Journal
- Eylgar would like to impose upon the kindness of an adventurer.
- Eylgar has asked you to verify the claims of a Lalafellin peddler, who swears that winged beasts attacked him on the road south of Bentbranch. Retrace his steps and search for any evidence to support his story.
- After stumbling upon a large vulture egg, two northern vultures descend to defend their nest. Now that you have slain the beasts, seek out Lothaire at Galvanth's Spire and tell him what transpired.
- Lothaire is shocked to learn of the nest hidden less than twenty yalms from his post. He implores you to keep its existence a secret, and vows that similar incidents will never happen again.

Eylgar
You're quite the compassionate adventurer, by the sound of it. Well far be it from me to look a gift chocobo in the mouth─I have need of a capable woman/man like yourself.
We received a peddler at the gates the other day─an excitable Lalafell that was sweating and swearing that he had been attacked by large winged beasts. Yet other than hornets, I know of no flying creatures in this region.
If there's any truth to what he said, it might prove problematic for other travelers. Follow the road south and see if you can find any evidence to support his claim.
And, should you find something, kindly tell Lothaire to patrol his area sometime instead of just standing beneath the spire and staring at the godsdamned road. In those words.
Speak with Lothaire.
Lothaire
...A northern vulture? Two? And they were defending a nest!?
Well, I, uh...perhaps we could omit that last detail from any official reports. I would rather not give Eylgar any further cause to be cross.
Thank you for slaying the beasts. You may rest assured that I will not permit this to happen again.
