Unleash the Beast

is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker.
==Journal==
* Disappointed that his favored creation seems fated to become cattle, Kleon asks you to look over the io for any changes he might make. Surely it wouldn't take much to transform this hulking beast into an apex predator...
※Please note that the difficulty of this quest has been synced to your current level.
* You carefully inspect the io, noting its flaws and possible improvements before making your report to its anxious creator. Apparently inspired by your advice, Kleon rushes off to make adjustments, and you are left to wait alongside Alkaios and Maira for his return.
* Kleon eventually appears with his new and improved io─a beast which now greatly resembles the monster you know as a “behemoth.” Satisfied that his creation now qualifies as a dominant form of wildlife, Kleon leaves you in the company of Alkaios and Maira as he departs for Amaurot to begin work on his next concept.
* Both Alkaios and Maira thank you for your help with their visitor. It seems your intervention was instrumental in salvaging Kleon's promising-yet-flawed creations. You wonder, however, what good will come of unleashing a behemoth-like beast upon the world...
==Objectives==
* Inspect the io.
* Wait at the designated location.
* Speak with Maira.

Alkaios 	Here in Elpis, we only observe subjects worthy of evaluation as decided by the Bureau of the Architect. Kleon should be proud of his work.
 	
Maira 	It's heartening to see the io warm up to you so readily. She's always so timid around the observers.
 	
Kleon 	Please, [Player Name]─I have need of your worldly experience.
Kleon 	My io, my darling, hulking io... She was meant for more than grazing in the fields.
Kleon 	Will you look her over, and tell me what must be done? How can I transform her from potential livestock to apex predator?
 	
Alkaios 	The initial design has flaws, but Kleon's passion for improvement is to be commended.
 	
Maira 	Kleon is very protective of his “children,” isn't he? I'm very curious to hear the results of your assessment!
 	
Kleon 	Please tell me you have some suggestions. I would hate to see my io relegated to the rank of cattle...
 	
Kleon 	What say you? How can we enhance the deadliness of my creation?
What will you say? 	
* Cut back on the horns and the hair, and let her bring those fangs and claws into play!
* An apex predator should wield apex magicks. Something like “Meteor,” for example.
Kleon 	Yes! Deceptively simple, but devastatingly effective! I can already picture it...
Kleon 	Alkaios, Maira, will you permit me to implement some new ideas? [Player Name] has given me much to think about.
Alkaios 	Strictly speaking, any significant adjustments should be authorized by the Bureau of the Architect...but I think we can allow some temporary modifications for the purposes of experimentation.
Kleon 	That sounds more than fair, thank you! If you could spare a few more moments, I shall take my creation and return with a new and improved io!
 	
Alkaios 	You make me wonder, [Player Name]...are you truly a familiar? Your thoughts, your behaviors, they resemble ours far too closely.
 	
Maira 	After living for years on end, our creativity tends to stagnate, I feel. Your revelations come as such a welcome breath of fresh air.
 	
Maira 	Kleon has been gone for more than “a few moments.” How extensive could these changes of his possibly be...?
Kleon 	It is done!
Alkaios 	Kleon, you... Well, you've certainly been busy, haven't you?
Kleon 	[Player Name]'s advice began the process, and then it became difficult to stop!
Kleon 	After pruning back the horns and hair, I reinforced the talons, then moved on to arcane ability. She can now cast Meteor, as well as Charybdis. Surely now my io stands at the pinnacle of predators?
Alkaios 	In all my time as an observer, I have seen many a creation. But this...this concept ranks in the highest echelons. The strength inherent in your io is more than sufficient to ensure its domination.
Kleon 	Wonderful, then I shall submit my refinements to the bureau at once! But I think, perhaps, this new incarnation requires a new name...
Kleon 	And I know just the familiar to bestow it. [Player Name], have you a fitting title for this glorious creature?
What will you say? 	
* "Behemoth" seems apt.
* "Queen Behemoth"...
Kleon 	Ah, perfect! So it shall be known─at least for now. I still need to submit the official registration.
Kleon 	And now the time has come for me to return to Amaurot. I've decided that my next creation will be more of a companion─a pet, if you will─suitable for the amusement of children and very clever familiars.
Kleon 	Thank you all again for this most productive visit! I hope I might impose upon you again soon?
Maira 	We always enjoy hosting visitors with such enthusiasm for their work.
Alkaios 	Yes, and we very much look forward to observing your future concepts.
Maira 	Well, Brother. [Player Name]. Shall we head back to Poieten Oikos?

Alkaios 	You did well, [Player Name].
 	
Maira 	What a wonderful help you were with our visitor, [Player Name].
Maira 	Even for a familiar of Azem, I cannot help but be impressed by your intelligence and unique sense of creativity.
Alkaios 	I wholeheartedly agree. Your intervention salvaged some promising but unfortunately flawed creations.
Alkaios 	You have our gratitude for providing us with such a fascinating experience.
Maira 	Oh, Alkaios, must you always be so formal? Although he has trouble expressing it, I assure you, my brother is absolutely giddy with joy.
Maira 	Thank you again, [Player Name]. While I'm sure your duties as a familiar keep you occupied, you are more than welcome to visit us whenever you wish.
Maira 	Thank you again, [Player Name]. While I'm sure your duties as a familiar keep you occupied, we would very much welcome another chance to share your company.
Quest complete. 	Quest complete.
