Windurst.
-- San d'Oria Version --
Once in San d'Oria head to Northen part of the city to the Consulate of Bastok and speak with Helaku. Also speak with Halver in the
Chateau d'Oraguille at the stairs inside. Also make sure you have gotten the Gheisba Outpost Map so you can find the outpost easier.
and then head there. Once at outpost head up the ramp near section I-6 and enter the cave that is there.
Once in the cave head forward then make all right turns and eventually you wil lexit the cave and head forward and up the
mountain. Once you reach the bridge at the top of the mountain cross it and slay Warchief Vatgit.
Now return to the Consulate of Bastok in San d'Oria and speak agian with Helaku. He will ask you to head now to Windurst.

make to Bastok to the Metalworks and speak with Naji and he will then speak with you and reward you with Rank 3 and 3000 Gil.
-- Windurst Version --
The first half of the mission from the Windhurst side is to make a peace offering to the Yagudo at the Tresure Room in Giddeus.
Seeing Kupipi in Windhurst (Heaven's Tower, in the Clerical Chamber), she will give you a magic sword (key item) to offer.
You must go to the consulate of Bastok (Port Windurst) to speak with GoldSkull, a galka, located in the 2nd room to your right.
He will exchange the "Sword offering" for a "Dull blade". The Treasure Room is located in the tunnels of Giddeus, and once finding it,
you will see it is guarded by an NPC Yagudo. Speaking to him, he says the weapon you have is not good enough to offer, and that
he'd rather have the blade used by Eyy, a named monster Yagudo that spawn not far away. The battle with Eyy is fairly simple,
and the weapon drop is an Aspir Dagger, which is hardly worth the effort, but neccesary. Once obtaining the Aspir Dagger, speak
to the Yagudo at the door to the treasure room again, and this part of the mission is complete.
Note: Please remeber to speak to everyone in the Consulate after completing each part of this mission, as it's a long walk back if you
forget to, and you can't advance or complete the mission if you don't. You mUST speak to the consulate to get the dull sword in
order to continue the mission.
While no one can give you the best or easiest tactic to defeat the 'Horrible Beast', there is one piece of advice which is extremely
pertinent. Even though the 'Horrible Beast' fight is on a burning circle, and normally as long as one person opens the circle any
member of the party can enter, but they must be of Rank 3 or higher, but they will suffer a Lvl 25 cap on helping you out.
People from different nations can also help out as long as their dragon is in the same burning circle and they have completed all the
things neccessary for them to enter the burning circle. They may need to on the circle when you activate it to be able to help out
(Unconfirmed).
Fot the second part of the mission, head to to the Bastok Consolate in Northern San D'oria, and he will tell you to talk to Lord Halver
in the Chateau. He will tell you only to head to Yughott Grotto deep inside Ghelsba Outpost. You will need to head to the burning
circle to complete this mission, and it is recommended to have a solid party with you.
To get to the burning circle, follow the walls to the right to the top portion of the Outpost and go into the tunnel behind an orc
building, which will take you into Fort Ghelsba. Head all the way to the top of Fort Ghelsba, and go into a tunnel behind another orc
building to get to Yughott Grotto. You will see two exits other than the one you just entered: the southern one is to the hot springs
on Horlois Peak, and the NE one is to the burning circle on Horlois Peak. Head to the burning circle and enterthe battlefield,
defeating the Dread Dragon and The Seeker. Head back to the consolate in San D'oria, and finally back to Bastok to complete the
mission.
