Walkthrough

• Speak to Arminibit and Ceraulian in Port San d'Oria (I-9) inside Cargo Room A.
  • Auction House or Mog House Home Point are both close.
• Speak to Novalmauge who walks between (F-8) and (G-8) in Bostaunieux Oubliette Map 1 (enter from Northern San d'Oria (I/J-6) HP#2 and then Chateau d'Oraguille (I/J-8) ) for a cutscene.
  • Access to Chateau d'Oraguille is required to talk to Novalmauge in the Bostaunieux Oubliette. You must be at least Rank 2 in San d'Oria, or have started Mission 2-3 as a Bastok/Windurst citizen in order to enter Chateau d'Oraguille. You may also Unity Warp directly to the Bostaunieux Oubliette.
  • Note: If you have not yet completed the quest The Rumor ( Drain Quest), you can speak to Novalmauge a second time to accept The Rumor. You no longer need to complete The Rumor before advancing the job quest.
• Speak to Morjean in Northern San d'Oria (L-7), within the Cathedral's Manuscript room for a cutscene.
  • The quest will show up on quests tab now.
• If you don't already happen to have some, buy a Pickaxe.
  • Ostalie in Southern San d'Oria (F-8) around Home Point #4 is nearby.
  • Trailblazing Pickaxe does not work. It must be a regular Pickaxe.
• Go to the Maze of Shakhrami and trade (/trade) a Pickaxe to an Excavation Point to receive a Wyvern Egg.
  • If you come across "Fossil Rock," they are unrelated to this quest.
  • See the map on the right for Excavation Points (blue dots).

    

• Return to Morjean and speak to him with the Wyvern Egg in your inventory.
• Travel to Meriphataud Mountains (K-8) and look for a ??? near the base of Drogaroga's Spine. Trade the Wyvern Egg to it for a cutscene.
  • Quickest way is the Survival Guide in Castle Oztroja. Step outside and you're looking at the spine's base.
• Speak to Rahal in Chateau d'Oraguille (H-9).
  • He will provide you the Dragon curse remedy.
• Travel to Ghelsba Outpost to find the Hut Door at (F-10/G-10) to enter a BC fight. Quickest way to BC Entrance is Domenic Teleport NPC in Lower Jeuno.
  • The enemy in this BC is Wyvern Notorious Monster that is approximately level 40.
  • Only people up to this point in the quest or players who have already completed the quest may enter this BC.
  • You are unable to summon trusts in this fight.
• Upon defeating the Wyvern, you will receive your reward.
• There are more wyvern names to choose from if you pay to rename it.
