Walkthrough

Cutscene Portion

• Speak with Waoud in Aht Urhgan Whitegate at (J-10) as Blue Mage. Ask for a divination by selecting "Gaze away." option. He will inform you that "Your fate lies beyond the gate of nobility".

• Note: 1000 gil will be deducted from you as with any other divination.
• Go to the door labeled Imperial Whitegate at (L-8) in Aht Urhgan Whitegate, and check it for a cut scene.
  • You may receive the cutscene to receive Trust: Nashmeira. You can get the Trust and then check the door again.

• Before progressing be sure to have one of the following to access Alzadaal Undersea Ruins: Remnants Permit, Captain Wildcat Badge, Runic Portal Use Permit, or 1 Imperial Silver Piece.

The remainder of the cutscene portion may be broken down into two possible routes. THERE ARE 2 CUTSCENES ON THESE ROUTES.

Nashmau Route

• From Nashmau exit at (H-8) East Exit.

• Head South towards the telepads to trigger the first cutscene.
• Take the West telepad and head south to trigger the second cutscene.
  • High level Apex Archaic Cogs have been added to this room. They are level 140-150 and aggro True Sight. Stick to the right side of the room to easily avoid them.

• The fight must be done only once for everyone at this stage of the quest.

Like the first portion, this may be broken down into two possible routes.

The Remaining AF

After checking the Imperial Whitegate and receiving the first cutscene you can speak to Lathuya to begin the process of having the remaining three artifact pieces crafted. Each piece requires materials and Imperial currency. When trading these items to Lathuya, trade the Synthesis Materials first, then trade the respective fee to her second. The pieces are:

Magus Bazubands

Magus Shalwar

Magus Jubbah

• Note: After trading the proper materials and fee to Lathuya you will have to come back on the following game day, as well as have zoned during the subsequent game day, in order to receive your Magus armor piece. Furthermore, you will have to wait one day (Vana'diel Time) after you receive your Magus piece before you can have the next Magus piece crafted.
