The Unending Journey

In an amazing display of teamwork, your fellow Scions inform you that the beast tribes are seeking to summon their primals once more. With the Grand Companies having suffered grievous losses in the recent operation, the task of vanquishing the god-like beings has fallen to you. Speak with Urianger for an overview of your mission.

In cryptic words, Urianger informs you that the Amalj'aa may have already succeeded in summoning Ifrit. Speak with Thancred, who has recently resumed his duties as a Scion, and ascertain the latest situation in Thanalan.

Thancred confirms Urianger's words that Ifrit has been summoned once more. Report to the Hall of Flames and speak with Commander Swift to learn how you might arrange a meeting with the Lord of the Inferno.

According to Commander Swift, a beastman aetheryte leading to Ifrit's domain, the Bowl of Embers, has been discovered within Zahar'ak in southern Thanalan. Fight your way to the innermost depths of the Amalj'aa stronghold, and attune to the aetheryte.

You have attuned yourself to the Zahar'ak aetheryte, and the path to the Bowl of Embers lies wide open. Assemble your stoutest adventuring comrades, and vanquish the Lord of the Inferno.

※The Bowl of Embers (Hard) trial.

On the heels of the Amalj'aa, the Ixal have also succeeded in summoning their primal. Report to the Adders' Nest and speak with Command Heuloix to learn how you might arrange an encounter with Garuda.

According to Commander Heuloix, a beastman aetheryte leading to Garuda's domain, the Howling Eye, has discovered with Natalan in the central highlands of Coerthas. Fight your way to the innermost depths of the Ixali stronghold, and attune to the aetheryte.

You have successfully attuned yourself to the Natalan aetheryte, and the path to the Howling Eye lies wide open. Assemble your stoutest adventuring comrades, and vanquish the Lady of the Vortex.

※The Howling Eye (Hard) trial.

As if on cue, the kobolds have succeeded in summoning Titan. According to Y'shtola, in his current incarnation, Titan now surpasses even Garuda in strength. Report to Maelstrom Command and speak with Commander Rhiki to learn how you might arrange a confrontation with the Lord of Crags.

According to Commander Rhiki, a beastman aetheryte leading to Titan's domain, the Navel, has been discovered within U'Ghamaro Mines in outer La Noscea. Fight your way to the innermost depths of the kobold stronghold, and attune to the aetheryte.

You have successfully attuned yourself to the U'Ghamaro aetheryte, and the path to the Navel lies wide open. Assemble your stoutest adventuring comrades, and vanquish the Lord of Crags.

※The Navel (Hard) trial.

Urianger has heard word that the primal Garuda has returned. Travel to the Adders' Nest in Gridania, and speak with High Serpent Commander Vorsaile Heuloix to learn more of this seemingly immortal foe.

Commander Heuloix warns you that the tempestuous primal has displayed a degree of power far greater than any of her previous incarnations. Speak with the commander when you are ready to receive a briefing on what promises to be a most demanding and dangerous mission.

After briefing you on the unusually potent manifestation of the primal, Commander Heuloix bids you confront Garuda in her domain in the Howling Eye. Travel to the Coerthas central highlands and battle your way to the beastman aetheryte deep within Natalan.
You have fought past the ranks of the Ixal to once more stand before the Natalan Aetheryte. Assemble your companions, and do battle with the Lady of the Vortex!

※The Howling Eye (Extreme) trial.

You have defeated the primal Garuda and obtained a strange object fashioned of bone.

Deliver the bone curiosity to Commander Heuloix at the Adders' Nest in Gridania, and inform him of your success against the primal Garuda.

Commander Heuloix surmises that the unsettling memento you retrived from the Howling Eye is likely some manner of ritual object. Return to the Waking Sands in Vesper Bay, and consult with Urianger on the nature of your grisly trophy.

You deliver the ritual focus to Urianger, and the scholarly Elezen surmises that Garuda's enhanced powers are likely the result of an altered rite of summoning. Doubting the Ixal's willingness to meddle in the traditional ritual, Urianger suspects the involvement of the chaos-breeding Ascians. As if to underscore his suspicions, the Scion prepares to tell you of yet another primal threat...

Titan, the Lord of Crags, has made his presence known in Vylbrand with ground-shaking force. Travel to Maelstrom Command in Limsa Lominsa, and speak with High Storm Commander R'ashaht Rhiki to offer your assistance.
Summoned once more by his kobold followers, the primal Titan has settled into his usual abode in the Navel. Infiltrate the kobolds' stronghold in outer La Noscea, and reestablish your link with the U'Ghamaro aetheryte.

You have re-attuned to the aetheryte hidden within U'Ghamaro Mines. Assemble your companions, and storm the domain of the Lord of Crags!

※The Navel (Extreme) trial.

You have defeated the primal Titan and obtained a ritual focus.

Deliver the ritual object to Commander R'ashaht Rhiki at Maelstrom Command in Limsa Lominsa, and inform her of your success against the primal Titan.
Commander R'ashaht Rhiki appears as unsure of the purpose of the ritual focus as her counterpart in Gridania. Return to the Waking Sands in Vesper Bay, and deliver the second trophy of bone to Urianger.

After listening to the tale of your adventures, Urianger begins comparing the common elements surrounding the unusually powerful resurgence of both Garuda and Titan. It appears that the growing strength of the primals neatly coincides with your own steadily burgeoning abilities...

Though there have been no overt signs of Ifrit's stirring, Urianger suspects that the situation will soon change. Visit the Hall of Flames in Ul'dah, and warn High Flame Commander Swift of the impending danger.

The disappearance of the Immortal Flames scouting parties deployed into Zahar'ak suggests that Ifrit once more rages within the Bowl of Embers. Commander Swift bids you gather a party of stout-hearted companions, and renew your bond with the Zahar'ak aetheryte in southern Thanalan.

You have re-attuned to the aetheryte at Zahar'ak. Assemble your companions, and confront the Lord of the Inferno in his own domain.

※The Bowl of Embers (Extreme) trial.

You have defeated the primal Ifrit and obtained a ritual focus.

Deliver the ritual object to Commander Swift at the Hall of Flames in Ul'dah, and inform him of your success against the primal Ifrit.

Commander Swift appears eager to devise new tactics for dealing with the strengthened primals. Return to the Waking Sands in Vesper Bay, and deliver the third ritual focus to Urianger along with Swift's hopes for a successful investigation.

You deliver the ritual object to Urianger and describe your encounter with the shadowy Ascians. The Elezen laments that while he is occupied with uncovering a more permanent solution to the primal threat, there is no recourse but to continue slaying the beastman deities whenever they arise. It appears, however, that he may have a means to aid you in this increasingly dangerous endeavor.
