Walkthrough

Talk to Brutus in Upper Jeuno who will give you three Aquafloras (key items) to put in some Underground Pools in Fei'Yin.

You can be on any job from here on.

There are 3 pools in the lower area of Fei'Yin at H-8, H-5 and F-5. When F-5 is inspected, Dabotz's Ghost appears. He can cast Tornado and does a variety of black magic, Smash Axe can stun it. It is possible for anyone else with BST AF2 finished up to this point in the party to obtain the cutscene after Dabotz's Ghost is defeated.
It is possible for Dabotz's Ghost to spawn at the 2nd pool, and fished out and killed, just make sure you use up all of the Aquafloras.
After he dies, inspect the pool again, watch a cutscene, inspect the other two pools in that area if you didn't get them on the way in.
Go back to Brutus (This is a very short dialogue, like just one line.)- if you skip this step you will NOT get the collar from the chest (not Coffer).
Next go to Castle Oztroja and kill Yagudo Conquistadors, Priors, Lutenists and Zealots for an Oztroja Chest Key. Most of the spawns are in the basement but you can find a few chest key mobs located in the huts niched into the upper level of the outside ledges. Find a chest, trade key and you'll get a Beast Collar. (Chest can be picked by THF to receive the Beast Collar)
Trade the collar to the opo-opo Tebhi who spawns in the basement area. You should be able to spot him on Widescan. NOTE: once you trade, he disappears and you are finished, you do not need to wait for it to respawn (15 mins).
Head back to Upper Jeuno and talk to Brutus one final time to receive the Beast Gaiters.

It is possible to solo the Yagudo for the Oztroja Chest Key at level 52 with either jug pets, or, at this map, by charming the Oozes in the pond in the middle square.

Client: Brutus (Chocobo Stables, Upper Jeuno)
Summary: Many animals conscripted during the war did not return. Brutus wants you to put their souls to rest.
