If ye got a mind to make yerself useful, why don't ye cull some mitelin's fer us?
We train a lot o' chocobos here, see, and the young'uns go wild when they get a sniff of a mitelin'. Some even throw their bloomin' riders!
Let me tell ye, it ain't easy trainin' a chocobo when she drops ye on yer head every time she sees a shadow. We've been gettin' nowhere with the birds, lately. If ye could rid us of a few mitelin's, we'd be in yer debt.
Report to Bodwine.
Bodwine
Thank ye fer the help! We can finally get back to trainin' the young birds.
Chocobos're skittish by nature, see, and trainin' 'em takes a deal o' patience. It don't make the task any easier that soldiers and adventurers tend to ride 'em towards danger rather than away from it...
Anyroad, we're grateful fer the help. Here's a small token of our gratitude.
