The Collective Annals of Gwynham and Enid Ironheart

The Collected Annals of Gwynham and Enid Ironheart
Involved in Quest: An Explorer's Footsteps

The accurate and detailed maps left to Vana'diel by Gwynham Ironheart and his daughter Enid are the basis of the maps used today, but their chronicles of their travels are of interest to many also. Chiseled onto Stone Monuments across the length and breadth of Vana'diel, the diaries are here presented in their entirety.

South Gustaberg Monument ''I've been a sailor for over forty years, yet I cannot grasp the concept of the world as a whole. Then again, those who live in cities know even less than I. They are content knowing only of the things around them. I cannot blame them for choosing to live this way, as curiosity is, more often than not, a dangerous trait.''

'' But I have sworn to use the rest of my life-- a life I had once thought lost when I was ship wrecked--To indulge this insatiable curiosity of mine, and to uncover the truth of Vana'diel. ''

''I have decided to leave my first message here, on this hill over looking my homeland of Bastok. It is the first record of a journey that I hope will benefit all the peoples of Vana'diel.''

--Gwynham Ironheart, 748 Crystal Era.
