==Walkthrough==
===Part 1===
*Speak with Octavien as a 90+ Rune Fencer to start the quest.
**You must zone after completing Endeavoring to Awaken.
**You no longer need to be a Rune Fencer after the initial conversation.
*Talk to Gaddiux at (J-10), near the Inventors' Coalition in Western Adoulin, to learn you must find Yestin-Ovestin.
** If he gives you the Trial blade for the trial WS quest Rune Fencing the Night Away, talk to him another time to receive the dialog about a smith. Zoning is not necessary.
*Head to (I-4) by the Adoulin Waterfront in Western Adoulin, and just past Kongramm, there is an alley way with an Inconspicuous Barrel. Click it for a cutscene with Yestin-Ovestin.
*Check the Tomato Vantage Point in the Arboretum in Rala Waterways (E-10).
**The fastest way is from the Rent-a-Room waypoint in Western Adoulin). From there, head south-east and down the ramp.
*Upon meeting Jerra Ndala, ask her about the sword and the items needed.
*Trade either a Sowilo Claymore or an Elixir to the Tomato Vantage Point to get a Rune saber. 
*Ask for Frost-encrusted flame gem to receive a Flask of fruiserum.
===Part 2===
*Obtain an Ifritite before heading off to Moh Gates via the Morimar Basalt Fields Frontier Station (run south into Moh Gates).
**You do not need to be a Rune Fencer for the Fight.
**You must go through a Colonization Reive at I-7 of Moh Gates to get to the Molten Rift.
*Trade Ifritite to the Molten Rift at (K-8) for a cutscene.
*Check the Molten Rift again to spawn the NM Staumarth. 
**Refer to Talk:Staumarth for testimonies.
*Defeat it to obtain a Frost-encrusted flame gem from the NM.
**As long as you have finished the CS by trading Ifritite to Molten Rift, you can join a fight that is in progress and still obtain the Frost-encrusted flame gem.
**If you die, or the you lose hate on the NM, it will return to the Molten Rift and despawn.
***Checking the Molten Rift again will cause it to spawn once more (so it is possible to wipe, regroup, and spawn the NM again without having to reobtain a Flask of fruiserum).
**You won't need to touch the Molten Rift again; if you do, you will pop another Staumarth.
*Return to the Inconspicuous Barrel at (I-4) in Western Adoulin for a cutscene.
*Check the Inconspicuous Barrel the next game day. You will find a note Yestin-Ovestin left.
*Talk with Octavien (I-8 East Adoulin) to receive the Beorc Sword.
