonds.

83	82	TEXT_JOBAST680_02412_KYOKUHO_000_032	At least I think I was able to... The script on these scrolls is old and faded, not to mention written in a hand far beyond my comprehension. Luckily, Master Murakumo is almost as ancient as the tomes, and should have little difficulty prising out their secrets.
