40TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_SEQ_00The realm of Eorzea is filled with countless mysteries, but there is only one which Valiant Hart wishes to solve.
51TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_SEQ_01Valiant Hart has asked you to help him locate the secret treasure of Lalafuto III, who ruled the nation of Belah'dia over seven hundred years ago. To that end, you must solve a riddle hidden in an encoded message, which was written by the famed explorer Winebaud. Valiant Hart also makes mention of a man named Yayaroku, who may be able to offer assistance.
62TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_SEQ_02Your investigation leads you to a disciple of Winebaud, who entrusts you with the journal of his deceased master. Return to the statue of the Silent King and share your findings with Valiant Hart.
73TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_SEQ_03In your absence, Valiant Hart has made further progress in deciphering the encoded message. However, his efforts have yielded yet another riddle, one which you must solve if you wish to locate the treasure you seek.
84TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_SEQ_04Through methods mysterious and unknown, you receive a message from the late Winebaud. He praises your efforts to seek out the truth and shares with you a verse of poetry for reasons unknown. Valiant Hart will doubtless wish to hear of these developments.
95TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_SEQ_05Valiant Hart is pleased with your progress, but disappointed that Winebaud did not provide any clues as to the whereabouts of Lalafuto III's secret treasure. Having no other leads, he bids you solve the latest riddle he has deciphered.
106TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_SEQ_06Once again, the late Winebaud imparts to you a verse of poetry as a reward, albeit one of questionable value. Report your success to Valiant Hart at the statue of the Silent King.
117TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_SEQ_07Valiant Hart is bemused by the increasing complexity of Winebaud's riddles, as well as his penchant for rewarding you with poetic verses. Brushing aside that curiosity for the time being, he directs you to his most recent translation, which contains yet another riddle.
128TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_SEQ_08Your jewelry triggers an enchantment woven into Winebaud's engravings, allowing you to receive another message from the late explorer. To your chagrin, it contains little more than another verse of poetry. Valiant Hart does not appear to have seen the message, so perhaps you should tell him what you witnessed.
139TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_SEQ_09Bemoaning Winebaud's refusal to offer clear and concise directions, Valiant Hart tells you he has finished deciphering the encoded message. However, unlike previous sections, this one does not appear to contain a riddle. But where is the treasure of Lalafuto III, and what must be done to claim it?
1410TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_SEQ_10With the aid of your copper gorget, you lay claim to the secret treasure purported to be worth one hundred million gil. Valiant Hart snatches it from your hand, his eyes wild with greed, but his expression soon changes to one of disbelief. The “treasure” Winebaud spoke of was a collection of love poems written by Lalafuto III to his paramour, with whom the sultan wished to elope. His quest for phenomenal wealth having ended in utter failure, Valiant Hart cries out to the heavens in rage, cursing the explorer who valued true love above all else.

5450TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_VALLIANTHART_000_002...I see you refuse to confirm or deny my assessment. Keeping a low profile, are we? Very well─I shall speak of this to no one. By the by, my name is Valiant Hart. A pleasure to meet you, <If(PlayerParameter(4))>my lady<Else/>sir</If>.
5551TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_VALLIANTHART_000_003Ahhh, look at us! Two veterans, burdened with experiences beyond the common man's ken. I say, we should be friends, you and I! To that end, I shall share with you my reason for being here, and in so doing deepen our bond.
5652TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_VALLIANTHART_000_004Tell me, have you heard of Winebaud? He was an explorer of some renown ten years ago, though he regrettably retired and passed on not long ago. It is said that he discovered a treasure worth one hundred million gil.
5753TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_VALLIANTHART_000_005That's right─<Emphasis>one hundred million gil</Emphasis>! Winebaud called it the most precious secret of Lalafuto III, who was sultan of Belah'dia some seven hundred years ago.
5854TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_VALLIANTHART_000_006Just think what we might do with such a treasure! Aye, I say <Emphasis>we</Emphasis>, for should you aid me in my search, I would gladly share the spoils. What say you?
5955TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_SYSTEM_000_010Should you choose to undertake this quest, you will receive no guidance from the journal or the duty list. You will need to read the text carefully and decipher the clues to determine your next course of action.
6056TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_SYSTEM_000_011Moreover, it may be unwise to rely on other adventurers for assistance, as their clues and objectives may differ from yours.
6157TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_SYSTEM_000_012The path your quest may take and the rewards you may receive are unknown. Yet knowing this, will you follow in the footsteps of Winebaud and seek out the treasure of Lalafuto III?
6258TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_Q1_000_000Follow in the footsteps of Winebaud?

6662TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_VALLIANTHART_000_015Upon this statue of the Silent King is writ a message, left to us by Winebaud himself, which I believe will lead us to the treasure. Alas, it is encoded, and deciphering it is no small feat. See for yourself─I have only finished the first passage.
6763TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_VALLIANTHART_000_016What is worse, the contents are nigh unintelligible! It appears to be a riddle, but beyond that I cannot say. And so I would turn to you.
6864TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_VALLIANTHART_000_017If you solve the riddles I decipher, then together we can claim the treasure of Lalafuto III. A simple arrangement, yes? Then let us begin at once! Look to the statue for the first riddle.
6965TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_VALLIANTHART_000_020Beg your pardon, did you just say <Emphasis>no</Emphasis> to one hundred million gil? Well, that is your decision to make─and regret.
7066TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_VALLIANTHART_000_021The thaumaturges summoned one of their own from the Ossuary to inspect this message when it was first found. He came and went in less than a bell, having determined at a glance that it wasn't Belah'dian in origin.
7167TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_VALLIANTHART_000_022Yet the treasure we seek belonged to a Belah'dian sultan...and there must be a reason why Winebaud chose to mark this statue. That fellow─Yayaroku was his name, I believe─may have insight into this riddle.
7268TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_SYSTEM_000_025Carved upon the statue is a series of strange characters. Next to them, written in chalk, you find Valiant Hart's translation.

7773TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_YAYAROKU_000_031Then you must be another wide-eyed treasure hunter searching for the lost treasure of Lalafuto III. <sigh> Winebaud was a skilled storyteller, and you would be forgiven for thinking his tales were all true. Even now, I cannot say if he was lying to us or himself.
7874TEXT_SUBFST999_01437_YAYAROKU_000_032Hm? You say you deciphered his message? Very well, let us hear it.
