== Walkthrough ==
* Examine the [[Animal Spoor]] in [[Xarcabard (S)]] at (J-9).
** Close to the [[Beaucedine Glacier (S)]] zone.
** Make sure to grab the Xarcabard (S) [[Home Point]] at (H-9) if you haven't yet.
* Examine the [[Wheel Rut]] at (I-9), early in the dead-end tunnel at the southern part of the grid.
* Examine the [[Animal Spoor]] at (J-9) again for a {{KI}} [[Vial of military prism powder]].
* Examine the [[Forbidding Portal]] door in the northwest corner of (I-7) for a cutscene. Examine it again to enter the Battlefield.

In this BC you must fight 2 [[Bloodwing Deathrainer]]s ([[BLM]]), 4 [[Bloodwing Maimer]]s ([[WAR]]), a [[:Category:Bugard|Bugard]] named [[Gherrmoga]], and [[Kingslayer Doggvdegg (S)|Kingslayer Doggvdegg]] ([[PLD]]).
* You will be assisted by [[Excenmille (S)|Excenmille]]; should he fall, the battle will instantly end in failure. Do not delay too long at the beginning, or he might run in and get himself killed.
** Excenmille will occasionally use a skill called '''Stag's Cry''' that will give party members in range a temporary attack boost and magic attack bonus.
** Excenmille will also do a weaponskill called '''Songbird Swoop''' that does damage.
* Defeating [[Kingslayer Doggvdegg (S)|Kingslayer Doggvdegg]] will end the fight regardless of the other NMs' health; however, his death may be prolonged due to [[Invincible]].
** A good strategy is to have someone kite Kingslayer Doggvdegg, and Elemental Seal + Sleepga the BLMs and WARs. Fight the the Bugard, then the BLMs, then the WARs, then finally fight Kingslayer Doggvdegg himself.
** Kingslayer Doggvdegg will use Invincible and will occasionally gain a Stoneskin effect.
** If you lose the battlefield, wait until the next Vana'diel day and return to the '''Animal Spoor''' to receive another {{KI}} [[Vial of military prism powder]].
After the fight, examine the [[Wheel Rut]] back at (I-9) for a cutscene that ends the quest and your reward.

If you are working on missions then return to [[Fate in Haze]].
