*Take the northern Port Ephramad ferry to [[Nashmau]] and go through North Gate to [[Caedarva Mire]]. Head NE/NW to the (I-6) zone to [[Arrapago Reef]].
**Taking the survival guide to Arrapago Reef works as well.

** Note that a [[Lamian Fang Key]] is '''not''' needed to access the '''???'''.
*Speak to Ghatsad.
*Wait until the next Vana'diel day and speak to Ghatsad to receive your new [[Automaton]].
*Speak with Iruki-Waraki (K-9, top floor) in Aht Urhgan Whitegate to complete the quest and receive your [[Animator]]. You will also be asked to choose a name for your Automaton from a list.
**You can choose from more names if you opt to [[Automaton#Automaton Names|rename your Automaton]].
