Memento Mori (Final Fantasy XIV)

is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
==Journal==
* Gairhard has once again named you as his carpenter of choice and requested that you craft an oak composite bow. Beatin speculates that the bow is for Gairhard himself, and will therefore settle for nothing less than absolute perfection. Craft a quality oak composite bow and present it to the timbermaster.
* Despite his best efforts, Beatin is unable to find flaw with your craftsmanship. Thus satisfied, he bids you deliver the bow to Gairhard at the Adders' Nest.
* Somewhat surprised by Beatin's presumption, Gairhard explains that the bow you crafted is intended for another archer under his command. The captain still wields the same maple longbow that the timbermaster crafted for him many years ago. Return to the Carpenters' Guild and speak with Beatin.
* Beatin displays mixed emotions upon learning that Gairhard still carries his old longbow. He muses on the revelation briefly, before remembering your presence and subsequently dismissing you.
※The next carpenter quest will be available from Beatin upon reaching level 45.
==Objectives==
* Present an oak composite bow to Beatin.
* Deliver the oak composite bow to Gairhard.
* Report to Beatin.

Beatine 	[Player Name], you minx/devil! If I didn't know better, I'd say Gairhard was smitten with you.
Beatine 	He's given you another commission─this time for an oak composite bow. In case you were unaware, such a bow can only be wielded by a master archer, with years upon years of experience in the field.
Beatine 	Don't you see? You are to craft a bow for Gairhard himself!
Beatine 	You are to give this commission your undivided attention, [Player Name]. While simply crafting an oak composite bow is no small feat, I will not permit you to present anything less than perfection.
Beatine 	Have I made myself clear? Good. Now, go.
 	
Beatine 	Only perfection will suffice, [Player Name]. If you have it, then show me.
Beatine 	Even experienced carpenters can find constructing a composite bow to be a daunting task, given the complexity of the design and the variety of materials required.
Beatine 	But the resulting product is well worth the price.
Beatine 	This union of wood, bone, and sinew possesses the power of a self bow more than twice its size.
Beatine 	This makes it ideal for archers who must travel with minimal supplies and cannot afford to carry heavier equipment.
Beatine 	No matter how much I search, I cannot find flaw with your craftsmanship. Your materials, your execution...it is all, for want of a better word, perfect.
Beatine 	It comforts me to know that Gairhard will wield this formidable weapon. Deliver it to him with my blessings.
 	
Gairhard 	Greetings, [Player Name]. I believe you have a delivery for me?
Gairhard 	Now this is a fine bow, worthy of the Bowlord himself! The girl will be pleased.
Gairhard 	What's that? Beatin thought this was for me? Oh no, this is for another one of my archers.
Gairhard 	I have a perfectly serviceable bow which has served me for many years. Beatin ought to know─he made it.
Gairhard 	Ah, those were the days. He the young initiate, I the aspiring Serpent. He wasn't always so damn cocksure, you know. Back then, he was full of doubts and questions...
Gairhard 	The maple longbow he made me might not look like much to you, but to me it's the perfect weapon. I intend to use it until the day I die.
Gairhard 	Not that I intend to die any time soon, of course! Now then, I believe I have a delivery of my own to make. If you'll excuse me, [Player Name].
 	
Beatine 	Welcome back, [Player Name]. Was Gairhard well?
Beatine 	What!? He still uses that longbow I made as an initiate?
Beatine 	I didn't think he kept it...
Beatine 	But a Twin Adder captain deserves a far finer weapon. I should offer to craft him a new one.
Beatine 	“Until the day I die.” Hmph. What nonsense.
Beatine 	Surely that longbow is no more than a mangled stick at this point. If it were to break during battle, he would only have himself to blame.
Beatine 	Ugh, but I cannot stand idly by while he... <sigh> No, no, I will give this no more thought. He is an experienced soldier; he would never be so reckless...
Beatine 	Oh! I did not realize you were still here, [Player Name]. You may go. I have nothing else for you today.
Quest complete.	Quest complete.
