Walkthrough

• As a Red Mage, go to Curilla located in Chateau d'Oraguille.
• Go to Sharzalion located in the Lion Springs Tavern (K-5)/(K-6) Southern San d'Oria (near the Mog House).
• Head towards Fei'Yin located in Beaucedine Glacier.
• After zoning into Fei'Yin, a notorious monster named Miser Murphy will spawn near the Dry Fountain at (H-8) on the first floor. He is a ghost type NM with an occasional additional effect of drain on his regular melee attacks. This drain can do upwards of 600 damage to a player, restoring the NMs HP in the process. Miser Murphy cannot be bound easily. This can be a very hard fight, however, it is possible to solo as a 75 NIN/DNC by keeping your shadows up as much as possible, you my also bring a healer to be extra safe. [NOTE] This fight was very easily soloed on 85SAM/NIN.

• When he is killed, Miser Murphy drops an Antique Coin. Trade this coin to the Dry Fountain for a cutscene.
  • Note: You don't have to be RDM in order for Miser Murphy to spawn. He can be killed by any job as long as the quest is started while you're on RDM.
  • Blue Mage's Head Butt Stun appears to have no effect.

• Return to Southern San d'Oria and speak to Sharzalion in the Lion Springs Tavern. Then speak with Daggao, the Galka down by the stage to the right.
• Head to Garlaige Citadel with a party of four. Immediately past the Banishing Gate #1, there is an Oaken Box in the first room to the left. Select this box to spawn Guardian Statue.
  • Note: If you wish to avoid the four-player switch for Banishing Gate #1, access the Cavernous Maw in Sauromugue Champaign (S) and re-enter the Citadel from the present.
• Once defeated, the Guardian Statue drops a Nail Puller. Trade the Nail Puller to the Oaken Box for a cutscene.
  • Note: Like his counterpart, Miser Murphy, he only drops one Nail Puller at a time.
  • Note: You do not have to be Red Mage to get the cutscene or to spawn Guardian Statue.
  • Note: Zoning out of Garlaige Citadel after receiving the Nail Puller, but prior to trading it to the Oaken Box, will reset the pop conditions for the Guardian Statue. Re-examination of the Oaken Box (even with the Nail Puller item in inventory) will then cause the Guardian Statue to respawn and attack. If you zone out for whatever reason prior to getting the CS with Rainemard, and re-enter, trade the Nail Puller without examining the box. (see discussion)
• Zone into Northern San d'Oria for the final cutscene and your Warlock's Chapeau. (Zoning from your Mog House may not trigger the cutscene. One person had to zone from Southern San d'Oria to trigger the final cutscene. Another was able to trigger it after coming in on the airship, zoning into the MH in Port San d'Oria, and then zoning out of the MH into Northern San d'Oria. Zoning in via Ease of Exploration will trigger the cut scene).
