Quest giver Anaoc
in Lower La Noscea
Anaoc explains an old pact: the sea for Limsa, the underground for the kobolds. He says a pact means nothing if it ruins them, so they must strike first. He likes Arenlona
's bait plan, then asks you to seek Baderon
's help getting Yellowjacket guards.
From Niniya
's second prank to a strike on the kobolds in the Blind Iron Mines; their hoarded crystals point to Titan
. Branch: Kobolds Ahoy.
A 7-quest arc (Ch. 2): kobold raids lead to a strike in the Blind Iron Mines, and their hoarded crystals point to Titan.
deems a confrontation with the kobolds imminent. is convinced that the peace is untenable, and that recent kobold incursions justify a preemptive attack. Arenlona of the Dawn Meadow will brief you on the stratagem. posits that, since prolonged famine has driven the kobolds to raid the Stead for foodstuffs, they can be baited out. Speak to Anaoc about preparing the lure. directs you to Skarnmhar
, who can supply you with dodo meat from an unshipped consignment.
waits by the southern mouth of Blind Iron Mines to instruct you where to set the crate of meat. that the mines are clear of kobolds. at the Drowning Wench to see what can be done to fortify the Red Rooster Stead for the trials ahead. recognizes that, in their zeal to summon Titan, the kobolds have been amassing crystals through increasingly violent means. He will speak with the Yellowjackets about a dispatch to defend the Red Rooster Stead, but it will matter little should Titan awaken.Remember the name Titan. The kobolds are storing up crystals to summon this god. Baderon warns that defenses will matter little if it wakes. For now, the story says no more about this threat.
The Company of Heroes is not gone for good. Later, former members of the Company tell the Scions about an aetheryte. It teleports straight into Titan's holy place.
The lines worth a second look, in the order you hear them, and what each one means.
An' there won't be a Company of 'Eroes around to answer our prayers this time, neither!
Remember the 'Company of Heroes' that Baderon mentions. They were hired fighters who fought Limsa's battles against primals. They broke up after the Calamity, and now there is no one like them.
An old peace deal gives the sea to Limsa and everything underground to the kobolds of O'Ghomoro. Anaoc's 'preemptive attack' shows how weak that deal has become.
People say Titan, the Lord of Crags, was summoned by kobold prayers. In them, the kobolds asked their god to let them win this very fight over land.
Baderon's proverb uses Eorzean weights: 1 ponze is 16 onzes, just as 1 pound is 16 ounces. So the ponze and the onze take the place of the pound and the ounce.
Remember the name Titan. The kobolds are storing up crystals to summon this god. Baderon warns that defenses will matter little if it wakes. For now, the story says no more about this threat.
The Company of Heroes is not gone for good. Later, former members of the Company tell the Scions about an aetheryte. It teleports straight into Titan's holy place.
The title twists the phrase 'bait and switch'. That is a trick where you tempt someone with one thing, then hand over another. Here, you bait the kobolds with meat and then swat them.
Who they are, and what they do in this quest.
Baderon is at the Drowning Wench and has not yet heard how bad the kobold trouble at the Stead is.
Baderon calls the pact a farce that only bought Limsa time. He is sure the kobolds hoard crystals to summon their god, Titan. With no Company of Heroes to save them this time, he offers to ask the Yellowjackets to guard the Stead.
Anaoc has seen the kobolds take up arms against the Stead, and he believes a fight with them cannot be avoided.
Anaoc explains an old pact: the sea for Limsa, the underground for the kobolds. He says a pact means nothing if it ruins them, so they must strike first. He likes Arenlona's bait plan, then asks you to seek Baderon's help getting Yellowjacket guards.
Skarnmhar is at the Red Rooster Stead, which is getting ready to strike back at the kobolds.
Skarnmhar happily gives you dodo meat for the bait and calls the deal a bargain: dead dodo for dead kobolds. He sends you to K'wabati, south of Blind Iron Mines, who knows where to set it.
Arenlona of the Dawn Meadow is the one Anaoc sends you to for a plan against the kobolds.
Arenlona is glad Anaoc has dropped his naive hope that the kobolds would calm down alone. Arenlona explains that kobold numbers have grown and food is short, so hunger drives their raids. The plan: set food as bait and let hunger undo them.
K'wabati waits by the southern mouth of Blind Iron Mines to show you where to set the bait for the kobolds.
K'wabati is glad the Stead has not "turned chicken". She tells you to find a good hiding spot and open the crate of meat nearby. She says the kobolds follow their noses and see you too late.
The game was written in Japanese and rewritten, not just translated, for each language. Here is what the other versions say, next to the English.
| Japanese | シダーウッド紛争 ‘The Cedarwood Conflict’ |
|---|---|
| French | Guet-apens dans les mines ‘Ambush in the Mines’ |
| German | Kampf den Kobolden ‘War on the Kobolds’ |
The mines of O'Ghomoro aren't enough for the native nuisances of northern Vylbrand anymore. They've come to claim what is ours.
Le territoire de ces hommes-bêtes se trouve pourtant dans les alentours de l'O'Ghomoro, le volcan situé au nord de cette île.
‘Yet the territory of these beastmen lies around O'Ghomoro, the volcano in the north of this island.’
Anaoc and Baderon both make the kobolds' home a volcano. The English speaks only of its mines.
The mines of O'Ghomoro aren't enough for the native nuisances of northern Vylbrand anymore. They've come to claim what is ours.
Die Kobolde nennen O'Ghomoro im Norden der Insel Vylbrand ihr Königreich, doch in Wahrheit sind sie nichts weiter als Wilde.
‘The Kobolds call O'Ghomoro in the north of the island of Vylbrand their kingdom, but in truth they are nothing more than savages.’
German has Anaoc sneer that the Kobolds claim a kingdom but are mere savages; English calls them nuisances.
Long ago, our war-weary forebears struck a shortsighted peace with the kobolds: what lay beneath the sea was to be Limsa's, what lay underground was O'Ghomoro's.
Celui-ci stipule que “ce qui est sur la mer fait partie de Limsa Lominsa, ce qui est sous terre fait partie d'O'Ghomoro”.
‘It states that "what is on the sea belongs to Limsa Lominsa, what is underground belongs to O'Ghomoro".’
Trotzdem trafen unsere Vorfahren mit ihnen eine Übereinkunft. Limsa Lominsa sollten die Schätze des Meeres gehören und O'Ghomoro die Schätze der Berge.
‘Still, our ancestors made an agreement with them. Limsa Lominsa was to have the treasures of the sea, and O'Ghomoro the treasures of the mountains.’
So Limsa gets what is ON the sea, the waves, while the English gives it the seabed.
The old pact splits riches, not seabed and underground.
Yet what resolved one conflict created another, as the sea cannot fully feed, clothe, and shelter the children of land. Realizing this, the kobolds tacitly condoned the Lominsan settlement of La Noscea. We shared an unspoken agreement.
Lange Zeit ging das gut und die Kobolde ließen die anderen Völker, die in La Noscea leben, in Ruhe.
‘For a long time that went well, and the kobolds left the other peoples living in La Noscea in peace.’
English says the solution to one conflict created another; German says it went well for a long time.
But now, the kobolds aggressively assert their dominion, threatening our very survival.
Nous pourrions tous continuer de vivre en paix, si certains de ces hommes-bêtes n'avaient pas commencé à s'aventurer hors de leur territoire montagneux et ne s'en prenaient pas à des exploitations sans défense comme la nôtre.
‘We could all go on living in peace, if some of these beastmen had not begun venturing out of their mountain territory and attacking defenceless farms like ours.’
French blames only some Kobolds and says peace could otherwise continue; English blames the Kobolds as a whole.
So, Anaoc has at last abandoned the naive hope that the kobold menace would abate of its own accord.
コボルド族との対決とは、アナオク爺さんも思い切ったな。いや、私もいつかはやらねばと思っていた。我々が開拓を進める以上、ぶつかるのは必定だったのだ。
‘A showdown with the kobolds? Old Anaoc has made a bold call. Mind you, I too had thought it would have to be done someday. So long as we keep clearing new land, a clash was bound to come.’
Arenlona blames the farm's own growth, not just the kobolds.
So, Anaoc has at last abandoned the naive hope that the kobold menace would abate of its own accord.
Wir dürfen die Kobolde nicht länger ignorieren, sonst betrachten sie uns als hilflose Opfer, die sie nach Lust und Laune ausplündern können.
‘We must not ignore the Kobolds any longer, otherwise they will regard us as helpless victims whom they can plunder as they please.’
German argues that ignoring the Kobolds makes the settlers look like helpless prey; English mocks Anaoc's naive hope.
Their numbers have increased manifold as they expand southward. The food shortages spurred by overpopulation quicken the cycle of aggression.
Es sind viele, aber daraus resultiert auch ihre Schwäche - Nahrungsmangel.
‘There are many of them, but that is also the source of their weakness - food shortage.’
English says food shortages quicken their aggression; German calls the food shortage their weakness.
A common beggar would know better than to expect foodstuffs aboard a stagecoach bound for the Stead, but the filthy scamps grow desperate.
Malheureusement pour eux, c'était un convoi de vêtements et d'outils agricoles...
‘Unfortunately for them, it was a convoy of clothes and farm tools...’
Wahrscheinlich hatten sie es auf Essen abgesehen, als sie die Karawane in der Nähe der Mine überfielen, doch ihre Beute bestand nur aus Werkzeugen und Kleidung - praktisch, aber nicht gerade lecker.
‘They were probably after food when they attacked the caravan near the mine, but their loot was only tools and clothing - practical, but not exactly tasty.’
だが、都市からの荷物は、農具や衣服ばかり……今頃、地団駄を踏んでいるだろう。
‘But the cargo from the city is nothing but farm tools and clothes... they must be stamping their feet right now.’
English jokes a beggar wouldn't expect food on a Stead-bound coach; French says it carried clothes and tools.
English jokes a beggar wouldn't expect food on a Stead-bound coach; German jokes the loot was practical, not tasty.
English jokes a beggar wouldn't expect food on a Stead-bound coach; Japanese says city cargo is just tools and clothes.
I hand dead dodo to you, and you kill kobolds for me? A bargain if I ever heard one!
Anaoc hat sich endlich dazu durchgerungen, etwas gegen die Koboldplage zu unternehmen?
‘Has Anaoc finally brought himself to do something about the kobold plague?’
アナオクさんが、コボルド族との対決をついに決意したか！
‘So Anaoc has finally resolved to confront the kobolds!’
English frames it as a trade, dead dodo for kobolds killed; German asks if Anaoc finally resolved to act.
English frames it as a trade, dead dodo for kobolds killed; Japanese says Anaoc finally resolved to confront the kobolds.
I hand dead dodo to you, and you kill kobolds for me? A bargain if I ever heard one!
よしきた、とびきりのを出すぜ。
‘Right you are, I'll bring out the very best I've got.’
Japanese has him promise his very best meat; English jokes about trading dead dodo for dead kobolds.
Good to see the Red Rooster Stead hasn't turned chicken on us.
Les gens de la métairie se sont enfin décidés à faire face à ces saloperies de Kobolds.
‘The people of the farm have finally decided to face those rotten Kobolds.’
Na, endlich setzt sich die Gockelburg gegen die Kobolde zur Wehr!
‘Well, at last Gockelburg is standing up to the kobolds!’
……なるほど、農場がついに立ち上がったか。
‘...I see, so the farm has finally risen up.’
Je vais t'aider de mon mieux.
‘I'll help you as best I can.’
Die kleinen Plagegeister haben uns schon ganz schön zugesetzt.
‘The little pests have already given us quite a hard time.’
うちらも協力するよ、奴らには頭にきてるからね。
‘We'll help too, since we're fed up with them.’
English puns that the Red Rooster Stead hasn't turned chicken; French says the farm finally decided to face them.
English puns that the Red Rooster Stead hasn't turned chicken; German says Gockelburg finally fights back.
English puns that the Red Rooster Stead hasn't turned chicken; Japanese says the farm has finally risen up.
French has no rooster-chicken pun; she curses the Kobolds and offers her help outright.
German has no chicken pun; she says it was about time and that the Kobolds plagued her people.
Japanese has no chicken pun; she offers the miners' help because they are fed up with the Kobolds.
I don't know what we'd have done without you...which makes me wonder what we will do once you've gone.
Je me dis toutefois qu'il vaudrait mieux renforcer la protection de la métairie.
‘Still, I think it would be better to strengthen the farm's protection.’
Wir müssen die Verteidigung verstärken.
‘We must strengthen our defenses.’
農場の警備を見直すべきときかもしれんのう。
‘It may be time to review the farm's security.’
English wonders what they will do once you've gone; French thinks the farm's protection should be strengthened.
English wonders what they will do once you've gone; German says they must strengthen their defenses.
English wonders what they will do once you've gone; Japanese says the farm's security may need reviewing.
It is no secret the Yellowjackets pay him heed. Mayhap he would put in a word, so that the Stead might procure their protection.
Der alte Thekenhai hat einen guten Draht zu den Gelbjacken und kann vielleicht dafür sorgen, dass sie uns Verstärkung schicken.
‘The old bar-counter shark has the Yellowjackets' ear and may be able to get them to send us reinforcements.’
With „der alte Thekenhai“, 'the old bar-counter shark', Anaoc teases Baderon, the innkeeper the Yellowjackets listen to. The English just says 'him'.
'Twas wishful thinkin' to believe the mine rats would stay put in O'Ghomoro.
So weit in den Süden haben sie sich also schon ausgebreitet.
‘So far into the south they have already spread, then.’
なるほどな……奴らの南下は、そこまで進んでいたか。
‘I see... so their push south had gone that far.’
English scoffs that hoping they'd stay put was wishful thinking; German is surprised they have spread so far south.
English scoffs that hoping they'd stay put was wishful thinking; Japanese is surprised their push south went so far.
Any barkeep can tell ye as rodents're wont to spread. This wave just comes sooner than reckoned.
Die Kobolde sind ein Wilder Stamm, der seit jeher das Gebiet O'Ghomoro im Norden der Insel Vylbrand beherrscht.
‘The kobolds are a beast tribe that has always ruled the O'Ghomoro region in the north of the island of Vylbrand.’
もともとコボルド族ってのはバイルブランド島の北部、オ・ゴモロ一帯を支配している蛮族だ。
‘The kobolds are originally a beast tribe ruling the O'Ghomoro area in northern Vylbrand.’
English says any barkeep knows rodents spread; German says the kobolds have always ruled O'Ghomoro.
English says any barkeep knows rodents spread; Japanese says the kobolds are a beast tribe ruling O'Ghomoro.
Ye can be sure they're 'oardin' crystals to summon Titan, an' gods 'elp us if they do.
Le fait que ces hommes-bêtes viennent s'aventurer de plus en plus profondément au sud pourrait indiquer qu'ils cherchent à obtenir des cristaux pour invoquer leur Primordial, Titan.
‘The fact that these beastmen venture ever deeper south could indicate that they seek crystals to summon their Primal, Titan.’
Gerüchten zufolge suchen die Kobolde nach Kristallen, um damit ihren Primae Titan zu beschwören.
‘According to rumors, the kobolds are searching for crystals to summon their primal Titan.’
おそらくは奴らの蛮神タイタンを再召喚するため、より多くのクリスタルを求めているんだろう。
‘Probably they want more crystals in order to summon their primal Titan again.’
English is sure they're hoarding crystals for Titan; French says their moves only could indicate it.
English is sure they're hoarding crystals for Titan; German presents it as a rumor.
English is sure they're hoarding crystals for Titan; Japanese says it is probably so.
Limsa'll look back on these petty thefts an' skirmishes as the good ol' times when that day comes, I tell ye!
Si nous les laissons faire, ce ne sont probablement pas que les Limséens qui en paieront le prix...
‘If we let them, it probably won't be only the Limsans who pay the price...’
Das könnte das Ende von Limsa Lominsa bedeuten!
‘That could mean the end of Limsa Lominsa!’
このまま奴らの専横を許し、コボルド族の蛮神タイタンが復活してしまったら……リムサ・ロミンサにどれだけ被害が出るか、想像もつかん。
‘If we let them do as they please and the kobolds' primal Titan is revived... I can't imagine how much damage Limsa Lominsa would suffer.’
English says Limsa will recall these petty thefts as the good old times; French says not only Limsans will pay.
English says Limsa will recall these petty thefts as the good old times; German says it could mean Limsa's end.
English says Limsa will recall these petty thefts as the good old times; Japanese says Limsa's damage is unimaginable.
An' there won't be a Company of 'Eroes around to answer our prayers this time, neither!
La Fratrie des gabiers, à qui nous devons l'exploit d'avoir terrassé Titan autrefois, n'existe plus, malheureusement.
‘The Brotherhood of Topmen, to whom we owe the feat of slaying Titan long ago, sadly no longer exists.’
Topmen are sailors who climb the rigging to work the sails. So «la Fratrie des gabiers», 'the Brotherhood of Topmen', is a seafaring name for the Company of Heroes.
An' there won't be a Company of 'Eroes around to answer our prayers this time, neither!
Das Heer der Helden, das Titan bei seinem letzten Auftreten mit Mühe und Not besiegen konnte, wurde ja leider aufgelöst.
‘The Army of Heroes, which only just managed to defeat Titan at his last appearance, has unfortunately been disbanded.’
German says the heroes barely beat Titan last time and were then disbanded; English only says they won't be around.
An' there won't be a Company of 'Eroes around to answer our prayers this time, neither!
かつて蛮神タイタンを倒した傭兵たち、「海雄旅団」も、今はいないのだからな……。
‘After all, the mercenaries who once defeated the savage god Titan, the “Sea Heroes Brigade”, are no longer around...’
Japanese says they were mercenaries who once defeated Titan, called the Sea Heroes Brigade; English only names the Company.

You've seen with your own eyes how the kobolds have taken up arms against us.
The mines of O'Ghomoro aren't enough for the native nuisances of northern Vylbrand anymore. They've come to claim what is ours.
Le territoire de ces hommes-bêtes se trouve pourtant dans les alentours de l'O'Ghomoro, le volcan situé au nord de cette île.
‘Yet the territory of these beastmen lies around O'Ghomoro, the volcano in the north of this island.’
Anaoc and Baderon both make the kobolds' home a volcano. The English speaks only of its mines.
Die Kobolde nennen O'Ghomoro im Norden der Insel Vylbrand ihr Königreich, doch in Wahrheit sind sie nichts weiter als Wilde.
‘The Kobolds call O'Ghomoro in the north of the island of Vylbrand their kingdom, but in truth they are nothing more than savages.’

‘We could all go on living in peace, if some of these beastmen had not begun venturing out of their mountain territory and attacking defenceless farms like ours.’
French blames only some Kobolds and says peace could otherwise continue; English blames the Kobolds as a whole.
Adherence to a pact is meaningless if it means our demise. It comes time for us to take a stand. Seek the wisdom of Arenlona to learn how.
So, Anaoc has at last abandoned the naive hope that the kobold menace would abate of its own accord.
コボルド族との対決とは、アナオク爺さんも思い切ったな。いや、私もいつかはやらねばと思っていた。我々が開拓を進める以上、ぶつかるのは必定だったのだ。

We need only set the bait, and their hunger will be their undoing. Tell Anaoc to make the arrangements.
Ingenious. We'll trap the hungry kobolds as one would any rodent.
And I know just the bait to set. Tell Skarnmhar to set aside some dodo meat from our next shipment.
Set a bit of that in Blind Iron Mines and the little gluttons won't be able to resist.
I hand dead dodo to you, and you kill kobolds for me? A bargain if I ever heard one!
Anaoc hat sich endlich dazu durchgerungen, etwas gegen die Koboldplage zu unternehmen?

Once you've found a good hiding spot, open the crate of meat nearby. The kobolds will follow their noses; by the time they see you, it'll be too late.
Haha, you've done it! I expected no less.
I don't know what we'd have done without you...which makes me wonder what we will do once you've gone.

I was hoping you might visit the Drowning Wench and speak with Baderon.
It is no secret the Yellowjackets pay him heed. Mayhap he would put in a word, so that the Stead might procure their protection.

So the Stead's in over their 'eads with the kobolds, are they?
'Twas wishful thinkin' to believe the mine rats would stay put in O'Ghomoro.

The pact was a farce─no 'andshake ever solved a blood feud. We just needed to lick our wounds a while is all.
