Journal
- First Sword Mylla has an urgent task for you.
- One of your guildmates has been attacked by an unknown assailant and requires immediate assistance. Mylla bids you search for him at the Coffer & Coffin in central Thanalan and offer whatever assistance you can.
- Though the
potion is enough to save your comrade's life, it will take some time for him to make a full recovery. In the meantime, he asks you to find and speak with any witnesses in the vicinity, as well as search the point of ambush so that you can identify the assailant. - Your search yields a potential sighting, as well as a strange ring engraved with the likeness of a scorpion. Present your findings to the injured gladiator.
- Believing the ring to be an important clue, the gladiator suggests that you show it to Wymond, an independent businessman known to possess knowledge on a wide variety of subjects. Speak with Wymond on the Steps of Nald in Ul'dah.
- Wymond informs you that the ring is worn by members of the Alacran, a notorious criminal organization. Return to the Gladiators' Guild and tell Mylla everything you have learned.
- Moments after you return to make your report, Aldis
once again bursts into the guild, much to Mylla's chagrin. He admits that he is the target of the bounty hunters, and urges the guildmaster to leave the Alacran to him. However, Mylla refuses to heed his counsel and declares that the Gladiators' Guild will confront the bandits at the Silver Bazaar. Make your preparations for the coming battle and rendezvous with Mylla in western Thanalan. - After repelling the attackers, you and your comrades are confronted by more members of the Alacran, who are led by a man armed with a blade resembling Aldis's. While the encounter did not result in bloodshed, it has left Mylla shaken to the core. Return to the Gladiators' Guild and see if she is all right.
- At the guild, Aldis explains that Leavold, his former Coliseum partner, has taken control of the Alacran and transformed them from a gang of common thieves into the most feared criminal organization in Thanalan. However, Mylla insists that the Leavold she once knew would never do such terrible things. As you witness the exchange between the two of them, you cannot help but wonder what terrible twist of fate tore the three friends apart seven long years ago. ※The next gladiator quest will be available from Mylla upon reaching level 25.

[name], I'm glad you're here! One of our members has been attacked and gravely wounded, and I need you to go and help him.

Thank you, sister/brother. It all happened so fast...over by the tracks to the north. I don't know who attacked me, nor why they left me alive, but I daresay the answer is out there. Surely, someone saw something.
I don't remember anything myself, but I'm sure someone nearby saw something. Could you speak with the local residents and see what they know? The place I was attacked might also be worth a look.
Suspicious characters? Well, now that you mention it, I did see a strange fellow wearing a garish purple robe. At first, I thought he was talking to himself, but then I realized he had a linkpearl. I heard him say something about the “wrong man” and the “Silver Bazaar.” Does that help?
- FR Il me semble l'avoir entendu dire quelque chose comme “plan d'attaque du bazar”, mais c'est tout. ‘I think I heard him say something like "bazaar attack plan", but that's all.’ English heard "wrong man" and "Silver Bazaar"; French heard "bazaar attack plan".

The fellow outside? Aye, I saw him stumble in when I left the bar to take a piss. Was alone as I recall. Ye say he's wounded? Thought he was just drunk!

- JA 見たぜ、ああ確かに見た！ ‘I saw it, oh yes, I sure saw it!’ English saw the wounded man stumble in, thinking him drunk; Japanese saw a purple-robed assassin stab him.
Purple robe? Hmmm, that sounds familiar... Aye, it was him, I'd swear it. Did you find anything else?

Picked this up by the tracks, eh? Might well have belonged to the bastard. Can't say I've seen its like before.
Might be as Wymond could tell you more. You know him, don't you? He's the bespectacled bloke who's always lounging around Emerald Avenue in the city. 'Course, being the businessman that he is, he'll probably ask to be compensated in exchange.
- DE Und er schuldet mir noch einen Gefallen. ‘And he still owes me a favor.’ English expects Wymond to want payment; German says Wymond owes him a favor.
Show that ring to Wymond. He's sure to know something about it.
Show the scorpion ring to Wymond in Ul'dah.
Wymond
Well now, if it ain't [name], everybody's favorite 'venturer! I hear you threw your lot in with the gladiators─a questionable decision, given the events of recent days, but to each his own. To what do I owe the pleasure?
- DE Möchtest du ein Ah kaufen? ‘Psst. Want to buy an "Ah"?’ English greets you as everybody's favorite adventurer; German opens with a joke offer to sell an "Ah".
Oi, put that away before someone sees it! Where in the seven hells'd you get one of those rings!?
What, don't you recognize the sigil? Godsdamned fool. Before you go stumblin' around in the brush, you ought to at least know what kind of venomous bastards'll be lurkin' within.
Been a long time since Ul'dah's seen a criminal organization rise from obscurity to notoriety as quickly as the Alacran. Word is they've got connections to the Brass Blades, the Syndicate, an' gods know who else.
But you didn't hear that from me. I want no part of whatever mess you an' your mates have gotten yourselves into. Understood?
- FR En tout cas, je te conseille vivement de garder tes distances si tu tiens à la vie. ‘In any case, I strongly advise you to keep your distance if you value your life.’ English says Wymond wants no part of your mess; French warns you to keep away if you value your life.

Oh, [name]! I was wondering when you might return. What news do you bring of our injured comrade?

The Alacran? I find that hard to believe─but no matter.

Damn you, I'll...ugh!
First Sword...I'm sorry...
Ugh... We must...p-protect...
Nobody makes me bleed my own─ugh!
Speak with Mylla at the Gladiators' Guild.
Mylla
The Silver Bazaar!? Then it must be the same gang of ruffians!
One of our comrades returned from Stonesthrow moments ago. A gang of bandits is said to be headed for the Silver Bazaar. They're after a man with an enormous bounty on his head.
- DE Ein anderes Gildenmitglied ist in der Zwischenzeit im Armenviertel an eine wichtige Information gekommen: Eine Räuberbande soll einen großangelegten Coup planen. ‘Meanwhile another guild member came by an important piece of information in the slums: a robber gang is said to be planning a large-scale coup.’ English says the comrade returned from Stonesthrow; German says the tip came from the slums.

The people living there are in grave danger. In their frenzy to find their quarry, the bandits won't scruple to destroy property and harm civilians, and the few Brass Blades stationed there will be powerless to stop them.
- DE Dort verkehren hauptsächlich Gauner und Ganoven, und anständige Leute meiden den Markt. ‘Mostly crooks and villains go there, and decent people avoid the market.’ English fears for the people living there; German says mostly crooks go there and decent people avoid it.
- JA ウルダハ上層部から疎まれるバザーで、警護の人手も足りていない……襲撃は容易だろう。 ‘It's a bazaar shunned by Ul'dah's upper ranks, and short on guards too... a raid would be easy.’ English fears for the people living there; Japanese notes the bazaar is shunned by Ul'dah's upper ranks.
We must stop them, [name]. We'll protect the Silver Bazaar and avenge our injured guildmate, all in one fell swoop!
Aldis
A bit melodramatic, if you ask me.

Aldis!? I told you never to come here again!

I couldn't sit idly by while you charge into battle against an enemy you know nothing about. Mylla, a responsible guildmaster would never risk the lives of her charges like this.
- DE Sie sterben dir ja weg wie die Fliegen! ‘They're dropping like flies on you!’ English soberly says a responsible guildmaster wouldn't risk her charges; German mocks that they drop like flies.

Who are you to lecture me about responsibility!?

- JA では、お前には黒幕の正体がわかるというのか！？ ‘Then are you saying you know who the mastermind is!?’ English rejects his lecture on responsibility; Japanese asks whether he knows who the mastermind is.
Aldis
Mylla, listen to me─this is the Alacran you're dealing with.
Mylla
So? Whatever notoriety they may have achieved means nothing to me. We'll cut them down like the common bandits they are.
- DE Die massakrieren wir mit den rostigen Bronze-Gladii, die wir sonst nur an die Anfänger verteilen! ‘We'll massacre them with the rusty bronze gladii we normally only hand out to beginners!’ English vows to cut them down like common bandits; German jokes they'll do it with rusty beginners' swords.
Aldis
It's not that simple. More importantly, it's not your fight.

- JA お前じゃ勝てない。 ‘You can't win.’ English says it is not her fight; Japanese says she cannot win.

What are you saying?

They want me, Mylla. I've been fending off assassination attempts ever since I returned to Thanalan.
- DE Mylla, lass mich den wahren Grund verraten, warum ich nach Ul'dah zurückgekehrt bin. ‘Mylla, let me reveal the real reason why I came back to Ul'dah.’ English says he has fended off assassins since returning; German offers the real reason he returned.
- JA 俺がウルダハに帰ってきた理由を教えてやる。 ‘I'll tell you why I came back to Ul'dah.’ English says he has fended off assassins since returning; Japanese offers to tell why he returned.
Just stay here and let me handle this. It'll be over soon, I promise.

- JA …………7年だ。 ‘...Seven years.’ English bitterly throws his request back at him; Japanese only says "Seven years."
It's been seven years since I let you leave, Aldis. Seven years. Do you have any idea─any idea at all what you put me through?
- FR Il s'est passé sept ans, la dernière fois que tu m'as demandé ça, Aldis. ‘Seven years have passed since the last time you asked me that, Aldis.’ English counts seven years since she let him leave; French since he last asked her that.
Aldis
Mylla...
Mylla
I don't want to hear it, you selfish bastard! Do you even care about the people who suffered because of you? Just...just get out─we don't need your help! We'll settle this ourselves!
- DE Ich bin die Gildenmeisterin und ich sage, dass wir zurückschlagen! ‘I am the guildmaster and I say we strike back!’ English asks if he cares about those who suffered; German insists as guildmaster that they strike back.

Aldis
Mylla, wait! There's something you need to know─
Mylla
Enough! Get out, get OUT!
Aldis
All right, all right. Save some of that for the Alacran. But do try not to let [name] here come to harm while you're at it.
- DE Tolle Frau, nicht wahr? ‘Great woman, isn't she?’ English quips she should save her fury for the Alacran; German admires her as a great woman.
- DE Pass gut auf sie auf, [name]! ‘Take good care of her, [name]!’ English asks Mylla to keep [name] from harm; German asks [name] to protect Mylla.

There you are, [name]! Everyone's already in position! Are you prepared?
- DE Die Räuberbande hat sich schon versammelt. ‘The robber gang has already gathered.’ English says everyone on their side is in position; German says the robber gang has already gathered.
Give me a moment, [name]. I need to think...
Aldis
I wanted to spare you this, Mylla. I begged you not to go.
Mylla
You knew, Aldis? That...that Leavold had...
Aldis
Leavold and I once fought side by side in the Coliseum─the Twin Swords of Nald'thal, they called us. Never lost a match, honored by the Bull of Ala Mhigo himself─but that was then and this is now.
When I learned Leavold single-handedly transformed the Alacran from a gang of common thieves into the most feared criminal organization in Thanalan, I knew I had to return.
- DE Dafür wurden wir von Phönixgeneral Raubahn höchstpersönlich mit der berühmten Klinge Blutrausch ausgezeichnet. ‘For that, Phoenix General Raubahn himself honored us with the famous blade Bloodlust.’ English explains what made him return; German recounts being awarded the blade Bloodlust by Raubahn.
- JA 共にコロシアムで無敗の伝説を築き、ラウバーンから名剣「フレンジー」を下賜されたほどの剣の達人だ。 ‘He is a master swordsman who built an unbeaten legend with me in the Coliseum and was granted the famed sword "Frenzy" by Raubahn.’ English explains what made him return; Japanese recounts the famed sword "Frenzy" granted by Raubahn.
It seems like a lifetime ago that the three of us used to train together in this hall...
Mylla
The Leavold I knew would never stoop so low. He was a good man, strong and true! What would drive him to do this?
Aldis
When I find him, I'll be sure to ask. Unfortunately, he seems determined to kill me for my curiosity.
- DE Außerdem bin ich natürlich ein klitzekleines bisschen neugierig, warum er mir den Kopf abschneiden lassen will ... ‘Besides, of course I'm a teeny bit curious why he wants my head cut off...’ English says Leavold wants him dead for his curiosity; German says he is curious why Leavold wants his head.
- JA そして奴もまた、俺を殺すことで、その答えを得ようとしているのさ。 ‘And he, too, is trying to get that answer by killing me.’ English says Leavold wants him dead for his curiosity; Japanese says Leavold seeks the same answer by killing him.
Mylla
What aren't you telling me, Aldis?
- DE Ist zwischen euch etwas vorgefallen, was diesen Hass hervorgerufen haben könnte? ‘Did something happen between you that could have caused this hatred?’ English accuses Aldis of hiding something; German asks what happened between the two men.
- JA あなたたち二人の間に、何が？ ‘Between the two of you, what happened?’ English accuses Aldis of hiding something; Japanese asks what happened between the two of them.
Aldis
I'm not clever enough to keep secrets, my dear. I'm a simple man, only capable of dealing with what's right in front of me.
- DE Das würde ich gerne die Götter fragen ... ‘I'd like to ask the gods that...’ English says he is too simple to keep secrets; German says he would like to ask the gods.
- JA ……それを「運命」って呼ぶんなら、神様ってのは、くだらん言葉遊びの好きな下衆野郎なんだろうな。 ‘...If you call that "fate", then God must be a lowlife who loves stupid wordplay.’ English says he is too simple to keep secrets; Japanese calls God a lowlife fond of wordplay.
Mylla
Is that so...
- DE Spar dir dein Machogehabe ... ‘Spare me your macho act...’ English mildly says "Is that so..."; German scolds his macho act.
- JA どこまでも、バカな男……。 ‘A fool through and through...’ English mildly says "Is that so..."; Japanese calls him a fool through and through.

- JA そいつは男にとって最高の褒め言葉さ。 ‘That's the highest compliment a man can get.’ English promises to find him; Japanese calls "fool" the highest compliment for a man.
Mylla
Rejoice, gladiators, for the day is ours!
Hm!?
What!? But...but why would you be─
Leave 'em to us, First Sword!
Mylla
No, stop!
???: Such brittle blades, so easily broken. Perhaps the First Sword is made of stronger steel.
- JA ？？？？: ……脆い……刃こぼれにも等しい剣…………口ほどにも……ない…… ‘...Brittle... swords no better than chipped blades... not even... as good as... their boasts...’ English wonders if the First Sword is stronger steel; Japanese sneers that they are not as good as their boasts.
???: Leave her, Zana. Our business here is over.
Mylla
What...what have you done, Leavold...?
First Sword, we must withdraw! The wounded need tending! Let us take them back to the guild!
- DE Für heute haben wir genug erfahren. ‘We have learned enough for today.’ English says the wounded need tending; German says they have learned enough for today.
