40TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_SEQ_00Jannequinard has something to say, and that glint behind his monocle suggests it is important.
51TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_SEQ_01Leveva, daughter of disgraced (and deceased) astrologian Rufin, granddaughter of eccentric (yet powerful) Mace, came to Ishgard from faraway Sharlayan to preach the virtues of her homeland's school of astrology. However, forces in both the Holy See and the island nation of scholars to the north would work to prevent her from accomplishing that very thing. Yet, with your aid and (to a far lesser extent) that of the nobleman Jannequinard de Durendaire, Leveva is able to thwart her enemies and open the door for bringing Ishgard into an all new era of astrological studies. A quick chat with Jannequinard reveals that Lady Leveva, now going by the name of her father, is currently awaiting your arrival at the First Dicasterial Observatorium of Aetherial and Astrological Phenomena.
62TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_SEQ_02Was it chance? Was it fate? Does it matter? When visiting your old mentor, Leveva, the Observatorium receives a most unexpected visitor in Kyokuho, a traveler from the Far East. Kyokuho expresses his interest in learning the art of Sharlayan astrology, to which Leveva begrudgingly agrees to help─or rather, agrees to let <Emphasis>you</Emphasis> help by accompanying the man to Rootslake in the South Shroud where you will guide him in opening the gate to the first heaven.
73TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_SEQ_03Much to Jannequinard's chagrin, Kyokuho is able to open the first gate with what appeared to be great ease. Now that your work is complete, it is time you return to the Athenaeum Astrologicum where Leveva continues her preparations for the symposium.
84TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_SEQ_04Leveva is pleasantly surprised by the outcome of your trip to Rootslake with Kyokuho...and (not so) humbly asks that you continue your and the Hingan's training while she furthers her preparations for the symposium. ※The next astrologian quest will be available from Leveva in the Athenaeum Astrologicum upon reaching level 63.

5248TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_JANNEQUINARD_000_000Top of the morning to you, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>. Or is it the evening? It is so hard to tell locked up here in the Athenaeum day and night. Alright, <Emphasis>technically speaking</Emphasis> I can leave at any time of my choosing, but it is as if some strange force prevents me for stepping forth into the light... But enough of that. You are here to learn what became of your humble companions while you were off saving the realm.
5349TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_JANNEQUINARD_000_001Well, since Ishgard's quite abrupt change in leadership, the Vault has become somewhat more receptive to the contemporary ideas of Lady Leve─er, Master Rufin. They have even asked our compatriot-in-disguise to hold for them another symposium on Sharlayan astrology...and this time within the city–state proper, and not at some forsaken hamlet! (Nothing against the fine citizenry of Falcon's Nest, mind you.)
5450TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_JANNEQUINARD_000_002In fact, the good Rufin has foreseen your arrival in the stars, and awaits you in the Observatorium.
5551TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_JANNEQUINARD_000_003The look on your face tells me you are less than convinced. Still the skeptic after all we have been through together, eh? Allow me to recreate this morning's reading.
5652TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_JANNEQUINARD_000_004In the center of the Dawn Cross we have the Spear. To its left, the inverted Arrow. To its right, the inverted Balance. Beneath, we have the inverted Spire and the inverted Bole. And finally at the crown, is the Ewer.
5753TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_JANNEQUINARD_000_005Well...? Do you not see it? It is as plain as the stench of day-old piss in the Brume on a balmy summer's eve. “Though peace hath settled upon our great land, it will be along the path of coming destruction that friends new and old shall discover the bush that doth bear the fruit of knowledge and hope.” And to think it was <Emphasis>you</Emphasis> who attuned to all six heavens!
5854TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_JANNEQUINARD_000_006In other words, <If(PlayerParameter(4))>she<Else/>he</If> who brought peace to Ishgard (that would be you) will walk the road south to the Observatorium where...I don't know, you shall read some books with Lady Leveva to discover a new spell for delivering excruciating pain to your enemies and their families? It all sounded more convincing when she explained it to me this morning over that bottle of wine. Or was it two bottles...?
5955TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_JANNEQUINARD_000_007At any rate, I would suggest you make haste. You know how our little protégée does not take kindly to those who make her wait. It was good seeing you again, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>. And something tells me you will be back again soon. <wink>
6056TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_JANNEQUINARD_000_008The Dawn Cross uses all six of the major arcana to tell a person's fortune. The cards are shuffled and drawn one at a time. The first card drawn is placed face up in the scrying table's center. This card is also known as the “core” and represents the subject's present state. The second card is placed immediately to the core's left and represents what, in the past, has exerted influence over the subject.
6157TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_JANNEQUINARD_000_009The third card is placed immediately to the right of the core and represents what will most affect the subject in the near future. The fourth card is placed below the core, with the fifth card placed immediately below that one. These cards represent misfortune the subject may face in the foreseeable future and the root of that misfortune respectively. The sixth and final card is placed directly above the core to form the cross, and is representative of the subject's overall fortune... Or at least that is what it said in that tome I copied it from on introductory astrology.
6258TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_LEVEVA_000_010Friend and fellow astrologian! It is so good to see you again. What has it been? Two...? Three...? Ah, let us just say that it has been too long.
6359TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_LEVEVA_000_011Did Jannequinard speak to you of my reading? Well, then there is hope for that well-dressed dullard yet, though I've learned the key to success is not entrusting him with more than one task at a time, and making certain that task does not require much in the way of thinking...or acting, for that matter.
6460TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_LEVEVA_000_012As for the reading, I believe it instructs as to my─as to <Emphasis>our</Emphasis>─next step in spreading the knowledge of─

9288TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_JANNEQUINARD_000_032Lady Leveva, did not the morning's reading mention “friends new and old”? What if <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/> were the friend old, and this peculiar little man the friend new?

9894TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_LEVEVA_000_036Er, yes... The elements... We will have to discuss that further at another juncture. For the time being, I am placing you in the care of my first and foremost pupil, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>.
9995TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_JANNEQUINARD_000_037An excellent proposal...or as I believe the Hingans say, “keikaku.” I dabbled a bit in the language when I was younger but for the life of me that ebon-haired emissary would not afford me even a sidelong glan─
10096TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_JANNEQUINARD_000_038Ahem! Then might I hazard that there is no finer place to begin unlocking the secrets of the stars than under the Bole near Rootslake?

130126TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_LEVEVA_000_070My thanks for taking the Hingan off my hands.

131127TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_LEVEVA_000_071I see. Perhaps I judged Kyokuho too hastily. I still have my reservations, but I shall afford him the benefit of the doubt...for now.
132128TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_LEVEVA_000_072The teachings of geomancy may be grounded in faerie tales and falsehoods, but my grandfather told me that every lie is born of the truth. If I can find the truth within Kyokuho's backwards beliefs, it may provide insight into our own school of thought.
133129TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_LEVEVA_000_073I see now that my choice to assign you as his tutor was a wise decision. Might I ask this of you, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>?
134130TEXT_JOBAST601_02409_LEVEVA_000_074I promise that once the symposium has ended, I shall assume the duties of Kyokuho's tutelage. I sense good fortune in our stars, my friend. Good fortune, indeed.
