Hands of Healing

is a White Mage Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward.
==Journal==
* Raya–O informs you that she and A–Ruhn have conceived a plan to deal with the taint. Go and fetch Eschiva from Fallgourd Float, that they might share the particulars with everyone.
* Eschiva is surprised that the Seedseers still wish to see her in spite of her earlier display. Deciding that she may have been too quick to judge them, she agrees to come with you to Camp Tranquil.
* Much to Eschiva's relief, her words have reached Raya–O and A–Ruhn; the two Seedseers have resolved to leave the Twelveswood in order to help you purge the taint. With their heightened sensitivity to aether, they believe they can ascertain the site of Alaqa's experiment. Make your way to the Dravanian forelands, where you last saw Alaqa, and join Eschiva and the Seedseers at Tailfeather.
* Shortly after arriving at Tailfeather, A–Ruhn senses an anomaly in the aether emanating from the northwest. A cavern called Mourn lies in that direction, along with a water vein, and the party decides to investigate it. Brave the dragon-infested area and search for Alaqa.
* Deep within the cavern of Mourn, you find Alaqa just as she completes her experiment─an undead dragon whose existence is sustained by the taint. Upon confronting her, the Au Ra justifies her actions as self-preservation: her tribesmen have suffered much at the hands of the ignorant, and she desires but to protect them. Having said her piece, she unleashes her pet upon you, but you succeed in overcoming it and purifying the taint which gave it life. With her dreams of vengeance thus shattered, all of the fight goes out of Alaqa.
* Though Alaqa must answer for her crimes, Raya–O offers her words of hope for the future. Watching on from a distance, A–Ruhn resolves to do as A–Towa–Cant once did and go wheresoever his powers are needed, be it to the ends of the world. With gratitude, he accepts Eschiva's offer to accompany him as he embarks upon his journeys.
* The two Seedseers shall see the misguided Au Ra given over to the Wood Wailers. Afterwards, Raya–O bids you and Eschiva come to see her and A–Ruhn at Camp Tranquil, that they might properly thank you for your services to the Twelveswood.
* You bid Eschiva farewell as she departs with A–Ruhn. Together with her siblings, Raya–O vows to continue preserving the harmony of the forest, protecting it from threats both within and without. With your newfound powers, go forth and shine the light of succor and solace across all the realm.

Rayaosenna 	[Player Name]! We have conceived a plan to deal with the taint!
Rayaosenna 	We would share the particulars with everyone; might I trouble you to fetch Eschiva?
Rayaosenna 	She will have returned to Fallgourd Float, I believe.
Rayaosenna 	Pray return here after you have notified her. A–Ruhn and I shall be waiting.
Rayaosenna 	We have conceived a plan to deal with the taint. Pray fetch Eschiva from Fallgourd Float, that we might share the particulars with everyone.
 	
Eschiva 	Oh, it's you, [Player Name]. I must apologize for my earlier display.
Eschiva 	The Seedseers wish to see me despite the disrespect I showed them? Though their ways baffle me, it cannot be denied that they care for the forest. Perhaps they deserve more credit than I give them.
Eschiva 	I will go, of course. Let us strike out at once.
 	
Aruhnsenna 	We each of us must do our part to protect the forest.
Rayaosenna 	Worry not─I shall keep my tongue in check.
 	
Rayaosenna 	Our thanks for coming. Without further ado, let us begin.
Aruhnsenna 	After our last meeting, I went to the Guardian Tree and presented the tainted flesh to the great one.
 	
Aruhnsenna 	His reaction was telling─the befouled aether it bears is identical to the taint which now threatens the Twelveswood. Unless we stop Alaqa, the forest will be reduced to a wasteland of death.
Eschiva 	[Player Name] gave me to understand that you have conceived a plan to deal with the taint. What is this plan?
Rayaosenna 	Simply put, A–Ruhn and I shall accompany you to the Dravanian forelands.
Rayaosenna 	As you are doubtless aware, we Padjals are chosen by the elementals to convey their will. Should that will go unheard or be misinterpreted, harmony would be lost and tragedy inevitably befall.
Rayaosenna 	In order to prevent this, we strive to hone our sensitivity to the elementals far beyond the limits of ordinary men. And this sensitivity allows us to perceive even the slightest fluctuations in the aether.
Rayaosenna 	With our faculty for sensing aether, A–Ruhn and I shall ascertain the site of Alaqa's experiment. And once we find it, we will join our powers to [Player Name]'s and purge the taint once and for all!
Eschiva 	You would leave the forest? But what of the will of the elementals?
Aruhnsenna 	Rest assured we have obtained the Elder Seedseer's permission. Our sister shall see to it that the elementals do not go unheard during our absence.
Aruhnsenna 	But above all, your words struck home. We will not leave the two of you to bear the burden alone. We shall do all we can to aid you, as Padjals and white mages both.
 	
Eschiva 	You truly mean to leave the forest and help us?
Eschiva 	In the heat of the moment, I forgot myself and spoke out of turn. I pray you can forgive me.
Rayaosenna 	There is naught to forgive. On the contrary, we are grateful to you for opening our eyes. Now, I trust we can rely upon you to guide the way?
 	
Rayaosenna 	Listen, [Player Name]. This will be our first time outside the forest, and we will most certainly make fools of ourselves. I would thank you not to enjoy yourself overmuch!
Eschiva 	I shall escort the Seedseers to Tailfeather. Pray meet us there.
 	
Rayaosenna 	With our powers combined, there is no taint that we cannot purge. Let us make for the Dravanian forelands at once!
 	
Eschiva 	Pray leave the escorting of the Seedseers to me. I shall see you at Tailfeather.
Rayaosenna 	I-I am doing just fine, thank you for asking! There is nothing to it!
Aruhnsenna 	That everything should be so different...
 	
Rayaosenna 	So here we are at Tailfeather. Why, the journey here wasn't nearly as daunting as I expected. I daresay we could have made it without Eschiva!
Aruhnsenna 	Bold words coming from someone who fairly hugged our guide during the entire journey.
Rayaosenna 	Ahem! S-Seeing as we are here, we ought to get to work! Do you sense anything, Brother?
Aruhnsenna 	I do─an anomaly in the aether that wrenches the stomach... It emanates from the north and west.
Eschiva 	A cavern lies in that direction─Mourn, 'tis called. And if memory serves, so too does a water vein. It seems to me that is where we must go.
Eschiva 	I must warn you all, though, that the area is thick with dragons. We must proceed with caution.
Rayaosenna 	D-Dragons, you say? Well, I for one would welcome the excitement! The journey thus far has been rather dull for my tastes!
Aruhnsenna 	Dull suits us just fine, Sister. Remember, our priority is to purge the taint.
Rayaosenna 	As if I would forget! The fate of the Twelveswood is at stake! Let us make haste to Mourn and confront Alaqa!
 	
Eschiva 	The cavern of Mourn lies to the north and west. The area is home to dragons, so let us proceed with caution.
 	
Alaqa 	So, you are still alive.
Alaqa 	Most intriguing─horns such as I have, yet you are not Au Ra... Well, whatever you are, you are no different from the others. You have come to interfere with my experiment. But know this: it is your ignorance that has led us down this path.
Alaqa 	We Xaela are nomads who roam and live off the land. My tribe was no different. Yet though we did no harm to those whose lands we traversed, they treated us as vermin. In their ignorance, they feared us, and that fear manifested as spite and violence.
Alaqa 	My loved ones and I were cursed at, spat upon, beaten, and worse. It was out of the desire to protect them that I began my research. Such pain we have suffered, I swore that I would visit upon the ignorant masses a hundredfold!
Alaqa 	And soon I shall fulfill my goal, for my experiment has finally borne fruit!
Alaqa 	To be sure, there is still work to be done; such robust flesh cannot be sustained by ordinary aether. Nay, it must needs be fed something far more potent─the taint.
Alaqa 	My pet can go only where the taint exists, and so I shall fill the whole world with it!
Aruhnsenna 	S-Sister! I sense naught but befouled aether from that dragon!
Rayaosenna 	This is without a doubt the source of the taint. We must needs purify it whole!
 	
Alaqa 	You would get in the way of my vengeance? Then you shall be the first to feel my wrath!
 	
Aruhnsenna 	We all of us can accomplish far more than we dare imagine.
Eschiva 	With the taint eliminated at the source, the Twelveswood is safe again.
Alaqa 	No...
Alaqa 	My dreams... All gone to dust...
Alaqa 	I am powerless─powerless to protect my people, powerless to change anything...
Rayaosenna 	We are cowards, all of us. That which we do not understand instills fear within us, and so we lash out. In return, you sought to strike back at those who hurt you.
 	
Rayaosenna 	You have done terrible things, and must be held to account for your crimes.
Rayaosenna 	But know that it is not too late to make amends. You still have a chance to atone.
Rayaosenna 	Your knowledge may yet be used for good. You need but find a new purpose, and I should be glad to help you look for it.
Aruhnsenna 	With Alaqa apprehended, it seems safe to say that danger to the Twelveswood is past. And we owe it all to the two of you.
Aruhnsenna 	This experience has taught me much and more, not least of all how powerless I was in the face of an external threat.
Aruhnsenna 	If I am to protect the forest, I must needs spend less time with my head in the treetops and more with my feet on the ground. To that end, I shall strive to be a Padjal as Master A–Towa was, standing ready to journey to the ends of the world if needs be.
Aruhnsenna 	Were it not for your shining example, I never would have found the courage to come to this decision. I cannot thank you enough.
Eschiva 	Master A–Ruhn. When the time comes for you to embark upon your journey, pray allow me to accompany you.
Eschiva 	It isn't safe to travel alone, you know this to be true. Besides, you need someone to keep a record of all your deeds, that they might be passed on to future generations.
Eschiva 	For all my bold words, I am still but a green sapling. Nevertheless, I would serve you faithfully as my grandfather once served Master A–Towa.
Aruhnsenna 	I should be heartened to have your company, Eschiva. I shall endeavor to be a Padjal worthy of your respect.
Eschiva 	Thank you, Master A–Ruhn! I swear you'll not be disappointed in me!
 	
Alaqa 	A new purpose...
Rayaosenna 	A–Ruhn and I shall escort Alaqa and place her in the Wood Wailers' care. Pray come and see us afterwards at Camp Tranquil─we would thank you properly.
 	
Rayaosenna 	A–Ruhn and I shall escort Alaqa and place her in the Wood Wailers' care. Pray come and see us afterwards at Camp Tranquil─we would thank you properly.
Aruhnsenna 	You have given me the courage to make a change. I cannot thank you enough.
Eschiva 	I shall soon depart with Master A–Ruhn. I'm glad for this opportunity to see you again.
 	
Rayaosenna 	During the entire way back, Alaqa did not so much as favor us with a glance, but neither did she attempt to flee.
Rayaosenna 	I believe there is hope for her yet. Till such time as she finds a new purpose, I shall visit her cell as often as my duties allow.
Rayaosenna 	With the source of the taint banished, the great one's warnings have ceased. We may rest easy for a time.
Rayaosenna 	Disaster has been averted thanks to you and Eschiva. We are eternally in your debt.
Eschiva 	You are kind for saying so, my lady, but I have done scarcely anything. All your gratitude should be reserved for [Player Name].
Eschiva 	Allow me to thank you as well, [Player Name]. Had you not sought me out that day, I may never have found my true calling.
Eschiva 	Beginning today, I shall accompany Master A–Ruhn as he works to maintain peace and harmony within the Twelveswood.
Eschiva 	I know not where our journeys will take us, but when next we meet, I shall stand before you a stronger woman!
Aruhnsenna 	We had best be on our way. Fare you well on your own journeys, [Player Name]. I look forward to seeing you again, within the Twelveswood and without!
Rayaosenna 	Well, they pretty much exhausted everything I had intended to say...
Rayaosenna 	So I shall say but this: I mean to do my part as well. Together with my siblings, I shall work to preserve the harmony of the forest, protecting it from threats both within and without.
Rayaosenna 	As for you, [Player Name] of the white─with your newfound powers, pray continue employing our art for the betterment of the realm!
Rayaosenna 	May the light of succor and solace shine wheresoever you may go!
Quest complete.	Quest complete.
