Relieved to be free, the man explains that his orders called for him to guard Morgant, Yalto Nolto, and Lewenhart. You have tracked down the missing Brass Blade, hands tied and stripped to his skivvies behind a hill on the sands of Bloodshore.Search the area around Bloodshore for the missing Blade, that you might glean from him some information as to how the thief intends to strike. He further explains that he was informed at Brass Blade headquarters that one of their men has gone missing. If Inspector Briardien's deductions are correct, then the phantom thief has already infiltrated the banquet by assuming the identity of one of the Brass Blades of the Gerbera, hired by Master Guguremu to serve as bodyguards at the banquet.Rendezvous with Briardien on the outskirts of Costa del Sol and see what he has in mind.

She further explains that the maiden has recently been betrothed to the son of a Lominsan trading mogul, and is to make a rare public appearance at a banquet to be held in the couple's honor. Employing her finely honed reporter's senses, Ellie has tracked down the identity of the lapis maiden─the daughter of a prominent Ul'dahn trader by the name of Arabella whose beauty has been the talk of the town, despite no one having actually seen her in the flesh.Thus far I have gleaned little save for war stories and tales of drinking prowess, but I am certain it is only a matter of time before the answer is within my grasp! Employing my own stupendous powers of disguise, I have concealed myself among a group of Blass Blades, hoping to ascertain the identity of the “lapis maiden” mentioned by the thief. Somewhere in the realm, the masked fiend I pursue sets a leering eye on a poor, defenseless young maiden─a case that cries out for a gentleman inspector, if ever there were one.
