-
The recruitment notice: In Hugel, read the recruitment sign at (91,152). The Shrine Expedition department is hiring helpers for the Odin Shrine. Then visit the expedition offices: Alex works in the Schwarzwald office and Laura in the Rune-Midgarts office. Both bosses ignore you until you have read the sign. The offices are inside the building you enter at (52,90) in Hugel (map hu_in01).
Sign: -
Pick an expedition team: From base level 60, talk to Alex at (19,161) and say you saw the notice, or talk to Laura at (14,11) and say you will do it. Alex tells you to look at the shrine first. Laura admits she cannot pay and sends you there as well. Pick one team. Laura's version: refuse the pay once, then say 'Alright, I'll do it.' Alex's version: ask your questions, then say 'Yes, I do.'
Alex: -
A ride to the shrine: Take the ferry to the Odin Shrine. The Boatman at (209,109) in Hugel charges 800 zeny for the trip over. Look around the shrine, then come back with the same Boatman at (93,146) on the island. The ferry fare is 800 zeny. You can only sail on if you have already picked a team.
Boatman: -
Report back: Go back to your boss and say you have seen the shrine. Alex wants 5 Runes of Darkness for a start; Laura wants the same 5 runes and hints at a prize from her private collection. Alex or Laura, whoever you chose. Alex: ask your questions, then say 'Yes, I do.' Laura: say 'Yes!'
-
Runes of Darkness: Take the ferry to the shrine again and collect 5 Runes of Darkness there. Bring them to your boss, who rewards you with an Old Blue Box. Ride the ferry again after the errand is given: the quest only moves on after that trip. Brought fewer than 5? The boss sends you away and asks again. Reward: 1 Old Blue Box.
-
A spy for Laura: If you worked for Alex, talk to Laura at (14,11): she hates the other office and asks you to spy on it. If you worked for Laura, talk to her again after the runes. Either way, say you will do it. Laura asks again until you agree; any of the four answers is accepted.
Laura: -
Listen at the door: Laura says to put your ear to the door. Walk to (15,108) in the office building and listen to the Schwarzwald team: Alex and Julian argue about something buried near Hugel.
alex: -
Report what you heard: Tell Laura what you overheard. Tell her about Giantes or Ymir's Heart and give any answer for what Ymir's Heart is. She sends you back to the Odin Shrine to check its inner island. Choose 'Giantes' or 'Ymir's Heart'; 'Nothing' ends the talk with no progress. Walking up to Ashe at (16,21) on the way is not needed.
-
The inner island: Return to the Odin Shrine and cross to the inner island (map odin_tem03). One of five glowing spots, at (266,302), (288,271), (283,241), (179,275) or (320,264), is open at a time; step on it to be carried to a ruin. Only one spot works at a time and it moves to a new place after each use. If none is open, wait a little and look again.
warpinside: -
A shining stone: In the ruin, explore the half-buried shrine at (35,29). Each try has a one in three chance of finding a shining stone among the ruins. Pick it up: the ground gives way. Choose 'Explore' each time you step there, until the stone appears; 'Ignore' leaves it and you try again.
- Out of the ruin: You come to at (163,31). Walk to the far end of the ruin at (163,178); a second shaft throws you back to the inner island of the Odin Shrine. Nothing else is in that ruin.
- The office fight: Go back to the expedition office in Hugel: the office door now leads to a new hall. Talk to Laura at (159,84): she has found out about Ymir's Heart and accuses Alex of hiding it. The two start a brawl. The door at (52,90) in Hugel and the entrance at (174,90) both lead to this hall.
- The file: Talk to Ashe at (162,85), who picks up Laura's file. She asks you to take it to her comrade at the south gate of Morocc and hurry. Walking into Ashe at (171,90) works as well.
- The south gate of Morocc: Go to the south gate of Morocc (field map moc_fild12, around (160,365)). A hidden contact tells you not to turn around: hand over the file and ask what you like. He tells you about Secret Wing and Rekenber. Walk onto the spot and listen; both questions give the same reward. Reward: base EXP 100,000.
